Great for the value! I was still close enough to see facial expressions and the sound was great. Leg room was sufficient enough for someone 6' but not overly generous.
GREAT seats - I have a clear view of the whole stage. The leg space is a bit tight, but that’s to be expected everywhere I’m sure.

Awesome seats and the sound was great! It’s right on the end for easy access and our view was not obstructed in any way. It’s a bit tight on leg space (and I have short-ish legs) but I expect that’s the norm.
Not a lot of legroom but a perfect view of everything. Over 6'2" might have a different rating but perfect for me

Pretty good seats for General Rush. Could see the entire stage/show except for one tiny 30 second moment which I couldn't see. I would prefer center section, but this was still really great and worth the price I paid.
Good seats. Must find at a discount. You're nuts to pay over $100. Front row. Seat 21 is the end. Way off center. You're closer than you'd think. You're above the 10th row or so in the orchestra. Seats in the rearmost side box are comparable. Not too much leg room for a front row. No need to look down and strain. A good spot to look if you don't like people in front of you or if you like the aisle. Update at intermission: seats uncomfortable. Pitiful legroom. Knees at 35 degree angle all show. Can't put feet underneath anything or stretch legs.
These were great seats. There isn't a lot leg room at all. My knees will probably be bruised from the seat in front. But you can tolerate it. I purposely planned to avoid the bathroom having read so many stories about people missing the 1st half of 2nd act
Partial view - can't see the left 1/4 of the stage, including the counter in the diner. Most of the scenes take place on the 3/4 of the stage that are visible.

Amazing view, dead center. Didnt feel like I was far back at all.
Brilliant view, you won't miss anything sat here. Not much legroom, seats are quite narrow. Not bad at 50% off at the TXTS booth, you have a great view.

You miss a lot that happens on the left side of the stage from this seat.

Could see the whole stage - no important things missed. Definitely close enough to see all of the emotion in the performance.

Not bad, not great. Definitely partial view for Waitress (couldn’t see anything far SR including half of the diner counter). But it was a Rush Ticket and only $40, so...fair trade.
Partial View. Full View of the on stage band, but missed a bit of what happened in the diner. Great view of the actors, for the most part. These seats would be amazing in Orchestra Right, as you don't need to see the band, who were at times distracting.
Good view - only missed seeing one part of the action at the counter, and it was fine. This seat also gave me some good leg room. It’s the front row all the way on the left side.
Great seat, no problem with being too close for this show

Fantastic unobstructive view. Seats are actually closer than it appears in the pictures. Would book same seats (K2, K4) again. I've been to multiple broadway shows and this theater has very little seat wiggle room and leg room. Avoid bringing large bag
The view was actually better than it seems in the picture. Although the ticket wasn't marked as Obstructed View, it sold at the price of an obstructed view seat and was technically one. However, the only thing that was obstructed was the onstage band!
Great close up seat for this show. Got to see the amazing Katharine McPhee and all of her facial expressions, tears, etc! It is a side seat so you couldn't always see every piece of the action, but a great up-close seat!
Fantastic view of the stage, very cramped seats though.

Rush ticket seating for Waitress on Broadway -- Partial View. Overall a good seat for the price! Sometimes missing stuff in the corner but never the most important topic of the musical.

The band is in the back right corner on stage, so that's really the only thing you can't see.
Great slight-lines and awesome unobstructed view. But know that the banister in front curves around and juts into your legroom. I have small legs so it was OK but regular-sized legs will be uncomfortable I imagine.

AMAZING SEATS such a great show. Looking around from my seat, the theatre is very small thus no seat is a bad seat! (even if you’re in the last row of the mezzanine) I could see everything clearly.

Good view of the stage. Seats in this mezz are a little closer to one another so you get a bit of obstruction if a human giraffe is in front of you.
Fantastic view for rear mezzanine. Adequate leg room.

These seats were great very tiny theater even the last one wouldn’t be bad they were steep so even if someone tall sits in front of you you still get a very clear view
Amazing seat! So much legroom, for tall people like me this was one of the best seats on Broadway!!!!!

It is even better than the picture shows! I was originally scared that this would be too far back but boy was I wrong! I could clearly see the actor's expressions. Theatre is small with limited leg room. In front of row E is an aisle

Leg room is a little tight but still enough for me at 6’3”. Great view of the stage.
Great seats! This is the first row in the section. It is labeled "Center Mezzanine", but it is the first row of the Rear Mezzanine. Could see all of the action on stage clearly, but when people came in late, they would walk right in front of you.
Great view of the whole stage! Last row in mezzanine but it still wasn't too far away and you don't have to worry about anyone kicking the back of your seat. overall great seat!!

Full view of the stage! Highly recommended.
Front row meazzanine with a perfect view! Steep steps to get down to the seats, though. Also, very tight seats.
Only place w good leg room is lower Mezz!!
Perfect seat! However little leg room.
Great for the value! I was still close enough to see facial expressions and the sound was great. Leg room was sufficient enough for someone 6' but not overly generous.

This Seat is Amazing!!!!
Great seats! Could actually see the expression on the performers faces. Seats were a little tight.
Great view

Amazing Seat.
Excellent seat. Amazing view.
excellent view of stage
Amazing seat! The theatre is small enough that even from this far you can see everything!
Perfect view
Amazing seat!
Amazing fourth row seat, great view of both sides of the stage. An amazing seat for such an amazing show
Perfect view! As long as no one tall is in front of you, it's definitely not a bad seat!
Excellent seat! Dead center. Purchased at TKTS
Excellent seats to see an excellent musical!
The perfect seat
Perfect! Very comfortable too!
don't get a tall head otherwise not worth the price!

Great view but the kitchen and far back where slightly obstructed.

Partial view seat but only thing that wasn't visible was inside/kitchen part of diner.
Great aisle seat with still no legroom. Miss a little bit of stage right but still a great view
Great view!
Saw everything. Much more to the left the back of the diner counter would have been cut off, but nothing was obstructed here.
seat 9 has a great view of stage, seats 11 & 13 are slightly partial view
Completely missed the diner counter, but since only 2 things happen there visually and this was a Rush seat, it was worth it
Great aisle seat!
Partial View. Full View of the on stage band, but missed a bit of what happened in the diner. Great view of the actors, for the most part. These seats would be amazing in Orchestra Right, as you don't need to see the band, who were at times distracting.
Great view - seat in slightly on an angle so the person in front of you doesn't block your view
Great seat, super close to the stage. The diner scenes were only slightly obstructed but it didn’t take away from the experience.
Great seat from TKTS! Wouldn't go any closer than this. This view was incredible, felt super into the action!
We had seats 9 and 11 in row M and the view was great. We were able to see everything from our seats.
Perfect aisle seat!
Good view - only missed seeing one part of the action at the counter, and it was fine. This seat also gave me some good leg room. It’s the front row all the way on the left side.

Awesome seats for a awesome musical!
Great seat, no problem with being too close for this show
Fantastic unobstructive view. Seats are actually closer than it appears in the pictures. Would book same seats (K2, K4) again. I've been to multiple broadway shows and this theater has very little seat wiggle room and leg room. Avoid bringing large bag
Great view. Leg room is TIGHT! If you're tall, be sure to get an end seat. I'm 6 foot 4 and there is no way I could have sat in an inner seat.
Great seats! I could see everything perfectly!
Amazing seat! Perfect view. Tiny theater.
The view was actually better than it seems in the picture. Although the ticket wasn't marked as Obstructed View, it sold at the price of an obstructed view seat and was technically one. However, the only thing that was obstructed was the onstage band!
Absolute back right corner of the orchestra, but considering it's only row P it's still really close. I would sit here and not complain any day!
iPhone 6, no zoom; full view - higher number seats and you would start missing part of the stage
Great seat! You could see everything!
A sliver of the right side of the stage is blocked
Great close up seat for this show. Got to see the amazing Katharine McPhee and all of her facial expressions, tears, etc! It is a side seat so you couldn't always see every piece of the action, but a great up-close seat!
Amazing unobstructed seats. Perfect view, could see everyone and everything. Right under mezzanine overhang.
Great seats!
Good view
Amazing seat for an amazing show
Fantastic view of the stage, very cramped seats though.
Rush ticket seating for Waitress on Broadway -- Partial View. Overall a good seat for the price! Sometimes missing stuff in the corner but never the most important topic of the musical.
The band is in the back right corner on stage, so that's really the only thing you can't see.
Great view (4th seat in from the aisle)
Perfect seat with perfect sightlines. Being on the aisle helps in this cramped theater.
Partial view, can't see the band or the diner sign. Best side for a partial view though.
Definitely partial view ... some important moments are missed
Amazing seat! Could see everything. Plus, right by the exit so easy to get a good spot at the stagedoor after the show.
fantastic seats!
Got this ticket at the TKTS Booth. The view was incredible, didn’t miss a thing!

Perfect view. Decent leg room.
This is a pretty small theater by Broadway standards; don't think there's a bad seat in the house. Very small seats.
Little legroom but good view of stage
These seats were amazing! This theatre is nice and cozy and I could see everything that was going on from these seats. Easy in and out too.
Very good seat! The leg room is ok and the view is great because there's an aisle ahead. I got it with a discount code.
Awesome view. Can see everything perfectly. But the seats are cramped.
Fantastic view for rear mezzanine. Adequate leg room.
Great view! Could see everything clearly
These seats were great very tiny theater even the last one wouldn’t be bad they were steep so even if someone tall sits in front of you you still get a very clear view
Row is behind an aisle, so lots of leg room. They do have pipe/draping just in front of seat, which hits about knee height. Great view!
Excellent view and don't feel far from the stage.
Section Rear Mezzanine R
Aisle seat, and due to angle, you have basically unlimited leg room. High up but doesn't feel it. Unobstructed and you don't miss any action.
Felt a little far back but could see everything happening
LEG ROOM! and a great view!
Nice overall view of the stage, not too far back. No seat to your right but that's where the entrance/exit to the lobby is, so people walk by a lot.
Good view and good amount of leg room. Small theater so feels closer than picture shows
