The spiral-shaped Guggenheim building could host no ordinary restaurant, and the Wright rises to the design occasion: the sleek, curved, futurist space created by Andre Kikoski won a James Beard Award for Best Restuarant Design in 2010. The menu from Bouley alum Rodolfo Contreras is a simple seasonal American lineup. Should you pop in for lunch (the restaurant does not serve dinner) you might dine on seared scallops with peaches and arugula, organic chicken schnitzel, or risotto with zucchini, mascarpone, and macadamia nuts.
