Finished in warm wood, brass and mirrors, the main dining room suggests a timeless charm. In addition to the hot and cold antipasto specialties of vegetables and seafood, the menu features updated Italian classics and specialty dishes, as well as a selection of seafood, steak, veal & pasta.

    The overall experience was poor. It was not the service or the food which was average, but the fact that the dining room packed in more tables than there was actually room for. Eating there was like sitting in the middle of Broadway at rush-hour. The wait staff attempted to navigate between tables, but could not do so without bumping into patrons. The dining room was full, and the noise level was high, but expected. What was not expected was the overcrowding.

    We were seated in a quiet area as requested. The food was very good and everything was plated beautifully. However, the service was not as personal as it could’ve been. It was obvious that the waitress really didn’t care whether we were enjoying our selections. Having Design here many times over the past 30 years we expected it to be as it once was.

    Cafe Fiorello is a New York City institution. World-class pizza, outstanding Italian-American food packed with flavor. Great service. Comfortable, fashionable setting. The place is a gem.

    The food was very mediocre. My salad had barely any dressing and the tomatoes were tasteless and mushy. The veal parmigiana was dry and tasteless and the veal had been beaten to a grainy pulp. It was hard not to choke.

    Staff terrific at high volume time—Nutcracker started at 5 pm across the street. Put our luggage in storage and quickly set up a place when our daughter unexpectedly needed a food pit stop. Food above average, but location stupendous when visiting Lincoln Center.
