Would only go back for the calamari, which was one of the best I've had. The pasta was not to our liking. RIGATONI ALLA VODKA was mediocre, and the carbonara was just bad. Tiramisu was good and softened the blow of that horrible let down of the main course. Service was fine. The place was empty when arrived but had cute decor. Would not recommend for a full meal. Literally only the calamari was amazing. read more

Cacio e Pepe - Wine menu - Italian Near Me - North Miami Beach, Florida

We celebrated my son's birthday here this year. He wanted Italian and I wanted to try out this restaurant. We called and asked if reservations were needed and I was told yes so I made a reservation. When I arrived at the restaurant (15 min early) there were only two tables occupied so I was a bit confused on why I need a reservation, but ok no problem. We placed our appetizer and food order. The only issue we had was that my husband ordered Churrasco that was on the menu and what he received what looked like a rib eye steak. My husband said it tasted more like a pork chop. We called the waiter over and he said we had two choices return the food and order something else or get a free dessert. My husband hates returning food so we took his meal home and got a free dessert. Service was okay no issues there. It was not a bad time, but it wasn't also a great time. read more

4.5/5 One of the best pastas I have ever had! The rigatoni was not overcooked and the vodka sauce was a creamy delight. I didn't know complimentary bread could get any better than this honestly. It came with a delicate cheese spread but I opted for dipping my bread in the vodka sauce. The was only one man working in the front. After I sat down and placed my order, the food came out in 4 minutes. The service was rather quick and efficient. However, there were two girls that were finishing their meal as I walked in, leaving me, the only person left. I'd love to come back again if I find myself in the area again. Food was fulfilling and worth the $25! read more

Service was bad and food was expensive. So I am not returning, as there are a lot of better options

After a long day unpacking and building furniture, Amber and I wanted a hearty meal and Italian seemed fitting. We googled some neat by places and Caccio e Pepe being Amber and my go to dish we decided this place sounded perfect if they named their restaurant after it. We were not disappointed. The presentation was table side and the portion was so big that we had split it and still didn't finish. We also ordered the muscles and clams which were also amazing along with a bit of wine for a perfect evening!. read more

We chose this restaurant due to the fact it was named Cacio e Pepe because we both adore that dish. I wasn't expecting much, but again this is another example of a pretty establishment with below average food and horrible service. We ordered a coke and wine and had to ask our server 4x for the coke. We finally got to ordering and tried the Cacio e Pepe, chicken parm and the cheese ravioli. There was honestly nothing special about the flavor of any of the bland entrees and the pasta was over cooked. I wouldn't even call it average. Not worth dining here due the hefty price-tag and awful service. read more

First thing only 1 other table being occupied, I should have trusted my gut when I saw this! The server was pleasant enough suggested to us calamari right off the bat Came back and sorry they didn't have! So my grandaughter said she would have the octopus when he offered instead! After 1 bite it was so rancid I am still feeling ill. We had also ordered ribeye steak server said was very tender , first of all it was a well done strip steak, which could not get knife through. Son Ordered gf pasta that was gummy and stuck together, that he said tasted like chicks up Unfortunately I would never go back which is sad we like to support local restaurants. Even when leaving still no one else there. Time to close this restaurant! read more

Oh my goodness. This place is phenomenal. If you're looking for some good authentic Italian food.. this is 100% the place. I'm surprised it doesn't have more business!! Let's start off with the most important aspect of a restaurant: the food. They give you the most delicate bread with an amazing dip.. not sure what it's called but I loved the immaculate flavors it gave my taste buds. For my entree, I got the 4 cheese Gnocchi with chicken with some sprinkled parmesan flakes. With each bite, I was transported to culinary heaven, feeling almost as if I was floating. I've had excellent gnocchi back in my home state.. but this.. just made it seem bland. It was truly remarkable. My father got the fettuccine alfredo and from what I could get a taste of, it was excellent. I could cry because I'll probably never be able to come back here since I reside in plainness michigan Next, let's move on to the ambiance. The decor is so authentic and well-thought-out that I feel like I've been transported to a cozy Italian villa! Lastly, the service. Everyone is incredibly kind, polite, and gentle, which truly enhances the dining experience. Good bye. read more

Confused! They don't have a full bar , they only offer wine , beers and prosecco. We went for a late lunch, we order fried calamari and it was tasteless, we had to add pepper and salt to the sauce to make it ok, my husband order spaghetti bolognese (he asked for them to give him spaghetti instead of the original pasta they offer with bolognese) this plate was better but also nothing remarkable. Service was good , ambience was ok , we were the only costumers at the restaurant so there was no ambience, nice decor and good music. read more

The food was very good. I had the polenta with mushrooms. Others had chicken parm, everyone's food was delicious. Prices were high for a strip mall restaurant. Service was not the best. Not very hospitable, not very attentive. We had limoncello, which is normally served gratuitously after an expensive Italian meal. Nope. 12.00 a shot. The bill comes with gratuity already added, there were 6 of us.. that's ok, but they still had the 22%, 25% and 30%! (Never have I seen 30 before) by the total as if there was no pgratuity added. I will go back for the polenta, but not for a nice dinner with friends. Too many places to eat in miami that offers the same price with better service and nicer ambiance. read more

Wow what a let down. My husband and I came with our daughter because we love Italian and decided to try this new spot in our area. Our server Jose E, was incredibly rude from the get go. It felt like we were judged from the second we walked in the door. My husband and I were in the business for a LONG time and have both managed restaurants. We sat down and both ordered a peroni and a buratta appetizer to start. He an accidentally placed my beer near the baby which is no biggie, I don't fault him for that. But I went to move the beer further away and didn't realize the tables pushed together were uneven and the entire beer spilled over. I told him about the spill and he just kind of walked away. Didn't offer to help with napkins or to bring another beer. I had to reach over to another table to grab a napkin and place setting to replace the drenched one. I then asked for another beer. He continued to ignore us (mind you we were the ONLY table inside the restaurant) there was one other table outside. While the appetizer was delicious we decided to ask for the bill and cancel our food because we just started to feel uncomfortable. He brings the tab and charges me for the beer that was spilled and I had to ask him to remove it. It's unfortunate because the food was really good quality and yummy but the service was beyond terrible and distasteful. Don't recommend because of this. read more

Too pricey for what it is. We order two glasses of wine and then share a clam appetizer and a cacio e Pepe spaghetti. Then finished with two coffees and a tiramisu and we paid $60 per person. I come from Italian heritage and also married Italian and the food was ok. The server was really nice and we sit outside and is cute but the shopping mall where it is located doesn't help. read more

Went here for New Year's day. Wasn't too packed, the place is cute and cozy. Food was good! Beef carpaccio isn't what I'm used to, but it wasn't bad. The bread and parmesan-butter spread is great! But if you ask for more, they charge. Just FYI. They also do not have a kid's menu - they offer a half portion of pasta and sauce, but not meat sauce. They specifically made me aware it was either white or red sauce. My cacio e pepe was good and my husband's penne alla vodka was honestly great! Service was their biggest downfall though. Our server was not welcoming at all, my husband actually thought the guy had an attitude. Also didn't seem to be willing to accommodate us for minor things we asked for. Food was good but probably won't go back. read more

The restaurant has a nice boutique restaurant ambiance and the service was perfect. We were a bit disappointed with the food. It was ok but kind of lacking for the price point and the expectations we had from the vibe of the restaurant. We had the walnut gnocchis ( same sauce as the one they give with bread) and the seafood pastas. read more

The food was delicious and the Cacio e Pepe is prepared tableside which is fun to see. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is nice. We had reservations for an inside table but when we arrived they sat outside and near the parking lot which was unfortunate. The service was slow. They forgot to bring us water, bread, and the wine until we reminded them a few times. Lastly they forgot to process our bill and it took a long time to get our credit card back. To be fair, the restaurant was super busy and they were overwhelmed. Despite the small inconvenience- the manger who was our server was very polite and friendly. I would go back another time to try it when it is less busy. The food is worth it!! read more

I just love Italian places even though don't like Italian food that much. But I know, I will never be disappointed in Italian restaurant. Anyways, we were a group of ten ladies. Everybody was happy with the food, with drinks and with the service, which is surprising :) I had salmon, it was excellent. My friend had shrimp and pasta something. She liked it so much, ordered one to go. We were sitting inside. They do have outside tables also. The place was not overcrowded but comfortably filled. Nice atmosphere, nice music. Beautiful time. No hype, just traditional Italian place. Recommended for a nice quiet tasty dinner. Parking also ;) read more

This place was phenomenal. No one's gonna lie to me and tell me this place is not amazing. You gotta try the. Cacio e Pepe ..

This was so good on a short trip. I got the bolognese and the pasta was so very fresh. My husband got the spaghetti carbonara- super delish. I can't wait to go back. Italian family was cheerful. Drinks were perfectly crisp and cool. Wish I would have taken photos but we were just enjoying the evening together. read more

Mediocre la atención, el mesero que nos atendió parecía nos hacía un favor. Pésima atención, nadie pendiente de la mesa. La comida nada especial. Primera vez que vine y no vuelvo. Falta de personal y el que está, está agotadisimo. La comida tardo casi una hora. Poco más que decir, mi recomendación no venir tristemente, me gusta siempre dar lo bueno de los sitios, pero este lugar no hay por donde agarrar. read more

Cacio e Pepe - Italian Near Me - North Miami Beach, Florida

Very cute hole in the wall Italian gem tucked away in a plaza. My bf and I were looking for last minute dinner plans on a Friday night. We were craving authentic Italian but with a casual atmosphere. Not only did cacio e Pepe measure up but we also felt at home and received generous portions at an insanely fair price. Huge shout out to the incredibly passionate server we had with the beautiful Serbian accent. Her recommendations were accurate but her kind and genuine disposition were so deeply appreciated. Now onto the food...the star of the night was the four cheese walnut gnocchi. Pasta can easily miss the mark when it's overpowering with sauce or even salty but this was cooked to perfection. The truffle pasta was a great IG moment accompanied with the infamous cheese wheel! This is a great spot for locals or anyone looking for a low key Italian dinner with large groups or even an intimate date. read more

Food is amazing and service was excellent. The bread was to die for. We ordered calamari - real fresh. Carbonara was delicious, veal and gnocchi were delicious. It is a bit pricey but it was worth it. read more

The food here was really good. We were a party of 3 and shared the Caesar salad and calamari as appetizers. The calamari breading was crisp, not soggy or overcooked. We all got the cacio e pepe which they assemble in the cheese wheel next to your table, a fun dining experience. The reason I am giving this place three stars is that the service was awful. I arrived 10 minutes before my friends and was offered a glass of water. I expected the server to come back in 3-5 minutes with the water pitcher so I could order my glass of wine as well. She did not come back until 12 minutes later with the water when my friends arrived. The trend continued throughout the meal. As we were wrapping up our appetizers, we had to wave her down to order our entrees. It got to the point where one of us had to get up and go inside to wave her down to order another round. Later, I again had to get up to get her to bring us the check. I am a slow eater and enjoy long leisurely meals. But leaving customers unattended for long periods of time when they need their water refilled, want to order more wine and food, is just bad service business. read more

Came here for Valentine's Day dinner with my boyfriend and had the best experience! The service was great & our waiter was very attentive & even brought me a rose at the beginning of our dinner. We started off with two glasses of wine & the antipasto to share. I got the Cacio e Pepe & my boyfriend got the short rib ravioli. We both loved our entrees and I especially loved that the Cacio e Pepe came in a cheese wheel! Definitely recommend this place for a special occasion or date night! read more

Very mediocre. Ordered the following : cacio e Pepe fried calamari Filet mignon Pellegrino . 1st off. Calamari was like chewing gum. Terrible. The sauce was good, but my wife had to put lemon and salt. Tons of it. 2nd the cacio e Pepe, doesn't live up to what the pasta is meant to be, 1 tone of flavor. We decided to sit outside and the Pellegrino was brought out and left out instead of having it in a ice bucket. By the time we went back it was super hot. The filet mignon was good, we had to send it back for being undercooked. Besides that, it's in a small shopping center which kind of threw us off. read more

Great authentic Italian restaurant. All the food was great. Ordered short rib ravioli, carbonara, cannoli, espresso. Food could have been a little hotter and service could have been a little better, that's why I am giving it a 4 stars, but you cannot find food this tasty everywhere. I will definitely come back. read more

Service was generally bad for the average price of the food. Long wait to get check, incorrect items on the split check, and even a $3 charge for bread that they brought to the table without asking. Water wasn't filled as frequently as we would have liked considering we sat outside. Food was decent though and worth what I paid. read more

Cacio e Pepe - Best Tiramisu - Italian Near Me - North Miami Beach, Florida

First time trying authentic Italian food, was definitely very different then our usual Olive Garden and we were very pleased. The staff was very attentive, we had about 3 different people checking on us. One complaint I would have is the COVID-19 precautions. When we first got there the seating was all spaced out but when more people were showing the spacing was all gone. Some staff were not wearing masks or wearing them below the nose (not our waiter who was great!). Customers who were meeting someone already seated inside just rolled in without masks on. I completely understand how hard covid has been on people but I'd just hope they do better. I would also like to add, the table I was was falling apart a little-- I'll attach a picture of it. Overall -- I'd visit again. read more

Wow, all I can say is WOW! Ok that's not all I can say ;) but this place was amazing! I was a little nervous after reading a few of the negative reviews here but we decided to give it a chance and we are so glad we did!y boyfriend and I just got back from a trip to Italy and we were craving some good Italian pasta after having the best pastas we've ever had in Italy back on October. We weren't expecting to get anything quite the quality of Italy but we both looked at each other as we were eating and agreed the Cacio e Pepe pasta was actually BETTER than the ones we had in Rome!! We were both happily surprised. I got the octopus appetizer which was also wonderful and tender. I had the truffle risotto for my entree and was so happy with it! It wasn't quiteeee as good as the one we had in Florence but it was close! Delicious nonetheless. Honestly we were expecting there to be one thing we didn't like or that was just OK but everything was amazing. The prices are very reasonable too! So happy we found this place and we'll be coming back 100%! Can't wait! read more
