Osteria Vecchio Piemonte: Your Destination for Authentic Italian Cuisine in Miami

The best Italian Restaurant in Miami, it has special menu weekly and has a really good attention. Try the dessert with coffee, its my favorite

Delicious food, welcoming staff, and cozy atmosphere made for a great girls dinner. Felt like a real authentic Italian dinner experience. Very lovely.

Food is absolutely delicious. Menu is a bit pricey, portions are rather small, but the quality makes up for it. Service was very uncoordinated with multiple waiters coming by asking the same thing when we already ordered, almost too casual.

Such a wonderful experience here overall! The staff made you feel very welcome and went above and beyond. The food took a bit to come out but it was hot and fresh when it did. You can tell the pasta is homemade and the plates were seasoned well! The bread is crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. They celebrated our birthday as well with a dessert! Definitely will return.

My wife and I are regulars, we have gone either at lunch time or at dinner time and we have never been disappointed. No matter what we order, the food is always beyond excellent. Whenever he is there, we always listen to what Uriel, the head waiter, recommends and we have never been disappointed with what he tells us to try. Both Uriel and Juan Carlos, the owner, treat us like family. The place has an excellent "vibe" to it, even when full. If the food and the service were not completely top notch we would not be going back over an over.

If you are up for Italian food and around the Kendall area, this casual cozy Osteria ????????will surprise you. The spot is not pretentious at all, it is more along the lines of Miami's suburban areas, so you might miss it if you are not careful enough to spot it while driving by. We went to dinner on a weekday and were welcomed by JC, the host and server. He had a table ready for us, as we already had a reservation, and right away sent the other waiters to refresh us with some water, as he presented the wine menu. There were plenty of options, from Chianti to Piedmont, and we opted for a recommendation from JC, a Puglia wine that was one of the best things we tried during our dinner. As an appetizer, we tried the fried calamari, with zucchini and lemon. An option I wouldn’t order again as it didn't have anything special. Just a simple fried calamari with a regular dipping sauce. Then some of us were encouraged to order the specials, like the Bistecca ai Ferri (Grilled Skirt Steak ), which was tender enough to easily slice through. This would be my favorite dish (something very odd, as being an Italian restaurant you expect the pasta to be superb). The second-best dish could be the ravioli di mare topped with pink wine sauce). This type of pasta is not the one I would ever order, but it surprised me how good the consistency was. Then I could state the Ravioli di Zucca Burro e Salvia, Fresh homemade ravioli filled with ricotta, pumpkin, and amoretti cookies in a butter sage sauce. The pasta was al dente and the filling was very tasty, but a little bit too sweet. If you are a sweet tooth kind of person, definitely this is your choice. I love sweet stuff, but this was too much, even for me, still, I would give it the third and final place, and this is because I wouldn’t suggest the other two dishes. JC was friendly enough to split my plate so I could try the ravioli ricotta, as well as the Penne Zucca e Pancetta because I was undecided on which to order. The Penne was al dente, but the cheese sauce was too heavy and the Zucca was just sliced and mixed in the sauce, not adding any real value to the dish the worst part is that it was not real pancetta, it supposedly was prosciutto, but to be honest it didn’t taste like it. At least having the options of the two dishes combination balanced out the sweetness of the Ravioli. And the most disappointing dish to me was the Paglia e Fieno ai Funghi ???? which was supposed to be bathed in Truffle oil, but I never tasted it. The pasta was so dipped in sauce that it wasn’t even al dente and that’s a killer for me. The overall problem with the pasta was that the chef suffocates them in sauce, and if they were genuine, only with a scent of sauce it would be more than enough to excel. I do have to admit that I was obsessed with the garlic warm bread served on the table, I couldn’t stop eating it…In the end, the extra sauce from the pasta worked perfectly for dipping the bread with it, and always asked for it to be served warm, it makes all the difference. For Desserts, they brought some classic cannoli, which were too stiff and the cream was glued to it. We also had a white chocolate, lemon mascarpone with a scoop of ice cream , that actually was pretty refreshing because it balances the sweet and bitter on a sweet tasty spot. I would actually like to give it 3 stars and a half, ⭐⭐⭐ but there is no option for it, still I would stop by this Italian restaurant if I’m around and hungry for pasta and of course the garlic warm bread !

We decided to celebrate our Valentine’s Day after the mad rush was over. We checked the reviews and they were all amazing. We made our reservations and were so excited. It’s a small place but what they lack in space they more than make up for in spectacular service and such a welcoming attitude. Before we walked in we were immediately greeted and treated like family. The menu has a little bit of everything and the best thing is they will allow you to substitute items. Our server (Uriel) was the best!!!! His passion was so genuine and he was asking us questions on what we liked to ensure our meal was perfect and it was!!!! This place is what all restaurants should strive for. Treat your customers like family and make their experience as wonderful as possible. We loved everything about Osteria. We will definitely come back to try our other amazing dishes. If you’re carving some Italian food and amazing service look no further.
