Amuse is a seasonal, farm to table driven restaurant, located on Level 3 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 art-filled surroundings, special exhibitions, and seasonality, while also carefully selecting only the finest ingredients from local vendors, artisans, and farmers.
