The carbonara pizza was excellent, the service was slow and we got upsold on a $10 bottle of Fiji water when there is nothing wrong with tap water in Puerto Rico, at least we got some satisfaction a half bottle having to be provided free because the server poured some of the water into a dirty glass that had to be renewed

Service was terrible, I asked my waitress a specific question about one of the appetizers and she assured me of how the food would be prepared only for the food to come out not how she confirmed it would. I then asked another question on the menu and was instructed to look on Instagram to help myself with ordering. Once ordering items we saw on IG, the entrees were completely different which probably could’ve been avoided if our waitress simply answered our questions herself. Then our food took foreverrrr, with 1/2 of the dishes coming out cold & dry most likely from sitting. I ordered a “classic” Margherita pizza, as labeled on IG, and was given a different pizza. Due to time restrictions, we weren’t able to send food back to be remade properly. The place was beautiful & easy to find and located in a great area but beware if you come in and need any guidance on their menu offerings.

Crystal, our server, made our experience so much fun! My husband had her choose his entree between two options, along with our dessert and her choices were spot-on! This was our first dinner whole visiting the area that felt special.

I found this place on the web. We went and it was a great time. Delicious food. I had the Branzini which was awesome. We had a martini which was awesome. Beer which is awesome. And our server was just the best ever.. sadly I never asked his name like I usually do. But I would love to give kudos out to him.

We arrived at 7:15 and did not even get the appetizers until we complained past 8:15 PM. It doesn’t matter how good the food was. The service was horrendous. I highly recommend not going if you plan on getting good service. It even took 30 to 40 minutes to get our bill

I am usually not one to write reviews however for this restaurant I needed too. I’ve been looking forward to eating at Serafina for quite some years now and I had the chance and let me tell you I regret it. To begin with it’s a shame that a restaurant of that standard considers itself Italian it’s far from being Italian. The margherita pizza was a basic American cheese pizza ($24) really not worth it. I ate at Pizza Hut a few days back and it blew this pizza out of the park. Secondly my gf and I took 2 plates of pasta. Hers was shrimp limoncello ($32) which was apparently the best seller. Plate was received and it looked like a soup. Shrimp were boiled which is horrible, they put fresh diced tomatoes on top which really has nothing to do with the dish and it had zero taste even after putting Parmesan cheese. I took the orecchiette pasta with sausage and broccoli ($29) and it was decent. They had missing glasses of red wine and kept upselling a bottle, no espresso after being asked if I wanted coffee and kept trying to upsell dessers which tbh I just wanted to leave the restaurant. Save yourself the money and buy sauce in a can at the grocery store it will probably be better than what I was served. Restaurant is quoted a 4.3 on Google however I’m sure those are fake reviews.
