The ambiance on the outdoor patio is gorgeous with a spacious area filled with plenty of patio seating magical lighting, floral wall decor, heat lamps and huge umbrellas. Magical space. When you walk inside, it’s filled with warm lighting, booths & tables, tall ceilings, open kitchen concept and a nice open area.
We were sat in a beautiful half round booth with plenty of space to seat 4-6 guests easy. Our server was Jason who was very chill, composed, attentive and professional.
EVERYTHING WE ORDERED:
• Espresso Martini Italiano $20
• Giardino Fresco (cucumber cocktail) $18
• Polipo (grilled octopus) $29
• Fagotelli (short rib filled pasta) $36
• Branzino Alla Puttanesca $46
• Roasted Orange Glaze Carrots $12
• Panna Cotta $14
• Lemon Pistachio $14
We originally ordered the Pistachio Crusted Colorado Lamb Chops but they ran out. We opted for the Pappardelle Alla Rosa De Ricotta which sounded delicious with a white truffle cream and lemon pistachio ricotta. Jason eventually came back to the table with a menu to let us know they unfortunately ran out of the Pappardelle as well. So comical at this point. Ended up getting the Fagotelli which was a super fancy pasta with a short rib filling. Crossed our fingers they wouldn’t run out of this too.
Our drinks were beautifully crafted and on point. Espresso Martini foam was incredibly fluffy, drink was smooth. The Giardino Fresco cucumber cocktail was refreshing. The Polipo grilled octopus was so dang good with a nice citrus vinaigrette, loved the shaved fennel texture.
The Fagotelli short rib filled pasta was rich and smooth, one was enough for me. The shaved truffle was a nice touch. Truffle anything is always a good idea. Branzino could have been better. Did not love the confit pomodoro sauce, didn’t compliment the branzino. Wish it had a light citrus sauce instead, the citrus vinaigrette from the grilled octopus dish would have been perfect for the branzino. Fish was also a bit dry, wish it was juicier and not as overcooked.
For dessert, we opted for the Panna Cotta and considered the Lemon Pistachio too. Jason brought out the Panna Cotta with a candle and happy birthday chocolate sign. He also brought us the Lemon Pistachio as a complimentary extra dessert since we were eyeing this anyway. Very nice gesture. Funny enough, I really loved the flavors and textures of the Lemon Pistachio more so than the Panna Cotta. The Panna Cotta was too firm and just meh in comparison.
All in all, we had a lovely dinner experience and it was a wonderful way to celebrate my birthday. Hubby did good. Loved the ambiance, service was wonderful and food & drinks were fabulous! Nice authentic Italian spot in Downtown Miami.
Casa Gianna has a Happy Hour at the bar seating area only on Mon-Thu @ 4-7pm and Fri @ 4-6pm. The HH includes small bites for $9-15 and beer, wine & cocktails for $5-10.
But one thing really shocked me: they don’t accept Apple Pay.
Super inconvenient in 2025 — I literally had to walk back to my car just to grab my wallet. Miami isn’t a third-world country, so I’m genuinely surprised a restaurant of this level doesn’t support contactless payments.
Bartender Michael makes the best sangria in Miami, hands down. Don’t miss their Happy Hour (Monday to Friday, 4–7 PM) they’ve got great specials on meatballs, pizzas, oysters, Moscow mules, and margaritas.
And for my girlies Prosecco for just $9 in the heart of downtown? That’s a total steal!
