Table was ready when we arrived, but it was set for three, so they asked if we needed the third spot, although I had reserved for two only. Waiter explained the specials and was polite and pleasant. We ordered from the Miami Spice menu. The food was very good and the sauces were just right; not too strong but not too weak in flavor. Pasta was freshly made. Overall a good experience. The place is kind of small and we were seated on the way to the restrooms, so people would walk by and almost bump into our table. One negative is that they add an 18% tip to the bill automatically, something that I prefer to do myself depending on the service provided. That usually makes you feel as if you are in a tourist trap, so I would recommend to the owner to allow guests to add the tip of their choice.

Everything was great. Even though our server was very good, he and the bus boys tended to hover over the table very closely to the point that it was uncomfortable. We were there early on a Tuesday and it wasn’t crowed, so I don’t think turnover was an issue.

Great experience. Food was awesome. Pleasantly impressed

Excelent everything was very good the excellent service the amazing food and the very cozy place

The food was sub par at best. Not good at all. Risotto was like sparkle. Pasta way past al dente and cold. Another bad attempt at Italian food in Miami. Way over priced

We love the decor, service and the food.

When we feel like eating well this is our go to in the Gables.

Exquisite food and great service in a beautiful and welcoming environment.

Zucca was recommended to me by several friends. The restaurant is just lovely, the service very good and the food very good as well. I shall return and tell others.

We were very disappointed in the food. It was beautifully presented but the grain salad was bland, the fish over salty and the coffee cold. Our waiter tried to make things better but by mid meal we were ready to leave. It's a shame because we had always loved the setting under a different name and were hoping this would be great too.

Its the best culinary experience of Italy and the world! Outstanding mixologist with fantastic selection. Excellent wine list! Seriously......worth every penny!!!!

Excellent food and service

I've eaten dinner here before and foods and service was excellent.
My Hudson's and i decoded to try lunch on Miami Spice. Four apoys we both had the swordfish which was prepared like a cevice but with thinly sliced fish. It was very fresh and trasted good.
For entree i had the grilled snapper over potato puree affix was very good. My husband's lamb chops were sad. They were thickly sliced asks breaded. Overt cooked and dry. Like jerky, awful.
The desserts ere very good, homemade gelato and a small berry tart.
JP was our server and he was great and attentive. Drinks were good as well. Will stock to regular nearby it all for recommend items of spice menu next time.

We had a great table, an excellent waiter, service was excellent , food was divine!

A Flawless experience from beginning to end. The food was spectacular, service was phenomenal, and the ambiance was perfect. Our server, Gretel, was fantastic and gave perfect meal recommendations. Perfect date night... couldn’t have asked for more.

This is our 4th visit to dine at Zucca. Always an amazing experience. Fresh food, served with beautiful presentation and the most delicious, fresh ingredients. Prepared exactly as requested. Restaurant prepared to deal with allergy issues and works kindly to accommodate needs. Excellent service. Will return again with friends!

The octopus was delicious. The round breaded rice ground beef appetizer very good.The pasta with pulled duck succulent and tasty. A glass of 2013 Brunello to accompany a very good meal. We both shared one serving of every dish.. A bit too expensive for 2 having shared the main course...
The apple strudel with vanilla ice cream, a wonderful and perfect dessert.A great ambiance and very beautiful decoration.
Grethel is a wonderful and attentive waitress.

.

Everything was so good,,, we started with stuffed zucchini blossoms, then a chucutterie OMG soooo good . AND service with a SMILE .

The best gelato, cappuccino, sea bass preparation, filet mignon, and bucatini in the US... in my opinion.

Great Food, nice ambience, impeccable service. Zucca is consistently good.

Overall great place, authentic Italian dishes friendly and attentive staff and great service. Grazie Luccio

Normally good. The service was terrible tonight and not recognized that there was a. Issue

As always, the food is great!
It's a pity they have such bad service, they could be more professional...

A lovely family birthday dinner at sunset. Service was excellent and food very good.

Was wonderful!

We order 2 lamb chops milanesi for $49 each that were dry & with no flavor.
I think is over priced and food at best is average.

Have been there before but Saturday night was disappointing. the service was very slow and non attentive. One of appetizers was not brought until we reminded the server. We had to chase down the server to get check

My husband & I enjoyed a nice dinner at this place. The restaurant is pretty, ambiance is cozy. The service was great. Alejandro & Gregory took great care of us. The food was just ok. We had the stuffed pumpkin flowers (one of my all time favorite appetizers to enjoy), burrata, polenta & vitelo tonato. The pumpkin flowers were stuffed with ricotta & lemon zest, but the zest was overpowering & tasted bitter. The burrata did not seem fresh; it tingled on the sides of your tongue as if it was starting to ferment. The branzino & creme brûlée were divine. Overall, a nice evening, but pricey for the quality of food we enjoyed. Don’t think we’ll be back very soon.

Great place!

Great food and special atención from the owners! All fresh and tasty.
We love the ambiance!

The gnocchi was bland. Asked for salt 3 times before it was brought. They advertised online that they had Gables Restaurant Week but they didn’t. Probably won’t return.

Excellent restaurant to celebrate our 26th wedding anniversary. Excellent selection for Coral Gables Restaurant Week. We ordered from the regular menu too. We will return soon. Service was excellent. They took great care of us.

This was my second time eating at Zucca, and the food did not disappoint. Simone is, to me, the best Italian chef in Miami. My only complain was the delay in getting us to our table. We had a 1:30 PM reservation and did not sit down until past 2 PM. That said, the waiting staff was attentive and very friendly. As a tip, don't miss the Ossobuco Milanese. It is worth the price!

Friendly staff, exquisite food and ambiance

Good menu for Gables Restaurant week. Regular menu is pricey.

Family Visit

Our Sunday Brunch at Zucca was delicious. I lovely restaurant with exceptionally fresh food choices. With bottomless Mimosas and Bellinis, worth the $. A glass or bottle of wine was extra but that's OK with me. We left very full as we wanted to try everything.

It's gone down tremendously from their first brunch dates. Variety of food, overall value, service very sketchy. It might not be there much longer. At least not brunch. Even customers are 'downgraded; from before.

Awesome food & service

WOW! An amazing experience at Zucca! One of the top meals I’ve ever had! From the hostess, to the bartenders, to the servers - we were always given fabulous service. And then the food. The bread and zucchini flowers (we had the ricotta and lemon zest option). Such a great start! We shared the branzino for two that is prepared with a salt crust. Best I’ve ever had and I order this often wherever I go. The flavor was fantastic (no sauce needed)and it was so fresh and moist - done to perfection!! Not to mention the vegetables that come with the dish. Order the tiramisu to end your magical meal! It is well worth the price. Zucca is always packed so reserve well in advance.

Great ambience, service and food! Highly Recommended !
