Level up your movie experience . Themed food, pre show before the movie , great draft beers , and classic movies . One of the best cinemas in North Texas.

Christy Acero

I love the chocolate chip cookie shake. We always order the chips & queso . The queso is the best.

Robyn Harman

Our go-to spot for (good) dinner and a movie all in one spot. Small kids aren't allowed at most showings. Make sure to turn off the ringer on your phone...or...you'll see.

The pre show for StarWars was awesome. Made a great movie viewing experience without being bombarded with ads to buy things; Apart from vintage ads for Star Wars toys no longer in shops. :)

Dean Erickson

Great theater. Love the fact you'll get kicked out if you talk or text during any movie . Love the peace and quite and the beer .

The only place ever you will ever see me watch a movie . Craft beer , awesome food. Vegetarian , vegan and gluten free friendly . Independent movies and main stream box office busters. Special events !

Carol Klee

When trying to decide which salad to get, just go ahead and order the Fried Goat Cheese Salad . It is the best!

Gerardo Canavati

Once you go Alamo you will never go back to ordinary theaters. All adult movie going experience without texting or talking and great food, what else could you ask for.

Kelly Klein

Awesome atmosphere. Loved the all the cool stuff before the movie . Better than watching stupid commercials like at other theaters. The food was so-so. Expected a little more from my $13 hamburger .

Rachel Robinson

Might be my new favorite entertainment venue here. Great menu, grownup drinks, and LOVE their hard and fast rule about tossing out talkers and texters .

Andrew Hall

The Carnivore pizza is one of the best pizzas in DFW. If you like meat covered pizzas , you should definitely try it.

Scott Caldwell

Grab a cocktail in the Glass Half Full Taproom before basking in the cinematic greatness. BONUS: Zero-tolerance policy on talking or texting during the movie !

Adam Terry

Wide selection of beer , free viewings on certain nights, kid-friendly shows, food service system is easier and less interruptive than Studio Movie Grill.

Cody Reynolds

Seriously the best theater around, and the quietest . They're not kidding about silencing your phone. Also the drink specials are great

The only place to see a movie . Special showings, theme nights, games, kids days

The Best. Staff is friendly , operations efficient and well thought out. Pepperoni Pizza and a chocolate shake is my staple.

Baked pretzels are great! Popcorn is excellent! I also recommend the Carnivore pizza and the chocolate chip cookies .

Chic

We had a family thrown out because the kid was translating a movie to Spanish for his dad. Heartless? Cruel? Yes. BUT SHUT UP DURING MOVIES.

Cory Bennett

One of the most slept on movie theaters in the Dallas area. Nice, clean , place with great leg room.

Chicy Babe

Beer is good. Popcorn is good. Cocktails are good. Seats are good. Noisy neighbors suck. Report them.

Great film experience. All in it can be a little pricey , but it's hard to beat the experience.

Great food, drinks, and films . I love the no tolerance policy for talking and texting.

Shawn Crawford

Great selection of craft beer and selected seating. Great veggie burgers !

Get there at least a half hour early to get your seat and look over the menu. The pre-movie stuff on the screen is never boring.

When it comes to the presentation of a movie , these guys take it seriously, and I appreciate the effort!

DKabanek .

Went there last night (Tuesday) for 7:30pm show. Cost $48 for 2 burgers w/fries and a pitcher of Dos XX. Average food it was burgers so not expecting much $20 was the cost of the pitcher of draft beer

Mark Brady

Get there early; they have the long tables instead of the smaller desk like setup. I usually stick with a burger , pizza , apps or shakes; rest of the menu is meh.

Litany Brown

I only come here to watch movies . Cookies , bottomless popcorn and beer ... Enough said!
