Service was a little too attentive, almost intrusive Main course arrived too long after appetizer plates cleared Special green pasta was under seasoned; too bland Banquette seating was too soft; needs to be restrung

I made reservations. The place had a funky odor where we were seated and asked to be moved which took a long while to finally get moved. There were plenty of other areas. All though better still faint odd odor. The booth where we happily moved had seats that were horrid, bumpy, lumpy so pretty uncomfortable. The calamari appetizer was eh, the pizzas were undercooked. My chicken salad was okay asked for two dressings on the side since I was splitting the salad and pizza. Only on was brought. Expresso martini and Lychee martini were superb! The waitress was friendly, the bus boys excellent. Water glasses always refilled. All in all disappointing, maybe we just hit a bad night.

My husband and I enjoyed a wonderful dinner at Serafina Upper West. The service was excellent, the food was delicious, and the location was perfect for us to attend a concert at the Beacon Theater after the meal.

I have been to Sarafina many times, yesterday experience was disappointing. The food was below their average standards and we didn’t enjoy many of the dishes we ordered. The pizza which I always order was subpar, the hamburgers no one liked.
