The Modern
The Modern showcases Chef Thomas Allan’s contemporary cooking in a modern setting overlooking MoMA’s Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Sculpture Garden. At dinner, we offer a guest-choice of two innovative tasting menus. At lunch, we offer a tasting menu and a three course prix fixe.
The Modern features Chef Thomas Allan's refined yet playful contemporary cooking as a three-course prix fixe, tailored to leisurely afternoons and busy meeting days alike.
An eight-course tasting menu is also available at lunch featuring fresh, seasonal cooking with a few twists to the standard format including some surprise and delight bites meant to be shared by the table.
