Wow this place is a hidden gem. Everything was spectacular, Yvonne our server made some house specialty suggestions and the food was amazing. Service was on point, and the manager Elder was very nice and ensured the first impression was perfect. Highly recommend this place. The Caccio Pepe and Vongole were the best ever. And the dessert menu has everything!!!!

A wonderful Italian restaurant experience from start to finish. The red wine was excellent—rich, smooth, and perfectly paired with the food. Every dish was full of authentic flavor and clearly made with care. The service was attentive, friendly, and made us feel truly welcome. Definitely a place to come back to.

I had an amazing experience at Certo. Every single dish was absolutely delicious: fresh, beautifully prepared, and full of authentic flavor. From the Involtini di Melanzane to the Branzino allo Zafferano and the Carpaccio di Polipo, everything was exceptional. And the Zabaione ai Frutti di Bosco was honestly one of the best I’ve ever tried , light, creamy, and unforgettable.
The service was outstanding. Our server, Jhonattan, was attentive and warm, and the manager was excellent . Very caring, present, and genuinely invested in making sure guests have a wonderful experience. Their hospitality really elevated the meal.
The ambiance is cozy, the food is top-tier, and the attention to detail is evident in every part of the experience. Highly recommended!

I really wanted to give this place a better review mainly because I was taken there by a friend that was raving about it. However, I left extremely disappointed and unimpressed. I thought the food had nothing to do with “authentic” Italian cuisine. I have eaten in much worse places in my life, so this one does not reach the bottom of that barrel either, but for example: I ordered the Branzino fish dish. It was overcooked and super salty! My friend ordered the pasta with Lobster 🦞 and it was awful. The Lobster tasted very strange and was so chewy, and her pasta sauce was simply terrible. Our other friend ordered the Ossobucco an she was happy with it, so that’s that. The tables don’t have a tablecloth and the plates, silverware and glasses were stuck to the table! That was the strangest thing ever! Who knows what that’s all about. Finally, I didn’t see, hear or met one single Italian person working in that restaurant. They all seemed South or Central American, so not sure what they mean by “authentic” Italian? To wrap this up, my friend who ordered the pasta with Lobster spent the whole night in the bathroom with a huge stomach ache… Nope! I didn’t like it. Not going back.

Honestly I was not super thrilled with any of the food in Miami at all but this place was great! Out of the two weeks I spent there this was probably the only restaurant I went to where the food was actually good! The waiter we had was very friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. I got the bolognese fettuccine and it was very tasty. The carbonara was also delicious. The atmosphere was also cute and seemed perfect for a date. If I am ever in Miami again I would definitely come back here and get some pasta!

Thank you to all who helped and a special thanks to Francisco our waiter. The food as always so good and authentic. Here are some pictures. I encourage everyone to plan your dinner and celebrate in style at Certo’s Restaurant in West Miami.

Certo is a favorite neighborhood restaurant in Miami for our family. Yvonne, one of our regular servers, is amazing. The whole staff is super welcoming as soon as you walk in. We’ve had very large to small groups and always had great service. The interior is well maintained and has a great atmosphere. The menu has a mix of two styles of pizzas, salads, pastas, and traditional Italian dishes. I have eaten from all aspects of the menu over the course of several years and have never had a bad plate. A few favorites are their NY style meat lover and veggie pizzas as well as their salmon plate. I highly recommend to anyone seeking pizzas or Italian food in West Miami!

Our favorite Italian spot in this part of Miami. Pastas and sauces are always very well made, their fixed price menu for lunch is a very good value (includes appetizer, entree and dessert), and 25% applies to items in the regular menu. Our server today was Gonzalo and he was friendly, efficient and made us feel right at home.

This place is absolutely fantastic! Great food, awesome service, the atmosphere was pretty chill. We got the Vegetarian pizza, the Classic NY style pizza, and the Margarita pizza. This is the best pizza I have ever had. Waiters were super nice and friendly. We also saw one of the waiters make pasta INSIDE a cheese wheel which was awesome! Definitely coming back!!

Dining at Certo Italian Restaurant was an absolute delight from start to finish. The food was nothing short of extraordinary each dish brought the true flavors of Italy to the table. From the perfectly al dente pasta to the rich, flavorful sauces and fresh ingredients, it genuinely felt like dining in the heart of Italy.
The service was equally outstanding. Our waiter, Francisco, went above and beyond to ensure we had a wonderful experience. Attentive, warm, and knowledgeable, he added a personal touch that made our evening even more special.
If you’re looking for authentic Italian cuisine paired with exceptional service on West Miami, Certo is the place to go. We can’t wait to return!

First time visiting this restaurant to celebrate our friend’s birthday. We all had a great time. Yvonne was our waiter and she was AMAZING! Very fun interaction with all of us and gave us great recommendations. We all enjoyed the appetizers, our main dishes, and the desserts. Delicious. Will come again no doubt.

Certo is truly a hidden gem for Italian cuisine! From the moment you step in, the warm and attentive service makes you feel right at home. The staff is knowledgeable, friendly, and always ready to recommend the best dishes.
The food? Absolutely incredible. Every dish is bursting with authentic flavors, and the quality of the ingredients shines through. Their ossobuco, the star of the menu, is nothing short of perfection—tender, flavorful, and beautifully presented. It’s a must-try!
To top it all off, the prices are very reasonable, making it an excellent choice for a special dinner or a casual meal. Certo is the kind of place you’ll keep coming back to, and I can’t recommend it enough!

We recently celebrated my daughter's 30th birthday at this venue, and it was absolutely perfect. The ambiance was delightful, and the setting was just right for our special occasion. The food was delicious, exceeding our expectations with every bite. I highly recommend this location for anyone planning a special event. We couldn't have asked for a better experience!

We had a wonderful experience. Our server, Gonzalo, could not have been more attentive. The entire staff was friendly and welcoming. Every dish was delicious, but I highly recommend the lamb shank with spinach risotto. The meat fell off the bone and the risotto was creamy and perfect. This dish was amazing, one of the best I ever had. Everything we had was wonderful. We were not disappointed and will definitely be back.
