    Modern Italian

    The wraparound terrace on the 26th floor of The Murray is the first thing anyone mentions, and for good reason: the Central skyline unspools in every direction. Inside, this Italian restaurant trades the views for colourful artwork and afternoon light, though the kitchen takes itself seriously regardless. The weekend disco brunch has its own reputation. A vegan menu runs alongside the Italian main event, which leans modern without losing the thread.

Eat Score

The score comes from the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin star outweighs a listicle. When you sort by what's nearby, distance changes the order, never the score.

      Stay Score

      Four fifths of the score is the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin Key outweighs a listicle. The last fifth is where it is: the ranked places to eat and things to do around it, and how safe the country is. When you sort by what's nearby, distance from you changes the order, never the score.

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. The places are 60% of it: the best of what's within reach, weighed by distance. The setting is the other 40%: how life goes in that country (how people rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are) and what it's like right there (the air, and the weather). If the score looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
