Efficient handling of walk-in diners. Attentive and polite staff. Nice high ceilings in the 3rd floor.
Our VIP pizza was thin crusted to our liking with sufficient tomato sauce, mozzarella and basil; however, it wasn’t as tasty.
Our food got cold quickly.
Cute place close to the Metropolitan Art museum. Good food, especially the beef Carpaccio and the Meatballs. Delicious sauce. I did not get to try the pizza, but I liked this place enough that I'll be back and try the pizza next time I'm in the upper East side!
We very much enjoyed the margherita pizza and the bruschetta.
Service is friendly and attentive .
The restaurant is quaint.
Great location close to the Met and just a few minutes from the Guggenheim.
Incredible lunch at Serafina today. Had a Caesar salad and Regina pizza. Hands down one of the best pizzas I have ever had. Highly recommend!
What an amazing place to eat at on a sunny day! It was such a joy to see the colorful and cheerful decoration of the restaurant. I recommend that you reserve in advance mainly because there’s no waiting area and you will end up having to queue on the narrow staircase leading up to the restaurant (not very comfortable). Luckily, we did have a reservations so we sat down immediately. The staff was very friendly and the service was quick! We were a party of 3 and we shared a margherita pizza (without olives) and we each had our own pasta dish: 2 of us had the black truffle ravioli dish and I had the Paglia E Fieno (fettucini with creamy tomato sauce). The pizza was phenomenal from crust to toppings! The 2 other people with me LOVED their ravioli dish and I also loved my fettucini dish. What I liked about my fettucini dish is that the homemade fettucini itself was really special and the portion was very generous! I ended up not having dinner that day! Highly recommend this place!
Serafina fabulous pizza delivers an unforgettable Italian culinary experience. From the warm ambiance to the authentic flavors, every aspect of this restaurant is top-notch. Impeccable service, mouthwatering dishes, and a truly enjoyable atmosphere make it a must-try for Italian food enthusiasts.
The food was great but small portions and the seating is very tight. There was also a chilly draft but also I think this is reasonable prices for the area and its super close to the MET. I wouldn't recommend this place for large groups of people. The lemon pasta and cocktail were amazing.
Love this place! I've been going here on and off for decades. Great staff, good decor and view. Fine food. Addictive desserts. Very convenient to the Met. Only issue is that the entrance is up a steep flight of worn stairs.
Superb. The atmosphere was exactly what my daughters and I needed after a long day of walking. It was charming, quaint, welcoming and warm. The service was great and the food was out of this world.
Delicious food! White wine was delicious. They like to turn tables fast, not a place if you don’t want to feel rushed! They wanted to take my plate when I had my fork still in my hand! Oh well it was delicious and cute atmosphere!
I came here with my friend for her birthday and we had an amazing time. All the food was fresh and service was amazing. Our server was Lucy and she was the only one covering a big area of people on the terrace. She is an amazing waitress. Definitely coming back
We recently had a wonderful experience at Serafina! We visited on a Wednesday evening and were seated immediately. The ambience was lovely, as was the staff. We had the burrata and prosciutto appetizer which was incredible - easily some of the best prosciutto I've ever had! We ordered the gnocchi and steak and potatoes entrees. The gnocchi was perfectly tender and the sauce was delicious. The steak was initially overcooked, but the staff corrected that quickly and the properly prepared cut was tender and delicious. I also had an amazing espresso martini here that will be hard to match taste-wise! Overall I definitely recommend this restaurant if you are looking for reasonably priced Italian food near Central Park.
Yummy Italian food. Tiramisu was amaaszxxiinnggggg. Pasta was tasty… However artichoke with burata was not great. Burata was fresh though.
The food is excellent. The service is gracious. The seafood risotto had twice as much seafood as risotto; the sauce was very tasty.
But it is accessible only by a stair. You should not book if you have a frail or handicapped person.
