"Miami is saturated with sceney steakhouses that are all sure to be sardine cans during Art Basel. But very few of those places do it better than the city’s original sceney steakhouse: Prime 112. And if you're looking for a see-and-be-seen spot, this is still one of South Beach's best. Fair warning: it'll probably be mayhem during Basel. But maybe that's what you like? Plus, if you do get sent to the bar to wait for your table, good news: there's complimentary bar bacon. Just know that reservations have to be made over the phone." - Ryan Pfeffer

"First, let us be clear: Prime 112 is a scene. The South Beach restaurant gets absolutely slammed on the weekends, packed full of both legit celebrities and people who have convinced themselves that they are celebrities. Maybe this sounds like your own personal nightmare. Fair enough. But Prime 112 is still a classic Miami see-and-be-seen spot - and the steak is good too. If this is the kind of dining experience you’ve missed over the last year, then make a reservation and put on something shiny." - Ryan Pfeffer

"Looking for a one-pound Kobe meatball? Prime Italian has exactly that and it’s served over a hefty pile of spaghetti. This show stopping meatball is just as tasty as it is large. It’s finished off with a large spoonful of ricotta and basil on top. Show up hungry or ready to share Lady and The Tramp style, because it’s just that kind of meal." - Amber Love Bond

"The lasagna at Prime Italian is extra saucy with tradition red sauce, layered with Kobe beef bolognese, and plenty of mozzarella cheese. It’s a classic Italian dish is a staple at the South of Fifth restaurant. Pro tip: check it out during Miami Spice (yearly, during August and September) to score the ultimate deal." - Amber Love Bond

I can't say enough nice things about this place. Every dish was amazing! Service was top notch. Venue was lovely. From the beginning, they brought out complimentary garlic cheese bread that was the best I've ever had. Notable appetizers: meatball, scallops and short ribs Steaks were great. Truffle mac and cheese was really good. Cocktails were nice. All in all, it was a wonderful group dinner.

Let me start by telling you that the drinks were perfect. Great atmosphere bartender hit the spot. We enjoyed happy hour and then we moved on to dinner. The waiter recommended one of the specials which was a lobster ravioli with extra lobster and a reduced wine sauce, delicious. I recommend this for anyone who is in the air.

First, I'll start with the atmosphere. We dined inside and the atmosphere was very nice and upscale to the point you almost forget you're beachside. We received a cheesy bread loaf before ordering and I almost died. That bread wasn't just delicious, it was PERFECT. I know anyone reading this will be thinking "It's just bread. How good can it be?" It is delicious enough that I immediately ordered another loaf and thought to myself that it was good enough to be a meal on its own. The marinara sauce was the best I've ever tasted, and number two isn't close. Then I tried the appetizer, which for me was the fried mozzarella. Amazing! Simply amazing! For my entrée, I had the 1 pound meatball, and substituted angel hair for spaghetti. At this point, the place was already a homerun, but the entrée knocked it out of the park all over again. I've been to a LOT of fine dining places, and rarely do I say the food is UNDERPRICED. This was such an amazing experience that I'd pay more than they charged (but shhh... don't tell them that 🤣). To top it all off, the service, on a scale of 1-10 was a 12. How? Not only were they incredibly professional, prompt and especially courteous, but they were also warm, engaging, friendly and funny as well. I am kicking myself that I can't remember our professional's name (thank the tequila shots I had later that night for that), but he was the super cool guy originally from Catonsville, Md and a huge Ravens fan. 5 star experience... EASY. Highly recommend and WILL return.

Exceptional every time we come to Miami and eat at Prime Italian. I forgot to take pictures of the bread. Omg! Super buttery, cheesey, and melt in your mouth deliciousness. Everything was awesome! 😋🥰

Gosh I love this place. We went to Prime 112 in 2021 and this year we visited Miami again for my birthday and 10 year wedding anniversary and my husband surprised me with a birthday dinner at Prime Italian and everything from the service to the food was top tier. Our server Catherine was absolutely beautiful inside and out(her brows, skin, and teeth….*chef’s kiss*) but she was so sweet and so knowledgeable about the menu and she told me about some things that weren’t on the menu so I ended up getting the lobster ravioli and my husband got the Wagyu risotto…..OMG. SO good. I left full and happy! Happy Birthday to me :) I would recommend this place to everybody and we will be back!

Prime Italian is hands down one of my absolute favorite restaurants in Miami. Whenever I'm in town, I make it a point to visit this incredible establishment. And let me tell you, it never disappoints. On my recent visit, I decided to indulge in their scallops, which are technically listed as an appetizer, but trust me, they can easily pass as a full meal. The scallops were cooked to perfection, tender and succulent, and bursting with flavor. I savored every bite and thoroughly enjoyed the dish. Prime Italian continues to impress me with their impeccable food and exceptional service. It's a must-visit restaurant for anyone in Miami.

My friends and I were here about 2 weeks ago for my birthday. The garlic bread is to die for, it’s so good with the marinara sauce served with it. I had the strawberry basil martini which is great if you like sweet drinks. The short rib risotto is the best risotto and short ribs I’ve ever had in my life. So damn good. I’m going to visit again for a non-occasional dinner.

We drove from Ft Lauderdale to Miami Beach hoping to enjoy our family Christmas lunch. Initially the service was great, food was ok, my husband ordered a $275 steak as his entree but by the time the food came out all of our entrees were hot except the steak. When the waiter called the manager over she’s was unprofessional, critical and didn’t make our experience pleasant at all. The best thing about the lunch was the dessert.
