Underneath the new signs and behind the closed up windows and doors, the Greek-American restaurant is about to be re-created.
For more than 25 years, Seros has been a much-loved dining destination in Rochester Hills: from the coffee and breakfast combos to the gyros and homemade soups, Patch readers have repeatedly offered up praise for the Greek-American restaurant. But where did Seros go? The restaurant has been closed since the new year. Over the weekend, a sign for "Lucky's Prime Time" replaced the red and orange Seros sign along Walton Boulevard. But underneath the new signs and behind the closed windows, that same family restaurant still exists. Seros will reopen soon as Lucky's; owners Lucky and Alicia Vasilakis are making a few changes — among them: adding alcohol to the menu and a small dance floor to the interior. The owners received a liquor license …

A survey of chefs around the country show locally grown ingredients, healthful kids' choices and sustainable fish rank highest among customers.
Restaurants sometimes surprise us with leading-edge cuisine, but owners and chefs know success depends mainly on pleasing the customer. A new national survey of 2012 menu trends gives high rankings to healthful kids’ meals, regional ingredients and fish that isn't endangered. "Locally sourced meats and seafood" and "locally grown produce" are the top two menu trend choices of nearly 1,800 chefs surveyed by the National Restaurant Association. Nutritious children's meals featuring whole grains, vegetables and fruit also will be on more menus, according to the online survey of American Culinary Federation members last fall. Gluten-free selections and more choices for guests with food allergies also ranks prominently among restaurant trends, …

New cafe features crepes, both sweet and savory.
You're not just imagining that you smell fresh baked goodness in the air at The Village of Rochester Hills. That's Hepburn's Crepe and Coffee, named for its owner's love of Breakfast at Tiffany's and all things Audrey Hepburn. It is now open behind Max & Erma's in The Village. Owner Deanna Birg said she considered this week a "soft opening" for the cafe, which is a version of one located on Van Dyke in Shelby Township. Hours in Rochester Hills are 10 a.m.-9 p.m. Monday-Saturday and noon-6 p.m. Sunday. Hepburn's features crepes, coffee and other treats. Not unlike a northern Michigan fudge shop, the crepes are made in the window for passers-by to admire. It is the second new restaurant to open at The Village this fall: Flat Top Grill opened…

My husband and I have gone to Serro's for brunch after Mass on Sundays for years. The staff has always been friendly and hellpful, especially the hostess. And, they offer the best breakfast selection in the area. It is true that it could have been cleaner because it was in need of a renovation. So now it is renovated and I expect to be back on Sunday mornings. Sorry to see that the politicians … more ›
