Cotoletta feels like a slice of Italy! They only serve Milanesa, and it's the best you'll ever try. The place is small, beautifully decorated, and the service is 7 stars. It can get a little noisy, but hey -- Italians are loud Loved it! read more

The brilliance of Cotoletta lies in their simplicity and flawless execution. Their main dish is one item, and it is by far one of the best veal milanesa's you'll ever have. With that comes a select number of sides to choose from; all of which, like the main dish, are perfectly crafted. Service was top notch. Just walking to my table, I was welcomed by multiple staff. Our waiter took his time, explaining the restaurant's concept, offering suggestions, and tending to the experience. The atmosphere is very much alive...if you're looking for a quiet dinner, this probably isn't the place. The ambiance is a bold blend of playful elegance and modern edge that makes it a very immersive and entertaining experience. Overall, I was extremely impressed by every aspect of this visit, and for the $80 cost for a party of 2 (which includes 2 starters, veal milanesa, and 2 sides) I will definitely be coming back. read more

Cotoletta - Milanesa - Salad Near Me - Miami, Florida

I am sorry to say I don't see what all the hype is about at Cotoletta. The Ambiance is cute for a small restaurant but the volume in the place is unbearable. I found that I was yelling the entire time I was there so we could hear each other, it was so bad we had to lean all the way into the table to hear each other and we definitely could not cross talk. Service was good nothing over the top. I have had Milanese many times before coming here and I have to say, it was average. It is important to have the bone in veal chop pounded evenly and it was not, too thin in some places and too thick in other places and a little too oily. The sides were tiny! I appreciate the idea behind 80bucks includes two pieces of an appetizer and two sides but so NOT worth it. The things I liked the most was the two pieces of appetizer the "bruschetta" in quotes because bruschetta usually doesn't have burrata on top( no complaining about that loved it)! The arancini were delish. If you're looking for a perfect Milanese that comes with arugula, Portosole in Coral Gables is my go to place. Lastly, most Italian restaurants do not rush you out the door. But sure enough the waiter and either owner or host literally asked us to leave. Mind you we were there with a reservation and dinning under two hours, classless to ask people to leave, we ordered additional glasses of wine and dessert which the dessert was disappointing, I've eaten many flourless chocolate cakes and this was so dry and crumbly, mediocre at best. They could care less about your experience it was more about how many times they can turn the table over and charge $80 per couple. We won't be back, Italian in Miami is highly competitive I'd rather spend an extra 50 bucks on another restaurant than this place that is just okay. Another trendy social media miss! read more

Went on 8/17. Not what I was expecting. Food was decent but not excellent. The wine is delicious, but overpriced. The place is small, and vibrant, but will get loud when every table is full. The cotoletta was not as tender as I'd like, the crunch from the breading was the hilight of the dish, but it was not very flavorful overall. At $80 for a meal for two, I did get value and satisfaction from the meal. I'd like to try it again and see if it improves since it was overall decent. The wine is delicious, but overpriced. They charge $45 for a bottle that costs $16 at the local Total Wine. I expect to pay more for wine in a restaurant, but not three times it's cost. At the most, that Poggio Scudieri Chianti should be no more than $24 in a restaurant for the bottle. At $45, That's a ripoff! The sides were very good. The Arancini is the clear standout! The pasta had great flavor and it was al dente since it is clear they use dry pasta instead of fresh pasta which overall is not a bad thing. I like both fresh and dry pasta. In this case I feel it fits the course since the sides are all very texture forward and having al dente pasta is the right choice! The pasta sauce was good! The bruschetta was good but too small, and the zucchini fries were a fun crunchy side. Your experience may vary. I will be back to try it again to see if maybe they were not on point that day, but I will NOT be getting the wine. As good as it is, the $45 charge for it is absurd. read more

Went to Cotoletta with my grandma & boyfriend for the huge milanesa and it did not dissapoint. There is no physical menu, the server tells you what's available. The milanesa was pretty pricey ($80) but it was worth it for a one time thing. The tiramisu was amazing as well! Definitely give it a try. read more

Food was very good! Service was decent. Unique experience as they only have one protein , veal cutlet. One price for two people. Not sure what they do when one person goes alone. Sides were ok. A little pricey for what it is. May return if I ever have a craving for a nice veal cutlet. read more

We liked it. My husband and I went without reservation on a Saturday around 6:30 and were seated right away. Unique concept, something different. I like good and simple and this places has it. The starters were yummy and the milanesa was also good. I like milanesa so I think if that's gonna be the only option you have to like it. The sides were fine we had the bolognese pasta and the zucchini. We didn't have dessert but we had a beer and a glass of white wine. Pretty good. I'll go back. read more

10/10! The menu is pretty much pre-fix, with your option to select your sides (5 options). Perfect spot for date night with your boo, or intimate dinner with close friends. The ambiance has a NYC vibe and the food quality is straight out of an Italian kitchen. Most of the waiters are handsome Italian men as well, so ladies - feast your eyes not just on the food. Can't wait to come back. read more

I truly love Cotoletta! The menu is very small but the food is delicious! Can't wait to go back!

I happened upon Cotoletta when I was in Coconut Grove last weekend - there was a crowd outside this little place that intrigued me. As we had just eaten , we began talking to the proprietor and asked to look at a menu for future consideration. He pointed to a big blackboard with a single item and an $80.00 price. -He explained that they serve a single dish - Veal Milanese with appetizers and sides -and the price was all inclusive FOR TWO! A server walked by with a beautiful platter of Veal Milanese that would overwhelm Fred Flintstone -- we decided to come back later in the week and made a reservation The proprietor greeted us warmly and sat us right away. I had a glass of Chianti (decent and well priced). A platter of (2) small bruschetta arrived shortly after along with (2) arancini (rice balls) The bruschetta had a very fresh well balanced flavor of tomato, basil garlic and olive oil- delicious I'm not a big rice ball fan. But they had a good flavor Shortly thereafter came the platter with a beautiful veal Milanese that was so large it spilled over every edge of the plate - , along with our sides of an arugula salad and pasta with a bolognese sauce The veal was perfectly seasoned and cooked - golden brown crispy coating The edges weren't overcooked and the meat at the bone was slightly pink . The sides were ok -pasta was Al dente and salad a simple arugula with cherry tomatoes- next time I'll just order (2) arugula salad sides and cover the veal with it . I had Tiramisu for dessert which was Tasty but not a highlight Definitely will make return visits- it's hard to find consistently good Milanese -Cotoletta has it down pat. read more

Thank you, Sebastian, Ivette & Nina read more

What a fantastic experience! The cotoletta alla milanese is their signature and only entree, but it's done exceptionally well. The breading was light and crispy, while the veal soft and juicy. The antipasta was arancini and a focaccia with fresh tomatoes and mascarpone, which were equally delicious. Our sides were the arugula salad and the bolognese. They were simple, yet fresh and scrumptious. For dessert we had the tiramisu and chocolate cake. A perfect way to end the meal. The service was also quick, attentive, and polite. Can't recommend this restaurant enough! read more

Fantastic dinner. Expected it to be far more simple, but there were choices and options and plenty of variety.

This place is amazing. They have an amazing deal for two! We even took some home. Beautiful weather in miami this December to sit outside and people watch and enjoy delicious food. I recommend this place for lunch or casual dinner, it's in a great location. Great addition to the grove read more

Perfect neighborhood addition! We've needed something with character and at a decent price point. Everything was good, including wine. Also walked out of there stuffed, portion is more than enough. read more

Amazing place. You have very little choice as everything is centered around their one dish: Veil Milanese. It's excellent. You get sides and appetizers with a prefixed price of 80 bucks. Great service! Wonderful Ambiance! I will come back! read more

This is such a great new gem / hot spot in Coconut Grove!! There is only one menu item at this restaurant (it's absolutely fabulous!). It's $80 for two people ($40 pp) and it includes one main dish - Milanese which is only veal, a bruschetta and arancini appetizer plus two sides of your choice (we got the pasta and salad). Some reviews say you can choose between chicken or veal Milanese as your main - this is not the case. It is a great amount of food for this price point. Dessert and wine are not included in the $80. They have a fantastic wine selection and I learned from a friend you can bring your own wine and they will cork for you but not sure if there is a corkage fee. I am also not sure what happens on the pricing if you come with a group of 3 or as a party of 1. All in all, this was one of the best meals we've had in a while in the Grove! We were able to walk in and get a spot outside. read more

We came to eat for Mother's Day and we loved it. The veal was the only entree on the menu and it was excellent. The bruschetta and arancini were very good too. We loved the spicy pasta and meat sauce pasta. Good service and friendly staff. We will definitely will be back! read more

This place has really delivered. Although the menu is limited it has been executed with perfection. No complaints. More so, the ambiance is welcoming and the Andrea, the owner, makes you feel like you have returned home for a special meal. Lovely experience. read more

My reviews are always honest. And I believe that this place has a lot of potential. It is an adorable space, the service was nice, and professional. You cannot beat this deal, it is a A LOT of food for $80 for two. I would recommend you definitely try it out. The food was good, my problem is, I am all or nothing, and if it's not amazing , I do not come back. However, I would give THIS place another chance. The starters were great. Very well prepared. The main meal is what I felt was bland. The quality of the meat was good, but it really has no flavor. We found ourselves drowning in lemon. The pastas were simple and good, again nothing out of this world... maybe we went on an off night, and I will be back to give it another shot. Try it. It does have potential. read more

the food is the most amazing taht i try in my life, the service perfect, the location is very nice, 100% recommended ;)

Such a simple concept executed with amazing service, quality and ambiance. Highly recommend! Everything on the menus is exquisite!

Such an amazing concept idea that is executed amazingly! The vibes of the restaurant make you feel as though you're in a small locale in Italy. The antipasti (apps) of two truffle fries riceballs and the bruschetta were amazing and I wanted to ask for more!! The main - the cotoletta - being born in Italy and now living in the states tastes just like on you'd get in Milan!! ** Make sure you add the lemon and rosemary on top to pull it all together ** Overall, great service, great vibes and amazing food! read more

The service, food and vibe was great! If you love veal Parm, this is the place to go! The concept of a single item to choose from was unique and it works. You get one entree veal parm to share, 2 starters, and two sides (the zucchini fries are a must) enjoy. read more

wonderful restaurant. food wonderfully prepared and the staff is very attentive. My wife does not eat meat so they made her a vegetarian pasta. My son and his friends had a wonderful time too. Definitely recommend but go in knowing that there is essentially one entree choice---a perfectly made veal Milanese. read more

Great food & service! Love the concept of only having one thing on the menu. Fun place to go with friends!

First time I visited Cotoletta, it was great! Wonderful food (except for the dessert), great pasta, wonderful flavors, enjoyable wine, cozy atmosphere, efficient/ friendly service. Second time.....not so great. The veal was extremely salty and the service was rushed (they had just opened). Will there be a third visit....I don't think so. Also, I gotta ask (perhaps I'll never know).....why did the waiter change the music (soundtrack to Once Upon a Time in America) to bossa nova immediately after I mentioned how beautiful it was?? It was so strange....I tell the waiter I love the music, he walks to the back, and it changes mid song. Mamma mia,!!! You can't be nice in Miami!! read more

Pleasantly surprised. I first saw this restaurant on an Instagram page dedicated for quality local Miami restaurants. These Instagram shout outs are hit or miss, so I had no expectations but was interested enough to check it out. I liked the idea of a preset menu ($80 for 2 people) and figured a restaurant that specializes in only a few dishes must have them close to perfected. I was not wrong. Upon arrival, I immediately could tell it was going to be a good night. People spilled into the street outside waiting for their tables (you know it's going to be a good restaurant when the people exiting have a huge smile on their face). The small tables outside consisted of joyful people drinking great wine and eating good food. Inside, a warm lit room full of the same. It passed the vibe check. 10/10 would recommend to any group of friends wanting to spend a good, chill time or a couple/date. It's not a *dressy* (Miami dressy) place, but you still want to look cute and put together. As to food, alcohol and service, please see below: Menu/Food: Cotoletta has a small pre-fixed menu with a few customizable options. They specialize in a few select dishes. First, the meal begins with specialty Olives, bruschetta/tomatoes, and arancini over a bed of creamy parmesan - all of which were delicious. A huge Milanesa is the only entree available (more than enough for 2 plus leftovers). You have the option of either penne pomodoro, fries, zucchini fries, and/or arugula salad (choice of 2). We chose the fries and the pomodoro. Only critique of the entire meal is that I do not believe the pasta used was slow dried nor ancient grain. It would be preferable an experience upgrade. Besides that, the rest of the meal was excellent. Alcohol: The alcohol selection mimics the menu - a few quality selections (extra charge). You have a few items, including red wine, white wine, champagne, prosecco, coffee, tea (I cannot recall if beer was included). Nonetheless, there is no wine list. You have the option of red or white. We chose red, and it was a reasonably priced Chianti Clasico. It had a bold, dry flavor profile that paired perfectly with the meal and served as a refreshing burst of tannins in between bites. Service: Service was great as well. Very professional and responsive. Attentive. Overall Impression: This is one of those restaurants that starts out small, specializes in a few quality dishes, and ends up expanding in location, food selection, and success - with the Milanesa being their OG story. Can't wait to go back! Niurys R. read more

One of my favorite places in Miami! I am here about every other week at this point and I never get tired of the menu, I actually crave it more. It has an incredible staff, delicious food and is an absolute vibe. read more

This restaurant did not disappoint! My daughter/son-in-law had actually seen the restaurant on IG and wanted to go when they came into town during the holidays. So glad we decided to go as from beginning to end the service, telephone communications as to your reservation, the way they greet you when you arrive (brings back fond memories of Italy), are just exceptional. The quality of the food was fantastic. The veal was flavored perfectly, we were a larger group and, therefore, we ordered all of the sides in order to taste a variety, and the sides did not disappoint. The wines that are offered are paired very well with the meal. We will definitely be returning and soon. Ottimo lavoro Cotoletta! read more

Delicious food great service and ambience. Their service is perfect. Our food came out perfectly. Owners are super nice.
