Very nice find across the street from Lincoln Center. We had the whole bread loaf with garganloza which was unique and very tasty surprise. We both had the bone in veal Parmigiano. OUTSTANDING!!! The Parmigiano sauce was supplemented with burato which was very nice touch. Our server Kevin was quite attentive.

Enjoyed the Four Seasons pizza and the quinoa and avocado salad, which I shared with my husband. He can be a food snob so I was happy he was happy. Good selection of wines by the glass. Had a really nice server. The tab did not break the bank, a huge thing these days. Great place for a meal before a Lincoln Center performance.

Excellent caprese salad—their burrata mozzarella is worth the visit. Four seasons pizza was nearly perfect (it had onions, which wasn’t on the ingredient list), the flavor balance was just right and the ingredients fresh and generous. Fairly attentive waitstaff, although they occasionally overlooked me. Overall, as a single diner, I felt un-rushed, and valued. The Sancerre white wine was killer. Worth the splurge.

I've gone to Cafe Fiorello for MANY years but Saturday night was disappointing. They totally honored my request for a quiet table - not easy in a very busy restaurant- so loved our table- and I do understand the service shortage....but still! We all ordered the anitpasto bar- the food is already prepared and all they had to do was put it on a plate- but it took forever!We also told our waiter we had to be done by 7:30...but woundup having to rush. The food was ok- but not what it used to be. Not ready to totally give up- but not again soon before a curtain!

I have read other exceptional reviews and I am attempting to find the words to add to our incredible lunch experience. We arrived early from Philadelphia for our reservations and were greeted with a smile from the Hostess and shown to a booth inside which we preferred....and then, for an hour and a half were graciously waited on by Lyndon. Whatever questions we had or suggestions we needed he was on top of it! Fresh crabmeat on my pasta? ABSOLUTELY! Soup and another appetizer? ABSOLUTELY!! Suggestions for dessert? YUM! We were on our way to the Ballet so I didn't want to take my leftover pasta dish because of the garlic BUT he wrapped it over & over in foil and plastic so I could enjoy it again on my return to Philly. I requested the Manager and I hopefully conveyed to him how extraordinary Lyndon was to us.

Just went for after theatre dessert. Must say that the chocolate mousse while excellent is a mere fraction of its former portion which was served in a bucket so overall it was disappointing. And the waiter was very lackluster and perfunctory.

The evening started off so well - our server was friendly, our drinks and entrees arrived promptly but it went downhill from there. Our server disappeared and even after we asked another server to find him, we waited nearly 20 minutes with dirty plates. We would have ordered coffee and dessert, but ran out of time after waiting an additional 10 minutes for the dessert menus to be brought over. What a disappointment.
