"We ate at Serafina for an early dinner after a Sunday matinee. We were greeted warmly by the hostess, seated right away, and then within a few minutes the waiter greeted us and took our drink orders. When it came time to order, the waiter was helpful and informative when we had a question. He was attentive, but didn't rush us at all. The food was all excellent and portions were generous. We had a spinach salad with goat cheese and an arugula salad with a fig dressing to start. Then we had lasagna, rigatoni bolognese, and cacio e pepe. All arrived hot, tasty, and al dente. For dessert we shared tiramisu, profiteroles, and the ricotta cheesecake, which was exceptional! At the end of the evening, the waiter offered to take a picture to help commemorate the event. It was such a wonderful evening, the perfect end to a fun afternoon in NYC."
