One of the most anticipated dining experiences of 2025 finally has an opening date. Eataly, the international Italian marketplace, will open at the Aventura Mall at 3 p.m. June 12. Created by Oscar Farinetti in 2007 in Torino, Italy, the 30,000-square-foot space at the mall will include two sit-down restaurants, a cafè with several quick service counters, a retail section, a wine store and a cooking school.

Tommaso Brusò, CEO of Eataly North America, told the Miami Herald last year that Eataly, which has 14 locations in North America and more than 50 worldwide, aims to “replicate what Italy is today. “ “So when you come to visit Eataly, you’re supposed to have the same experience that you have when you go to Italy physically, without the flying or packing your luggage,” he said. “We are an ambassador for the Italian lifestyle.”
