Il Violino Reviews
I give Il Violino an excellent rating overall. The wait staff was very attentive and, most importantly, the food was absolutely delicious.
With my friend Maria, we experienced one of the best meals I have ever had anywhere. Maria had the scallops and she loved the dish. I had the Braised Lamb with carrots and broccoli. The lamb had an amazing flavor and a tenderness like I have never experienced. Delicious meal, wine, and a beautiful dinner companion made for a perfect evening in NYC. Service was outstanding. WORTH EVERY PENNY.
Had a wonderful dinner with a great waiter. My special seafood ravioli dinner was made non dairy. It was superb! The chef knows how to cook, all 7 of us loved our dinner. It as an excellent end of our celebration of my mother’s 95th birthday.

Il Violino is a reliable choice for dinner, especially before events at Lincoln Center. The traditional Italian food is consistently excellent and reasonably priced, with generous portions. The experienced wait staff provide attentive and efficient service. The charming corner location has a beautiful view of the street and nice window seating looking out on Columbus Avenue. Customers praise the delicious meals, including the special pasta, fried calamari, veal piccata, penne alla vodka, and flourless cake. The restaurant's early opening hours make it convenient for enjoying a tasty lunch or brunch. Fantastic food, perfect ambiance, and excellent service provide a great dining experience.
