I am not a big opera fan. With that being said, it is a special place to take in an opera. The shows are always well done and entertaining. If you like opera, there is no place like it.
One of my favorite things to do in Manhattan during the winter, but because it is so expensive you really need to pick the shows you want to see. Make a night out of it and PLEASE get dressed up. It's a wonderful opportunity to look your best in this great opera house!
I have been to over 40 operas at the MET, and I am blown away each time! They attract the best artists, set designers, singers...
There are running translations in a few languages in front of every seat. The seats are comfortable enough, though tightly spaced.
The best part is that you don;t have to buy a $300 ticket to...

Gorgeous singing and for the ballet awesome. Great house and seeing American ballet theatre there is treat of all time. The best dancers, and for the opera the best singers

We go to the opera when we are in Italy... Milano, Roma, Padua. The Met is the best we have in America; we don't miss it every time we are in the city. The recent set decoration for Rigoletto was superb. If you have a chance, don't miss it.
It is all you think Opera will be! Productions that satisfy all your senses (smell not so much!) An opulent place to get lost for a few hours in the stunning music, costumes, set design and drama! Very expensive, of course, but worth it once or twice in a lifetime!
I had a fabulous time watching a few productions here. My only issue is that the lines are really long if you would like a drink at the bar. The seating is comfortable and parking convenient. I would go more often if I could!
