Sereneco

Have been wanting to go here for a reeeeeally long time. Went on a low key Thursday night, not too busy at all. Service was quick and efficient and everything was well portioned and yummy. The tagliatelle was okay, but the star of the show was the Brussels sprouts and the Spring Risotto. Porn Star Martini was delicious. Okay second star of the show was the rosemary focaccia and whipped ricotta for appetizer. Would definitely come back for dinner/drinks and it has such a nice interior.

We visited Sereneco in Williamsburg and the food was truly delicious — we had the roast chicken breast, burger, whipped ricotta, oysters, and crispy eggplant, and every dish hit the mark. The burger, especially, was outstanding. That said, the service was underwhelming. I'd give it a 3–4 at best. The staff didn’t seem very welcoming or engaged — it felt like no one really wanted to be there. When you're spending over $100 for a meal, you naturally expect the atmosphere and service to reflect that level. Gorgeous place, amazing food, but the hospitality could use a serious lift.

Such a beautiful place, with delicious food and great cocktails! The burger is perfect, especially with additional caramelized onions 😍 and the porn star martini? One of the best I’ve had!🍸

Went to Sereneco for a solo dinner and had a fantastic experience. It was quite busy when I arrived around 5:30pm, but the service was quick and attentive throughout. I started with the charcuterie platter and a pornstar martini—both were excellent, especially the cocktail. For my entrée, I had the steak, which was absolutely delicious and cooked perfectly. Great atmosphere, great food—I’ll definitely be back!

their 2025 restaurant week deal is soo good at 3 courses with a wide range of options for $45, but the food & atmosphere is great here all the time. typically looks busier on the outside than it is inside

A great lunch/brunch spot in Greenpoint. We came here after a tumultuous experience at Ferox Athletics and were understandably famished. This breakfast burrito with added pork sausage seriously hit the spot. The eggs were cooked beautifully and had a super fluffy texture, the sauce was tangy and vibrant, and the vibes were amazing. Definitely come check this place out if you're ever in Greenpoint.

I enjoyed the cocktails and the wine selection. They are superb! The food is appealing and delicious. The service experience is excellent, all in a airy, bright, sunny comforting setting. Great happy hours menu too!

A must visit place in Greenpoint Brooklyn! Delicious burger and veggie sandwich. Fries top notch. The wait staff is on task and decor is chicque. It is very city styled and I loved it. Drinks looked amazing but we didn't drink there. Please go see them! Tell em Barsnobs sent ya!

The happy hour here was great. $10 cocktails and $2 oysters can't be beat. Excellent service and beautiful spot. Can't complain!

Its places like these that make you miss the previous establishments that came before. Another New American spot with whatever service, overpriced drinks, and a flat uninteresting food menu that makes you just want to pass. Lets end these half ass spot trends, which is becoming par for the course in GreenPoint

We came here for brunch after not receiving our grubhub order from a different breakfast spot. It was worth the short trek in the rain. The place was spacious with high ceilings. It felt really classy and clean. It wasn't busy on a Saturday AM as it was maybe 50 percent full. Maybe not even. We had the drip coffee and split the breakfast plate and pancakes with strawberry compote. I loved the simplicity of the breakfast plate. The bacon was really good. The eggs were too but on the saltier side. The pancakes hit the spot but they were not the best pancakes I've ever had. Overall, I would return here for brunch!

I came here around 9:30 AM and was told that they are only serving to go orders that included coffee, and pastries. I took a walk and circled back and noticed that there are folks already seated at the bar before 10 AM. I arrived at 9:55 and asked if it was OK to be seated. I was told it was OK. I ordered the grandpa's helper which was an apple cider drink (10/10) with some . I also ordered the ricotta cheese (10/10) and the squash soup (10/10) meals both delicious and hearty.

The restaurant is soo beautiful. It has high ceilings with giant lantern chandeliers giving a nice warm glow. The unfinished brick walls provide a classic Brooklyn rustic charm, yet the decor gives a romantic and classy vibe. However the food/drinks were disappointing. Ordering from the happy hour menu (Mon-Fri till 7 pm), the roasted eggplant dip (3/5) was okay. The dip itself was kind of bland, but the bread was toasted really well. I liked the Jalapeño Marg, but the orange wine flight was lacking. I initially really liked the dessert, Croissant Bread Pudding (2/5). The first couple bites were great, the warm toasty croissant was sooo yummy in contrast with the dense crème and maple syrup -- that was until I reached the center of the croissant and it was COLD. Clearly, it was previously frozen.

A gem in Greenpoint ~ from the aesthetic interior, to the quality food/drinks, highly recommend! I was doing a solo visit into Brooklyn and decided to treat myself with breakfast here. Service was good and the place was more empty at the time which created a calm experience, as the sun peaked through their windows lighting up the space. Would definitely come back!

Was so excited to try this place. Beautiful space. Nicely lit. Modern. Very quiet inside. Chill vibes. Food was amazing. Bloody Mary was delicious. Espresso Martini was nicely made. And pleasing to those who ordered it. Server was a little unsure about the menu and didn't explain the items well that we had questions about. But maybe she was new. However, everything that we ordered was tasty and satisfying. Will definitely be back to try more. He fingerling potatoes came with a very nice dip. I was dipping my braised rib panini in it. If you are ever in the Greenpoint area stop on in. You won't be disappointed!! Loved it here

My friend and I came here for brunch on a Saturday. We were able to get reservations the morning of and were seated immediately even though we arrived a bit early. The overall ambiance is great, but I have to knock a point off for not having gluten free bread. There are very limited gluten free options on the menu & with it being very common for restaurants to have gluten free substitutes for pizza, pasta, sandwiches, etc. these days, it was quite disappointing for my friend when she realized she wouldn't be able to try any of the popular items on the menu. We ended up ordering the shakshuka & burger (with no bun). The waiter allowed my friend to substitute the burger buns with potatoes which was nice. We paired our meals with iced chai lattes. Everything was tasty and well portion sized.

Really good food! Wonderful server and very clean! Glad to have found a new brunch place in Greenpoint! Looking forward to out next dining experience!

Enjoyed my first visit to Serenco earlier this summer! Made a reservation through Resy and was seated right away when I arrived. The interior is beautiful and full of natural light (ideal for brunch!) Lots of good looking things on their menu but I had to try the smoked salmon croissant, and it did not disappoint!

A beautiful cafe with lots of natural light, perfect for brunch. Food and drinks were okay, nothing to call out. Had high expectations for the the salmon croissant because of reviews but it could've been better, pretty bland in my opinion. Service is fine, it's a 3/5 for ambiance.

This place is excellent! The staff at Sereneco really took care of me and my buddy when we dropped in for brunch on a Sunday morning. The cold brew was excellent. I got the roasted eggplant pannini with a side of the best arugula salads I've ever head. The atmosphere was excellent and was hard to believe that the space was a former divey pizza bar from a former divey hot dog bar. You know those joints, buy a beer and get a free pie or hot dog. Kind of wild to think I saw that pop punk band RVIVR here as well as a bunch of doom metal bands some 10+ years ago and here I am now wolfing down a pesto eggplant sammie at the chef's counter. Anyway! Stop by Serenco. Would be a fun place to get brunch with the fam or a group of close friends.

OVERALL: 5/5 From the elegant space to the upscaled classic brunch items, Sereneco brings freshness to what would otherwise be just a classic ol' brunch. FOOD: must get items include Whipped Ricotta and the Smoked Salmon Croissant SERVICE: very busy during lunch, but staff tries very hard to keep smiles coming AMBIENCE: one of my favorite things about this restaurant. minimalist design with earthy colors immediately brings you into a zone

Such a cute restaurant in greenpoint! A few of my friends and I came here for a weekend brunch and loved it. The coffees and chai were great, and we ordered a few things for the table. The spring salad was super tasty with chickpeas, cauliflower, and veggies tossed with arugula and a lemon dressing. It had quinoa too and was very filling. The short rib panini was tasty but needed a little more flavor that I got by adding the sauce from the side potatoes and the salsa verde from the breakfast burrito. The side potatoes were smashed small potatoes that were super crispy and well-seasoned. The French toast was also a hit. Overall, a great and trendy brunch place!

I've been in a few times and had great experiences, including a couple of times eating dinner, as well as stopping by for cocktails and coffee. The coffee has always been surprisingly good. They use a very small roaster out of Bushwick called Loveless--used to be Spectrum. Even when I come in for dinner I start with a coffee because it is so good. Their cocktail menu is solid, with a good amount of variety. And it is a beautiful place, so is nice to come in for a drink or coffee whenever I can. Dinner has been great, and a pretty good value, with good portion sizes. I recently had scallops and it was one of the biggest portions I can remember having. The octopus was really good too. And the sweet potato spread was awesome, but I think that is off the menu now. Lentil stew was great; a nice vegan option. Crispy fingerling potatoes were incredible. Service has been very good. They have done a very good job with food allergies.

Came here recently and have tried both brunch and dinner. The place is so aesthetically pleasing. Love the colors, the pop of green on the walls, and the lamps. But we ain't here for interior design comments. We here for food thoughts. For brunch: i came here with friends on a sunday, i wasn't very hungry so i just got the ricottta and bread. I would come 10 times just for it. The bread to cheese ratio was for once, perfectly imperfect. By this i mean that you get lots of cheese and enough? bread. It was great. Dinner was also amazing. Got the ricotta and bread and the honeynut squash soup which was incredible. Then for main, i got the risotto and my boyfriend got the eggplant parm. Both were INCREDIBLE. I will say, after the apps we were pretty full so we ended up taking home some (love leftovers). Amazing place, love it, friendly service too!

Food and service was okay. Was honestly not expecting the soup to be thick and drizzled with olive oil. Also got a short rib panini which was flavorful and was served with a small portion of arugula salad. Beautifully decorated interior with lots of sunlight. Would recommend reserving a table for brunch as it can get busy

I was able to make a last minute brunch reservation back in October. The interior is beautiful and modern and seems to be fairly large. Service and food were overall a solid experience. It's a bit pricey but I enjoyed trying this place out. They also have a small window for people to order coffee from in the morning.

Pretty okay brunch spot in Greenpoint. The interior is beautiful and drenched in sunlight. Service was a bit lackluster but fast enough that I had no real complaints. I was feeling healthy and decided on the harvest grain bowl, but I sadly forgot to request no cheese and they sure do dump it on. It was good but I was looking forward to tasting the cinnamon maple dressing that came on it and I didn't get a hint of either of those flavors. Maybe the cheese drowned it out. I think I'd rather come here for dinner instead of brunch honestly! But not a bad choice for a date or with friends, but it was pretty loud at brunch time on a Sunday.

Overall rating: 4.9 An absolute must visit! I hope you're able to read this before Tuesday!! I went around 5:30 and one of the first few people that was there. I love the space and the staff was so so nice. I went for the jazz which I learned started at 6:30, so I do wish I went a bit later. It ends at 9:30 so you have plenty of time. The whipped ricotta is sooo good. I highly recommend! And they have an all night weekly happy hour which can't be beat! The asparagus got me back on the asparagus train because it was soo good. Going solo I really liked that I didn't feel rushed. Highly highly recommend.

Would definitely come back here again! It's the brunch spot I'd love to be a regular at. While there are not a lot of choices on the menu compared to the infinite options at diners, every dish we ordered delivered on flavor and portion size! They all packed a punch without making you feel like a potato (like after the usual brunch indulgence). Also, place decor is SUPER CUTE. Looks like it hasn't been finished building yet, which I think is the point. Servers were also cute and sweet. :D So definitely come here if you're looking for the instagram photos without sacrificing your wallet or your palette. What we got: Whipped Ricotta - 10/10 I COULD EAT THAT BREAD FOREVER. It's like a mixture between fried and grilled. Orange and pistachio are always great together Pancakes - 8/10 Good pancakes. Super soft and fluffy. I like their simple yet good fixings Wild Bowl - 8/10 Healthy and exactly what I wanted. I'm a sucker for healthy salads and fiber. Dressing was b o m b.

came here with a friend for brunch on a saturday before noon and it was good! we had reservations and though it was't crazy packed i'd def recommend you get a rez as it got pretty busy on our way out - no line though! food here is solid and the service was fine but the real winner is the ambiance. brightly lit on the corner of franklin and greenpoint ave, the restaurant is open, airy and clean. my friend and i shared the shakshuka, arugula salad with smoked salmon and pancakes with raspberry compote. shakshouka: 4/5 i've never met a shakshuka i did not like. the tomato sauce was flavorful and bright but i knocked a point off bc the yolks were completely overdone pancakes: 5/5 these were really great! equal parts dense and fluffy and the side of cream and syrup it comes with were perfect! i didn't love the compote and would go without next time arugula salad: 5/5 i really appreciated that they were able to accommodate the addition of smoked salmon instead of chicken despite it not being an option (they have another smoked salmon dish which is why we asked!). i enjoyed this dish a lot, the red rice was chewy, grapes were sweet, feta was perfectly tart and salty, and the vinaigrette that covered the arugula was not too much or heavy. i'd say this is a great brunch option and would definitely recommend it if you were looking for an open resty that's not too loud!

Great brunch in Brooklyn! The drinks were so good - the matcha was delish and not too sweet. We had the crispy fingerling potatoes, side of bacon, shakshuka eggs, breakfast burrito with pork sausage, and Smoked Salmon Croissant. Everything was great but would maybe skip the bacon next time was a little too crispy for my liking. The vibe of the restaurant was amazing, so bright and airy. Service was great too I'll def be back!

I made a reservation at the last minute before I go to the restaurant on Saturday. Amazingly, the host got me a table for two outside with my dog, so lovely to dine in with my furry friend. We got some snack with Shishito Peppers and Crispy Chickpeas. Follow up with Seared Sea Scallops and Grass Fed Boof Burger and got easy tipsy with Aperol Spritz. Food taste good, also good amount of it. Our servers were just ok, cooking time a bit slow. Vibe of the place is casual and easy. It is a crowded area but so much of life and joy.

The ambiance is nice and I'd go for a drink at the bar for a fun pre-din thing but the dinner we had was ok...the risotto dish was a bit too high in sodium for my taste as was the salmon which was cooked to perfection (melt-in-your-mouth tender in center) but the sauce was over-the-top for such a nice piece of fish! There were maybe 4 other parties for our wait staff but wee got no check-in on the meal, no smiles or anything really. The people brining the dishes and clearing our tables were prompt. The best items to order are the steak hangar and the desserts. Both the affogato and the bread pudding were A+. They had a pre-fixe menu for $48.re-reading the reviews I prob shoulda gone for brunch. Also there were flies and gnats flying around which was eh. It didn't help the server kept opening the side door, possibly serving others but I have no idea.

We had just finished up at vessel floats which put us in a calm, positive mood looking for a nice brunch to start our rainy Sunday on Jan 28th 2024. Per the recommendation of the staff at VF they told us we had to try Sereneco. Wow, that was a mistake. Our experience at sereneco was akin to a meme of Brooklyn. Pretentious, poor service where they seemed to treat you as if you were lucky to dine with them. The space was nearly empty at 9:30 AM when we arrived. They asked us if we had a reservation. We said no, and the hostess made this noise with her lips akin to sucking air quickly with through a straw as she informed us that SO MANY PEOPLE would arrive within the hour. Bet. They offered the bar as an option, my wife has had multiple knee surgeries and high tops are uncomfortable. Despite my wife expressing this, the hostess just stared at her then recommended the chefs bar (still a hightop). We took it because we were hungry--not because we wanted to. We then proceeded to order the mildly overpriced food and drink spending nearly $80 on a pretty simple avocado toast (more like guacamole toast as the scallion was far to pronounced and the very small side arugula salad was far too salty and peppery. The bloody mary was tasty and simple but not worth $14 and while the mixed berry bowl was delicious it wasn't $12 delicious. Maybe 8 at best. We had to ask for our check twice because the waitress was busy chatting it up with the manager (normally wouldn't care) but when your meal + tip was $82 bucks you expect a better overall experience. It felt like a $50 to $60 experience as i've had better experiences at a cheap diner. Overall would not recommend and will not be back. Oh yeah, and we spent 40 minutes there and the place never filled up. There were still low tables available. Where were ALL THOSE PEOPLE?

Excellent food! We have the charred octopus and chickpeas to start. Both were great. We had the scallops, braised short rib and burger for the 2nd course. Each one was divine! Great cocktails too (I recommend A Wise Choice).

I came here on cold cold cooollld evening. My friends were late so I had to kill time waiting for them. Since it was too cold I couldn't stay out long so needed to find a warm place. All the other bars were packed and the sober me didn't want to be part of that especially since I have plans later... Then I saw this place, looked empty but pretty in yellow. It did look like a great date spot for dining. So I decided to go here and sit my bar with a cocktail and stay warm. The hostess was friendly and the bartender was nice and attentive. I had a cocktail with kombucha in it. And it was refreshing. They didn't rush me to leave or anything even when the place started filling up which I was really thankful for since my party arrived over 25min later. I told this to my friends and we decided to go back here the same evening for food! We had octopus,meatballs and brownie for dessert. Everything was delicious, our waitress gave us recommendations and was super nice. And they let us stay back till almost midnight, we were the only ones there. Everyone left! So I asked the waitress what time they close and she told me it's whenever everyone leaves. 5/5 for the service!

Wow, this is such a nice new spot on the block! My boyfriend and I stopped by here for a happy hour drink as we waited for a reservation at another spot. We ordered two cocktails that were priced at ~$9/10, and were good and strong! As we were enjoying our cocktails there, the restaurant manager stopped by and offered a free entree to us. The kitchen had made an extra entree and they were nice enough to gift it to us. All in all, I would highly recommend checking this place out, especially their happy hour!

Came for dinner alone, got the fish. It was okay,l. Decent neighborhood restaurant for a meal

Cute spot in greenpoint for brunch. My husband had the short rib panini, which was perfectly toasted but needed a bit more short rib and some extra horseradish mayo. I had the arugula bowl with chicken. It was tasty and just needed a piece of bread or two to be truly filling (as it had far more arugula than grains). All in all, the flavors were good, as was the service, and the cocktails were well balanced. We would likely return.

Stopped here around an hour (no reservation, ~10min wait) before they stopped brunch service and were quickly seated after some confusion at the host stand. Service was a bit sparse, but understandable given we were one of the last customers to sit down before they stopped seating. One thing to note as we left (after chasing down a server for the check with is my daily NYC experience these days), there were easily 5-6 tables left eating but they locked the doors pre-maturely. We were locked inside, and when awkwardly trying to open the door, the baristas silently watched us without helping. We eventually unlocked it and left, but what a strange experience. FOOD: We ordered the arugula bowl and breakfast burrito. Both were surprisingly tasty and filling, especially the arugula bowl. It seems to have been slightly larger and generally well prepared than some of these earlier reviews, which hopefully means the restaurant is adapting to feedback. The arugula bowl is generally becoming a common brunch item, but the addition of red grape here added the perfect sweetness to the mix - I will definitely be ordering again, or attempting to steal the recipe for home! AMBIENCE: Very spacious and bright, with high ceilings and a generally bright open-air experience that I'd assume turns into a warm glow in the evening. Expect to speak up when the restaurant is full, but not to a degree that makes conversation impossible. The sound was noticeable, but not detrimental. Overall, impressed with our experience and would definitely come back with the assumption our service was simply just the madness of flipping from brunch to dinner.

Nice ambiance, good food, and friendly staff. I enjoyed the time my friend and I spent at the restaurant.

Service was excellent and attentive, regardless of whether you were sitting inside or outside. We sat outside. Good drinks, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic cocktails. Had a smattering of small plates-- ratatouille, ricotta, asparagus and brussel sprouts and let feeling satiated and satisfied. Would totally come back, great experience.

Always wanted to check this place out so I stopped by for dinner on a Wednesday night around 7. The bar was empty and slow probably because it was so cold outside. Ordered the ricotta and the pear salad. The ricotta is AMAZING and the bread came out so warm!!! Perfect. Good drinks, easy and elegant vibes. Pear salad was great but a little on the acidic side. Made for a great solo date night :)

The food was undercooked and had no discernable flavor. Was not happy with service either. Will not return!

Came here for dinner with a friend on a Thursday night. The interior is really cute with the lanterns on the ceiling. We ordered the whipped ricotta, seared octopus, ratatouille, the grass-fed beef burger, and the seared sea scallops. I enjoyed the whipped ricotta; it was creamy with a hint of sweetness and the foccacia bread was really good too. The seared octopus was small in portion and was overly salty as well. I'm personally not a fan of the fennel either. The ratatouille was standard, nothing too special about it. The burger had a nice slightly spicy sauce and was decent but the bread was a bit dry. The scallops were good and so were the grilled broccolini, definitely one of the better dishes. Overall, had an average experience. We were a little disappointed that they wouldn't move us to a bigger table when we had requested it since we had ordered quite a few dishes. Their reason was they tend to get really busy but during our entire time there, it was pretty empty, and no one sat down at the bigger table next to us. We noticed that there were other parties of 2 sitting at a larger table.

The vibes in here are major. Quite an exquisite ambiance with the occasional live music. The food is good and plated well. Service is great, friendly environment up in that jawn.

Came here for a birthday brunch with the spouse. PACKED!!! .... but she made reservations :D. Very active, very energetic, but never felt forgotten by the staff. They were just as attentive and helpful as ever. I went with buttermilk pancakes and the breakfast burrito. Superb. That sausage is the star of the plate. Potatoes were also really crisp and seasoned well. All in all a great birthday meal! I intend to make my way back if I am in the greenpoint area. Really nice staff, ambiance and food was really good.

If you have 2.5 hours to kill and two good friends to catch up with then this could be a good ambiance. For me, this will only be a last resort. We arrived and the floor was not quite full. Ordered promptly two burgers and a cauliflower steak (a piece of cauliflower with seasoning). Food took nearly 2 hours to arrive. Our server was kind and it was clear that the kitchen was out of order. We were brought two complimentary appetizers which was a nice gesture but for a $24 burger, you would expect that they could produce a decent product in under 2 hours. The food was decent but very comparable to the countless other "New American" chic restaurants popping up all over. Due to the kitchen not being able to function properly, I would not recommend this place. The server we had was great and the ambiance was welcoming but overall the experience was diminished due to the nagging feeling that it was insane our food was taking so long.

I ordered chocolate hazelnut pancakes yesterday for postmarked delivery and the pancakes came without any maple syrup, whipped cream or chocolate!!! I was so sad at this plain pancake atrocity that I didn't even take any pictures. Pancakes without syrup is just criminal

As a significant majority of people in New York City are fully vaccinated (and wear masks), I've been feeling more comfortable with indoor dining (I respect is a personal decision for each individual). I heard that Sereneco recently opened and since I was going to an outdoor movie screening earlier that evening in Greenpoint, I made a reservation at Sereneco after a quick look at their website. Tl;dr - The food is delicious, the design/decor is modern, and the service is excellent! Located on the corner of Franklin and Greenpoint, the restaurant is close by Transmitter Park and located within the converted Pencil Factory. Randomly, as my date and I were about to open the front door, a man who was walking by stopped us to say that we were in for a treat because the food was good (a positive sign). Upon entering, the host warmly greeted us and the server promptly seated us at our table. As we walked to the table, I appreciated the modern design of the space with high ceilings, wood furnishings, and overhead lanterns. All the food was tasty, which includes the carrots and the prawns. For me, the standout dish was the roasted half chicken, which was cooked just right to provide both a crispy and tender flavor. Throughout the evening, and we dined for a couple hours, the service was attentive. The restaurant had a steady flow of customers without feeling overly crowded, a healthy sign for a new spot opening during a pandemic. I highly recommend eating and/or drinking at Sereneco. You'll support a local business and enjoy yourself!

Great breakfast burrito - good drip coffee - friendly service - comfortable atmosphere

Two thumbs up!! Bacon was Wow!! Share you meal it is a lot of food! Staff was sweet too.

Not for the food but for the reservation/service. Was very very excited to try this place, made a reservation and then was called only to be told that they couldn't accommodate us at 9pm and essentially made me cancel my res. Why take the reservation in the first place - just ridiculous!

I only had a coffee at the bar, but! It my cortado was perfectly made and delicious. The interior was also absolutely gorgeous, bright and warm. The service was also great and quick/attentive, even as someone just having a coffee at the bar. They do also have takeaway coffee right inside the door, which is convenient if you are truly only looking for a coffee and pastry.

Used to come for just breakfast. turns out dinner is great! it's beautiful, quiet, tasty drinks and really great veggie stuff on the menu. The potatoes and the whipped ricotta are really really lovely. I didn't see it coming, but my wife and I have found our neighborhood spot!

I had a great experience at Sereneco! My partner and I ordered two small plates (octopus and whipped ricotta) and then shared the braised ribs and a side of polenta. Everything was SO YUMMY!! My only complaint is that the octopus plate was too small for the price... it was one tentacle, so not worth it in my opinion. The whipped ricotta was perfection, and the polenta tasted like a parmesan cloud. Finally, the braised ribs were incredible and well worth the price as they came with garlic mash, Brussels sprouts, and mushrooms. Cocktails were also really yummy - we had the mezcal negroni and the Greenpoint cocktail. As far as the ambiance, the tables are close, so it gets loud and hard to hear your date. It does help that the ceilings are high, which preserves the open and airy vibe. I would definitely return, and I felt this was one of the best new restaurants I've tried in my neighborhood of Greenpoint so far this year.

My experience with Sereneco was very disappointing. I made a reservation on a Saturday morning, however, we had to wait for over 30 minutes (with the reservation!! Unbelievable). Let's say that is OK even though should not be acceptable.... once we were seated, there was another 30-minute wait till our server brought water and took our orders. We saw other people arrived after us getting helped before us, which was unacceptable. I waived at our server a few times, but he just looked at us and did not come to take our orders. The ambiance is nice, but the service is not great. Their food was just OK which was another huge disappointment to us. I ordered their breakfast burrito, and it wasn't good at all. I believe this place is rated higher than it should be just because the interior is nicely decorated. For the service and food, I would rate ZERO.

Been here several times. Great vibe. Solid menu. Good value. The food never disappoints. We've tried the salmon, chicken, scallops & burger. All excellent. We also love the appetizers, especially the ratatouille, the whipped ricotta & the crispy brussels sprouts. We keep ordering the warm brownie with ice cream & raspberry sauce for dessert because it's sooo good. One of these days we'll try the bread pudding.
