Persephone

Absolutely amazing! I went during on a Thursday for their $40.00 three course pasta special! Everything was delicious, I got the Bolognese. can’t believe I haven’t gone to this place before! Definitely now on my top three favorites in Santa Cruz

My wife and I went to Persephone for our wedding anniversary and had a great experience. The atmosphere was cozy and romantic. The food was delicious. The staff was friendly and made us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. They really helped make the evening feel special. We had a wonderful time and will definitely be back. Highly recommend this place for a date night or celebration!

Delicious food, nice atmosphere and excellent service. Fine dining in an intimate setting. The menu is frequently updated. The servers are attentive but not intrusive.

Had fish of the day, was well prepared, tender and full of texture. App (eggplant) was ok. Wine was nice, but service topped it :) Meal was for one person

Great service and atmosphere! The food, however, was satisfactory. If it wasn't for the Pork Belly appetizer, we would've given the food 2 stars. My husband had the short rib and I had the halibut for the main course. My husband thought the rib was not as moist as he'd hoped. My halibut was dry and lacked flavor. The chard sauce did not compliment the fish. The best item on the dish was the saffron spoon bread. It was light and had a wonderful flavor. We enjoyed the experience largely due to Jackson's service, but the quality of the food did not match the price. Unfortunately, we will not be going back.
