Top Best Italian Restaurants in Suniland

"When we want pasta, we go to Macchialina - and not only on Thursdays for their $10 pasta night. This place makes great cavatelli, tagliolini, and lasagna, all of which are good enough to pay full price for and which plenty of people do since you pretty much always need a reservation to eat here. It’s hip, but still a relatively cozy spot, which makes it perfect for date night and a very refreshing option in the world of South Beach restaurants, where things are rarely cozy and you just won’t find pasta this good."

"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."

"Another fairytale experience can be found at Casa Tua, a Mediterranean-style villa hidden away behind tall hedges in the middle of busy South Beach. As its name suggests, this restaurant makes you feel like you’re dining inside a close friend’s home. Couples can choose between an intimate table inside the villa, or one in the lush garden where lanterns dot the trees, creating a romantic glow."

"Casa Tua is one of the Italian Restaurants in Miami that instantly transports you to Italy and the name means “Your home”. Enter through trees and you will be rewarded with a villa, restaurant and outdoor where you can dine under the old trees and vines. The restaurant also has locations in Aspen and Paris, and Casa Cucina an open air Italian kitchen in Brickell."

"Casa Tua, a hotel and restaurant inside a Mediterranean villa in South Beach, offers seating inside its art-filled dining room or out in the leafy garden under lantern light."

"This restaurant offers a dedicated approach to romantic dining and knows how to make the most of it when it comes to providing clients with memorable and pleasant outings. Let them know, while making a reservation, that you plan to visit with the intention of dazzling your sweetheart. They will provide you with a perfect location where you will be able to enjoy their wonderful recipes."

"Looking for tastes and flavor profiles that closely resemble Italy?. Il Gabbiano your best bet for that. With an all-white interior, the restaurant is sure to make you feel comfortable and clean as you pick a table to settle down in."

"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."

"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."

"Pasta , Italian"

"Traditional Italian fare is plentiful at this downtown eatery. From the fresh and flavorful antipasti platters to their handmade pasta, this place is the real deal. Farfalleis a relaxing space with a cozy interior, excellent wine selection, and a small, but friendly staff providing exceptional service."

"Think back on the Miami of a year ago, when nobody was sure if our city’s meteoric ride to the top of the American food scene would survive the pandemic’s brutal wrath. Flash forward to now, and even in the height of summer, snagging a reservation at a top restaurant is a tough feat, like Art Basel just kept on going right into hurricane season. Whether or not our restaurant renaissance continues is anyone’s guess, but for now we can all revel in a year that’s seen week after week of world-class openings."

Here, it's made with a rough-and-ready combination of tomatoes, olive oil, olives, capers, garlic, and anchovies.
