Cena Modern Italian - Delray Beach

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!

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.

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!
