The Moderne

The Write-Up

The full story

The Moderne is the Mills 50 art deco cocktail room, swanky and theatrical with gold lines and tableside smoke. The smoked old fashioned arrives with ceremony, the Woman in White is the signature pour, and the plates run creative, from Korean vodka pasta to duck wontons and miso cream noodles. The room feels young and vibrant, though parking nearby can be tight.
