The food was nice, with the antipasti as the standout. Most notably, the staff rose to the occasion when torrential rains suddenly rolled in. They repositioned us under the awning after we asked to stay outside, and they went with our request. Marco the maitre d and his crew were terrific, and deserve a "shout out". A good find in the Lincoln Center area.
Another wonderful time had a Cafe Fiorello. This time for lunch with friends, we enjoyed dining outside. The antipasta bar is a meal in itself.
Great pre-theatre dining. Tables very crowded and this makes it very noisy, but the food makes up for it.
Cafe Fiorello is a great place to sit outside and have a nice, low key meal. The service is also very friendly and helpful towards your decision as to what to eat.
We arrived on a Sunday evening around 8pm. After sharing an antipasto plate it took and EXCEPTIONALLY long period of time to be served our main course of two pasta dishes while the patrons around us were served their meals. Other than that issue, it was a pleasant experience.
I have loved this restaurant for many years. However, there was a very noisy group with crying babies next to me, and no one asked them to be quiet, and it's completely inappropriate for this kind of lovely restaurant. Also, the food was not up to the usual standards. Caponata was too sugary! and the braised fennel was inedible it was so caramelized.
A bit overpriced for portions given. Very attentive service, but not overly so. We asked to be out in time for ballet and the waiter was very much on that. Food was tasty, but again pricy. A true tourist venue. But perfect for Lincoln Center.
Dinner was excellent. We requested a table in the back which is much better than sitting in the bar if you don't want to be elbow-to-elbow. The restaurant was more noisy due to multiple birthday and graduation celebrations.
Been there many times. It's always a good reliable option in Lincoln Center. Nothing great - just plain good.
