Annie AlfstadOctober 27, 2014Food is good but for the price a little overrated. Beautiful place. Love the moma.
Simon BuckinghamJuly 8, 2012Bring a jacket/ cardigan as the AC is on VERY high during the Summer ;-)
SarahNovember 7, 2012Maybe Danny Meyer and I just don't mix. But this, like all the others, seems to over promise and under deliver. But if you're trying to impress, few places are more show-y in midtown.
Michele CenzerJune 5, 2011Mushroom soup is excellent. Citrus carpaccio is delicious. The spaetzle was a tad salty.
Ya Fen WongAugust 31, 2018The 8 course meal was not filling. We expected a filling and tasty experience. Better luck next time...elsewhere.
Kumiko IDecember 18, 2010Sit at the bar, and enjoy a proper lunch (with a cocktail or two.. I won't tell on you).
Pamela GleesonMay 13, 2010Course One - The perfect Wid Mushroom Soup and Riesling! Love The Modern, dine here every time we visit NYC.
BLOUIN ARTINFOJune 15, 2010Begin or end your MoMA trip at this award-winning restaurant, which showcases German artist Thomas Demand. Look closely - the forest is not real but created with 270,000 intricate paper leaves. Read more

Ashley YueOctober 13, 2014Expensive and shitty food. Ordered crispy chicken that looks like fried chicken you can get from fast food restaurant.... Portion is small and so not worth 30 bucks at all. Not recommended.
Belinda ChangJuly 19, 2010the address is actually: 9 W 53rd, 11 W is the education address for the museum...
- Kenny TApril 11, 2010Food is very small portioned. The pork belly, trout tartare and cheesecake dishes are unbelievable!!!!
