Sero’s

Great food, friendly staff, and great prices! The fried chicken is delicious as well as the stir fry. The owner came to our table to ask us if everything was good which was a nice touch. He even offered cookies to my two children which was sweet. Overall we enjoyed our meal and the restaurant.

Went for breakfast. I didn’t like it. I had the Serros Extreme Breakfast which came with eggs, two bacon, two sausage and two pancakes. One would think this would be foolproof, yes? The only thing that had any type of flavor was the bacon. The sausage was luke warm and tasteless, the pancakes were dry and tasteless, the eggs were tasteless (how is that even possible for scrambled eggs?) but my bacon was pretty tasty so I tried to make it last through the meal.
This is an old family restaurant with a good customer base. I hope they thrive and just improve on the quality of the food.
The two stars is for the bacon and the friendly staff.
Unfortunately I’ll have to pass.

This place serves you a load of food, and the menu is pretty extensive. The food is a tad greasy and sometimes has that bland, fried taste, which I don’t really enjoy.

Awesome place! Food is made fresh and the waitress are nice. This is my 4^th time coming here and if i have the time I will come back for dinner even though I never had their dinner there… but I bet its delicious

This place is not worth anyone’s time. The coffee was cold when it came to us. The waitress was nice and gave decent service, but most of the food came out cold or lukewarm. We told the waitress about the cold french toast, including that it felt like it had come from a fridge. The waitress barely reacted, almost like she knew that it did come from the fridge. She then took it and heated it up in a microwave. It was rubbery after that. The only hot plate of food that came out was the skillet. Don’t get anything that could be premade because it will most likely be lukewarm or cold. The woman checking us out at the register also added an extra $ 0.20 to our check. This isn’t a huge deal, but it could be worse for other customers. Beware when choosing to eat here.

Owner needs to let them sons know there’s more to do than walk circles at the business, leave the phones at home, and for sure stay out of waitresses way. When customers are entering please don’t stand out front doing absolutely nothing. Roll some silverware for exsample. Your reg.customer. T.R.P.

Breakfast bargains, my friend usually gets the biscuits and gravy special. The staff is courteous and attentive. Also, they have grits during breakfast, which isn’t as common as one might think. The place has a warm atmosphere, especially after the recent remodel. Comfort food.

Breakfast is on par. Prices are a little tall but the selections and portions are legit. Good enough that we wanted to try dinner. We probably wouldn’t do another dinner. Authentic Greek feel down to the bad eyeliner, QVC on the TV hocking gaudy jewelry, and guy in the first booth jabbering away on his phone. I had the Greek combo. A pile of onions tomatoes and a few cucumbers with some pita, feta, meat, and an overcooked chicken portion. For a starter I asked for a salad and soup. Salad dressing was so separated all I got was oil and the soup was supposed to be beef and cabbage. With no beef in sight it was all cabbage and tomato skins. Our entrée was about 30 seconds behind my soup and salad, and my kids’ chicken tenders were served straight from the fryer at an unsafe temp. The server was nice but the food quality was on par with a school cafeteria. The prices leave more than enough margin to have some quality, but it wasn’t there. Shop Greek at GFS or Sam’s and save your money. On a positive note, the spanakopita was probably great when they made it Monday, but they served it to us on Friday and it was hardly suitable as a coaster for my drink.

Very busy yet prompt service. Hostess was seating others so waitress jumped in and showed me to a table. Wide range of menu options. Lumberjack B’fast: eggs cooked perfectly as ordered; grits (substituted for potatoes) thick & creamy — also a nice portion; large portion of biscuits & gravy was nicely flavored & creamy with ample sausage pieces. 2 split biscuits were soft and toothsome. All in all a nice meal with no hiccups.

Stopped by for dinner as I was driving by, and I was not disappointed. I was surprised that they had so many daily specials. I chose the Sero’s Fried Chicken with mashed potatoes and corn. This was exactly the comfort food I was looking for. The service was friendly, and I expect that if I lived closer, I’d visit often. It seems like most of the guests were locals that the staff knew by name. This is the kind of restaurant I like to hit. A local place that keeps America going. Only minor negative was that the glass of water didn’t taste exceptionally good. Thank you for a great experience.

My family and I went to Sero’s for breakfast one Saturday morning, and it was packed, so we thought it must be good. All I could figure was that the crowd is mostly made up of regulars who just go to the same place all the time. The price was too high as compared to Lincoln Square Pancake House. The pancakes were chewy and tasted like they had dish soap in them. I couldn’t finish mine. My kids liked their chocolate chip pancakes, though. The eggs and bacon were very greasy. Coffee was also oily /​acidic. Service was below average, but they were very busy at the time. As Kevin said, the décor is way outdated, and the place felt dirty to me, like there is a coating of dust and fingerprint smudges over everything. I definitely do not recommend Sero’s. Drive farther to the East and eat at Lincoln Square Pancake House. You won’t be disappointed.

Sero’s is just not good. The décor is old and dated, the layout is strange, and the lighting is too bright. The menu — too many items; the Friday night special list had 15 items! I had the special prime rib for 14.95 and my wife the gyro for 9.95. Prime rib was tough and not good: the gyro was a tad dry but ok.
I drive by this place almost every Sunday morning so it must be good for Breakfast!

I’m sure you’ve heard of the concept of «comfort foods.» «Sero’s Restaurant» in Cumberland, Indiana is a «comfort restaurant,» a Greek-​American eatery with a wide variety of different food types and a strong feeling of «small town diner.»
I was in the mood for a «comfort restaurant» this evening after a long week at work. While I knew I wouldn’t be considered one of the «regulars» as I don’t live in a small town and don’t often find my general neighborhood in search of a meal, there’s just something about a laid back small-​town diner that makes me smile.
I’d wanted to try this place since the days when I drove by it on my way out to seminary in Richmond, Indiana. As I pulled into the parking lot, I noticed that they had one defined accessible spot. It had the wheelchair symbol on the concrete, but not the actual sign (Which, in Indiana, means it’s not legally enforceable). There’s a ramp that leads up to the front door, though you should be aware it’s not completely ADA compliant in terms of its grade. I didn’t have any problems with it, but someone with strength issues might struggle a bit.
The cashier/​hostess area is right inside the front door and I was greeted promptly. To your right, there’s a main dining area and there’s a secondary dining area with a television further to the back. I was seated at the very first table, though it was a spot that made sense. The restaurant wasn’t crowded yet as it was early in the dinner hour. Those who were present appeared to be largely an older group of folks that included both singles and couples. They appeared, for the most part, to be regulars and were obviously being treated as such. While I wasn’t quite in the clique, I was still treated well and I enjoyed watching the relationships that staff had with the diners.
I wrestled quite a bit with what to eat, but found myself inspired by good friend Rick Garrett, also known as the Tenderloin Connoisseur, a blogger who specializes in that great Hoosier delicacy. So, I ordered what was billed as the «Giant Breaded Tenderloin.» It came with either fries, chips, cole slaw or something else I’ve completely spaced. I added fries to it along with an unsweet iced tea.
I have a feeling that The Tenderloin Connoisseur would find this to be a disappointing tenderloin. While it certainly is sizable, that’s not exactly rare among tenderloins and I’ve definitely experienced bigger sandwiches. The sandwich was meaty, but there was just something about the taste that was a little off. I looked at the meat and it just didn’t seem right. It wasn’t a bad sandwich, but by the end of it I was more than happy to be done with it. The bun was slightly toasted, but it tasted like your generic bun and was a bit too crumbly. The french fries were standard American fries that, once again, were neither good nor bad. The sandwich and fries costs $ 9.99, which seems a tad high for this kind of place. That said, I did see a number of other sandwiches available from $ 5.99 — $ 8.99 or even full meals for decent prices.
My server was attentive, but while she offered me dessert she never offered me a refill. As an iced tea addict, I found this a bit disappointing as at least one refill seems fairly standard.
If I could, I’d probably rate Sero’s smack dab in the middle with a 2.5 star rating. It was practically the definition of an average meal. That said, even with my disappointment with the tenderloin, I found myself feeling like this was a decent yet disappointing meal with friendly people as staff. That said, I live not far from another similarly themed local chain, Lincoln Square, and my experience at Sero’s was certainly not good enough to become a destination spot. If I happen to be driving by it and am hungry, I’d definitely stop but I’d also definitely not order the tenderloin again.

Excellent food and good service. It has a small town diner feel. Daily specials for lunch with good size portions .they specialize in greek food but they have a full menu and everything i have had is great.

Good looking, inviting exterior. Seros’ building benefits from the upgrade to the Far East Side portion of East Washington street. Yet, it has a funky entrance as there is only 1 door in and out. The hostess and cashier is right at the front door and human log jams easily form.
–Visits to Greek breakfast/​lunch dining establishments trigger either a desire of corned beef hash with poached eggs or the mutated form of what Hoosiers call gyros.
–Why do menus need to be so large? It’s perplexing and must be difficult to prepare all the dishes to a delicious standard.
Up to the task? I hoped to say yes. Yet, the hash was lacking flavor. Why, oh why were 2 slices of fake swiss cheese on top of the hash and below the poached eggs? All this on stale «American fries». At least the eggs were cooked to standard.
Bottom line, decent place to sit down if you’re very hungry.

I have given this place a few tries. I just don’t care for it. Given the atmosphere inside the restaurant, I either expect prices to be lower or (considering the prices) the food to be much better. It has just seemed overpriced for what I’ve gotten there. I don’t recommend it.

I used to work a couple doors down from here. I like to eat local and the girls in the office all raved about it, so I figured I’d give it a go. My roommate and I went in for breakfast. They had cartoons on the TV’s going too loud and the service was terrible. The server messes up our drink orders and when the food came out of the kitchen it wasn’t what we ordered. I don’t mean like we got another table’s food. I mean it was almost what we wanted, but not close enough to eat it anyway. The food was fairly lackluster.
A few weeks went by and the boss decided to take us there for lunch. I couldn’t even tell you what I ordered because it was so wrong. So very wrong. I sent it back and it came out wrong again. Finally I just resolved to not eat lunch that day.

I don’t know how I feel about this place. I have been here twice and i lived near here for ten years. With that being said something keeps them in business. Breakfast is okay but dinner isn’t good at all. No bread they bring you a few packs of crackers that look as if they have been crumpled by every hand that’s been in their. There is nothing special about their «special» fried chicken! Mash potatoes plopped on the plate shaped like a scoop of ice cream and mixed vegi from a can! Yuck! And over priced! Never again!
I liked the Boston cream cake that’s why I gave them two stars, however not enough to keep me comming back. sorry keep cruising down Washington st, better options await you!

I did not want to give this place a bad review but the food just is not that good!
The service is hit or miss most of the time but the food is overly processed and bland at best.
I ordered a big cheeseburger which tasted like one of those ready made patties at walmart that you microwave. The cheese tasted terrible like an Aldi’s brand slice made with vegetable oil.
My wife ordered a mushroom and swiss burger. OMG! The mushrooms were canned and slimy and the swiss cheese had no flavor.
Some of you reading this might think I am being too harsh but If someone thinks that the food here is good, The food at home must be awful!
I used to work for Gordon food service and I know that this place is a big customer. The food is short order, processed, and devoid of flavor and originality.
I see lots of Cumberland police officers eating there. I feel sorry for them.

Family restaurant on the Eastside. I ordered a giant tenderloin and it was pretty freaking large. I have an endless pit of a stomach so it totally went into my belly! The food was hot and came out quick. The place isn’t anything special. You can get this food at any local family restaurant. I didn’t hate it but I didn’t love it, it is just ‘eh’.
