★ 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1We had the joy of hosting our wedding at Sergio’s Missione, and it was truly everything we imagined and more. Every time visit we are struck by the warm atmosphere, stunning decor, and impeccable attention to detail.The staff went above and beyond to make our day seamless and special. From planning to execution, every interaction was thoughtful, professional, and caring. Special thanks to Carlos who brought our small vision of an intimate wedding to life.The food as always, was in one word, unforgettable. Every dish was flavorful and artistic; our guests are still raving about the pistachio cake for dessert. Our food wasn’t just a meal, it was an experience.The space itself provided the perfect romantic ambience, intimate lighting, elegant table settings, and a layout that encouraged laughter and conversation. It felt like we were transported someplace else for the day—our day!We can’t thank Sergio’s Missione enough for turning our vision into reality. It was the perfect setting for the most important day of our lives, and we will cherish the memories forever. If you're considering a restaurant wedding or an event space to make unforgettable memories, look no further; this place is pure magic.With love and gratitude,Mike and Karina
June 09 · Karina SmithThis was my first time I had visited Sergio’s. I had heard about Sergio’s through a family member who visits frequently and always speaks very highly of the food. I ordered the chicken francese while my husband had the orecchiette. I have to say that my francese was among the best I’ve ever. My husband also really enjoyed his dish. Everyone was very friendly especially the hostess who was super sweet and kept checking on us. I really love the ambiance. The dining room is decorated in such a way to make you feel as if the only people that are dining there are you and your party; it’s a very private experience. I think I have found a new favorite restaurant. I plan on returning for my birthday later this month. I can’t wait.
April 06 · V SWe were at Sergio's for my father's repast lunch on Saturday and it could not have been more perfect. The food was amazing, the staff supportive, attentive and extremely adaptable. We reserved for 25 and showed up with 45 and they were able to accommodate seamlessly. My father would have approved
March 24 · Michele ParisiFew places impress me on my first visit, I got them by chance. Exceptional service and very attentive. The delicious food. I'll be back, I promise.
June 12 · Lebris Carrabbia4 stars for 4 reasons1. The carbonara is delicious! Creamy! Creamy and delicious! Must order!Riceballs are good! Texture makes it good! Creamy as well. Cesar salad delicious as well. The bolognese is good as well but wasn’t as good as other dishes. Fresh and quality.2. Price is fair for good Italian place3. Quantity is a lot for what you pay.4. The decor is nice and the host is so nice.Minus 1 star for a couple things. The filet mignot tips were just ok and the waiters did come across rude at times.They don’t sell vine so bring your own vine. Easy to find parking.
