My husband and I, along with our 1.5-year-old daughter, visited SER after hearing good things from friends. We’re big fans of Spanish cuisine, so we were excited to give it a try.
The restaurant is easy to find, located right on the street with a spacious layout. They have both indoor and outdoor seating — we chose outdoors since we had our baby with us, and they provided a high chair, which was very convenient. The overall environment feels great for family gatherings or business dinners, with plenty of space for larger groups.
We tried a selection of tapas and entrées. The flavors were good and authentic, but not particularly memorable or standout compared to other Spanish restaurants we’ve tried. Nothing was bad — just not the type that makes you think “wow, we must come back just for this dish.”
Service was friendly and efficient, which we really appreciated.
Overall, a solid choice if you’re looking for Spanish food in a comfortable setting with good service — especially for groups.

My girlfriends and I were in the mood to try something new for dinner and ended up at Ser Restaurant!
From start to finish, the service was top-notch, and the food was absolutely incredible. We ordered from the special Restaurant Week menu, which, surprisingly, isn’t part of their regular offerings (a real shame, because every bite was delicious!).
We’re already planning our next visit to explore the regular menu. If it’s anything like what we had, we’re in for a treat!

The food here is EXCELLENT. So much so I had dinner there with friends and then a board meeting for my business. Our wait staff both times were on it! And the lentil soup was divine. I can’t recommend any of the vegetable dishes at the bottom of the menu enough! The capers in the carrots! Yes please, and the potatoes, oh my.
Parking is a PITA but the restaurant will validate.

We got the Punta Umbria gin and tonic and the marquis Manhattan. Then we did small plates of shrimp, bacalao fritters, tortilla, and blue cheese, and had dessert of the Monchego cheesecake and Café bonbon.

I celebrated my birthday here and given late classes, was in close to closing. However, our server was SUCH a swell guy. Did not rush us at all, knew the specials of the week better than I know the menu at my own job, and everything was PERFECT! Even the bussers were super friendly and engaging, very well-mannered. Lastly, the main reason I came was because I heard their cocktails were out of this world and TRUST my girls and I WILL be back for another night

We had a great dining experience at this Spanish restaurant. The food was good, especially the paella, similar to the one we had in Spain. The drinks paired well with the food, and the place was well-lit with natural sunlight, making it inviting. The service was decent, and the restaurant was clean and well-maintained. However, the overall price felt a bit expensive for the portion sizes. Nonetheless, we were satisfied with our experience overall.

The food is absolutely on another level. Exquisite! Our waiter Ivan was very knowledgeable about the menu and attentive all night. We ordered the seafood Paella, Duck with mushrooms risotto. Rock Fish, mashed potatoes and a salad. We also got a fre dessert to share. I will definitely be going back.

Had clams and shrimp as an appetizer, nothing to special about. Also had a mushroom dish with egg that was flavorful and potatoes. I must say I haven’t had such a great tasting Paella since I went to Spain!! It was so good. The ginger soda is fresh and the ginger in it wasn’t overwhelming for my taste bud. So I would also recommend trying the soda.

We haven’t been in over 4 years and glad to see the quality hasn’t changed. We had croquetas and patatas bravas for appetizers. Had the shared pan of paella and Dover sole. The sole was immersed in a very lovely sauce with Baena olive oil. The sole was deboned table side as well. We took the cheesecake (Manchego), churros, and flan for take out desserts. All tasted great.
