We had a fabulous time at our old stand-by across from Lincoln Center. Cleber at the bar took fantastic care of us as we enjoyed large plates of very well prepared Italian antipasti and a nice bottle of Primitivo!

When we travel to New York for the Met Opera - our #1 go-to place is Cafe Fiorello. We nearly always sit at the bar where the waiters with jaunty straw hats serve our every need. The wonderful cold and hot food there on display is a meal in itself. We always order eggplant caponata and carmelized fennel. You cannot go wrong with any of the choices. Everything is made in-house including the wonderful Limoncello digestiv. We are so hooked, we have often eaten lunch and late-night dinner too. The paper thin crust pizza is out o... read more

My partner and I had dinner at Fiorello after the opera, and we had such a delicious meal! The veggie antipasti would have been a great dinner in themselves, but we ordered the chicken paillard. That in itself was such a delicious choice; the chicken was pounded very thin and lightly grilled with olive oil and lemon and a hint of fresh parsley. All in all, a delicious meal with excellent service.

The warm & wonderful greeting I received was delightful. "Hey Diane Is Here." Some much fun. Anyway, the service beyond excellent and really enjoyed our Sunday Brunch. My husband & I have been there for lunch and dinner but never Brunch. Must add this brunch again following a movie at Lincoln Plaza Cinema. -

Good Italian food, good selection and all good tasting. Have been here twice and each time had something different. Both times a great experience. Can be a little loud but that doesn't bother me. We liked the energy.

After a 3.5 hour opera this past Saturday at the Met, we had reservations for Cafe Fiorello. Thank goodness, because the line was long getting in! We were seated in a quiet area of the restaurant and enjoyed the best service EVER…our water glasses never drained down more than halfway, and every one of our needs was met promptly and courteously. Our waiter made sure that we did not have to be out of the restaurant for a theater date when we sat down…excellent! Our food was spectacular…right-sized portions of eggplant parmesan... read more

Wonderful restaurant right across from Lincoln Center. It is one of my go-to places to eat either before or after seeing something at Lincoln Center. This time I had the Tagliatelle Bolognese, which is the best bolognese I've had in a long time! Definitely save room for desserts, which are huge but delicious! I have always had a great experience here, and cannot wait to go back. Although I am usually by myself when here, there are many others in groups or pairs. The bar area seems very lively, but you can also tell there are... read more
