    This place never disappoints us. I asked for a table in a quiet spot and got it. It’s very loud in here due to the crowd, but we were able to have a great conversation and an amazing time. Our server was amazing helped us order enough food for the 6 of us and we didn’t have any leftovers. But we were all Satisfied. Highly recommend their Iberian old fashion, it was delicious. And this is why this place is always packed!

Among their standout dishes, the Limon Ricotta Waffle is an absolute must-try. Light, airy, and bursting with zesty lemon flavor, the waffle perfectly balances sweetness with a creamy ricotta richness, making each bite a delightful experience. Whether you're stopping by for brunch or a leisurely meal, Serena Pastificio delivers culinary excellence in every detail. Highly recommended!

    Overall a great experience. The server was amazing. The bread is to die for. The oysters were delicious. The peel /eat shrimp appetizer was great. The octopus appetizer was great. We also had the she crab soup, the mushroom side, the hushpuppy side. The entrees were the scallops dish and the flounder dish. Overall great. The wait time between dishes seemed very long. Not a place to go if you are on a tight schedule for event after dinner. Suggestion may be to order everything early on and let them glow it. Definitely will be back for oysters and appetizers.
