Serenite - Medina

My wife and I made our first visit as an early anniversary night, and we had the best time. The food was raised and the atmosphere was romantic, but what made the evening so unforgettable was the service. On the one hand, everyone on the staff, especially Sherry, was thoughtful, gracious and friendly, so we felt extremely pampered. But the open secret is that the restaurant is part of a culinary school for people in the recreation of addiction where they find their fine crew. There is something that moves deeply to know an exquisite meal like this also helps someone to give a second chance. We can't wait back!

What a hidden gem! Found this restaurant on OpenTable looking for a reservation on a Saturday night. Was intrigued by the positive reviews and backstory of the restaurant/charity. The mission alone is reason to go here, but luckily the food is amazing too! We had the goat cheese tart to start; it could be a meal itself and was a great start to the meal! For entrees we had the salmon and sea bass special. My wife enjoyed the salmon, but the sea bass stole the show (one of the best entrees I’ve ever had. Cocktails and dessert both exceeded expectations too! The service was great; attentive staff and the chef even came out to meet us and discuss some upcoming events (bourbon and cigar BBQ sounds amazing… Overall, highly recommended; we’ll be back to experience more of the amazing menu and service!

I love the concept of this restaurant. Helping those in recovery with a second chance and re-world training. Do not let any of that deter you from coming in, if I did not know about the story, I would have never known. Walking in the door, you see a cozy high-end atmosphere. Looking over the menu, more of the same, fine French cuisine. The food is fantastic, service top notch and good drinks. We both had steak, Filet and Strip, with mac cheese and risotto for sides. Everything was cooked perfectly and seasoned well. For desert, we shared crème brulee and it lived up to the rest of the dining experience. Becky was our server and she was wonderful. She was very attentive, gave good suggestions and took great care of us. We will be back to explore more of the menu. As I mentioned before, if you did not know the wonderful story of this restaurant, you would never know. We had an amazing fine dining experience....Thank you Serenite!

This was our first and certainly not last visit. Aside from the important work help others in their recovery process the food was amazing and staff from top to bottom top notch. Rarely do I give 5 stars but Serenite earns it.

This has to be one of the best establishments around. From its mission of giving those in recovery a skillset to make something of themselves, to the phenomenal food and staff, you couldn't do any better. My waitress was lovely and we even had the head chef and GM ask about our meal. I will apologize for the pictures as the room was dimly lit, but I had the French Onion Soup, Braised Short Rib and Creme Brulee. Get the French Onion Soup if there is anything you take away from this review. I will definitely be back! I wish all of you working here well and great success.
