I have been wanting to go hear since the movie Serendipity came out! It was on my bucket list and I am SO glad I got to go this trip to NYC. It was even more whimsical and fabulous than I imagined and the frozen hot chocolate was everything I had hoped it would be and more! I ordered the Thai salad and it was extremely fresh and delightful, huge portion with loads of flavor. My friend had a beautiful BLT that she loved and we both had the best time enjoying the brightly decorated room upstairs. We made a reservation and got seated quickly when we arrived. There is lots of fun stuff you can parooz around while you wait, all super colorful. I seriously can’t wait to go back!! The staff was so friendly, kind, attentive and efficient. I ordered what my girl recommended and had no regrets because it was SO yum! I appreciate y’all so much and the space is wonderful, enchanting and a party all at once!

What a great experience. I took my daughter for a 16th birthday meal. The food was lovely, the atmosphere and aesthetics beautiful and our server was great and very attentive. Definitely recommend. You must try their famous frozen hot chocolate!

Serendipity in NYC is such a fun and memorable experience! The decor alone sets the tone—playful, whimsical, and full of personality—making it feel like a true destination rather than just a restaurant. What really stood out, though, was how gluten-free friendly the menu is. There are plenty of options, and the staff is knowledgeable and accommodating, which makes dining there feel stress-free and inclusive.

The service was excellent from start to finish—warm, attentive, and genuinely happy to help with menu questions or modifications. Add in the lively vibe, delicious food, and that signature Serendipity charm, and it’s easy to see why this place is so beloved. A must-visit whether you’re gluten-free or just looking for a joyful NYC dining experience!

Definitely a 10 out of 10 that’s including the staff, the people, the food, the dessert and my experience there. First time going great experience definitely will come again! It was my birthday and my server along with other customers sang happy birthday to me it felt very nice 🙂

Food and desserts are big portions so prepare to share; very fully. Would definitely like to try their tea party option next time.

We had the Buffalo Chicken Bites and Potato Skins as appetizers which were excellent. The kids sliders and Cheese Burger were amazing. We landed the desert dismount with the Peanut Butter Frozen Hot Chocolate, Can’t Say No Sunday, and the Kid’s Cake batter Scoop. We’ve been here multiple times over the past two decades and Serendipity 3 always delivers. Grateful for landmarks that we can share with our kids. Such a fund place for a multi-generational memories.

My first time having the iconic frozen hot chocolate! 11 out of 10! This thing is fantastic. Thought maybe the chocolate would be too rich, but it was perfect. That whipped cream I think is homemade – the perfect fluff. I got it “to go” because I was pressed for time and it was phenomenal. And it slurped through the straw just fine. I went around 4 PM and it was BUSY.

This was very underwhelming and not worth $18 dollars, didn’t even taste good. If I knew the hot chocolate would come out I wouldn’t get it. But gratefully the management was super understanding and allowed us to take it off as we only had one sip of it.

The server was extremely kind and professional I have no complaints regarding my service with him.

The kids portion ice cream was perfect .

I enjoyed the grandmas chicken sandwich was amazing I added cheese to mine.

My kids enjoyed the grown up Mac and cheese the hostess explained the kids Mac cheese and regular menu Mac and cheese are different. So we got that one.

We had a really good experience here and would definitely come back one of the main reasons I would come back was managements understanding and the server being kind.

It was so filling, the staff were very nice, and I got a souveneir spoon with my frozen hot chocolate, which they are famous for. Everything was so overpriced. They had a Golden Opulence Sunday that cost freaking one thousand dollars! I would love to try it sometime, I just don’t have that type of money. It was very good though. If you get the frozen hot chocolate, I recommend eating the hot chocolate part, the whipped cream is so thick and filling.

Food is fine with very large portions, but the frozen hot chocolate is the real star. Fun, nostalgic atmosphere and a classic NYC experience that is worth visiting at least once.

Food was mediocre at best. Everything on the menu is significantly overpriced for the quality of what you get, especially when we didn’t finish 1/3 of our food because there ended up being a mouse running around our table. The star of our visit was our amazing server Gio! He was so friendly, served with a huge, warm smile, and was hustling the whole time. 10/10 recommend Gio!
