Cafe 2
Located on the second-floor, Cafe
2 is taking the museum cafeteria to sophisticated new heights.
Executive Chef Meg Grace offers guests the rustic Italian cooking
of the Roman "cantinetta" or "rosticceria,"
serving an array of delicious and seasonal Italian foods, including
handmade pastas, cured salumi, artisanal cheeses, panini, salads,
soups, and simple desserts. Orders are placed and paid for at the
counter, and then plated and served to guests at communal tables.
Museumgoers can also take a quick break at the Espresso Bar to relax
and recharge after an enriching day of viewing art. (An espresso
and gelato bar is available seasonally in the sculpture garden.)
