Nino on designing the space that became Caffe Abbracci, “I loved the arched ceiling at Caffe Baci’s and I wanted the same barrel vault with the same effect at Caffe Abbracci. The bar was nice and comfortable. It was my stolen bread. It was a place to socialize and enjoy a drink 🥃 before dinner. My concept of the restaurant was a home 🏠 with three rooms. Caffè Abbracci was designed to vary from room to room, as a house would, but to share the same design theme, with all the materials understated but expensive looking. Dark green marble repeats from room to room. The bar is a sleek space of different wood, marble, and mirrors. This was the first restaurant with a bar in Coral Gables. The restrooms had to be the best in town; this was very important!!!” -From Nino Pernetti’s Caffe Abbracci Cookbook,📕 His Life Story and Travels around the World.

What people say
Italian restaurants are known for their warm and welcoming ambiance, exquisite service, and mouth-watering cuisine. Caffe Abbracci on Aragon Avenue in Coral Gables is a perfect example of an Italian restaurant that embodies all these qualities. The name "Abbracci" means "hugs" in Italian, and the restaurant's atmosphere and service make customers feel like they are being embraced with affection.
One of the standout dishes at Caffe Abbracci is their Center Cut Filet Mignon, which is dry-aged for 10 oz. and served au jus. This dish is a carnivore's dream come true! But it's not just about the meat - Caffe Abbracci also offers classic Italian comfort food like Old School Bolognese and Classic Lasagna Bolognese that will transport you to Nonna's kitchen.
And let's not forget about dessert! Tiramisu is a staple on every Italian restaurant menu, but Caffe Abbracci takes it to another level with their lovingly crafted version made from layers of ladyfingers soaked in espresso with whipped cream and mascarpone cheese.
But what really sets Caffe Abbracci apart is their dedication to honoring the legacy of founder Nino Pernetti. On the first anniversary of his passing, guests were offered a complimentary glass of Prosecco to toast his remarkable life. It's clear that this restaurant values its patrons as much as its delicious food.
Overall, if you're looking for an authentic Italian dining experience with exceptional service and cuisine, look no further than Caffe Abbracci in Coral Gables.
