"Luca Osteria on pedestrian-friendly Giralda Avenue is the brainchild of Miami native and Chopped champion Giorgio Rapicavoli. This cozy spot reimagines classic dishes with playful touches: think bites of fried potatoes topped with truffle Parmigiano fonduta, black truffle, and egg yolk, or pasta al limone brightened with pistachios. Must-order dishes include the tuna caprese with local stracciatella and the cheeky “Pasta alla Tucci” that features caramelized zucchini and creste di gallo pasta, a nod to none other than Italophile Stanley Tucci himself. The spruced-up versions of Italian-influenced aperitifs echo Rapicavoli’s inventive approach. Between Luca Osteria and other projects (Eating House, Mayfair Grill, the Grape Ape), this chef certainly has his hands full." - Allison Ramirez
