    Funushi pizza with mushrooms
    Mary F.

    The service was good. The food was OK. Nothing to write home about. I had a lasagna small portion i felt it was lacking flavor. My friend order a funmish pizza with mushrooms it was a bit salty I must say. What i enjoyed the most was penna cotta. That was very good.

    Absolutely delicious pies. The service was very attentive and quick. Great portions, fantastic quality and such interesting ingredients! I would definitely come back. The restaurant itself is a little small, and it's VERY loud in there. But considering they have Flanigans close by and it was packed - you know they're doing something right.

    Pasta Carbonara
    Karyna V.

    Meeting some friends for lunch and this place didn't disappoint! Food -- All plates were big enough to share and presented beautifully. I had the pasta carbonara. It was incredibly creamy, the bacon was flavorful and the pasta was cooked to perfection...a perfect pasta dish! My other friends ordered from salads to the chicken parmesan and all of it looked as savory as mine. Ambience -- Very welcoming and impeccably clean. It is not a big location but it was ample enough that no-one in my party felt cramped during our stay. They have a semi-private area that accommodated all 16 of us. Service -- The server was knowledgeable of the menu, accommodating to our needs, and made some incredible suggestions of food and drinks based on what are cravings were. Overall, the service was how it should be -- pleasing, friendly and welcoming! I truly loved this place enough to go back with my family...truly a delicious treat!

    This place is absolutely delicious. The Food was amazing and quite reasonably priced. All of the servers were friendly and so efficient! The place has a modern, feel, but the dishes are definitely traditional and authentic. Thursdays they have a ladies night with all the wine you can drink with an entrée and on the 19th of every month you can buy one pizza and for .19 cents a second pizza will be given to a child in need. What an amazing concept !

    Can't believe I had never been here! If you're in the mood for Italian food this is a great spot in Pinecrest. The mall's facade is under construction but don't let that dissuade you. The inside is inviting with what appears to be a full service bar at the entrance. There are plenty of tables and some booths towards the back. Service was attentive but not overbearing. Everyone was very happy with their order. Great pizza, penne rósate (pasta with smoked salmon), bruschetta (of course), meatball appetizer with focaccia, traditional lentil soup, and caprese. All was delicious and appeared very fresh. We skipped dessert this time but I'm planning on returning to try their Nutella pizza with some coffee. Yum!

    Amazing service! They are pet friendly and the server even brought a bowl of water for our dog. The salad with chicken was delicious, the pizza yummm and the lasagna my husband absolutely loved... it is perfect for the family! We will be back for sure!

    Delicious thin crust margherita pizza
    Maria F.

    I ordered two margherita pizzas and a half dozen garlic rolls. The pizza was cheesy, thin crust, and just the right amount of sauce. The sauce was very amazing. It was tangy not sweet and the ratio of sauce to bread to cheese was well balanced. Every slice has a piece of fresh basil. The taste is amazing. The crust is crunchy and soft in the middle. The garlic knots are soft, fresh Parmesan cheese and definitely not oily. They have specials that make ordering from here a no brained. Will definitely continue to make this my go to pizza place.

    Bologna pizza

    Back at my favorite place!! Food was delicious and the service 20/10. Highly recommended

    First time having dinner at their Pinecrest location which was just as delicious when I was first introduced to Piolas in Brickell. Our server was fast and friendly. Saw we had a toddler and got the orders back on the double. Nicole has their draft IPA from Lagunitas-one of her favorites. I had a 3 hour run Sunday morning to complete so I stuck to a large bottle of San Pelegrino. The pizza had ham, artichoke and olives on it. The salad had salmon, Brie, tuna, and eggs amongst the arugula. We enjoyed our night out. Definitely would come again. A very kid friendly environment. I liked being seated in the booth.

The…read morefood is consistently good, with fresh ingredients and solid portion sizes that make it feel like you're getting great value for the price. The menu has a nice variety of options, so it's easy to find something you're in the mood for whether you want something light or a more filling meal. Everything comes out quickly, but still tastes like it's made with care rather than rushed. The atmosphere is relaxed and casual, making it a perfect place to grab a quick lunch or an easy dinner without spending a lot. Overall, it's a reliable go-to when you want good food that won't break the bank.

    I visited Lucali Miami in advance of a cruise and to no small degree planned my day around dining…read morehere! So my very high level of anticipation may certainly be partially to blame for my average-ish experience. I was pleasantly surprised to get a table with no wait at ~6:30 on a Wednesday evening. Staff were attentive and friendly. Prices were high, as expected, but at least the pizzas are of reasonable size. The $32 pasta portion probably could've been a bit more generous. But anyway, on to why we're all here - The Pizza: The crust had a great crunch but I felt lacked nuance beyond that, no chew and a touch on the dry side. Cheese and sauce were fine but also unremarkable. The heaps of basil provided some bright freshness that was definitely appreciated. I feel even more compelled now to try the NYC location for comparison! This wasn't a bad pizza by any stretch but not something I would ever pick over my favorite NYC standouts.
