Dining Guide: La Palma Ristorante & Bar

During the Miami holiday season, when the weather outside is less “frightful” and dining al fresco is all the more “delightful,” the historical La Palma Ristorante & Bar is offering wine drinkers “no corkage fee Thursdays” (for parties of six and under with a two bottle limit) to remind South Floridians that the trademark restaurant, known for it’s authentic Northern Italian cuisine, peaceful atmosphere and affordable prices, is here to stay.

A Coral Gables fixture for nearly 17 years, La Palma serves fine Northern Italian cuisine from prime meat and seafood to homemade pasta, along with its signature Sunday brunch and a variety of lunch options. The majestic restaurant offers an elegant courtyard with seating for up to 300 people, so for those not sure what to do for the “ball drop” this year, La Palma is having an extravagant New Years Eve soiree that includes a four-course dinner, live music and midnight champagne toast all for $99. Coral Gables business professionals will appreciate the very affordable yet over the top lunch buffet (under $13) with a variety of salads and pastas, cheeses and meats, seafood dishes and a carving station.
