Took rather long for our order to arrive. And then my eggplant parm was barely luke warm. Waitress returned it for heating it up, but it still was almost cold. Tasted good though and we could not wait for a second try since we had concert tickets and the caffee was closing down. 10% off didn't quite cut it.

This is our second meal here. My friend had the spaghetti and meatballs. I had the bean soup and the pulled pork sandwich and salad. Both meals weee outstanding. For dessert, my friend had a brownie and I has very nice mini-biscottis.

My husband and I booked a pre-ballet lunch here for 12:30pm on 3/1/25. It was a challenge to find the place because it's well hidden!

We each had a quartino of wine, and water was already available on the table. I think our early arrival (before 12:30) l was wise because the dining room was filled by 12:30pm! I had the Burrata Ravioli which was excellent but it would'v... read more

Paradiso Café is a delightful moderately priced cafe in otherwise fairly pricey Lincoln Center area. Fresh salads and Italian specialties are outstanding as well as simple soup and salad combos. A most welcome addition to the neighborhood!

Cafe Paradiso slabs a broad menu of items, well prepared, prompt and friendly. Their prices are moderate for the Lincoln Center neighborhood. I had great pulled pork sandwich, while my friends had spaghetti and meatballs and a seafood pasta. I’m not a big fan of Italian food so glad they had multiple sections. Both of my friends loved their lunch dish.

I've been coming here for a long time. In the last two times, with a reservation, I've been told I can't be moved from an uncomfortable table to a nicer table. We were there last night. 2 women. My friend was there first, and was seated at an end table on the banquet that was crowded and uncomfortable as the 2nd chair was not opposite the banquet. The man behind her, who also arrived before his companion, was given a nicer table. Misogynistic, why yes. We were there on a Friday night, which now has live music, an opportunity... read more
