“Honestly pleasantly surprised! Or I’m biased because I love the decor so much.”

“Their eggs on eggs on eggs is one of their signature dishes and I have enjoyed it every time, but I will agree that the service was fine whenever I went.”

“the food was pretty good but not really memorable in my opinion.”

“Normally when you envision fine dining you think stiff, stuffy, and a bit pretentious but The Modern was a bit more relaxed, with no sacrifice to quality.”
H3
“The kitchen table experience at The Modern was fantastic and one of the more unique dining experiences in NYC. Incredible hospitality towards a curated visit, personalized attention in the kitchen and cooks/chefs were coming up throughout the meal to chat and answer any questions about the food and profession in general.”

“the sun choke soup with scallops and seaweed was delicious - i had no idea seaweed and scallops tasted so good together!”
H3
“Every course on every menu I've had at The Modern is great.”

“Between the cuisine and dining room, dinner at the Modern might be disappointing (but if it’s one your first experiences, it’s a good gateway).”

“I went to lunch there recently, and I thought the service was flawless. A gentleman removed a drooping flower from our table in such an unintrusive way that my dining partner didn't even notice. I thought the pace was perfect and the dishes outstanding.”
H3
“it was absolutely lovely. They were great about my allergies, gave us an extra dessert on the house, and sent us home with two boxes of complimentary chocolate truffles. Our server's name is escaping me, but he was incredibly charming, knowledgeable, and funny.”

“I've done the dinner tastings a couple times since and always find it disappointing compared to other 2\*s in the city.”

““Eggs on Eggs on Eggs” is my illustrated tribute to the iconic dish from The Modern, a 2 Michelin-starred restaurant located inside the MoMA. I had it on a special night and couldn’t stop thinking about how playful and beautifully layered it was.”
H3
“The food was… ok. I was looking forward to the eggs on eggs on eggs but it didn’t live up to the hype. The rest was nothing particularly exciting or memorable. One of the desserts was so bad (a peach ice cream) that we left it practically untouched, without any follow up from the staff.”
H3
“most of the food I had at modern cleared it because they were more seasonal and balanced creations. I find eggs on eggs to be overtly rich and taste a bit like a bland jalapeño popper.”
H3
“Food-wise, nothing I could fault really. Good flavors and fair portions for the price.”

“I suggest The Modern. It'll have the professionalism and finesse of Daniel with a bit more of Atera's creativity but in a more pleasant atmosphere.”

“If you're ok not doing sushi, make a reservation at The Modern and do the restaurant week menu! Fancy atmosphere, but a reasonable-ish price tag.”
H2
“The modern with a wine pairing - hands down.”
H2
“Both are excellent. Take a look at the menus as they are different. If you love fine dining the Modern is excellent; if the menu doesn’t seem like something you’d like or you want a lower price point the Bar Room is also excellent.”
H2
“Love the Modern. The food is fantastic, beautifully plated and the crowd is interesting to watch.”
H2
“I’d start at The Modern. Say what you will about Danny Meyer, but the service at USHG restaurants is always top tier, with a warm quality that takes down the intimidation factor.”
H2
“We ate in the Bar Room not the tasting menu. It was also exceptional. The milk bread with everything seasoning blew my mind soooo yummy.”
H2
“I’d suggest the Modern at MoMA. You can sit on the “bar room” side, which is still less formal than the dining room. It’s chic but not stuffy.”
H2
“They far outclass others in a similar price range.”
H2
“The Modern is a great treat. The service is fantastic. So many courses to try.”
