YA GOTTA GO! This is my second time going to this location and I will continue going. The gnocchi is one of the best I've had and it keeps me going back for more. This time, I did take out but the food was equally as delish. The restaurant is cute and quaint and the service is very friendly. The food is also very well priced for the quality. GNOCCHI GRATINADO 11/10 bursting with flavor, soft, and melts right in your mouth! This 4 cheese gnocchi is gooey, sharp, and buttery. I tend to struggle with 4 cheese gnocchi's because I don't like Gorgonzola cheese very much as it overpowers dishes, and thankfully this dish did NOT taste like Gorgonzola:) COSTILLAS DE CORDERO 7/10 Nothing special, they taste how they're supposed to taste. Don't get me wrong they were very tasty but after the bomb gnocchi, I guess I just expected more. However, keep in mind that I did take out so the dish could very well be different at the restaurant. Complimentary bread was soft in the inside and crisp on the outside. The sauce it comes with appears to be a garlic aioli sauce, very garlicky, very flavorful. read more

Absolutely awful experience. Ended up with food poisoning after eating the ice berg wedge salad, and NY strip steak. We're from out of town, so spent the next 24 hours in the hotel room recovering from extreme diarrhea, fever, chills, etc. This was after we changed tables 3 times because the tables were so filthy we didn't feel comfortable having our son eat. Shame on us for not leaving. read more

TALLARINES CON HONGOS 8.4 /10 * (Home made linguini, portobello, porcini, oyster & champig o mushrooms in a malbec creamy demi glaze) - my pick for the night. Came with tons of mushrooms. Sauce was a little bland but I ask for a cup of red sauce and it worked out great. GNOCCHI GRATINADO -/10 * (Fresh ricotta gnocchi, four cheese cream sauce, au gratin.) - the richest thing I have ever eaten. My tongue will never recover. Never had noodles melt in my mouth. I have opted out of score this item since its richness was so powerful. TALLARINES DE ESPINACA BOLOGNESE 7/10 * (Spinach house made tagliatelle in classic veal Bolognese sauce.) - good bolognese but I'm personally into cream sauces. Noodles were fresh and soft. CALAMARES FRITOS 8.3/10 * (Fried calamari, sweet chili & tartar sauces) - mixing the sauce was a power move. Great calamari ICEBERG WEDGE SALAD 8/10 *(Brioche croutons, sun-dried tomatoes, crispy bacon, blue cheese dressing) - great bleu cheese. The crispy bacon was very chonky, not crispy, and smoky. LOMO 8.2/10 * (8 oz. grilled beef tenderloin (*), Malbec demi-glace, truffled french fries, blue cheese) - gorgeous crust on the steak. The truffle fries were strong read more

We came here on a Tuesday night as they offer 1/2 price wine on that day. We were offered a table inside or out and we chose inside due to the heat and humidity. We were offered the Miami Spice menu but it was somewhat limited so we ordered a steak and a preferred pasta dish from the regular menu to share instead. The food was good and service was fast, friendly and attentive througout the meal, but both of us experienced gastric upset later that night from something we'd eaten here. It should also be noted that Novecento has a fairly high markup on at least some wines - to the point where we came here on 1/2 price wine night, and purchased a bottle for about the same price we could get it at other restaurants in Miami at regular price any day of the week. I personally found the menu just a bit limited in selection. A side note: WOW this place gets loud inside and could definitely do with some sound absorbency on the ceilings! There were 2 parties of 4 seated in the middle of the place, and they were talking so loudly that it was deafening The front of this restaurant has floor to ceiling glass windows and the ceiling above the bar and dining area is flat, painted and also reflects noise, causing it to become really loud inside when it's busy. Again, acoustic treatments would work wonders. read more

I went here with a big group during a World Cup game and the ambiance was delightful. They had music and a carnival style dressed woman danced at tables during halftime. Everything that we ordered was delicious, for starters I'd recommend the steak empanadas and the ham and cheese empanadas. They are filled to the brim. I'd also recommend the choripán, the blue cheese French fries and the the gnocchi. Others othered Bloody Marys and they were a hit. The only downside was that it was a little tough to split the check for a big group but that's not uncommon. The server was very personable and friendly. read more

Very nice outside sitting area, quick and pleasant service, overall nice vibes. Good beef empanadas.

In a word everything. The decor is not awful itself, but feels a little industrial, with televisions plunked over the walls. But the service and the food just take it to a different level of bad. Our waitress hadn't the faintest clue to what she was doing. She asked how well done we wanted our carpaccio. She so clearly didn't know what she was doing, I had her recite our orders back to me. How could she mess that up? Good question. How about serving all of the food at one time, appetizers and main course? We had carpaccio, supposedly Argentine beef; a pancho; a filet mignon; and Milanezza Martin. Starting with the semi edible, the fillet was not good, the presentation was awful, stock dry on its own on a black plate, with mashed potatoes in a separate ramekin on the side, and the sad chimichurri sauce also in a separate ramekin, but you could swallow it. Everything else was a disgrace. The milanezza was junk they got out of the fridge and microwave before they planted it on the table. My daughter found it literally non-edible, and she is the kindest of diners. She said it tasted like the fridge... A kind way of putting it The pancho was a profoundly bland hot dog in a stale bun. But the "carpaccio" took pride of place. Simultaneously part-frozen and decaying beef, of which my daughter took a bite, and then was stuck finding a polite way to spit it into a napkin. North of inedible. All of this terrible food was put onto our table at one time, about three minutes after we ordered it, because obviously it had just been defrosted in the microwave. And to add insult to injury, the waitress came by, with a toothy, TGIF smile, and said how are we doing? Bloody awful is the only answer. In a move that clearly reflects where the restaurant is at, I noticed they put 19% automatically on the bill for "service". Then they had the cojones to ask for more of a tip when you sign electronically on the tableside device. I looked at the waitress incredulously with raised eyebrows, and that was that. Never again.

Love the vibe!!!

We were starving and excited when we arrived so unfortunately phone did not eat first on this one but here's what we got: Calamari: asked for it extra crispy and they delivered exactly that. Perfectly breaded and crispy and not tough or chewy. Fettuccine al salmon: This was the star of the night for me. A rich pink sauce with generous chunks of tender salmon I mean they were not shy there. A hint of sweetness with the green peas ofc. Snapper Livornese - perfectly cooked and prepared well. Fish was moist and soft with very flavorful olives that balanced everything out beautifully. They did not offer a printed dessert menu so I'm no sure if it rotates but the options we tried were great! Chocolate mousse 10/10 -- not too rich and perfectly airy Creme Brûlée 10/10 -- perfectly caramelized top, always a classic Service: 10/10 -- the owner was incredibly kind and accommodating, you can tel they truly care about their guests' experience. Food: 9.5/10 - everything we tried hit the spot Ambiance: 8/10 (Small, cozy, and intimate, we went a little earlier in the night but seems to fill up later in the evening) If you're looking for a place that feels intimate and low-key, where you can relax and savor your food without any rush, La Scala is it! Great for date nights, quiet dinners, or just treating yourself to a comforting and flavor packed meal.

This is a hidden gem! The food was all incredible! Service was excellent and we would be back again…read moreand again if we lived here! Just visited on vacation and soooo glad we did!

I ordered the pear and Gorgonzola ravioli and it was absolutely outstanding. Everyone at the table ended up trying it and we were raving about it the entire night. Others in our group ordered the cacio e pepe with a pesto twist, the chicken parmesan with pasta on the side, the feta and spinach stuffed bacon wrapped chicken, and the black squid ink risotto calamari pasta, and every single dish was exceptional. The ambience, quality of the food, and level of service made the entire experience feel like true fine dining. The restaurant was beautiful and spotless, and every detail was thoughtfully done.

Had an excellent experience at Narbona and it absolutely lived up to the hype…read more First off, the service was outstanding. The staff was attentive without being overbearing, genuinely friendly, and very knowledgeable about the menu. You can tell they take pride in what they're serving. I ordered a steak and the temperature was cooked perfectly -- exactly as requested. That's something a lot of places miss, but they nailed it. The sear, the tenderness, everything was spot on. The quality of the food really stands out. You can taste that they're using premium ingredients, and everything feels thoughtfully prepared rather than rushed. Pricing felt fair for the level of quality and atmosphere. You're getting a high-end experience without feeling like you overpaid. And I have to mention the chimichurri -- easily one of the best I've had. Fresh, balanced, and packed with flavor. It elevated the steak even more. Overall, Narbona is a great spot whether you're a local or just visiting Key Biscayne.

That night they outdid themselves! I took pictures of the first few pairings, but the ambience and the music made me forget to take pictures of the rest!

I'm glad I came here after 7 PM on a Sunday cause it usually gets crowded before 6 PM I guess because of the kids and the grown-ups coming from the beach. It wasn't that crowded when I went inside I ordered the usual cheese pizza which was less than $20. The pizza was very good nice and hot. If you don't wanna pay more than $15 for pizza and a drink, then this place is not for you but hey, it's Key Biscayne where everything is expensive. I'm used to paying high prices. Other than that, I'm going to give it five stars. I come here about every other month to about every three months. I prefer this one than the one in Palmetto Bay. For some reason, I can't even order online from the one in Palmetto Bay. It takes me to a somewhat foreign language.

We were advised we'd have to take it to go because they were closing soon (11pm). We received our food and wanted to take a bite of our pizza hot (we had driven all the way from Doral) and was approached by her again letting us know we needed to leave because they closed at 10:30. It was only 10:36. Everywhere states they close at 11, including their own door. She was rude and just had an extremely nasty attitude.
