Reviews
"It was yummy, 4.8 out of 5 stars. I really enjoyed this restaurant. The food was yummy, the drinks were tasty, but the service definitely made the night. They brought us more brioche for eggs on eggs on eggs dish, and more bread with cranberry spread (delicious) as well. The bathrooms are fun, co-ed with enclosed bathroom stalls. At the end, our server took us on a quick kitchen tour. There's a Chef's table back there for those that are interested. Non-descript entrance btw, easy to miss. I will be back ^_^"
"This is for The Bar Room, not The Modern. Favorites from restaurant week: Sunshine soup with scallop, lobster tagliolini, rice custard. Price was a steal for the quality and service. Honeyed was a delicious cocktail. Busy midtown upscale vibe. Would return!"
"It was a great experience! Our lovely hostess was Jenna truly delightful person made sure our food is catered to us and made it Halal friendly, no pork no alcohol no gelatine. Before our dessert Jenna brought to us a complimentary sorbet which was refreshing and complimentary chocolate to go. We had the tasting menu it was delicious and the service was great."
"Hands down, one of the best dining experiences I've ever had. I waited tables all through college and the service here was next level. They didn't miss a thing. And the food...just magnificent. We did the chef's tasting menu and the wine pairing and it was expensive, but well worth it. Not sure that we'll be making a return trip because of the price but it was something that everyone should splurge on at least once."
"A truly exceptional meal—perhaps the first true two-star Michelin experience we’ve had in Manhattan (surpassing other 3* in NYC earned through celebrity and not substance). All around an absolute pleasure for all the senses.There were several twists that worked very well like bringing the bread after the third course. Another was the diversity of the servers presenting the dishes while still maintaining our head server’s role prominently—it felt very appropriate in a city like NYC. This paired well with the flawless composition and execution of the dishes and the serene yet sensory rich atmosphere. Two stars fully earned!!!"
