    This was our second time dining at Café modern and the second time we’ve had Jeanette as a server, she was just as pleasant and kind as we remember. Food was fantastic, and the ambience was a huge plus.

    Treated my wife, mom, daughter in law, and daughter to lunch, followed by a show at Casa Manana theater. The girls loved it and said Cafe Modern was the perfect pregame to the show!

    Lovely dinner at Cafe Modern. Food and service did not disappoint. Wolfgang Puck’s menu had something for everyone in our group. Service was friendly and on point. The dining room view never disappoints. A wonderful finish to a lovely afternoon at the museum!
