Behold the sweeping views of Central Park from this bright, sexy setting on the 9th floor of the Museum of Art and Design. Be sure to request seating near the north-facing, floor-to-ceiling windows. The interior is almost as pleasing to the eye: cheery splashes of fuchsia and orange perk up a sleek space, where transparent bucket seats, clear-topped tables, and contemporary art installations beautifully reflect the museum to which it belongs. Drop in for lunch, afternoon tea, or dinner for the likes of tuna carpaccio pizza sprinkled with trout caviar, spicy aïoli, and cucumber; tagliatelle with juicy lamb meatballs, fresh mint, and grated ricotta salata; or sweet and sour braised veal breast atop mashed cauliflower dabbed with quince relish.
