Spris is one of my absolute favorite restaurants in Miami. It has two locations - one in Coral Gables and one on Lincoln Road. Tuesday night my family and I had dinner at the Coral Gables location before attending an event around the corner.
The Spris menu is Italian with a Miami twist. It offers all the Italian usuals - pizza, calzones, pasta, antipasti, but it also offers a huge salad menu that takes advantage of all the local, fresh produce.
We started our meal with our favorite salad, the Tropicale. Its arugula topped with cherry tomatoes, avocado, hearts of palm, shaved parmesan cheese and dressed with a lemon vinaigrette. Its positively lip-smacking!
For dinner we ordered a bunch of different house specialties. First the prosciutto sandwich which came folded between pieces of grilled pizza dough!
A plate of spaghetti and meatballs (which my mother and sister griped only came with three meatballs):
And the vegetarian pizza which came topped with mushrooms, red onions, broccoli, eggplant, zucchini and cherry tomatoes. The crust had a slight wood oven burn on the bottom that was delicious!
In addition to food that never disappoints, Spris also offers amazing weekly specials. They include:
Monday & Tuesday - Any pizza and a glass of wine or beer for $10.95
Wednesday - Half off all bottles of wine
Thursday - Homemade risotto and a glass of wine for $17.95
Beat the Clock Special - between 5:00pm - 6:30pm the cost of your meal is the time that you place your order. For example, if you order at 5:45, your meal costs $5.45
If you're and Italian food lover, you've got to get to Spris.
