Boia De

A tiny Michelin-starred room in Buena Vista turning market-driven Italian into some of Miami's best pasta.

Boia De started as a scrappy wine bar in a Buena Vista strip mall and cooked its way to a Michelin star without ever losing the plot. The room is tiny and the menu moves with the market, but a few things are non-negotiable: the crispy potato peel with stracciatella and caviar, the beef tartare with tonnato, and pasta that regularly gets called the best in Miami. Book ahead, sit close, and let the kitchen lead.
