Serafina – Italian
Bathed in a signature golden glow, this chic urban retreat captures the spirited energy of a Roman piazza with its vibrant atmosphere and sun-drenched, hand-painted murals. Whisper-thin pizzas emerge blistered and fragrant from the oven to join plates of silken, house-made pasta, creating a sophisticated yet lively setting where every meal feels like a celebratory escape to the heart of Italy.
