Top Best Italian Restaurants in Three Lakes

"Machialina opened in 2012 and since has been one of the best Italian Restaurants in Miami known for Chef Michael Pirolo’s take on rustic Italian food. The menu choices focus on a select few dishes from antipasti like local burrata, creamy polenta, country bread. Pasta dishes include chef favorite Spaghetti con Vongole a garlic and white wine sauce, Vacatelli Macchialina or Tagliatelle with mushrooms and shallots."

"Italian food can get very expensive to eat in Miami Beach, but Macchialina’s is one place to get your pasta fix for less than $30 per person. They have staples like Lasagna, Caccio e Pepe and Spaghetti, that are of course handmade pasta. However, you can even get Branzino and Veal here if you are cutting down on carbs."

"An energetic, casual Italian taverna featuring the bold, seasonally inspired cooking of chef Michael Pirolo. Clean flavors, fresh ingredients & rustic accents."

"Don’t let Downtown’s grit turn you away; one of the best cheap restaurants in Miami is hidden on a tucked-away alley more reminiscent of Milan than Miami. Launched by two Italians, Soya e Pomodoro is the kind of spot where you come for dinner and end up spending the night lingering over drinks as you sway to the sounds of live jazz bands serenading the crowd. While the food is no-frills, the flavors are just as authentic as those you’d find in Italy."

"There exists an earnest, unpretentious beauty to Soya & Pomodoro. Like some strangely seductive and rustic trattoria that you might accidentally stumble upon on an ancient cobblestone side street of Venice or Rome. “Simple food made with love” is the motto here."

"Think back on the Miami of a year ago, when nobody was sure if our city’s meteoric ride to the top of the American food scene would survive the pandemic’s brutal wrath. Flash forward to now, and even in the height of summer, snagging a reservation at a top restaurant is a tough feat, like Art Basel just kept on going right into hurricane season. Whether or not our restaurant renaissance continues is anyone’s guess, but for now we can all revel in a year that’s seen week after week of world-class openings."
