    I have been coming regularly for years and it used to be a solid Italian spot with good with no frills Italian fares and delicious wines. Not cheap but it was worth the money. Sadly my last two visits were extremely disappointing: the quality of the food has declined terribly and is now comparable to the overpriced tourist spots you can find on Lincoln Road. I wanted to believe it was a fluke but two visits sadly confirmed this experience.

    Great restaurant, nice decor, not real candles, but still charming hence to dimmed lights. Starter of meat and cheese good, meat could be a bit more generous. Temperature a bit too cold, so is the restaurant by the way. Bread was a bit old, asked them to put in oven for a sec: much better. Comes with homemade cheese and good quality olive oil! Main the seafood risotto: very good. Great taste. Wines: great. Desert: flan with mango (just too unripe but fresh!) and strawberry (perfect!). All over great food, good service and well priced this cozy restaurant!

    Modern decor, great customer service, and the food was pretty decent. It has an interesting romantic atmosphere. Try the lobster salad and panacotta dessert. Yummy

    Good wine selection by glass, boring food, average service. Initially, my dinner partner and I planned to be at a table outside; when we were coming up, we realized that this was not the best idea. The tables are without any view as the terrace is located lower than the street level. We have asked for the recommendation of the waiter regarding the most popular dishes and followed his suggestions. For appetizers Animelle (veal sweetbreads) and eggplant parmesan. The appetizers prepared in advance, they were immediately served. Eggplant Parmesan was suite cheesy, eggplant had to taste. The second appetizer on the table was not wrong, veal sweetbreads (Animelle), quite juicy and aromatic. For the main course we decided to have pasta, and it was delicious. One pasta is spaghetti with baby clams, the second - spaghetti bottarga di muggini. Both have the right consistency and have a fresh taste. The wine list presents an excellent selection of high-quality Italian wines, including by the glass. For dessert, we decided to try a chocolate cake with ice cream; however, we were served with baked cheese. The mistake was fixed quickly enough, so we tried two desserts. Similarly, this is not a place where you can enjoy a sweetness, unless if you do want to finish dinner with sugar, baked cheese, or fried fatty dough. Service is ok, slightly forgetful, the wines in the bill are mixed up, the dessert is mixed up, they were asked to fix an unstable table, the waiter promised, but forgot. There was no soap in the bathroom. Conclusion: Good wine selection, great pasta, average service. Service 3 Appetizer 3 Pasta/Main 5 Dessert 3 Dry Martini 4 Wine selection 4 Bathroom 3

    Might be my fave Italian menu in Miami. Excellent selection. Bread / cracker basket includes a Romano cheese (?) spread that is just addictive. Pizza and pastas - can get all as 1/2 portions ! - and were excellent. Meatballs were A+. Spritz well made. Server was lovely. And a great happy hour. Checks all the boxes. I’d choose this over the overpriced Lucali any day.

    If you want Italian food, this is the place . Located near south beach with a home style type of cuisine and service.

    One of the best Italian restaurants in Miami Beach, consistently good food and top service. Not the typical. My favorite neighborhood spot in Sunset Harbor for a drink during happy hour and a nice dinner alone, or with friends and family

    Nice brunch! Simple menu, easy to choose. Service quick and attentive.

    Biggest disappointment to eat there, the frito misto was bad … shrimp seemed already cooked and they deep fried it. We ordered 3 pastas … the truffle one was terrible , the seafood one was terrible too … and the carbonara could’ve been good but too much meat in it (kind of tasted like raw meat)… also all 3 pasta was over salted. The server didn’t even bother ask if the food was okay or not … and he saw that we left 80% of the pastas on the plates

    The manager Gabriel at Sardinia Cafe at Harbour House is very disrespectful, not willing to help and no looking forward to offer a solution for the customers. There has been an issue with a credit charge which I did not authorize, he is very rude, no manners and not management skills at all. It is very unfortunate, Sardinia is not well managed as that is what makes a difference, no client service skills.

    De los mejores restaurantes en el área, they have a tasting menu for 32 dollars, it includes an appetizer, entrée and dessert, the quality it's amazing! Santiago is the best server, our experience here was unforgettable, you can find Mirto and Pecorino. One of my favorite spots in Miami 💕

    Food is very good but small portions and very pricey. (Margherita pizza $21 for reference) Overall a good experience with a quiet and relaxing environment without loud music or noisy people

    The restaurant itself is nice, and the service is great. Unfortunately, we did not love our dishes. The ravioli did not taste too fresh and the tomato sauce it came in tasted a little like metal. The other pasta dish we ordered (the special) was just okay. Also, the buffalo did not have much taste. On the other hand, the duo mousse dessert was amazing! I would definitely be back for that alone.

    The ambience of this restaurant is excellent. The pasta was very tasty. They also offer an extended variety of cocktails. My favorite one here is the Moscow Mule.

  • 5/5 Christopher L. 1 year ago on Google
    This is a great go-to, and the best kept secret in Sunset Harbor. The pastas, lamb shank, lamb meatballs, and chicken Parm (which I never order, but which is excellent here with the bone in). The wine selection is terrific. The have a wonderful Montepulciano that is very reasonably priced. Service is always excellent, and they start younoff with good bread and high quality olive oil. They have a good happy hour too!

    Surprisingly delicious despite the unassuming atmosphere. The bread was fresh, veal meatballs tasted great and the sauce on the baked rigatoni was excellent. Only complaint is the hostess was in sloooooow motion (but I guess this is Miami) and didn’t seat us at an outdooor table as requested despite multiple vacant outside tables throughout our meal.

    Excellent, service was very good and food was delicious. The street noise can be annoying if you’re outside. Branzino was delicious and no bones! Pastas we’re also great, orichette superb.
