Miami New Times Insiders

Sardinia Enoteca Ristorante

1801 Purdy Ave

Miami Beach, FL 33139

305-531-2228
Website

Get off to a rousing start by assembling your own personalized antipasti platter from among meats (coppa, bresaola, prosciutto di parma), vegetables (braised fennel, roast beets, assortment of olives with wild fennel flowers), and cheeses (Gorgonzola, Taleggio), presented upon gorgeously garnished wooden boards, ideal for sharing over a quartino or two or three or four of wine. Sardinian chef and co-owner Pietro Vardeu has a bit of Mario Batali in him -- less dependent on strange animal parts but equally reliant on the smoke-imbued majesty brought to bear (and boar) by a roaring wood-fired oven. Do try the roast suckling pig and a simple poussin, all imbued with smoky splendor -- and plenty of fresh herbs. Branzino baked in salt crust, a Venetian recipe, brings pristine, juicy, mildly flavored white fillets -- delicious when kissed with a squeeze of lemon. Roasted whole octopus, braised rabbits and leeks, sweet ravioli drizzled with chestnut honey for dessert – yikes, this food is good. Sardinia Enoteca Ristorante’s 96 seats are packed nightly with locals and no wonder: It is one of the best restaurants in South Beach.
