Caffe AbbracciAlways GoodI have been going to Caffe Abbracci for many years and can truthfully say that I have never been disappointed. I have become friends with the owner and some of the wait staff and they couldn't be friendlier. And the food is superb. I highly recommend this restaurant. It is usually busy, hence a bit noisy, but on this occasion I went at 6 PM and it was quiet. If you are going with a large party and intend to bring a lot of wine from home, there is no break on corkage, it's $20 per bottle, $40 per magnum on so on.5/17/2013 12:00:00 AMAlways great Italian foodMenu is great but they will also make you,any Italian dish.

One of the best and most consistent restaraunts in the Gables4/26/2013 12:00:00 AMThe food is exceptional. EitherThe food is exceptional. Either try some of the favorites mentioned in other reviews or pick something you like. You will not be disappointed. I could rate the service either really high or really low, depending on which group you fit in. If you are a regular diner, the waiter not only talks with you he entertains you; and, the general manager comes to your table and fawns over you. If you are not a regular diner, the staff will tolerate you and barely wish you a pleasant journey when you leave. There should not be such a disparity at what otherwise is a 5-star restaurant.4/5/2013 12:00:00 AMwonderful pasta dishes...wonderful pasta dishes... a find... the pear/cheese tortellini was fabulous as was the lobster ravioli... will definitely return4/4/2013 12:00:00 AMExcellent food and service...wineExcellent food and service...wine list too pricey.

The consistently wonderful food, the same friendly waiters, and the willingness to accommodate a diner's every whim bring people back on a regular basis. It's as though you're visiting your Italian grandmother, but my grandmother didn't offer a wonderful chocolate dessert.3/23/2013 12:00:00 AMWas pleasantly surprised atWas pleasantly surprised at the quality of food and servvice..I live in the neighborhood and considered the place like just a trendy
spot for the local luminaries...only minus: the wall decor ..100% courteous kitch !3/22/2013 12:00:00 AMwent to Abbracci while inwent to Abbracci while in Miami for only one night on the recommendation of a friend who lives in Key Biscayne. Possibly the best Italian food we've ever had.....we live in San Diego and have many options, so this is a huge complement! The black and white linguine with Shrimp was fabulous and our waiter, Marlon, could not have been nicer and more attentive. If we had only one night in Miami, we would go right back to Caffe Abbracci!
What a pleasure..3/21/2013 12:00:00 AMStarting w warm greeting,Starting w warm greeting, moving to excellent food and culminating with superb desserts it is truly a great place to relax and dine. A good place to dress up and feel like an adult and not a tourist.3/21/2013 12:00:00 AMVery Good but many options out therVery good but not great Italian Eatery. Solid pasta, fish and meat dishes. Would come here again but would try other places first in the Miami area3/19/2013 12:00:00 AMCaffe Abbracci was suggestedCaffe Abbracci was suggested by the staff at the Sheraton Miami Airport a couple of years ago. Visited it then and on March 17th for my 50th birthday. Love, love this place. Pass along to clients of mine. I work for Expedia CruiseShipCenters and send clients through the port of Miami.3/17/2013 12:00:00 AMWe used to have dinner atWe used to have dinner at Caffe Abbracci frequently but about five years ago we moved to Bal Harbour and the drive to Coral Gables discouraged us from continuing to make dinner reservations at the Caffe. There was a movie which we wanted to see at a theater in Coral Gables and so we decided to have dinner at Caffe Abbracci after the movie. It was a great decision. We all agreed that the food and service were outstanding and we truly enjoyed our evening at the Caffe.3/12/2013 12:00:00 AMExcellent Italian FoodVery good Italian food. We started out with appetizers including calamari, mushrooms and mozzarella with tomato. Service was excellent. For the main course, I had the Branzino special which had a very subtle wine reduction along with leeks and capers. Very tasty and tender fish. My wife had the spinach ravioli which was plentiful and tasty. I also highly recommend the desserts if you still have room.2/24/2013 12:00:00 AMLovely restaurant; excellentLovely restaurant; excellent food; superior service2/20/2013 12:00:00 AM
