The service here was beyond amazing. We sat at the bar and got a few martinis while waiting for a table, and the bartenders were super attentive and friendly. The tomato martini was one of the most delicious martinis I've ever had. The cucumber one was also sooo good! Then, the staff who served us at our table were all fantastic! We got beef tartar (delicious) and a bunch of pastas during their pasta night. My fave was the veal ragu one, but I loved all! I'll definitely be back here. read more

Stopped by for a late Sunday brunch and absolutely loved it. The space feels elegant yet friendly; stylish without being stuffy. The service was attentive and welcoming from start to finish, which made the whole experience even better. The food was spot-on: delicious Italian dishes that were refined but still hearty enough to leave you satisfied. You can tell there's real care in both the ingredients and presentation. read more

Such an amazing experience. The quality of the food was top notch with excellent flavors - standouts were the beef tartare, tableside eggplant, sweet corn agnolotti, and the branzino. Service was also A+, so friendly from Madalin and the team. And finally, the vibe was on point! read more

Just when I didn't think there was a worse Italian spot in Miami I find a'riva. I've been seeing ads about their pastatini Wednesday and thought I'd give it a try. I came with two of my friends so we pretty much tried every single pasta on the menu and they were all terrible. Pastas came out cold and mushy. We ordered meatballs but they were really beef arancini. The manager sees that no one at the table has touched their meals so he does take care 2 of the pasta omakase on the bill and at the end we're surprised with $36 charge for bottled still water because they charge $12 per person apparently although all our refills were with tap. Not only will I not be returning but I will not advise anyone to try this out. Plenty of better Italian options in Miami. read more

This will quickly become my go to spot after my first time. Sat at the bar and highly recommend it as the bartenders and very kind and entertaining. We started off with beef tartar and the bread which from the first bite- I knew this dinner was going to be amazing. Bartenders both suggested the same pasta we were curious to try and it was cooked to perfection. I could not leave without trying the pistachio gelato and I would simply come back for that alone. read more

We went for friends and family and were incredibly impressed. We had the ceasar salad which was super crunchy and very fresh. The dressing is delicious. For Antipasta we tried the fried zucchini with tzatziki which i thought was lovely and left me wanting more. The only comment i have was that i would have preferred the sauce on the side so as to be able to dip each piece of crunchy zucchini. We also tried the corn agnolotti with black truffle was perfectly cooked and the flavor was unforgettable. However, the truffle taglioni was my favorite thing of the night. You could tell this pasta was hand made, day off, with lots of love. Absolutely stunning and left me speechless. Dover sole was perfectly seasoned with a lemon butter sauce that we really enjoyed. Lamb chops were well cooked and super tasty and the grand finale for me were the donuts. I loved them. Service was excellent, perfectly timed coursed with subtle presence of the staff. The decor is lovely and the lush foliage in the center of the room was a nice touch. Will definitely be back read more

10/10 everything Food was exceptional and even better service. Incredible drinks. Might be my favorite place in Miami beach. Corn agnolotti is a must try! Not touristy but actually great tasting food! read more

A beautiful experience. I was stunned by the warmth and expertise of the service (Pablo was our main server). Everyone was lovely. Especially loved the tuna carpaccio, Caesar salad, the octopus with the best baba ghanoush I've ever had (I can't recall having better, more tender octopus, either), Dover sole, and the gelato with pistachio drizzle (brilliant, homemade à la minute, and not too sweet or heavy, so it was really in the authentic Italian style). Atmosphere is festive and relaxed, not noisy--exceptional hospitality. read more

Vibe was awesome, service was excellent but food was average. The plates were what you would expect of a sceney Miami place on the salty side with an abundance of truffle but the best things here were the cocktails and after party in the palm room which were worth coming back for. read more

The ambiance, service levels, and food were everything you'd expect! Hosted a business dinner and the staff was amazing, both anticipating and accommodating all our needs. Our server, Virginia was excellent and both managers that night checked on us several times. A couple members of our party were interested in the kosher options and they even took us into the kitchen to show them their setup - over the top!! We had several dishes from each of the courses and there was a standout item in each of these. I didn't grab a pic from the appetizer round but they were good with the Caesar and burrata being my favorites. The spaghetti Nerano and al dente Bucatini were my favorite pasta dishes. The Tomahawk, from Reserve Cut in NYC, which is the most popular steakhouse in downtown, was also amazing and kept our party happy! I didn't get a pic of dessert but the chocolate puff pastry thing was epic, great finish. All in, great experience and food - we'll be back! read more

Swanky restaurant, but this location has never really found lasting success. I was hoping the collaboration with La Natural Pizza would change that, but it fell short. The pizza didn't have the same quality or flavor as La Natural's main location, which was disappointing. The atmosphere and concept have potential, but overall it was just average. I'll come back another time to try their regular menu and see how it goes. read more

Wonderful service and I fell in love with Daniel the manager who was absolutely amazing brilliant and very caring. He took care of our well being. We felt welcomed and cared for read more

Place is a 9.5/10. Service is terrific, drinks are amazing, food is also divine. Confusing members-only dynamic when it comes to access to the other lounge spaces, but doesn't jolt the public dining experience really. Bennett at the bar is super knowledgeable about the area, and Laura is a great server to help clarity items on the menu. Get the Caesar salad and the Sweet Corn Agnolotti. Delish. Definitely worth hitting up. read more

The karaoke guy is very selfish he calls whoever he wants and let them sing as many songs as he wants and for other people he only lets you sing whatever he wants he's not a fair kj you should replace him read more
