They’re definitely still working out the kinks service wise but they have really nice employees. It’s turning into a big business lunch spot. The menu looks good but our dishes came out not very good. My risotto was swimming in olive oil it was gross and I felt gross after. My coworker had a bean, shrimp salad and it looked pretty pathetic. You gotta nail the simple dishes. Also no iced tea? For business lunches? Cmon.

I have been to this restaurant 3 times, twice for a drink and once for dinner. Amazing, the staff are super welcoming and friendly. I would definitely come back to my planned stay in New York.

The Bolognese pasta and the Cacio Pepe were very tasty. The salmon entree was also enjoyable. The carpaccio appetizer I felt had no taste. It did not taste like truffle oil was on the meat, it tasted like no flavor oil with a few truffles placed on top. That is VERY different than truffle oil. So overall that appy was tasteless and expensive at $29. The wait service was fair. I could not understand/hear our waiter, he seemed like he needed more training and did not tell us there would be a charge for bread, when he asked if we wanted bread for the table. He also did not tell me I'd be charged for a “refill” of my iced tea. Would not have ordered another tea if I knew I'd be charged.
Been to Serafina before but not this location. Appetizers were fantastic and food was good save for the chicken parm, which was a bit overcooked. Portions were generous. A couple of times our server took a bit of time it seemed to come back to us for more drinks and to see how our meal was, which seemed to be a by-product of how busy they got. That aside all staff were very pleasant and accommodating.

Amazing food and service. The staff is great and very friendly. We love the new menu, delicious varieties of Italian food. My favorite is spicy Penne alla vodka , Spaghetti alle vongole and pizza all’uovo. Our favourite naighbour hood spot ❤️ you must

We came for a girls night. Dinner and a Broadway show. The food was amazing. My friends had never been and they loved it. For me Serafina never disappoints. I always feel confident suggesting Serafina's for dinner. My friend has celiacs disease and she said her gluten free pasta was the best she ever had!!

The host team was incredible...was running late due to traffic by 30 minutes and they sat us as soon as we arrived. Did not feel rushed and made it to our Broadway show with time to spare. Thank you!
What a fantastic experience all around! The ambience - lighting & decoration, menu (food, dtinks, desserts) and food presentation & service. For all 4 people in my party it was our 1st time eating there and we all look forward to returning!

Serafina Vino e Cucina 30 Broad is a re-imagined concept for a location they have occupied for some time in the Financial District of lower Manhattan, just one block south of the New York Stock Exchange on Broad Street.The restaurant is absolutely beautiful and only opened less than a month ago at the end of January, I love the yellow accent color they use, which makes everything seem so bright and fun. The walls decorated with wine and champagne bottles, backlit by LED lights is a beautiful and modern touch. My only complaint about their decor is that they packed just a few too many tables into the space. At the time we visited, the restaurant was only about 25% full and the server had a difficult time reaching our table because of the space. With a full house, it could be just a bit overcrowded to fully enjoy the meal.Christian, at the host stand, greeted us with a big smile and told us a little about the history of that location. He asked us where we wanted to sit, which is always a nice touch rather than being 'put' where they want us. The table was beautifully set, though it seemed a bit smaller than usual.Our server came over right away to greet us and take our drink order. I ordered the Lambrusco Riserva DOP. It was perfect for that moment, not too sweet with a light effervescence.For our appetizers, we ordered meatballs and bruschetta. The meatballs were some of the best we have had in a long time. I prefer my Italian food bold with lots of Mediterranean spices and garlic and they delivered. I would go back just for the meatballs; they were that good! The bruschetta was fresh as could be with red ripe tomatoes and fresh ribbons of basil - light and delicious.The main courses we ordered were the Orecchiette sausage with broccoli rabe and the tagliolini carbonara. The Orecchiette Sausage dish was the star. It was not too spicy but had the depth of a good meat dish without being too 'meaty'. It was perfect. Unfortunately, the carbonara had to be sent back. I do not mean to be overly critical of the dish but the only way I can describe the tase is that it smelled like a dirty dish rag. It was unlike any carbonara we have ever had.Sometimes things happen like this, it is not the end of the world and the way the restaurant handles a hiccup says a lot about the restaurant. They immediately offered us an alternate dish. Because the sausage dish was so good, we ordered that but decided to take it to go, which was not the fault of the restaurant. We were just running short on time. In the end the restaurant was very apologetic and wound up taking one entree off our check. They handled the issue professionally and to our satisfaction.I want to give this restaurant a 5-star review and if I could give 4.5 stars, I would do that with no hesitation. At this time, I am rating our experience as a 4-star experience but will come back again soon and hopefully be able to submit a new 5-star review.Bottom line - try this great new place but stay away from the carbonara.

Although we were pleased to get a last minute reservation, we wouldn't make a point of going back to this restaurant. From the moment we arrived, our server seemed to not be very happy we were there. It was hard to get her attention & her answers to our questions were quick & short. Late in our dinner, our daughter accidentally broke a glass - the other staff were quick & kind about helping us clean it up. But the approach of our server, along with fairly lackluster food, makes it unlikely we'll return.
As usual the food was good. Management should put tighter control on their waitstaff. They seem to do wherever the like whenever they like. Waited 15 minutes for my check while watching waiter chitchatting with his pals. That always sucks. Ruins an otherwise perfect meal.

We sat in the back room by kitchen which affected our experience. Try to avoid that. The burrata and the Pizza Bianca were delicious but the Vodka Penne was undercooked. We asked for bread and it came cold and stale unlike the nice toasted bread that came with the appetizers.
