Sérénité Restaurant & Culinary Institute

We had dinner at Serenité in Medina last night to celebrate New Year’s Eve, and it was hands down our favorite meal of the year. This was our fourth or fifth visit, and they continue to impress every single time. Even with a reservation mix-up that I caused, they were incredibly accommodating and were able to fit us in without issue. I had the duck breast special and it was absolutely delicious, truly melt-in-your-mouth good. Our guest ordered the walleye, which was cooked perfectly with a crisp crust and tender, flaky center. The cocktails were also excellent, well balanced and full of flavor. For dessert we shared the torte and the tart, and both were spot on. The service was fantastic. Our waitress was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable, and the rest of the staff was just as welco

I had the opportunity to preview Serenite's reopening tonight and it did not disappoint! My steak was the perfect temp. The drinks were tasty and beautiful. Service was prompt, knowledgeable and friendly. I brought some teenagers with me and they were instagramming the dishes they looked so pretty. I wouldnt have changed a thing. The cheese dip appetizer was suprising and I highly recommend it. I cant wait to return and try another dish. We are so lucky in Medina to have a few amazing local restaurants and this is at the top of the list for me.

This is the "Old Stagecoach," as I knew it, built in 1858. Interesting history. Exsquite atmosphere, but relaxed attire. Excellent everything. Attention to detail is acknowledged. The woodwork is as divine as the food. Serenite has creative flavors that will surprise and not disappoint. Attached a picture of the fish fry we had during Lent and historical photos. The coleslaw is one of the two best I have ever had, no mayo. The Jo's-Jo's are something completely different and delicious. They make their own tartar sauce too. I've never had anything like it. I asked for an extra cup. Normally I don't like whipped butter, but WoW. It will blow you away. Look forward to going back to try the other enticing menu items, AND they change seasonally. When the weather accommodates, I'm sure I'll be s

Serenity is truly one of Medina’s greatest assets. As a REALTOR®, I love bringing clients here, and as a local, I’m here just as often with friends. The food is consistently excellent, the atmosphere is welcoming, and the location so close to the Medina Square makes it the perfect spot to gather. The servers are always friendly and genuine, and I can honestly say I’ve never had bad service. Walking through the door and seeing familiar faces makes it feel like home. We almost always see Tony Bianco! Serenity being both a restaurant and a culinary institute, with staff made up of people in recovery, makes the experience even more meaningful. You’re not just having an amazing meal... you’re supporting lives being rebuilt, and you can feel that purpose in every interaction.

Amazing Visit - greeted at the door with a smile. Kipp was awesome and checked on us to make sure we had everything we needed. We brought our little guys and they had a great time. I can’t wait for our next visit!
