They have great food. They are also located right across the street from the oakdale theater, so when there is a show, the traffic can get busy. We usually dine here before a show.

Eggplant rollatini was awesome and it was a complimentary appetizer through Messenger! Chicken dish was great. Garlic knots were yum but would’ve been better warm. Service was great!

It was a busy night, but our waiter was obviously new. He was very scattered. We ordered a bottle of white wine, which was delivered at room temperature. He took it back and put it on ice for about 10 minutes...not a great improvement. We shared an order of stuffed mushrooms which were delicious. As I was about to eat the last bite of my salad, I noticed a dead flying insect on the lettuce. I asked to speak with the manager who said it was because the kitchen door was open. We were offered a free dessert. Our entrees were delicious and well prepared. We ordered Tiramisu for our free dessert. Our waiter came back and informed us that the tiramisu was frozen so we needed to choose something else. Overall, I was not very impressed. Im not saying I will never go back, but it won't be anytime soon.

The food is good here, the people are friendly. I'm autistic and the biggest gripe I have is the LED lights in the dining area get intermittently power starved as if they are sharing a circuit with a fridge or something. They go from steady and tolerable to flashing madly throughout the restaurant. I also had to contend with a flimsy booth back by the road side windows where my dining neighbor and I had a lovely time negotiating a balancing act. Non autistic people who went with me had a good time, I'm only writing this for people with sensory issues so we know what to expect. If you miss Stella, the mozzarella pizza is pretty similar, though with less cheese.

We ordered chicken parm and a shrimp scampi. Both were ok, they reminded us of something we would get from a froezn meal from thr grocery store. It seemed like there were not enough staff for the number of people in the restaurant, as our waitress was super busy with a half full dining room. It was also very loud for a half empty space.

Had lunch here yesterday, as usual it was amazing! First off our waitress Nadia was super sweet, and very helpful. My husband ordered his usual Cavatelli Parmigiana, it was delicious...I had to sneak a bite. I ordered something new for myself, can't remember the name of it...but it was linguine with shrimp, chicken, mushrooms and sausage in a brown sauce. It was amazing! Just the right amount of kick from the jalapeno peppers. This might just be my new favorite! Thank you for another delicious meal!

I almost never give 5 stars bc no one is perfect and I haven't tried many dishes from them so I gave them a 4.I've only tried the Chicken Francese dinner. It cost a little over $20 with tax and was worth every cent.They gave me three cutlets in the Francese. Fresh string beans. A fresh roll/bread and pasta. I was only expecting to get the chicken for that price so it was a nice surprise.Food was cooked well but not overdone. Good portions. Great taste. Awesome atmosphere inside- wish I had ate inside instead of bringing the food home.It's difficult to find a good restaurant in my city so I'll definitely be coming back here...Thank you!Parking: Easy location to pull into.off the main street. Plenty of open parking spaces even at 6pm.

Ordered $300 in food for Christmas Eve and what an absolute disaster and disappointment. First the food was ice cold and I had to heat it myself for over an hour. When I placed my order I wasn’t told this or I would have spent my hard earned money somewhere that would have actually sold me food ready to serve. I have ordered from here at least 20 times over the past years and never was given cold food. On top of that my stuffed shells and eggplant rollatini had almost no sauce on them and was not even topped with mozzarella. I had to actually add my own sauce and cheese to make it edible. Pretty sure the stuffed shells were the frozen premade ones you can buy in the supermarket. I’m not sure what has happened to this establishment but we will not throw away another dollar here. Just awful and Serafinos should be ashamed and embarrassed.

Pasta dishes and garlic knots were very good. A bit slow in service but not a deal breaker. Staff was friendly and bar area was decent atmosphere.
