Amuse is a seasonal, farm to table driven restaurant, located on the third floor of the museum. Whether you are dining in our main dining room, full-service bar, or our private dining room, you will be able to take in sweeping views of the Robins Sculpture Garden and the museum’s Cochrane Atrium. Our team works diligently to provide a menu that is directly inspired by the art-filled surroundings, current exhibitions, and seasonality while also carefully selecting only the finest ingredients from local vendors, artisans, and farmers. Just a friendly reminder that the museum does not allow balloons, confetti, glitter, plants potted with soil, and candles with open flames. If a date and time you seek for a reservation appears to be full, please give us a call so we can see what other times might be available.

    Our server Bryan was informed regarding the menu and helpful with deciding what to order. He was attentive but not intrusive. Good was delicious and came from the kitchen promptly. It was a wonderful experience as always and we will be back again soon.

    I've yet to have a poor experience or food at Amuse. Their rockfish and fries are legendary.
