    Had dinner here last night... this place is in a very inconspicuous location, but when you get on the property you come into another world. Very nice setting over all. We were greeted by our server, very nice Italian young man.. who knew everything about what he was serving. I asked what was the house speciality cocktail, vodka sour, of course I had one. So glad I did, so delicious. As for the food he informed us there was "no" menu, and offered verbally the options. Apps were a series of 5-6 different dishes, all were amazing, and not just the typical Italian apps, they were somewhat unique for the most part.... I don't eat gluten, they not only accommodated, they were prepared and all the apps were made gluten free, and even had gluten free bread served. We cleaned up the apps. Main dish was pasta, also gluten free.. I don't get pasta often but glad I did. All the food was outstanding... made my top 5 list. To finish it off the value of the meal was outstanding... what we paid for what we ate was probably one of the most outstanding values I've seen in a while in Miami. We will definitely be back with friends. And!!! They have an outside private are you can use for parties. Very impressed with the overall experience. I had been to this lo before when it was something else... but don't remember our experience.. the setting is definitely magical as it's on the little river water way.. can't wait to be back.

    I wanted to try San Lorenzo since it's owned by the same team and follows a similar concept as Cotoletta. They offer a set menu that changes daily/weekly so you can only order from the options available rather than a full menu. The location is really nice, especially if you sit outside. Being right by the river makes for a great atmosphere, and the service was great. I was a little underwhelmed by the food. It was good, but not memorable enough to make me want to come back, especially for the price. I personally prefer Cotoletta, which I think delivers better value and overall food quality.

    I came here due to a few videos on instagram and I feel such a let down. First let me start off with the positive , the service was great , very attentive described every course. Now with my experience first, what was this appetizer-- beet carpaccio, potatoes salad, tomatoes , and some weird tuna that tasted canned with some sauce and o don't know what else ? Ohhh, and let's not forget the eggplant with chocolate-- does any of that combination sound appetizing to you? Yes, very disappointed, and I am not a picky eater, but I think something simpler yet appetizing will be better received . Now let's get into the main course, the lobster pasta-- for two people, they gave us half a lobster. It was half of a tail for two people and one claw. The lobster wasn't fresh it was flaking as we tried to take it off the shell and so hard to get the little meet that we received. It was literally ridiculous for a bill that was over $300. It's absurd and subpar . Now the dessert-- the tiramisù. Where are the cookies ? It was just crème . I am so dissatisfied and will not be back . It's so unfortunate . However, the ambiance outside is nice, and so is the bathroom, but as an avid restaurant goer, I can emphasize enough how it was simply just not worth it for me . I would rather spend $300 on a party for 2 somewhere else. .

    We're here on opening night and there aren't words to describe how amazing this restaurant was !!! The food and service were outstanding don't hesitate to come if you're looking for a good italian restaurant - no menu just the specials of the day !!!

    When we got out of the car, it was drizzling a bit and the waiters met us outside with umbrellas and walked us into the restaurant. It felt so nice! The waiters were so nice and friendly. The concept is a rotating menu of fish courses paired with pastas or meat. There is no physical menu, they just list off the options. It's per couple $120/$140 depending on the options available. They have a gorgeous bar and our drinks were DELICIOUS. I had a gin gimlet that was so delicious. The meal included a set of appetizers for the table and dessert options. The experience was different, beautiful. Definitely somewhere to take someone you're trying to impress!

If you are a regular/familiar with the miami restaurant scene, It's all about how you feel at the end of the night- at this dinner the manager made it right. Btw if you want your pasta to be served alongside your main protein choice tell your server and make sure he understands. Otherwise you will be eating it separately. That being said, over all the food & portions were good. We were a group of 8 and ordered many dishes. Some worth mentioning were the prawns in green sauce, the Branzino and the steak. Yes.... Will go back again.

I ordered a mocktail drink and waited upfront. Once we got situated we were sat down, the decor was definitely much nicer compared to the NY location.

There were still several tables available, but I was told that most were being kept outside because of the rain--even though the rain had stopped. I couldn't help but feel a little dismissed because I was dining alone, especially after I mentioned that it was my last night in Miami and that I had really been looking forward to experiencing this restaurant. Thankfully, a kind gentleman graciously invited me to join him at his table, which completely turned the evening around. As for the food, the experience was fantastic. They started us with cheese, meat, and fresh bread, all of which was delicious. We ordered the Octopus Pizzaiolo appetizer, and it was absolutely to die for. I had the Spicy Rigatoni Vodka, while he had the Dover Piccata, both were excellent. Finished off with the Hazelnut Chocolate Cake with Vanilla Ice Cream (not pictured) Our server was also a gem and kept us laughing throughout the meal, which made the evening even more enjoyable. Despite the rocky start, the food and service once I was seated made for a memorable last night in Miami.

The menu is concise, to the point and mainly focused on traditional and/or comfort food in this case Italian. I can't believe I had it saved for so many years but today I got to experience some of the best food I've had in the city with the most remarkable service ever. This is a family owned restaurant and as a customer I felt as family too. Beto, the owner, makes you feel like part of his extended family from the moment you step foot in the joint and all throughout your culinary adventure. I hadn't made reservations and he made sure to find me a table for one even though it was super busy at the time. He also recommended a few dishes but ultimately convinced me to try one of the chef's specials which I've been talking about till this day. His staff is also very attentive and diligent. Having said that let me break down what I ate with a nice chilled glass of wine: Antipasto: Burratina...Fresh homemade burrata mozzarella on top of thin slices of prosciutto, basil and extra-virgin olive oil. Served with roasted red peppers and tomatoes. All fresh and with high quality ingredients without a doubt. I wanted something light before the pasta and this was very filling so I couldn't finish it but... Entre: Chef's special...Pappardelle Patagonia. Green flat homemade noodle with vodka sauce, Italian sausage, pancetta, mushrooms and fresh herbs. This was one of the best pasta dishes I've had in my life. Perfectly cooked "al dente" with a creamy vodka sauce that'd have you wanting to lick the damn plate. That Italian sausage was also so divine and they don't skimp on portions or ingredients. I'm glad Beto suggested this one instead of the Pappardelle Italian sausage. Dolci: cheesecake. I have no idea how I still had a little bit of room for dessert after that feast but this cheesecake was all worth it. Not overly sweet and very rich and velvety. This is arguably one of the best Italian joints in town. Just delicious Italian comfort food made with love and excellent service to got with it. Beto offered an espresso to end this extraordinary meal. He takes the time to go to every table and make sure customers are taken care of and that's what makes the difference. These are the type of restaurants that leave a lasting impression on their patrons and make them come back time after time.

The hostesses (2) told us 45', we agreed. I asked to go to the bar to have drinks, we were told we couldn't (the bar had some open seats). I said OK, I'll order the drink and we wait outside, hostess was annoyed at that suggestion. She said if we wanted a drink, we'd have to go to their sister restaurant (which was packed). After 1hr 15' (we stayed outside waiting, no drinks), we checked in and the hostess rudely told us that she can't foresee when people will leave. So we took our $350 check to Hillstones, where they value regulars. We have dined at Luca before and love their food, but seems like success has gotten to the hostess' heads. Restaurants, especially in Miami, succeed and survive from the loyal locals, not from tourists nor fads. Seems that Luca has forgotten that. We're happy to take our business elsewhere, even a chain restaurant who values repeat customers.
