    Took a while to get seated cause the host was sitting laughing and talking until deciding to get up and attend me , mind you the restaurant was not busy at all. After that i was greeted by someone who was my server but I wasn’t sure Cuase he was wearing a dirty t-shirt and shorts instead of a uniform . He was polite and took our orders . Drinks took over 20 minutes to get to the table . The appetizer made it there first and was suppose to be queso with chorizo but the chorizo never made it to the party. I give this place a 2/5 .

    It took our server over 40 minutes after we finished our meal to bring us our check. We had to remind her twice. They seem more interested in serving drinks to large parties rather than checking on their regular tables.

    What a hidden gem! At least that’s how it felt on a Tuesday. Service was excellent, food was delicious, such a cute vibe and great for a girls night. Couldn’t believe how quiet it was but maybe it’s busier on the weekends! I could imagine it as a really fun place to have dinner and hang with a livelier crowd.

    Made a reservation for 3pm and when we arrived, the hostess told us that we would have to sit at the bar. Although the restaurant was empty, we could not be accommodated at a table.

    Had a great time at Serena Rooftop. The drinks were excellent, the ceviche was my favorite, and our server was incredibly kind and thoughtful. It was the perfect spot to watch the FIFA games with a relaxed atmosphere that wasn't overly crowded. I'd definitely come back for the food, drinks, and great vibe.
