Modern Steak is the steak house for ladies who lunch. The color scheme is pretty with mirrors and chandeliers everywhere. As you would expect from a Sam Fox creation, the menu is innovative yet familiar feeling. There's nothing here that will challenge a true foodie, but the food is a good mix of steakhouse with salads. The potted lobster is divine as is the steak carpaccio. The night we went, the rib eye was well marbeled and delectable. (The price was a little steep, but then again, you are next to Barneys). The desserts are much too sweet. Plan on sharing if you must indulge. You might be better off finishing the meal with a glass of ice wine or port instead. (One of the very few restaurants I've seen to offer Vidal ice wine on its menu). The bar in the front portion of the restaurant is also very pretty. It caters to a group of business types and the drinks are pretty standard. Overall, I'd give this place a four. It's like a more expensive version of Arrogant Butcher.
