Via Emilia 9

We came here for a welcome dinner for a wedding we were attending. This place definitely had Miami vibes. There is street parking available in the front. There is seating inside and a few tables outside on the sidewalk. Tuesday is Wine Tuesdays. 50% off the wine list. The staff was friendly attentive, but seemed to consistently reach over me as I was eating.The food was very good. We had a set menu. First was the Eggplant Parm. They grill it here instead of frying it which actually worked out for me. I sometimes get sick from fried eggplant. Next were the meatballs. They were surprisingly good for not being in a red sauce. This was the first time I've had Italian meatballs that weren't in a red sauce. Definitely made with the top quality meat and spices. Last course was Lasagne Bolognese. Lots of flavor and very delicious. Not much red sauce on it like a typical lasagne. The meat more than made up for the limited sauce.

Ooooff! The pasta here is phenomenonal! So fresh and authentic. It is a bit pricey but so wellWorth it. The flavors are so fresh

Nice ambiance, but the food was a bit disappointing. Pasta is probably the way to go here. I asked if they had a gluten free pasta and didn't get an answer, so I ordered the octopus. It was charred, with a prominent burnt flavor. The potatoes were also fried to a crisp. And it didn't come with a sauce? I ended up using the oil and vinegar on the table because so it was so dry. Again, I'm confident other dishes here could be good! My friends seemed to enjoy it- the octopus just wasn't one of them.I had the panna cotta for desert, that was good! I'm happy I could end the meal on a better note.

Excellent food, served by the most awfully loud, hectic, and disheveled staff you can imagine. If you like circuses, come here... loud music, come here. If you like equally good food in a more peaceful and relaxed environment: go elsewhere. Three stars because the food was excellent.

Ive been coming to this place since 2015, one of the best homemade freshly rolled ravioli and pasta place. They are nice for lunch on a Saturday when its not too crowded, never a disappointment and amazing dessert also

Omg this authentic Italian restaurant is everything!The place is super cute and the decor has a simple and clean elegance to it. Our server Roberta was phenomenal and from Itlay. Authentic all the way here. Ingredients are from Italy and pasta made fresh and in house daily. They even have a market selling sausages and pasta and even have classes to teach how to prepare a fabulous meal.It was my aunts birthday and with Miami Spice we thought this was the perfect intimate gathering for our family. Everything on the menu sounded exciting amd taste worthy. Everyone besides myself and stepdad went with the miami spice menu It was all good cause my fork.would be tasting everyone else's dishes. We started off with a complimentary starter. I'm so sorry I don't remember what it was called but it had a delish cheese that was like mousse with a drizzle of balsamic, absolutely delicious. I can eat these like popcorn. Starters on the rest of the table were the Burrata e Pomodorini, the Parmigiana di Melanzane (this is an absolute MUST) and the Prosciutto di Parma con Gnocco Fritto. All of.these were delish and I can so do a repeat on all of them happily. The freshness and taste were just all here.Main dishes were 2 tagliatelle al ragu, tagliatelle al Prosciutto di Parma, and Tagliolini all' Astice (think lobster pasta). All were fresh, homemade and just fabulous. Everything we ate got great reviews from us all. To the end the night I had a blueberry panna cotta, I didn't share. I don't care either, lol. It's one of my favorite desserts. It was scrumptious. Around the table there was Gelato and Tenerina al Cioccolato (warm chocolate brownie with macaroons with strawberries). Everyone eas beyond satisfied. This place is authentically fabulous and a definite Must! Enjoy

I've been wanting to try this place for a while now and the food and service didn't disappoint. Their pasta can compete against some of the best in south beach. I was a little skeptical of the location but once inside it's very authentic. I'm only giving it 3 stars because the music was so irritating ~loud Spanish rap (on a Wednesday) that completely took away from the beautiful Italian charm of the restaurant. I really hope the music gets sorted as I'd love to go back.

I live down the street and must have walked by Via Emila a dozen times, well I was coming back home from a long walk and was craving a bolognese. Saw the menu stand and decided to give it a shot, oh man, first I can't say enough about the service, really amazing by any standards, really make you feel at home, not to mention as if you're home in a little Italian village. I ordered the artichoke salad which the waitress recommended and the bolognese, eureka...with a glass of montepuliciano, or two...it was a fantastic dinner. My new fav local Italian. Really makes me think I may stay in south beach for a while ...Mille grazie Valentina e il team

For those with gluten sensitivity, they can switch out any of the pastas with the GF spaghetti and add the sauce. Only one option of pasta for GF is spaghetti (not sure if it is house-made). Ordered the Tagliatelle Panna Salsiccia e Funghi made gluten-free with GF spaghetti. Not as great as the real thing, but the mushroom and sausage cream sauce was still good. 6/10Clam pasta: the pasta itself tasted good but very little clam flavor, in fact they were so tiny you couldn't taste it. 3/10Tiramisu: no coffee flavor, rather disappointing, 2/10Panna cotta with blueberries: not bad, 6/10Cappuccino: a bit too much on the milky side, for my taste, I like to be able to taste the coffee. 4/10Wines were good 8/10

Best Italian restaurant in the miami area and is not close! Tortellini in brodo is excellent!!!!
