Ni.Do. Caffe

Always a fun spot to visit for dinner with delicious food and relaxing ambience especially after a day of playing tennis. They also comfortable outdoor seating. I’ve enjoyed dinner there as well during a typical summer rain storm and we were protected from mother nature.

Good atmosphere, a little expensive, one person, a starter, a main course and a glass of wine $ 52. Buffalo mozzarella delicious, Risotto average. Most suggested calamari was not exist.

This place has that rare combination of excellent food, awesome service and cool ambiance.
Try the options from the mozzarella bar, great appetizer choice.
The osso buco ravioli are so perfect in taste, texture and presentation, I just couldn’t stop eating.
Our server, Nicolas was the best. He brought us a couple of stools so we could place our bags, he was very attentive and helpful with the menu.
I can’t wait to come back to Ni​.Do. Caffe

This used to be my favorite restaurant… their carbonara, their pesto, the service, the environment and the pricing was all just right. However, a couple of months ago, they changed the menu (food, wines and probably the chef too). The menu has been reprinted on nice paper-​looks good but the offering is reduced and the service and staff just isn’t the same. They serve you WAY too fast now, almost like they want you in and out quickly. So disappointed that the little gem is no longer what it was that made this place so great and kept people coming back.

Amazing brunch for Mother’s Day without the hassle of getting rushed! The food was excellent and the service event better. Highly recommend this place.

Delicious! We went for New Years dinner and enjoyed every bite. The ravioli veal ossobucco was flavorful and tender, the portion size was perfect. It truly was delicious. And don’t get me started on the lasagne w bechamel… OMG. It was creamy, saucy, juicy, cheesy and rich deliciousness. My mouth is watering thinking about it. Can’t wait to go back. Good job guys.

We came in at 11:15 for an early lunch. My wife really enjoyed her Linguine with shrimp, and my Grilled Salmon was cooked and seasoned perfectly. The bread was served hot, and service was attentive without being over-​bearing. Slightly over priced, maybe, but the quiet ambience makes it a very sweet, casual place.

Love, love, love this place. The food is always good, great ambiance and wonderful oasis in Miami. It’s incredible charming and takes you to another place. I’ve had many things on the menu and they’ve all been delicious (especially the pastas).

Awfull place. Bad service bad food. Was sick all night after mushroom tagliatelle n pastor iced cream n hard gnocchi. Panna cotta with Nutella disgusting served in a wine glass. Omg
Wanna be Italian. Big NO

Came here for dinner based on the good reviews. Pretty empty, although it was pretty late. I find it weird that even though the place is empty, the waitress had to ask her boss when we requested to push 2 single tables together so we can have more room. Otherwise, the service was fine. Anyway, we ordered the specials that night: fillet mignon and lobster ravioli. I really don’t understand the high ratings. The steak would have been good if only it didn’t have so much fibrous tissues, making it impossible to cut and enjoy small bites. The lobster ravioli was room temperature and barely contain lobster! The appetizer was probably the best dish and the only one we really enjoyed, which was the prosciutto with buttata cheese. Not worth it for us to return, for $ 100 for a party of 2 without wine there are much better options.

Delicious food! We had the prosciutto and mozzarella plate and both of our entrees were really good.

Place is fantastic. Every dish we had was outstanding including the service

Love this place. Fresh bread and homemade pasta. Been here about 4 times and is always very good :)

Went last night with group of 12
Service was a bit slow and an overall lack of follow-​up.
Food was only decent and fairly high priced for the quality.
I have ravioli with is osso Buco stuffed in it. Not served hot but had decent flavor. My daughters gnocchi were not very good. Very dense and chewy, not fluffy like they should be. Tried the lasagna which was very good.
Fresh mozzarella was good but very small portion for sharing. Giant meatball tasted ok with a weird texture.
Company had fun. Nice place. Decent wine choices.

I like this place very much. But I will put it in the words of my daughter: space I like the water. It was so wet and moisture. Really, the food was excellent. The service was superb. We highly recommend it to anyone seeking fine Italian food. My son really enjoyed the cannoli and the lasagna. Thank you!

This isn’t your typical Italian restaurant. This place has excellent service with an excellent waiter named Sasha. The food is fabulous. There is the best octopus salad & lobster. They cook their black linguini with ink from a squid. Mmmm! In conclusion, this place is AWESOME!

Yes, I am a fan of the service and food at this Italian restaurant. Our waiter was super nice and so accommodating and welcoming. Our food was pretty nice too. I started off the night with a Bellini cocktail and it was oh-​so-​deliious! I then moved to my main entrée — the Seafood Risotto — it was awesome. Warning, however, it did have a extremely strong seafood odor that will assault your smell. If you can get beyond that though you will love the flavor and texture of this fine dish. I tried the Bolognese Gnocchi too but this was my first time trying this and I did not care for it. I also tried the cannoli for dessert. It has a strong citrus undertone flavor within the filling but I liked it as it was something different. It was a refreshing twist on the tradition cannoli taste. Overall, yes… this is a great Italian restaurant to try for yourself. Go ahead and I hope you enjoy.

I want to start off this review by first stating that my coworkers and I once LOVED this restaurant. We work across the street and would order often as well as order for our clients. If they weren’t too busy a server would come to our business and drop it off, and we would be sure to tip well for making things convenient for us. Then we hear there are new owners. This brought us to getting charged $ 18 for an arugula salad (salad implying mixed) that consisted of just arugula in a box. But that we let slide, thinking it was just growing pains or a misunderstanding.
******Then today happened. We had a pretty busy day at our business. We asked if it was possible to get delivery across the street which they said they will no longer be doing. Ok fine, no big deal. We order, and I was available to pick up the food. When I get back, my co worker had a quick 15 minutes to eat in between clients and found A GIANT ROACH in her caesar salad. She put it in a paper towel and showed it to me. Completely repulsed I told her not to throw anything away and not to touch any of the other food (2 pumpkin soups and a side of bread) and I would walk back as soon as I got a free chance to inform them and ask for a refund.
About an hour or 2 later I had time to walk back over to NiDo in between clients. I asked calmly and politely to speak to a manager. I was pointed to his direction and walked over to him at the back of the restaurant. I went to him not wanting to make a scene in front of his other customer. I took out the salad box and said we would like a refund. He asked why, I told him to open the box (again not wanting to make a scene). The manager got INCREDIBLY defensive telling me there is «NO WAY» that this was their fault and that he made the salad himself. My co worker put a dirty paper towel with some left over hair extensions from our salon in the box from when she was going to throw it away ai I can understand why it may have initially come off as suspect. But why would I bother coming to him about a roach? He would not stop being hostile and denying any fault. I kept asking, «why do you think we would lie?» «Why would we put a roach in our food?» because really… why would we want to be hungry at work with what little windows we have to eat at our establishment?
This went on with him speaking to the cook and to the other servers essentially blaming us for the ROACH being in the salad and took no responsibility in an unnecessarily aggressive manner. He was incredibly hostile and rude. I was completely confused (having worked in the hospitality/​restaurant industry myself) that I did NOT in the very least get an APOLOGY. Instead I got an incredibly dramatic scene and was treated like a lying P.O.S.
Sure, maybe the a GIANT ROACH somehow opened the plastic lid in the to-​go container to let himself in to die unbeknownst to us. But the fact that I was treated in such a low class manner in what’s suppose to be a high class establishment is incredibly alarming and unprofessional. I am more disgusted in this manager’s manners than I am with the roach in my co workers caesar salad.
Needless to say we got our refund with a HUGE attitude and still no apology.
I strongly advise people avoid this restaurant. If not for the possible pest problem, but just for the blatant lack of common sense on how to treat a customer.

Always fantastic!
Great Mozzarella options. Specials or regular items, each are great. Been 10 or 12 times and has been consistently great.

My first time hitting this little hit spot in Miami. I went with some great friends. Its nice quaint Italian Restaurant with a great selection of Wines.
Ordered the Bufala Campana! My son ordered some really interesting Raviolis. that were very very tasty with am excellent tomato sauce. Everything was really fresh and delicious! I didn’t the know the servers but they were very accommodating and they knew their menu. I will be going back!

Cuando el dueño atiende su propio restaurant puedes estar seguro que sera bien atendido y la comida será especial y riquísima. El Marlin Carpaccio the best apettizer in Ni. Do café.
Best place. Beautiful. Los mesoneros atienden muy bien la mesa, muy atentos! Recomiendo este restauran 100%. Volveré una y otra vez.
Thanks Ni. Do café.

Highly recommend! Delicious food. Friendly staff.
This is what we had for dinner and it was all outstanding:
Tuna tartare
Artichoke soufflé
Stuffed meatball
Lasagna
Tiramisu
Bravo! We will be back!

If you like Italian food — don’t think twice! My best Italian place in Miami so far!
The Paccheri Con Patate, is amazing.

Had a lovely meal at Ni. Do yesterday with my boyfriend and his folks. We sat outside in the shade and even though it was a hot Miami day we weren’t sweating profusely. We all got the steak and eggs which were good, but I can say with conviction that the real star was my boyfriend’s lasagna. Italian is their specialty and they execute it to perfection. Man that was delicious and I had major food envy.
Speaking of Italian, expect slow and relaxed service. Just pretend you’re in Rome or your favorite Italian city and trust that the wait is worth it. Next time I’m in Miami I will have that lasagna and won’t be sharing with anyone!

excelente restaurant de comida italiana, muy buena atencion y servicio, el ambiente de local muy bonito lo recomiendo 100%

On a trip back to Miami to visit some friends I ate here for lunch and it is pretty darn good. You have a casual café type setting and seemingly authentic Italian servers with accent and all. My friends and I ordered the lasanga, gnocci, and fettucine gamberi. The lasagna was pretty good and my friend commented that it wasn’t over cheesed with ricotta like so many other establishments. My dish didn’t have very much sauce to it at all. So when it first came I was a little disappointed, but as I ate more and more of it I liked it a lot. Despite it having so little sauce it had so much flavor to it. They also put in a tiger prawn head on and everything for a beautiful presentation.
My personal favorite was my friend’s gnocci dish. It’s a punch of flavor and the gnocci was made and cooked to perfect soft chewiness. I had to reserve myself from eating most of her dish instead of my own. I forgot to add that we did share an appetizer of prosciutto and burrata. It came with a side of roasted and pickled peppers, eggplant and capers. It was a very tasty accompaniment to the dish. Although with a dish so simple I think this can be a dish skipped beause of the price and the availability of burrata and prosciutto now. I make this dish at home already. The only gripe I had with this dish is that they brought out a reduction of balsamic vinegar straight from the bottle. Now I’m not sure if this was more for advertisement purposes for the balsamic bottler, but it brought down the refinement a bit. It would have been better if they brought it out in a separate dish or just put on however much they pleased and called it a day. But with that said it’s only a small gripe that I’m splitting hairs with. This place is still pretty tasty and this area is definitely on the upswing for gentrification.

Haben uns entschieden, an unserem letzten Abend im
. caffe zu dinnieren. Es war einfach der Hammer! Wir können es nur weiter empfehlen. Der Besitzer is ein echt herzlicher Italiener und redet den ganzen Abend mit seinen Gästen…

We stopped by here one evening after shopping in the area. We waited a while in the parking lot, and still didn’t find a space. After parking across Biscayne Blvd we walked back and were fortunate to snag one of the last available tables.
The atmosphere at Ni​.Do. is cozy and feels authentic. We sat outdoors on the side of the restaurant. The décor seemed to be from Italy with cute window covers that open to a mirror.
For food we ordered:
Vellutata Di Zucca creamy pumpkin, creamy parmesan & rosemary– It was creamy, hearty, tasty, and hot! (the way soup should be!)
Pappardelle Con Salsa Di Porcini home pasta in porcini sauce-​The pasta tasted home made. The porcini mushrooms were outstanding. The flavors in this dish were perfect.
(The following were thoroughly enjoyed by my friends, I did not get to sample):
From the Mozzarella Bar: Bufala Campana
Polpo octopus, arugula, chick peas, kalamata olives, feta cheese & orange section.
Spinaci. Caprino E Pancetta baby spinach, goat cheese, crispy pancetta, peanuts, raspberry vinaigrette.
The atmosphere and food were outstanding. The service seemed rushed and overwhelmed, and were difficult to find when we needed something. The prices are slightly above average, for the service, but the food is of excellent quality.
Overall, it was a good experience, and I would return to dine here again.

La comida nada extraordinario y el servicio dejo mucho que desear. Pedí 3 veces una cerveza. El mesero casi que nos obliga a pedir la comida pero se tardo mas de 15 minutos para tomar el pedido.
Al final en la sobre mesa si estaban apurados, parecía que estorbábamos.

Continuing with my love of the Mimo district here’s another ode to biscayne blvd. Nido rocks in all categories. The interior is chic with nice dim lighting and somehow they’ve created the most inviting patio right on biscayne blvd. the food is spectacular and the pastas are top notch. They have several little unique touches that make this place a must like various infused olive oils, truffle is great mint is surprising, and a wonderful mozzarella bar where you can order a unique Dollop of mozzarella with fresh veggie sides and a vinegary veggie tapenade. The wine list is well thought out and pretty much all Italian. If you are will to go to the $ 100/​bottle range there are some real standouts like the bold Brunello di montalcino and the Amarone.
Service is wonderful. The manager/​owner is attentive and classy, really wants to make sure you are enjoying the meal. They have some interesting salads too like the calamari steak with Farro, where else would you find that?
All in all a super dining experiences in the amazing Mimo district. A little pricey but worth it. Parking is pretty easy to find in small lot and around the block.

A really cute, slightly upscale (but never pretentious) Italian café.
Went for lunch and brunch. At lunch, the octopus salad was absolutely amazing… Big chunks of fresh octopus that clearly had just come off the grill, and cooked perfectly. The fresh bread (baked in the house) that they drop on every table is worth the trip, as well as the accompanying high-​quality olive oil and the basalmic vinegar.
Phenomenal service. And for brunch, easily the best coffee in this area of Miami. (It’s run by Italians! I would expect nothing less!) Oh, and the Eggs Benedict was awesome too.
Don’t forget to check in on Unilocal for a free glass of wine. :-)

Wow! This place was just pure perfection. Came here on a date night. And I’m glad we picked this place. Everything was absolutely perfect. From the moment we arrived we were greeted by whom I think it’s the owner, a very pleasant lady, didn’t get her name but she was very personable. Greeted us with hugs and kisses, very Italian of her ;). It was a perfect weather night so we decided to seat in the patio, not too big but very cozy.
The service was impeccable, from the bus boy, to our waiter. Everybody seemed happy to be there.
We started with a mozzarella and prosciutto salad, I believe it’s made at the restaurant, it was very tasty.
As entrees we chose the Osobuco ravioli which was very rich and perfectly cooked. And also we had the porcini pappardelle, wow! I was in heaven, you can really taste the love they put into preparing your food in every bite.
I think we’ll definitely will make this place our own.
Can’t wait to go back, I’m sure I won’t be disappointed.
Thank you NiDo… see you soon ;)

Great brunch spot in Miami. I found the place on Unilocal and got my fiancé to drive 5 miles out of the way to check it out.
Location: there is parking in front and some street parking. When we arrived, all the spots were taken in front and we were lucky to find parking on the street.
Service: at first the service was a bit slow, but we got to meet the owner and she made our day! She was vibrant and excited and ready to make us happy. The Italian hospitality and charm was shining through. She listened to the types of wines we liked and got us a bottle that knocked our flip flops off!
Food: excellent. We both had eggs Benedict with smoked salmon. The potatoes that came with the meal had just the right amount of salt and baked garlic that complemented it nicely. They staff also worked with us to fit the menu to our food restrictions (gluten free).
Overall, we were happy with the food. The wine took the meal to the next level. We took a picture of the bottle so we can find it again.

Easy to miss restaurant tucked away in a Biscayne Blvd strip mall. Didn’t know it existed until a friend had her birthday brunch here. Friendly servers who are patient and go out of their way for special requests. They joke around with you and willingly take group photos. The food can take a little while, but they do make sure to let you know it will be out soon.
I was too busy with good company to really study the menu. I wanted some greens with fresh seafood, which wasn’t on the menu, so they grilled some octopus and calamari and tossed it on top of arugula and breakfast radishes, with a side of lemon olive oil dressing. It was worth the wait. The octopus steak was meaty, tender and had a great char on it. Everything I wanted it to be, only better. The calamari were equally soft and delicious. It was such a huge portion of seafood that I had half packed up to go.
All the brunch portions looked generous (none of that trendy tapas-​style fufu stuff) and homey. I did get to try the French toast, which was more of a dessert. Doused in cinnamon, which I can never get enough of, topped with fresh fruit, and I am talking REAL fresh fruit: big chunks of mango, banana, apples and strawberries. The home-​made whipped cream didn’t hurt either. Darn it, I wish someone came up with a vegan and zero calorie version of whipped cream already!
Refreshingly unpretentious, authentic Italian food with a side of Motown music and free parking out front. What are you waiting for?

Exelente lo. recomiendo 100% la comida exquisita y la atención espectacular comida Italiana de 1era

Excelente restaurant, la comida riquísima y la atención maravillosa

La comida es muy buena! Pero el servicio es malísimo, puedes esperar que no te traigan lo que pediste porque tomaron la orden mal y luego esperar 30 minutos para que te tomen la orden luego de comer!!! No vale la pena.

Salada césar perfeita (colocamos tomate cereja).
Como prato principal: trouxinhas de pêra com molho 4 queijos. Incrível!!!

Excelente comida, bonito lugar con buena atención, muy rico.
