We have eaten here several times, and always enjoyed attentive service and tasty food. However, our last visit was disappointing, and it seemed as if the restaurant had changed management (from great to mediocre). Too bad, as I'm not sure we'll risk another try.

We had another fantastic dinner, great salad and the special I ordered was home made pasta, mushrooms, peas and prosciutto in a light sauce. Wonderful, as I am a meat/fish person. The other special was rock fish, again, just super. We try to eat here once a month, and each visit is as good as the firdt one. Thank you... More

Sirena Cucina (which in Italian means Mermaid Kitchen) is one of the best restaurants I have eaten at anywhere, much less in Norfolk. I've eaten here on four separate occasions, the most recent of which was for Valentine's Day. I can't think of a better place for a romantic dinner for two. The food and service are simply superb.

No matter what you order at Sirena, it will be good. They do seafood especially well, with a tasty sear on fish and never overcooking shellfish. This is a nice place for grown-ups to enjoy a great meal. Is it the fastest, cheapest place in town? No, it's for people who like to dine in peace and savor their meal.... More

We were at a business conference and it became my task to make the recommendation for a restaurant each evening. After having a disastrous previous evening I was on "two strikes and you are out". When we arrived at the restaurant we were surprised to be almost the only people in the restaurant and my colleagues were beginning to think... More

As much as I love this area, the food for the most part is what I would call "white bread". Sirena is pure Italian bread. Fabio is a fabulous host/chef/owner. Everything is homemade. Everything is delicious, They have incredible wines at a great price. Believe it or not, I am simply a consumer, not an agent to this place. Ten... More

Excellent food and wine. I had the Osso Bucco (one of my favorite dishes) which was excellent. I made short work of it.
