Miami’s first pasta bar will soon open in the Wynwood neighborhood. Otto & Pepe specializes in pasta and natty wine, with a menu crafted by Italian chef Viviana Varese, renowned for her Michelin-starred restaurants in Milan and other parts of Italy.
Featuring an intimate wine enoteca, 28-person pasta bar and an enchanting garden, Otto & Pepe draws inspiration from European cuisine and Miami’s vibrant energy. The restaurant is brought to life by two hand-drawn characters: Otto is a playful pasta, while Pepe is a mischievous wine bottle.

Wine selections (available for takeout or dine-in) is curated by Miami local and wine veteran Karina Iglesias, offering a comprehensive list of wines with an emphasis on Italy’s diverse regions, complemented by choices from France and Spain.
The main room bridges the three spaces and presents a front-row seat to the alchemy of pasta-making. Choose from four categories: Red Sauce Pasta, White Sauce Pasta, More Pasta and Not Pasta, with house-made classics like Doppio Pomodoro, Carbonara and Cacio e Pepe. There’s also unique gems like Zuppa di Patate e Basilico and Raviolo Grande Spinach e Uovo.

In addition to an extensive wine list, Otto & Pepe also offers a beverage menu full of innovative cocktails. Think truffle Negroni, strawberry-balsamic spritz, and orange and macadamia mimosa. The restaurant didn’t forget about the classics either, with spritzes and negronis also available.
The restaurant is open Monday–Sunday, 5 p.m.–1 a.m.
