    Fratesi's is the perfect addition to Downtown and hits the mark on the food, service and atmosphere. The restaurant is small but feels very welcoming and has an old school pizza place vibe. All of the staff and servers were great as well. For food, we got the tahini Cesar and half demon pig girl and half San Gerrano. Both were delicious. The crust is perfectly crispy and the toppings don't overwhelm the pizza. This place lives up to the hype and I will be back! Be sure to order head or make a reservation though, it is still crowded

    Really delicious NJ style pizza - loved the vodka pizza (saucy), demon pig boy (pepperoni and Calabrian chili oil), demon pig girl (sausage and hot honey), and Carmelita (like a margherita). We started with the tahini Caesar salad and paired our meal with cokes. Great thin, crispy, tavern style pizza!

    I feel confident saying this was the best pizza I've ever had in my life. We ordered for takeout. The order was supposed to take close to an hour, but we got the "pizza is ready" text within 30mins. My only regret is that I didn't order another pie. I can't wait to go back.

    We had a great time at Fratesi! A bit of an adventure to find, i suggest parking about 5 minutes away in a garage and then walking. There is a nice old school tavern restaurant as well as outdoor seating. We sat outside. The hostess and waitress were very friendly and accommodating. They let me wait at the table longer while my friends were stuck in traffic. We started off with the tahini caeser. I was a bit reluctant after reading the reviews online, but it is a MUST GET if you like caesar and tahini. The nutty notes really come through and i love the crunchy breadcrumbs atop the fresh salad. The perfect pairing to a any pizza. For pizzas we had the vodka pie and the demon pig boy. We ordered extra hot honey and drizzled it over the vodka pie it is sooo good. The pizza is thin and crispy with no flop. The sauce is properly spiced. The demon pig boy has a bit of a spicy kick. It is very tasty with the pepperoni, chili oil, and peppers. It was a bit too much for my palate, i preferred the vodka. It's nice to have a simple pie sometimes. I would definitely return for another caesar and to try the carmelita!

    Tahini Caesar Salad

    Fratesi's Pizza absolutely lives up to the hype. I went on a Sunday afternoon, was able to walk in without a reservation and get seated immediately at the bar, huge plus. While afternoons are easy for walk-ins, I highly recommend making a reservation if you're going for dinner after 5pm, as that's when they start taking reservations and the place really fills up. We started with the tahini Caesar salad, which was an excellent and a great way to kick things off. For pizza, we ordered a half plain pie and half pepperoni with hot honey, plus a whole pie with sausage, peppers, and onions and a bolted of white wine. Every single slice was delicious. The crust is very thin and very crispy, almost cracker-like in the best way possible. Zero flop, the slices hold up perfectly. The vibe is also a win. It feels like an old-school pizzeria / classic Italian restaurant. Can't wait to come back.

    Outstanding New Haven bar pie. Every bite is full of CRUNCH and jammed pack with flavor. There's no flop. This pizza is as stiff as a cracker, but the crust is all pizza crust. Also keep in mind that the salad dressings are homemade and well worth trying. The Caesar salad and a plain pie are my go-to items.

    Really enjoy this thinner style of pizza. Reminds me of a good new haven style pie! They prepare it thin and bake it hot so the bottom is ever so slightly charred and the results are delicious. The menu is pretty simple with a few salads and a few pizza options - and the pizzas and salads themselves are pretty simple. This works well here, they give the pizza itself an opportunity to shine. Service was good and we were seated promptly at the time of our reservation, which it's advisable to have. Cute ambiance inside is homey and reminiscent of an old school pizza parlor. A good experience!

    Service was great. Food was fresh. Crust was so crispy. Good amount of toppings. Would definitely recommend to try.

    Good crispy pizza again. Got the demon girl and it was good but needed more hot honey. Salad has gotten even better than last time. Looked so much bigger with more cheese and croutons. YUM!!!!

    Fratesi's absolutely delivered. The pizza was perfectly crispy--when you lifted a slice, no flop. The option to do half-and-half pies was a huge win since I went with friends and we wanted to try multiple combinations. This is a classic, old-school pizza spot tucked into a slightly sketchy part of downtown Miami. Inside feels like an old diner--checkered tablecloths, wooden chairs, nothing fancy. Just a chill, no-frills vibe that lets the pizza do the talking. The pizza itself is thin, crispy!! No fancy ingredients, no overwhelming menu. You start with a basic pie and add toppings for about $2-$3 each, which keeps things simple and focused. But let's talk salads, because they're unexpectedly excellent. The arugula salad is simple but so fresh -- just crisp greens with lemon, olive oil, and shaved Grana Padano that tastes incredibly bright alongside the rich pizza. And the other green options (including their Caesar-style salads) are very well-made and refreshing; They have four or five beers on their menu as well as a couple of red and white wines as well. Pro tip: make a reservation. We had one for 9:00 PM and showed up on time, but the hostess was incredibly kind and suggested we wait in case of a cancellation--and it worked. We got a table shortly after. Huge thanks to her for being so accommodating.

    I had been wanting to go to Fratesi's for some time and I finally got the chance a couple of weeks ago and I am glad that I did. The decor of the restaurant feels like an old school pizzeria/Italian restaurant and I absolutely loved it because you feel like you're in another era and it is just a chill vibe. We got the demon pig boy and I loved it as I love spicy food! If you do not like spiciness, this is not the pizza for you. I thought it was delicious and I am very much into the thin crispy pizza these days. We got a bottle of white wine that was nicely priced in my opinion and tasted yummy. Our server was helpful and polite, absolutely no complaints there. The overall experience was wonderful and I will definitely be coming back for more pizza and hoping to try out the Caesar salad next as well!

    Yes Fratesi's Pizza is that good. A great bar thin crust pizza with delicious toppings and a perfectly charred bottom that leaves your mouth salivating for more. And yes it is also a real pain to get a table here. The reservation system is cutthroat and once you get to the restaurant you will most likely have to wait a bit for your table and also wait a bit for the food to come out. My advice is to make a reservation for right when it opens and then still show up 20 minutes before that. Any other method and you will be waiting at some point in the process. The restaurant is good though, decorated like an old school bar with brickwork and posters about. The booths feel private and comfortable for four people. And the wait staff is pretty nice considering there's probably a lot of people who are constantly upset. But overall the pizza is good and worth coming to. Just make sure you're not in a rush.

    Cheese pizza with onions
    Sophie S.

    Hands down the best pizza in Miami. This place has it all. Friendly and quick service, old school pizza parlor yet cool atmosphere, and fantastic food. The menu is limited but clearly everything on it is a hit. The crust on the pizza was so crispy, even the parts with sauce were still crispy and flaky on the bottom. Perfect sauce cheese ratio. We also got the chili oil to put on it- elite. And the tahini caesar salad?! I never want any other salad in my life. Could eat this meal every day.

That experience was a little better. Back then, I had no idea Joe's was a chain from NY because my experiences in LA were so mediocre. But it became nostalgic to me because it was the only pizza spot during the pandemic that got better while other spots got worse so I started ordering more regularly. I was happy to see Joe's here and this time I had to come back for a third time in Miami. The Caprese pie was my favorite. The ingredients here are way fresher than anything I've had in the west coast and the location was much cleaner as well! In general, we were disappointed with Miami's food selection but Joe's in Miami is where it's at! The service was average. They were friendly the first time but not so much the other times. The pizza was amazing though and that's all that matters.

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.
