The dessert menu is most definitely the best I have found in Surfide,Florida. If you should find yourself are visiting Surfside, this should be a MUST VISIT restaurant.“

“Food was really good. Calamari and shrimp were 10/10. Penne a la vodka was pretty good too! Espresso martini was 10/10. Leonardo was wonderful, attentive, and kind. Great service fun music. Eating outside was great! Decently priced Italian!“

“Absolutely delicious! Our friends recommended this restaurant, and we’re so glad they did. The food was fantastic, every dish was full of flavor and beautifully presented. Lizzie, our server, was a highlight of the experience with her kind, cheerful, and efficient service.

What stood out to me as a guest was the positive atmosphere, not a single unhappy employee in sight! You can even see into the kitchen, which is a big plus for me. The whole experience felt genuine and welcoming.

We’re definitely coming back - just make sure you have a reservation because this place is popular for all the right reasons!“

“Melania amazing server, she recommended the most amazing pasta for me and my girlfriend loved.“

“Best Italian restaurant in Miami“

“I think they're all great“

“The best sandwiches in Miami. Delicious and healthy“

“Boia De is very special. Bold flavor with a delicate execution. The staff are humbly proud of their accomplishments and the Michelin Star is well deserved. The smoked muscles were delicious you need them. Steak tar-tar you must have. The gnocchi will change your life and the lamb could alter they ways of man & possibly change the world. No liquor needed here. Creative mixology with sake & Pilsner will make you happy. Desert a must… buy 2. Or 3.. Love from Mary & Peter“

“I had heard about this hot restaurant from New York that I must try, but was reticent to do so because Carbone was the name of a character from Goodfellas that Robert Deniro's Jimmy Conway whacked when tying up loose ends after the Lufthansa job! Poor sap was hanging frozen in a meat locker. I'm glad I put that imagery aside because this place was amazing! Platitudes like wonderful ambience, fine service, flavorful food, great family style dining, are all applicable but just don't capture the full spirit of the evening. From the pickled cauliflower, to the signature spicy rigatoni ala vodka (which pairs nicely with their pinot noir offering Presqu'ile), to the Caesar salad (you must have those croutons!), and their delicious Italian petit-fours, everything burst with flavor and was resplendent of the authenticity of old Venice. And since you will be spending more than a few pennies here, one must luxuriate in the mid century environs replete with Murano glass chandeliers while being serenaded with a sound track of Italian crooners like Mel Torme and Frank Sinatra in the full bela canta tradition. If you have a special occasion, Carbones Miami Beach will make for a memorable evening.“

“We found this place walking around and Agata was our server. She is so friendly and nice person, she was the reason we stayed more and ordered more drinks and definitely we will come back just to get amazing service from her. Nice music and atmosphere from this place ?“

“I had an incredible experience here! The gluten-free pizza was absolutely delicious—one of the best I’ve had. The service was outstanding, and Lenka truly went above and beyond to make the evening memorable. Her attention to detail, friendliness, and professionalism were exceptional. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for great food and amazing service!“

“Server Sylvia was exceptional! Recommended fettuccine bolognese her style with red peppers. It was fantastic!! Atmosphere was 4 star because music to loud for our liking. Would definitely recommend and dine again.

“This is a lovely authentic Italian restaurant. They welcomed us with big smiles. The food and service were great. We had a wonderful overall experience. We truly like our waiter Francesco very much. He was very attentive and kind. Husband and wife from Sarasota, FL“

“Off the charts! 5 stars is the very least I could do!

As we were without reservations, we were seated at the bar. What a turn of events and absolute treat this turned out to be! This was quite literally a chef's table experience!

The staff here is just so kind, warm and inviting - they most certainly hotel right here. We were literally showered in warm hospitality!

Non-alcoholic drinks were made to my imagination and the pasta was so, so comforting and good! As a finer dining sister restaurant to the wonderful Eating House, we should have expected nothing less!

Chef, Anna, Danny, Oliver and Alex we can't thank you all enough! We are grateful for this experience and will be back for a repeat!“

“Absolutely delicious. Tried the chefs tasting menu and it was an amazing culinary experience. Best polenta I have ever had, and dbranding was perfection.

Very delicious food and the server and staff were very friendly and make you feel at home. Great place that feels like you are in Italia.“

“The service was great and the food was delicious!“

“Awesome food ! Incredible atmosphere!!!“

“The place is elegant and relaxed. The service is good and pleasant. The food was quite good. However, the negative part was that they served 2 dishes to a table of 6 and 25 minutes later the other 4 dishes, even though they apologized for a place of this level, this is intolerable. The price is quite high.“

“Excelente servicio y experiencia !! Michelle fue muy amable y cordial ! Amamos ir a Divieto Aventura ❤️“

“espectacular 👌 me encantó“

“Restaurant is family friendly. Felt the pizza was soggy and not crispy though it was thin. Tried the Crocce and it was ok (tasted like a ball of mashed potato and crispy outside coating like arancini balls). Salad was fresh but nothing unique.“

I will definitely stay here again when I'm in Miami.“

“I ordered the mussels and bolognese. The mussels were outstanding!! I would come back to La Locanda just for that alone. The bolognese was good too…pasta was completely fresh but the sauce could have been more flavorful. Great service. Overall a good experience here. Aperol Spritz was excellent!“

“3/17/24 8:45:54 PM Today I was introduced to a hidden gem in Sunny Isles-ART PRIORI RESTAURANT…I was taken by a friend Elina, who is familiar with one of the owners family. We were seated quickly by the hostess. We were able to sit in the open air patio area which was great especially on a beautiful day. We were brought water and fresh bread very quickly. The menu is multi-european in its choices. We ordered several delicious appetizers, I especially loved the Tuna Tartar which was creatively presented and served atop of an avocado base-I thoughly enjoyed the combination…my friend’s favorite was the Beef Tartar and we ordered a creatively composed salad of mixed green, fresh sweet pears, feta in a light dressing-it was perfect. I appears the menu continues to evolve from what I’ve read. Our bill did not include an automatic gratuity. The décor eclectic, polished yet inviting… The owner is clearly an art lover…its evident in the décor and the artful food presentation. The prices are in the average range for this area. Our service was excellent, very accommodating yet not hovering. Easy parking right outside their entrance. All in all a delightful afternoon. I’ll be returning and I recommend.“

“Great ambiance, special flavors exploding on your palette with every bite, perfect service, live music that isn't cheesy, wow to the wine list. Will be a place I visit often. Great job
