On Wednesday night, while having dinner at a restaurant in Miami, Lionel Messi was hailed by an extremely passionate admirer and surrounded by fans and media.

Through the rear door of the Italian eatery Cafe Prima Pasta in Miami Beach, Messi attempted to flee his family, which comprised his wife Antonela Roccuzzo, their three sons Mateo, Thiago, and Ciro, as well as his father Jorge.

As he left a Miami restaurant on Wednesday with his family, Lionel Messi got a kiss on the cheek.

The football star was swarmed by enthusiastic fans as he made his way to his car.

Messi left to return home with his wife Antonela and children after appearing unconcerned by the situation.

Antoniela didn’t say anything but grinned in acknowledgment while wearing white crop top and orange palazzo trousers.

The World Cup winner was then startled when the same journalist hugged him while he was still posing for pictures with his adoring fans.

“Welcome to Inter,” the reporter remarked in Spanish as he followed Messi to his car. I adore you. We have all been anticipating your arrival.

A crowd of spectators encircled the forward as he eventually made it to his car and crammed into the driver’s door, making it nearly impossible for him to exit the parking lot.

The fans finally parted to make room for the valet and the reporter, who had only seconds earlier been leaning his face against the car window to proclaim his adoration for the superstar.

At the SoFlo restaurant, the Messi family ate. A skirt steak with truffle fries and grilled asparagus for $36.95 was the most expensive item on the menu.

Messi and the restaurant’s owner Cea posed for a picture in the “Secret Back Room,” as seen on the restaurant’s Instagram page, with Messi’s eldest son Thiago playing the drums in the background.

As the 36-year-old exited the popular Miami Beach location, admirers recorded him and snapped pictures of him.

Before attempting to interview Messi’s wife Antonela, one reporter welcomed her to Miami.

The popular Italian restaurant in Miami Beach has been serving pasta since it first opened its doors in 1993. However, having a football great at the table will undoubtedly increase business.

The establishment has previously entertained NBA legends Michael Jordan, Pitbull, and actor Michael Caine, and a private room is available for bookings.

Additionally, Messi’s visit is not his first to the eatery, which has a photo of the former Barcelona great on its “Celebs” story carousel.
