Emma & Lorenzo Trattoria

Wonderful, family service, and pays attention to the customer. When I had to step out to take a call, the waiter asked my dining partner if she'd like to wait for me and he put in my order as soon as I walked back inside.
Quaint, charming atmosphere, and the food and wine selection is amazing. The first time I've had fried zucchini flowers since Italy and it was just as I remembered!

Food was delightful, authentic, and delicious. I will be taking my first trip to Italy later this year, and I will be disappointed if the food doesn't taste just like it does at this restaurant. However, the service was a disservice to the food. The server was by himself in this busy dining room, which made him simultaneously impatient and slow. This restaurant would be better over Door Dash.

Everything was amazing, such a quaint space with authentic Italian feel. The food was simple but delicious and flavorful. We came in late and expected to feel rushed but the staff was so welcoming! Will definitely be back!

One of the best Italian restaurants in south Florida. Carciofi alla
Romana and Saltimbocca alla Romana are spectacular. I’ve been dreaming about these dishes. Can’t wait to go back. Thank you Emma !! You’re amazing

A Hidden Gem in North Miami Beach!

Emma and Lorenzo is a true treasure. From the moment you walk in, you feel the warmth and charm of an authentic Italian experience. The food is absolutely outstanding—flavorful, beautifully presented, and clearly prepared with passion.

The wine list, though small, is thoughtfully curated and pairs perfectly with the menu. Every detail feels intentional and personal.

A special mention to Enrique, the owner—welcoming, kind, and genuinely committed to making every guest feel at home.

Whether you're a local or just passing through, make sure to visit Emma and Lorenzo. This place deserves to be on everyone’s list.

This Trattoria is definitely a great addition to the neighborhood.

The ambiance is very nice and all the staff is friendly and attentive. The food is good and very tasty. Prices are not too expensive but depending on what you order.

The wine list is simple but has some good wines.
The one thing that needs attention is the speed at which the dishes come out once you have ordered. It is a bit slow.

Nice restaurant and great staff.

I truly appreciate that the owners and chef are authentically Italian, which is key when you're offering a real Italian trattoria experience. The food is absolutely amazing, and the warm, cozy ambiance makes it feel intimate and family-like. The service is outstanding, and the Italian servers add an authentic touch, making the entire experience even more special.

This was, by far, the worst and most overpriced carbonara I’ve ever experienced. It was so bad that I ended up throwing it straight into the garbage. The pasta was incredibly overcooked, to the point where it was mushy and unpleasant to eat. The pancetta, which is supposed to add richness and depth, was burnt and bitter, completely ruining the dish. From the very first bite, the flavor was off-putting, and I couldn’t bring myself to take another. For the price I paid, I expected something at least edible, if not delicious, but this was an absolute disaster. It’s a huge disappointment, and I would never order from here again.
In addition, this place charged you services fee for takeout food.

The quality of the Italian cuisine was incredible! (porchetta and carbonara)

the server was very friendly.

i recommend this place for real Italian food?

This Italian restaurant in Miami is simply the best. The food is delicious, authentic, and full of flavor. The family-friendly atmosphere transports you to Italy, and the customer service is impeccable, just like being in an Italian trattoria. A must-visit spot!
