Zucca

My sister took us to this restaurant, having been there a few times and raving about the delicious food. And she was right! We decided to try the pre-fixed brunch. The appetizers were fantastic, especially the Crudo di Pesce del Giorno—raw fish that was incredibly fresh. The Vitello Tonnato was creamy and flavorful, while the Tagliatelle bolognese was a hearty and satisfying dish. The ravioli di Zucca burro e salvia was also delicious, and the Tagliata di Manzo with French fries was a perfect combination of tender meat and crispy fries. But the real highlight of the meal was the dessert! The desserts were simply divine. The ambiance of the restaurant was elegant, and the staff was incredibly friendly. Our server, Santiago, was particularly helpful in suggesting dishes that we might enjoy. He was spot on! I can’t wait to return to this restaurant. It’s definitely a place that I’ll be coming back to for sure!

Every time I dine at Zucca in Coral Gables, I’m reminded why it’s one of those places I always trust. This visit was exceptional from start to finish. We began with the fried zucchini flowers stuffed with goat cheese, perfectly crisp and finished with truffle honey—simple, elegant, and absolutely delicious. The black beluga lentil salad with roasted baby beets, hazelnuts, and feta was beautifully balanced and full of flavor. For the mains, I ordered the ribeye special, and it was cooked exactly right—tender, flavorful, and memorable. The bucatini cacio e pepe was rich and comforting, while the gnocchi and lasagna truly tasted homemade in the best possible way. Dessert sealed the experience. The cheesecake was excellent, but the chocolate cake roll filled with caramel and pistachio ice cream was my favorite—decadent and perfectly executed. What truly elevated the night was the service. Ernesto took incredible care of us and made the entire experience feel effortless. Every plate arrived promptly, and everything flowed seamlessly. Zucca continues to be a place I genuinely enjoy returning to, and I already look forward to my next visit.
