    The service was amazing. The food was amazing. I had the shrimp and scallop risotto. It’s always excellent and we share the dessert of the crème brûlée bread pudding. It was the best I’ve ever had.

    Serafina is always a favorite. We like that it’s off the beaten path, making it a hidden gem. There are plenty of Italian restaurants in South Florida, but there are only a few that are consistently delicious.

    Friend’s birthday celebration pre- show at Broward Center for the Performing Arts Server was prompt and knowledgeable. Our food selections ranged from appetizers and salad to pasta bolognese and pork chop entrees. The atmosphere was warm and festive - l The restaurant is located a short walk from the Broward Center along the waterfront and is a great complement to an enjoyable evening with friends
