We had a fabulous time. Great food, friendly service and helpful course by course wine selection. Would go back in a second.

I approached dinner in this restaurant with some trepidation -- the old adages about food in museums, restaurants on the water etc. I could not have been more wrong. Imaginative menu, creatively divided into three sections creating a tapas type format. It worked out great for our group. Friendly, bright service and the food was downright good.

We often have lunch at the Bar of the Modern. We like the location, and the food is very unusual and out of the ordinary. It is a lively place and fun to go to.

They said that this was in case we were late,they would charge a certain amount on the card. When I asked my reasonable question that if we came... More

I went here on a Wed night, early dinner reservation. Other than serving the first dish before we finished our first cocktail (we had wine paired w/ each course so we ended up having a glass of wine AND a half full cocktail for the first dish).... The service and attention to detail by the staff was excellent, unbeatable. The... More
