    This location is closed. Left us without a dining reservation on a very busy NYC marathon night. Two thumbs down for Serafina and Opemtable

    Small place and big crowd. Customers who scream but don’t talk. Food is decent enough.

    This is not a fancy place but definitely a solid neighborhood restaurant. Service was attentive. The busboy keeps refilling our water glasses without being asked. I had the veal and it’s a solid B+. Not as smooth as I expected of milk fed veal but still tender. My husband had pasta puttanesca and he said was good. We will definitely go back.

    Excellent desserts. I ordered the Carpaccio and there was hardly any meat. Loads of veggies and parmesan but not the right ratio of salad to meat.

    I had an incredibly disappointing experience at Serafina Osteria. The manager was extremely rude, and the service was horrible. I do not recommend this place at all. Instead, take a five-minute walk and go to the regular Serafina (which is what I did). Save yourself the trouble and avoid this restaurant.

    We were looking for a place to enjoy conversation and we were a big party of 9, this worked out perfect, we shared some appetizers and everyone ordered their own main then dessert and wine of course. Even though it is a small restaurant they did a great job for our group. Highly recommend.

    I thought I was making reservations at Serafinas Broadway. I was pleasantly surprised to see that this Serafinas was smaller but better. The food was superb. The service was incredible. Our server was Alfredo and he went above and beyond to make our experience memorable. I highly recommend this place!

    We enjoyed the daily special which was a chicken, moist and flavorful, served with vegetables. Also had the lemon pasta which was divine. Excellent flavor. Tea was refilled. I wouldn’t order the affogato again, although it was fine.
