MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

Despite its location in the Museum of Contemporary Art, Marisol is so much more than a museum food court. This restaurant takes its name from the late French pop art sculptor, whose work was the museum’s first acquisition.The local, seasonal, and sensible cooking appeals to all palates, though much of the menu focuses on vegetables. Start with the burrata, a ubiquitous dish ramped up here with blood orange segments, almond crumble, and vanilla oil. This kitchen grills a perfect steak sided by cauliflower in a bright and flavorful huckleberry vinaigrette. The earthy buttermilk rye cake is expertly balanced by creamy pumpkin mousse and a quenelle of Mexican hot chocolate ice cream. Hit the Counter for coffee, pastries, and quick bites on the go.
