$$$$ In the historic Armory Square neighborhood of downtown Syracuse, the newly founded, diner-styled restaurant Modern Malt was created with the vision of bringing a flavorful approach to the classic local American diner scene. With a modern twist on food, cocktails, and culture, the mid-century designs and modern panache provide customers with a one of a kind experience. The restaurant and culture deliver unique and playful versions of elevated comfort cuisine, handcrafted artisanal cocktails, and a place where Motown Soul meets alternative rock and roll. Modern Malt houses comfortable outdoor seating, an outside bar, and an inventive shake menu. The establishment is also proud to support local brewers, distillers, winemakers, and coffee roasters.
