Top Best Italian Restaurants in Goulds

"The moment you step into Macchialina Taverna, you’ll notice that it’s wildly different from other Miami restaurants. This is because it doesn’t invite natural sunlight as much as others do. This design choice gives the restaurant a homey and cozier mood than other Italian restaurants."

"Miamians seem to be split into two groups: natives who still live with their parents and transplants who moved as far away from their parents as humanly possible. If you fall into the second group, but occasionally want to feel like you're eating with family, head to this tiny spot Downtown run by an old Italian couple who close the place on American AND Italian holidays, or whenever they feel like it. The mismatched furniture really makes it feel like home, but unlike home you can still bring your slightly questionable dates here: it's also one of Miami's most romantic restaurants."

It’s quiet and secluded, with Italian servers and homemade pasta ramping up the authenticity."
