This Serafina is in the heart of the theater district. It is great for pre or post theater dining. The menu is inclusive without being overwhelming, as is the wine list. The service and food are excellent and the ambience pleasing.

We dined at Carnegie Dinner & Cafè which is a charming restaurant where the food and service were truly amazing. The flavors were exquisite, and the staff was attentive and friendly, enhancing our overall experience. However, the table for two was quite small, making it a bit cramped, especially with the generous portions of food. While we enjoyed every bite, we found ourselves a bit tight on space. Despite this minor drawback, I highly recommend this restaurant for a delightful meal!

Food was amazing! Service was also very good and attentive. It is pretty small in there (which is obviously not a foreign concept in NYC) and I know they can only do so much about. While I didn’t mind being placed at the community table, I could see how this would not be welcomed depending on who your neighbors are; can only have so much privacy. I embraced it though! Had a charm with the projector in the back playing the 3 stooges.
