Rosemary’s Miami Debuts in Wynwood, Blending Italian Tradition with Local Flair

The beloved NYC eatery brings fresh flavors, sustainable ingredients, and a lush urban oasis to Miami.

Rosemary’s Miami, the beloved Italian neighborhood restaurant from New York City is now open in the heart of Wynwood (322 NW 25th Street). The brainchild of Casa Nela hospitality group founder/owner Carlos Suarez, Rosemary’s Miami is a bit of a homecoming for the Cuban-English restaurateur, whose family called Miami home for close to 20 years. “The foundation of the Rosemary’s concept is comfort, a space to step out of your busy life for a moment and enjoy delicious food at affordable prices in a place that evokes the feel of the Italian countryside.”  

To that end, and much like its northern predecessor, Rosemary’s Miami is firmly planting its roots by repurposing a single-story shoe warehouse and adjacent empty lot, transforming them into a lush oasis for al fresco dining, set amidst an urban farm that evokes the aura of a lush, charming Tuscan villa. No doubt, Rosemary’s Miami delivers a thoughtful and elevated dining experience rooted in sustainability and locally sourced ingredients while reminding the wider community that great design and food can be approachable.  

At the helm in Miami is Executive Chef Craig Giunta, whose impressive vitae includes Mother Wolf, Concours Club, and Macchialina. At Rosemary’s, the kitchen is just steps away from its freshest ingredients—literally. The restaurant’s on-site urban garden, created in collaboration with Little River Cooperative, brings Miami’s vibrant flavors to life with homegrown citrus, herbs, vegetables, and flowers.?From fragrant rosemary and fennel to zesty kumquats and key limes, Giunta incorporates garden-grown ingredients into nearly every dish.  

The menu – echoing Rosemary’s deep-rooted connection to the land – showcases a variety of seasonal vegetables, handmade pastas, and fresh seafood. Diners can expect an array of focaccia, along with house favorites such as Eggplant Caponata with roasted vegetables, pine nuts, and agrodolce, and Orecchiette with house-made sausage, broccoli rabe, Fresno chili and Parmigiano. Dishes exclusive to the Miami location include a Crudo of bluefin tuna, seasonal citrus, fennel, coriander, and basil; Linguini with Florida Rock Shrimp, lemon, bomba chilis, and garlic; and Heritage Porchetta with zucchini salad and Calabrian date hot sauce.?For dessert, guests can indulge in the popular Olive Oil Cake, Tiramisu, and Bombolini with Nutella crema. A creative cocktail list offers Italian spritzes, zero-proof libations, and twists on the classics. The wine list features Italian wines, curated to complement the menu. 

Rosemary’s is named after Suarez’s mother and pays tribute to her delicious, made-with-love home-cooked meals and the vegetable garden she tends in Lucca, Italy. It was the glow of these memories that sowed the seeds for what would become Rosemary’s – a restaurant that evokes the spirit of a family dining room warmed by the craft and the affection emanating from the kitchen. Combining a relaxed, botanical design, polished yet hospitality-focused service style, and delicious, reasonably-priced food, Rosemary’s is the type of neighborhood restaurant any neighborhood wants and deserves.  

Designed by NYC interior design firm Dekar Design, who created all seven Casa Nela restaurants, the 7,000 square foot indoor-outdoor space evokes the feeling of an urban farmhouse, combining rustic charm with modern touches. An outdoor garden provides the perfect cultivation area for in-house produce and herbs. 

Rosemary’s is located at 322 NW 25th Street in Miami, Florida. Dinner is served Sunday – Thursday, 5PM – 10PM; Friday & Saturday, 5PM – 11PM.  Lunch, Brunch, and Happy Hour coming soon. For additional information, visit: www.rosemarysnyc.com/location/miami.
