Osteria del Teatro
1443 Washington Avenue
Miami Beach, FL 33139
305.538.7850
How to eat at Osteria:
1.) Make a reservation. There are only thirty seats and the regular customers are
among Miami’s big-name elite.
2.) Don’t try to avoid parking your car with the
valet. Street parking is hard to come by, plus this ‘hood tends to be a little
sketchy.
3.) Cohort with the maitre d’ as if you know him; you’ll be pleased to
find that he just might go along with it as if he’s known you forever.
4.) Observe
the exquisite silver bowl of tiramesu on the dessert cart on the way to your table.
5.)
Ignore the menu; the waiter will rattle off about a dozen specials; that's your menu.
5a.)
Obey your waiter when he tells you what to order.
6.) Notice the mayor seated at the next
table. (Hey, and isn’t that Sylvester Stallone behind the Mayor?)
7.) Try not to
stare.
8.) Ooh and aah over your meal.
9.) Tiramesu.
10.) Reserve your
favorite table for next Saturday with the maitre d’ on your way out.

Review: We
discovered this restaurant back in the early 90's, before SOBE was
SOBE. It was fantastic then and continues to shine now.
Unpretentious-always inviting. Everything that you said about the staff
and food holds true-a real find in a town that continues to glam it up.
Wonderful! |

Review: While
the decor is so-so, the staff is on the ball. There are dizzying
choices of preparation for each dish so take your time deciding. The
food when it comes is yummy. A comparable experience in New York and
elsewhere would be ten dollars less per entree but, hey, this is Sobe.
We thought it was worth a visit. |

Review: Simply
the BEST in South Beach. We go there every other Saturday. You are
treated like family from arrival to departure. The entire staff is
concern with with your well being while in there, they make sure that
what every you want they can provide. The food is delicious and it comes
in large portions, start with the Asparagus with the Gorgonzola Fondue
cheese sauce, the fettucini carbonara is my favorite entre, the warm
apple tart or the tiramisu is my preference for dessert. Enjoy |

Review: Where
do I start? As soon as we sat down, we were asked if we would like wine
about 4 times after insisting that we did not want any. It all went
downhill from there. I don't usually have appetizers, and again, was
asked about 4 times. I had an entree of pasta with clammeat and vodka
sauce, it was horrendous, I was about to be sick and had to leave. We
were given attitude when I asked how much the lobster pasta was that the
waiter had rambled as part of the 'special menu'. Most of the people
here are not famous, rather, they are snobby and call out "waiter" as
though they have a crown on their head. I could not wait to get out of
this place. Lastly, the dessert at the door is not hygienic, you don't
leave uncovered dessert at the entrance of a restaurant, hence, my
reason for not even trying to wash down my horrid pasta with something
sweet. The only good part? The host took my pasta off the bill after
checking with us on our service and if we were satisfied. !
I was honest and told him I wasn't
impressed and my plate was inedible. He wasn't as rude as the waiter.
When the waiter found out I had complained, he said to my boyfriend "she
didn't like the pasta?" in an unimpressed tone, as though I wasn't
sitting right there. He looked insulted, well, at least he wasn't
hovering over the toilet bowl as I was later.
If you are planning to go here, do
yourself a favor and don't ask for a price, because you will pay a heavy
one. |
