About Cafe Paradiso

welcome to Cafe Paradiso, an Italian-American cafe and restaurant nestled inside the Film at Lincoln Center’s Elinor Bunin Munroe Film Center. Opened in March 2023 as a refreshed space following Indie Food & Wine, Cafe Paradiso combines casual dining with versatile private event capabilities. With seating for up to 55 and room for 75 standing in private configurations, it’s a reliable spot for date nights, business lunches, intimate gatherings, or catering-led events. We’ve got you covered with practical details to help you plan your visit, from parking and transit to nearby hotels and recommended partners for dining and stays.

Cafe Paradiso is part of The Fireman Hospitality Group, known for thoughtful hospitality and seamless event services. Whether you’re stopping by for a casual meal, arranging catering for a private event, or coordinating a larger gathering at a Lincoln Center-affiliated venue, we can help secure your seats and coordinate details. For parking, use the Lincoln Center Main Campus underground garage, or the SP+ garage at 150 W 65th St. The closest subway is 66th St–Lincoln Center (1 train), with multiple bus routes serving the area. Nearby, you’ll find trusted partners for stays and dining—Empire Hotel NYC, Trump International Hotel & Tower New York, and Mandarin Oriental, New York—perfect for lodging after a night of performances or events. For events and promotions tied to Lincoln Center venues, Caf Paradiso regularly collaborates on private dining and catered experiences. If you’re planning a visit, reach out to us and we’ll help you navigate seating options, catering menus, and private-event capabilities.
