Beautiful but Pricey
4 Star Rating: Recommended

I agree the Oriental is a beautiful venue but I didn't find drinks reasonable at all. My wife and I just saw Wicked last week (good show by the way) and I paid $3.00 for a 12 ounce bottle of water. That's $32 a gallon! The seats are narrow and leg room reminds me of a coach seat on a discount airline. The production, lighting and sound system are first class and the bathrooms are clean but scarce and crowded during intermission.

Pros: Entry was quick and efficient and there is ample staff to guide you to your seat.

Cons: Tight seating and poor legroom.
