Elegant Lincoln Center restaurant will not disappoint. We came here for the Prix Fixe Thanksgiving Dinner and it was an excellent dining experience. I started with the Burrata which was delicious. The traditional turkey dinner was moist and fresh, with tasty sides including brussel sprouts and spatzle. The pumpkin pie for dessert was creamy, and included a delicious side of sorbet. Service was attentive and friendly. I was very thankful for this meal.

My husband surprised me with a birthday dinner here before we watched the show Giselle. The servers are super friendly and make me feel very warm welcomed. The food is delicious, especially the cavier on top a small piece of fried potato which was just devine. The octopus was also super delicious with soft but perfectly chewy feeling inside mouth.

Beautiful restaurant near the Met opera. Food was delicious. Service was friendly and attentive. Expensive

This place is absolutely beautiful, surrounded by glass exterior, which allows the beautiful center to be the backdrop.
The service was kind but our waiter seemed to be rushing us a bit towards the end. Now, for the food. I'm not big on Italian food but this was an experience. The agnoletti with oxtail was a party in my mouth. It was so good, I had it twice. Don't skip it.

Chef Orlovskyy and his team put out a phenomenal meal. My wife and I enjoyed every dish we had and the service was top notch. The restaurant design was quite unique as well. Highly recommended and will return during another visit.

Have eaten at Lincoln Ristorante a couple of times over the years. This was the first time we've been here for Thanksgiving. The food, service, and atmosphere were all excellent. The 3 course pre-fix at 95 dollars per person also seemed fair as well for the experience we had. We highly recommend Lincoln Ristorante and would definitely come back again over Thanksgiving time or any other time for that matter. This is an excellent restaurant.

Superb cuisine, attentive service by welcoming staff, with stunning views of reflecting pool, made our first visit a delight. Interior, in an architectural gem, is impeccable. Table setting, no less than exquisite. As we enjoyed a scrumptious brunch from a creative menu, we will be returning soon.

Not quite as good as it should be given the prices but the perfect pre-opera location. Himachi was incredibly skimpy but tasty. Salad was very good but not super fresh. Excellent service and atmosphere. It’s tough to find a good place near Lincoln Center….

The Lincoln Restaurant at Lincoln Center offers an elegant dining experience with excellent meals from which to choose. The Fritto Misto won my heart immediately. You will like your dinner here without question. The only problem was that our party of five sat in a booth that was rather spread out. That would have been fine except there was a speaker directly above our table blaring mediocre music. I wanted to rip it out of the ceiling so I could hear table mates but decided that would be frowned upon.

Our table of 7 was so impressed by the quality of the meal, wine and service. Each dish was flavorful, elegant and fulfilling! Still dreaming about the most tender lamb shank and polenta corn side dish!! Service was amazing. Attentive, warm, educational and kind!! Never felt rushed or was there a lag in between courses. Don't miss the desserts! Fantastic spot for a beautiful experience. Chefs and Staff were professional and on point all night!!

We cannot thank you enough for the wonderful experience that pastry chef Richard Capizzi and the entire staff at Lincoln provided to us last evening. From the warm, inviting atmosphere to the amazing and perfectly paired selection of culinary delights, the night was one of our most memorable fine dining experiences. The passion and enthusiasm of the staff provided for an impeccable dinner. The service, food and presentation were top notch, and left us with only one regret -- that we hadn't tried Lincoln Ristorante sooner! We will certainly be back, and cannot wait to share our experience with friends and family.

Perfect experience = food + service + ambiance. The wine & drink list is really top notch
Jeff Albies
Great food, good service way way way overpriced. Three dinners on Christmas eve. 1 prefix at $75. Raindeer, 2 1/3 inch pieces, 2 scallops as app, 1 ( suppa de pesche with small salad, 1 veal chop with small app, 2 glasses of Primativo wine,
$17 each. Total bill $295. I paid for the overhead and location. My bad. Had to go somewhere else for decently priced dinner. Rip Off. Fool me once....
Claudia Castellon
Perfect, perfect all around, service, food and watching all the action!!!! Anything you order will be an absolute delight!!! The service is wonderful but watching all the kitchen action is the best!!!
Betty Rodriguez
The service was second to none. This was the best mother’s day dinner I’ve had. Amazing food, great ambiance, excellent service. Will definitely return.
Sid Pinkerton
We had a great time. I had heard this restaurant wasn’t what it was when it first opened and so I haven’t been here for a few years.
Well!!!!! Did I ever miss out. This place is still amazing. The food was great and the only thing better might be the service.
Have a great time with great food and great service. Just go and enjoy!!!

My favorite place to wine and dine, with a wonderful staff to make it an enjoyable experience

Only stopped in for cocktails, but the service was over the top and the cocktails were extremely detailed and tasty. We will return!

The service was actually slow to start, which was odd because they were not busy, but got much better after they finally took my order. Formal rather than friendly service. Most of the food was quite good (and I like that they gave an amuse bouche plus focaccia with ricotta to start) but I didn't think it was memorable, and the poached pear dessert was a disappointment. Overall it was very nice (though very pricey) and the inside looks stylish although I dined outside.

Never failed serving the best, creative, beautifully presented, delicious food
Great wine selection
Alexandra Attiah
Impeccable service. Magnificent quality at perfect portions. Worth what you pay for - I highly recommend Lincoln Ristorante!
George Blair Scribner
Lincoln is one of the few pricey restaurants in New York that is worth every cent. Beautiful, restrained, gracious, and delicious. And, nothing is more romantic than dinner outside on the Lincoln Center plaza.

Service, food, and truffles! Good God, unreal
You best get here if you want a phenomenal meal to to remember. Still craving those truffles.

Lincoln Ristorante offers a gorgeous room for dining. It's spaciousness and quiet (sometimes gentle music plays low enough to be able to hear and have a conversation). Service is attentive, food beautifully presented, portions (by most American standards) are well portioned, aka/enough not too much, every detail attended to. All the views are perfect. Each section has it's own charm, and outdoors with good weather is lovely, too.
