Read MorePiamonte is one of Miami's hidden treasures. It an authentic restaurant from Maracaibo, Venezuela with absolutely no loss of flavor, atmosphere, or culture when it was brought over to Miami. This was my first time here on 11-25-2018. Let's start off with flavor. I am Argentine and all I can say is WOW. The food is cooked with a flavor that rivals that of the most expensive restaurants in the South Florida region. The passion and creativity in the recipes reflect the love and culture that can be found in Maracaibo. The plates are generous enough to fill and please just about any belly. I for one am not a groupie of Arepas, BUT the Arepas Piamonte makes are irresistible. Their chicken soup is a little pricey but very well worth it. It tastes homemade full of vegetables and a massive chunk of chicken. The soup is not acidic, salty, or greasy like most Hispanic restaurants. Its served hot but just the right temperature. We also tried a typical plate "bollitos pelones" which were very good. Next up is service. The service Jesus provided us with was second to none. Very knowledgeable, very attentive, very friendly, great conversation and fantastic time management (hint hint speedy with all his tables without running around).
Third are prices! They are not McDonald's dollar menu cheap but 2 adults with desert soda sharing an app can easily spend under $35 and a small meal is on average $12.
Last but not least is atmosphere/location. The restaurant is LOADED with TVs but not overkill like a Bokampers ;) . The decor is very nice and modern. It is family & friends oriented during the day and trendy oriented at night. They were softly playing typical Maracaibo music "Gaita." The occupational limit is 49 people which means it's a small restaurant but not small enough for significant wait times. The location is on the first floor of a tiny multistory building shopping center. There is plenty of parking close to the entrance and is very close to 826 right next to BJ's and Walmart.
