Upscale Italian with handmade pasta, seasonal patio & great cocktails
"Eating pasta on a patio is always a fantastic party idea. You can do that at Serafina, an upscale Italian spot in Eastlake. The whole space will seat 40 people but can also work for a standing-room situation if you have 45." - aimee rizzo
"Eastlake’s Pomodoro is an intimate Italian restaurant, with skillfully crafted pasta plates (pork belly linguini alla carbonara) and several excellent gluten free and veggie options. It’s also fortunate enough to have a garage located in its building, with free parking and an ample amount of spaces." - Gabe Guarente
"Eastlake’s venerable Italian restaurant features three-course brunch meals for takeout, including pastries, brioche French toast with honey bourbon bacon, spaghetti carbonara with morels and duck egg, and lemon panna cotta. There are also mimosa, bellini, bloody mary, and spritz kits." - Gabe Guarente
"After closing on March 16 when Washington's stay-at-home order began, this venerable Eastlake Italian spot pivoted to takeout and delivery — the first time Serafina has offered delivery in its nearly 30-year history. Known for multi-course pasta meals, attentive service, a special-occasion atmosphere and a courtyard for warm-weather dining, the restaurant had previously offered only limited takeout. The current online menu mixes items from both sibling restaurants (including Serafina's lamb and pork lasagna), plus take-and-bake options (prime rib, pork, chicken and vegetable skewers), wine, beer and pantry items; cocktail kits are expected by the end of the week. Owner Christian Chandler says the two restaurants received 15–20 calls a day asking for takeout, which prompted the shift, though it remains unclear when dining rooms will be able to reopen." - Gabe Guarente
"After being closed since January 14 for renovations, Serafina in Eastlake has reopened with a refreshed look—new lighting, seating, utilities, and some more modern touches—while the menu remains the same, continuing to serve handmade pasta and Italian-influenced small plates. There will be an extended happy hour on February 22 from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. with discounts on prosciutto risotto fritto, veal and pork meatballs, beer, wine, cocktails, and other items." - Gabe Guarente
