What a spectacular lunch our family had at Palat on Saturday! Of course, every time we dine at Palat we leave with a smile on our face and usually say the words " what an incredible meal". Our server, Ernesto was so attentive and friendly. He was knowledgeable not only about the menu but also the wine. We enjoyed a few bottles of wine (who's counting) with the additional assistance of Giorgio, the sommelier. He was also a pleasure to have at our table and made sure our glasses remained full. The grilled calamari, beef carpaccio, and grilled octopus were outstanding. We then moved on to their version of "Cacio e Pepe" which we all shared and fought over who would have the last bite with the shaved truffle! We finished with the ribeye and skirt steak which were cooked to perfection! We did not want the meal to end. Not only was everything we tasted exceptional but the entire staff at Palat is top notch. Can't wait for our next opportunity to return!!

We had such a fantastic dinner celebrating a friend’s birthday. From the moment we walked in, the staff was attentive and friendly. The food was some of the best, maybe the very best, we have had in Miami. They have an extensive wine list, too. We cannot wait to go back! Every single thing we ate, and every person we met, made our experience perfect!!

This is my 4th time at Palat and it’s always a great dining experience. My only gripe is that every time, I go to order the cheaper bottle of wine and somehow they’re always out of it but they magically happen to always have the $30 more expensive option. Kind of annoying and takes a away from the great food and service.

I didn’t know about the restaurant’s outdoor smoking policy, and a waiter approached me in a rude way and told me to leave because I was smoking. I told him I didn’t know I couldn’t smoke outdoors, and that I could easily step outside to finish my cigarette. However, they way he came to the table and asked me to literally leave was very rude and unprofessional and made all the guests at the table feel very uncomfortable. On top of that, when the check arrived, I asked our waiter to split the total in two, and he charged me two thirds of the check. I was treated poorly and ended up paying more than I intended to. I will not come back to this place!

When my family and I think about celebrations, Palat is always our first option and it never disappoints. The ambiance is always welcoming and charming. The service is unmatched. The staff truly cares about your experience. Everything on their menus are so tasty, you cannot restraint yourself from having all of the dishes. Exciting food with high quality presentation, service and inventiveness. I cannot recommend this place enough! Such a warm and welcoming environment!

No words to describe how delicious this place is, and how outstanding the service is. I couldn’t stop “mmmm”ing after every single bite of everything we ate. The food is fresh and the pasta is made in house. Cacio e Pepe (parmesan wheel), Ossobuco Pappardelle, and Chocolate Temptation for dessert! Can’t wait to come back!

Made the reservation for our marriage anniversary but it was not acknowledged at all. We weren't greeted very nicely and the food was brought incorrectly to my husband, who asked for no cheese or bacon on his salad, but it came with those things. Instead of making him a brand new salad like my husband asked, the server told him he just removed them himself. For the price you pay, it really isn't worth it. The bread brought to the table was cold and stale, the chicken on the caesar salad lacked seasoning and the grilled octopus was very overcooked. The cacio e pepe was good but not good enough to come back or recommend this restaurant to others. Compared to other restaurants in Miami, I wouldn't waste your night on this one.

Second time here - hidden gem - quiet neighborhood just north of the Design District - patio is lovely place for dinner - nicely but simply decorated - tables well spaced - quality ingredients handled by expert kitchen - varied menu of Italian specials - cacio e pepe pasta with black truffles saves a trip to Rome - Luis and his colleagues provided friendly, helpful and attentive service adding to the enjoyable evening - we will be back!

I have been wanting to try this restaurant and it was my first time dining here. My experience overall wasn’t great. We arrived on time for our reservation and we actually had to wait because the table was NOT ready. We were told that the bar was open (which didn’t look inviting at all) then we were told that we could wait outside for a few minutes and would be called when the table was ready. All of this was already a poor sign. We waited for about 5 minutes and as I was getting ready to book a table elsewhere, we were escorted from the outside patio to our table in the far right corner. The tables here were really small and it was a struggle to ensure the dishes were securely on the table. The dishes looked great. However, getting into the dishes…many of them were over-cooked. We had the scallop appetizer that was a special and I was not impressed. It was over cooked. I then requested the squid ink risotto special. That also looked great however, I could not help but notice the EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF OIL at the bottom of the meal itself. The wait staff were great, but I have to be honest….I’m not sure if I will return. You only get one chance to make a great first impression.
