Lonely Planet review for Neue Galerie

This showcase for German and Austrian art, the Neue Galerie, is a small gem among the Fifth Ave biggies, as it’s an intimate but well-hung collection, featuring impressive works by Gustav Klimt, Paul Klee and Egon Schiele, housed in a former Rockefeller mansion with winding staircases and wrought-iron banisters. It also boasts a lovely, street-level eatery, Café Sabarsky, serving Viennese meals, drinks and to-die-for pastries on a corner that overlooks Central Park.

    If you have time

    alistnyc recommends this,

    While it shouldn't be your first museum stop in NYC, there's no reason to totally ignore it. Considering it's located right near The Met, you would probably be better off spending your time there than heading to the Neue gallery unless you are a fan of Klimt or Schiele. The Klimt paintings are great, but considering the price tag, you better be a big Klimt fan.
