Our party was a group of 12 on the patio. Several of us were commenting about how many years it had been and how astonished we were that we allowed so much time to go by before returning to Serafina. The service was a wonderful collaborative effort including my reservation contact from the previous day, Nicole. This was not a contracted group reservation but more or less normal with just a slightly paired down menu which was perfect. Everything was absolutely delicious.
The 1st thing that hits you at Serafina is the ambience..the minute you walk up to the restaurant. The service..from host to server was fantastic, and all dishes were perfect. This was a birthday celebration for my son and the staff was super friendly and welcoming. I look forward to my next visit to Seattle so I can return to Serafina.

The Bolognese was perhaps the best pasta dish I’ve ever had. Visited for a late dinner last night and am still thinking about it. My wife enjoyed her Gnocchi and our Arancini was delicious, too. The dishes were worthy of a 5 star review by themselves, but our service was great service as well.

SUPER ROMANTIC AND COZY GEM ? in Seattle. We celebrated our valentines weekend here and OMG I cant wait to go back!! super fresh pastas, amazing appetizers and RISOTTOSSS!!! Their octopus appetizers were cooked perfectly, balanced really well with acidity and octopus’ sweetness ❤️ we enjoyed so much lobster risotto; fresh and sweet. Mushroom pasta was comforting and chewy, cheesy but not too-saucey. Staff were super busy but we had great time chatting; coat check is available! Adorable dog biscuits by the door is $5 so you can take home some treats for your pooch ❤️

Delicious Italian food...loved the ragú bolognese and the blood orange mocktail. The service was amazing and they were so gracious to hold our reservation even though we were running late.

Had an exquisite experience dining at Serafina. The service was amazing considering it was a very busy Valentine's night. My partner and I both had the seafood entrees which were on point. My scallops were seared to perfection and the sauce kept me coming back for more. Dishes were plated very well too! The cocktails were very well done. Again, considering how busy the night was, kudos to the bartender, staff and the chef.All in all, it was one of those rare dining experiences where you are left wondering if the place is actually located in Seattle (given it's almost impossible to find quality establishments at any price point).

Can't go wrong with this great local spot. It has great atmosphere and simple, yet delicious dishes. Summers have the extra benefit of eating outside in the patio area. Their pastas are perfectly cooked and very tasty. I've never had a bad dish here, but to me the price doesn't always warrant the content. One nice thing is that you can do half orders of pastas, and the full order is definitely enough for two meals unless you are totally starving.
Came on Valentines Day and wasnt seated for 20+ mins past our reservation, then we waited over an hour for food (they apologized a few times). Food was good but not as good as some other seattle places with similar price points. Very cute inside. Worth a visit, probably is better not on Valentines day

Serafina is a Seattle treasure! We love this atmosphere infused mainstay of the Seattle restaurant scene. Try it for a special night out. My favorite dish is the Melanzane. I never order a different entree but everything is delicious. The food is always fresh, beautifully plated and tasty.

We went to Serafina for Valentines Day dinner and what a treat it was. We knew it would be a busy evening for them, and it was. We received a very friendly greeting when we arrived and were shown to our table. The staff was attentive and helpful with describing the food and providing excellent service. We recommend Serafina to everyone we know.

It was a great place for an evening dinner the drinks and appetizers were so delicious! Our main entrees were yummy but quite salty, that made it difficult to enjoy. But very great evening!

My wife and I went there for a special occasion, and it was exactly as I remembered it. The service was very good with engaging and welcoming staff. Everyone was terrific about making sure that our meals were satisfactory, and that our drink orders were exactly what we expected. Very good experience overall.
