“We drove all the way from Naples to Miami with friends just to try Luca Osteria, and it was absolutely worth the trip. There were four of us, and we booked our dinner reservation for 5:30 PM. I’d definitely recommend making reservations a few days in advance, especially if you’re planning to visit on a weekend because the place fills up quickly. From the moment we walked in, the ambience felt warm, cozy, and welcoming. The restaurant itself is beautifully designed and creates the perfect atmosphere for a relaxed Italian dinner. One thing we really appreciated was how knowledgeable and attentive the servers were. They explained the menu and daily specials in detail, which made the experience feel even more personal. For appetizers, we ordered the Sullivan Street Bakery Focaccia and the Tomato ‘Nduja. Both were delicious, but the Tomato ‘Nduja was easily one of our favorite dishes of the night. For mains, we tried the Pasta Al Limone, Pasta Al Pesto, and their special Truffle Pasta. Every dish was flavorful and perfectly prepared, but the Truffle Pasta truly stood out. We finished dinner with Tiramisu, and honestly, the cream was one of the smoothest and most delicious I’ve ever had. Overall, Luca Osteria exceeded our expectations, and I would highly recommend it to anyone who loves authentic Italian food and a great dining experience.”
“Incredible experience at Luca Osteria! The customer service was top-notch from start to finish. The risotto was beautifully creamy with a perfect consistency. It was my first time trying the Pasta al Limone, and it didn't disappoint—the acidity was spot on and the pasta was perfectly al dente. Don't miss the potatoes with truffle pâté; they were delicious. A huge thank you to Andres and the entire team. We will definitely be back!”
“This place is spectacular. Each dish is perfectly complimented and made to appeal to each sense. Andres our waiter was so incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about each dish and wine. We came for the valentines pre set menu and it was one of best meals we have ever had. A must try in coral gables!!!!”
“Great food, recommend trying Patates frittas, which is mushed potatoes in panco crust and fried, it comes with very rich truffle sause , probably a million calories but it's worth it. Lamb shanks and Cacio E Pepe were great too, also recommended. Ambiance is simple but cozy, with indoor and outdoor options.”
“Amazing place — it truly feels like sitting on a terrace somewhere in Italy, enjoying a perfect bowl of pasta. Make sure to order the patate fritte — they’re a must. The black truffle pasta(special ) was incredible. A spot we will definitely return to”
