@AriannaVarella: Wow, request a table by the window. Maybe the best view in NYC with live music. Definitely the only restaurant with a 5 star feel at an amazingly reasonable price. Perfect for a romantic date.
Natalia Quintero: More of a dinner spot, very reasonably prices, great wine list and lovely views of central park. Go around sunset and ask for a window seat in advance!

Angela: Great set up- All seats are truly good seats with good views!
Angela Robb: Don't be worried about seating. The theatre is so small every seat is a good seat. I sat in the very last row and my view was perfect. Nothing was obstructed and I could perfectly see the actors.
Jx C: Classic theatre, seats are firm, good view from almost everywhere.

Lauren Kuckelman: Yes, seats are cramped together!! We are 3rd row front Mezzanine. Amazing view!!!!!!
Ryan: Front mezzanine is great because you can see the whole stage really well, especially above it which is used a lot! The bottom floor underneath it has an obstructed view.
Danni G: This is the best play best seats are the front Mezzanine so you get a great view of chandelier coming down
Cheryl Noga: Walter Kerr has very tight seating side to side. Seats were comfy and great view of stage from rear orchestra seats. I would highly recommend A Little Night Music. Great Show!
Juliana Stock: Center mezz fab view. Bernadette peters is why musical theatre exists. Shes achingly heartbreaking and intuitively funny, witty spot on timing. Brilliant!
Pat Dwyer: The mezzanine seating here is the best view of the stage.

Nathan Gammie: Front row balcony has great views at a low price. Big theater, but very classic feel to the whole place.
Michelle: Aladdin is an amazing show but try to avoid balcony seating. It's nice to have the birds eye view and see how the contraptions of the sets work, but seats are very squished.
Ailie Chang: Great view from Center Orchestra Row Q. Close enough to see actors facial expressions and far enough to see entertainment of the whole stage. Aladdin was fantastic!
