When we were seated only a few tables were full .The place filled up 10 minutes later , however no one took our order .After notifying the host a waiter came . Apparently there was only one waiter for the entire restaurant . After waiting a half an hr we lost our appetite and decided to leave.why spend money for basically no service . In addition the host was not gracias .basically indifferent . Lots of restaurants in the area not worth the waist of time

Very pleasant atmosphere, intimate. Professional service but not overly friendly. Food was good, but not great. Chicken Parm was tough and dry.

The food was brought out in a timely manner. Unfortunately, it was not that tasty. The chicken parm sandwich is the smallest parm sandwich that I have ever seen. There should be more and better food for the $. We will not be back.

Disappointed Great location but lukewarm coffee and a wrap that should have been salmon and avocado but there was no avocado. I did not make a fuss because I was being treated by a niece and didn't want to create a fuss.

Sad, the cafe used to be a hip place to go -- now, the interior lost its vibe and the food is barely passable. It was empty on a Thursday evening, and I know why.

Regrettably took a friend to a birthday dinner after a show at Lincoln Center. The restaurant was cold and drafty with air conditioning freezing us out courtesy of LC, not the restaurant, according to the waitstaff. As we were starting on our appetizers (my soup was not hot), one of the main dishes (there were 3 of us) arrived, another 5 minutes later, and the last a few minutes after that. My entree was tasty, but inconsistently heated with some mouthfuls lukewarm and other bites cold. We decided to skip dessert. Very disap... read more

The diners' talking made a din, to which they added music and a live singer. Not a place for a conversation. Caesar salad was a mound of almost white chopped lettuce -- couldn't tell if Romaine or icebg. Dressing was good. But too expensive for that. Companion's "beet" salad had a ring of beet pieces around a mound of mixed lettuce. Too few to be named such. Need a quietish and moderately priced restaurant near Lincoln Center for an efficient meal before performances. This one isn't it.

Food was awful, ingredients seemed low quality, and kitchen very slow.

Our experience at Cafe Paradiso was a disappointment. We have dined there before and it was a good experience then. This time, we were seated at a table which barely should have accommodated one person, although there were many other tables available and we had a reservation. We both ordered soup and a sandwich. The soup was fine, but the half sandwiches were so small that they were gone in a couple of bites. The order was to include a side salad, but there was none. We have had the same order in the past and it was correct ... read more
