The real draw here is the bar, which has marvelous views of Central Park to the north, or down into luxe apartments across Broadway to the east.

The spare dining room at Robert is on the building's ninth floor. At night, it can be seen glowing from the sidewalks of Columbus Circle.

Restaurant Associates opened the Wright, Guggenheim Museum, 1071 Fifth Avenue (88th Street), (212) 427-5690, thewrightrestaurant.com, in the basement of the Guggenheim at the end of 2009. The space is a striking homage to its namesake, the architect Frank Lloyd Wright, who designed the museum.
