First stop while visiting MoMA to fuel up before heading into the museum. Wasn’t sure upon arrival if you can get there without going through the museum..and I think you maybe able to. We took the long way around. Had reservations for 11:30 and was there for about 1.5 hours. Very simple decor and the seating was nice. If it wasn’t so hot outside would have enjoyed the patio seating…just too humid for that. By the time we left, they were pretty packed.

Great place for a small lunch while visiting the MOMA. Food was delicious. Staff was attentive. It was a little pricey, but worth it for how convenient it is. I wish I got more pictures of the atmosphere and decor. It was beautiful. Indoor and outdoor seating available. We went on a busy July day at lunch time and there was no wait for a table.

It’s was overall a positive experience. If you are in MOMA and want to have something to eat it’s a good alternative. I’ve had the Lyonnaise salad which was refreshing and delicious. The service was a bit slow unfortunately but the staff is sweet.

Nice place to stop and relax while at MoMA. Food is great and portions are just enough to stay on that museum grind. If you eat at the counters there are ample charging ports for your phone.

Lemon tart was delicious and refreshing. Chocolate tart was bit too strong and thick for me. Love the vibe here so relaxing. A little pricey overall. Outdoor seating area is pretty cool and quiet (but outdoor chairs don’t have cushions and hard to sit). They accept mobile payment.

I had lunch at this cafe, because I didn’t feel like leaving the museum and wasting time on looking for a place to eat. It’s very stylish and artsy place, the menu however didn’t have any warm vegetarian dishes on it.

Passable experience. I got a single iced tea but was forced by the server to tip a whole dollar (minimum) for this $4 drink. Iced tea was cold, bitter without syrup
