An absolutely amazing experience!! I would give Miramare 10 stars if I could. The staff makes you feel as though you are at home and the food is simply fantastic. My wife and I recently relocated to Beaufort from CT and were looking for that special date night spot and we’ve found it! Already looking forward to the next visit.

As always the food and atmosphere were incredible. We made a stop in Beaufort on our vacation just so we could go back and dine there. The waitstaff is terrific, the food is outstanding and there is a great atmosphere as well. Very highly recommended! Great to finally have some good Italian food down South!!

First time being there truly amazing from the moment you walk in to the moment you leave. Service was spectacular and the food tremendously enjoyed I could go on and on how wonderful everything really was. Actions speak louder than words try it for yourself and become a regular I know I will be.

Luca and Cory, thank you for bringing a fantastic Italian restaurant to Beaufort! My wife and I have been fortunate to enjoy some of the best Italian restaurants in the US and Europe and have been missing that feeling of a warm and cozy restaurant with classic Italian vibes and taste. It was a pleasure meeting Cory and we can’t wait to come back!!

Leave your phone in the car (you won’t get service in Habersham anyway), and just take in the atmosphere and amazing food n’ wine this amazing restaurant has to offer. One of the owners makes it a point to interact with the guests and make sure they feel at home and part of the family, as Italians should, in the dining area. Will definitely be going again and can’t wait to try something new off the menu.

We've been here a few times and we are always blown away by the service and the food. Jay was our server for our last visit and he did an awesome job! It's our new favorite spot and I promise you won't be disappointed.

Wonderful experience. Arrived thinking we had a reservation which, apparently, we did not. Cory found us a table and did a great job of making us feel so welcome. Our server, Savannah, was a delight as was the young lady who brought our water and bread. The food was delicious. A marvelous way to celebrate Mother s Day a bit early.

This place is awesome! My wife and I aren't ones to finish food when going out, but when we were there for our Anniversary dinner date we sure as hell did. Food is amazing and is orgazmic in our mouths. Thank you for the great hospitality like we're family.

Amazing Italian! Chef Luca is from Italy and knows his food. Front of house manager Cory is such a delight to know. Would recommend this place to anyone! Prices are equivalent of quality.

Miramare is the perfect combination of style, great food, a capable & friendly staff, and an overall comfortable vibe.And while there's no doubt that Chef Luca rules the kitchen, Cory's ability to make all feel welcome is a gift given only to a few.Thanks!

We have recently moved to Beaufort and I was given a gift certificate to Miramare. We invited our new neighbors to join us and we enjoyed a wonderful evening with excellent food. We started with Brochette that was excellent! Salads were excellent and I am not a fan of ranch dressing but tried it and it was delicious. The ravioli was good but I think I would try another entree next time that might be more filling. The halibut I was told was excellent and my husband had chicken parmesan that he said was delicious! We enjoyed great deserts and wine and will definitely return soon! Great job, nice people and the atmosphere reminded me of a European cafe!

My wife and I ate here on February 13 for Valentines dinner. We were warmly welcomed even without having a reservation. The food was fresh and delicious. Our server was prompt and courteous. However he failed to offer us dessert while the tables around us were. We left disappointed.

Best Italian bistro in the Low Country! The food and atmosphere are outstanding. Miramare Italiano has become our weekly date night venue. The bartenders, wait staff, and owners make certain that our dining experience is memorable. Whether it's a celebration or dinner with friends, we are never disappointed.

The food is excellent and the service was great. Their salads are really good and they do serve gluten free pasta upon request. I will be going back for a third time for a girls night out! Enjoy!!

Last night I think I may have had the best dinner. From the minute we walked in we knew it was going to be a great dinner. Our server Sara was top notch, full of energy, attentive and extremely knowledgeable. The food and drinks were authentic and different unlike no other. We have 2 more nights left here in Habersham and will be going back to eat there for the next two nights.

Pricey but very good food and excellent service. First, they brought us the BEST bread and individual dipping plates with olive oil and balsamic. We ate that up! One of us got a specialty martini which they also loved! It seemed expensive@ $14 but it arrived in a shaker bottle so was 2-3 servings. All entrees came with a nice fresh salad. I got the Miramare seafood linguini ($30) which tasted wonderful and was a decent portion! The only thing I didn't like about it was the clams, mussels, shrimp and lobster were ALL still in the shell requiring me to put my hands on my food and get sauce all over my hands. I hate this though most restaurants seem to do it. Who needs/wants all that mess? Needed another (cloth) napkin. One of us got the gnocchi ($20, I think) which she really enjoyed, though it was not a very large portion, though she was full. Another of us got the veal ($30) and it was tasty, a good portion, but VERY overcooked and tough. They choose not to complain so I can't speak to how the restaurant might have handled that. We did not get a dessert! All in all it was a nice meal and we will very likely try them again.

What a lovely hidden gem! My husband and I had the pleasure of finally trying this place a few days ago. With few Italian options in the area I can confidently say that anyone would be pleased with this location and choose it as their top option. Our server was sweet and knowledgeable of the menu, service was prompt and accurate while the food was of course delicious. It was a bit pricey but completely acceptable for the style/atmosphere and quality food.

The atmosphere, the service, the food........everything is PERFECT! We can't say we have a favorite dish because it all tastes so delicious. You have to try Miramare Italiano; you won't be disappointed.

We recently had a lovely evening at Miramare Italiano located in the planned community of Habersham. It is a beautifully decorated restaurant with a European feel to it. The food is authentic and superb. The restaurant owner is personally involved in the restaurant and regularly checks in with guests. We had a lovely evening there. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants to escape to Italy, if only for an evening.

If you have not yet made a reservation to experience all that this Chef has to offer - stop what you’re doing and get in line!Chef Luca Caretti and his partner Cory, have made this this already famous foodie destination in Habersham , glow with Mediterranean magic.First, there is hospitality, greetings sufficient for treasured guests as that is what you are.Next, the menu is sublime, so many choices, you know you’ll be back soon! We had dishes that ranged from the Catch of the Day, a perfectly seasoned swordfish, capers, lemon butter - melted in the mouth. Equally magnificent; Chicken Piccata, Chicken Saltimbocca each served with a delectable salad and a side. You will not leave hungry!Save room for one of Chef Luca’s homemade desserts, mine was A chocolate lava concoction with pears and chantilly cream, oh my.Chef Anthony’s from 3 Sisters, this teams’ Pizza Restaurant - brings his fabulous focaccia - light, hint of salt and lightly oiled - perfection!The staff, all - brilliant and clearly enchanting...Decor, warm inviting and one can well imagine sitting in the original Miramare on the edge of the sea... and thinking.. we are blessed.

If your looking for fresh, wholesome italian in the local Beaufort area, Miramare's is the place. A corner restaurant with great food and staff to mirror it as well. My wife and I will be visiting again very soon and are looking forward to what new flavors await us when we return!

This place is great! I can't say enough about the food. The fresh bread melts in your mouth. My favorite is the lasagna and chicken marsala. The deserts are yummy too! Very authentic!

Corey is THE best host and Luca makes some of the best homestyle Italian cuisine we've ever tasted. They really go out of their way to make you feel welcome. Miranda was such an amazing waitress and the whole staff took great care of us each time we dined. We will definitely be going back the next time we are in SC!

We had dinner with two friends last Sunday night. Upon arrival, we were immediately greeted by the friendly staff and the incredible aroma of Italian food.I ordered the lasagna and it came in an incredible iron serving pot. Dinner included a dinner salad and the lasagna was very flavorful and memorable. The whole dinner worked together beautifully.After dinner, we had some handmade craft drinks at the bar. By the end of the night, we were already planning our next visit. Highly recommended!

I felt like I had left SC and traveled to Italy! Cory, and the wait staff were most attentive and welcoming. The food prepared by Chef Luca was “over the moon” delicious. My favorites were Veal Saltimbocca and Stagionale, This all made for a very special anniversary. My only disappointment was having to leave, which will make my return even more rewarding.

We tried Miramare for the first time since it opened and had a wonderful meal. We took our meal to-go so we didn’t get to experience the wonderful dining room, but the changes look great. Food was wonderful. We had Gnocchi and Chicken Parm, with an appetizer of the eggplant parm. The eggplant was great, should be on the meal menu! Everything was fresh, the blue cheese dressing was home made. Can wait for our return visit. Guys, great job and all the luck with the new place.

My husband and I stumbled on Miramare during their soft opening by pure luck, and had to most incredible experience for our first anniversary! The atmosphere is gorgeous and welcoming plus the owner and servers made us feel like long time friends, not just dinner guests. That just completed the feel, but the absolutely amazing food is unmatched! Each plate was so well engineered and the flavors were all copacetic, like they were made to go together. We absolutely can’t WAIT to be back after the grand opening to try more, and have another bottle of one of their many Italian wines!

Had a fantastic experience. Went on Saturday for my birthday and was astounded by the ambiance but even more so by the incredible coastal Italian food. Would recommend a million times over.
