Best Place Score

The Best Place Score is the score we give to the place you're searching from, based on how cool we think the area around it is. If it seems unreasonably low, we probably just haven't added a representative amount of awards yet.

Yumscore

The Yumscore represents our confidence that you'll have a good experience getting something yummy. This raw score is based on awards it's won, and the score on a "Near Something" page represents the score, mixed with a proximity modifier.

Stayscore

The Stayscore represents our confidence that your stay will be an excellent one.

  1. The Bar Room at the Modern

    The dining room floats within MoMA's architectural clarity, all clean lines and sculptural views. Here the kitchen constructs dishes of deliberate restraint—a seed cracker gilded with aged cheddar and butternut squash butter, turbot roasted on the bone in parmesan cream—each component audible in conversation. It is a place that understands that luxury, at its best, whispers.
