    Great place for Happy Hour and if you like Aeperol Soritz! They have a variety and during Happy Hour they are like $6 I think. The pizza was really good. The service was good as well. I absolutely love the Aeperol. Bar. It adds a really nice touch to the atmosphere, ambiance and the look of the restaurant!

    A sign from the sidewalk brought me in. What was on the sign was not on the menu, so ask before you come in and get seated. The music is nice and the service is good. Outdoor seats and indoor seats placed nicely!! Service was great!

    Had a fantastic late lunch here! Ordered carpaccio and a campagna salad which were both excellent. My daughter got a kids cheese pizza and wow, the pizza was outstanding pizza oven quality, something I would have been happy with as an adult! Service was good and everyone at the table loved their dish.

    Food was okay. All the foods they brought out were piping HOT! I ordered the fish entree and the metal dish burned my hand of how hot it was. We ordered fries, and we were blowing the fries in our mouth of how hot those were too! Lobster pasta was tasty and burrata was ok...it had no tomatoes. Not such a great experience, where I'd want to come back, especially with a burn injury on my hand. Also, beware of some extra % they add to your bill!

    In the area for IHeartRadio Fiesta Latina & didn't want to go & spend $$$ around Jungle Plaza so I knew that this area right here has some great places to eat & we came to this one. Restaurant is very inviting & decore is really nice. Servers were very friendly and attentive. For the food yummy!!! I'm so glad we stumbled upon this one!

    I stumbled upon an ad for Italica on Instagram while I was in Miami and immediately thought it looked like the perfect place to treat my hosts to brunch. The video was so inviting and really set high expectations! We arrived at Italica Midtown Miami on a Saturday at noon for brunch. The restaurant was surprisingly quiet at first, but it quickly filled up. Despite the growing crowd, the main dining room maintained a lovely, relaxed atmosphere--it never felt loud or chaotic. The food menu was fantastic, offering something for everyone. You could get anything from traditional breakfast dishes and scrambled eggs to more substantial options like seafood, pasta, steak, and even made-to-order pizza. My only hesitation was the price point. At $32 per person (before drinks), it felt a bit steep for the buffet, but I also understand that's the reality of pricing in Miami today. Despite the cost, the experience was wonderful. It was a pleasant and memorable meal, and I would definitely recommend Italica Midtown Miami for a relaxing brunch.

    Pretty ok menu with different Italian dishes and some more original ones such as the Lamb chops served with pistachio crust and squash purée. Delicious, the arugula salad was a bit too salty though. Service was good, the decoration is nice: very modern

    I was at Italica in Midtown for their new brunch experience and while it is not the best quality food you could have, I can say it's a great deal for the price, $29.99 excluding beverages. I like the food was fresh, specially the fruits, I enjoyed them. Overall, there was a good selection to choose from. My favorite was the Greek yogurt with all the toppings as well as the fresh fruit assortment. The cocktails, Summer at the Corner, were perfectly crafted. They were some sort of spicy watermelon margaritas with tequila and mezcal, just perfect. Service was friendly but the male host has not the best customer service skills, perhaps it is the language barrier. The ambiance is beautiful, peachy/orange shades, with indoors and outdoors seating. Summarizing, I would come back.

    Great Brunch, good options, the meats are great! And the desserts too, service is convenient and fast, the ambiance is comfy and bright. Love the colors, the hostess is the best Mimosas are extra, and well served.

    The new brunch deal on Saturdays at Itálica Midtown is great, for $29 you can experience the all you can eat buffet. You can add on a bottomless Mimosa or Prosecco for $25 or a bless Aperol Spritz for $29, great deal

    Came here with a few friends to try their brunch buffet and had a great time! At $29 for breakfast foods, charcuterie including burrata, salads, pizza, pasta, meats, and desserts, it's a great deal especially considering how expensive Miami can be! There is also an all you can drink addition of $29 for bottomless aperol spritzes or $25 for bottomless prosecco/mimoas. I opted for just the brunch since I was driving home after, but for $25-29 it's also a great deal. The buffet area, like the restaurant, is not huge but it makes good use of the space with everything arranged very tightly in a line. There is basic breakfast food like eggs and bacon at one end (which I ignored), arancini and meatballs right next to it, before it curves into an assortment of breads including fluffy focaccia and the charcuterie area with a nice spread of meats, a few cheese, burrata balls, and a surprisingly nice selection of fresh fruit. The meat section was not huge but included a bit of everything, the day we went it was a nice sauteed lemony chicken and little planks of salmon, and at the carving station long italian sausages and juicy grilled flap steak. The charcuterie selection could have had a bit more of a cheese selection but it didn't look like most of the diners were going at the cheese that much, and anyway, they nicest part was the bowl of burrata and the assortment of awesome condiments like the red pepper pesto, basil pesto, and truffle honey! The grilled meats were especially good with beautifully grilled, rare, juicy and tender flap steak that was great with the big flake maldon salt and the gremolata on the side; the italian sausage was also meaty, juicy and nicely seasoned. The dessert section was big but probably the less impressive of the spreads - the tiramisu mouse was fluffy and had a nice coffee taste but the dulce de leche mousse was a bit heavy on the salt flavor and not that strong on the caramel flavor, and the cannolis were nice but the shells a little soft and the filling not quite as smooth probably from having been sitting out for a bit. Overall, while each individual dish may not be quite as fancy or satisfying as ordering a la carte, that's to be expected of any buffet; the options here hit all the spots with something for everyone, my favorites being the charcuterie with the accompaniments, and the super tender flavorful grilled flap steak. While I didn't opt for the bottomless drinks this time, I definitely plan on it when I come back!

    I always enjoy my bites and drinks when I pop in. My little slice of Italy nestled in midtown. Good service and a really nice atmosphere. I absolutely suggest this to be a place to visit,

When I came last weekend the vibes were great, it was just extremely packed to the point that everyone was grinding up against each other. Which in that moment I didn't care because I figured it's at capacity and that's normal. Although, I realized when I was leaving the bar that someone had opened my purse and taken my entire wallet. I was bummed because I couldn't continue partying up the night. This led me to message them on Instagram, which was great because they told me to come in and drinks would be on them for the inconvenience. We got to the bar and I spoke with the bouncer and he said to go to the bartenders, that they would direct me to Rensel the bar manager. He was absolutely lovely, provided my friends and I a round of cocktails and told us to look for Sophia for another round. We didn't end up getting another round because we were exhausted from dancing the night away. It was still very nice and accommodating that they did that and we appreciated it. Sophia was very bubbly and attentive as well. Overall, if you are looking for a bar with a disco ball!! This is a cool spot to come to, they have so many different specialty cocktails. They are all delicious and unique! The music is great, the dj really keeps the crowd moving. For parking, there is a lot in the back of the establishment or street parking as well.

Seems like they put a spin on the traditional mixtures. Two that stood out to me were the whiskey sour and French martini. Delicious mixtures by bartender Robby. He was attentive and able to answer questions about their cocktail twist. Especially loved that he mentioned their 18% gratuity was already added to the check. We added a little something extra just for honesty :-D Overall loved The Sylvester. Great service, delicious drinks and in my opinion, perfect ambiance.

We only stopped in for drinks, and since we were with kids, we were seated at the tables rather than the bar, which was totally fine.

We arrived on time for our reservation made for "INSIDE SEATING" (note you will have to pay to make a reservation.) The unfriendly hostess walked us to an outdoor table - that despite the multitude of fans - was humid and uncomfortable. When I told her we didn't want a table outside it seemed to bother her and her response: we are really full I won't promise you anything (eye roll) and she proceeds to walk back through the aisle of empty tables to the front desk. Behind us was a couple who arrived AFTER we did. And can you believe they were escorted without an issue to the upstairs INSIDE SEATING dining area - to the very tables they apparently did not have for us!!! I have to wonder if this was profiling or she just didn't like our face? Guess not all guest are created equal here. Forced to seat us inside after my husband showed her the reservation for INSIDE seating she "accommodates" us downstairs next to the bathrooms in a tight miniature table on uncomfortable plastic wicker chairs between two large groups where we couldn't get out of our seat and had the view of a water damaged ceiling over our heads. After what seemed like quite a while the waiter (poor guy) came to greet us. Now this was the only highlight of this erroneous Michelin Star establishment. He seemed overworked with all the tables in that area but was polite attentive and funny. So pleasant that I wonder why he's working in this place. I had to ask for the bread that never came on its own. The drinks were ok. The food: Lobster - the pastry was soggy on the bottom and tasted slightly burnt on the outer crispy corners. The lobster was well cooked and the sauce was good but nothing spectacular. Hanger steak - the steak was very good - cooked exactly as ordered (medium rare). The sweet potato cakes crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside and the mushroom were cooked to perfection. Wish there was more of it, you get 2 sweet potato cakes the size of a strip of gum and 3 mushrooms slices. The halibut - hands down the most delicious thing on the menu. The fish was fresh and the caviar sauce was really exceptional - wish I had a spoon. Chocolate caramel - The dessert was a mix of flavor the chocolate has a tangy taste, the ice cream on the bottom was a nice surprise, however it left much to be desired - we left half on the plate. All in all the front of the house sets the tone and the horrid attitude of the hostess and the way she refused to sit us upstairs in our reserved requested dining area, soured our experience from the start. My understanding is that a Michelin Star is a highly sought status that entails the full experience of a dining establishment and I'm sorry to say they should rethink giving Le Jardinier this award in the future. Don't come here.

Management did nothing to correct her and the missteps with our anniversary reservations. The waiter was friendly and nice. The food was good. Unfortunately the mood had been set already. We ordered a couple of rounds of drinks and split three entrees and desert but nothing else as we really just wanted to get out of there. To be fair, our waiter was very nice and the exact opposite of the front of the house. If you want to eat well (but definitely not near the best in Miami), pay high prices and be treated like a second class citizen, this is the place for you.
