Boia De

Underrated dinner spot in Miami 🍝

The mushrooms are so good fresh & delicious for an appetizer. The saffron pasta is a great option for a main course. I’ve had saffron pasta before and I can say this one tastes wayyy better than what I had before 🤤

Then there was the lamb rib that was also well cooked and well flavor. Slightly spicy 🌶

Excellent service - Would come again🌟

Great find!!! This place is a Gem. The dishes are so tasty and different. Staff is wonderful. I will come back soon, need to sample the rest of the menu. But for today my faves are steak tartar( first time having it anywhere) and the chocolate budino paired with the port

With an accolade and like many, I was eager to try Boia De but unfortunately, its not for me. After getting a challenging reservation, the food fell short, and a couple of the dishes were just overpowering with sourness (Salad & Polenta). Beef tartar, gnocchi sausage truffles and another pasta dish were good but for a restaurant of this distinction and price point, it was average plus. But what do I know.🤷‍♂️ I do appreciate the inventiveness the chef is trying to create. The space is cozy and tastefully decorated with about 2ft of space between tables and you can easily get to know your neighbors if you so choose. Service is attentive and we were greeted warmly. Thank you.🙏

Amazing experience! The food is incredible. Quite the culinary adventure. The whole team and every dish made the experience phenomenal. Unexpected location for an extraordinarily unexpected and awesome meal!

The ambience and vibe at Boia De is truly special. In the background 70s rock played over the speakers, the neon and colorful design from the exterior to the back. But the food, oh my. Each dish was more superb than the last. Our waiter recommended incredible dishes that left us satiated while craving more. The perfect meal. We will certainly be back to Boia De.

Boia De is a hidden gem in every sense. The location in perfect, there is always parking and service is superb. Every single dish on the menu is just delicious. Make sure you order the pappardelle, the lamb ribs and Luci’s chopped salad, which is surprisingly simple and still to die for. Don’t miss the espresso, locally roasted by Great Circle a few blocks down the road. Make a reservation since the place is not very big and it is usually fully booked. (If you were a fan of La Pollita back in the day, good news: same owners!)

What can I say about "Boia De!" it is far and beyond one of the top restaurants in Miami. Despite its unassuming exterior, decoration, and location this is my favourite restaurant in all of Miami, and has some of the best and most creative gastronomy. And people seem to agree since it is becoming increasingly difficult to get a table either through reservation or walk in. Further, the staff are all extremely professional, friendly, and helpful. We met one of the co-chefs: Luciana Giangrandi, as we wanted to congratulate her for the exceptional restaurant she had taken part in brining to life, and she was extremely lovely and charismatic.

In my opinion it is the best restaurant that has as it's core Italian culinary tradition. The menu is condensed but very creative, sustainable, and seasonal. But every single dish on it is expertly prepared and presented. As we know, we first eat with our eyes first. And to that end plating is always on point and extremely creative. Special note to the Chicken Paté and Foie Paté which is served in the most unconventional yet beautiful and functional way I've seen it done. My favourite dishes on the menu as of writing this are the Tagliolini Nero, Bone Marrow, Parpadelle alla Lepre, English Pea Cestini, Chicken Liver and Foie Paté, and the Tartare.

Overall, Boia De! is a must try restaurant in Miami. And one of the single best dining experiences I've had. It has beat many of the Michelin star establishments I have been to. I look forward to going over and over again, only trouble will be finding an open table. Especially as the magnificence of the restaurant and the talent of it's two chef's gains popularity. I look forward to seeing what the future holds for them, with their talents, it surely is bright.

Interesting menu that I'm glad I tried. The meal was composed of overly-stated appetizers with very bold stating profiles. The service is professional and friendly and super casual, less intimate or romantic.

first off, go set a reservation for this place on resy immediately! the food was excellent, the service was top notch, and i can’t wait to go again. it’s one of this rare places where i can ask the servers to just pick for me and whatever shows up will be amazing.
they even had peche! they recently were awarded a michelin star, so i imagine that will affect how easy it is to get a reservation. totally worth the wait.

Incredible dining experience from start to finish! Not only is the food incredibly delicious, but the service is impeccable. Our water glasses never went empty and there was never a single crumb left on the table. We tried the beef tartare, Luci’s chopped salad, lamb ribs, pappardelle alla lepre, and crispy tiramisu. Everything was perfection! Can’t wait to go back and try the other half of the menu. Thanks for such a beautiful dinner, we loved it! FYI, make a reservation, this place fills up quick.
