At Lincoln Ristorante, delight in upscale Italian cuisine with an open kitchen and sweeping views, making it the go-to for pre-show bites near the opera.
"Half of the draw at Lincoln Ristorante is the avant-garde Diller Scofidio + Renfro space, with giant floor to ceiling windows propped up against a sloped lawn roof. There is where you go to enjoy a $17 negroni and look out over the Eero Saarinen-designed Vivian Beaumont Theatre. This is also where you also go for respectable pastas, even though the heralded tenure of chef Jonathan Benno ended long ago. Consider the trofie with Tuscan sausage and Calabrian chiles; also try the paccheri with short rib and black truffle when it’s available as an (excellent) special." - Ryan Sutton
"Wine pick-up and delivery available every day. Check their website for more information." - nikko duren
"James Beard Foundation Award-winning chef Kwane Onwuachi’s restaurant named after his sister features dishes inspired by his childhood in the South Bronx, such as truffled chopped cheese buns, Egusi soup dumplings, Wagyu short rib pastrami suya, and more. Bar master Don Lee creates unique cocktails including a Negroni with sorrel and an espresso coquito." - Travel + Leisure Editors
"The location of Lincoln Center's refined Italian restaurant makes it a no-brainer for before a show, but the menu (not to mention the seriously sophisticated, Italian-only wine list) actually stands up to our favorite hole-in-the-wall joints downtown. The menu fulfills cravings for all the classic dishes, from spaghettini al pomodoro to lobster risotto, plus a glorious bistecca alla griglia. If you come in the evening, don't forget to check out another bonus from the drinks program: The negroni and prosecco bars. "
