arolo sits just outside the doorstep of the bouncy boulevard, quietly  observing the scene across 5th street. Barolo is a place built with style and finesse. Barolo borrowed its name from the famous italian wine produced in Barolo, Italy. The fact that Barolo is considered to be Italy's finest wine is no coincidence.

The food at Barolo derives from a very basic interpretation of the art of cooking: simple ingredients are used to form amazing dishes. Chef Lindsay Spalding thrives on the flavors and products of Italy: fresh herbs, organic vegetables, olive oil, local meats and seafood.  

The menu presents a celebration of elegant comfort foods. Her brilliance is in the simplicity of her dishes. It can be as straightforward as a caprese salad with homemade mozarella, heirloom tomatoes, basil, arugola topped with 25 year old balsamic and laudemino extra virgin olive oil. Or a Barolo wine risotto with squid and caramelized radichio.

With its mix of casual elegance and authentic flavors, Barolo is considered a real gem among the locals on South Beach. So don't rethink Italian food: rethink Ocean Drive.
