I am so glad I tried this restaurant and I had the opportunity to celebrate my partner birthday. I scheduled the reservation on open table and I added the rose package. They definitely delivered and everything looked great. The temperature of the food was perfect and everything came out hot. It was soo much on the table the portions were generous. There was live music which added a touch to the night. The manager came over to check on us and everyone was so friendly. The staff were amazing!!! read more

Fantastic food and service! Our server Sabrina was incredibly kind and attentive through our lovely Sunday lunch. We loved the Arugula and Artichoke salad and dozen oysters. My husband had the filet while I had the wood grilled chicken, both were fantastic. We also shared the cacio e pepe as a side. Good, balanced food all around. We highly recommend the cucumber gin cocktail too. The location was beautiful and our table had a great view of their large windows and foliage. Thank you! read more

We had the frutti del mare pasta and the fillet steak, both dishes were exceptional. Thank you Giuseppe for the impeccable service and recommendations! The ambience is warm and inviting. read more

We had such a great time here. Giuseppe was our server and he was amazing. We had a business dinner and he was very attentive and gave us great recommendations for our meal and dessert as well as drinks for the night. The ribeye (medium rare) was done perfectly. Thank you for the good time! I'll also add the live music was a nice touch to the evening. read more

Overpriced and snooty staff. Came here at 4 pm on December 31st. The hostess immediately turned us away saying they were fully booked. Odd. We were the only ones in the restaruant and we literally waited outside until it opened. Ended up getting a reservation at 4:15 pm for 5. Fully booked? BS. read more

I have been to The Amalfi Llama a few times and every time I had the same experience. The food was good, but the service was not great. Starting with the positives there are several different options including, steak, chicken, seafood, pizza, sandwiches and more. My personal favorite is the "Amalfi Burger", but I do not think you can go wrong with any of the food options. In terms of the atmosphere, even though the restaurant is located at a mall, the ambiance is nice. Every time I have visited, I have sat in the outdoor seating area which I would highly recommend.   Now on to the major short coming, the service. In all of my visits the staff have been inattentive, pushy on higher costing food items and all around not very helpful.   Overall, The Amalfi Llama has good food and a nice ambiance, but the service falls short, big time. read more

I was in Hollywood, Fl a couple months ago and decided on Amalfi for a nice dinner date. The service was a bit slow even though the restaurant only had a few tables seated at the time. We loved their Focaccia bread. We've been chasing that ever since, hoping to find as good a Focaccia bread in CA somewhere. The steak I got was supposed to be medium rare but it was quite rare/blue, so it got taken back to cook a little longer. Not great, especially since it's a char-style. They did what they could and it came back closer to medium rare/rare, so I ate it and it was alright. 4 stars made up for by the excellent Focaccia read more

My favorite restaurant at Aventura mall. I come here for lunch, happy hour or dinner at least 3 times a month and it never disappoints. The service is great, the drinks are delicious and the food is so well seasoned. Sometimes I sit inside but my favorite is to sit outside and people watch as they walk by. The noise level is tolerable and they also have tvs at the bar to view the latest games. read more

Came in hungry on Father's Day and left with full happy tummies all around. We had a table of 7 and my cousin had a table of 6 next to us. Everything was delish no crumb was left behind and we will def be back again. Only critique would be to check on the table once in a while. It's a pricey restaurant and having empty water glasses through the entire dinner is not ideal, especially when it's what most of us were drinking. read more

This place is sexy good! From the moment we walked in we were instantly greeted and selected outside to a beautiful table. We ordered drinks and they had a good pour. We all had steak filets and all were seasoned well, juicy and tender. We plan to go back whenever we are in Miami! read more

Service was great, we had one hiccup and the manager was really great at resolving it for us. Food was great, would definitely recommend. I went On a Sunday during brunch and we were the only people inside as most people chose to be seated outside so I can't speak towards the atmosphere on any other given day or night but we thought it was a great ambiance for a birthday celebration! read more

Giuseppe was fantastic! The was great, and the atmosphere was very nice. It was a nice work dinner

Visited for dinner with a party of 12 for work. Service was the absolute worst. We sat down at 6:45 and didn't leave the restaurant until 10:30. I ordered the three course special. Started with a salad that I never received, followed by a steak that was supposed to be cooked medium rare that was easily medium well. Finally, a dessert that was forgotten about until I brought it to the servers attention. Our whole group was disappointed, especially with the amount of money spent on these meals. Will definitely not be returning. read more

This was easily the best steak I've had in the last couple of years. Even if the empanadas fell flat, everything else we ordered was better than expected. The restaurant was near empty when my associate and I went in on a weekday for an early dinner, and based upon the quality of the food, I'm unsure why it isn't packed all the time. Special shout out to our server, Matteo. You simply don't find people as passionate and dedicated about the meals they're serving as him. He could be successful in any single thing he does just on his desire to serve and excitement for the experience he's bestowing. He wins this 5-star review. read more

Updating my review to include the 2025 Miami Spice experience - great value for the price, large portions and quality food. We had the empanadas, steak, and cheesecake - all really good. Minor complaint that my steak wasn't sliced as I had asked and not cooked enough to the temperature I had requested. Beautiful, covered outdoor patio. Good service and 20% gratuity is automatically added to your bill. read more

Came in for happy hour and was immediately impressed. The ambiance is stunning. It was warm, earthy, and upscale without being pretentious. I had wine and oysters at the bar, and both were excellent. The oysters were fresh and beautifully presented, and the wine selection was solid. I ordered the Cacio e Pepe to go, and I'm still thinking about it. Packed with flavor, perfectly creamy with a peppery kick and I honestly wish I had ordered two. Easily one of the best I've had. Service was ok and the bar staff was nice but lacked a little attentiveness. I'll definitely be back for a full dinner next time! read more

Thank you my fellow helpers for recommending the Baked Carbonara, it was so cheesy and delicious! I must WARN you, it's a big dish, it's great to share! My hubby and the girls absolutely loved their pizza and the burrata was fresh and delicious The restaurant is beautiful and the ambiance is super cool and chill. Luckily the food was delicious, but the service was super slow, almost non existent. To the point where we wanted to order dessert/coffee but chose to go else where. Are drinks were empty for a while as well. read more

Very disappointing experience. The restaurant had no air conditioning, the service was extremely slow, and we waited nearly two hours for our food. When it finally arrived, it wasn't worth the wait. What was most frustrating was that the manager did nothing to address the situation or make it right. Overall, poor food, poor service, and a complete lack of customer care. I won't be back. read more

The Amalfi Llama - Lobster Bisque - New American Near Me - Miami, Florida

An amazing experience ! The food was exceptionally delicious and our waitress Sabrina attended us non stop throughout the night. She was very pleasant and welcoming and was attentive all the time to our every need. The truffled pizza with mushrooms is an absolute must and so were the grilled tasty shishito peppers and the roasted beet salad. The main course of prime ribeye was so tasty and cooked exactly as we asked for. We loved it! We were seated on the outside terrace that was so beautifully lit and the atmosphere was very inviting. I recommend this restaurant very highly and especially ask for Sabrina as your waitress: You'll enjoy the whole experience doubly ! We will be back soon :) read more

Food was really good. Pizza extra thin just like I love. Pasta was fresh and felt like homemade. The meat i ordered was medium rare and cooked the right way, just like I wanted it.

I was looking for a new restaurant to try out for my brother's birthday and this one did not disappoint. The staff was so friendly and welcoming on arrival. The restaurant is also very spacious with so many options for seating as well as two bars. Our server Julian was so helpful with any questions we had about our drinks or describing certain dishes. We ordered lychee martinis which were very delicious and not overly sweet but a true martini. For appetizer we ordered the calamari and it came with two dips (spicy aioli and tartar) there were also some jicama in and peppers added that gave it a nice touch. For our main dishes my brother ordered the prime ribeye (12 oz) Oscar style (crab and bearnaise). My mom had the Scottish Salmon that comes with asparagus, arugula and roasted tomatoes. I ordered the lamb chops (18 oz) medium and it was perfectly charred on the outside and medium on the inside. For our sides we ordered the asparagus and potato purée. Everyone loved their dish and it was cooked exactly as we requested. We also ordered a prosciutto and arugula pizza to share and it was the best pizza I've had for a long time. The crust was thin and light it's not tomato based but very tasty. Definitely try the pizza if you can. Now for dessert we had tiramisu and vanilla gelato with mixed berry compote. It was all delicious and not too sweet. I was so happy dinner was amazing and everyone enjoyed it. I would definitely recommend this restaurant if you're in the area to try it. It has something for everyone. read more

Good food but overly priced. Portions ok and service very good but cannot get over the prices.

We had such a great dinner at The Amalfi Llama. The drinks were superb and the apps were to die for. We had the short rib empanadas, the focaccia, and the tuna tartare. The dinner meals were just average- we probably would have been better just eating apps. We had the prime rib French dip, it was okay, but there was more arugula than prime rib but that was disappointing. We also had the Positano pizza. We heard rave reviews about it but it was undercooked and it looked like it sat out for a while before coming to the table. Our server was Pedro and he was very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed to make our dinner a great one. The ambiance was very nice- it was not very loud with music and there was a woman singing on the speaker and we found out she was in another part of the restaurant singing live. Overall great experience- if you get food, stick to pasta and apps and you'll have a better experience than we did! read more

Incredible food as always. The empanadas are incredible and the service was spot on We had a Malbec but they have an excellent wine selection to accompany the well seasoned steaks. read more

Wow! I can't tell you the last time we had this great of a meal with service to match. Jose took such great care of us and answered all our questions, steering us in the right direction as first timers. First, the service was quick and attentive. We walked in at 6:15 and had all our dessert by 7 pm. We got the miami spice menu and tried the tuna tartare and the beef empanadas, both tasty. The chimichurri was amazing. We also split a Caesar salad and margarita pizza. Make sure you try the pizza!! The milamessi was fine, nothing to write home about but the branzino was amazing! And great portion sizes. If you're getting a Negroni get the amalfi one, this was Jose's recommendation and so perfect! read more

First time at Amalfi, my husband has been before and hasn't stopped talking about it since that first visit. Beautiful inside and out this place is a heavy contender when visiting aventura mall. Good for groups or an intimate dinner with a loved one. Open table offers reservations and I made one conveniently before walking in for a party of 4. We opted to hit the bar while we waited for our other two to join us. The bartender was friendly and immediately tended to us, made a mean old fashion then sent us on our way when our table was ready. For drinks we started off with two old fashions. Second round we tried the Woodford Place and the purple orchid. The Woodford Place was a lot more aggressive in flavor than I had anticipated, definitely an acquired tasted, reminiscent of strong cough medicine. Not for me but others may enjoy. The purple orchid was on the sweeter side but much easier to drink and something I would get again. Now for the food, the appetizer options are so hard to choose from. We landed on the hamachi crudo, Puccia bread, beef carpaccio, the short rib empanadas and the Positano pizza. I'm still thinking about the Beef Carpaccio, this place is doing it right. Thinly sliced and such a refreshing bite that will be something I get every visit. The empanadas were good but not something I would get on repeat. The positano pizza was so good we almost ordered a second, the hot honey really makes it. The hamachi was fresh and had a nice bite from the Serrano pepper on top, would recommend if you are into raw fish. The puccia bread was recommended by the waitress, comes paired with a whipped eggplant dip. It was good but not enough flavor for me to get again. Second round of food we didn't have much room left and ordered the margarita pizza and the baked Tagliolini. I read on yelp prior to ordering that the Baked Tagliolini was the way to go and my Yelpers did not disappoint. This pasta was creamy and flavorful but also so light. Pasta felt hand made and even being as full as we were it was the cherry on top of an already phenomenal meal. Now for dessert, we knew we couldn't go wrong with anything on the menu and both couples opted for an affogato. The have a choice of chocolate, hazelnut, vanilla, or pistachio gelato. We had hazelnut and the others had chocolate, I almost wish I had done pistachio because both were SOOO good. The cheesecake was ok for me, more cheese than cake and I wish it was a little sweeter. Over all this place has the friendliest staff I've encountered in quite some time. Everyone I walked by smiled or asked me if I needed anything, very kind and attentive. Whether you sit inside or outside your in for a treat, highly recommend. read more
