What people say about The Modern
All guests seem to be talking about the view of the sculpture garden, elegant service, and an interesting menu that does not become too complicated for the guests to understand. The Bar Room is well liked because it gives more freedom to the customers compared to the tasting room, and fish, pasta, duck, and desserts seem to be common food items that get mentioned a lot. Some customers feel that the restaurant can become expensive very fast.
About The Modern
The Modern is located in the complex of the Museum of Modern Art at 9 West 53rd Street. In the restaurant itself, there is a refined experience of tastings according to the season, whereas The Bar Room offers contemporary American dishes à la carte with a view of MoMA’s Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Sculpture Garden.
For visitors who are planning to spend their day in a museum in Midtown, the Bar Room should be chosen since it is more flexible and appropriate for both lunch and dinner. The cuisine includes very sophisticated cooking techniques with familiar ingredients, such as raw scallops and steak tartare, as well as duck, salmon, and dessert dishes. Reservations can be made 28 days in advance, and walk-ins are also possible in the Bar Room.
