The food was incredible, but the service was even better! Extremely friendly and knowledgeable staff- Salvo took excellent care of us and everyone was so sweet to our pup. I can't remember the name of another staff member, but we talked to him for a while and he was absolutely lovely! I also HIGHLY recommend pairing the prosecco with the creme brulee- my boyfriend doesn't even like wine and he enjoyed the pairing.

Overall the food is great and they have an expansive wine list but the service is poor. Not for lack of trying but they may be spreading themselves thin. I was with a party of 9 and although the waiter did his best to take our order together to prevent delay in service there were many gaps throughout the night. From waiting for our wine for 20+ minutes because they had to change the glasses (appreciated but the wait was soooo long in the middle of dinner) to having to look for our waiter to ask for the check, there's was no flow to our night and when celebrating something it puts a damper

Christmas dinner at Ferraro's! Overall, the experience was good (3.5 stars), but I expected way more. The service was awesome and the atmosphere is great, as well. I wanted more from the food and in my opinion it was not worth the money, but I did like that most of the ingredients are organic. So if you're into that then there's a plus. For appetizers, we ordered the Polpo all'Adriatica. The octopus in the dish was cooked perfectly and the flavor was good. The Melanzana alla Parmigiana was another appetizer I was excited for, but was unimpressed by. I chose the Pear Pasta Dumplings

Our reservations were on a thursday at 630pm and it was quite empty, which was great. there was parking right in front of restaurant and free, which is a huge plus! we got sat outside (very cute cozy, romantic atmosphere). i was worried about it being hot but there was a fan hitting us directly. my bf was was wearing shorts and was getting bit by mosquitos and when we asked to sit inside, the waiter had bug repellent! so we ended up staying outdoors. the service was excellent. sebastian had great recommendations and helped me create a meal that i had seen on yelp but was not on the menu. he was

This restaurant is Beautiful and the decor is fantastic, from the dishes presentation and service, all of that is great, but the prices are very high and the quality and taste is not that great, and it's way overpriced , I will not go back.
I must say we had a wonderful waiter and his name was Salvatore.

My good friend and I decided to stop by for dinner before attending the VanGogh exhibit in Miami. We ordered the Lamb Ossobucco dish and the Lobster Gnocci pasta dish. Both were delicious and made to perfection. Our server was Luke, who was attentive to our needs and treated us very nicely. For dessert, we had the delicious Tiramisu. The atmosphere was great, parking was easy and we didn't have to wait long to be seated. This restaurant observes health safety rules.

I finally made it to Ferraro's since they opened. If you like authentic true Italian cooking then this is a place for you. The food was just fantastic and so was our Server Sebastian. We started out with two appetizers. The shrimp and calamari was cooked to perfection. It was lightly breaded and perfectly seasoned. The Octopus appetizer was pan sautéed with baby potatoes, olives, capers and cherry tomatoes. The octopus melts in your mouth and the combination of all the ingredients was perfection. For our Primi we had the Fresh handmade Pappardelle pasta with wild boar sauce. If you have had

I have been coming to this restaurant for a while now. This place is always on point. the food and service is great. Sebastian is usually our waiter he goes above and beyond he is very friendly and always gives lots of suggestions so we can always try something new. We have also been served by Barna very nice waiter even if he is not our waiter he drops by our table and says hello and makes sure we are having great service. i totally recommend the food here if you are a Lasagna lover this is the place the BEST IN MIAMI!!!

We were down visiting family down in Miami which fell on our anniversary. Our kids booked this place and it was a great experience. The food and service was very good, however the menu is limited to a few choices. The wine list has some nice labels and reasonable prices. I would definitely recommend this place but would say take a look at the menu online just to make sure you can find something.

Do not judge this place by the exterior. The atmosphere was intimate and great for conversatating. I had my best Italian food in Italy and Ferraro's came close to that. We did not know what to order and the maitre de gave excellent recommendations from the wine selections to the appetizers to the main course! You must try it for yourself.

Came here for my birthday dinner with my boyfriend. 100% recommend!
The outdoor seating is super cute and cozy. There are a bunch of overhead fans so it doesn't get too hot either.
We got the sautéed octopus, burrata with prosciutto and veal to start. If you like octopus, you have to try theirs! If you get the veal, I recommend putting it on the warm, fresh bread!
The lobster pasta was on special so we had to get it. It did not disappoint! You can also request to make it spicy like we did. The pappardelle with boar was very good and the meat wasn't fatty at all. All the pasta is

I so would like to leave more stars but my reviews are honest. Was looking for a restaurant in Miami to celebrate my best friends birthday and found this restaurant on Google. Decided to try it based on a few reviews and the photos of the food. We arrived on time for our reservations and was seated immediately. It took our waiter a while to come to our table - first red flag. When he finally greeted us, he was extremely nice. My complaints are the level of service. Very slow service from taking our order, refilling our water and wine glasses and very slow getting us our check. We should have assumed

Since i started eating healthier and doing a bunch of things fitness, Italian food is the one kind of food I missed the most! So when I happened to drive by for the 1.234th time by Ferraros Kitchen, I gave into temptation and decided to stop in. (It's right on the 79th Street Causeway, like on my way to the full moon party.)
I ate about as healthy and light as one could in an Italian place. I held out and only had one crispy cracked bread (with perfectly fluffy inside). Mozzarella Caprese consisted of thinly sliced tomatoes (very fresh), a dab of creamy mozzarella and drizzle of a light but

We had such an incredible experience at this place. We celebrated a friend's birthday there. The wait staff was always making sure that everything was great and was lovely in every step of the meal.
We had quite a few appetizers during our meal, including a caprese di mozzarella, a board of cured cuts and cheeses, the sarde en saor, the fritto veneziano and my favorite, the polpo all'Adriatica.
After all of that, I was barely able to eat a little bit of my paccheri alla mediterranea, but I was happy to take it to go. I was also able to try a bit of the ravioli aragosta e tartufo fresco

I was really impressed with Ferraro's Kitchen. During this COVID period those outside seating is perfect for a nice evening. It is cooled with fans and most of it is covered.
The service was excellent our waiter Lucas gave us excellent recommendation from wines to dessert.
Appetizers we chose burrata and cheese platter were a great start!
The food was tasteful and made fresh. The lasagna and fiochi was delicious.
We truly enjoyed the atmosphere and ambiance.
The owner came by our table to see how we were doing.
They have an amazing wine selection!

I think I've driven by this place 1,000 times and would have never stopped by if it wasn't for my client's suggestion! I'm so glad I did. The interior is beautiful with indoor and outdoor seating available. We came for lunch around 12:30pm. The menu had a variety of fresh Italian options, but my eye was on the lunch special . I got the $25 special with 2 courses and glass of wine. My client got the lunch Spaghetti Aglio E Olio.
