I came first to this restaurant upon the signing of my lease here at one of the high rises in the area. What will you find here? First off, a great cocktail. Secondly, excellent service. Thirdly, very good food. There is a reason why they have been in business as long as they have been. The place is now decked out for Christmas— my favorite holiday. Have a look…

I really liked everything about the place. It’s pretty Westchester Italian, upscale but not over the top. Best meal (strip steak with potato croquette and string beans) I’ve had in ages. And while prices have kept up with inflation, they weren’t over the top, under $50 for entrees and under $20 for specialty cocktails (as of early 2026). The service was quick and efficient, friendly and attentive not sappy. And if you are sensitive to noise, the 2-story dining room allows noise to rise so even with giggling tipsy moms and high school kids in the next section it wasn’t too loud. Soundtrack of 80s pop rock fit the vibe. Holiday decorations looked good, tasteful. Really glad I stopped by. There is also a bar on the side if waiting. Might be worth checking into seeing if they take reservations if coming during a Thurs-Sat dinner. They seem to also have a brunch special which while pricey might be worth checking out.

Modern is one of those restaurants where you really need to know what to order. I’ve been there a few times, and while not every dish stands out, some are truly excellent—especially the scallops, burrata salad, lobster ravioli, and baked clams. The menu is large and can feel overwhelming. I tried a few items outside the highly recommended ones on Google, and those were more on the mediocre side. That said, the place has a great vibe, the staff is friendly, and it’s lively in a good way—unlike some other spots in the area.

What an incredible New Year’s Eve at Modern
From the moment we walked in, the energy was perfect—great crowd, great music, and an upscale vibe that really set the tone for ringing in the New Year the right way. The food and drinks were on point all night, and the atmosphere was lively without feeling overcrowded.
Huge shoutout to John, Sebastian, and Cesar they were absolutely outstanding. Attentive, professional, and genuinely made sure everyone was having an amazing time. Service like that takes the experience to another level.
If you’re looking for a spot in New Rochelle that knows how to throw a proper New Year’s party, Modern delivered across the board. Already looking forward to the next one.

Some very tasty dishes! Lobster ravioli was especially delicious. Had some other diners who were rude. Mussels in the appetizer was a bit overcooked.

I really like the decor and the service was good, very nice atmosphere overall. I was however, extremely disappointed in the food….my lasagna had what appeared to be a chopped up hamburger patty used for the meat, the sauce tasted like it was straight from a can….extremely overpriced for the quality. Visited from out of town and really wanted to try a non chain restaurant, but we all left feeling like Applebee’s or Texas Roadhouse would have satisfied our taste buds and pockets much better lol

Came here for a birthday soirée that was in a private room, the room was lovely and cozy and perfect for the event, the appetizers were great, the food was great the service was less then desirable. The cocktail menu was great and the drinks I actually got were divine but the wait for them and the mood of the server was less then desirable especially for a birthday party, she treated us as if we were a hindrance and we were bothering her by asking her for drinks. Usually, when booking a private party, you get the best of the best as your server if this was their best, it definitely was not good enough.

The food was excellent and the portions were generous. The drinks were really tasty and the wait staff was on point. It’s a good spot for a business meeting, or a nice little date.
