Its cost is what distinguishes it. This is, in my opinion, one of Fort Worth’s top restaurants for good dining at a reasonable price. When I went there for the first time, there were quite a few people waiting, but this was presumably because of the sizable party a company was hosting there. The service was excellent except from that.

Very cute place for a brunch spot, fine crafted food which was delicious. Booked a reservation and go seated next to the water- beautiful view. Just took off a star because for us, service took a long time from the time we came in. However when brought up the staff was very sweet and was served right away. Overall experience was very pleasant and would recommend!

Compliments to the chef. Chef Kate and I had a wonderful Sunday brunch at our first visit to Cafe Modern. Not only was breakfast Woburn we also met some a beautiful couple who were dining there. We will definitely be back for more.

Cafe Modern is exactly what you’d expect from a restaurant in an art museum. Chic & beautiful, the ambiance is incredible. The thing that sets it apart is its price. I’d say this is one of the cheapest fine dining options I’ve seen in Fort Worth and one of the best in terms of cuisine. My first time in there was rather long wait times but this was probably due to the huge party an organization was throwing inside. Other than that the service was great. The chef and manager are both quite nice. Plus this is the only cafe I know that has a pet duck.

What an incredible and pleasant surprise, this dining experience was! How about that view huh!? We dined here prior to attending the movie right next door in the Magnolia, at the Modern. We weren’t familiar with their menu prior to attending, and quite honestly, we were not expecting much on choice or quality. I mean come on…it’s inside an Art Gallery right? WRONG, so wrong… The choices were many, original, and there is a reason the Chefs name’s are placed on that menu! Unbelievable presentation, flavors, and textures. It was nothing like we expected! We ended up ordering the Potato and Leek Soup, Mushroom Risotto, and the Celery Root Agnolotti. Wowsers! What a treat and perfect pairing for our Friday date night! Do yourself a favor and go support your local art scene, and dine like you deserve too.

My family recently took me to Cafe Modern on a beautiful Sunday Morning to celebrate my birthday with brunch. This restaurant is relaxing and perfect for family/friends meeting to catch up with each other. The meal began with some scrumptious breakfast breads. I ordered the entree of two eggs any style, which for me is two eggs over medium and that came with crispy potatoes, whole wheat toast and bacon. I also ordered some delicious cold orange juice. Others in my party ordered the Belgian Waffle and the Omelet of the day. Our food was very good and quite filling. Our server was friendly, helpful and gracious. Nice and relaxing atmosphere, good food and Great people to converse with. ⭐Winner in my book.⭐

Went here early December 2021, after hearing Cafe Modern opened up their dinner dining option again. I made a reservation for 2 in advance, and got there a bit early to check out the exhibits before eating. The views were really special, and perfect since I wanted a holiday-related outing
