I recently decided to take the boss to lunch. We work nearby. Tiring of Subway, other fast food joints, and the acquired taste of Greek food at Pita Express, we dropped in on Serena's. What a delightful experience. First of all, I read another review that inferred there isn't much business. If you want to see a crowd similar to... more

Although friends had recommended this place for lunch, we finally made it out for dinner and made a meal of shared appetizers. The grilled meat skewers were nicely seasoned and the hummus was very creamy and delicious. A decent collection of beer, wine and cocktail specials. Staff were friendly and efficient. Seems like a nice place to hang out, with... more

Love Serena's after work. Staff is super friendly. Drink specials everyday. Live music sometimes on Thursdays. Great patio for outside seating. The pinchos & potato skins are my favorite appetizers. Free wifi. more

Serena's is my favorite spot for a relaxing lunch away from work while staying close to RTP. We typically go once or twice a week and I never get bored with the menu,..probably because they're always playing with new creations to delight our tastebuds. You can not go wrong with the Avacodo BLT (add Fontina cheese!), the seasonal salads are... more

I had a lunch meeting at Serena. The restaurant is very popular around lunch-time. There was a short wait in line. We were able to look over the menu while standing in line and made it to the front of the line in a couple of minutes. The hostess took our order immediately and gave us numbers to place wherever... more

I work in the area, and I had heard about this restaurant, just general comments. I stopped by around 1:30 in the afternoon for some take-out. The menu was boring, I thought this would be a kind of Southwest - Tex/Mex restaurant from the previous ads. However, Salads and sandwiches were basically the only things on the menu. I tried... more

We're always disappointed when guests leave unsatisfied at our restaurant. This poster's comments were from 2006 and many things have changed including the staff, menu and procedures. But one thing has *always* remained consistent: We want guests to leave satisfied. Serena has quite a good reputation in the RTP area and we've earned it through good food and good service....
