• Italian • Downtown Miami

Booked 22 times today

Casadonna is a Coastal Italian-inspired waterfront restaurant developed in partnership between Groot Hospitality and Tao Group Hospitality. It is housed in the same Mediterranean revival building as Miami’s historic Women’s Club, located in the city’s burgeoning Edgewater neighborhood. In fact, the name “Casadonna” is derived from the setting—it is a fusion of Italian words translating to “house of the woman.”Riviera-style Italian cooking serves as the heart of Casadonna’s cuisine. The menu features the freshest and finest local and imported products, with signature handcrafted dishes. Plates are based around traditional recipes found in the coastal towns of Naples, Taormina, Bari, Positano and Gaeta, and each is presented in a contemporary fashion. Bespoke cocktails and an extensive wine list will complement this approach.

Without doubt, the Best Peking Duck in Miami! We had a cocktail before dinner at the bar, and the bar tender Raül was very professional and very polite. For dinner we had the two kinds of Dim sum, The Whole Pecking Duck, the Beef and truffle fried rice, and the beef tenderloin. It was four of us and it more than enough as we shared. The service of our waiter Ernesto, was impeccable! I highly recommend Hakkasan! We plan to be back!
