"The Bar Room's menu of small plates is already the favorite with diners, but both spaces have ravishing Danish modern settings and Meyer's famously perfect service."
"Side by side on the ground floor of the New York MoMA are two spots that compete for the title of the country's best museum restaurant."
"Created by James Beard Award-winning chef Gabriel Kreuther, the menu includes Alsatian-influenced small plates, large plates, and sharable “bites.”" Full review

""Pure class all the way", this Danny Meyer "triumph" is a "truly special" MoMA showcase for "inspired" French–New American cooking served by a "choreographed" team." Full review
"All über-clean lines, buzzing art hounds and pricey prix fixes. Room is stunning, and the food is so spectacular, inventive, and strong on seafood."
"In a clean, modern space at the Museum of Modern Art, overlooking the Sculpture Garden, this restaurant serves an impeccable array of New American and French cuisine."
2 Stars
"The refined yet brightly styled space is indeed very special, with a striking glass wall separating the more casual bar area from the chic formal dining room's tall orchids and towering beauty." Full review
"Architects Bentel & Bentel created The Modern's cool and subdued space of black and white and glass, leaving room for the food to express itself." Full review
"A less formal (and more affordable) counterpart to The Modern." Full review

"Andrew Carmellini's homage to American cuisine is really an encapsulation of recent food and dining trends... And it all works well at this SoHo restaurant." Full review
"Andrew Carmellini (also behind Tribeca’s buzzed-about Locanda Verde) hits all the right notes at this platonic ideal of the American bistro." Full review
"Chef Andrew Carmellini's "delish" riffs on American dishes draw "trendsetters" to this "fashionable" SoHo "winner"." Full review
Star
"Locally sourced produce and seasonal salads accompanying steaks, shellfish, hefty sandwiches, flavourful chilli, fried chicken and freshly baked pies."
14.0
"Carmellini does his best work with the gamier meats like squab, which he serves with seared foie gras, or pecan duck with dirty rice." Full review
"Here is where you want to be right now, all of you who care about good food and the theater of eating it." Full review
"Like the diverse crowd, the food—from virtuoso Andrew Carmellini—is eclectic: His rollicking menu reflects our increasingly free-form eating habits." Full review
Critic's Pick
"The big-ticket, gut-busting dish to have at the Dutch is the beautifully charred eighteen-ounce New York strip steak." Full review
"Fried chicken (lunch and late-night menus only) with fresh biscuits... steaks aged in-house and a daily rotation of both sweet and savory pies do right by their largely clichéd categories." Full review
7.8
"Celebs-a-plenty, The Dutch is a tried and true downtown Manhattan hot spot." Full review
