Piola - Miami Beach

This place has amazing and authentic Italian food and beyond excellent service. The rating should be 5.0 without a doubt. The servers were so attentive, the atmosphere is great. The meatballs and the pizza blew my mind.

This is by far the best place to eat in collins avenue. Food here is delicious and service is awesome. I?ve been in all the expensive restaurants, and I still prefer to comeback here and eat some good Italian food at a great price in a great outdoor seating. The live music is very broad and diverse. I was seated in 10 minutes. Service is spot on. Would def recommend it.

My hotel was conveniently located near this restaurant, so one late night I decided to give it a try. They have both indoor and outdoor dining options, and I chose to sit outside, which was quite pleasant. I ordered the spaghetti and a margherita pizza, both of which were served in large portions and were satisfying. The food was good, although nothing particularly outstanding or exceptional. It was just right for curbing my late-night hunger. However, the customer service left much to be desired. My waiter appeared agitated and annoyed, giving off an unpleasant attitude that made the experience less enjoyable. Overall, I would recommend this place if you are in the area and in need of a meal, but don't expect anything spectacular.

The pepperoni pizza was excellent with a very thin and crispy crust. The Gnocchi 4 Cheese was tasty, with a smooth sauce that wasn't too salty, but could use a bit more flavor in the 4 Cheese sauce. The pistachio ice cream with cracker was amazing! The ice cream was creamy and delicious.

We were staying at the Confidante across the street and were in search of a more affordable dining option. We arrived at 6pm and were the first to be seated outside. We were welcomed by a friendly Colombian waitress who mentioned that her friend's band would be performing that evening. The band was fantastic! The food was also delicious - we enjoyed two tasty pizzas and a Caesar salad. The entire night was wonderful, with the added bonus of live music from the band.
