Casadonna

Casadonna occupies a bayfront site at 1737 N Bayshore Drive, on the Biscayne Bay waterfront at the southern end of Edgewater. The format is coastal Italian, the terrace runs along the bay, and service is split across a Saturday lunch, a Sunday brunch and dinner every night, closing at 10pm on weeknights and 11pm on Friday and Saturday.

The alcohol-free build documented at the restaurant is the Donna d'Oro. It is made with Almave Ámbar, the distilled blue agave spirit produced without alcohol, and balanced with pineapple and lime. The choice of base matters: Almave is made from cooked blue agave rather than flavoured water, so the drink carries a vegetal, faintly smoky weight that a straight fruit build does not, and it is the reason the same drink appears in two separate December 2025 Miami round-ups. Secret Miami listed Casadonna second in its survey of fifteen zero-proof rooms and called the pairing of coastal Italian cooking with sweeping waterfront views an ideal setting for booze-free drinking. RESIDENT, covering the same season, wrote that the Donna d'Oro channels coastal Italian ease while maintaining structure and depth, and that it is designed for lingering afternoons and long dinners. Almave is not currently carried in this catalogue's brand registry, so the entry names the spirit in the drink specification without attaching a brand tag. Note that some published listings give the address as 1717 N Bayshore Drive; Google Places and Secret Miami both record 1737, which is the number used here. Google Places records the venue at 1737 N Bayshore Dr, 1st Floor, which is the level the restaurant occupies, and returns the hours reproduced in this entry. For anyone planning an evening in Edgewater without drinking, Casadonna and Amara at Paraiso sit within a few blocks of each other on North Bayshore Drive, and both publish named alcohol-free builds. Bookings run through the restaurant's site and on (305) 475-2272; the venue posts as @casadonnamiami.
