    Amazing! Priscila was our server, she was such a sweetheart and so helpful with our dietary needs. Food was sooooo good I wanted to save leftovers for tomorrow but I couldn’t stop eating! We loved the ambiance, drinks were great, service was fantastic. We will definitely be coming back and seeing a movie afterwards!

    Whenever I am in the Boca area, I make it a point to visit. I have been to Serana’s 3 times in 1 month. From simple Pomodoro to bolognese sauce and homemade pastas. This is the real deal, all authentic. Salads and desserts are large enough to share. The entree size is more than enough. Surprisingly the pricing is on the low side. An added bonus is garage free parking. Our servers are knowledgeable, friendly and extremely welcoming. The vibe is casual, yet sophisticated.

    WOW! INCREDIBLE experience. COME THROUGH JADE !!!!!!!!! Ok—where do I begin? Food? Shockingly impressed. Everything was fresh and flavorful. DRINKS !!!?????!! Creative, thoughtfully made by experts and extremely tasty. SERVICE ???? We sat at the bar and had the pleasure of getting served/tended to by Jade and she really was the star of the show. Extremely friendly, personable, empathetic, and human. It’s people like her that make a place worth coming back. Don’t get me wrong the menu was insanely good. We got meals there but still took entrees home from how much we couldn’t resist trying more. Overall 11/10 experience. We’re 100% coming back for regular date nights. I will be dreaming of their short rib pappardelle and sweet potato crème Brule !!!

    Dining at Serena Pastificio was an exceptional experience from start to finish. As someone from Europe, I was truly impressed by how authentic the food felt—it captured the essence of real Italian cuisine with remarkable precision. Every dish was fresh, beautifully balanced, and crafted with care. The handmade pasta was perfectly cooked, and the flavors were both refined and comforting. Compliments to the chef for creating such memorable dishes and for bringing true Italian authenticity to Boca Raton. The staff provided impeccable service—attentive, gracious, and genuinely welcoming—which made the evening even more special. The atmosphere was elegant yet inviting, blending sophistication with warmth. Serena Pastificio is a rare gem that transports you straight to Italy, and I look forward to returning soon.

    We have been to Serena multiple times and every single time it has been a memorable experience. From the bar for a quick drink, too brunch with friends and even a romantic date night, Serena is where you want to be. The menu changes with the seasons, but some of my favorite dishes are ones that are always available. The linguine and clams are truly top notch, meatballs are a meal in themselves and their table side fresh mozzarella with tomato has brought us back twice in one week. Elvira takes care of us every time we are there and makes us feel like we are back home in my mother’s kitchen. Her knowledge of the menu, her kind demeanor and her need to make sure you have an amazing experience, is like no other. Lastly, I can’t forget the desserts, and neither should you. My favorite is the limoncello cake paired with their house made limoncello. Wow! I promise, it’s worth it. Salute!
