I had the pleasure to purchase catering from Serafina's pizza tonight and it was absolutely superb . The chicken marsala, garlic knots, and penne pasta, was subtended, and only outdone by superb service by the staff. Grateful and thankful for having you in our backyard. You guys are tremendous and thanks for all you do for the St. John's area!!! Manny Marguy read more

There is a lot of debate back-and-forth on different sites that provide reviews for local pizza. On a quest to try several to find which one I like the best. I always find myself coming back to Serafina. I haven't found one better yet. The pizza is tremendous. It's authentic New York style pizza. The owners are great and very friendly. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great pizza, especially authentic New York style. read more

Serafina absolutely delivers. The food is fresh, hot, and comes out fast, but what really sets this place apart is the quality and customer service. The Meatball Vodka Sauce Parm was quite possibly the best sandwich I've ever had--perfectly cooked, incredible flavor, and seriously memorable. Family got the Meatlover Calzone and a few slices which were equallt on point. Staff was friendly and efficient, and the overall experience was top-notch. This place is a must-try and will definitely be a repeat stop. read more

Very disappointed with the food we received from Serafina. Normally, we enjoy their food and have never had any issues, but this experience was unacceptable. We ordered a large pie with half pepperoni and roasted red peppers and the other half plain cheese. The order was made incorrectly, with roasted red peppers placed on the cheese side. While we believe this was a simple miscommunication and not a major issue, we picked the peppers off and moved on. The bigger problem came with the second box. We ordered three different slices. Two buffalo chicken slices were fine, but the Hawaiian slice was poorly made. It was literally a slice of plain cheese pizza with cold ham and pineapple thrown on top and served as is. When we questioned it, we were told that no one orders that pizza and they were just trying to accommodate us. The owner, Vinny, then got on the phone and was extremely dismissive. He made the comment, "We can't hit a home run every time," and mentioned they were swamped because the Jaguars game had just ended. At no point did he take responsibility or show any concern about correcting an obvious mistake. I could even hear him in the background saying, "What do they want me to do? That's how we make the pizzas." That response was disappointing and unprofessional. Mistakes happen, but how they are handled matters. Unfortunately, this was handled very poorly. Needless to say, we will not be ordering from Serafina again. They have lost a loyal customer. read more

My husband and I picked up a supreme pizza, which has pepperoni, jalapeño (added on), mushroom, bell peppers, and onions. It was delicious! Served very hot so still warm by the time we got home. The crust was very tasty at the ends but wimbly at the other end. I would have liked to be crustier so you can hold it without it falling apart. read more

Being a Southern boy, I was filled with new and exciting experiences. I wish I had the experience to make comparisons between this and that but I don't. Every piece of food I got was outstanding but couldn't be compared because I never had food that tasted like that before. Words cannot describe the dining experience I had. To make it even better, the staff as well as the owner made a point to make the "New Guy" feel special. If you want an outstanding meal and a new friendship get over there ASAP. read more

Really good authentic pizza. Super crispy crust on the bottom and edge I got the lunch deal. Two really big pizza slices and a drink for $8.40. Great deal super nice lady at the front and chill pizza place what's not to love for the price and taste. read more

We're born and raised Long Islanders, and both worked in Manhattan for years before escaping from the People's Republic of New York and landing in Jacksonville. We've eaten in the best pizzerias in the New York area (and not in the touristy spots in Manhattan). Some really excellent places are in Queens, Southern Connecticut, and on Long Island. Just to say, we know what we like when it comes to pizza. There are only a few places in the Jax area that we think are worth patronizing for their pizza, and our recent first visit to Serafina's got them added to our list. For me, its all about the crust and Serafina's has got that down. Toppings were excellent too. Definitely a place to try if you haven't discovered it already. read more

Inconsistent is the key word. A few years ago our household looked forward to this treat and would devour every delicious bite. After awhile it became inconsistent with the food being just ok (it's never been horrible). Lately it's just ok and not worth the price tag...literally have family saying they would prefer Pizza Hut or Dominos. Service is fine, mainly just take your money and hand you your box. read more

The food is really great and you can buy a whole pie or pizza by the slice. They have both Sicilian and NY style pizza. Definitely worth the visit. read more

Now I have a go to for when I'm in town and need an eggplant parm fix! The food and service are outstanding!

We came in after attending the players championship, and we were quite hungry from the day! They bring Brooklyn to Jax! The pizza, the calzones, the meatballs and the hero's are plentiful and so tasty! And don't forget the authentic cannoli for dessert! the staff is super friendly and we will be back very soon! read more

I really don't understand the hype with serafina pizza.. it wasn't bad but it wasn't great. Lacks flavor big time! The white pizza was so bland, the ricotta was rubbery and wouldn't even separate with your hands.. The sausage and mushroom was good though the mushrooms are canned and had major flop. No garlic or seasoning at all on either pizza. read more

Small strip mall pizza place. Let's talk. Looks wise: the place is what it is - given it's a small space in a strip mall. Nine tables inside, two outside. A walk-up counter. Staff: (possibly the owner) Very welcoming, helpful and friendly and she brought the food out to the table for us when it came up. So, while it's not wait staff, they are good anyway. Wifey ordered an almost Margherita style slice (tomato/cheese/basil) and a Grandma's Style (same type, different crust). I got a slice of BBQ chicken and a Ricotta white. All four were pretty freakin' tasty! Two slices and a fountain drink for $10.50. Good deal, great food, friendly service. Can't ask for much more. read more

Feels like you're in manhattan. Awesome friggin pizza. Place is always packed for a reason. Need I say more?

LOVE this NY pizza place! Best pizza place I've found since moving to FL. The dough is thin but not too thin, perfect to fold and shovel in! Sauce is super tasty and I love getting the pizza with spicy pepperoni and jalapeño. Also tried their sub and it's super filling and delicious. This is my go-to pizza joint! I usually order to go but eaten inside a couple of times. The place is small but there are a few seats. Clean and very much reminds you of NY! Staff is very friendly and efficient. You must try! read more

Oh look...another "authentic" New York Pizza place! It's all downhill from here folks. Being an "authentic" born & raised New Yorker, nothing disappoints me more than these subpar pizza joints pretending to be like a NY pizzeria! Undercooked, overpriced, and bland tasting toppings, crust and sauce. In other words the whole pie was bad. You know those Elvis impersonators that think they're Elvis? Well, Serafina's is a poor impersonator for NY style pizza. I'm only surprised their not trying to sell me a "genuine" piece of the Brooklyn Bridge! In conclusion, this is mall quality food at best. Shame on you Serafina's read more

Food is perfect. Got a large cheese pie and a rice ball. This is 100% classic NY pizza. Service was fast and good. Everything was fresh.

Let's talk about NY style pizza in Florida. It's hard to find. We have a few places that we love, but Serafina's was suggested to us, so we decided to give it a try. The storefront is small with a counter, and small seating area. There are pizzas by the slice on display and then the rest of the space is devoted to the kitchen. We ordered a pie, half cheese and the other half with some roasted red peppers and eggplant. It came quickly, despite how busy with orders the restaurant was. Crust was thin and crispy. Sauce was nice (I like my sauce a little lighter and this was good). Just enough cheese (I know, is there ever enough?), and served hot enough for a good cheese pull. It's a little farther than I would go for a pizza, but a great option when we are in the mood! read more

Personal pizza preference is a very important food choice in many people's lives. What is one guy's favorite slice may be some else's worst nightmare. The choice could be the crust, the sauce, the cheese. And don't get me started about the toppings. . . Ok, pizza is kind of a big deal for me. And when friends tell me that a certain place has "the best pizza!" well gosh darn it I'm gonna get over there and check it out. For several friends Serafina's Pizzeria is that place. And I can definitely see why! It's a little place located on Racetrack Rd. A bit of a hike for those of us who live out at the beach, but certainly worth the drive. The walls are covered with New York memorabilia which is a cute touch. Not many tables, but I was there on a Tuesday night so had no trouble getting a seat. Their take out and delivery business was impressive. A steady stream of pizzas and other food going out the the door and you can tell folks in the area really like this place. To me a big reason that Serafina's is a great restaurant are the people running the place. Super friendly husband and wife that were thrilled to learn that my friend and I were first time diners. The woman co-owner (and I'm sorry I didn't get her name) took her time explaining the various pizzas and what our choices were. More importantly when another customer pointed out that the topping on the pizza they got was not what they wanted, she quickly said it was her fault and made them a new pizza. Plus a free dessert for their troubles. Their customer service shows they truly care about their brand and their product! And the pizza? I tried three different slices; a sausage slice, the New Yorker (like a Margherita) and a cheese Sicilian slice. The Sicilian was good, but I thought the thicker crust could be just a touch crispier. The sausage slice was great. Worked well with the sauce and the cheese and the crust was perfectly crispy. To me though the star slice was the New Yorker. The pomodoro sauce was a touch sweeter than the tomato sauce on the other slices and was amazing with the basic and mozzarella. Truly a really great slice of pizza. My friend ordered a whole pie to take some home for later. The pies are huge and he will be eating pizza for days! For many, pizza is life. If that's the case for you, Serafina's can certainly help you live! Trust me and try it! read more

Such amazing service. great good. Amazing cashier girls, so sweet and kind and helpful

I placed an order by phone and advise it would take an hour. When I arrived there were many others waiting for their pizza who had also placed their order an hour ago. Apparently they were down oven so they were experiencing longer turn around times. You can tell everyone working there was hustling to get the customers their orders. There were about two different groups who dined in. The dining room is rather small but they seem like they stay busy. read more

I ate here for dinner during the week with my parents and my toddler. I really enjoyed the garlic knots. I thought they were very girly which I really enjoy. The pizza was pretty good. We ate in store and didn't do takeout so it might be a little different, but we enjoyed it. It was pretty small in the inside. You could tell that they do a lot of takeout as opposed to eating inside the store. Overall cute and tasty little place.

I had seen a lot of good reviews for this pizza place on Race Track Road. Today, I decided to give it a try. It is located in a strip shopping center and has about 8 tables for indoor dining. Most of their business appears to be takeout, though. Service was friendly and quick. They have appetizers, salads, three entrees, and pizza. Pizza is sold by the slices or by the pie. I ordered a supreme pie. The toppings and sauce tasted good. However, the dough was the issue. It was either undercooked or too thin to hold the toppings. The two slices I ate kind of fell apart when I picked them up and took a bite. read more

their claim to fame is Brooklyn style Pizza. However I was born and raised in Brooklyn all of my life and lived in many different areas of Brooklyn and this pizza is far from the tase of the sauce, and cheese used is sub par and rubbery to say the least. Their pizza is sub par compared to other local pizza's restaurants in the area. The cost of their whole pie is $25.00 dollars for garbage. Their restaurant has the walls covered in pictures of Brooklyn baseball players and New Your Yankee ball players. That's their only connection to Brooklyn New Your because their pizza tastes fake. Sorry for this low rating but the truth is save your money and go somewhere else. read more
