    Had pre-show dinner and drinks at Seraphine for the first time. I was so impressed with the atmosphere, and most of all the service! Our bartender was patient, and helpful. Our friendly mixologist helped us select the right amount of food, and drinks (which were delicious!). Then, exceeded our expectations by timing everything just right. I will say the artichoke starter was my favorite!! Will definitely return soon, and try the oysters.

    Seraphine NEVER disappoints! I’ve tried virtually every offering, and they all are consistently delicious. And the portions are just the right size and the cocktails are beautifully mixed! The service is also always outstanding, as is the festive but not overly noisy atmosphere. It’s the perfect place to show off Durham’s food scene to friends from out of town!

    Seraphine is charming. Our server, Eric, knew the menu extremely well and provided excellent service. The pan seared scallops with succotash were outstanding. Likewise, my husband’s Dragos style oysters were superb. We highly recommend!

    Great ambiance! Went for a quick bite at the bar and quick drink before a show at DPac. Food and service was amazing! There were so many good options that I want to try off the menu. Definitely coming back soon!
