Our Top Pick
RivaReno Gelato Brickell
Bologna-born gelato lab making everything fresh daily on-site with imported Italian ingredients and 100% Piedmont hazelnuts.

Notable Picks

$$ Brickell Ice Cream
Bologna-born gelato lab founded in 2004 by four friends—a car exec, BBC journalist, lawyer, and gelato maker—who chased the goal of making Italy's finest frozen dessert. The Cremino RivaReno and pistachio draw the most consistent praise, with reviewers frequently comparing the velvety texture to what they've had in Florence and Rome. Everything is churned daily in the on-site lab attached to the Mary Brickell Village shop, and staff encourage tastings without the hard sell. The $9+ small cups sting in a city with cheaper options, but the quality gap is noticeable—this is the spot when you want gelato that actually tastes like the real thing rather than sweetened ice milk. Best for: anyone who's been disappointed by every other 'authentic Italian' gelato claim in Miami.
Must-Try Dishes: Cremino RivaReno, Cremino Dark, Pistachio Gelato
What Makes it Special: Bologna-born gelato lab making everything fresh daily on-site with imported Italian ingredients and 100% Piedmont hazelnuts.
$$ Allapattah Sandwiches
Billy Durney—a former celebrity bodyguard who apprenticed with Texas legend Wayne Mueller—opened this Miami outpost in 2019 after building his reputation in Red Hook, Brooklyn, and the Bib Gourmand recognition confirms what the lines already told you. The salt-and-pepper crusted beef rib and charred brisket slices hold their own against central Texas benchmarks, served in a warehouse-chic space in the Produce Center with an open kitchen, long bar, and patio. Prices run steep for barbecue (expect $30+ per person before drinks), and weekend waits can stretch past an hour—though food arrives fast once you're seated. Delivery orders occasionally suffer from dryness, so dine in if you can. This is the spot when you want to impress out-of-towners or celebrate with a group that takes smoked meat seriously.
Must-Try Dishes: Beef Rib, Brisket, Cornbread with Honey Butter
What Makes it Special: Bib Gourmand-recognized pitmaster Billy Durney brings Texas-style barbecue to a massive warehouse space in Miami's Produce Center.
$$ Coral Way Pizza
Carmine Candito's 2022 world championship-winning Neapolitan technique meets the reliable neighborhood rhythm families depend on—48-hour fermented dough fired in a Naples-imported oven, yielding a high, pillowy cornicione that anchors both classic Margherita DOP orders and the ricotta-stuffed crust variation that regulars call out by name. The colorful tablecloths printed with La Smorfia bingo cards and Neapolitan terracotta figurines signal cultural commitment without straying into theme-restaurant territory, while manager Marcela and the front-of-house team keep service warm and attentive across multi-generational tables.
Must-Try Dishes: Margherita DOP, Cornicione di Ricotta (Ricotta-Stuffed Crust Pizza), Bucatini Cacio e Pepe
What Makes it Special: World champion pizzaiolo Carmine Candito crafts award-winning Neapolitan pies with 48-hour fermented dough in a Naples-imported wood-fired oven.
$$$ Brickell Steakhouse
Founded in 1999 by Marcelo Ferreiros and Gustavo Abudiab, Argentine expats who couldn't find proper Buenos Aires beef in Miami, this seven-location chain has become the local standard for grass-fed certified Angus skirt steak with house-made chimichurri. The Brickell outpost delivers what the founders promised: quality cuts at reasonable prices, a solid Argentine wine list, and live music that adds energy without overwhelming the room. Service gets praise for warmth and attentiveness, and the covered patio draws a loyal after-work crowd. Not reinventing anything—the milanesa and grilled empanadas haven't changed in 25 years—but that's precisely the point. A reliable neighborhood anchor for anyone who wants properly cooked steak without the scene or the $200 bill.
Must-Try Dishes: Certified Angus Skirt Steak, Grilled Empanadas, Filet Mignon
What Makes it Special: Ranked the #1 Argentine steakhouse in the US, serving authentic grass-fed steaks with house-made chimichurri since 1999.
$$ Brickell Breakfast
A relatively new all-day concept that pairs Neapolitan pizzas with creative brunch dishes in a modern, casual setting that works equally well for breakfast meetings or family weekend outings. The banana brulee French toast and lime tres leche have earned loyal followings, and the craft beer selection pairs surprisingly well with the pizza program. Limited review volume keeps this in Solid tier territory, but the feedback that exists skews strongly positive—reviewers consistently praise welcoming atmosphere and attentive service. The post-apocalyptic brunch plate is more whimsical than the name suggests. Best for those who want variety without pretense.
Must-Try Dishes: Banana Brulee French Toast, Neapolitan Pizza with Beet Sauce, Caprese Milanesa
What Makes it Special: All-day dining concept pairing signature Neapolitan pizzas with creative brunch dishes and craft beers in a modern setting.
$$ Wynwood Pizza
Michelin-recommended pizzeria where chef Renato Viola's signature star-shaped pies with ricotta-filled points deliver both visual appeal and 72-hour fermented dough quality. The thin, crisp crust and imported Italian ingredients consistently earn praise, with the Coffee Paolo offering an unexpected standout. Service runs notably attentive for a casual pizza spot.
Must-Try Dishes: Star Luca, The Fabio, Coffee Paolo
What Makes it Special: Award-winning chef Renato Viola creates signature star-shaped pizzas with ricotta-filled points, using 72-hour fermented dough and imported Italian ingredients.
$$ Brickell Italian
Chef Juca has hand-made every pasta, bread, and dessert in this open kitchen since 1994, building a loyal following that spans generations of Miami families celebrating milestones here. The neighborhood trattoria feel and reasonable prices deliver authentic Italian flavors without pretension, backed by three decades of consistency and staff who have worked there for 20+ years.
Must-Try Dishes: Pear and Gorgonzola Ravioli, Black Lobster Ravioli, Pappardelle with Short-Rib Ragu
What Makes it Special: Family-owned neighborhood gem since 1994 where you can watch Chef Juca hand-make all pasta, bread, and desserts daily in the open kitchen.
$$ Coconut Grove Barbecue
A Caribbean-inflected smokehouse from a former KYU executive chef who layers St. Croix-rooted spices — fresh thyme, sofrito, island-heat rubs — over traditional low-and-slow technique. The brisket carries a signature bark that separates it from Miami's otherwise thin BBQ bench, and the housemade sauces run a deliberate range from tangy mustard to smoky-sweet. Opened as a permanent Coconut Grove courtyard operation in late 2025 after five years as a viral pop-up, it runs until sold out — plan accordingly.
Must-Try Dishes: 16-Hour Smoked Prime Brisket, Smoked Chicken Wings with House-Made Mustard BBQ Sauce, Oak Smoked Spare Ribs
What Makes it Special: Former KYU executive chef Raheem Sealey fuses low-and-slow Southern smoking with Caribbean spices, fresh thyme, and sofrito — a flavor profile born from his St. Croix roots that no other Miami smokehouse replicates.
$$ Wynwood Middle Eastern
Jay Jwad arrived in Philadelphia in 2010 with $200, no English, and a bakery job; today he runs this Wynwood counter-service spot where everything—samoon bread, shawarma, falafel, hummus, sauces—is made from scratch with a three-day prep cycle. The steak shawarma draws the most attention, though the crispy falafel and goat cheese fingers deserve their share. Service is friendly and quick, the graffiti-covered space fits the neighborhood, and prices land well below what you'd pay at sit-down competitors. The beef shawarma skews spicier than traditional, which won't suit everyone. A smart lunch choice when you want quality Mediterranean fast-casual without the Chipotle-style assembly line feel.
Must-Try Dishes: Steak Shawarma Wrap, Crispy Falafel, Goat Cheese Fingers
What Makes it Special: Everything made from scratch with no frozen bread—fresh-baked samoon daily, three-day shawarma prep, and house-made sauces with premium ingredients.
$$ Coral Way Mediterranean
A 52-seat taverna where founder Maria's daughter Angela still cooks from a menu that has barely changed in 40-plus years, anchored by top-quality American lamb chops, a gyro platter that regulars swear is the benchmark for Miami, and a spanakopita with an unusually crust-like phyllo cap that sets it apart from the standard version. The plain-facade, no-frills room has poor acoustics when full — expect noise during peak service — but the pricing-to-portion math is generous enough that most tables leave with leftovers. Consistency across four decades and a loyal neighborhood following earned it a local Best Greek recognition in 2024.
Must-Try Dishes: Chargrilled Octopus with Fava Bean Puree, Char-Broiled Lamb Chops, Gyro Platter
What Makes it Special: 52-seat taverna operating since 1982 where 97-year-old founder Maria's daughter Angela still cooks from an almost-unchanged menu using top-quality American lamb and a uniquely crust-like phyllo technique on the spanakopita.
$$ Wynwood Mexican
A San Diego transplant that runs its Wynwood counter on Tijuana street-taco discipline—a visible rotating trompo, handmade corn tortillas, and each taco individually wrapped in paper to keep the build intact. The carne asada and al pastor carry the lineup, and the California burrito stuffed with fries stays true to the cross-border playbook. Lines form daily at lunch and dinner because the execution stays tight even at volume.
Must-Try Dishes: Taco Al Pastor, California Burrito, Taco de Pescado Frito
What Makes it Special: San Diego transplant bringing Tijuana-style street taco precision to Wynwood — handmade corn tortillas, a visible rotating trompo, and tacos individually wrapped in paper like they do across the border.
$$ Brickell Japanese
Chef Yu opened the original 107 Taste in 2016 on 107th Ave after earning her hospitality master's from FIU, expanding to this Brickell location with a pan-Asian menu spanning Japanese, Korean, Thai, and Chinese staples—all built on house-made sauces. The pad thai draws connoisseur-level praise, and the takoyaki and tonkotsu ramen deliver solid execution at neighborhood-friendly prices. Generous portions keep the value equation honest, though service can lag when the room fills and an 18% gratuity kicks in for groups. A practical everyday option that over-delivers on quality for its price bracket.
Must-Try Dishes: Takoyaki, Pad Thai, Korean Kimchi Ramen
What Makes it Special: An Asian women-owned Pan-Asian spot with house-made sauces, sustainable practices, and Miami's most praised pad thai at neighborhood prices.
$ Brickell Ice Cream
Buenos Aires institution since 1969 that helped define Argentine helado culture, now operating multiple Miami outposts including this Brickell location. The dulce de leche varieties—especially the Temptation and Oreo versions—are the draw, delivering that supercreamy, almost chewy texture that distinguishes Argentine-style from Italian gelato. Zabaione and the mascarpone-based flavors show range beyond the caramel-forward signatures. Prices creep toward $10 for modest portions, which feels steep given the casual counter-service format, and some fruit flavors land flat compared to the cream-based hits. Best for: dulce de leche devotees and anyone curious about what makes Argentine helado different from its Italian cousin.
Must-Try Dishes: Dulce de Leche Temptation, Dulce de Leche Oreo, Tiramisu
What Makes it Special: Buenos Aires institution since 1969 serving supercreamy Argentine helado with multiple dulce de leche varieties unavailable elsewhere.
8.1
$$ Brickell Pizza
Founded in Treviso, Italy in 1986 by brothers Stefano and Dante Carniato, this international chain built its reputation on super-thin crust pizzas even lighter than traditional Neapolitan style, with creative toppings inspired by cities worldwide. The Brickell location draws a loyal happy hour crowd with $9-16 pizzas and a relaxed, hip atmosphere that works equally well for groups or solo dining. Servers like Ornela and Mateo get called out by name for friendly service, though kitchen timing can stretch uncomfortably long even when the room is half-empty. The Thursday gnocchi special has cult status. A dependable neighborhood Italian spot that rewards regulars more than one-time visitors.
Must-Try Dishes: Rio de Janeiro, Piola Summer, Gnocchi Alfredo
What Makes it Special: International Italian chain known for super-thin crust pizzas even thinner than Neapolitan style, with creative toppings inspired by cities worldwide.
$$ Allapattah Barbecue, Cocktail Bars
A Bib Gourmand-holding wood-fire program where the brisket and beef rib anchor everything—salt-and-pepper crusted, white-oak smoked, and built to compete with Texas originals rather than imitate them. The warehouse-scale Allapattah space and full bar give it a social gravity that most BBQ operations lack, pulling groups who want to spread platters across a long table and settle in. Counter service at lunch keeps the line moving; dinner shifts to table service with a cocktail program that rounds out the experience, though sides and drinks draw more mixed reactions than the core meats.
Must-Try Dishes: Brisket (by the Half Pound), Beef Rib, Oaxacan Chicken
What Makes it Special: Bib Gourmand-awarded pitmaster Billy Durney's Brooklyn barbecue transplant, featuring a wood-fired program with live-fire specials exclusive to the Miami location.
$$ Coconut Grove Middle Eastern
A family-run counter-service restaurant and market at the edge of Coconut Grove where the Mazzawi family has been baking pita in-house and frying falafel and kibbeh to order since 1975. The shawarma and hummus carry a multi-generational following, and the attached market stocks Middle Eastern specialty groceries that extend the experience beyond the meal. It operates on disposable plates and cafeteria seating — the food consistently outpaces the presentation.
Must-Try Dishes: Beef Shawarma Sandwich, Fried Kibbeh, Falafel Sandwich
What Makes it Special: A family-owned Middle Eastern market-restaurant hybrid run by the Mazzawi family since 1975, baking fresh pita daily on-site and frying falafel and kibbeh to order at the counter.
8.1
$$ Brickell Mexican
Founded on the beaches of the Yucatán in 2006 and expanded into a beloved New York-born chain, Tacombi brings its cantina-casual format to Brickell with small-format tacos made from pasture-raised proteins and a proper trompo for al pastor. The gobernador and birria are the signatures that justify the mini-empire, and the breezy, colorful space channels vacation energy without trying too hard. Service is friendly and knowledgeable—servers like Robert and Luis get called out by name in reviews. Portions lean modest at NYC-transplant prices, so expect to order several tacos per person. Solid pick for a quick, consistently executed lunch that delivers on the authenticity promise without theatrics.
Must-Try Dishes: Taco Gobernador, Birria Taco, Baja Crispy Fish Taco
What Makes it Special: Born on the beaches of the Yucatán, this taqueria serves authentic small-format tacos with pasture-raised proteins and traditionally prepared al pastor on a trompo.
$$ Coral Way French
A tiny Coral Way café where identical twin French chefs bake everything from scratch daily — when the croissants sell out, that's confirmation the goods are fresh, not frozen. The loaded egg specials and Le Parisienne crepe run the table for under $15 in a market where comparable brunch spots charge double, making it the kind of neighborhood repeat where you eventually learn to tell the twins apart. Six tables of four, counter service, and a quiet Parisian-diner energy that fits the format without pretending to be something it's not.
Must-Try Dishes: Le Parisienne Crepe, French Toast with Caramelized Apples & Pecans, Egg Special with Turkey, Brie & Spinach
What Makes it Special: Run by identical twin French chefs who bake everything fresh daily in a tiny Coral Way café that feels like a neighborhood Parisian diner — at Miami prices that barely exist anymore.
$$ Allapattah Pizza
LA transplant brings California-Italian comfort food to an art museum setting, with standout spicy fusilli and ricotta toast that justify the hype. The Rubell Museum location delivers a visually striking dining room with kelly green booths and pizza-box decor. Best for groups sharing family-style plates before or after exploring the galleries.
Must-Try Dishes: Bronx Bomber Pizza, Spicy Fusilli, Marinara Meatballs with Focaccia
What Makes it Special: LA's beloved California-Italian restaurant brings its famous red sauce dishes and playful dining experience to Miami's art scene at the Rubell Museum.
$$ Coral Way French
A 27-year-old French-Latin bakery-café producing up to 1,500 hand-rolled croissants daily while running a parallel menu of empanadas, pan de bono, and tequeños — a cultural crossover that reflects the Coral Way corridor better than any single-note French spot could. The Croque Madame, Pain Perdu, and Scrambled Eggs Black Forest carry the savory side, though the check can creep higher than the bakery-café format suggests, particularly during weekend brunch when the 80-seat room fills and service pacing stretches. The recently added Bistro Menu signals ambition beyond daytime pastry, which is worth watching.
Must-Try Dishes: Croque Madame "Our Style", French Toast - "Pain Perdu", Gourmet Baked Beef Empanada
What Makes it Special: A 25-year-old French-Latin fusion bakery-café that bakes croissants using traditional butter lamination techniques while folding in Venezuelan tequeños, Argentinian empanadas, and Colombian pan de bono — a cultural mashup no other Coral Way spot pulls off.
$$ Coral Way Mediterranean
A third-generation family taverna on Coral Way built on hefty, comfort-forward Greek staples — fork-tender lamb shank, flaky spanakopita, and a galaktoboureko that earns its own following. The covered patio is the draw for the setting, and servers like Lorena and Javier are routinely called out by name for attentive, personalized hospitality. Recent reviews show occasional unevenness in execution, which keeps the kitchen from running away with the score, but the 50-year track record and broad dietary flexibility (keto through vegan) make it a dependable Coral Way anchor.
Must-Try Dishes: Grilled Octopus, Lamb Shank, Shrimp Saganaki
What Makes it Special: Family-owned since 1973 by Chef Yiannis from Santorini and wife Maria from Chios, now in its third generation with culinary school-trained son Alexios modernizing cherished island recipes.
$$ Wynwood Indian
A no-frills halal kitchen on the Wynwood-adjacent corridor where the owner walks you through the menu and portions are sized like you're eating at someone's home—the tandoori biryani in particular overdelivers for its price point. The space is basic and could use cosmetic attention, but the cooking is clean-flavored and freshness-forward in a way that higher-priced competitors don't always match. It fills a specific lane for budget-conscious diners and halal-seeking families who prioritize what's on the plate over what's on the walls.
Must-Try Dishes: Chicken Tandoori Biryani, Gobi Manchurian, Chicken 65
What Makes it Special: A no-frills, family-operated halal kitchen in the Wynwood-adjacent corridor where the owner personally guides first-timers through the menu—what it lacks in décor it overdelivers on generous portions, authentic spice calibration, and some of the most underpriced biryanis in Miami.

Worthy Picks

$$ Wynwood Asian Fusion
Miami's original Asian food hall since November 2017, packing seven vendors, two bars, karaoke, and a record shop into a 10,000-square-foot Wynwood warehouse that transforms from casual lunch spot to DJ-driven nightlife venue after 9pm. B-Side's sushi counter and Jeepney's Filipino sisig are the standouts—the rest ranges from solid to forgettable depending on the vendor and the night. Volume becomes punishing after 7pm, making conversation nearly impossible and pushing this firmly into 'party atmosphere' territory rather than serious dining. Skip the overpriced bubble tea, bring a group who can't agree on one cuisine, and lean into the chaotic energy rather than fighting it.
Must-Try Dishes: Shrimp Dumplings (YIP), Sisig Triple Cooked Pork Belly (Jeepney), Pork Belly Ramen (Hayato)
What Makes it Special: Miami's original Asian food hall packs seven vendors, two bars, and a karaoke room into a 10,000 sq ft Wynwood warehouse that transforms from food hall to nightclub after dark.
$$ Allapattah Mexican
A family-owned Allapattah taquería running on a decade-long groove of overstuffed quesadillas, rich birria, and Monday-only gorditas filled with slow-cooked stews like chicharrón and calabacitas that pull a loyal weekly crowd. The back bar with its cumbia soundtrack and micheladas gives it a second personality after dark. Service runs at its own pace—this is not a quick-hit spot—but the $1.81 taco days and generous portions make the wait easy to absorb.
Must-Try Dishes: Quesabirria, Gorditas, Grilled Steak 1810 Style
What Makes it Special: Family-owned Allapattah taquería since 2014 with a hidden back bar, cumbia soundtrack, and Monday-only gorditas stuffed with rich stews like chicharrón and calabacitas that have built a cult following.
$ Brickell Ice Cream
DIY frozen yogurt operation on Calle Ocho with house-created flavors like taro and speculoos that give it an identity beyond the usual self-serve chains. The fresh fruit bar with 12-15 varieties cut daily elevates the topping game, and the savory crêpes—particularly the smoked salmon—offer a legitimate alternative to the sweet stuff. Staff let you sample freely, and the pay-by-weight model means you control portion costs in a way the premium gelato spots don't allow. The space itself is functional rather than atmospheric, and afternoon-only weekday hours limit spontaneous visits. Best for: families with picky eaters who want options, and anyone who appreciates being able to taste before committing.
Must-Try Dishes: Taro Frozen Yogurt, YUZU Crêpe, Nutella Strawberry Crêpe
What Makes it Special: DIY frozen yogurt with house-created flavors like Taro and Speculoos plus a fresh fruit bar with 12-15 daily varieties.
$$$ Allapattah Italian
An LA transplant operating inside a contemporary art museum, serving nostalgia-driven Italian-American food designed to be eaten with your hands and shared across the table. The thin-crust pizzas deliver—crispy edges, good flop, reliable toppings—while the gem lettuce salad with Calabrian chili dressing quietly outperforms the pastas. The playful indoor-outdoor space with oversized green booths and crayon-on-the-menu energy makes it a natural post-gallery landing pad for groups and families who want flavor without formality.
Must-Try Dishes: Spicy Fusilli, LA Woman Pizza, Gem Lettuce Salad
What Makes it Special: LA's cult-favorite Italian-American restaurant operating a limited-run residency inside the Rubell Museum, merging contemporary art with nostalgia-driven red sauce cooking from South Florida-raised chefs.
$ Allapattah Bakery
A Little Santo Domingo anchor that punches above its price point with passion fruit and mango mousse entremets and a layered dobos torte that belong in a pâtisserie display case, not a neighborhood bakery counter. The Dominican bizcocho and habichuelas con dulce keep the regulars cycling through, while the spacious post-relocation space handles family groups comfortably. Service can be uneven and the cake quality polarizes reviewers, so come for the specialty pastry case rather than the signature cake if consistency matters to you.
Must-Try Dishes: Bizcocho Dominicano de Piña (Dominican Pineapple Cake), Empanadas Fritas, Flan Cheesecake
What Makes it Special: A 20-plus-year Allapattah institution producing mousse entremets and a Hungarian-style dobos torte that rival high-end pâtisseries—at Dominican bakery prices.
$$ Midtown Indian
A family-owned chain that stands out in Miami for bridging North and South Indian menus under one roof—the Uthappam, a South Indian rice-and-lentil pancake served with three accompaniments, is a dish you won't find at most of the city's Indian restaurants. Hussain family recipes drive a wide-ranging menu where goat mango curry and samosa chaat are consistent draws at this quiet Midtown location. Reliable food quality is tempered by occasionally unpredictable operations, so confirming your reservation by phone before heading over is a smart move.
Must-Try Dishes: Chicken Tikka Masala, Goat Mango Curry, Samosa Chaat
What Makes it Special: Family-owned chain with four Miami locations that uniquely bridges North and South Indian menus—one of the rare Miami spots serving authentic Uthappam alongside Mughlai lamb chops, with recipes from the Hussain family kitchen.
$$ Coral Way Mexican
A family-run Coral Gate taqueria where handmade tortillas and from-scratch salsas set the foundation for straightforward Mexican plates—birria, mole, and fish tacos that lean on fresh ingredients over high technique. The owner-operated format keeps the food personal but can stretch thin on staffing during busier nights, so temper expectations on service speed. Friday mariachi turns the colorful, mural-lined dining room into a livelier scene for families willing to trade quiet conversation for energy.
Must-Try Dishes: Birria Tacos, Pollo en Mole Poblano, Fish Tacos
What Makes it Special: Family-run Coral Gate taqueria making handmade tortillas and salsas from scratch daily, with a colorful mural-adorned dining room and live mariachi on Friday nights.
$ Allapattah Sandwiches
A neighborhood staple since 1998 serving Allapattah's working crowd the Cuban comfort food they grew up on—pressed sandwiches, masas de puerco, and tamales en hoja at prices that keep regulars coming back for decades. The staff moves like busy bees and portions are generous, but service consistency can be hit-or-miss; some visits feel like family, others leave you waiting too long for acknowledgment. Delivery quality has drawn complaints (soggy croquetas, skimpy portions), so eat in when possible. The dining room has that classic Miami cafeteria energy—nothing fancy, just functional. Best for a cheap, filling breakfast before work or a comforting lunch when you want something that tastes like your abuela made it.
Must-Try Dishes: Sandwich Cubano Especial, Desayuno Combo, Tostones
What Makes it Special: A neighborhood institution since 1998 serving authentic Cuban comfort food at prices that keep families coming back.
$$ Wynwood Pizza
Family-owned brick oven operation where the hot honey pepperoni draws regulars willing to drive across town for the smoky char. Counter service in a compact space with street art decor keeps the vibe casual and quick. Solid neighborhood option when Wynwood's trendier pizza spots have long waits.
Must-Try Dishes: Hot Honey Pepperoni Pizza, White Truffle Pizza, Margherita
What Makes it Special: Family-owned brick oven pizzeria where skilled locals tend the fire, imparting a unique smoky flavor to each artisanal pie.
$$ Brickell Italian
This Treviso-born chain serves ultra-thin brick-oven crusts at wallet-friendly prices, with individual pizzas ranging from $9-16 in a lively, casual setting. The variety of creative toppings and attached Italian market appeal to families and budget-conscious diners, though service pacing can be inconsistent with wait times occasionally stretching past an hour.
Must-Try Dishes: Margherita Pizza, Burrata Pizza, Rio de Janeiro Pizza
What Makes it Special: Treviso-born pizzeria serving ultra-thin brick-oven crusts thinner than Neapolitan style, with an attached Italian market for imported goods.
