Top Best Italian Restaurants in Silver Palm

"Nobody makes you feel more convincingly that you're in Italy like former-Scarpetta chef Michael Pirolo does at Macchialina. This tiny Alton Rd eatery not only survived the volatile Miami restaurant industry, it did it on Alton Rd when Alton Rd was a giant pile of gravel. The only spot not called Panera to survive the Alton Armageddon, it's done it with the richest red sauces, freshest pastas, and most inventive cocktail menu on this list."

"Macchialina is energetic enough for a fun date or a catch-up meal with loud friends, and they debuted a great outdoor seating setup during the pandemic. It’s covered, too, in case you’re worried about random thunderstorms. But the atmosphere isn’t necessarily why you go to Macchialina - you come here for the pasta."

"Restaurants South Beach"

"Located in an Italian-style villa, this restaurant's distinguishable only by an open gate and diners seated at elegant outdoor tables. You won't find any signage outside and you might think you're walking into some millionaire's home on South Beach but you'll be greeted shortly by one of their amicable staff members. Start off with bay scallops topped with fresh herbs and olive oil or red wine-marinated beef carpaccio before progressing to an adventurous selection of pastas such as pumpkin and hazelnut ravioli or lobster and artichoke lasagna."

"The restaurant of this beautiful home features an eighteen-seat chef's table, as well as several rooms that make diners feel as if they are eating at a friend's house. Casa Tua may provide a casual atmosphere, but their kitchen operates with a deadly a...[Learn more]"

"This swanky spot located in Downtown Miami sits right on the water in the back of the unsuspecting One Miami condo building that boasts a fully covered patio area. It’s one of those places with impressive white glove service that keeps guests coming back. Expect a large bread basket, chunks of Parmesan cheese, bruschetta, and fried zucchini to appear before menus are even opened or any ordering has taken place."

"The restaurant attracts loyal regulars of the city center, who appreciate fast, efficient service and delicious Italian cuisine. The lively dining room rings with bargains, while the classic dishes are filled with white linen tables. The terrace has a quieter mood, and visitors can admire a stunning view of Biscayne Bay."

"Not only is the menu fire and the atmosphere amazing, but the waiters greet you with free served starters like zucchini chips and freshly scooped cheese. But, whatever you do, don’t miss out all their amazing pasta dishes and their savory garlic bread."

"transplant by a Michelin-starred chef, Fiola is a updated take on traditional Italian cuisine in an elegant setting. Guests can select from la carte menus featuring contemporary twists on Italian classics during from lunch into happy hour and dinner.

"Fiola, an Italian fine-dining treasure in Coral Gables, is from the celebrated restaurateurs Fabio and Maria Trabocchi, whose original Fiola in Washington, D.C. has won the highest..."

"This charming Italian restaurant is full of romantic nostalgia. Hailing from the Italian city of Pompei, it’s no surprise that former owner Armando Alfano chose a Great Depression-era bank as the site of his Downtown restaurant, with the giant bank vault the backdrop for nightly jazz performances. Guests sit on mismatched tables and couches, dining on impeccable Italian delicacies served up by chef Cristian D’oria, ranging from vegetarian-friendly options like the sfoglia di melanzane, a baked layer of eggplant, smoked mozzarella and fresh tomatoes topped with a puff pastry, to the more meatier filetto alla provola, a fillet mignon medallion pan seared & served with smoked mozzarella & sautéed spinach with homemade mashed potatoes."

"Don’t let Downtown’s grit turn you away; one of the best cheap restaurants in Miami is hidden on a tucked-away alley more reminiscent of Milan than Miami. Launched by two Italians, Soya e Pomodoro is the kind of spot where you come for dinner and end up spending the night lingering over drinks as you sway to the sounds of live jazz bands serenading the crowd. While the food is no-frills, the flavors are just as authentic as those you’d find in Italy."

"There exists an earnest, unpretentious beauty to Soya & Pomodoro. Like some strangely seductive and rustic trattoria that you might accidentally stumble upon on an ancient cobblestone side street of Venice or Rome. “Simple food made with love” is the motto here."

"Ideally situated in the heart of Downtown Miami, Alloy Bistro offers a calm, picturesque outdoor dining experience amongst the city's hustle and bustle. The bistro boasts a menu full of gourmet modern Italian cuisine, featuring lots of fresh, local ingredients. The Mediterranean-inspired outdoor patio provides the perfect backdrop for alfresco dining in Downtown Miami."

"Major Food Group’s incredibly popular red-sauce focused eatery Carbone has made its way to South Beach. This location serves up the same high-end takes on classic Italian-American dishes that its New York City counterpart has since 2012 like its famous spicy rigatoni in a vodka sauce; the Caesar salad “alla ZZ” that is prepared table-side; veal chop parmesan; and more — alongside some serious old school vibes, potent cocktails, and plenty of people watching. Reservations are already a hot commodity and booked out a month in advance."

"Its popularity means that booking is essential, as sometimes tables are booked for up to a month in advance. The restaurant is owned by Mario Carbone, Jeff Zalaznick, and Rich Torrist. The trio created a restaurant with the Old World charm of the Italian restaurants in New York."

"One of the best Italian restaurants in Miami Beach in the last decade. This restaurant even made it to The New York Times with a very interesting caption. Carbone was founded by Mario Carbone, Jeff Zalaznik and Rich Torrisi."

"Hakkasan, located in the enormous Fontainbleau, has a breathtaking decor, walls carved out with oriental design and a waterfall at the bar. The menu is inspired by Chef Loo and includes small dishes with duck, noodle platters with homemade sauces, and an array of seafood, meat, and vegetarian entrees. The restaurant also offers an extensive wine and cocktail menu, perfect for the lounge atmosphere and relaxing for post-dinner drinks."

"A classy showcase for contemporary Chinese cuisine, Hakkasan delivers incredible Cantonese fare in chic nightclub-like surroundings that will make you want to stay until the early hours."

"Bars Cocktail bars Wynwood. Inspired by the lively lounges of Mykonos, Astra brings a rooftop bar to a still-developing chunk of Wynwood. The place is pretty huge at 10,000-square-feet and offers proper tables for dinner or more casual seating options for sipping and relaxing."

"Bars Cocktail bars Wynwood. We’re not sure how many people actually dine at Astra, but the rooftop bar does serve a full menu. It’s tasty, too, featuring oysters, grilled octopus and fresh salads like you’d expect to find at a beach club off the Aegean."

"This awesome rooftop in Wynwood is the perfect photo-op all the way from its bright pink, butterfly-covered exterior to its totally pink interior and dazzling rooftop views."

"I actually found this parish when I google searched on Miami Perpetual Adoration. It came up as the closest parish to Coconut Grove. The masses are mostly… read more »"

"Saint Francis de sales Catholic Church is a small white church located 3 miles away from Miami beach towards its North End. Built in 1940, Saint Francis de sales Catholic Church is made with mission chapel and serves the Parish community in the region. Structured beautifully with Parish architecture, the church welcomes every visitor for a spiritual tour."

"Located just off South Dixie Highway in Homestead, the Coral Castle Museum is a unique outdoor attraction that was built by a local man entirely from local limestone. It’s still a mystery how he moved and manipulated the massive limestone blocks used in the castle’s construction; some have suggested he may have had extraterrestrial help. Though the verdict is still out on that claim, there’s no doubt that it’s a popular attraction with children and adults alike, and it’s one of those one-of-a-kind Florida attractions that you won’t see elsewhere."

"‘You will be seeing unusual accomplishment,’ reads the inscription on the rough-hewn quarried wall. That’s an understatement. There is no greater temple to all that is weird and wacky about South Florida."

"No one’s figured out how one diminutive mason managed to move the huge stones for this sculpture garden dedicated to his lost love."
