After 50 years across from Lincoln Center, Café Fiorello has brought its beloved Italian classics to the nation’s capital. As part of the Fireman Hospitality Group, founded by acclaimed restaurateur Shelly Fireman, we continue our tradition of warm hospitality and authentic Italian flavors. From our abundant vegetable antipasto bar to our signature thin-crust pizza, every dish is crafted with the same passion that has made us a New York institution. Over the years, we’ve had the pleasure of welcoming theatergoers, world travelers, business leaders, countless celebrities, and politicians from all sides of the aisle.

Our Food

Experience warm Italian hospitality from the moment you enter the doors along with our selection of hand-crafted pastas, famous veal chops and decadent desserts.

Each dish is prepared with flavors you’ll crave that are authentically Italian. 

The live-fire cooking with a wood-burning grill at the center of the restaurant imparts additional flavor to many of our dishes.
