    Theater seating starts 30 minutes before the show. Arrive early enough to put your drink/food order in before the film starts.

    Comfortable seats. Sometimes it's a bit distracting having the staff walk back and forth between seats.

    Mixed feelings: nicely decorated, very convenient location and great films. But: Waited 30 minutes for our drink order; then it arrived in dirty wine glasses and the food was so-so.
