We went there last night for my in-laws 50th wedding anniversary. 20 of us there, in the booked room at the back.

1. Outstanding authentic Spanish food. Nothing like the typical kiwi interpretaciones sin sabor. Gorgeous choices, all full of flavour, complexity and con amor! The duck was perfect, the langoustines divine, and the Paella full of beautiful spice and attitude. 5 out of 5 for the food!
2. Perfect service. The two women that run the floor were gracious, fast, and knowledgeable about the food and wine pairing. YOU MUST TRY the Sin Palabras wine– expensive but well-worth it. IT will leave you Speechless (sin palabras) and it is the best white wine I have had in New Zealand, hands down. Gracias Espana for such a perfectly complex and cheerful wine!
3. Delightful owner. Serafin is a master at his craft, friendly, and obviously loves what he does. His food is so tasty, and reasonably priced, and the whole staff made it seem like a table of 20 loud family members, plus a restaurant full to the brim, was no big deal, we were warmly welcomed, beautifully fed, our noise and kids enjoyed by the staff, and farewelled with thanks and requests that we come back!

I would go there again and again if I could, but as I live in Wellington it’ll be a special treat when we’re in Auckland. Aucklanders, take advantage of what a gem this is, and give Serafin and the staff your gracias por la comida increĆ­ble!

A group of us went on a Tuesday night. The staff at Serafin were friendly and the place was busy. While we enjoyed our tapas there are better available in the area. Not sure if it is only on a Tuesday, but we had to leave at 10pm.
Easy parking across the road.

This new tapas restaurant close to Eden Park is in a beautiful purpose-built construction. Having walked past several times and meaning to try it out, a Herald article about the owner’s problems with getting a liquor licence (due to a couple in the neighbourhood who made a complaint about potential drunks) finally spurred us to go in. The seafood paella and desserts (we have tried all of them) are absolutely divine, and we have already returned several times!
