   Food was delicious. The spring peas salad with burrata, although a scant portion, was excellent. The cavatelli was solid. The deconstructed cheesecake was less successful. The ambiance and view can’t be beat. The service was efficient and friendly.

   Lincoln Ristorante is the best place for pre- and post-theater dining at or near Lincoln Center. I'm not sure why these Open Table reviews don't have pre-theater as a category on which to rate a restaurant (along with "neighborhood gem," or "good for special occasions"). But for us, commuting from New Jersey to attend a concert,opera, theater, or ballet at Lincoln Center, Lincoln Ristorante is a pre-theater gem, and we feel lucky that the most convenient restaurant is also the best.

   I love the setting and ambience. However tbe menu is too limited. The only dish that works for someone who prefers a simply prepared dinner is the chicken, which is okay. Suggestion is a grilled fish offering. Also difficult for someone who is lactose intolerant.

   Eating outside was spectacular! Both our pasta dishes, raviolis and spaghetti with crab were simply excellent. My husband had the asparagus to start and I had the sweet pea vegetable- again excellent. While we were not planning to have dessert, we were having such a wonderful time that we shared the strawberry rhubarb tart which was spectacular. We will be dining at Lincoln again soon!

    Great location for pre-opera, philharmonic, ballet dinner. Good food and service but somewhat over priced.
