Guide Review - Perricone's Marketplace - Italian in Downtown Miami
If you're looking for Italian in downtown Miami, Perricone's Marketplace is where you want to be! Their diverse menu features Italian classics like homemade potato gnocci and cioppino right alongside good thick Italian sandwiches. One downside is that you won't make it to the exit without plunking down your credit card in their irresistible Italian market!
The best thing about Perricone's is the ambiance. You'll find the atmosphere in their outdoor cafe absolutely wonderful. In fact, I'd strongly recommend against lunch at Perricone's if you have someplace to be in the afternoon. It's far too easy to relax with a glass of wine and let your cares slip away! On a serious note, reservations are strongly recommended, especially for the dinner hour, as the restaurant fills quickly.
If you're a Miami resident and you haven't been to Perricone's at least once, you're missing an important part of your Miami cultural experience! If you're visiting town, make this part of your downtown agenda!
