I now understand why this place is so hard to get a reservation for. It's very tiny on the inside but so cute! The service was excellent and everyone was so attentive too! Let's get started on the appetizers, the polenta and beef tartare are a must try and the salad was fresh tasting too. We got 3 different pasta dishes and while I know once for sure was gnocchi, I can't remember what the others were. I do remember they tasted amazing. Favorite was def the gnocchi though. As for dessert. The carrot cake didn't really do it for me, it was a bit dense and not the typical light fluffy cake that I'm used to. As for the other desserts, I am not a tiramisu person at all but the crispy tiramisu has converted me completely. I absolutely loved it. The chocolate budino perfectly executed the salty sweet combo and is a must try! Also pictured is my drink, which tasted great but I also don't know what it's called.

Ahora entendí por qué es tan difícil reservar , es bien pequeño ...así que decidí ir sola walk in y temprano (TABLE for One). Muy educado el host , acepté sentarme en mi lugar favorito, El BAR. Flores frescas , excelente música y un ambiente joven. Elegí mis 3 platos ( Polenta frita , Baked Clams & Pappardelle) no puedo decir cuál fue mejor porque eran deliciosos y acepté el maridaje sugerido por John, champagne - Rose - Tuscany 2022, fue la mejor selección . No pude resistir al postre y ordené un Gelato Sorbet de pasión fruit impresionante ! Digamos que es un tesoro escondido en un Plaza muy discreto , parking disponible . Excelente experiencia gastronómica Chapeauuu Boia Dé!!!!! Regreso pronto , gracias

The food was great yada yada, but I really want to point out some incredible service. My girlfriend ordered a cocktail which she didn't like very much, and about halfway through our meal, one of the staff noticed she hadn't drank much of her drink and asked her what kind of drinks she likes. She then returned with 3 or 4 bottles of dessert wines and gave her tastings of each one, then poured her the one she liked most in place of her drink. Just some really remarkable service. Beef tartar was excellent.

Top tier! Everything was amazing! I met with some friends for a meeting and it was a great experience from the beginning. Olivia and Blake were very on point. They were gracious and made sure to check on us pretty frequently. The vibe was quaint with a lot of character, clean & fresh smelling bathrooms. It's perfect for a happy hour and to unwind. For cocktails, we started with a Sangria and Bergronis. The Sangria was pretty light but very refreshing (I only needed 2). Every dish was so flavorful! We ordered an assortment as recommended: kanpachi crudo, beef tartare, veal sweetbreads, tagliolini Nero, pappardelle alla lepre and lamb ribs fra diavola. 5/5 the kanpachi crudo, beef tartare and lamb ribs were my favorite. We ended with a surprise bday dessert for my bday! Crispy Tiramisu and Chocolate Budino which was so rich. This is definitely a top place for me now and I will definitely return next time I'm on this side of town

FAVORITE RESTAURANT IN MIAMI WOW WOW WOW Boia De deserves allllll the accolades for successfully curating the most delicious menu. We were able to snag 2 seats without a reservation (we walked in on a rainy evening). We were overjoyed to be accommodated as this restaurant has been on our list for at least 2 years. The service was impeccable. Everyone was so down to earth, kind, and attentive. The kitschy wallpaper in the bathroom is super unique and cool. There is a huge free parking lot. The food is simply divine. We started with Letter 23 mocktail (truly the best mocktail I've had in Miami). So well balanced with fruity, zingy, and herby notes. We enjoyed the beef tartare with crispy beef tendon cracker. The crispy artichokes were on a fluffy base. The veal sweetbreads were paired with an incredible carrot cumin broth and charred escarole. The lamb ribs fra diavola were SO FREAKING GOOD. Spicy and tender (falls off the bone). It's paired with an incredible urfa yogurt and cucumbers. The corn fagottini pasta was sooo tender and flavorful with fried speck, parmesan, and chives. Finally, the crispy tiramisu was decadent, light, and heavenly. We cannot wait to be back!!!!

The food was good. Recommend trying the beef tartare as it is such a unique take on the dish with the beef chips that they serve alongside the dish. Also tried the tagliolini nero, which was slightly al dente given it was served cold and not hot. We also got the lamb ribs which were an Indian/Middle Eastern take on a traditional lamb rib, which we were not expecting. Overall, would eat here again if reservations were readily available!

Everything was amazing, the stuffed tortellini dish we got was delicious the only note I would add is it could have been more Al dente the tortellini was a touch over. Tasty food, and I'm really happy we gave this place a try. Worth the wait.

Boia De is truly one of those restaurants that deserves the hype and believe me, very few in Miami do. Although it's difficult to get a reservation, the food makes it 100% worth being glued to your computer 30 days in advance. First off, the service was great. Our waitress was informative and pleasant- she made great recommendations without trying to oversell us. The ambiance was also nice- although it's a small restaurant, it didn't feel overly crowded. To start, we ordered the baked clams, beef tartare and luci's chopped salad. Both the clams and the tartare were yummy, but the salad is truly what blew me away. It seems trivial, but the combination of simple, fresh ingredients and a tangy vinaigrette make it unbelievably delicious. For the main course, we got the saffron tagliatelle alle vongole and pappardelle alla lepre. Both were rich and unique in flavor and fully impressed us. The star of the show was definitely the tiramisu. It's made with crispy Italian cookies rather than soaked lady fingers, giving it a nice crunch between velvety layers of perfectly sweet cream filling. Truly the best tiramisu I've ever had. Overall, Boia De was incredibly impressive! So much so that I already have my next reservation made. If you haven't been yet, run don't walk!

Incredibleeeeeeeee meal! Wow this place deserves all the hype. We were lucky to get a last minute reservation, I was surprised how small it was inside but the food and service were amazing. I loved every single plate. We sat at the bar and experienced fantastic service. Make sure to have a reservation as they do not sit without one and I was also sad to learn they do not do take out one night when I wanted their dessert to go because I liked it that much :(.

The server was so knowledgeable and marked the menu with all of the dairy free items. Service was nice and they coursed out the items well. We sat outside which didn't offer any ambiance but the inside had a cozy eclectic vibe. Every item we had was carefully plated and so flavorful. The standouts were the chicken liver and foie gras pate, tagliolini nero, crispy polenta, lamb ribs, and beef tartar but everything was SO GOOD it's impossible to pick a favorite. This is a place you'll want to return to as the menu changes and you will want to try everything! The drinks are also great and the sangria is perfect- not too sweet. Run, don't walk to Boia De!

Food was good but not outstanding and I don’t think it deserves a Michelin star. It was expensive and the wine list is different but the mark ups are extraordinary-we paid $200 for two bottles of Spanish wine that retails for $30 a bottle. I realize today it’s tough to be in the restaurant business & make money. I would go back but I wish they had reasonably priced wines as options. The $200 we spent in wine was half the bill. It’s tough going to good restaurants these days bc of the expense-but this is a town where everyone eats out so…

Service is always excellent. Only caveat is I wish it is was to get a reservation but the exclusivity adds to the allure.

This restaurant has been on my radar to try for a while and I finally snagged a reservation on Resy to try it. Not bad, it lived up to the hype. All dishes had wonderful flavors and textures. Some were better than others. I wasn't a fan of the eggplant appetizer we ordered or the veal shank, but the ribs and pork cheek were good. Portions are meant to be tapas style. I would recommend three to four dishes for two people. We ordered four heavier dishes and it was too much. The restaurant is teeny tiny with about 4-5 tables and small bar, so that is the reason there's a month long wait for a reservation. A bit of a tight and claustrophobic dining experience. Fantastic service and quick water refills. Restaurant is a bit hidden in a strip mall. Look for the exclamation point on the sign (not the name of the restaurant), it's next to a laundromat. This is a good place to try at least once.

It's a Michelin star restaurant and it's worth the hype. Getting a reservation is tough but it's not impossible. Reservations open at 12pm every day so set an alarm and you'll most likely get one. The dishes are all unique and have so much flavor. The beef tartare and tagliolini nero were my favorites. It's pretty small inside and very intimate. The tiramisu is one of the best i've had, I dream about it to this day. I highly recommend!! 1000/10

My husband and I arrived here at time of opening on a Friday. Parking was free and readily available in the plaza. We were promptly seated and greeted nicely by our waitress. Decor was cozy and quirky. We ordered 6 dishes, and that left us no room for dessert. My husband had a lovely glass of Saint Gervais wine, and I had a Shirley Temple. The Shirley Temple was too sweet for me. Otherwise, the food was delicious and unique. The flavor combinations for each dish reminded me of food I've had from other places, but with a twist. From my top favorite (I liked them all and would order again) and place it reminded me of: -Baked clams - New Orleans -Beef tartare - Mexico -Tagliolini Nero - Italy but like cold noodles from Korea or Japan dipped in cream/cheese sauce -Lamb ribs fra diavola - American bbq -Pappardelle alla lepre - France/Tuscany -Lucis chopped salad - American (good palate cleanser and refreshing!) So, long story short, I'd definitely come here again, and I'd save room for dessert too. It is on the pricier side, but if you're looking for unique food, I think it's worth it. I am also interested in their sister restaurant in the same plaza, Walrus Rodeo. Tips: they say that 5 dishes is about the number of dishes needed to have a fairly full meal for 2 people. If you are hungry, definitely order more as they send out the food spaced out so you can enjoy your meal in a more relaxed fashion. You will need to order all the dishes at once, too. Also, you can come without a reservation, as they usually leave seats available for walk-ins, but you may need to wait. Half the bar seats are for walk-ins. Per the waitress, there is not much difference coming on the weekend vs. the weekday as they are usually busy all the time.

This is a cool spot in Miami and a great restaurant in general but I'm just confused on how this place earned a Michelin star? May be it's relative to Miami peers but compared to a NYC Michelin starred restaurant, this did not meet the mark by a mile (food and service). I would say this restaurant is very typical in what we find in a good restaurant in a major city. But I'll leave it at that - just pointing it out to manage expectations for a Michelin starred place. I thought the dessert were the highlight of the meal - simple dessert done well. Favorite was the crispy tiramisu. Kanpachi crudo - nothing crudo about this. Fish felt like it was cooked/smoked?? Baked clams - thought this was tasty Roasted cauliflower - this was just ok. Nothing special Chicken liver / foie gras - probably my favorite savory dish Taglioni Nero - this was such an odd dish. Flavor profile of a Kani salad. Squid ink pasta in mayo with some chunks of fresh crab meat. Ricotta gnocchi - sausage a bit salty. Truffles could've been shaved thinner. Gnocchi itself was fluffy and yummy Lamb ribs fra divola - this was a good dish. Lamb was juicy and tender Would I come back? Probably not but I don't regret checking out this place

My tastebuds are still tickled when I think of my scrumptious meal at Boia De! Dinner for 2 at the counter was lovely - got to see some of the action live while sitting on some comfy high top chairs. The drinks are vermouth/wine forward and fun spins on classics - I had a gin-less Non-groni which was a lovely spin on a negroni. In fact, I had 2 of these ;) Plate wise, we ordered the baked clams, the beef tartare, the Taglioni nero, the ricotta gnocchi ala nordica, and the lamb ribs fra diavola. Oh em gee flavors were off the charts good. My faves were the beef tartare, the lamb ribs and the gnocchi. The tartare was bright and savory and the chip texture was out of this world! they are chicharrón inspired and made of beef tendon! How innovative, right? The lamb ribs had a great kick to them, which was perfectly complemented by the yogurt sauce. One small note is that the knives were not serrated so though the ribs were tender, the meat was hard to cut if on a plate and you did not want to get messy with your hands :) But the gnocchi. The star of my show. Ricotta based pillows of goodness that were bathed in a rich but not heavy sauce with sausage and TRUFFLE ME CRAZY but the amount of truffle shavings on this dish is outstanding. Also probs my why the dish is almost $50. But worth the splurge in my opinion! The servers were attentive and did a nice job trading off. Casual but informative, they shared their reccs and I appreciated the substitutions and omissions for my partner who does not enjoy onion texture or flavor. Seating is limited, so and you're reso quick when you see one - Boia De is 5 stars all around! I do recommend bringing a jacket as the temp inside runs cool.

If your looking for great dinner, drinks and hospitality, stop by Boia De - you'll want to get there early if you hope to get a table without a reservation, they are packed from the minute they open! We sat at the bar, everyone around us seemed like they were having a wonderful time and it added to the incredible ambiance! Food was outstanding!

First the good news: the food is great, the service very friendly and attentive. They make you feel at home. But don't order the Chicken Liver and Duck Foie Gras pate. It's delicious, but you get maybe a spoon full. Also, do not order any bottle of red wine. It comes chilled, colder than the water they give you.

Expensive and Nothing special!!!! I don’t know why someone gave to this restaurant a Michelin star. you can try once but it’s not worth going back again. Service was friendly. I reserved a table for two and they gave us a seat at the bar... I kindly asked if it was possible to give us the table that I had booked and they told me they had another reservation of 4 people so they gave them the table. Later, after 20 min we switch the table…finally. They were very nice. The food was okay but nothing amazing…and 1 Michelin star for something in the average it’s not worth it. I tried better restaurant
