This lovely, comfortable restaurant has a generous, very reasonably-priced 2-course price-fixed lunch. Have eaten it several times. Each dish delicious - hard to choose which to order. The eggplant Parmesan first course is truly special as are the chopped Brussels sprouts over crispy risotto cake. Today 3 of us shared those 2 along with perfectly and lightly fried calamari. Just as difficult to choose among the second courses. My 2 companions raved about the butternut squash ravioli. I enjoyed the chicken paillard. There is a nice wine list including a decent selection by the glass. Finally, this is a very easy restaurant to get to and park at. Hope it remains for many years to come.

What an amazing experience! A party of 10 to celebrate my nieces birthday. The food was excellent, the service was amazing, friendly and warm. We couldn't have asked for a better evening. Creme Brûlée was out of this world. Everything was delicious! . Highly recommend.

Drove by again. Can't believe people go. They withhold pay to their staff..... This chain should be avoided until they make a statement and pay the workers

Three of us had lunch. I received the wrong salad and my friend was served the wrong entree. My black bass was so overcooked the edges curled up. Scena's atmosphere is tired. I would pass.

Nice place, ok food, nothing exciting. Looks really nice outside from the sidewalk...inside is one large room w scattered tables. The food is new Italian with a lengthy menu. (Too lengthy?) very average. Not sure I'd go out of my way to go back there.

I use too really enjoy going to Scena for dinner. Was always a good solid Italian meal. Not the case anymore. I think I am not the only one who feels this way, normally a pretty good crowd on the weekends but half empty this past Friday. Not to sound awful but an Italian restaurant with not a Italian in sight is pretty dubious to begin with. Something tells me it's under new ownership over the past few years. Something has definitely changed for the worst, unfortunate.

From the moment we walked in, we felt like we were inconveniencing them. We stood in the front and seemed like a while before anyone came over to seat us despite the fact that we had a reservation. Once seated, we waited again to be acknowledged and to get menus. The server appeared to be in a bad mood. We ordered two appetizers to start. The artichoke was quite good. We saw that the arancini was frozen in the middle when we cut into it. We sent that back. The pasta and seafood special lacked flavor but the risotto seafood was good. Overall, a pretty disappointing experience. Unsure as to why anyone would give it another chance given the mediocre food and the unwelcoming service.
Excellent place to eat and share with a extraordinary persons..

We entered the Restaurant at 3pm and I see a worker eating by the bar. I finally located a waiter and asked if we can be seated outside. The waiter looked annoyed. After we were seated we proceeded to order appetizers. Appetizers came out timely but the best Is yet to come. We realize that we haven’t seen our waiter in about a half hr and we wanted to order entrees so I went inside to look for him but only seen the busboy. I explained to the busboy that we would like to order our entrees and I’m trying to locate our waiter or any waiter at this point but was told the waiter went home. I asked for the check and went to another restaurant to eat. It was embarrassing and hoping the owner makes the necessary changes otherwise i can’t see them being around much longer. I really hate to write reviews but this was a Rare experience.

I brought my mother here who has celiacs and will get very sick if she eats gluten... The server ensure us that her meal was gluten free multiple times...it was not and my mother got very sick. This is a health concern the management should be taking way more seriously.Dietary restrictions: celiacs
