Spotted by Locals - city guides by localsSeptember 30, 2013It’s never too packed since it’s located in Midtown, the screen is the largest in New York, and the plush seats make it a perfect spot to settle in for a few hours Read more
Glen KinnairdJanuary 4, 2015Fresh Popcorn and the largest screen in town. The amazing sound are the reasons to see Into the Woods here.
This movie theater is grand in every way. Its presentation, history and staff. One of the last one screen theatres left in New York City. Been going here since I was 12. Don't let this place close!
a rSeptember 5, 2012Got to watch early screening of 'The Words' in this beautiful royal theater. i'm not sure if this place works as a regular movie theater but will back here for sure to sit in this huge theater!
Florenz would be proud to have his name on this wonderful movie theater. Huge screen, comfy seats and a great staff make this my go to theater in NYC.
Shayan SanyalAugust 4, 2013Best cinema in New York City by a long shot. Feel on top of the world with a balcony seat!
My favorite theatre in New York. Don't be intimidated by the inside, the best seat is in the middle of row 6.

Helen SJanuary 26, 2012supposedly the biggest screen in America? fun to watch epic movies in this massive, velvet-curtained space. visit the famous chicken & rice cart on 53rd & 6th ave afterwards.

ScoutmobNovember 28, 2011Go big or go home: Ziegfeld Theatre is adorned with red carpeting, gold trim, and just so happens to be the biggest screen in the city.
Nicole HMay 21, 2013Beautiful, classic theater. Hope it never changes (except they can add an ICEE machine)
WalterMasterson.comNovember 15, 2012The best seats are on the far left and right aisles. Don't sit in the middle center, way too huge for that.
Michael DApril 16, 2013I like coming here, the size of the auditorium gives you great views from anywhere your sitting.
Check out the old photos of the original Ziegfeld girls in the lobby and on the stairs
James MonaghanNovember 29, 2010Hands down the best theatre in town - not a bad seat in the house. Skip the box office line and order tickets from movietickets.com
Raphael ChunMarch 11, 2014You haven't watched a movie in New York City until you've watched one here!

Popcorn = great! Seating = great! Screaming kids during a Disney movie... so so. Overall, worth the marked up price.
Lisa VeldkampMay 27, 2011Absolutely beautiful theatre! If you have the chance, go see a movie here!!
Vanilla Macias-RodriguezJune 25, 2010Gorgeous theatre. It's the way movies should be seen. No sticky floor, just elegance and a gigantic screen.
James La PorteSeptember 28, 2010If the movie you want to see is showing here and you don't see it at the Zig, you're crazy
MundoFoxMay 16, 2012Follow the conversation on Twitter with hashtag #FoxHispanicMediaUpfront see you there!
Mack ElderMarch 26, 2010Keep your eyes open for the infrequent classic screenings. There's nothing like catching "Singin' in the Rain" or "Back to the Future" on this screen.
LouisSeptember 9, 2012Paul Thomas Anderson's new film "The Master" opens at the Ziegfeld on 9/21 in a 70mm print!
Biggest screen in NYC. And spot for many premieres, hello star sightings!

"Impressive collection, beautiful sculpture garden. All that you can hope for in a museum. The 5th floor cafe is pricey, but the food is very good and the view on the balcony is worth the price."
