The Toughest Reservations In Miami Right Now (And How To Get Them) - Miami - The Infatuation

"Verdict: Carbone is not really a restaurant. It's a pasta theme park for the social media generation. And like so many tourist attractions, it's overpriced, needlessly difficult to book, and prioritizes appearance over everything else. Still, the red sauce performance here has its charm, and if you're simply dying to see it for yourself (and OK with eating at an odd weekday hour) go for it. Just manage your expectations. Carbone reservations have gotten slightly easier to find since it first opened—although mostly on weekdays at 5pm or 10pm. You may be able to find a slightly better table (especially during summer) if you check Resy 30 days in advance precisely at 10am. Don’t bet on being able to walk in. They'll probably turn you away and possibly be a little mean about it." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino
