Editing Windows on the World (section)

=== Reception ===
In its last iteration, Windows on the World received mixed reviews. [[Ruth Reichl]], a ''New York Times'' food critic, said in December 1996 that "nobody will ever go to Windows on the World just to eat, but even the fussiest food person can now be content dining at one of New York's favorite tourist destinations." She gave the restaurant two out of four stars, signifying a "very good" quality rather than "excellent" (three stars) or "extraordinary" (four stars).<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1997/12/31/dining/restaurants-food-that-s-nearly-worthy-of-the-view.html|title=Restaurants; Food That's Nearly Worthy of the View|last=Reichl|first=Ruth|date=December 31, 1997|work=The New York Times|access-date=February 22, 2018|language=en-US|issn=0362-4331}}</ref> In his 2009 book ''Appetite'', William Grimes wrote that "At Windows, New York was the main course."<ref>{{Cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=w9pLESNSYb8C&pg=PA281|title=Appetite City: A Culinary History of New York|last=Grimes|first=William|date=October 13, 2009|publisher=Farrar, Straus and Giroux|isbn=978-1-42999-027-1|pages=281|language=en}}</ref> In 2014, Ryan Sutton of ''[[Eater.com]]'' compared the now-destroyed restaurant's cuisine to that of its replacement, [[One World Observatory]]. He stated, "Windows helped usher in a new era of captive audience dining in that the restaurant was a destination in itself, rather than a lazy byproduct of the vital institution it resided in."<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://ny.eater.com/2015/6/30/8862293/one-world-trade-dining|title=Everything You Need to Know About Dining at One World Trade|last=Sutton|first=Ryan|date=June 30, 2015|work=Eater NY|access-date=February 22, 2018}}</ref>
