Profile

This venue is closed.

Serena is a proper, plush lounge, with low black velvet couches, deep-pink pillows, and just enough Moroccan grillwork to keep it looking (luxe) hippie. The champagne-swilling crowd, however, is not quite as eccentric as the residents of the Chelsea Hotel upstairs: Expect British girls who love 80's-revivalist fashion, and the bed-headed men who love them. (Named for original owner, bon vivant caterer Serena Bass.)
