Is this Guy really the OWNER? – Man what a TERRIBLE RESTAURANT. REAL ITALIAN I dont think so...The owner claims he is authentic and real NY italian, funny. My wife had a simple request to leave out one ingredient ( she is pregnant now), the waiter told use it was not possible to remove it. Then after a few minutes some guy claiming to be the owner comes over and begins to berate my wife and I. Our table of 12 walked out leaving the appetizers and 3 bottles open wine on the table. Funny how this is an italian restaurant and t... read more
TO ALL YOU NAY SAYERS – WHEN YOU ARE PREPARED TO STAND ON YOUR FEET FOR 12 HOURS A DAY AND COOK UP A STORM I.E. A MEAL TO PERFECTION, ONE THAT WOULD MAKE ANY NONA PROUD THEN I THINK YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO DISH. UNTIL THAT TIME, SHUT UP A YOUR FACE!

Have to come for lunch – Most people in Miami know that hands down Macaluso's is the best italian food anywhere, but what they don't know is that they serve lunch too! I've been going to the restaurant for years now, and it's without a doubt my favorite place to go. My new obsession now is their market right next door where they serve lunch. You can get the famous meatballs and salads, but then you can also get pizzas and heros. The pizzas are to die for. They make their own homemade dough and then top it with their famous m... read more
Average food, slow service, obnoxious owner – Waited an hour for our food to arrive and then three of the four dishes were cold --- the ravioli was actually cold in the center! The veal was at room temperature. We waited another 10 minutes, the simple spaghetti and meatballs (they were OK --- but not spectacular) --- and not worth the $25! There is more myth and showmanship in their food -- the meatballs and the tomato sauce was not this incredible thing they talk about -- actually they were disappointing. The food was way o... read more
A total ripoff !!! – As all things in life it's all about cost benefit. The food is $15 a plate red-checkered table cloth trattoria style, but on the "South Beach" rip-off agenda. Plate of pasta and 1 glass of wine = $60 dollars!!! - with a small tip (service was "authentic south beach" as well. i.e unprofessional and just plain poor). Did I say $60 dollars for a plate of AMERICAN ITALIAN spaghetti???? Yes sir-e Bob. By the way - look out also for the pretentious disertation about the chefs "thousand year old family recipees... read more
DEFINITELY COMING BACK FOR MORE!!!!! – We found Macaluso's last night after overhearing someone talking about "the best Italian food they have ever had". We couldn't help but ask where the restaurant they were talking about is. Growing up in my own fathers kitchen eating fresh, homemade Italian food...I am one of the pickiest Italian restaurant critics. I usually cringe when people suggest going out for Italian because I know the food can never measure up to what my own father can concoct. However, my fiance' was hungry and ... read more
wow this place rocks.. me and my coworker went to eat there last week and thanks god.. i think i just found my new dates spot. the food is AMAZING. my friend matias had over 5 meatballs topped with juicy mouthwatering marinara sauce, which apparently they also sell in the market next door during the day time. wow... not a surprise jennifer lopez picture on the wall looks so happy, so as john bon jovi and bunch of other celebrities.. i finished up with vanilla cake cause i personally think desert should be a main course (few ... read more
come for lunch – i go for lunch. a meatball sub, pelligrino, locatelli, they bake their own bread there everymorning. the best garlic bread you will ever have. nobody can make, homemade desserts that will leave your mouth watering
Where everybody knows your name – usually i just eat a cheese pizza here for lunch but for a special treat I'll wait for the restaurant to open and order Grandma Lena's Chopped Meat and Peas If it's a hot day on the beach maybe grilled Tuna over spinach this is one of those places that if you know about it you come back week after week. there is always something new to try and if all else fails just have a meatball and salad
