A convenient pre-Lincoln Center option at decent prices but neither the menu nor the atmosphere retains the charm of the space's much-missed previous occupant. My salad with salmon was certainly healthy if unexceptional. Server skillful enough. The already loud and somewhat crowded room was fatally undermined on a Friday evening by a very unsatisfactory, heavily overmiked saloon singer. I'd counsel avoiding nights when live music is threatened.
The ambience is better for socializing at breakfast and lunch, you'll be shouting at dinner. Best value is sandwiches, or soup/sandwich combos, which are delicious and satisfying. Be aware the entrees at dinner are more on the "small plate" size; although tasty, well prepared and priced, you may still be a bit hungry when you leave.
Great food and service at Lincoln Center, well-priced.
Food was great. Service was great as well and able to take as much time as we liked
Service was spotty on the last visit and it was quite loud. The food is solid and it is a good value. Convenient for any event at Lincoln Center.
It's a busy cafe, especially in the lunch hours before a matinee at Lincoln Center. We waited for a bout 5 minutes at the host's stand to check in and be seated, and were eventually waved in by one of the 2 waiters on duty. I guess they figured out we had an Open Table reservation but not sure how, since no one asked us for a name. Food was good and location is fantastic if attending a performance in any of the LC venues.
I always eat here before a show. Fast service. Good food. Good prices.
Cafe Paradiso is a very pleasant, enjoyable cafe, located right in Lincoln Center! Good food and service, usually easy to get a table. This successor to the wonderful Indie got off to a very rough start a couple of years ago, but an almost total remake has vastly improved it, and has made it our frequent destination!
Good for a quick coffee and snack before a weekday matinee
