The tables are comfortable the bar looks awesome too and the menu has some great choices like steak, pasta, calamari, and then adventurous items like a vaca frita pizza. And yes, I went with the vaca frita pizza because I've never seen that concept before, so I had to give it a try. And to my suspicion, the saltiness of the cheese and meat may have been a little too much for me. The flavor is definitely there though! It's delicious but for me I did feel it was a bit too heavy on the salt side. What I really liked about this pizza is the added vegetables to it. I love the creativity and the mix of flavors is almost there to being perfect in my opinion, just the salt stands out a little too much. A quick note about the service here, top notch. Everyone is so nice and they greet you right at the front door as soon as you enter too. Very cool easy to miss spot in Hialeah! I'm planning on coming back to try another menu item.

Everyone has garlic knots on tables that look and smell amazing. However, they're a little hard due to probably being the oven longer and using the same pizza dough. We started with a white pizza that generally was good. Ricotta was smothered then topped with mozzarella. No garlic, oregano or EVOO so it seemed little too careless what could have been stellar pie. Meatballs were huge covered in red sauce and were nicely seasoned. Pastas were a little under-seasoned, huge portions that pooled water. Could have been a drained more carefully or sauces thicker. A few more teaspoons of parsley or a bit of fresh grated Parmesan would have elevated them. Veal Parm entree on the menu was crispy but smothered with mozzarella. It was a generous portion but it would have been great to get more of the contrasted breaded texture. Mussels seemed older than necessary and had a strong aroma. Asiago Gnocchi was a huge predominantly white plate filled with probably 24-30 dumplings. Drink menu had a lot of creative cocktails. Prices were very reasonable and the place gets busy with groups and families. Service was great and quick and the old timers made you feel at home.

We casually popped into this popular Hialeah spot, conveniently located right next door to Flanigan's, for a quick lunch. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by the friendly staff and promptly seated. As we looked over the menu, we spotted the $7 lunch special: a slice of pizza + a soda. Now THAT is a lunch deal you don't see every day! We placed our order and, about 10 minutes later, our pizza arrived. Fresh, hot, cheesy, and definitely giving New York-style pizza vibes. I went with the Salvatore Special, which was really good overall. My only personal preference would be the onions. The white onion was a little too raw for me. I'd much rather have red onions cooked until they're nice and tender, or skip the onions altogether. But here's the beauty of finding a new pizza spot: now I know exactly how I'm ordering it next time! Good pizza, friendly service, quick turnaround, and an unbeatable lunch special. This Hialeah pizza stop has earned itself a return visit.

I will say they were super nice and welcoming when we went walked in. We sat indoors since it was a rainy night. The service was good but I just can't get over the presentation and preparation of the food. There were two other tables besides us and our simple order took over 30 minutes to arrive. First, they brought out my mom's chicken parm and entire ten minutes before mine. Her chicken serving was literally one lonely chicken tenderloin the size of a chicken tender basically with overcooked and dry pasta. My dish came with two tenderloins which is more reasonable but I could taste the freezer burn through the sauce with the first bite. Her Pinot Grigio which is typically a dry white wine was some sweet unknown blend that wasn't quite moscato but almost tasted like a wine cooler. They could use a menu revamp bc the items listed are very vague. I will say the chairs were comfortable which for me is a plus. The prices are alright but they just lack guidance in their presentation and ambiance. I ended up taking my food to go because by the time it arrived, my mother had already finished eating. Plus, we had already been seated for over an hour at that point. If it wasn't for the service, I'd have a completely different review because the food quality isn't where it should be. Hopefully they improve because the lakes deserves a cozy Italian restaurant.

THE BEST DATE-NIGHT ROMANTIC SPOT IN MIAMI…read more Pane y Vino is one of those rare restaurants that gets everything right: charming, delicious, romantic, and completely unique. The décor has so much personality, and the entire experience feels wonderfully old-school--from the attentive service to the little details that make you feel genuinely taken care of. The owner is lively, charismatic, and absolutely charming, faithfully tending to her guests and making the whole room feel warm and personal. And then there's the food. The carpaccio was exceptional: paper-thin slices of fresh beef topped with delicately sliced mushrooms and a unique lemon crème that made the whole dish sing. The mussels were enormous, served in a spicy tomato broth so delicious you'll want to finish it with a spoon. Just when you think it can't get any better, dessert arrives. Homemade, gourmet, and prepared right at your table--and somehow it doesn't feel gimmicky at all. It's genuinely spectacular. The surprise hint of Nutella hidden beneath the delicate finger cookies takes it completely over the top. And if you love eggplant parmigiana, theirs is top of the line. The portions are hearty, the prices are surprisingly reasonable for the quality and experience, and the atmosphere is made for a romantic night out. One warning: make your reservation in advance. Pane y Vino gets packed, and once you experience it, you'll understand why.

One always think "if they have good ingredients they're going to be good" but apparently, Pane e Vino misses this notion: they have the best ingredients for sure but also the master hand of incredible chefs that make every dish unique. My mum had the Cannelloni di la Nonna, smooth, and delicious. My dad had the Maltagliatti, and he didn't talk after he finished. I was celebrating my birthday. And I asked for the Alla Ruotta, but with Pappardelle. Made Al dente, this pasta was smooth, with a a sauce that merged the best Italian tomatoes, and the best Parmigiano Reggiano. I added cheese on top of it, but that's because I'm an absolute fan. Then after they sang Happy Birthday to me - something I didn't ordered - they provided the table with THE ABSOLUTE BEST TIRAMISÙ I HAVE EVER TASTED IN MY EXISTENCE. Don't ask the ingredients, enjoy. You're absolutely welcome. Creamy, soft, fresh, all done at the very moment. It makes you question why this restaurant doesn't have a Michelin star... While the concept is the classic "Italian Hole-in-the-wall" and the ambiance is quiet, ideal for a romantic date, with dim lighting and soft music, there's always an artist making pasta at the window, and there's always time for the chiacchiere with Angelo. His stories of life and recipes are great, but also some Juventus talk, and how football evolves... amazing... amazing. Amazing food. Amazing people. Grazie mile, Marco e Angelo!

From the outside it looks small but once you step inside you realize it is pretty big with plenty of seating. The lighting is dim making it perfect to celebrate birthdays, anniversaries, date night, or any other special occasion. We made reservations to celebrate my mom's birthday. We arrived earlier than expected and they accommodated us right away. We wanted to start with the lamb empanadas but they didn't have any so we had the chicken instead. Nonetheless these were just as tasty. We weren't done yet and the second server removed our plates for the bread and appetizers. At this point our main server had passed by several times to ask if we were ready to order. We definitely felt rushed. We ordered two sirloin steak for our entree. My mom and I shared a sirloin and my husband had his own. This was a pretty decent size to share. Unfortunately my husband's cut was not very good as it was very fatty. It wasn't communicated very clearly that the steak came with 2 sides. However, if sharing among 3 people the sides are pretty small and will not be enough. So we went ahead and ordered two more sides. Despite the confusion, this is one of the best steaks we have ever had! We all agreed that it was so flavorful, fresh, and good quality meat. If you want a good steak this is the place to come to!

My steak came out bland though, and I had to ask for salt. They brought me some sea salt in a small bowl and it made a huge difference once I sprinkled it on. For a $45+ steak, it shouldn't need that. The salad that came with it was just arugula and tomatoes, no dressing, which was a bit disappointing. The presentation was also a miss. Loved their old fashioned. Would order it again. The kids loved the calamari, though I thought it was a little too chewy. Overall a good spot, just wish the steak came out seasoned properly. Would still go back for the pasta and drinks.
