“ Was there with a work dinner with guest from Japan. The food was very tasty and all guests were happy. The atmosphere was comfortable and only the service sometimes a bit rough and struggling with English. Also no English menu available. ”
“ We have been there many times. Now they said pizza was taken off the menu because they want to get the restaurant to a higher level. This will not help as long as the cooking needs further developed in order to be considered as real Italian cooking. ”
“ The service was amazing. Food was very delicious. We were served by Viola, she was teriffic. 10/10 would recommend ”
“ Unexpectedly nice. Definitely worthy of more than 13 in Gault Millau. ”
“ Nice options on the menu. Enjoy great food with a garden view. Will come back for sure ”
“ Nice place to eat real Italian food. What it should cost is up to Italians. I am convinced this food you can't find anywhere else in the area. We enjoyed the starter and main, the dessert was a bit simple and could be improved. We thank the waiter for his wine advice since we are no connaisseurs on the topic. The choice he made for us was sincerely good. We had a nice wedding anniversary in Serafina ”
“ Wonderful meal. Beautiful surroundings (have to go back in the summer). Very professional and friendly service. ”
