My brother and I decided to try Serendipity after we saw the movie of the same name. We were so smitten with the movie, that we made a special day trip out to NYC (We're from Chicago) to eat there. While the wait is long, and the waitstaff is a bit pushy, this restaurant is completely worth the wait. After reading the reviews on here I can understand why people can be upset with service, but they do need to understand that this is NYC!!! Get used to it. To make a long story short, we were very impressed with the service and food, (good enough for 5 subsequent trips each year) and we even met Mr. Steven Bruce, who owns the place, and he seated us at the same table that the movie was filmed at. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, MAKE RESERVATIONS FAR IN ADVANCE TO AVOID LONG WAIT TIMES.
Pros: NYC Flavor, Excellent Dessert, Great Location
Cons: Small Size
