Serafina 2043 Eastlake Avenue East, Seattle, WA 98102

"Had an exquisite experience dining at Serafina. The service was amazing considering it was a very busy Valentine's night. My partner and I both had the seafood entrees which were on point. My scallops were seared to perfection and the sauce kept me coming back for more. Dishes were plated very well too! The cocktails were very well done. Again, considering how busy the night was, kudos to the bartender, staff and the chef. All in all, it was one of those rare dining experiences where you are left wondering if the place is actually located in Seattle (given it's almost impossible to find quality establishments at any price point)."

"Can't go wrong with this great local spot. It has great atmosphere and simple, yet delicious dishes. Summers have the extra benefit of eating outside in the patio area. Their pastas are perfectly cooked and very tasty. I've never had a bad dish here, but to me the price doesn't always warrant the content. One nice thing is that you can do half orders of pastas, and the full order is definitely enough for two meals unless you are totally starving."

"Me and my friend had a delightful experience. We started with Melanzane, which was quite tasty. And the pasta, however, we wanted to change our al dente pasta and requested it to be well-cooked. The staff was quick to accommodate our request, and the replacement pasta was perfect. While waiting for our pasta, they kindly brought us delicious bread and fragrant olive oil. The attentive service and delicious food made this visit a memorable one"

"One of the jewels of Seattle dining is tucked away in the Eastlake district; Serafina. The menu features an amazing selection of Italian inspired entrees and appetizers. The bar is a frenetic show of amazing cocktails and beers. A little pricey but you get every penny's worth in the amazing dishes, drinks, and general atmosphere. This night I had the salmon plate followed with a sorbet dessert and a tawny port. Exquisite to say the least. On any given night Serafina can be rather busy, so I recommend making a reservation. Personally I enjoy sitting at the bar and watching the amazing show the busy staff put on; both servers and kitchen. Also, the bar staff - such as Randy or Claire - are incredibly knowledgeable and their suggestions have been spot on. While there are many dining choices in Seattle, Seafina is not to be missed. One of Seattle's true hidden dining treasures."
