There's so much to see here - including many famous pieces you'll not want to miss (Van Gogh Starry Night, Monet Water Lillies, Warhol's soup, Mondrian to name a few) and many more surprising pieces as well.

If you come to New York then you need to visit MoMa. Fantastic museum with some great art on display. You can also see Van Gogh The starry night painting! You can have lunch at the cafe that has a nice menu!

I have been a member for like forever and I love this place. As a member you get to enter earlier than non-members so definitely think about becoming one.

They always have a great selection of art

Most of it is too good for words. Listening to the artist and curator recordings over headphones made a tremendous difference, I only wish there was more of it. I wanted to hear about every piece.

My favorite museum in NYC. For young people can be pretty interesting since it s art is amazing and the museum itself is a piece of modern art. I can assure you, it s a very great experience. And don t forget to buy a little souvenir.

I love love this place! The architecture is gorgeous, they have ticket machines so you don't have to stand in line to buy some.

Their cafe is amazing, and their service is fantastic. They have free coat check. You can't use your SFMOMA membership to get in for free, so that was lame. But must visit if you're in NYC.

Pricy but world class and always something new to see. Evening the permanent collection is exciting. Locals also enjoy the movie series schedule of classics. They even have their own app, so download that before you go.

Awe-inspiring! It is so exciting and strange at the same time to witness the master works that you have always seen on the internet but have never got a chance to see in real life. It took us 4 hours to visit every floor of the museum. The diversity and strength of each exhibition really amazed me.

Very big. Even with a small interest in art this place is very nice. I'm generally not really interested in art but thanks to the free audio tour(you will need to turn in your ID/driver's license paired with your email) i could here the thoughts and reasons behind most artistic pieces. Quite a few different collections, so they will most likely have something in their arsenal you will enjoy!

The MoMA is a formidably excellent museum as it has a diverse selection of art exhibits that surely will entertain any artistically related interests, including hyper modern art, installation art, impressionists, a sculpture garden, and much more. The MoMA offers any visitor a truly interesting and enjoyable time, highly recommend.

Excellent exhibits but this museum is MASSIVE. Stay away from free Fridays, as they let too many people in. Definitely not for people who dislike crowds or touching and bumping into other people. Big draw is Starry Night. Worth paying just for less crowds alone but definitely treat yourself. Family friendly. Food available at cafes. Entrance is on the north side of the building. Must check all bags. Easy process.

Fantastic time but as expected really busy. Take your time because others aren't and can kind of make the place feel a little hectic. Start at the top and work your way down floor by floor, the famous classical art is on the 5th floor if you're looking to see the money makers.

The most famous artwork in the world - all under one roof. My favorites were the Starry Night, Water Lilies, and Jackson Pollock. Like the guides will tell you - start at the top and work your way down through the collection. Be sure to check the maps of each floor to make sure you don't miss any galleries. The New MoMA combines all art types together, so you'll see paintings, photographs and movies together in the same space.

The 2nd floor has a kid's area that my 10 year old loved. The day we were there activities were weaving, observational drawing and map making. If you have kids go here 1st and they have an activity booklet and scavenger hunt to fill out as you work your way through the museum.

Be sure to get an audio guide - they're free

Ate lunch at the restaurant and I really enjoyed the foie gras ravioli. The menu was really fun and it was actually tough to choose a dish. I was told they had old english on tap but they must have run out by the time I got there. I went with the Wakatake cocktail instead.

I was a bit ambivalent about visiting after just a so-so experience at the Met, but this place absolutely blew me away! So many great paintings and exhibits to look at and explore. And there were plenty of restrooms, not just one in the basement that takes like 20 minutes to get to in the Met!

Beautiful collection of Modern Art. On a rainy summer day, it was a bit too crowded to my liking but still worth the visit.
Quite a few pieces of Picasso and contemporaries. Superb!
Free audio tour available in quite a few languages. Don't forget to take one of these. It definitely adds to the experience.
Some of the paintings had audio items for kids as well. I haven't seen many kids around but I have checked one or two stories for kids. Great aid to introduce them to art.
You can easily spend a full day but there is an audio tour of about an hour to just take in the highlights as well.
Kids up till 16 years of age have free entrance.

This is where I wish I could give four & a half starts. My only problem with the MoMA was the first couple of floors focused on modern performance art, which has never really been my thing. However, past that was all the amazing paintings & sculptures that I thought were fantastic! If you are a Jackson Pollack fan, they have some great work of his to enjoy!

The MOMA was a nice visit. Had many paintings of famous artists and some lesser known ones as well. They also had sculptures, photographs, and viedo galleries. Obviously the most crowded parts were around the Vincent Van Gogh paintings and Pablo Picasso. Was pretty surreal to be so close to the Start Night and Water Lillies paintings. Outside they have a nice sitting area around a water pond. Has a huge 20 ft metal Rose scultpture which was pretty cool. Just a short walk to Central Park from the museum. Just a tip, no drinks allowed. Even my sealed water bottle had to be tossed in the trash can.

So many amazing exhibits to take in - you need to put aside hours to do the collection justice. Unfortunately didn't have that luxury but so priveleged to have seen so many thought-provoking and historic pieces. Would love to go back

One of New York City's premier museums in a city of great museums. Admittedly some of the artwork is bizarre, but some is stunning. Fun multi - floor layouts, traditional art (Van Gogh) as well as modern (Pollack) and Free Friday admission make the MoMA a big apple winner.

First time going since renovations, have been going since I was a kid. This is prob my 14th time and it always felt like it was too small, not anymore, ALOT TO SEE! Bring walking shoes. I usually start from the last floor (which is usually the headline exhibition) and make my way down. Lurk the store too, full of cute stuff. Free coatcheck as well.

See some of the world's famous paintings, contemporary art and design. A must do attraction. We arrived 30 minutes before opening and were pleased to avoid the biggest crowds. The shop has great range of prints.

Great Gallery showcasing a wide range of modern art. Including works by Van Gogh, Pablo Picasso and Claude Monet.

I visited on free Friday and was almost put off by the queue. However once tickets started being handed out at 4pm the line soon cleared. The gallery was much busier however while an issue for some this did not bother me. The terrace on 5 restaurant was a great place to grab some refreshing lemonade.

I get free tickets here, cannot complain. Van Gogh, Picasso, Miller and so many artists' pieces. Normally, I go straight to 5th floor and revisit famous pieces and look seasonal exhibitions. Typically spend 2-3 hours.

I didnt take pictures here because they have so many many things in the exhibit which you will have to experience yourself. such a big variety of things that can entertain you for hours in this 4 floor massive place. staff was great and never was rude. if you dont mind crowds, go there on free musuem time (Friday 4pm-8pm) but if not I think the admission $25 is worth it
