TripSavvy's fact-checking Most of Miami's best restaurants offer an authentic Latin flair, but if you are looking for something different, Miami is also home to many choices in excellent Italian cuisine. 01 of 09 Cafe Prima Pasta Courtesy of Cafe Prima Pasta View Map Address 414 71st St, Miami Beach, FL 33141-3016, USA Get directions Phone +1 305-867-0106 Web Visit website Food Obsessed 4.2 An interesting blend of Argentinean and Italian fare, this family-owned restaurant has roots in both countries. While Mamma and Papa work the kitchen, their children take care of the rest. Certainly a place to see and be seen, the cafe is reminiscent of true Italian cafes, with framed art on the wall and a cozy atmosphere. Reservations recommended. 02 of 09 Anacapri Italian Restaurant Anacapri Italian Restaurant View Map Address 5749 NW 7th St, Miami, FL 33126-3105, USA Get directions Phone +1 305-266-1355 Web Visit website Anacapri's is an excellent choice for dinner whether you're going on a nice date or just having a jeans-and-t-shirt dinner with friends. The food is excellent and reasonable, the service is always congenial, and the attached Italian market has a great selection of imported meats, cheeses and fresh pasta. Reservations recommended. Now open is a take-out only Anacapri in the Old Cutler Towne Center. 03 of 09 Bugatti View Map Address 2504 Ponce de Leon, Coral Gables, FL 33134-6013, USA Get directions Phone +1 305-441-2545 Web Visit website With its menu of heavenly homemade pasta dishes (such as their pesto- and ricotta-stuffed ravioli), you may be tempted to stick with these delicious treats. If you do, you'll be missing something far rarer in Miami- some of the best thin-crust pizza this side of New York. 04 of 09 Caffe Abbracci View Map Address 318 Aragon Ave, Coral Gables, FL 33134, USA Get directions Phone +1 305-441-0700 Web Visit website An upscale dining experience. Although a little pricey, the atmosphere of this warm dining room with dark wood trim is worth the expense. Also enjoyable is the people-watching; celebs often dine here. While the regulars do get special treatment, it is worth it to get on that list. The food and portion sizes are excellent. Reservations required.

This place may look like a hole-in-the-wall to a passerby, but it's truly one of the best-kept secrets in Miami. Exotic dishes will keep you coming back for more. Reservations recommended, but not accepted on weekends; prepare for a long wait or try for a weekday. 06 of 09 Osteria del Teatro View Map Address 1200 Collins Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33139, USA Get directions Phone +1 305-538-7850 Web Visit website Fine Dining 4.3 Beneath the noise of Crobar is a one-of-a-kind restaurant, the kind of place that anyone in gourmet circles will be talking about. The daily specials, such as ravioli stuffed with crab and scallop in a lobster sauce, make this place worthy enough of daily visits to try the latest creation. Reservations are definitely required, since to be seen at Osteria del Teatro is to be "in" with the food crowd. 07 of 09 La Loggia View Map Address 68 W Flagler St, Miami, FL 33130-1804, USA Get directions Phone +1 305-373-4800 La Loggia is a classic Italian restaurant located in the heart of downtown Miami. Its location across the street from the courthouse makes it a popular spot for lunch, dinner or an after-work drink. I heartily recommend the lobster ravioli! 08 of 09 Big Tomato View Map Address 1 Westward Dr, Miami Springs, FL 33166-5255, USA Get directions Phone +1 305-883-1177 Web Visit website Big Tomato's gourmet pizzas are unlike any other in Miami.
