Narbona Coconut Grove

Ignacio! Was an amazing server! He was attentive, quick on his feet, and gave great recommendations! He was quick to ask if everything was good with our food and if there was anything else we needed or if anything was missing! Narbona is one of my favorite restaurants to go to in coral gables! 100% recommend restaurant and Ignacio! Great night!

We love coming here the cool vibe and relaxed atmosphere make it one of our favorite spots. The food is always excellent, from the restaurant to the gelato counter and even the little shop with its carefully selected products. The staff are truly professional and welcoming. This morning Ignazio at the bar served us one of the best cappuccinos we’ve had in the area and made us feel so cared for with his kindness and professionalism. We’ll definitely be back soon!

This time I went just for the ice cream… and I’m so glad I did! Hands down the best gelato in town. Great variety of flavors, friendly service, and fair prices. I’ll definitely be coming back! To try the food and gelato again for sure 👌🏻👌🏻!!

We’ve been here for lunch with my family. Not only the food is amazing but the service is superlative. David our waiter was nice, smiling, efficient and friendly. He speaks multiple languages. We will come back forsure.

It’s a beautiful restaurant and café with a warm, inviting atmosphere. The service is attentive and friendly - special thanks to Daniel, our server, who went above and beyond to ensure we had a great time. That said, the food could use some improvement. My lobster risotto was quite salty and lacked depth of flavor. The lobster shell was not completely removed, making it a bit of a hassle to crack and peel. While no wet tissues were provided, the waitress quickly found a solution by moistening napkins with water, which I appreciated. Overall, I enjoyed the service and ambiance, but there’s room for improvement on the food presentation and taste.

Met a friend for dinner. He picked the place. The restaurant is really nice and the staff was very friendly. Our waiter Melissa was really nice. The restaurant also has a market of gourmet products. We were not so hungry so we ordered several starters to share and a bottle of white wine. Everything was quite good. We had the "Two is Better" (chorizo and morcilla), Artichokes and Empanadas. I liked the artichokes and the empanadas better

Absolutely loved this place! The food was fresh and flavorful — you can tell everything is made with care and quality ingredients. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, perfect for a relaxing meal or catching up with friends or family. Special thanks to our server Valeria, who was genuinely warm, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. Her service was top-notch, professional yet personal. We’ll definitely be coming back!

such a lovely and beautiful restaurant. Very relaxing and nice atmosphere. Such great taste. My husband and I ordered the picanha guacha. SO GOOD!!! Amazing flavor and so soft. Great serving for $33 bucks. The fries and the sauces were great too. They have nice little store inside to buy things like gelato and macaroons

This place has amazing food -- but the ice cream? Nothing beats this gelato. Definitely a hidden gem. The flavors, the texture, and the service will keep you coming back again and again.

The "best empanada" as the menu suggests is not quite the best imo. It was a bit dry and needed some flavor. I asked for chimichurri sauce and it took a bit to get it. The seating outside was lovely and breezy. The gelato is always a must. The Dubai chocolate and banana caramel were delish.

This was our second time at Narbona. The first time we can with friends and had a fun experience. This time we had shrimp and crab ravioli, skirt steak and fries, and a few drinks. Everything was very good. I definitely recommend the skirt steak. Tends to be a lot of families (it is The Grove), but it's still a great time. We didn't have room for dessert, but there are some good options.

Ambiance Narbona in Coconut Grove is a very classy restaurant. The place is nicely decorated. The waitresses are very well mannered and dressed elegantly. Service was excellent. Crowd Mostly Classy people dressed casual but classy. Food Excellent. I had "Chivito Uruguayo", Uruguayan goat. It was a huge Cataluñan bread,sandwich with mortadella cheese, ham, bacon, beef tenderloin, lettuce and tomatoes, and topped with eggs sunny side up. It included a serving of French fries. It was delicious. The only thing negative was that the music was too loud.

I met up for a weekday dinner here with a friend who lives in the Grove. Narbona is located in the ground floor of Cocowalk, cattycorner to the location of the Italian spot I took plenty of dates to during my college years and early 20's. Besides a restaurant, there's also an Italian market and gelato shop. The restaurant space is open, subtly lit and perfect for a nice dinner date. Service was casual but relaxed. Acoustics could be a little better, especially if there's a large group at a nearby table. Foodwise, my bruschetta was airy and with just the right amount of crispiness to be enjoyed with the EVOO and rich Modena Balsamic Vinegar. My Tagliatelle Ragout, just past al dente, was a delicious ball of pasta filled in with a subtly smoky bolognese & melted cheese. The portion size was about as full as the flavor. I am taking a star off for my wine. There were only a few wines by the glass, and the pinot I had was a little flat. However, spiked with a dash of liqueur and a fluffy cocoa powder, the creamy tiramusu was a great closing dish and I'd certainly recommend.

This place is magic. Does not look like much or even that big from the outside but it is a world inside. Divided into little open sections, you have a restaurant, coffee shop, bakery, pattiserie, charcuterie, fromagerie, Gelato store and market. The staff is friendly and helpful. The menu is delightful: originally from Uruguay they have a variety of local dishes along with French and Italian that I could spot. We had the short rib empanadas and meat emapanadas at the coffee bar, and also ordered a hazelnut latte. I just have to say, that was one of the best coffees I've had made... perfectly creamy, balanced sweet and rounded. The emapanda was delicious, very filling and we'll seasoned. I can't wait to go back and try the different areas, plus I hear their ice cream, which is homemade, is delicious.

We came here for breakfast but upon seeing Narbona's pizza oven and dinner menu, I am hoping to come back! But for us, our group had a delightful breakfast. Servers kept our coffees and matcha lattes coming quickly. The açaí bowl was absolutely delicious, as were the yogurt/granola bowls. Narbona is definitely on my to-return list for a classic Italian dinner!

My friend and I came in to try the Spice menu but unfortunately it was during that gap between 4 and 6 that the spice menu wasn't available. That's ok. We sampled some dishes from their main menu and they were spectacular. We tried the special of filet mińon and pappardelle pasta in a cream sauce that was not heavy or overpowering and a crab ravioli with shrimp on top in a pink sauce. Very noteworthy dishes. And how can I forget the amazing beet and mandarin with goat cheese topped with micro greens to start. Great flavor combinations, especially the dressing on the side. We tried the grilled octopus but that one dish I've had better. Service was spotty. We had to ask a few times to refill our waters and look for her to ask for a few things here and there instead of her coming to our table but nothing too bad. The only strange thing is there is no bathroom in the restaurant. You literally need to step outside of the restaurant and use the Coconut Grove public restrooms. Not a far walk but just random. They have a really cute market in the restaurant with packaged items to take home and desserts. All in all I'd like to return and try some other things off their menu. The food really was good!

So we decided to take a little time and hangout in Coconut Grove today surrounded by all my girls! Help!!!! Actually, we had an awesome time and OREO was along for the ride today. After checking out Salty Straw for some ice cream, I really wanted to get some coffee so we decided to head over to Narbona which is an awesome Uruguayan restaurant here in the Grove. I can honestly say that the coffee was excellent as I decided to have a latte but man the Entraña steak the young woman next to me at the counter was having looked amazing. After a little conversation, I confirmed my suspicions as she said it was cooked to perfection and all the accouterments were amazing as well. Will definitely need to come back to check out the rest of the menu. I also have to say that all the staff were very nice and attentive as well. Sitting at the counter is always awesome if you want to chill and chat with others. Give it a try and you may make a friend! Wishing you all nice outing in Coconut Grove!

The special Chilean sea bass was good. The rice was fine. I wish I got the pasta because the pasta looked amazing.

This place is cute! Love the decor of a little Italian or local market. This review is for the delicious gelato only, plenty of options. Flavors are on point. Fast service and friendly staff. This is the place for a sweet treat!

My wife and I love this spot. We randomly decided to eat there a few months ago as we were walking around the grove. It was definitely a great decision. It's a cool style, it's Argentine & Uruguayan. The food is amazing, and the bread is to die for! They have a nice wine list, and also a little market in the back! The service is decent, I've never been disappointed. It can be a little expensive but it's worth it in my opinion

Oh. My. Goodness. This is a gem of a place. Absolutely gorgeous Uruguayan gastronomy. They have everything: A shop with imported French and Italian goods, incredible bakery, winery, elegant restaurant, pizzeria, ice cream bar, even sushi! The staff was very friendly, helpful and professional. We came here for the empanadas per suggested by a friend and the server encouraged us to try their short rib empanadas. I think I did and went to heaven. I also ordered a hazelnut latte- best coffee I've had in my life. I'll be coming back!

I love the setup, lighting, feel and atmosphere of any of the Narbona markets. They really know how to marry the concept of a market and an open kitchen restaurant. All the offerings are excellent...from baked goods to soups to salads, to their grocery items. Their jams and oils are top notch quality. Stop here or at any of the other locations when you get a chance, you will love it.....

The food here was absolutely delicious--truly one of the best Italian restaurants I've ever been to. We ordered the Bolognese, charcuterie board, mussels, and octopus, and everything was bursting with flavor. Each dish was thoughtfully prepared and beautifully presented. The service was outstanding--attentive, warm, and knowledgeable. The interior is stunning, with a cozy yet upscale atmosphere that really elevates the dining experience. And don't skip the dessert bar--they have a great selection of gelato and treats that perfectly cap off the meal!

We stumbled upon this gem in Coconut Grove and were so pleased we returned the next day too! The ambiance is bright and inviting and the service is great also. We came for a quick breakfast before a meeting we had in town and this felt like dining at someone's home. The coffee drinks were fresh - I had a decaf cappuccino and my friend had a latte. We both ordered the croissant sandwich with eggs and bacon and avocado with a fresh salad on the side. What a delicious and healthy meal. Will absolutely return the next time I'm in the Grove.

It was a Sunday and Coconut grove was packed for brunch. My friends and I decided to give Narbona a try for brunch. We were quickly seated. The service here is always on point ! I ordered the croissant egg sandwich. Over all it was decent. It wasn't the best though. I think that this spot is more of a spot for pasta. It was a decent brunch. But I wouldn't come back here again for brunch. Only for the pasta or gelato. The coffee was a 6/10. The price was average prices. Overall a classy vibe in coco walk. Good for families . I want to come back for the pasta for dinner !

Unfortunately they changed the recipe for our favorite empanada, the milanesa and meat was way too seasoned. The manager was informed but did little to see if he could make things right. Maybe we will try again in a year, but they lost us as customers today.

Great great great great eating. I madly adore Narbona Key Biscayne - and I am just as happy at Narbona Coconut Grove. My sister - who is a demanding eater and is fussy about what she will pay for - has Narbona Coconut Grove has one of her regular reliable places. I do not disagree. I am generally a huge Uruguayan food fan ... and have yet to eat in a Uruguayan restaurant I don't like. (I have no doubt that Montevideo is filled with terrible places waiting to ambush me.) But even with my massive pro-Uruguay bias, Narbona is objectively a fine place. * * * We ordered off their Miami Spice menu. Non-Miami-People: This means an off-season specialty menu designed to bring in diners during the slow season. This is usually a prix fixe for a limited number of selections that will be cooked en masse. Generally the price is right, and they pick some of the most popular dishes on the menu. At Narbona, the price is right but they worked up a special set of unique dishes just for the occasion. So you can't have, what I had. Nyah Nyah Nyah Nyah Nyah. * * * However, a) If you are in Miami, and b) If you are reading this before September 30 2024, THEN get to Narbona Coconut Grove as fast as you possibly can. These dishes disappear in October and you don't want to miss them. * * * Rest of the review for normal conditions. a) A hallmark of a good Argentine or Uruguayan restaurant is a good house vermouth. (Here called rural vermouth for no good reason). Narbona's house vermouth is absolutely first rate. It is much lighter and more citrusy than most other house vermouths I have had. That makes it perkier and more interesting. I personally am of the savory and mellow vermouth school. But I like Narbona's alternative. When it is 98 degrees out with a humidity of 150 percent, I like Narbona's alternative even better. b) My brother in law ordered a complex house salad off the regular menu. He is an even more demanding eater than my sister. He loved his salad. * * * How would I rate the regular menu? Well, the regular menu at Narbona Key Biscayne is delightful. And places that make food to die for on their special menus are usually not too shabby on the everyday stuff. The night we ate at Narbona Coconut Grove Everybody died and went to heaven. * * * So I think a five star rating here is pretty accurate.

What a cute little gem hidden in coco walk!! It is a beautiful market and restaurant inside. I got an iced latte there from the barista, but then we sat outside! Service was kind and we got our food extremely quick. To eat: *margarita pizza- I loved it! Delicious and big pieces of mozzarella cheese! I am highly critical of sauce and there's was great! *tagliatelle ragout- great meat sauce! It was very tasty! *salmon- great choice! Wild caught. * egg croissant sandwich- my mom was in the mood for breakfast! She loved her sandwich! It has bacon and avocado and a yummy spicy mayo.

Me regalaron este dulce leche y no pude resistirme! Los croissants para el desayuno me salvan mi mañana en la oficina!

It's like you walked into the most delicious of European bakeries, ready to sit and enjoy life for as long as you would like. It is a bit unexpected as you walk in from the humidity of Miami, and then are presented with such a delightful ambience. It may have become my favorite coffee bar in the city. Everybody was so nice. From the gentleman at the entrance who held the door open for our stroller and then found a spot where we could park it away from the bustle, to the Coffee bartender who was so sweet with our daughter and doted on us as if we were million dollar clients. We only got some sweets and coffee, so we cannot comment too much about the food. But everything looked wonderful. And we were just so happy to relax in this space. We highly recommend it for locals and tourist! This is a wonderful place to come and hang.

Came here only for the gelato in the back and it was FANTASTIC. Really rich and flavorful gelato. Great serving sizes. The back also has a little cheese store, fresh pasta, and other Italian goods. But the gelato is great.

I was enchanted. I was there on a busy Saturday night . The food was great. And its location is very popular. Every restaurant should be so blessed. A place for everyone ...even the tourists and the locals to enjoy.

Such a cute spot in the grove! Loved everything about the vibe and there is a super cute market inside as well. Perfect for all your charcuterie needs or even if you just need a sweet treat. Our server was very nice and gave great recommendations. We enjoyed the French Toast and the Dos Lechugas salad and both were delicious. Good sized portions and everything was super fresh.

Service was great and they were quick to seat us! We had ordered drinks before ordering - note that the juices will come in glasses and not shots! Matcha latte was okay. The bao buns for the benedict were dry and textured as if it were sitting out for a while. the vuelve la vida was so good, I almost ditched my own meal for my husbands.

Service was good, ambience was nice and food tasted great. Three of us ordered the same pasta as it was my first time coming and both suggested this one!

Best gelato outside of Italy. Must try the pistachio flavor. Service is always great & reliable. Ambiance is charming yet substantial.

Best gelato in town. Love to stop in for a coffee or gelato and do some specialty ingredient shopping. Everyone always very welcoming. Nice place to check out if in the Grove.

They don't care much about the customer. They have a great ambience, decorations, very homey and classy style but they only care about the money. Its hard to explain. My experience is for a dine in and an order place online. And the online order of almost $300 was declined by the website but transacted by restaurant. And after 12 phone calls with no answer and finally getting through to someone, they said they'll check into this, they call me back in 10 minutes. After 50 minutes I called them and they said the transaction didn't go through. Then I wanted to place the order over the phone and the guy on the phone sounded more annoyed than me so I took my money someplace else. Food looks great, but not a wow on my taste. Sorry Narbona, focus on your customer a lot more and do have someone more attentive to the phone line and improve your website.

Terrific lunch. Pepe's 2.0 burger was scrumptious. One of the best I have ever had. Atmosphere and offerings were awesome.

Came here for the first time and I must say it was decent .... Prices were somewhat normal and we enjoyed our breakfast here .... Had a mixed drink that as very very good and wine selection is decent and prices aren't crazy .. 20% tip added to any size party (this seems to be normal now in Miami) service was decent but not great ... Place is large ... would come back again if in the area !

Narbona is located in CocoWalk and offers an exquisite culinary journey that tantalizes the senses and leaves a lasting impression. From the moment you step foot into this charming establishment, you're greeted with an ambiance that vibrates with energy and warmth. Let's dive into the menu, where the stars of the show are undoubtedly the meats. Narbona takes pride in sourcing the finest cuts, expertly prepared to perfection. Each bite bursts with flavor, showcasing the quality and dedication put into every dish. Whether you're a steak connoisseur or a lover of succulent ribs, Narbona's meat selection promises to satisfy even the most discerning palates. But the indulgence doesn't stop there. The wine list is a treasure trove for enthusiasts, featuring a curated selection that perfectly complements the robust flavors of the menu. From bold reds to crisp whites, there's something to please every palate. And let's not forget about the cocktails, crafted with precision and creativity, they add an extra layer of enjoyment to the dining experience. What truly sets Narbona apart, however, is the impeccable service provided by Dany and Gaby. Their attentiveness and knowledge elevate the dining experience, ensuring that every need is met with a smile. Their passion for hospitality shines through, leaving a lasting impression on guests. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply indulging in a night out with loved ones, Narbona is the perfect destination. With its delectable menu, extensive wine list, vibrant ambiance, and stellar service, it's a place where memories are made. I can't wait to return with family and friends to create more unforgettable moment and try more items from their menu. You can find paid parking right in the CocoWalk mall or paid parking on the street.

I recently dined at Narbona in Coconut Grove, Miami, with a party of five. Unfortunately, the overall experience did not meet expectations, particularly due to poor service. The food arrived quickly, which was appreciated, but the service throughout the meal was rushed and uncomfortable. The staff was overly eager to clear our plates, often attempting to remove them before we had finished eating. At one point, my friend had to ask them kindly to please wait until we signaled that we were done. This constant interruption detracted from our experience, as we felt pressured to eat quickly. We were there for less than an hour and a half. The waiter had difficulty understanding us, possibly due to language barriers, but his attitude came across as unwelcoming and sarcastic at times. When working in hospitality, customer service should be a top priority (I work in hospitality, so I understand firsthand) and this was not the case here. One waitress even took away our appetizer plates without asking, and when we said we weren't done, she sternly insisted that we were. Shortly after, our dinner plates were brought out. This rushed approach continued throughout the meal, with the staff trying to clear plates without asking for permission, which felt invasive. Bless the redhead lady serving water, she was kind and polite. We ordered the following dishes: Ragu Oysters Artichokes (Fried Fiori di Zucca stuffed with mozzarella cheese and anchovies) Papardelle Tagliatelle Ragout Shrimp & Crab Ravioli Asado Toto (short rib) Grilled Salmon While the papardelle was flavorful and the tagliatelle ragout had simple, good flavors, some dishes missed the mark. The fried Fiori di Zucca was mostly cheese with little to no anchovy flavor, and the short rib or asado toto was good, but the aligot was cold and too heavy for our taste (though others may enjoy it). The grilled salmon was okay, but nothing memorable. Overseasoned. I was seated near the kitchen walkway, and I was bumped into multiple times by waiters rushing through. While I am usually understanding, the combination of poor service and the rushed feel of the restaurant made the experience less enjoyable. Though the food wasn't terrible, it was not memorable either. The overall experience, particularly the service, left much to be desired.

This having been the only restaurant we have not tried in Coconut Grove we were looking forward to the night. I will start by saying you should definitely make a reservation if your going during the weekend. Which we did especially since we were a party of 6. They bring out a basket of delicious warm bread. But, don't fill up because the main courses are the stars. The main dishes that were ordered were the mushroom risotto thick, and creamy. If you like mushrooms definitely give it a try. Two of us ordered the Shrimp & Crab Ravioli, one with the pink sauce which saw light and delicious, the other with was butter and garlic, which was good but for my taste could have used more garlic. Next was the Tagliatelle Ragout which is a delicious hearty meal. If you are looking for something lighter try the Quinoa & Farro, full of flavor and just as filling. We one one dish the Spinach Ravioli that unfortunately came out cold not once, but twice. Would definitely advise to make a reservation.

Way too much noise and loud in the restaurant. The acustics are terrible. Food is ok, but we could not eaven talk with the loud music and noise.

Great food! Best gelato! Cute shop with lots of Italian specialties. I love this place.

Party of 4 without a reservation on. Friday night- host was very nice and sat us immediately. We were seated towards the back of the restaurant, which is next to the hustle and bustle of the kitchen and it was a bit warmer than the other parts of the restaurant. Our servers were very attentive. The appetizers we had were a cesar salad, fried calamari and a provoleta. Everything was tasty. We also had the Garden pizza and the Narbona pizza. Both were tasty, crust was crispy. For desert, we had the Rogel cake which was very good, but super sweet- definitely shareable.

Who knew this was tucked away in coconut grove! super cute Market style Restaurant. You've got regular table seating, seats at the bar and the desert counter, plus they have the pizza/pastry area where you watch them make some magic. service was great, food was even better. The empanadas were perfect! stuffed with meat and the pastry both fluffy and crispy. We had the burger with fries (meat cooked well and fries super crispy), and the spinach ravioli that was also cooked to perfection. pricing was a bit high as it cost us over 100 for 1 app, 2 glasses of wine and a 2 entrees. BUT, it was still very good. I would definitely come again!

They have it all here. Great Italian deli. Great Italian bakery. Great Italian ice. Great Italian provisions. Spectacular Italian restaurant. Incredible Italian service. Itsa great Italian place.

This is an all in one experience - you can sit down and eat, grab a drink at the bar, shop at their deli or market, or pick up some ice cream. It's a little bit of everything and definitely a great addition to the Grove. The vibe is very casual yet trendy and the decor is very beautiful. We stopped in for brunch and had a good experience. Our server was attentive. Our drink order did take a while longer than it should have. We enjoyed the bread basket - I had never thought of slathering dulce de leche on some toast, but darn it, it was delicious! The breakfast crossaint was pretty standard - nothing out of this world. I do believe that the menu is a bit pricey for what you are getting, then again, I do think prices are in line with other restaurants in the area. I would definitely recommend the experience and I would return to try out dinner.

My friends have been dying to go to Narbona, saying it reminded them so much of Italy. Imagine their surprise that Narbona is actually Uruguayan. But it is a pretty cool spot. All the decor coordinated with the beautiful black and white floor tiles. Charming market areas with baked goods, gelato, meats, cheeses, olive oil, you name it. I tried the organic chicken. It was a huge half chicken with a house salad and fries. Very tasty. And the bread was fantastic. And the wine. I had planned to get something yummy, but since I was standing there holding a doggie bag of uneaten food already, I just couldn't order more food. Next time...

This place is a lot of fun! Showed up on a Sunday afternoon no reservation and thankfully they were able to squeeze us in because it was packed! Loved their pizza, great portion and delicious. Their seafood risotto was incredible! And i really liked the little market they have in the back. You can buy their food premade, snacks and amazing gelato! Had a great time

I go there all the time...but this last time was a great disappointment! Food was below their standards, for all of my party of 6 ..

What an awesome little gem tucked away inside Coco walk. Great menu featuring fusion style dining. There is something for everyone on the menu. My daughter and I were craving Italian so we ordered the gnocchi and and a pastrami and sausage pizza. They had tasty baked goods as well. I purchased the croissant muffin filled with caramel. I just couldn't resist. It tasted as good as it sounds. We did explore the market located inside of the restaurant to the back and found a variety of gelato flavors and tasty Italian treats like salami, prosciutto, pasta, and cookies to take home. We enjoyed our food and our time at Norbana, will definitely recommend and will visit next time I'm in town.

I stopped by Narbona for a quick coffee and snack! There were so many good pastry options but I settled for the chocolate croissant and it did not disappoint! The coffee was also great. I will definitely be back to check out their lunch/ dinner options!

Underwhelming. The poke bowl was just not good. Who puts tomatoes in a poke bowl... the service was disappointing and it was weirdly loud in there. Won't be going back.

A classic experience if you're in the coconut grove/Miami area. Cute little Italian market/restaurant. Good drinks and food and gelato!

Narbona has been on my bucket list for a while, and finally got the change to try it this week. My expectations were very satisfied, the food was exquisite. For starters I had the empanada and the Tuna Tartar. These two appetizers sound pretty basic, but I have to say probably the best that I have eaten in this town. Then I had the mushroom risotto for my main dish, which tasted wonderful, the only downside was the texture of the rice. It was a little hard for my liking, felt as it was under cooked and need more heat. Finally, the dessert, I ordered the tiramisu which was delicious. The ingredients tasted fresh, the mascarpone melted in your mouth given a delightful feel. The staff/service was very polite, and responsive to the tables needs. It felt like they took pride in their work. Which intern, made me happy to be at Narbona. The atmosphere was perfect, the lighting wasn't too dark, temperature was at a perfect state, not cold and not warm but just right and restaurant was nice and clean. I would definitely reviste Narbona.
