    Gaspar R.

    Love this restaurant they always makes me feel like I'm at a relatives house. Because of this crazy virus we weren't able to enjoy the great sit down service they provide. The restaurant offers take out during this time so we decided to order to support our local businesses during this hardship, can't wait to get back to a normal life. During normal times the restaurant is a great place to have a great Italian meal.

    Happy BURFDAE Cheesecake !!

    Great meal. Excellent service. A much more "adult" atmosphere then your typical Westchester family style eatery. Will return.

We ordered one of their pies half pesto and half fried eggplant -- such a good combo. The eggplant was perfectly crisp, and the pesto paired with pickled onions was an unexpected but delicious collab. We also had the beet salad with ricotta, which was fresh and flavorful. The mix of yellow and red beets with the citrus vinaigrette was light, bright, and balanced beautifully with the creamy ricotta. Even though the place was busy, the service was great. Our server was attentive and consistently checked in to make sure everything was going well. The decor has such a nostalgic feel -- it reminded me of growing up surrounded by vintage photos and memorabilia. Overall, a really solid spot for great pizza, good vibes, and attentive service. Would definitely go back!

    Disappointed by the experience -- not what we've come to expect from The Modern…read more The four of us have been to The Modern many times and usually enjoy sitting at the bar for a more relaxed experience. Last night, however, was deeply disappointing. From the start, there was pressure to place food orders quickly, even though we were just settling in. We did order appetizers and later entrees--not an unreasonable timeline--but it felt like we were being hurried for no reason. The real issue came when we ordered a gluten-free pizza with toppings. What was delivered was essentially a round piece of bread with toppings -- not remotely what we expected. We tried several times to flag down the bartender, who proved extremely difficult to get the attention of. When we finally spoke to him and explained the error, the pizza was taken back, but then... nothing. We waited. And waited. More than 30 minutes passed while the rest of us finished our meals -- and still no replacement pizza. When we brought it up again, the bartender's attitude was indifferent at best. Frustrated, I went to the hostess stand and explained the situation. To their credit, the response was immediate: a manager stepped in, apologized, offered a round of drinks on the house, and ensured the corrected dish came out quickly. That level of service--from the manager and hostess--was appreciated and helped salvage the evening, but the overall experience was the worst we've ever had at The Modern. We may go back, but it will be with hesitation. The service at the bar needs serious attention. A restaurant of this caliber should never let service--or guest experience--slip this far.

All aspects of this visit were spot on: Kind and caring service, excellent food quality, and good value. The pacing of the dinner was also right on- not too fast, not too slow- just right. Dinner starts with a green salad with house dressing and a selection of Italian breads. This is old school Italian service which seems to be going away. as many restaurants regrettably skip on the bread delivery these days. Everyone enjoyed their entrees- Chicken parm, Shrimp Parm, Penne Ala Vodka, Grilled chicken with Broccoli Rabe and the house specialty- shrimp and veal Fratelli- one of the better entrees I have had in a long while. The potato croquettes were a great accompaniment for this dish to enjoy the sauce/gravy. Dessert included perhaps the largest selection ever (a positive) was available along with pictures. The Italian cheesecake was also large and excellent. Hot expresso with anisette was served. The service team here is well trained and on their toes. I can't believe that I didn't know of this place sooner- a true neighborhood gem. They also seemed to be doing a robust take away business...
