Devita’s Restaurant

Fresh and good a little bit of Italy in your home a little pricey but worth it… try it you won’t be disappointed

If there was a Negative star I would select that star. I used to frequent here with my fiancé fir the mussels. They were delicious! However, looks like with the new management the mussels we drastically scaled down. What a shame! Service was horrible. Staff is snotty and not that friendly. Ugh. Soooo disappointed!!!

Really good, never been disappointed, food is real, they take care of you and you get a lot in a meal.

Food is average. We got gambas al ajillo that was good. But the Lomito was the thinnest piece of meat ai ever had. On a friday night they had only one server for the whole place. I am sorry but I wont be back here.

Oh Devitas, your only failure isn’t even your own. Unfortunately, you changed management and now you’re pretty much terrible. Your food has for the most part stayed good, if you can actually live long enough to taste it. I have gone back four times since your turnover, and each time has been a grave disappointment. You’re service has become a perverse version of the Keystone Cops, and your management is ignorant and rude. Last time I visited (last week) and will be my last visit, you watched me sit down outside with my guests while you sat at your own little table smoking cigarettes and drinking wine. You did nothing to welcome me, did nothing to alert your wait staff (who were inside hanging at your bar doing nothing). I had to walk by you (eye contact made), walk inside and interrupt your wait staff form their personal party. You have done this before. Yet, when your personal friends arrive, you get up to give them a hug, a table, and get them drinks and hang out with them. This is not a random one shot review. Devitas was my favorite local restaurant I frequented three times a month bringing friends and clients. Management and owner (you know who you are) so obviously out of touch with the service industry, it’s obscene. Moreover, you’re intensional disregard for, and selective customer service is appalling.
Someone gave you a nice toy and you’ve broken it. Shame on you, there are plenty of other restaurants in the neighborhood who would love our business.

So sad they have changed completely.. .. For the worst. This used to be our ‘go to’ family place for Italian food. A bottle of wine … a grilled veggie plate …, a couple of orders gnocchi and 2 or 3 large pizzas. But wait … now they have ‘small plates’ and ‘pasta bites’ and individual pizzas ONLY… What Kind Of Family EATS Like that??? Not to mention the fact that the veggie plate has only one small tomato slice on the first plate and NO tomato on the second plate (which we had to order because the portions are half sized now)… truly we are sad but will never be back. Good thing there are a lot of good restaurants in the neighborhood… Did I mention the bug in the napkin … or the fact that they charged us for 3 empanadas we did not receive. .. ?

Ordered a few pies from here one late night while in town and was happy with the service, delivery timing, and pizza!!! Was absolutely delicious!

Great experience at De Vita last Saturday night! I had noticed a few weeks before they were doing some remodeling, and our server confirmed the place was recently purchased by a new owner who is making some changes. We sat outdoors and the ambience was lovely – some string lights lit up the wood-​floored patio, with a matted/​covered pergola over our heads. Service was e cel lent, the menu was varied – and lots of vegetarian options for us. We had an excellent bottle of Malbec, followed by a cheese plate. Then I had a delicious pasta («the de vita» something), while my husband had rigatoni in pink truffle sauce – OMG so good. It was lovely all around, and we will definitely be back! What a gem in the neighborhood!

Food is tasty but service lacks majorly. We arrived around 7:30pm, after waiting for 40 minutes and asking several times they finally brought the appetizer, with the main course. :(we declined it, and staff was rude, asked «how come you don’t want it, is free!»… Hello!! we wanted it as appetizer, who cares if it’s free, it’s too late.
When main course arrived it was brought out plate by plate, except, they missed my daughters pasta, and 10min later they bring it out… wrong dish, we waited for another 10 minutes until the manager/​owner came out and didn’t even stop by our table, so we decided enough was enough and left. Never coming back.
Forgot to mention we were celebrating my daughters bday.

Originally I had given them 4 stars a couple years back.
On a recent visit I was rushed to finish my meal before I even received it.
I can understand, people want to go home and I got there kinda late.
But then they charged my friend for her cocktail ($ 9) when it was supposed to be free for women.
When I got the bill I told the waitress, she came back and said «oh that expires at 9pm’.
Really? It didn’t say that on the sign outside.
It sounded like b.s. and even if it wasn’t, they should have just taken it off this time.
But they didn’t…SIGH.

Loveee their pizza and tilapia, the best. I always order for delivery and we all love to eat their pizza and accompany with some cold beer.

Love, love, Devita’s!!! What a wonderful place to eat and hangout! Great food, service, and surroundings! Fantastic pizza, entrana steak, tilapia, and more!
Empanadas were delicious, as were the salads. Can’t wait to come back!

My wife looked up pasta and this place popped up. Our first time here and at first glance it looked nice with an outside patio with plenty of space plus a stage for live music. We decided to go inside as it’s still hot as crazy in Miami. We got greeted with nice waiters and a friendly smile. We had a caesar for appetizer and it tasted really good. Better than most other places I’ve had one. My wife got the Rigatoni and it tasted great. I had the Lomito dinner. Tasted great but as I haven’t had too much Argentinian food, it was cool get a culture experience at the same time on the presentation. For dessert we had dark chocolate semifreddo, it was amaezing.
Plus they have those draw on the table crayons too that is cute. All in all I liked it and my wife did too.

So here is the story… I absolutely love love love the pizza from this place however the service sucks! Great people very nice but they do not know how and when to serve. I’ve always just ordered pizza «to go» however the other day we had family in town and decided to eat in. Unfortunately there was a big table outside that was getting all the attention from the staff, mind you we got there first but they got there food first and we ordered the same thing! We were very disappointed. Another thing is if you order a pizza over the phone get the persons name. I’ve ordered and when I went to pick it up they said they didn’t get a call and had to wait 30mins which defeated the purpose of ordering ahead (I’m not crazy i called!)

This is a yummy place for take out or delivery. Food arrives fresh. I always have the gnocchi it’s delicious ! However I’m giving it 3 stars bc the delivery takes forever on weekends … I took an hour and 15 min to receive our food …

Una comida increíble. Un lugar espectacular y con muy buena atención. La entraña y las empanadas están muy buenas.

Hello everyone, customer service is crap approximately 45 minutes to give the food on the table, the people they serve has a bad attitude

This little place is enchanting and cozy. We had good service, wine was ½ off (Wednesday), we had the mushroom risotto (made sure they do not cook it with chicken broth so that was a big plus for me. I had the mushroom pasta (yea I obviously love mushrooms), my friend had the churrasco, he utterly enjoyed it too. I would definitely go back.

We sat and waited 51 minutes for a Caprese Salad and a Pesto Pasta… a couple next to us ordered their dinner and got served before us. Their was a larger group that got all the service, it was clear if you don’t look a certain part your business is not welcomed. We left after 51 minutes if waiting without getting our salad or pasta. Totally fake personalities… will never go back.

I just ordered two pies over the phone for delivery and I specifically asked for the thinner crust not the thick. After waiting for 1 hour and 20 min. The pizza came and it was cold and also the thick crust I specifically did not want. I’ll rather take my chances with a big chain pizza place.

Selected the Lomo, eggs, steak and fries. One word amazing, my sisters usual tilapia nothing short of great! My brothers pizza succulent and tasty to the fullest. We enjoyed this place very much if your visiting and in the miami shores area take some time to visit Devita’s!
