    This was a very nice restaurant. I felt like I was right at my Grandma's house. Everyone was friendly and welcoming. It was small but it was cute and I liked the décor. The bread basket with the oil was very nice and i had a piece with olives inside. The pasta is all homemade here. I had rigatoni all norma with red sauce and eggplant. It was very nice. We also had the tagliatelle with the ragu sauce. It was a meat sauce. It was also very tasty. It was nice to have traditional Italians prepare the meals.

    Probably the closest thing to authentic pasta here in Miami. Every pasta plate was absolutely delicious, great sauces and the pasta was al dente! Good service and it really does feel like you are in Europe, small cozy cute place. Highly recommend

    We came in on a Saturday just before they were about to close. It is on Sunset. A cozy spot for pasta. The place is tiny with a few chairs. I went with the cacio e Pepe rigatoni. The pasta sauce needed more flavor. The pasta did taste fresh though. My friend enjoyed her dish. Overall decent pasta. I expected better taste though. Service was excellent. Casual vibe. Lots of families .

    Un verdadero tesoro escondido. Este restaurante de pasta es pequeño y acogedor, pero con una energía que te transporta directamente a Italia. Desde que entras, sientes ese ambiente cálido, casi familiar, como si te recibieran en una trattoria italiana de toda la vida. Mi plato favorito es la carbonara, cremosa y perfectamente balanceada, pero tengo que decir que la pasta al limón es simplemente única. Refrescante, ligera y con un sabor que no he encontrado en ningún otro lugar. Sin duda, mi nuevo lugar favorito para disfrutar buena pasta y una experiencia auténtica.

    My husband and I have thoroughly enjoyed PastaMia ambiance, yummy dishes, great desserts, superb wine and the exceptional care, attention and love that Carola, her chef hubby and the entire staff put towards making your experience with them, unique and memorable. The whole team works like a well oiled machine, helping each other and each individual being attentive to the needs of the patrons, regardless if they are your server. First time, it was a Friday and we made reservations and second time we just walked in at an early bird time during the week. So, no waiting. It is a popular and well loved place, so reservations are always a good idea. Carola, the owner is so friendly, full of energy and joy and appreciative of every customer all the time. It's quite special to see. We have enjoyed their suppli, tuna tartare, rigatoni cacio e pepe with guanciale, spaghetti with clams, rigatoni alla genovese, tiramisu, pistachio Gelato, EVERYTHING was fresh and delicious. We also loved a wine that Carola recommended, Basileus Terre di Cosenza. AMIAMO TUTTO DELLA PASTAMIA!!!!!

    OH WOW, where do I start? We've been here twice and can't wait to go back! The staff here is incredible. Super attentive and always willing to help you with anything you need. The place is the perfect little hole-in-the-wall you would never expect to fall in love with. The food is fresh, delicious, and the servers are up to the task of helping you pick out some cool wine pairings. I definitely recommend checking them out!

    We went on a Friday night and it was packed. It's very small, so I recommend reservations. Our server was also an owner of the business. She arrives very early and makes six fresh pastas each day. We started off with an order of meatballs. There were 4 of us, and it only came with 3 big meatballs. Since hardly any tables are filled with 3 people, it seems that 4 slightly smaller meatballs would be more appropriate. So I had a half meatball, which was delicious with my bread and wine. I also split a house salad, that was rather ordinary but hit the spot. My husband got the blank ink octopus pasta. We love octopus and have had black pasta before, but never with "octopus sauce". Unfortunately I was having too much fun and his pasta was gone before I got a taste. Obs he thought it was great. Me and a friend each got the eggplant pasta. It was delicious, though I was slightly taken aback that the eggplant was in chunks instead of a parmigiana type eggplant layer. Although I would have preferred a traditional eggplant ptarmigans, the homemade pasta totally made the dish. We were all too full for dessert, and I even took some home to go. We go to South Miami often on Friday nights, so I know we'll be back.

They accommodated our party of eight flawlessly, and to top it off, we even had live music on a Wednesday night. This place is such an incredible wine place with tons of amazing bottles and varieties to choose from. You basically shop around the space, pick out your own wine, and bring it back to the table for your server to open and serve. Everything is organized by region and the prices vary so you can easily find something that fits your taste and budget. Every staff member we encountered was fantastic, and everything we ate and drank was just as good. We started with a red Pinot noir bottle we loved so much that we ended up ordering three more for the table. For food, we ordered several dishes to share: The Marinated Olives which i didn't try these because I'm not an olive person. The Bacon Wrapped Plantains which was such a unique combo, and surprisingly delicious. The Local Burrata which was absolutely delicious. I've never met a pan con burrata I didn't like. The Manchego Croquetas were my absolutely favorite. manchego is one of my favorite cheeses, so I already knew I'd love this. Perfectly balanced, not greasy at all, crispy on the outside, melty and creamy on the inside. The honey sauce on the side was the perfect touch. We also got the Steak Frites & Chicken to share which was super tender, flavorful, and the fries were perfectly crispy, just how I love them. They were out of the yuca bravas, so we couldn't try these but they sound phenomenal. And we couldn't chose what desssert we wanted so we went with all three. The flourless chocolate cake with icecream, the key like tres leche and the guava tiramisu. Alll delicious !! And lastly , i have to highlight Thalia, our server. She was exceptional! Truly a five-star experience for our first visit. She handled our group of eight with ease, was always on top of refills without us having to ask, knew the menu inside and out, and gave amazing recommendations. She made the whole night even better. Can't wait to come back especially for lunch since she mentioned they have great lunch specials. This spot is definitely a new favorite,

Instead, we were sat at the smallest bar seating, which was completely inappropriate and not romantic at all for an occasion like Valentine's Day. As soon as we sat down, I politely asked if we could be moved. The manager then told me that I had booked bar seating, which is simply not true. Why would anyone reserve bar seating a month in advance for Valentine's Day? I checked my reservation confirmation myself and it never stated that, and I even tried making another reservation to verify ..bar seating wasn't even an option. He told us he would "see what he could do," and we were left waiting at the bar with no water, no menus, no service, and no communication whatsoever. Meanwhile, we watched multiple couples get seated at proper tables back-to-back. At one point, we even overheard another couple say their reservation was at the same time as ours, and they were seated at a table immediately. When I tried to politely ask for an update, the manager or owner completely ignored me. No acknowledgment, no apology, nothing. I was honestly in shock at how disrespectful and dismissive they were. We ended up getting up and leaving because of how uncomfortable and disrespected we felt. Valentine's Day is supposed to be special, and this restaurant completely ruined that experience.

The first location in the River is better imo because the location is bigger, there is plenty more seating than the Grove location. Although, I still enjoyed my time at this location as well. Sooo how it works is that you go inside and pick a bottle of wine from the fridges. You can also order by the glass if you aren't a big drinker or if you want to try different wines. The bottles are moderately priced depending on your selection. We chose an orange wine and it was nice, very refreshing, you can really get that citrus essence with every sip. Another thing that they have is that you can pick different cheeses and meats and they will build you a charcuterie board. I love this because it is all based on your selection, nothing will go to waste. They also have food you can order. A lot of people love the nuggets with caviar. I think they are decent imo but I'm not like in love with them. Parking can be a bit annoying... If there isn't street parking, you can also park in the garage. The service was good, the staff was friendly. The only thing that was a hassle was getting a table. We had to wait a bit in order for a table to become available. Overall, this spot is a very cozy place to hang and mingle with friends.

    As others have stated, Magie is good in concept and we'll likely return here, but with just a bit…read moremore effort on their part this wine bar could be so much better IMO. Unlike some other reviewers that scoffed at the prices of the wine, that didn't bother me so much. We had a bottle here that cost $55 and it retails for about $28; I was OK with that, as all restaurants and wine bars have a markup above retail, and even when you go to spots like Happy Wine or El Carajo and pick out a bottle to drink while in their shop, they charge a corkage fee for that. What I did have a problem with is that, after the "service charge" and other fees were added on, our $55 bottle rang up to more than $73 in total, which was ludicrous. When we first arrived at Magie we were met by a young guy who pointed out the bottles and where the various charcuterie items are located in the coolers, and we were then pretty much left on our own. We really just wanted a glass of wine each, but unlike places like Vinoteca, here at Magie they had a very limited selection of wines by the glass, and the ones available all seemed to come in single-serve cans. We picked out a bottle to share, went to the register, paid and the guy opened it and handed us 2 glasses. When I returned to get napkins, the guy just motioned to where the napkins were so I could grab my own (after moving a delivery cart out of the way by myself so I could reach them). Again, though this place includes an automatic "service charge", we received zero actual "service" unless one considers the 45 seconds it takes to uncork our bottle and charge us for the purchase. We had a seat, had a glass of wine each and then re-corked our bottle of wine and took it with us. Overall I think Magie is a great concept with lots of potential. The inside seating area is interestingly decorated and outfitted with lots of eclectic furniture and items on the walls, and the relatively large patio seating out front with tables for 2 to 8 people is shielded from the adjacent street/traffic and shaded by lots of trees and greenery. The ambiance overall is really very nice. The service, however, was non-existent, especially considering the automatic charge for that, and while prices of at least some wines aren't terribly out of line, the fact that all the service charges, taxes and fees added $20 to the cost of our bottle was a bit of a shocker. Magie should consider adding more wines by the glass IMO. Not just subpar quality single-serve cans, but decent wines, poured from a proper bottle with a topper that preserves the wine between pours like most every quality wine bar commonly offers. Lastly, while I don't think anyone expects linen napkins and white glove service, the paper plates and plastic cutlery customers are given to eat with are a bit off vs. what this place appears to be trying to be and the prices charged. The "F*ck Brunch" positioning statement on the back of the staffs' shirts was an interesting touch.

We've come here a few times, our dog was welcome, staff were friendly and outgoing, offering us various tabletop games like tic-tac-toe to pass the time, and once we'd both ordered a few glasses of wine, they offered us complimentary popcorn - something they normally charge for. Wines on their "by the glass" menu average about $16 each, and most staff pour them behind the bar where they have a gauge to measure out each one. The food prep area behind the bar is quite small (which is why they don't have a large menu), but so is this little gem of a wine spot in general. It's cozy, eclectic and great for a glass of wine and a small snack, or a nightcap after having dinner elsewhere. It's good for singles at the bar, or an intimate spot for couples and smaller groups. Vinoteca seems to have found their niche, and they've filled it quite nicely. That said, I'm not sure the staff, at least the ones working on the nights we've come, have a lot of knowledge about wines or are in the position to talk at length about their various selections.

Upon being seated, we were provided with the regular menu and the Miami Spice Lunch menu. The Miami Spice Lunch, which has now become a daily Executive Lunch special, is a standout value. The portion sizes and the quality of the Argentinian steaks speak for themselves. As a group, here's what we ordered: Starters - Ham and Cheese Empanadas - Morcilla - Grilled Provolone Each starter delivered exactly what you'd expect from an Argentinian steakhouse. The empanadas were warm and flaky, the morcilla was rich and well seasoned, and the grilled provolone came out bubbling and perfect for sharing amongst our table with the restaurant's complementary bread basket. Entrée: - New York Strip Steak, 12 oz This was the only cut of steak we ordered. It was cooked to each of our desired temperatures and seasoned simply, letting the quality of the beef speak for itself. It is clear why La Cabrera has a reputation as one of Latin America's best restaurants. Sauces on the side, which included a BBQ sauce, and a chimichurri, were left for our choosing and were used for the side dishes more than anything. Sides: - French Fries - Jasmine Rice Both sides complemented the steak well. The fries were crispy and large in size. My father-in-law, a cuban man who's very serious about his rice dishes, thought the jasmine rice was very good. Dessert: - Dulce de Leche Ice Cream with Cone - Dulce de Leche Pancakes The ice cream was smooth and rich, while the pancakes were finished with a sugary powder coating that was impossible to resist. This lunch reinforced why La Cabrera continues to be stand out in a crowded field of steakhouses. Between the consistency, generous portions, and the value of their daily menu specials, it's an easy recommendation whether you're bringing family, hosting someone from out of town, or simply looking for a great lunch in Coconut Grove.
