    I have been going to Fiorello for more than 40 years, and as always the food and ambiance was great. On this occasion, the waiter had problems communicating in English. He got one order wrong, but we didn't sent it back, and understanding him was difficult. The tables in the front window are great for watching the activity around you, but they are cold in the winter. The last time we were sat in the front in the winter, we asked to be moved, but this time we stayed and shivered a little. Fiorello in a NYC institution, and it is the first restaurant we went back when restaurants started reopening after COVID. We have many great memories from the place.

    Had the lasagna which is what they are known for. Humongous and delicious. We've learned to share it for the two of us and still had some leftovers.

    I’ve been going to Cafe Fiorello for years now and they never disappoint. Great food quality, friendly and quick staff. Always a great option if you are in the Upper West Side area.

    Chicken was off. Couldn’t eat it. Sent it back. No apology. They couldn’t have cared less. Also the chocolate mousse, which is usually amazing, was chalky and the whip cream was watery. This was one of my favorite places to go before Lincoln Center shows. But they’ve lost their sparkle, and life’s too short to eat at bad food with rude service. Goodbye Fiorello. I’m going to Bar Boulud or The Smith from here on out.

    Awesome food and experience, despite the restaurant being super busy with holiday guests. We had a perfect table, a wonderful bottle of the Prosecco Rose, excellent pasta and the best cannoli ever! They even passed oven fresh mini cookies around and to top it off our waitress brought over some yummy limoncello on the house! Our best New York experience of the entire week!
