   If you want a dinner of oil and butter, this is your place. Every dish swam in one or the other.

   The Lincoln Ristorante is a wonderful place to have a pre-event dinner before anything at Lincoln Center. The menu is not extensive but everything is wonderful- perfectly prepared and presented. The wine list is very extensive and wonderful. The service is impeccable and the ambience is so very lovely- very bright and lovely with tables sufficiently spaced so that you are not on top of your neighbors. We love it!

   Lincoln is a consistent, delightful experience before a show at Lincoln Center. The food and wine are worth savoring, along with the excellent people watching outside. Recommendations and courtesy from wait staff are excellent and kind.

   Dining at Lincoln Ristorante is always a treat. The food and service are top quality. They just changed the menu for the season and it had some great choices. We enjoyed both the Veal Saltimboca and spaghetti with clams. Location to the Lincoln Center venues makes it very convenient.

   Disappointed in cuisine. Veal saltimbocca was a thick veal chop, couldn’t eat it. Lobster pasta not seasoned well, cheesecake also strange. We loved this restaurant before but may cross it off our list

   The new menu at the Lincoln Ristorante, which they had just begun to offer when we ate there yesterday, had many tempting offerings, but the two I tried were outstanding. I recommend the tomato tarte appetizer highly, and for vegetarians (though not vegans), the agnolotti was the only, but delicious choice.

   Love that Lincoln is a quiet restaurant with no loud obnoxious music in the “background”. Warm and welcoming service, imaginative cocktails, excellent wine list, delicious food.

    Our server was attentive, knowledgeable and very courteous. He made sure that we were served in plenty of time for our show. I will definitely be visiting Lincoln Ristorante again soon.
