Fratelli La Bufala

We stopped here before going to the beach for breakfast. The nights before, this place was full, so we figured they would be a good place to grab a bite to eat. When we first stepped in, the place was empty. Someone eventually came to seat us. I am glad we decided to stay and wait for someone to greet us. It was pretty cool having the place to ourselves too. Pros: -Delicious food. The smoked salmon was a hit on both items-Clean restrooms-Clean restaurant-Server was nice -The fresh bread smelled so good baking in the oven.-Cute setup ***The potatoes were the BEST I have ever had, and that says a lot coming from me. We tore those up. Cons: Nothing

I don't understand what's going on with Miami Beach managers, I was at this place at 11:15 and I will lip e their pizza, but, unfortunately they refused businesses from Miami Beach residents before you supposed to closed, don't even ask if I want to have to go, which I would appreciate it.The entire restaurant was setting up for business, but the manager(lady) was sitting and watching on her phone.Just to let you know you lost not 1 client, but, several clients.The issue is the incompetents personal doesn't care because they jump from one place to another.Good luck

I had the traditional Margherita as well as the Reale pizza. Because I ordered for take out (yes takeout!) I got to buzz around and watch my pizzas being made. See videos. While I waited I took a peek at the customer's plates who were seated and boy oh boy did their pastas look delish! My pizzas were cooked perfectly with just the right amount of charring on the edges and not on the bottom. Praise the Pizza gods! Notes on toppings: I got only a few pieces of basil on my Margherita, I wish there was more. Maybe I could have asked for more had I been a dine in customer. My Reale was amazing although I did witness a scant amount of Parmesan that decorated my pizza. They could have put more on it.However despite the above, my pizza was perfect, (remember I said it was take out) even after the gruelling 10minute wait until I got to the beach settled down and finally got my first bite. If the pizza tasted that good 10min later can you imagine if I dined in and ate it right away! Oh and pizza was ready in minutes, no long waiting like other restaurants. And the staff were quick! I will definitely return for a dine in experience!

Good pizza located close to our Hotel in Miami. Service was a little slow, but we weren't in a rush. Pizzas are a nice size for each person. We sat inside- the street is pretty busy, so wasn't as loud.

Bottom line: More of a 4.5 star experience here at Fratelli La Bufala for dinner. The Burrata and Ossobuco both were delicious. Service was good and helpful. Nice classic Italian type of feeling inside, enjoyable. The Deets:After getting drinks at Minibar, we decided to walk over to Fratelli La Bufala to grab dinner one Saturday night in South Beach. This Italian restaurant is one that Chris M. had mentioned he had been wanting to try so off we went. We were seated quickly, choosing to take an inside table instead of the many vacant outside tables available. This place was decently crowded so I was looking forward to a good experience. The inside gives a cozy classic Italian type of feeling, part restaurant/bistro/pizzeria type of look. Our server did well getting our drink orders and make sure about any questions we had. Note: There was a free glass of prosecco Yelp check in offer at the time of this visit, one I did take advantage of this visit! We enjoyed some burrata pre-meal and it was great, loved it. The menu here has a good variety of offerings including classic and gourmet pizzas, calzone, insalate, antipasti, pasta, entrees, desserts, etc. Having enjoyed some carbonara the night before at Eating House, I decided to go with the Ossobuco (menu describes as "braised veal shank with rich red wine stock and onion served w/truffle potato purée") that sounded so good. Chris M. decided to go with the Carbonara here. As you can see from the pic I nabbed before we started eating, these selections looked great when delivered to our table and we agreed that the food was delicious. I enjoyed the Ossobuco as a tasty non-pasta choice, it was tender and had wonderful flavor. Price is what you would expect for a good meal in the South Beach area, without being too out of the park, the price is comparable to the quality. I'm glad we stopped into Fratelli La Bufala for dinner, I'd say a 4.5 star visit. If I get the chance to come back in the future, I would definitely explore more on their menu as they have so much to choose from here.

Incredible pizza, excellent service, and a great location! The pizza was so good, so crispy, and so fresh! We ordered a margherita pizza and mortazza pizza. We did not realize that the mortazza pizza had pork on it, and we're not able to eat pork, so we had to kindly ask if they could remake it without pork. The man making the pizzas was so kind and understanding and he remade the pizza without hesitation and added some more vegetables to spice it up. We were so appreciative! Both pizzas were delicious, flavorful, and fresh. Overall great place and I can't wait to come back!

This place was amazing! Not busy and the food was great. I had the burrata and Margherita pizza-- I would recommend them both. Our server was excellent and the atmosphere inside was nice. Great dinner spot.

Great pizza selection, authentic Italian.Recommended.Try the tiramisu or the panna cotta.

Everything was delicious! Restaurant a bit beat up but still great for family. Service was a little tough to but all together great time.

1) Service was fast, friendly, and attentive. Still has the B.S. service charge that every restaurant in Miami Beach has, but unlike the others, they warned us of that before we paid.2) Food was delicious. The Pappardelle Ai Funghi Porcini was packed with flavor and was not shy with the mushroom and sausage. The Casertana pizza was great too. Hot and ready, big enough for two people, and had plenty of cheese.3) Ambiance was beautiful. Gives off that cozy Italian feel. Music wasn't obnoxious or intrusive.4) Price was reasonable. Menu averaged around $20. Noticeably less than the surrounding restaurants.Only gripe I had was the small table. Could barely fit my two orders, but it was just me and one other, so that can slide.
