You impressed me much! The staff at the ticket counter smiled at me and greeted politely. I love the fact that they have heated seats and recliners. Additionally, the picture quality was the best and I love the beautiful sound of the movies being featured. What a remarkable experience! Thank you so much!

This was the first time I visited this cinema house, and I am very glad that I did. I was able to enjoy my day! They strive to provide us the best service that exceeds our expectations. I am truly impressed by how they handled their many customers correctly with no hassles at all. Thank you for everything guys!

I couldnt ask for more! This movie house was excellent! They deserve great ratings. I found this incredible place by accident. I am very happy that I found this place last Monday because I was able to enjoy my holiday. I am heartily impressed by how they handled everything I need professionally. Thank you very much!

Love this small local theatre showcasing lesser known indie films and documentaries. Hip modern interior (thanks to the recent renovation) complemented by bold branding and graphics. Ill be sure to come back and explore other festures...

My new go-to movie house - I love it here! Im so happy this location opened up. Its very clean, has comfy chairs and the service is fast. The food is good, and the menu has it all. Its also still a nice peaceful movie house. We will come back next time and recommend the place to my co-workers and relatives.

Astonishing movie place! I will visit this place again for sure. I am very happy that I found this movie house when I wanted to watch movies. Their people were very friendly, accommodating, and welcoming. I am comfortable and relax at this place. I would definitely recommend and refer your services to everyone without any hesitation.

This movie house is very organized and updated. I always enjoy going there to watch movies. They have very comfortable seating and everyone is very helpful and very courteous when you go to the concession stand. Overall, a good and remarkable experience. I highly recommend this place to everyone I know.

Kudos to them for supporting independent films that mainstream theater chains would otherwise not show. There is an audience for these types of films and Im glad that theyre recognizing that.The theater is small and intimate, and seats around 70. Which can be a problem if you have company and do not arrive early enough. Our party of two arrived 15 minutes before the show and were surprised to see that most seats had been taken. We couldnt sit together and had to settle for whatever was empty. Definitely a good idea to arrive earlier than usual.

This is honestly one of the best movie theaters in the whole city. Interesting films, small theaters, friendly staff, and a convenient bar just adjacent to the waiting area. The bathrooms are well maintained as well.

The theater was hosting an Elizabeth Taylor retrospective and it was great to be there. The views were good, sound was good, the screen was large. I saw Cleopatra there and it was a treat. Totally recommend going there. It has been newly renovated and looks great too.

Beautiful little theater. They play an excellent collection of films which makes the Quad a real cinephiles dream. Also, the little bar is great. 10/10 would go again.

The renovated Quad Cinema in NYC is an excellent space to enjoy movies from around the world. There is also a bar to pick a drink before or after the screening. Highly recommended.

Review №22

This was such an interesting filmgoing experience! I saw the Israeli-French film Synonymes with two friends here. It is teeny tiny and I find that comforting - sharing a screen with a smaller group of people, which makes for a very intimate communal watch.The one thing that was surprising to me was that I just got a confirmation number when I bought my ticket online, and didnt get an actual ticket. I got my ticket at the theater when I arrived for the film instead by giving them my confirmation number.The coolest part about this theater, however, is that there is a cozy little bar! I went and got drinks with my friends after we watched the film and it was perfect for discussing the film in a genial environment right after. I had such a special time here.

Love the film selection! Its very clean & the staff is engaging with film goers. There are big, comfy seats. The only drawback is the screen size, its smaller than I would like. I see movies here a few times a month.

One of the greatest things about New York City as it has many Art Cinemas. this is one of them. Great movies. you should support The Quad- go see movies here.

Review №35

Comfy chairs for an older theater. Love its history and love that it shows indie and foreign films. That said, there was a mechanical sound prior to and during the film coming from the front right of theater A. It was annoying if it had not been for that, I’d probably have given this 5 stars.

Very intimate theaters, smaller screens than normal cinemas but it kind of felt like I was at home. Really well done independent films/docs from all over the world. Will definitely be back soon.

As a senior citizen on a very limited budget, I dont get to go to the paid features too often. So Im very choosey about which movies I go to see. The Quad has some of the best avande guade presentations in the five boros & just about anywhere!!!

Review №42

The big woman at the entrance is very rude and doesnt know how to handle a customer complain without losing her temper. Other than that the cinema itself is overrated; the seatings are really uncomfortable and the sound quality is average.

Review №43

I agree with all the positive reviews about the new QUAD! I have always loved the QUAD! The reason I give only 3 stars is that I used to be able to see 2, sometimes 3, films a day-- I love film. At the new QUAD, this is impossible. The scheduling precludes me from seeing to 2---forget 3---films a day! The QUAD has taken away my film going life. I now have to look at IFC schedule to continue my film-going life!

My experience has been great. I only been there once but I liked the decor of the place and the comfortable seats. They are playing indie movies that no one else is playing. I went to see a Japanese film that was only playing in one other theater anywhere near new york city. The staff were nice and everything looked clean. I would definitely go again when I have the time. And they take Movie Pass.

Its a small movie theater, but its got brand new seats and screens. This is definitely an art house theater, they show films that movie theater chains wont. Servers are nice and attentive. Getting tickets are easy. I recommend this to anyone who loves film.

Last Friday I forgot my wallet at the Quad.I returned to Quad within 30 mins and asked a staff member if they found a wallet in the theater I was in. The staff member was haunched over the counter, with no other customers waiting, scrolling through his phone. He said their staff didnt find anything but I could wait for the current screening to end so I can go in and look.I didnt want to wait an hour so I wrote down where I sat and my contact info for them. The staff member said they will call me in 1 hour when the screening ends if they find my wallet.1 hour later I check my phone and no calls. I thought for sure I had lost my wallet. Until midnight of that day when I get texts that they had found it. Which leads me to wonder:1). My wallet is a bright blue color. Why didnt they see my wallet the first time they cleaned up?2). When someone is panicked over the loss of a wallet, how can you be haunched over and scrolling through your phone the whole time?3). If you said you will call in an hour - how is it good management to wait till the end of day?

Great, ultra-modern theater! This place is pretty tucked away, I never would have known it was there if I didnt have the address. The movie I saw there was outstanding (The Insult). I cant wait to come back.

Review №53

Film Buffs you have found your home! The environment is top notch. Big display screens, new posters of upcoming titles, special appearances or event billboards are decorated through out the lobby. There is a bar and hang out area in the main lounge. Super chill in there, comfy waiting area clean bathrooms and most important GREAT films. If you went to film school or studied film in any magnitude you would appreciate the grass root films that are showed here. A slight draw back is the screen size but once you get into your seat you feel satisfied you came. This theater sticks out among the rest in New York City no matter your opinion good or bad.

All in environment cooperated well & pleasantly together..excepting being misinformed about how many showing remained on last day of a movie. Where Initially were two ended being one when got there to Quad! A bit of a bummer missing latter showing schedule for 4:30pm. Be careful w/ information disemmination. Say what you mean or know.Mdd.

After closing it down for nearly two-years,they gutted this 1972 movie-theater,and totally upgraded it. It is now a place,where one could see the very most current Esoteric films,as well as;the Great movie came-backs,ofyesteryears Thus,Quad Cinema makes it possible to see the finest films,in 21st.Century comfort. As of now,it deserves nothing less than five-stars.(5) Keep up the good work.

My wife and I went here to see a couple of obscure films we couldnt find in other theaters. That being said, I am happy with the movie selections made available here. However, both restrooms were out of order on the day of our attendance and I consider that problematic for a movie theater.

Independent movies have more life in them than all the blockbusters nowadays (do not get me wrong - I watch blockbusters as well). When I feel like watching such movie, I usually end up here. It is a lovely place and is close to one of may favourite restaurants.

I love the films shown here; the staff is really nice, as well. The only improvement Id recommend would be in organisation: they had three v popular films playing tonight, and there was quite a bit of confusion over who was to wait where.
