    Serena Pastificio in Midtown Atlanta offers an exceptional dining experience with its warm ambiance, attentive service, and an exquisite menu that celebrates authentic Italian flavors. Among their standout dishes, the Limon Ricotta Waffle is an absolute must-try.

Whether you're stopping by for brunch or a leisurely meal, Serena Pastificio delivers culinary excellence in every detail. Highly recommended!

    Our family with 2 college aged kids had a fabulous and fun experience dining at O-Ku as part of our holiday celebrations together. We had the Osusume chef tasting menu and loved every bit of it. Our outstanding server Elena described it as a tour of the menu. It included sushi and sashimi courses as well as delicious braised beef and dessert. We also enjoyed tasting different sake's and learning more about the flavor profiles. A great experience overall!

    Overall a great experience. The server was amazing. The bread is to die for. The oysters were delicious. The peel /eat shrimp appetizer was great. The octopus appetizer was great. We also had the she crab soup, the mushroom side, the hushpuppy side. The entrees were the scallops dish and the flounder dish. Overall great. The wait time between dishes seemed very long. Not a place to go if you are on a tight schedule for event after dinner. Suggestion may be to order everything early on and let them glow it. Definitely will be back for oysters and appetizers.

    Great meal. Part of our party was late and they never rushed us ana in fact we felt worse than they seemed. Food was not rushed and arrived hot at the table. They servers were very friendly and made us feel well taken care of. Steaks and pork chop were tasty. Hash browns were wonderful as is the Mac and cheese. The ice cream cake that came for the birthday boy was amazing and is worth it at any price. Bones never disappoints.
