This cafe is adjacent to the Vivian Beaumont Theater of Lincoln Center which is definitely close by for those that need it to be. It is a very nice environment, clean, organized, with a delicious menu, nice portions and friendly, polite staff.

A tasty and affordable Lincoln Center restaurant. Only glitch: No dishes with eggs are offered on Sunday brunch, which begins at 11 a.m.

Charming spot, super convenient to Lincoln Center. The food was good. I’ve been here a number of times over the years. If you want to connect with some real talent, this is the place to stop for a nosh. Our waiter was an actor whose latest movie is on Netflix – he didn’t volunteer that, we asked him! And the young kid sitting beside us with his mom was the understudy the musical “Ragtime,” which we had just seen. A fun restaurant in a happening part of New York City.

Great location next to Lincoln Center. The host and waitress were very nice. I had the caprese sandwich, which was tasty, maybe too much garlic in the pesto sauce. Good place to come to for a quick meal before a show. 

Business response:

We’re glad you enjoyed our convenient location, friendly service, and caprese sandwich. We appreciate your feedback on the pesto and are happy to hear we could be a good spot for a quick meal before a show. We look forward to welcoming you back!

I have eaten at Cafe Paradiso since it opened…..I have always enjoyed the convenience and simple selections. I sensed a significant decline in quality and selections last evening. Our table ordered the turkey/Swiss sandwich and a flatbread to share. The sandwich was OK, the potato chips were very random….three different types….and the salad was fistful of lettuce. The flatbread was not hot enough for the cheese to have melted. My immediate reaction was that the cafe was ‘tired.’ I do know that this restaurant is part of Fire... read more

The meatballs were unavailable, and the milkshake machine was out of order. While our young server was friendly, she was not very attentive.

From the moment we entered, we felt welcomed. Upon arrival, we were greeted by a wonderful host who also took the time to say a real goodbye to us when we left. We were waited on by an excellent server and enjoyed a delicious meal. We left fully satisfied, and the prices were reasonable for the area. And the proximity to the Vivian Beaumont Theater was extraordinary. Thank you!
