Nederlander Theatre Seating Question

Is front row MEZZ of the Nederlander a bad idea because of the railing? I've seen differing opinions/pictures online and want to ask the real experts on this forum haha.

If not, any recommendations for where NOT to sit in the ORCH?

Front Row Mezz at Nederlander are absolutely perfect seats. I saw War Paint seated there and can't imagine a better spot in that theater.

Edit: I wanted to add that our group had folks of various heights and the railing/bar was not a problem for anyone.

To be fair, it's been over 20 years since I sat front row mezz there for Rent, but I recall the seats being absolutely perfect with no issues from the railing whatsoever, so I've always been a bit confused at all the hate it gets.

I sat in the first few rows of the Mezz for Pretty Woman, off to the right. My memory is that the seats were extremely cramped, and that I was smashed up against the guy sitting next to me.

That being said, I can't remember anything about the railing!
