Fodor's Review:
Almost a sister in spirit to the Hotel Aleph, a new favorite of the design trendoisie located across the street, Moma is modern, moody, and very "concept." The design palette looks to nature, with dark-wood tables, subtle lighting, dark comfy leather chairs, and a soothing palette of gray on the geometric-patterned walls. The menu has hits and misses, and attempts to raise the nouvelle bar in Rome -- -foie gras millefoglie with apple slices and cider vinegar geleé, anyone? Seared scallops, plump and sweet, were a find, seared and served with steamed potato slices and raspberry vinegar. A mixed plate of raw fish allowed the fresh seafood to shine, although it desperately needed some salt and olive oil. The rigatoni all'amatriciana were tasty. And the main plate of Argentinian rib eye with balsamic vinegar was delicious, although the potatoes on the side, specifically billed as croccante (crispy) were soggy. There are several basic desserts, of which the molten chocolate cake (again, we know, we know) is probably the best, with pear sorbetto and chocolate sauce.
