    So glad we decided to eat at Serafina before our show at the Beacon Theater. The food was amazing! In my opinion the vast part was that the restaurant was spacious and didn’t feel like we were sitting on top of any one else. Highly recommend

    The booths haven’t been re-stuffed or recovered in probably 20 years ( lol ) or since it opened and there’s holes and springs pushing through them , so very uncomfortable to sit on . The focaccia is NOT focaccia it’s grocery store boboli bread split in two and toasted - awful - do not order this ! The chicken dinner was fine, but not great , just edible . Staff and service is very nice though . The drink pours are very very light and not full very sub par. Definitely feel lower quality alcohol brand was substituted for the high end brands ordered . Wouldn’t ever go back here for dinner .

    while we enjoyed our time at the restaurant we did feel a bit uncon=mfortable at the small round booth they sat 5 adults. We managed to figure out how to reorganize ourselves to fit comfortably but a larger table would have been nicer

    We asked our 6 year old granddaughter where she wanted to go to eat near us when she was visiting She said she wanted the tennis racquet pasta with tomato sauce so she decided on Serafina She had well made sauted broccoli to round off the meal Pleasant place to eat and lots of people eating an early dinner like us without it being noisy

    It was great. Myself and two girlfriends stumbled upon the place and had dinner twice over the weekend it was so good. We had pastas one night and then steaks the next . The wine selection was great , all the food delicious and service was friendly . We couldn’t ask for more. Definitely a great find that I will go back to when in town again.
