    Excellence is the only word that comes to mind about this place. Our food was delicious and the place was small but cozy.I was mesmerized by the combination of flavors. Their pizzas are delicious, crispy and taste and their fried calzoni was amazing. Our server was Antonio and he was tending our every need. Very attentive and friendly!!! He recommended different dishes and we loved them all. Totally recommend this place. You won't regret it.

    Nice italian restaurant offering typical Italian dishes (from pasta to pizza). Tagliatelle was great! Gnocchi were a bit too "al dente". Staff is extremely kind, and service is quick. Prices are reasonable. I'd definitely recommend this place if you're in South Beach and would like to try some Italian cuisine.

    This might’ve been the best meal I’ve ever had in my life. We ordered two appetizers, pasta and pizza- all of which exceeded every expectation we could have had. We also ordered dessert and espresso, which were both absolutely fantastic. I don’t remember the name of the dessert but it was topped with strawberries and had “boozy syrup” in the description. I had to take a nap after just to process how delicious everything was.

    Service was good. Regular Crust pizza was good, although we've had better (comparing to authentic Italian) gluten free Crust was not good at all. Dough too heavy. My friends really enjoyed truffle and porcini lasagna, although in Italy they would never combine those 2 flavors in one dish.

    Favorite Italian spot in Miami!! (And we’ve tried most of them!) The Bucatini all’Amatriciana is one of the greatest pasta’s ever and we love the Casala pizza + octopus. You will not be disappointed!

    Great night celebrating a birthday party at this traditional neopolitan pizza restrurant. Service is great and most servers speak intalian. We had a mix of all their appetizers. The eggplant Parmesan was hands down the winner followed by the bruschetta. The vitello tonnato is not what I am used to eating in Italy. We also got an assortment of pizzas. They were great I just feel like the pizza dough needed a tad bit of salt. The birthday desert and the cannoli were delicious.

    The pasta was perfectly cooked and bolognese sauce was made from scratch and excellent. It’s the only meal I’ve had in SoBe that was so good I’ll dine here every day. That’s how excellent is was! The pizza was perfection too. A lot of locals told me to dine here and they were right. You will be so happy you did.

    Loved it, felt like the first healthy meal I've had in the US. Good bread, pizza's were fresh and tasty. I only had the parmigiana di melanzane and it was delicious and just enough for a decent, European sized dinner. A little busy outside because of traffic, but not too bad. Definitely recommend

    Fratelli La Bufala sits right on the corner of Washington Ave in South Beach. The menu offers classic Italian dishes with specialty items offered. Good portions. Beautiful spot for aperitivo with a sunset view. The servers were gentilissimi! I'll be back for pizza napoletana next time. Be sure to check in for a complimentary glass of champagne! Indoor & outdoor seating available GF spaghetti available upon request! Vegetarian friendly options

    Pizza is excellent - Napoli style so thicker crust but light and chewy like sourdough. All the ingredients are delicious and fresh. The mozzarella cheese is insanely good. Great service and cool laid back atmosphere too. The mozzarella discs were not my favorite because of the shape (silly but true), however, still great and we quickly ate them all!

    Authentic, delicious Italian food with a cohesive atmosphere and great service. The chef and host were awesome. The Cacio e Pepe was the best I’ve had and I have tried to find a comparable dish in the time since visiting Miami. One of the best restaurants in south beach.

    Best pizza you'll find on South Beach! If you love pizza you'll love this restaurant. They make some of the best Neapolitan pizzas I've ever tried. Miami always has lovely weather so grab one of the many tables outside. Dining in is fine as well. Service was friendly and quick. If you are debating on what to order you can't go wrong with the quattro formaggi, so much cheesy goodness!

    What a great place! The homemade pasta was AMAZING! The softness, the taste, plus the sauce! Everything about it was just perfect. And the appetizers were just as great as the pasta. Loved this place

    My search for the real deal. A family from Naples Italy started the first authentic Neapolitan pizza restaurant in Miami Beach and luckily I found it. My maker was a certified Pizzaolo from Naples. The fire in the wood oven was 1000 degrees as it should be. Neapolitan pizza (Italian: pizza napoletana), also known as Naples-style pizza, is a style of pizza made with tomatoes and mozzarella cheese. The tomatoes must be either San Marzano tomatoes or Pomodorino del Piennolo del Vesuvio, which grow on the volcanic plains to the south of Mount Vesuvius. The cheese must be Mozzarella di Bufala Campana, a protected designation of origin cheese made with the milk from water buffalo raised in the marshlands of Campania and Lazio in a semi-wild state, or Fior di Latte, a cow's milk mozzarella created according to the procedure for which it was registered as a Traditional Speciality Guaranteed. Pizza Napoletana is a Traditional Speciality Guaranteed (TSG) product in the European Union and the United Kingdom, and the art of its making is included on UNESCO's list of

    Very good authentic neapolitan pizza but a little light on the tomato sauce. The pasta was just average for being on the pricey side.

    Nice ambience, not too crowded (2pm on a Sunday). Gnocchi sauce was tasty, pizza was a bit soggy but over all, a nice place.

    There are a million dining options in South Beach... this one is on a very visible intersection. We just wanted a quick bite and were aiming rather low. This place didn't disappoint at all. The spaghetti was spot on, and the pizza menu was very solid. Worth every penny.

    Lovely little place, with seating inside or outside. Server was helpful and accommodating. Definitely recommend the pizza. Even though I might say, everything we had was delicious!

    I ordered Vitello Tonnato and minestrone soup with Uber eats as a late night snack when I was soo hungry. They forgot to put the sauce in Vitello which made it absolutely plain and impossible to eat. The minestrone was so mediocre that even the one sold at Whole Foods ready to eat department is way more delicious. Even with this attractive price point, don’t waste your money.

    Todella hyvä ja maukas, pizza juuri oikein tehty ja maukas. Pasta myös oikein hyvä sekä äyriäiset hyvin valmistettu. Ainoa miinus, että on valmiiksi laitettu tipit loppuhintaan eikä voi itse vaikuttaa siihen. Tippi tulee automaattisesti 18%.
