Best Italian Restaurants in Merrick Park

this was our second time dining here and everything was exceptional!

Excellent food! Expensive bill though. Great for a special occasion.

The Meatball appetizer was light and melted in your mouth. We really enjoyed the Hog Snapper and the Lobster Ravioli. The Funk desert was recommended by the waiter and it marvelous and not to be missed. First visit to Caffe Violetta in over a year and it is better than ever. Attentive service and cozy ambience. An easy 5 stars.

A lovely experience on Valentine's Day which can be quite hectic and noisy in some restaurants. The hostess seated us immediately at a nice table by the window. Service was prompt; water, then warm rolls with a nice chimichurri sauce. Pablo, the waiter, took our drink orders right away; the manager, Jorge, checked at our table two times during the evening. The salad was very generous, enough for three of us. My husband thoroughly enjoyed the butternut squash soup. Our entrees were perfect. The excellent service by Pablo continued throughout the meal. The valet service was perfect. It can be challenging to park in Coral Gables so it was an appreciated amenity. We will definitely return.

Erba was absolutely stunning restaurant for my date and I to celebrate Valentines Day. The food and cocktails were made with care and quality locally sourced ingredients. Everything was 10/10 at Erba. It was both of our first time and the knowledge of the staff was educational and made the dinning a top notch experience. Recommend this for dates, impressing people, quality food, quality cocktails, ambiance, business meetings, and closing deals. Will go back many times. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
