    Both of us ended up with intestinal distress about 6 hours after eating. Wait staff were overwhelmed, food came late for a pre theater meal, didn't have time for dessert.

    Compared to other restaurants in the area, many of which have excellent food, Lincoln Ristorante stands out for its more pleasant ambience as well as its excellent cuisine. The tables aren't crowded together, the staff is uniformly helpful and friendly, the noise level is moderate, and all this goes with excellent food and wine, which is why we eat here whenever we attend a performance at Lincoln Center.
