Osteria da Fortunata - Miami

The food here is priceless, if you want real authentic Italian food in Miami, I recommend this place! Gaetano’s service was exceptional. As you can see, the pasta was so good we only remembered to take pictures after we finished it.

🤬Heads-up if you’re planning to eat at Osteria La Fortuna in Miami: We were a party of four. When we asked for the bill, the waiter brought over the credit card machine without showing us the actual bill. There was no mention of a service charge. We added a tip, not realizing they had already included a 20% service charge of $61.30. Because they didn’t say anything, we unknowingly added another $30.65 on top—bringing the total to $431.56 for what should have been a $370 meal. The food itself was excellent—especially the fresh pasta, which they’re known for—and the service during the meal was good. But the lack of transparency at the end felt sneaky and left a bad impression. If you go, make sure to ask for the full bill before paying and check whether a tip has already been added.

Osteria Da Fortunata in Miami Beach is, unfortunately, one of the worst dining experiences I’ve had in the area. The service was shockingly bad. Our waiter barely checked in, and it took over 30 minutes just to get his attention to place an order. When he finally came by, he took my order and literally walked away without even bothering to take my friend’s. Dishes were dropped on our table in one chaotic wave (appetizer, mains, and dessert) all at the same time, as if pacing a meal is some rare skill. Water was never refilled, and we saw multiple frustrated guests just get up and leave. The food did nothing to redeem the experience. Everything was overly mediocre, the croquettes were drowning in oil, and they had the audacity to charge $10 for stale bread with olive oil. With so many great options in Miami Beach, there’s no reason to waste time or money here when other places actually respect and value their customers.

Identical to the one in Italy, food is extremely fresh and tastes amazing. Slightly more expensive than Italy but worth every $$$. I would come here often if I lived close by. Staff super friendly and accommodating. Strongly suggest to come here at least once to experience it for yourself.

The waiter took my friend’s order, then just… left. Didn’t even look at me. We had to wave him down 10 minutes later like we were tourists looking for help. By the time I ordered, my friend had already gotten and digested both, his entrée and dessert. He was basically finished with dinner, and I was still waiting to join the party lol Then they hit us with an automatic 20% gratuity. Bold move, I was honestly thinking we were in a social experiment. I was looking for my boy John Quinones, but he never came. And when the check came? No pen. Just vibes. Food was great. But if you’re hungry, maybe try the restaurant next door for better service…

If you’re in Miami, Osteria da Fortuna is a must-visit! Food is absolutely delicious and fresh with pasta made in-house. Gaetano was our waiter, and we had the best time with him! His humor and personality elevated our experience even more. We loved this place, and you will too!

Luigi, grazie mille! You truly made our night special. Your warm smile, great energy, and amazing service added so much to the experience. The food was incredible, but your kindness is what we’ll remember most. We’ll be back—and we’ll be asking for you!

Osteria da Fortunata brings an authentic taste of Italy to Miami Beach. From the start, the warm atmosphere and friendly Italian staff make you feel like you’ve stepped into a true Roman trattoria. The appetizers are outstanding unique, full of flavor, and beautifully prepared. The handmade pasta is top notch, showcasing fresh ingredients and expert craftsmanship. Every dish stays true to Italian tradition while offering a refined touch. While the quality is excellent, the portions are on the modest side given the price. The focus is clearly on premium ingredients and technique, but a bit more generosity would make the experience even more satisfying. Service is impeccable, with a passionate team that enhances the experience. If you’re looking for authentic Italian flavors in a lively setting, Osteria da Fortunata is a great choice just be prepared to savor every bite. Tell them Flavia sent you!

Love how authentic this little pasta shop is with the Nonna's making the pasta! I recommend any red sauce pasta here! I wanted to love the carbonara but it came out cold and the sauce was very thick. They use thick high panchetta in their carbonara which I loved (rare to see these days )

Walked in for lunch on a Monday around 1pm. I've been wanting to try this place for a while since they have locations in Rome, Bologna and Milan. The restaurant was not packed today. The place is small but it has a Nice decor and feel to it. Outdoor seating is available but in the middle of summer I chose to seat inside, unfortunately the AC was off or not working. The service was prompt but not really welcoming. They did not take any time in explaining the various home made pastas they offer or go over any of the menu items. They do not offer tap water, it's only bottled water at $7. They do offer bread which was fresh and the olive oil was authentic. I ordered the Amatriciana which did not take very long to arrive. The pasta was delicious, very traditional and full of flavor. I do feel the price was a bit steep for $31 but it was a good size portion. Bill came and tip was already included at 20%. I do feel I will return for lunch if I'm around the area because the food was really good but it doesn't really feel like a dinner spot. If I were to change something is the service to be more welcoming and the price. The same dish in the one in Rome goes for $19 but I also understand is Miami Beach prices.

This restaurant was pretty easy to find and i'm sure with the location it gets a lot of business. I made a reservation but i probably didn't need to because there wasn't many people out or inside. I'm not sure if outside would have been better because there was no AC they had fans and what not but was odd. We got a strawberry margarita which they claimed to have real strawberry juice and it was tasting more like a club marg. presentation was pretty. our waiter which i didn't get his name he was super nice and even the host was also very nice. our waiter explained to us what they had and what they didn't have i really wanted One of the fresh juices they had and all they had was orange juice. We started off with the Crochetta potato balls they were very very good probably the best thing we got and it came with a pretty solid amount of them. We both got the carbonara it was a solid 8. i loved the pasta noodles !!!!! if i can have all my pasta like that all the time i would it was a thicker noodle. I probably wouldn't run back here again but i was not mad at it! They even had the women making fresh pasta at the window. I would love to try another type of pasta or dish. On our way out i did notice many people were seated outside and they were busy .

If you're craving PASTA this spot on Lincoln Road is absolutely fantastic - they have such a great selection of pastas on the menu that you cannot find anywhere else you absolutely cannot pass this spot up. My husband and I went to Osteria Da Fortunata for the first time in Rome and loved the food there so much we couldn't wait to try it when they opened in Miami. The one here in Miami it actually pretty close to what you get at Osteria Da Fortunata in Rome so we were super happy with our meal and experience. We always start with the prosciutto and melon appetizer paired with a nice cold glass of white wine or Aperol Spritz and on a hot summer day in Lincoln Road the combination is refreshing and delicious and perfect. For pasta our favorites are always the "strozzapreti alla gricia" which is short handmade pasta with guanciale (pork) pecorino cheese and pepper which is absolutely delicious or the fettuccine all'amatriciana. We tried once the ravioli di ricotta burro e slave - which is ravioli filled with ricotta and cooked with butter and sage - and the dish was super salty we couldn't finish it. I was disappointed because I usually love dishes with sage but everyone at the table agreed the dish was just too salty to enjoy it. That's the only pasta dish we have tried that we have not enjoyed, the rest of the pasta dishes on the menu are amazing. We drive all the way from Fort Lauderdale to Lincoln Road for their pasta so we really enjoy it. Service is always great too! Servers are really nice and friendly, always checking up on you regularly, and not rushing you to finish and eat and pay. They let you relax and take your time eating or sipping your grass of wine and just enjoying watching everyone walking by on Lincoln Road. If you're in the mood for great pasta I highly recommend Osteria Da Fortunata.

It just wasn't the same. I had two great dinner experience and tonight. Wasn't that good Walking in the restaurant to get a table 2 guys stood in front and they told me they don't have pizzas and they don't have something else.. it was not a good start I wanted a pasta dish. I asked him if the tomato mozzarella was small. He said yes it was Big. I couldn't have anything else. but I was OK with just the tomato mozzarella. I live on Lincoln Road next time. I hope it'll be better.

I am so sad this restaurant is hit or miss; I have only had fantastic food experiences at Osteria Miami Beach. I agree with a lot of the reviews around; the service is not stellar. It gives a good reason to the crowd who avoids Lincoln road at all costs for food options. However, if you find yourself nearby, it is absolutely worth stopping by and sitting outside (if it's not the summer) for a big bowl of bolognese pasta (my favorite). The prices are absolutely ridiculous, so it's worth coming with a group and splitting a few pasta dishes. The carbonara is absolutely stunning, although one of the times I ordered it was slightly above my salt preference. The wines by the glass are also very expensive; again, come with a group and split a bottle. Overall, it could do some work to standout amongst the lincoln road overpriced stereotype, but it is always my go to if I'm with friends or family in the area.

Amazing. Best cacio e pepe I've had in South Florida. I had low expectations but I was truly surprised by the quality of the food.

Walking on Lincoln, we decided to give this spot a try. Plenty of outside seating fully covered and comfortable for some great people watching. The menu has many options and we selected two pasta dishes. The beer was cold and the wine selection was perfect. The service was fast and pleasant. We had a few questions about the menu and they were quickly answered. Overall, we were pleased with our visit and meal. Like most restaurants on Lincoln, a service change was included on the final bill which is typically 20% and can be treated as gratuity. This began during COVID and won't go away. It was a good spot for dinner and hope you enjoy your visit.

Terrible service. Food was just ok. Wait was long and not worth it. Plus we were suckered into thinking it would be amazing because of the line in front. It wasn't. Try any of the other places right around there instead. Then you can spend the time you would have wasted in line sightseeing in beautiful Milan!

An excellent place for an Italian meal. The pasta is all made there and from what I was told they also make their own burrata that was the creamiest I have had. The pasta, of course, since freshly made was excellent with a cream sauce, pecorino cheese and pork cheek. Service was also spot on and this is definitely Italian owned and run.

We were able to make reservations over the phone about an hour prior to arrival on a Sunday. To our surprise, the restaurant was pretty empty around 2 PM on Sunday. Staff was very welcoming and friendly and made an effort to know what country my partner and I were from. The tables are a little close to one another and the aesthetic of the restaurant is not as exciting as I expected it to be, but still nice that you can see pasta makers from right outside the restaurant window. The menu is very neat and has a section where you can scan a barcode to view pictures of the entrees and select what you want to eat in a visual way. Many great wine options with nice Italian selection of course. I ordered a lovely Sauvignon blanc by the glass. Bread oil and vinegar were brought to the table to start. Oil tasted as if it is first cold pressed. Balsamic vinegar was also delicious. We skipped appetizers and I'm glad we did because portions for entree were big. They have some lovely plates and cups with all the cities where they have this restaurant. I really enjoyed my pasta with a super rich bolognese style kind of sauce. They grated fresh Parmesan to put on top! I would go again! I just hope the ambiance changes and becomes more intimate, lively with Italian decor, etc.

Must eat here! We are at their location in Rome and they opened one in Miami. Fresh made pasta you can see them making in the window. It is the best meatballs, carbonara, cacio e Pepe, oxtail pasta. 10/10 recommend. Great service. Location looks just like Italy. Great for people watching as well! Best Italian food!!!!!

We loved how they were making the pasta when you walk in. We were very indecisive on what to order because everything looked very good. We opted on 2 pastas and an antipasti. The food was immaculate you can really tell those were authentic Italian dishes. The place it self looks as if you just walked into a restaurant in Italy. Our server was extremely kind. We loved it

Absolutely delicious pasta dishes! Truly authentic Italian pasta! I was OBSESSED with this restaurant when I went to Rome. I ate there almost everyday so when they opened here in Miami, I knew I had to visit! The service is great too! Beautiful outdoors ambiance on Lincoln Road!

I'm so torn about this restaurant. This is the best Italian food I've had outside of Italy itself. However, the service was terrible. The burrata di bufala con bruschette was incredible. The creamy burrata was perfectly balanced with the salty anchovies. The taglioni al pesto was beautiful and delicious. I could tell that the pasta was freshly made. However, our waiter seemed to be very uninterested in serving us. It was a bit annoying for there to be a 20% gratuity charge when he barely showed up to our table.

From an Italian born in Rome, and 10 years in USA: - they force you to buy bottled water (no tap water available) - 20 percent tips included: it COULD be fine if the service was very very good but it's not - carbonara made with strozzapreti? Weird. Nothing special - food overpriced for what you get - bread and wine decent

Ordered $300 worth of food and drinks. I asked for a refund on a lemonade drink because it didn't taste good and they refused to do so. FYI they automatically charge you 20% tip. It took over 35 min to get our food ready.

Very authentic Italian food! I got the gnocchi and it was cooked to perfection. Mine was a little greasy from the cheese and it could have used a little seasoning. The atmosphere sitting on Lincoln road and people watch is always a treat! Friendly service and you know they have fresh ingredients as they make the pasta fresh in the window!

Walked in because we saw someone making pasta through the window and just HAD to try it! Inside in casually decorated with traditional Italian decor and plenty of outdoor seating. Once we walked in were greeted and given the menu, but accepted the waiters suggestions after a few moments to look. Each dish had its own pasta which I loved so the possibilities are endless. Will be back for more soon!

We were in Italy last year and this place took us right back to Rome. The pasta and ingredients here were so fresh and delicious. If you love pasta this is the place for you.

Sad. The restaurant seats around 30 in an indoor dining room, plus about the same number of people al fresco on Lincoln Road. The first two table right after you enter are behind a giant window overlooking Lincoln Road and have people making artisanal pasta. We were a party of 6 an were promptly seated. Doors are kept open, so we had a brisk (and uncomfortable) winter breeze coming in. I guess in the summer the issue are mosquitoes and heat. Our server claimed to be Italian and started the interaction being somewhat rude. That was an omen, things would quickly go downhill. We ordered burrata and caprese for starters, which were mostly tasteless, as was the bread. For mains, everyone ordered pasta. I ordered the gnocci sorrentina, which were saltless, insipid and plain, even though the texture (which is arguably the hardest thing to achieve) was okay. A friend who joined us and asked for an alfredo-like option for her 10-year old was literally scolded by the waiter, who claimed, in a very loud voice, that this was an Italian restaurant with no cheese pasta and no spaguetti and meatballs. There was nothing wrong with the message, but the attitude was simply unacceptable. In summary, pasta dishes are USD 30+ and mostly tasteless, service is hideous and very rude, and dining room is not kept at a pleasant temperature. You could call this a tourist trap, and I would not disagree.

Had high hopes for this place. Unfortunately extremely overpriced for a pasta. $45 (with tax and tip) for an amatriciana pasta. Could make this dish for 10 people at home for that price. Trying to replicate European style street concept yet unsuccessfully, not the vibe (nor the price). Irrelevant service.

Lovely ambience on the street patio under the lights. Charming service. But, the sauces disappointed -- everyone said way too salty.

Osteria Da Fortunata Brings Authentic Italian Dining to Miami Beach Tucked away on the bustling Lincoln Road in South Beach, the recently opened Osteria Da Fortunata transports diners straight to Italy with its charming trattoria ambiance and mouthwatering regional dishes. As the first US outpost of this family-owned restaurant group based in Tuscany, Osteria Da Fortunata fills a niche for authentic Italian cuisine in Miami. The service is as warm as an Italian nonna's embrace. Our server Luigi offered enthusiastic recommendations from the menu of Tuscan classics. We started with outstanding appetizers including olive ascolane, fried olives filled with meat and oozing juices, and creamy burrata di bufala served with bruschetta, the perfect combination of fresh tomatoes and melted cheese. For the main course, the pasta dishes stole the show. The rich strozzapreti alla carbonara, sciavallelli amatriciana, and fettuccine al ragu were cooked to perfection with flavors that transported us back to Italy. To end the meal on a high note, we tried two stellar desserts - the classic tiramisu with just the right ratio of mascarpone and espresso, and a light and creamy zabaione that was the perfect sweet finish. From start to finish, Osteria Da Fortunata provides a transportive and delicious culinary journey thanks to authentic dishes, fantastic service, and a intimate trattoria ambience. Luigi's warm hospitality made our Sunday lunch a memorable family moment. This trattoria is a must-visit for foodies looking to get a taste of Tuscany without leaving South Florida. We'll definitely be back!

I used to wait 30 to 45 minutes in Rome for this place. So happy to see they have a new location in Miami! Probably best Roman pasta in town!

My dad and I wanted to find a nice place to go to for his birthday and this hit the spot. I was immediately drawn by the fact that it was an actual Resturant in Rome, Italy. For someone who has never gone but always wanted to, it was nice for me to be able to get a little taste of it (literally). The place is wood-paneled and has a warm, cozy theme. And they have many seats inside and outside which you can choose based on what you prefer at the moment. I already knew the food was going to be divine when I saw this windowsill where the pasta makers would make and shape the dough right in front of you. It truly enhanced the experience knowing that the food was made freshly and specifically for your meal. It is nice when a restaurant is transparent about where your food is coming from. We started off with the Burrata di Bufala con Bruschette. We got tomato on the bruschetta instead of anchovies but it was marvelous in itself. The crust was a bit hard but the barrata was extremely creamy. It was almost like milk. I believe the bread to cheese ratio was a bit off where maybe there should have been 3 slices instead of two because then we had leftover cheese. However, the tomatoes were extremely fresh. It was just the right amount of food where I did not feel anywhere near full but satisfied until the food came. The amount of an appetizer is something many restaurants cannot perfect like this restaurant did. I got an Italian-imported drink called Aranciata Galvanina, an organic blood orange soda. I definitely recommend because it's very refreshing after the powerful flavor profiles of the pastas. The main courses took about 35 minutes but I expect it was because it was because everyone puts their heart and soul into the making of those pastas. And it doesn't go unnoticed. We had the Tagliolini Pesto Sciavatelli and the Tagliolini Cacio e Pepe. It was truly the most pleasant surprise when they brought just the right amount. With Italian restaurants, depending on price, you usually get too much or too little. But that was just another aspect that made me love this restaurant. Both dishes were so fresh and flavorful, very good quality cheese and homemade pesto with basil imported from Italia. Some noodles weren't even or kind of misshaped but that added to the home-like, rustic quality of the place, along with the hand-painted plate ware and cups. We ended the evening with a chocolate cheesecake which was probably the best cheesecake my dad and I have both ever had. It had just the right amount of sugar with the best kind of fluffiness. Our waiter, Gaetano, was very cordial and always attended to us when we had any questions, concerns, etc. This was a birthday the both of us will never forget.

Welcome to Italian pasta heaven. This isn't Carbone, Scarpetta or any typical Italian you've had in the US. Sort of an IYKYK type of a place. If you've traveled to a major Italian city, chances are you've heard of or eaten here. Likewise, if you haven't traveled to Italy but are active on social media you've likely seen an "influencer" post a reel or TikTok about this place. As authentic as authentic gets when I discovered the place just opened I immediately cancelled reservations and ensured I had a booking. The place has only been open 2 weeks and the entire family has came from Italy to ensure a spectacular opening. We arrived for lunch and were kindly greeted by the owner and his wife and extended family. Everybody here speaks fluent Italian and good enough English. We ordered the Burrata Bufala di bruschetta, taglioni Cacio e Pepe and taglioni pomodoro. Just like the store in Rome, you can watch them freshly hand make the pasta! Must check out spot!

This place was spectacular! The first few pages of the menu was a rundown of who they are as a restaurant, when you looked inside you can see these wonderful women making the pasta in house. Their ingredients are imported from Italy, the restaurant originated from Rome! I had the carbonara and my boyfriend had the ragu, both were phenomenal. Alberto was great, very personable and hospitable! Their espresso martini was amazing, it was smooth to the palette and a perfect mix of alcohol and espresso. Definitely will be back!!

It's well overpriced. We were charged 20% tips and the waiter said that the 20% is for the cooks and back of the house staffs. (The waiter said it very vague). He requested us to give another % on the POS for service fee, which is very ridiculous. No water given and said only bottled water is available. Total for 2 people is around 120 for two pastas, a bottle of water, and a tiramisu. The oxtail pasta was good tho. But I rather give that extra tips to someone else.

Be careful. I was charged more than what appeared on my bill. The place is cute and the food was good but pricey. We had three dishes and dessert. The service on the other hand was awful. The restaurant was empty, and we had to wait for our waiter for long periods of time every time we needed something because he was nowhere to be found. I can understand when the restaurant is full, but we were one of three families there. There is a 20 percent obligated tip on the bill, which is probably why the service is so bad. I saw my bill and tapped my card and for some reason I was charged more than what I was shown on the bill. I didn't add any additional tip. I've heard this happens in touristy places.

Took me back to when I was in Italy! Had an amazing time here. We decided to sit outside and enjoy the beautiful Miami weather. The team is fresh making the pasta in front of you so you know it's going to be good. The food was incredible! Our server suggested the carbonara and it did not disappoint. I loved it! So happy we have a piece of Italy here.

The service poor the manager rude, I will take a table but first my kids wants to go a bathroom and the manager ask me a few times if I have a table with very bad attitude. So don't waste your money and time when an a restaurant they act like that for the simple thing to use the bathroom.

We were in Osteria Da Fortunata in Rome some months ago. When we knew that they open a restaurant in Miami Beach, we went immediately expecting the same amazing experience that we had in Rome. Let's start with the service. It was really good. Our waiter was very informative, gave us all the details for each dish. He also explained us why some dishes that they have in Rome were not in the Miami menu (the rabbit, for example). The ambience is nice. They have a small space in the restaurant very similar to the Rome and traditional restaurants in Italy. Also, they have a very nice terrace outside. The most important, the food, was great. We were thinking that maybe would not be same because of the ingredients but I we were impressed. We ordered the burrata and prosciutto, very fresh and flavorful. The carbonara pasta is the same that we ate in Rome. The cheesecake was good but not as good as the Rome. The fruits were not fresh and the base had not mascarpone or at least was not the same. Last but not least, the reason why I gave them 4 stars is because of the price. It is too expensive for pasta.

Waiter was DRUNK and stank, almost fell on the table and didn't speak English. And the food... well... got food poisoned. Typical tourist trap, unfortunately like every restaurant on Lincoln these days. SoBe is not what it used to be ever since they killed all mom & pop shops.

Miami Beach shares an authentic taste of Rome! The staff at Osteria Da Fortunata, like true Italians, make you feel right at home. The menu offers mouthwatering pasta dishes with the perfect drink selection to pair. To start I enjoyed my favorite, an Aperol Spritz with an order of the caprese. The mozzarella was so tasty and fulfilled my cheese craving. I'm a true pesto girl, so of course had to try the tagliolini pesto. The pasta was cooked perfectly and the pesto was certainly done right! Highly recommend this dish. This restaurant is a much try. Thank you for having us!

We first visited Osteria Da Fortunata in Rome Italy and were hooked from the first dish. We visited it twice during a 3 day stay in Rome. We were so excited to here that they opened in Miami Beach. We ordered for appetizers the Burrata do Bufala con bruchete which included anchovies, bread and tomatoes. Delicious. As well as the Suppli which is the Roman version of arancini. For entrees we ordered two Fettuccini pasta al Ragú and the winning dish of the night was the Ravioli with butter and sage. Soft pillows of pasta with the most delicious butter sage sauce. For dessert we ordered the ricotta cheesecake. Yum. Our server Federico was so gracious and helped us with the selections. Call for reservations speak to Federica. There is inside and outside seating. The ladies at the window hand making pasta was great entertainment!!

This restaurant transports you straight to Italy with its authentic flavors and warm atmosphere. They serve some of the best Italian food this side of the Atlantic. We enjoyed the burrata bruschetta, pasta carbonara, and fettuccine al ragù, paired with a refreshing Aperol Spritz--I only wish I had room for dessert! Our server, Gaetano, took the experience to another level with his exceptional service and spot-on recommendations, making us eager to return.

Delicious authentic fresh Italian food with pasta to die for, great service, and lively atmosphere.

NO TAP WATER;WTF? I haven't ordered yet but I must say I'm already turned off! Not serving tap water is blatant grab for higher sales. A joke! I am hoping for a restorative experience with the food. Also, super expensive; it better be good...I'll keep you posted The food was good, not great...save your money

For quite some time I have been very skeptical about the restaurants on Lincoln Road, especially because of how depressed this area of ​​Miami Beach has become. The high rents have killed many businesses and for those that remain, especially in the gastronomic offerings, It has been necessary to reduce quality and raise prices to stay alive. Fortunately for many of us who enjoy Italian food, this Osteria makes a difference with the others, helping of course to the reactivation of this street mall. The food is very good, they have exactly the same menu as their other locations around Italy, the service is on point, without neglecting the customer but not harassing them either and the prices are quite fair. The only drawback is that the interior space is very small and in the rainy season it will be difficult to dine there.

If you're looking for a delicious authentic Italian restaurant in the heart of South Beach look no further. Osteria offers delicious pasta and classic Italian dishes. When you arrive at the store front you can see them making pasta in the window, so you know that the pasta is going to be good and fresh! We ordered the Frittura Mista, which comes with an assortment of the fried appetizers, and the Strozzapreti Alla Carbonara. Both were absolutely delicious and it was the perfect amount of food for two people. The staff, service, and ambiance were excellent. Overall, I give a 4.6 solely because the prices are a bit high but to be expected in South Beach.

Not worthy the price! We pay $320 for 3 adults plus 2 kids. Food is ok but the service is horrible , we have to eat right next to a couple that was smoking. Hostess don't make any effort to move us . If you ask for some modifications on the plate they can't make it happen. We just ended rushing to eat and leave the place. There is many more better options around the area to eat good pasta and enjoy a better ambiance

Amazing service, just wish the food followed order as well. Pasta was somewhat hard and the ingredients were not fresh.

Very authentic Italian restaurant on Lincoln street. There were 3 ladies who sat down behind the restaurant window and cut the pasta. It was mesmerizing. The food was good, very Italian . Our server ( I think he was 19-20 years old, with blonde hair) was just AMAZING ! So kind, knowledgeable and attentive. The prices are too high, to my opinion.

Ambiance - terrific Service - meh Food - a horror Skip it. Don't be lured in by the homemade pasta exhibit in the window and the charming terracotta dinnerware. Overpriced, but worst of all, awful food.

In true Miami Beach fashion it was ridiculously expense and the food was mid. We paid $70 for one plate with 5 dry meatballs (32 and no pasta with it just 5 regular size meatballs) , 4 pieces of tasteless bread ($10) , a tiny glass bottle diet coke (4) and a bottle of still water for $7 (because they don't serve tap) Waiter/Service was fine. 20 percent service charge added automatically because it's miami beach the vibe was cute and all and it was cute to see the ladies by the window hand making pasta but we won't be coming back

The pasta handmade in the window I was so excited to eat here when they first opened a few months ago, I had been to their location in Rome, and had one of the best meals I've ever had. Their pasta is memorable and I'm sure this place will soon have the same line it did when I was there in Italy when enough people realize how good it is. The gnocchi and prosciutto and melon appetizer are return-worthy too. The servers have always been kind and attentive, even when I went this weekend with a group of 10 people. We sat outside in this beautiful Miami weather we are having and it was really the perfect night. My only thought for improvement is the wine list- it could be better, next time I go with my partner, I might bring my own bottle.

Food poisoning. My husband came down with severe food poisoning about 6 hours after eating here. We had eaten the same foods for a few days day, until this restaurant. He ordered a pasta with beef tail, and I ordered something vegetarian (which honestly was fantastic). I am fine. He has the worst food poisoning I have ever seen and it has ruined the final days of our vacation. Beware! It's not worth the risk!
