Ordered their dinner set menu. Was expecting a regular portion of each course but they actually serve huge portions. Food is SUPERB! The mussels (starter) and truffle risotto (main) were very delicious. Risotto was a little bit salty for my taste but I still find it delicious. And their truffle fries and take-me-to-the-beach cocktail are must tries. I had to take away my dessert (mousse was so yummy!) because I was too stuffed to eat more. Lol. Staff are very nice, friendly, attentive, and accommodating. Special thanks to my wonderful servers, Andy and Alexi!

Visually beautiful. At first bite, the pasta is drenched in salt. The chef says the pasta is prepared with salt and any pasta we order will be salty and can’t remove the salt. Basically chef is saying don’t eat the pasta? What the hell? How is pasta already prepared in salt? I understand you boil pasta in salt..but that doesn’t make pasta salty. I don’t appreciate his response. He can just boil me new damn pasta and make my vongole!!!

Italian restaurant with a truly Italian staff. The restaurant is really big, but despite that it is better to make a reservation in advance. The food is very good. However, I found the service a bit unhurried - I waited several tens of minutes for a simple meal, and then waited quite a long time for the plate to be taken away after the meal. The prices are quite high, but that's pretty much everywhere in Miami.

This restaurant we will rate 5 stars all the way around food and service. First let me tell you the food was very great, my husband wanted oysters and seafood the whole time we were here in Miami, and they really gave him what he wanted… he said everything was scrumptious, delicious and on point. Myself I did like the food.. it is a little pricey.. Now I will like to speak on the service, we met Blake and Blake was hands on while we stayed at the hotel, he did great !!!! When it was my husband birthday, Blake and another staff member from the restaurant decorated the bed and breakfast nook for me then delivered it up to the room for me. So I want to say thank you to all the staff and a big thank you to Blake for going out your way with great hospitality.!!!!

So good we visited twice!! Lovely wine, you get bread and olives at the table, pasta is fresh and tastes delicious. Second time I had the veal/truffle ravioli which was insane. The alfredo was also great.

After experiencing a very unpleasant situation with my daughter’s meal the first time visiting Donna Mare, I wrote a review giving one star. The restaurant manager, Elena, reached out to my daughters and I and sincerely apologized for what happened. She refunded us for the first meal and invited us back for a meal at no charge. We took her up on her offer and visited the restaurant this evening. Elena was very attentive to us and made sure we had superb service for our entire meal. She really made us feel like she cared about our experience and she showed she takes her job, customer service, and customer satisfaction seriously. Elena and the servers went above and beyond to make sure we left tonight with a completely different view of the restaurant, the food, and the staff. This, I must say, shows what a good manager Elena is. Thank you to Elena, the chef, and servers. We had a lovely meal this evening.

Came in with our group of 7 on Saturday night. It was easy to make online reservations and our table was ready when we arrived. They had yummy cocktails...I had the Lychee Martini and my husband had the spicy jalisco. Both were delicious and worth going back just for the drink! We had bruschetta and caprese salad for appetizers and the caprese was liked by all! For dinner we tried the Trio Misto, Prosciutto pizza, Pepperoni pizza, Ribeye, Ravioli, and burger. The burger was delicious with perfectly fried truffle fries. The pepperoni pizza was delicious too! We could easily eat here multiple times. Our waiter Chris was efficient and got us everything we asked for.

Great pasta and wine! It was a little weird, felt like every server was trying to explain each detail to us (while I'm holding the wine menu, telling me that's where wines are, explaining how a set menu works, etc). But overall a nice place
