    Great experience! We were able to go to the viewing deck under 20mins. Perhaps the morning hours were not busy. Fantastic view if the city from the top, highly recommend!

    Seeing the city with a bird eye view was breathtaking. Being so close to the Chrysler building watching the rose gold light of the setting sun reflect off of The Chrysler building made it even more beautiful!! The staff was extremely helpful. And the pastrami sliders, mediterranean plate and cocktails were delicious! A definite must see when in New York City

    Simply amazing! It exceeded our expectations...we were able to make a memorable experience following a year of my daughter's sophomore year of college. So glad we took the time.
