International flavah. Bold brash flavors. Authentic ethnic cooking. Journey through the cuisines of Hungary and the Dardanelles. Travel to Thailand, to Malaysia, to Morocco. Experience Celtic Cuisine reinvented (pork shoulder, slow-roasted in Guinness Stout or Meditteranean-influenced Bangers and Mash with apple-fennel sausage and balsamic reduction). Return home with a soul-satisfying American Meatloaf wrapped in bacon and spiced with adobo-apricot glaze.
Everything a neighborhood restaurant should be. Artists, doctors and dot-comers. Carpenters, musicians and fathers. Birkenstocks and Blahniks alike are welcome. Serrano is Old City's longest running loft party. A place to visit, kick back and enjoy; to bring friends and make friends. Comfort. Warmth. Home.
