The museum did not seem to be opened. The website doesn’t give any useful information. I rang the door bell, but nobody answered and there was no phone number listed. It was nearly 11 am on Wednesday.

The museum was very small and most of the "artifacts" looked homemade. There are pictures on the wall of famous mobsters from Google images. The tour guide we had was very passionate but honestly rude and talked nearly the entire time shutting people down when they had questions because they didn't wait for the right time, yeah I don't get it. We left after an hour because we had dinner reservations so plan to be there over an hour at least. Basically you're paying $20 for a tour of an old house, not a museum, with a bias tour guide. Take your time and go to a real museum. We left angry we were robbed of our time and money, they're the real mobsters

I'm going to be honest I'm not sure if its still open I would contact someone before going. This was some pictures from before covid. The entrance is inside of a building and its a little confusing. It was such a unique experience with a lot of school historical stuff and memorabilia to do with the mob and prohibition and it even displays old toys and news papers. When I was here before covid I went in for free but if you want a tour you must pay and have it scheduled ahead of time. I really hope this opens up again in the future.

Visited the museum on Friday at about 5pm, so we were the last guided group. The museum is actually an apartment in a residential building, thus do not expect anything huge and fancy. Even though it is not that big, there are plenty of amusing items inside, but what makes the place really amazing is the guide! He was really knowledgeable and passionate about the topic and kept the attention of the group for the whole hour by telling stories and interesting facts. Totally worth $10 spent on Groupon.

The museum itself is free, the tour costs $20/adult and it's the only way the museum makes sense. The entire tour lasted about 45 minutes and was very informative, plus you get to go into the underground hideouts. All in all it was fun, but I don't see myself going a second time ever.

Very unique experience, though not like your typical museum. There's only two rooms, and honestly, walking in, I thought I was going to regret this choice... but make sure to go on the tour, and get the groupon for it. The tour made the whole experience genuinely awesome; if you like the city and are interested in its history, this is a fantastic bit. I honestly learned so much during the visit, and the information and stories were presented in an entertaining way, too.

Very informative and a bit funny at times too. The 2 guides we had were both lovely and not snooty at all about their superior intelect on the subject. They seemed genuinely excited to share their knowledge with you. Tip: Bring Cash or Buy Tickets Online. They do not take credit cards in the museum.

If you like history, then you would enjoy this. The tour was about an hour and 15 minutes, but contained a lot of facts; some known and some not. Part of the tour was spent in 2 rooms filled with apt of pictures and blurbs, the other part takes you into the actual speakeasy. Definitely worth the groupon price.

There was some lowbreed German who used to work there who was a total con artist… Tilgam? Tilman? He was so high on drugs when he gave me and my husband a tour he was foaming at the lips lol.

The exhibition space is dark, plain, homemade and lacks polish [pictures tacked on the wall and some interesting pieces in cases] - HOWEVER the young lady tour guide is AMAZING..she truly made the tour! Her storytelling was interesting, funny, grabbed and held your attention. It was worth the $20 entrance fee.

What an amazing experience! The tour guide was great. Her enthusiasm through the tour and interesting stories were super enjoyable! The actual building was interesting and so full of history. I’m so glad I took the time for this tour on my NYC trip!

Precovid tour was pretty good

If you find yourself in this part of Hollywood and you are looking for a quick activity this is a good one. They have a good student price and they also have a professional photographer who will help you get some great shots, edit and send them to you for free! I had Chace who was awesome and made sure I was happy with the shots. It made the experience really fun and there are some really interesting rooms. Open up you imagination and you'll enjoy it.

One of the coolest places! You learn about Gangsters, Speakeasies, NY history and so much more! And they have a great bar there and theater too! True NYC landmark! As a kid I used to cut school to hang out in the theater, don't tell my mom! LOL They have some fantastic items too and the staff is sweet and smart! Still one of my fav places, you won't be disappointed!

Great museum! A lot of original artifacts of American history. I had a amazing tour, i been ian a gangster basement, theatre and bar! That’s definitely really cool

I absolutely love the experience but I do need to say with my limited experience that perhaps the curator of the museum could organize it slightly more catered to new york. The Gambino family need be mentioned, a little bit more light should be in the rooms to see the photos. There should be museum artifacts that we can purchase. This museum has potential!

The Museum itself consists of two rooms covered in artifacts, photos, and models. Visits are free, but you absolutely have to pay the $20 for a tour. You'll get to see the adjacent bar (speakeasy) and the spaces underneath the building. It's well worth it.

Very cool experience and glad we found a Groupon for it! Unfortunately I felt like I didn't have a lot of time to look around and read for myself but the guides did and great job entertaining with stories. Even though it's a small exhibit and tour, I would absolutely go again and bring people!

A great little museum with a guide who clearly enjoys her subject! I would have liked to see more on subjects specific to NYC.

Fun little place great tour guide.

I enjoyed this experience, I would have enjoyed it more if I'd had a more thorough knowledge of the mob prior to going. My friend and I bought tickets from Groupon and arrived right when they opened for the day. We hadn't realized there would be a tour at that time so it definitely worked out for us. If you're planning to go be sure to get there for a tour though, otherwise there's so much information(lots of news clippings too) it feels daunting to sift through. I liked the tour guide, you could tell she really enjoyed her job and knew so much of the history. The downside was that I felt like there was so much she didn't share because she assumed everyone already knew, and maybe didn't want to bore people, but I wished she would have told us the full stories. It was still nice though because we also go to go to the bar next door which was a speakeasy run by Frank Hoffman and got to go down in to the basement as well!
