βThis was a pretty nice theater. The concession stand was reasonably priced. We got the small popcorn, chicken tenders and pretzel. Everything was very tasty. At first I had a hard time finding our seat until I realized the aisles were marked with lit letters near the floor. What I really liked were the chairs. In the seats we were in you could move the armrest out of the way and sit more comfortably for those who might want to cuddle. The parking validation is scanned at a clearly marked kiosk.β

βThis theater is absolutely beautiful and traditional with a vintage vibe. They have a full bar and a big menu for food. The location is lovely. However, if its a holiday or an event, going on parking can be pretty tough they do offer valet.β

βTuesdays 50% off all movies all day is the way to go plus 2 hour validation! Its also usually pretty empty so perfect to see a movie without distraction.β
