Well crafted cuisine in an iconic architectural landmark setting. The cocktail were equally well crafted, although slightly tart. The ambience was serene in the middle of the day, but active. The service, from the server to the host, was excellent. Both provided our party with excellent recommendations, were polished with clear diction, and provided attention at all the appropriate times. We would be happy to return,

オリジナルで個性的なお料理でした。大晦日の特別メニューで、うにやまぐろの前菜、かにとアボカドのタルトなどシーフードを中心にメインは和牛も選べました！とてもおしゃれなお客がほとんどで、日本人旅行者としては場違いな気もしましたが、スタッフも優しく、楽しめました！デザートも凝っていて、美味しかったです！

I dont usually give reviews and if I do, I like to give good reviews. However, I feel obliged to alert the public about this place. I would give it no stars if I could. I live in the area and stopped by for dessert with a friend and was extremely disappointed as they managed to get our very simple order wrong and our server Dylan didn't once stop by to apologize, this was surprising as it was a Sunday night and the place wasn't busy at all. We ordered 2 chamomile teas, which our server confirmed as we were ordering but instead, they brought us 2 verbena lemon teas. My friend thought the creme brulee she ordered was salty. To be fair, I enjoyed my hazelnut cream chocolate parfait dessert. We are Latinas and suspect that their extremely poor service was based on their quiet but, by their actions, very salient and loud racism. Especially our server Dylan who managed to get our order wrong and didn't apologize for it and didn't once stop by to see how we were doing. When they finally brought our chamomile teas, these didn't taste like chamomile but like plain water, even after having left the tea bags in the pot for a while. They seemed to have been used chamomile tea bags. My friend noticed our server was talking with a colleague while looking our way and laughing. I am sad to say but I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. Stay away.

Flora Bar's brunch had some interesting selections, including a seafood sausage composed of lobster, crab, scallops, and shrimp. The sausage was accompanied by cabbage poached in a vin jaune broth. Absolutely delicious. The cabbage had an amazing consistency, the vin jaune broth was heavenly, the sausage itself was perfectly cooked and full of flavor. Service was a little dilatory but accommodating and helpful. The light during the day, because of the huge windows, is great, even when the day is overcast.

Great cocktails and has the wonderful ambiance of the Met Breuer museum. Entrees are artistic and delicious. However, the experience is pricey so you might reserve this restaurant for a special occasion.

Don’t go for food. It’s a win because it’s inside the museum, looks lovely, close to the museum mile, and a great spot for a break or a date. The service is very intrusive, they don’t care if they interrupted your conversation, so don’t go on your first date. Go for drinks only. They have prices of an upscale restaurant that knows what it’s doing but it doesn’t really know what it’s doing- unless we want to know how to skillfully kill burrata, we don’t want to order their burrata salad.
