This place is amazing. My family went here for our Father's Day dinner. The food is absolutely delicious. Love the decor and the vibe of this restaurant. The staff is attentive and make you feel welcome. I've eaten here a few times now and will be back.

Dropped in here for a lunch after we got off the plane and paid way too much for the car ride from LGA. I am not man enough to drive in this city. In case anyone is wondering. Marilena salad was great. Smoked salmon was ok. Service was very very good. Outdoor seating was fun to sit and people watch. It's pricey but it is also next door to Lincoln Center, so here you go.

Easy Sunday, dining alone able to sit at the bar no problem, plenty of space. Great service from Carlos- so attentive. I had the eggplant parm, it was absolutely delicious. Large serving, enough on its own, but I couldn't help myself and I ended with a Caesar salad. A perfect glass of Barolo paired with dinner, which I was surprised to find by the glass, so I HAD TO HAVE IT. Overall, did not disappoint. Loved the scene/vibe. Beautiful inside.

Nice interior, service was good. We started with the Italian load with gorgonzola and 2 meatballs. Bread was very good but meatballs were pretty average. I had the linguine with clams and my husband had the chicken parm. Linguine was good - had alot of clams. My husband liked the chicken parm. We had chocolate mousse for dessert which came in a big quenelle shape and definitely had the texture of a mousse with another large quenelle of cream. The dessert was the star of this meal. Overall, it was a nice meal. I would come back if we were in the area.

I come to Cafe Fiorello very often. The ambiance and decor of the place is very welcoming and great for both a breakfast and dinner setting. It's a great place to come on a date or a nice dinner with friends. The servers are very prideful in their work and always extremely kind and on top of their service. The prices are a little expensive but worth it in my opinion. For Breakfast I would 100% recommend the Pancakes. They're extremely fluffy and very filling. For dinner I would recommend the Rigatoni alla Vodka. Rigatoni alla Vodka- 8/10 Chicken Parmigiana alla Vodka- 9/10 Buttermilk Pancakes- 10/10 Margherita Pizza- 7/10 Hot Chocolate- 8/10 Fettuccine Bolognese- 6.5/10

Amazing! Zoran was our waiter , very nice. Our first time dining here. I would highly recommend. We ordered 3 small plates for appetizers. Ricotta ball, sausage and peppers. So good, 3 of us shared. We also ordered the Gorgonzola Bread. Omg, bread stuffed with caramelized onions with the Gorgonzola cream on top! We had the Seared Scallop Special, cooked perfectly. Chicken Parmesan, excellent, two could have shared and the Lasagna! Not traditional Lasagna but one of the best I've had! Four people could share the lasagna. We shared the chocolate mousse with whipped cream! Not too sweet and airy! You must try when you're on the Upper West Side! They have many Gluten Free options!

Also don't understand any of the bad reviews!!! Food and cocktails were great, and service was attentive all night. We had a large group dinner here with family last Saturday. We ordered tons of the menu, the best thing was the meatballs!!! You must try them, some of the best I've ever had. Also enjoyed the crab cakes, the truffle potato hash, and the arancini. For my main, I got the ravioli, it tasted super fresh and homemade. Also make a great espresso martini.

Cafe Fiorello is one of the best, classic Italian restaurants on the Upper East Side. The bright lights and wood-paneling cultivate an ambiance of charming sophistication. Our waiter came promptly to seat us and checked on us at appropriate intervals during the meal. Most of all, I was impressed by the food. I expected the dishes to be really heavy, but each of our orders were appropriately sized and delectable. I initially thought the menu was limited for such an established place, but even the simplest dishes are satisfying and delicious. Fiorello's Calamari is one of the best variations of this classic Italian appetizer. The squid was lightly battered with rosemary and cuts easily in your mouth. It was even more tasty with the sauce which had a kick of spice -- an unique twist. It's easy to overlook the vegetable dishes, but it's essential that you order them! They were all really delicious, with the potato gratin and stuffed peppers tying first! I'm excited to come back here in the future. I know I won't be disappointed :)
