Visited this restaurant for the first time tonight and I enjoyed the meal. The staff were attentive and were able to offer us an English menu - which was a big help. We ordered a couple of starters to share which mainly consisted of fried foods such as dough balls. The starters were good although I found them to be rather filling. We ordered 3 Pizzas and a Calzone they arrived pretty quickly and were what you would expect to find in a typical Italian restaurant. My Calzone was filled with ham, mushroom, cottage cheese and mozzarella, I enjoyed it however the portion size was massive and this meant I could not finish my meal. This was the general consensus with no one finishing their meal, we also found it to be very filling. This place is certainly value for money. You get a lot of food for your money - in fact too much food. The set up of the restaurant I thought was choice. There was a large window into the kitchen to show how your food was being prepared, the kitchen seemed very clean and not at all messy. At the front of the restaurant there is a large pizza oven where you can see your pizza and alike being made. A nice touch was that the pizza chef came to deliver your pizza fresh from the oven however I can see how this would be unpractical when the restaurant is busier. One of the things that I did not like was the fact that whilst we were eating the serving staff were talking next to our table throughout nearly the whole meal. This made me feel slightly uncomfortable throughout my meal. The initial plates we were given were all chipped. In fact I almost confused it for a pattern on the plates - definitely need some new plates. You get what you pay for and this is certainly true about Serafina. The quality of the food was good however it did not blow me away. Value for money - yes but extraordinary food - no. I would recommend this place to a friend but not sure I will be back as there are so many other places to eat nearby. read more
