Rosinella: 28 Years of Authentic Italian Cuisine on Lincoln Road

For more than 28 years, Rosinella has been serving authentic Italian cuisine to locals and tourists alike on Miami Beach's historic Lincoln Road.

The story of Rosinella begins with Mamma Rosinella, born and raised on a farm in southern Italy. After marrying Vito Antonio, she moved to Rome where they raised four sons and one daughter. In 1993, Mamma followed her sons Paolo and Tonino to South Miami Beach as they opened their first restaurant, Sport Café. The family's culinary legacy continued to grow with Rosinella Lincoln Road in 1997, followed by Rosinella Downtown Miami in 1998, alongside the arrival of two more sons, Roberto and Luciano.

Today, Rosinella proudly carries on Mamma's tradition of authentic Italian cooking. Every dish is prepared fresh to order using natural ingredients—no preservatives, flavorings, or additives. The restaurant uses organic tomato sauce, makes fresh pasta in-house daily, and imports dry pasta directly from Italy.

Located on the pedestrian-only Lincoln Road, Rosinella sits among numerous stores, restaurants, art galleries, outdoor art installations, and tropical hi landscaping. The restaurant is just three blocks from the beach, two blocks from the Miami Beach Convention Center and the Fillmore Theater, and one block from the New World Symphony. Ample, inexpensive parking is available nearby.

After nearly three decades of service, Rosinella continues to honor Mamma Rosinella's vision: sharing the authentic flavors of southern Italy with the Miami Beach community.
