From service to food to ambiance to parking - Cena delivers!
We ordered the seafood risotto and chicken parm. Both were delicious! My date had the risotto which he described as divine and That there was nothing even close to this anywhere in Delray. He ate every drop (and that is not his usual). I had the chicken parmesan and pasta with butter and garlic. Wow! The chicken was tender and the coating delish! The pasta was al denté and had just the right amount of garlic. I too ate more than my usual and loved every bite!
Parking was awesome. They had a valet which was great.
The dining room reminded both of us of Italy with its crisp white table cloths and wooden floors. We ate out on the porch which was enclosed and surrounded by plenty of greenery to cover the white fence. Quite charming!
Thanks to ALL for the outstanding service a and deliciously wonderful food. We will definitely be back!
Went with family on Christmas eve, not the best time to go to a restaurant. This is the former Cena Modern Italian Restaurant.
Our server has been here for 2weeks and was ditzy and clueless.
We ended up being there for 3 hours and with our 4 year old granddaughter.
The food is pretty good but overpriced. Started with FRITTO MISTO,
Lightly fried calamari, shrimp and vegetables with marinara sauce , just ok. Also had the PARMIGIANA DI MELANZANE ,fried eggplant, marinara sauce, mozzarella, fresh basil, and grated parmigiano cheese, didn't like it.
For mains, I had the LINGUINE VONGOLE ,linguine with clams in a white wine sauce, garlic and parsley, actually pretty good. My wife had the FETTUCCINE BOLOGNESE ,homemade fettuccine in a fresh meat ragout (beef & veal), also very good.
We found this restaurant by accident, we walked in and we were greeted by the owner. Seated and had a spectacular dinner with equal service! Highly recommended!!
Under new ownership, we had a fabulous dinner experience at Cena Cucina! The restaurant decor is light and beautiful. We loved the cozy feel. The seafood special and pasta was amazing! There is an exceptional wine list and service was top notch. Highly recommended!
Great experience! Had dinner here over the weekend. Loved it! Food was fabulous and service the best. Outstanding wine selection. Gnocchi was great, veal chop special was outstanding! Try the cheesecake for sure. A real taste of Italian food and wine.
My mom and I had dinner here two nights in a row. Both meals were delicious- the flavors just worked really well. The service was very good. Liked the ambiance and the wine list.
I went here with my family as well as with two friends and I must say it did not disappoint. There was friendly, attentive service (although maybe a smile or two wouldn't have hurt) and a pleasant ambiance, mostly thanks to the music selection.
The convenient parking nearby was a big help too.
Now for the food. All the dishes were excellent: well prepared and well presented. Personally, I had a delicious caprese salad with gnocchi (al dente, as they should be). The wine selection was also quite satisfying.
Overall, highly recommended!
Looking for a delicious authentic homemade Italian meal? This is the place for you! Lovely intimate restaurant with impeccable service. Food? To die for!!! The owner Paolo is a gracious host with attention to every detail of his restaurant. Make sure to visit this gem!
