“ Had a nice dinner with my family tonight. The restaurant is big and beautiful. We all enjoyed our meals and our waitress was very friendly and patient with our large group. The chicken parm was so tender you could cut through it with just a fork. The seafood pasta and mussels appetizer were the stars! The only thing we did not love was the calamari. The chocolate torta was a great way to end the night ”
“ Excellent food and service! My husband and I were looking for a good italian meal and boy did we find it! The menu is huge, so there truly is something for everyone. We started with an appetizer of the ricotta garlic bread, and it was to die for! If you like cheese, I promise you'll love it! For dinner my husband had cheese pizza which he said was very good. I ordered the seafood alfredo which was so creamy and tasty. I don't think you could go wrong with anything on their menu! We will be back to visit again soon! ”
“ Had lunch here yesterday, as usual it was amazing! First off our waitress Nadia was super sweet, and very helpful. My husband ordered his usual Cavatelli Parmigiana, it was delicious...I had to sneak a bite. I ordered something new for myself, can't remember the name of it...but it was linguine with shrimp, chicken, mushrooms and sausage in a brown sauce. It was amazing! Just the right amount of kick from the jalapeno peppers. This might just be my new favorite! Thank you for another delicious meal! ”
“ A group of five of us had dinner here at a Friday night before a show at the Oakdale Theater. Reservations were made beforehand, and I definitely recommend them for a Friday night. I live in the area and many people I know frequent Serafino's. I am the odd one out that hadn't been before this particular visit. The restaurant was extremely busy, and it was kind of a tight fit. They had a seated at a table that was very tight for five people, but a booth right next to our table was large, and meant to accommodate six we asked to be moved, and a waitress was supposed to check if we could move, but then it seemed like they forgot. Two of us ordered a salad and three ordered a pasta dish. I also ordered a stuffed mushroom appetizer. Everyone loved their meals. My salad was very filling, and all of the ingredients were extremely fresh stuffed mushrooms were also very good. Two of the women had drinks and commented that they were OK , I just had water. I didn't have a chance to walk around the restaurant or use the restroom, but the place looks big and there was some outdoor seating. I would definitely return, perhaps on a weeknight and try one of their regular entrées and maybe sit outside this time. ”
“ Serafinos is a restaurant located in Wallingford right off the highway and just a couple minutes to the Oakdale theater. We actually had a show Friday night so we grabbed dinner before hand. It was busy but not extremely packed. I do suggest making reservations tho. I forgot to mention Serafinos is Italian . Apps, salads, pasta dishes, drinks. Service was good , a bit all over the place but we were checked on, orders came in time, food was good. I really enjoyed my salad actually. I didn't see a labeled gluten free on the menu . They did say they had GF pasta but didn't want to risk it with the sauce. The drinks were ok. I just had a sangria and it was alright. It had some taste to it. Besides that . We enjoyed our meal ”
“ The Serafino's Special pizza is cravable. We used to live down the road from Serafino's but moved out of state for 8 years. We moved back and returned. Often things are not as remembered. To our delight this pizza was just as we remembered and it was excellent. The thin crust gives way under the weight of all the ingredients piled high and thick. One downside if you're a local is they are across the street from the Toyota Oakdale Theater. On show nights they can get extremely crowded and they limit their menu. If however you're going to a show and can get in, you're in for a treat. Our son had the baked ziti, a good flavorful portion. Like many of the pasta dishes it seemed a bit pricey. They've remodeled the inside and it's nice and open. Tonight the service was friendly and quick. It was good to come home and we will have be back. ”
