Profile

Sit upstairs at the 79th Street location, and pretend you're on a breezy patio in Italy as you munch on Serafina's delectable thin-crust pizzas, stellar pastas, and inventive salads. Be sure to go early: The no-reservations policy means the lines start to get pretty long around 8 p.m.

Note

Reservations only accepted for parties of six or more.

The best Italian restaurant for casual dining. There are several Serafinas in NYC, the food is always consistently good. Make sure to try the Focaccia Di Sofia, crispy on the outside and soft cheese with truffle oil on the inside. Nice grilled fish selection too. Kid friendly, cool vibe, music, families, single people--something for everyone.

what a rip-off

The food was medicore, and the service horrible! They kept complaining about the need to turn over the tables in front of us when we were done in under 30 minutes. They never refilled water and even tried to take my plate away before my husband's dinner was brought out! To add insult, we went to the bathroom and they moved all of us our things away from the table and on the floor!
