I would give it 5 stars. But the prices are about 20% higher then value. But this is MB and the restaurant sits in the SOFI section of Miami Beach and the rent is high I am sure. The food is quite good and the consistency of the meals each and every day sets it apart from most others in Miami. The ambience outside on the patio is quite good and imho better then eating inside. The staff is responsive based on dealing with a high volume of customers. Don't expect a high end level of service here, but they get the job done. Never had a bad meal here. But you will feel some sticker shock when the bill

Josie took really good care of us. We came without reservation a d still she found a table for us. The wine out of this world. Luis took really good care of us. Answered all our questions. The mussels and the focaccia you have to try it and then the vongole pasta and the short rib ravioli. We had a Sancerre We will be back

Blown away by this place. Prosciutto and burrata platter was amazing . Service outstanding by our waiter "Yalena"who was so courteous and helpful in every respect - so nice! We had the bucatini carbonara and gnocchi with Gorgonzola. Sat at a great table and watched Ferrari's bimmers and Porsche's go by. We were here for 1 day and took a walk before at south point park (just down the street) before and after our fantastic lunch. Highly recommend!

First the good. The outdoor seating and music makes for good ambience. the outdoor area assuming you are in the garden is nice especially with the plants partially blocking you from the sidewalk.
I didn't find the food to be anything special. We got the Octopus the Foicchetti and Gnocchi gorgonzola. The Octopus was just ok I have had better at many places that are at much lower price points. The Foicchetti was good and unique and the Gnocchi was so terrible I couldn't finish it. Overall not a good value.
The service was attentive but also very slow and not all that helpful.

The pizza we had was one of a kind and very unique to Miami, straight from Italy. The flavors were delicious and the wine was great, our server Angelo was fantastic and made excellent recommendations. One of the best restaurants south of faith in Miami for the ambience flavor and staff. Would highly recommend

Outstanding. Great ambience. They know how to do pizza n pasta. The Fiocchetti alle Pete e Tartufo was little short of amazing - just as you think it is pretty good the truffle flavor kicks in and recalibrates everything. Salad with endive was a great crisp, sharp contrast. The dessert Sabrina pizzeria was heavenly breakfast deconstructed. The house suggested wines were very drinkable. The service was attentive and informative. All in a Miami outside ambience of greenery and soft lighting.

The Sunday spa vibe for brunch you need in your life! The watermelon salad was so much better than expected. Sweet juicy watermelon paired perfectly with savory goat cheese, pistachios and fresh mint. I got the pink peppercorn Bellini which has got to be the best Bellini to date. Fresh peach purée, sage, pink peppercorns!

Call Me Gaby has become one of my favorite neighborhood restaurants in Sofi.
You can't beat the beautiful atmosphere outside or inside! We started of with a Lychee martini, it was a bit pricey even for South Beach, but delicious! Everything on the menu is scrumptious & beautifully displayed! Our waiter was friendly & very knowledgeable he recommended we try the Chef's Special Burrata stuffed with mozzarella cherries & REALLY good Prosciutto with cherry tomatoes. It was superb & we combined it with the meatballs which complemented the Burrata Special really well! We

We have had the opportunity to dine at Call Me Gabby several times and once three times in one week.
The food, service and the outdoor seating are all wonderful points and it's always a pleasure dining here.
We always grab the watermelon salad as an appetizer to share with the presentation and flavors are great.
You can't go wrong with any dish including their pizza. The beer is always cold and many options to choose from.
Make sure you may a reservation to secure your table. I use Open Table to book my reservation and I hope you enjoy your visit.

I really enjoyed my experience at Call Me Gaby! There were 3 of us in my party and we shared the focaccia, gnocchi, and pizza between the 3 of us and it was enough. The food was all great and came out warm. Great service and attentiveness with refilling drinks. They have created at their outdoor seating. I will definitely be back!

There is no doubt that this place have an amazing decor, beautiful cozy cushions, fresh plants and veils of flowers all over the place. Dim lighting inside is addition to the decor. Spacious and lovely patio is cherry on top.
Music is great too and undoubtedly food is so so good. All dishes are freshly prepared and quite cheezy ( italian food)
I personally felt that they were rushing us even though we were there to experience just to eat. We were starving and craving for good food. Just the dishes were overpriced for the serving.
Good and unique experience.

We were a group of 10 and a baby having dinner outside in a lovely area. We had excellent service snd delicious food. We started with drinks and appetizers. Pot of meatballs had only 4 tiny meatballs but they were very flavorful. We also had urge margarita pizza. My entree was the Bronzino filet with black rice and asparagus. It was very delicious. To top it off, we had the molten chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream. That was beyond! It was a lovely evening and we would recommend and go back again on another trip.

So glad I found this spot on tik tok! Walking towards this place we got so excited listening to there Italian music playing in the background. The place itself is beautiful, they really make it seem like you're in Italy with the pretty flowers and pillows. The decor was gorgeous and the ambience was chill. My friend and I went for brunch and we were attended quickly.
We started off with the charcuterie board and it was so DELICIOUS! It was very filling for two people and we still had some left overs so it's definitely worth the price. In addition, we ordered the fiocchetti allá e pere

Walked in early Sunday afternoon with a girlfriend. The restaurant was pretty empty and yet when I asked the hostess for a table for 2 she said they were only accepting walk-ins after 9:30pm. It was about 6pm. I understand you have to give priority to those with reservations but there were many empty tables and not one person waiting. Lesson learned - if you really want to eat here, make a reservation.

This place lives up to the hype. The Gorgonzola gnocchi is absolutely delicious. We ordered various pizzas and the truffle one was my favorite. They serve their food on adorable Italian style plates which honestly transported me to my cousins house in Italy. Their patio is also so cute, complete with umbrellas and the decor is fabulous.

My husband and I stumbled into this cute place after walking from the South pointe park area, and we were gaging for some refreshments. We were sat in the area - for where you can have drinks only - which was adorable. Romantic, a lovely relaxing artistic vibe with soft false flickering candles, cute benches with pretty cushions. They have black and white striped umbrellas, and I have to say one of them was the largest one I have ever seen!!
A lovely place - so pretty - spot on for the decor. The wait staff were sweet, and efficient - although our server had no idea how to pour a heineken into

Good pizza - got the truffle was great but mediocre salads. I would say come for thick pizza and pasta looks good. The salads could use some work they are large vegetables chopped. Would come back it's a cute spot- pricey for what it is. The table was sticky also which I didn't like- looks more photogenic than it is.

Very charming and comfortable venue, cute and peaceful. Their pizza are AmazinG! I'm a huge pizza lover and thus for me to say so is a big deal indeed. They are crispy and fluffy on the top, with fresh and tasty ingredients. I've been to this restaurant twice and every time it was a lovely experience, very good moment. First with friends and second time with family, each time all together very well. The service is impeccable and the manager Perla is very nice, welcoming and I have only great things to say about the experience.
I salute the staff and congratulate the cook.
Bravo and thank you

For $300/hour you too can be unnecessarily put at risk for Covid while eating dinner here.
On multiple occasions we asked our server to put her mask back over her face and nose. She just kept playing with her nose. Then we asked the manager. As his mask fell below his nose he asked her about it and she said, "I only put it down WHEN IM TALKING"?!? He seemed fine with that explanation and walked away.
They have signs attached to the tables (see photos) about wearing your mask but THEY don't follow them.
Oh also another guest served her dogs water straight out of the water

Wow! Just wow! This place is something... something out of this world! The league of its own, probably one of the best Italian restaurants that I've ever been. Great atmosphere, very professional stuff and food that will evoke a standing ovations from your taste buds! Burrata salad, Maria pizza and cheese filled ravioli absolute dope! Must have! Keep in mind that this place is extremely popular among locals and tourists, so advanced reservation highly recommended.
