Serafina Upper West 77th

Set along Broadway between the Museum of Natural History, the Beacon Theatre, and Lincoln Center, the space accommodates private gatherings for up to 50 alongside weekend brunch. The kitchen leans on straightforward Italian staples like beef Bolognese, carbonara, and dessert focaccia alla Nutella, paired with a set lunch special, though execution on items like gelato can be inconsistent. Attentive service and accessible dishes make it an easy stop for family dinners with kids.
