We popped in on a recommendation of a friend.
SUCH a win! Every staff member we encountered was cheerful, so happy to greet or serve us. Our darling waitstaff, Amanda, was undaunted by our many questions and enthusiastically recommended several things.
She was spot on with each one. The portions were beyond our ability to finish.
Pity.
Desserts looked intriguing. My husband chose breaded chicken piccata…and still took nearly half in a carry out.
My three veg choices from the antipasto bar were each standouts in their own right, marvelously conceived and perfectly cooked.
I could not choose a favorite. What a great time.
I will take this experience as a great New York meal.

Hi, Lynn.
Thanks for taking the time to share your positive experience.
We truly appreciate it!

My second visit of Cafe Fiorello.
Still, it was as good or even better than my last meal here. Their innovative open lasagne, featuring meatballs, ribs, and burrata cheese, was an absolute delight.
The tomato sauce added a refreshing lightness to the dish, making it less dense and incredibly flavorful.
The portion sizes were impressively generous, perfect for sharing with a group of friends.
As for brunch, their French toast was a guilty pleasure like no other.
The chocolate toast adorned with roasted walnuts, raisins, and fresh strawberries left me feeling completely satisfied.
I can’t wait to revisit Cafe Fiorello whenever I’m in the vicinity of the Lincoln Center.
Highly recommended for anyone seeking a delicious and fulfilling dining experience!

Hi, Yu-han.
Thank you so much for leaving us a stellar review!

The vegetarian antipasto tasted pretty good, but we didn’t feel well after and were concerned about its freshness.
The chicken parm was so thin it seemed entirely devoid of chicken and the pasta mediocre.
We asked for the pasta to be al denté but it was mush.
The cannoli with pistachio cream was decent.
The place was packed with happy people though, and the location for Lincoln Center can’t be beat.
