New York HabitatDecember 19, 2011The dress code is formal and as such you can expect an exquisite dining experience here. Perfect for a pre-theater meal.
The Corcoran GroupMarch 12, 2012A grand, elegant and mature way to enjoy a meal before a night at the opera. Enjoy their seasonal pre-curtain prix-fixe menu – the mushroom bisque and the crab cakes were divine.- danesh jDecember 24, 2014Don't do a full meal for intermission. Not enough time to chat and eat. Do a drink and dessert. Second intermission is more intimate.
James SimsJanuary 25, 2012The Grand Tier at Lincoln Center's Metropolitan Opera House is a shrine to elegance and artistry.
Derek ChenNovember 24, 2013Put in an order for dessert at start of performance and enjoy it during intermission!
