Serafina is a stunning Italian restaurant located underground in the charming brownstones of Back Bay, Boston. The ambiance is beautifully intimate, and the bar is easily accessible, making it a great spot for a cozy night out. The food was delicious and reasonably priced, offering a delightful range of classic Italian dishes. However, the service left something to be desired. We had to track down our server a few times to place our order, and the wait for our food was longer than expected. Despite this, the overall experience was pleasant, and the restaurant's atmosphere and cuisine make it worth a visit.

My husband and I went for dinner on Saturday night. Although, they were extremely busy they made every effort to find us seats at the bar. We love sitting at the bar so it worked out great. We were truly delighted with this restaurant and we can’t wait to visit again. Great service and vibe but the food was incredible. We can’t wait to visit again.

From the atmosphere, to the service, to the aesthetically pleasing decor, Serafina Back Bay provided a wonderful dining experience. The food and drinks were incredible. Truffle is one of my favorite additions to food and I was very happy with both the truffle fries (omg) and the truffle pasta dish. Our server was the perfect level of attentive. We did not wait long for anything or feel rushed in any capacity. Absolutely going to make a trip back here!

We were in town for the weekend and celebrated my birthday here for dinner. We were pleasantly surprised at what a nice experience this was! Drinks were great! We had the red sangria and expresso martini. Burrata appetizer was delicious and great to share for three. Bianca pizza, orchiette pasta and spinach ravioli were all delicious! A huge thank you to our wonderful server, Ricardo! He made our night even more special by taking the best care of us, taking photos for us, brining me cake (thank you!) and just being a pleasant, sweetheart! Thanks Ricardo! Until next time!
