This place has Recliner seats and serves wine, which is great. Cleanliness is okay. They do military discount which is appreciated! 4 stars though because I highly recommend you bring a blanket or several layers, its almost as cold as the tundras outside.

Great customer service and comfortable recliner seating!

I tried calling the theater several times, but no one answered which is why Im leaving a review. I went to see Tenant last night at 8 pm. The theater is clean, and staff are following great Covid19 regulations. However, Im frustrated with people not adhering to their reserved seats. My brother and I reserved D7 and D6. We came in and saw a couple in our seats. They looked guilty and told us their recliners didnt work. It bothered us, but we didnt want those seats since we are trying to limit our interactions with people. We took the row behind them. A family of 4 then said we took their seats. We had to ask the couple to give up our seats as we didnt want this to happen again. This could have potentially increased our exposure to COVID19 from the selfish couple. I tried calling the theater to provide them with the recommendation of reminding people to sit in their reserved seats to not cause this butterfly effect of potential contamination and interaction with others.

Great Theater... Very comfortable seating.. The popcorn and drinks overpriced..

This theatre is great. Convenient to D.C., parking is easy in the free garage a block away, seats are comfortable, aisles are wide. I wish show times were released further in advance. There needs to be more sound deadening between theatres. Nothing like watching Little Women, with Bad Boys or 1917 explosions being heard.

Awesome experience! I went tonight to see sonic and got one of the greatest experiences of a movie night I could possibly asked for the staff was extremely nice! I also used my birthday promo and they made it feel extra special with just how polite & awesome they were! Greatly appreciate!!! Thank you sterling night crew & management!!PS. Movie was Awesome !!

Perfect ambience for a movie..covid friendly also

This is a great place for a date night. You can enjoy all of the many restaurants nearby and then see a movie. This theater offers the comfortable reclining seats but it is a smaller theater so each of the halls are pretty small, which can be a nice thing. It was recently renovated so its quite new. parking can be a bit difficult as this is a popular place, although there are garages nearby they are often full. And the county of Arlington makes sure that you pay for street parking practically all the time.

I’ve been to this movie theater a few times and love the friendly service, quaint atmosphere, convenient location, and free parking. Unfortunately a few weeks ago I saw a little furry guy running under the seats. I originally blew it off thinking it must just be the corner theater which is close to the emergency exit that leads outside. However, I went again this past weekend and once again noticed more mice. It’s such a bummer because I really like everything else about this theater. But it’s hard to truly relax and enjoy a movie sitting in the dark when I know that there are mice running around beneath me. I really wish they would solve this problem. But until then I’m not sure I’ll be back...

Kids and I love it here. One of the smallest theaters weve been to, but so quaint! We enjoy it there and how personable it is. Staff is nice, place is managed well, but they could upkeep the cleanliness of the drink stations a little better.

Comfy seats that you can book ahead of time. Its a bit chilly so bring a light sweater or a scarf. Its in a perfect location across from several diverse bars. Excellent place to take a date.

Once they mistreated me the helped me to be a happy customer again. They gave me so many free tickets with big popcorns and extra’s that I respected the way the helped customers who not satisfied.

A great Theater in a super location. All the benefits you could ask for: recliners, great snacks, beer & wine and even ice cream. Military/Senior Rates and Service Dogs welcome.

Got to the theatre in time and went up to buy a ticket for little women and was told they were sold out. Asked about 2 other movies and the staff told me they were sold out as well without checking. Went back to car and saw that seats were available on the amc website. Very poor service!!! Won’t bother taking the trouble next time. Plenty of other theatres that care more about customer’s business.

^_^ BuleStory review for AMC Shirlington 7 The service is good, the food was pretty good, the price was AWESOME if you are sign up as a member of AMC A List (this is definitely worth to try if you are movie lovers) but if you are not a member then, for the tickets usually about $30 for two people. But if you go here on tuesday you might get the $5 movie ticket offer

Its a great theater! Clean, chic, good recliners. You can here sounds carry over. Thats every theater right?

AMC Shirlington is the best movie theater I ever been on the seat recline to relaxing angle , also its located in Shirlington village you have lots of restaurants to choose from . Check it out guys.

Very comfortable reclining seats, good food options including healthier snack options. Pretzel bites were tasty and I didnt feel particularly ripped off for the price, which is really all you can ask for in any movie theater.

I was thoroughly enjoying the newly released Starwars until I saw a furry friend running past my feet and underneath a few chairs. Later in route to the bathroom, I saw another one scurrying towards the door. Made it a bit uncomfortable to sit there and enjoy the rest of the movie. The manager was nice enough to give me a refund, but the real issue is the mice. It probably doesnt help that this theater is surrounded by a number of restaurants and people who buy popcorn cant keep it off the floor.

One of my favorite places to see movies in the area. They used to do more indie films though

The screens are pretty small and dont extend from wall to wall. Bathrooms get pretty dirty. What makes the theater worth going to is the fact that all screens have recliner seats and plenty of room between rows, and that the theater plays a lot of independent movies. Sometimes though it is only playing wide release movies and in those times I wouldnt bother going because the screens are too small.

This theater isnt bad. They offer alcoholic beverages. The movie was really good, went to see Knives Out, definitely a good movie!

Great theater! Even with few screens, you dont feel like youre in a small theater location. Wide variety of food and drink options.

The reclining chairs are so comfortable and makes it feel like I am at home.Staff is always friendly and theater is clean.

The staff is very helpful and courteous. The theaters are clean and the lounge chairs very comfortable. The bathrooms are proper as well. The only issue was they played the wrong movie. However as soon as the staff was informed they corrected the situation by playing the intended movie. The soda machines are by the entrance and in the middle of the hall used to access the theaters. I found the placing and configuration of these machines rather uncomfortable for the customer.

Great seats love the ability to reserve a block of seats. food is just ok not great. i would improve food offers if I was management.

This is a very strange place. dirty. Movie didn’t start until 30 mins after showtime. Lights didn’t go off until 20 mins after showtime. Movie was pretty good though.

Great moving watching experience! Make sure that you reserve well enough in advance so that you can get a good seat.I still havent quite gotten used to the idea of laying down in a chair next to strangers in the movie theater, but if thats your jam, then youll love this place.The staff is also super helpful and friendly. We had bought tickets ahead of time and my friend was late, so I wrote his name on the back of the ticket and left it with the staff at the front. They were extremely courteous and accommodating.

Very comfortable, fully - reclining seats. Attendants friendly and efficient. Thanks!

Bathrooms arent that great, the service at the snacks counter was great. For the tickets not so great. The seats are comfortable and kept clean.

The theatre is smallish, the individual screening rooms are small and intimate. We watched a movie in theatre 2 which is one of the smaller rooms, it has 6 rows. The seats are assigned when you purchase your ticket and are very comfortable. They recline back as well as they have leg rests that can be lifted. A tall person would be comfortable with the seat fully reclined. Staff is friendly, bathrooms are clean. Just an FYI for individuals with peanut allergies, they do have an option for peanut topping on popcorn as well as sell peanut products so walk with wipes to clean your seat.

Nice seating and sound. 1st time Ive been to this location. Definitely will return.

The theater was about 50 degrees. I guess I could have complained while I was there but i was with my family including two young kids.I live about 20 min away.The staff did not care when I said how cold it was.I called when I got home and spoke with Nicole the manager. She offered free movie tickets. But she cannot mail or email them. No refunds. And they can only do the movie passes same-day so now it’s rush hour.So now I have t drive back 20 min (or more)each way.If they had offered the tickets when I initially complained that would have solved everything.Awful customer service.

My husband and I are AMC A-List members so we visit an AMC each time we take a trip. This was the best AMC theater we have been to. Our phone app wasnt working properly. No worries. We were able to use pull up our account on screens right at the register. Friendly helpful staff. We definitely need an AMC with reserved seating and recliners in Mobile, AL. Highly recommend this place.

Pretty nice neighborhood theatre with reclining seats. Screen quality is good. Lots of nice restaurants nearby for a dinner and movie date. Sometimes new movies get booked early so be sure to check in advance online for seats.

Its small but has everything. located in a block that has lots of restaurants and conveniently near Harris teeter

I have been going to Shirlington AMC for years, well before the renovation. The chairs are pretty awesome. Even the second row is manageable in the theatre. :-) wine was a nice touch although dazzlingly overpriced.

Best theater in the area with big, comfortable, reclining seats. All seats reserved and adult beverages to boot. The only negative is that parking can sometimes be a challenge.

Although they have fewer shows because of their size, their reclining seats are quite nice. There are no bad seats in the theaters! The line for the concessions is often slow because they only have 1 or 2 people total working the registers and food prep. If you are an AMC Stubs Premiere Member, take advantage of the membership line and Discount Tuesday tickets at this theater. Reclining seat tickets for $6 on Tuesdays are an awesome deal!

I went to go get snacks before movie starts tonight and my girlfriend runs out and says we have to leave I say why. She says there is a rat crawling across the seats. So we go to the front and say something to the young lady, and she was very kind, gave our money back and 2 vouchers to see any movie at any AMC. Will not be this amc though. They are truly understaffed. Only 3 employees through the whole movie theater. Please for the sake of costumers take care of the rat problem. I wish I got my money back for the food I just purchased as she was running out to tell me we had to leave.

The staff on Sunday afternoon were unfriendly. Three employees just standing behind the self-service ticket counter were running their mouths. One of the self-service machines was out of paper. The woman at the concession stand did not say one word and scratched at her scalp a lot. She also handed out the drink cups with her dirty fingers inside the rim.

Loved it. Mentioned that I Forgot my Stubs card. Concession worker asked for my phone number and said he would add the tickets for three and all the goodies we bought to my account. Awesome!!!

This is a smaller theater so they dont have as many movies going but so have more indie showings. A big plus for me is the reclining seats. Although I found them slightly uncomfortable.Bathrooms have these cute stickers everywhere too.If you get there too early, you may not have anywhere to sit and wait so be congnizant of that. Overall though, this is am AMC location I like to go to

This used to be one of my go to theaters until the 415pm show for queen and slim and saw a mouse running around.

Good theater to watch KNIVES OUT-- A very unusual who doneit!

Great seat and ambiance but very expensive refreshment.

Very comfortable seats that recline. Great deals for Tues showtimes ($5) if you join their AMC members club at no charge. Only complaint is the volume. Really loud. I will bring earplugs my next visit. Great location for a movie/dinner date night. Free parking everywhere after 5 pm.

I go to this theater every so often, not because its my preference but because of geographical convenience. The parking is never really good as the lot always seems full forcing me to park much further away, but that really isnt the fault of the movie theater. The inside is nice enough, a bit on the smaller side, and the food is consistently mediocre. Last time I was there it took me 15 minutes to get an order of chicken tenders. The staff wouldnt call out orders by ticket number, but rather shouting out the food item itself, this makes it hard to tell whose order is up. The Popcorn also tastes stale, which is just the result of someone not caring enough to making a fresh batch when needed. My biggest gripe is the staff seems to be complacent and doesnt really put much effort into the job. It shows and it takes away from the experience.

I have 3 words to say: MOTORIZED ADJUSTABLE RECLINERS! I saw Avengers Endgame in 3D here. We had assigned seats so no jockeying for them. They were comfy for the entire 3 hours. Good sound system. Not painfully loud like some establishments, but enough to let you experience some measure of the impacts shown on screen. So immersive that it was jarring when we had a momentary neighborhood power failure. I will revisit this place time and time again. MOTORIZED ADJUSTABLE RECLINERS!!!

Really fun. Great seating but the coke machine was broken!

Reclining seats, clean environment, happy staff

Since the remodel, this place is the go to place to see a show. The chairs are great, the improved food is a bonus and the bathroom is no longer upstairs!!!!

Been going to this theater for 3+ years.Its my favorite one in the area as it is in a dog-friendly area with plenty of restaurants and stores.Recliners are great. Reserved seating is great.The movie theater actually thought out how to level the seats so peoples giant heads do not block half the screen.The sound doesnt make me more deaf than I already am.Its a small location.Only issue Ive ever had here is an employee burnt popcorn and the fire alarm went off...conveniently when the lantern tips over and catches fire in the movie I was seeing, A Quiet Place. Had to get refunded in the form of a voucher and come back.I think Ive seen a mouse here once, but it was like two years ago. Squeakers like movies too.Park in the Randolph Square Parking Garage when you come here. Its free. Sh#t...the secret is out.Best AMC for A-List members locally.

Comfortable chairs you can lie on, eating your giant sized popcorn and watching a movie. Always a pleasant experience going to AMC Shirlington. Plus when u step out after the movie there are several nice restaurants and a Harris Teeter for some grocery shopping before going home.

One of the reasons I love Arlington. Great facility, in a perfect, walkable location.

Love this place! Great location, you can park at either of the public parkings, never had an issue. I usually get my ticket online so I dont wait in line. Customer service is on point!

Great place. They often carry an indie release or two. The seats are electric recliners and they serve alcoholic beverages at this location. Shirlington has several free parking lots and theres a bikeshare dock near the theater.

No complaints. Soda machines didnt have CO2 but at least they warned us

My experience to this theatre was awesome!! The staff were professional, courteous and smiling. The theatre was clean, spacious and the sound system was crystal clear. I felt like I was actual in the movie and it was a 2D movie. One of the best kept gems in Shirlington. I will be returning.JD

Small and quaint theater. If you want a nice big theater go to Tysons or Hoffman.

Great little movie theater. Dont sit any closer to the screen than Row C.

We enjoyed the place. Friendly staff.

Love seeing movies here. Great popcorn, comfy reclining seating.

Ordered tickets online and presented tickets on phone. Theaters were small with large reclining chairs. Spirits available. Free parking lot across from AMC. Many restaurants in the area. Shirlington exit off 395 puts you right at AMC. Staff were friendly, talkative and great salesman for the A List program. Im premium Stubb, going A list. Its worth it.

Nice clean theaters with ample parking not too far away. Also a ton of dining locations within 1,000 feet of theater.

This theater has really comfortable reclined and reserved seating. The really great thing about how their theater is set up is that there is not a bad seat to watch the movie from. You can sit in the very front or back and be able to comfortably watch the movie. They also have a bar that serves beer and wine and the bar staff are always very quick and friendly.Where it lost a star:I would recommend not ordering food from here unless you are just getting popcorn or candy. I have tried to order food 2 different times and both times the fries alone took at least 20 minutes. I dont know if its their system that is at fault or lack of training for the staff, but it ruins the entire experience.

Love my neighborhood theatre! All big movies come here and the seats recline! Reserve early online for tickets as they tend to sell out fast.

0 starts.... This place has mice! DO NOT Take ANYONE HERE...…How can you serve food with a place that has mice? Corporate needs to refund me my money!

Easy entry and friendly staff. The theater was a little small for a 3D movie without stadium style slant seating but comfy seats never the less. AMC in general is great. Good deals too #alist

Small theater that shows critically acclaimed films. Comfy recliner seating. Love this place!

Great theater. Has reclining love seats, a bar, and easy refill station

One of the smallest AMC theaters around. Not a bad place to watch a movie if you dont like to be amongst large crowds

I honestly love this theatre. Its small but thats because the seats are all recliner. Small theaters arent a bad thing, they allow for you to see movies without too many people. I would suggest ordering tickets online for their shows asap though because they do fill up quickly.

Once again Shirlington was a great place to visit the atmosphere was always good in the food was great I brought my family from down south out of town to enjoy the all Antonio experience they enjoyed every minute of it since the remodeling of the Shirlington AMC Theater it has been nothing but great great great I enjoyed the movies that they care and I encourage you guys to keep up the great work thank you once again for a fun and enjoyable evening

I used to go to Shirlington AMC quite a lot, but I don’t go anymore. Last year (September) when I was there at a movie, I was sitting in the last row. Ten minutes into the movie, 2 mice ran across my feet! I jumped up and ran out. When I told the manager he apologized and said they would call pest control. Only after I asked, did he refund my money. I have never returned to the theater. But they must still have a problem there because a couple of weeks ago, when I drove by, there was a Pest Control van out front of the theater.

Im an AMC Stubs member and AMC is a good chain, but Shillington has gone downhill. The sound insulation between theaters is bad and you can hear the action movies from the bathrooms, hallways and in whatever movie youre trying to watch. Ive told the staff, but the staff at this particular AMC just doesnt care. For arthouse movies, go to Fair City, Landmark or Angelika. AMC doesnt care about giving independent films a decent venue currently.

We love this theater! The theaters are pretty small, so it never feels too crowded. The seats are super comfortable & its just an all-around great movie-going experience. I do recommend getting your tickets online ahead of time to get seats you want. The small theaters mean that its tough to get several seats together if you buy the tickets at the theater right before show time.

Good experience.. I wish this theater showed some bollywood movies too. The recliner seats gives a comfortable seating.

Great AMC! Accidentally bought tickets to a showing the day before and they were kind and helpful and got us into a showing for the right day. Fresh popcorn, friendly staff, smaller theater sizes, will definitely come back

The movie theater is nice but small

Recliner seating is nice and I enjoy having the reserved seating. This locations shows more artsy, historical movies than the large blockbusters but is still a well run theater. There is a bar inside that serves beer and wine that can be taken into the theater

Nice little theater. Unfortunately, worst popcorn Ive ever had at an AMC. Kind of stale, definitely lacking flavor. Did they use any butter salt when popping?

Most comfortable chairs in amc

Great neighborhood, but the theater itself feels like it was just thrown into an empty warehouse. Hardly any room to buy tickets, get concessions and move about. I could hear the movie next door over my movie. Been to much more spacious, open, more comfortable theaters in the area. Might be back for a restaurant, but not for this theater.

Such a great alternative to the typical 5000 seat auditoriums!

Quaint clean small theatres with bar, food, soft drinks and snacks. Quality service given by employees. Enjoy your time at the Shirlington AMC movies!

The AMC Shirlington has $5 movies all day on Tuesdays and has comfortable recliners. You pick your seats, pay next to nothing and sit back and enjoy your movie! This is my favorite movie theater of all time, in this quaint, family-friendly area.

Very special place. Love AMC. Sue made it an even more pleasant experience, very cordial and attentive. Enjoyed my conversation with her.

A ticket provider at this theatre ask me and I quote.. If anyone has ever told me I look like Whoopi Goldberg...i love Whoopi, but we do not look alike. I mentioned it to the manager. I felt uncomfortable because her job is to sell movie tickets for AMC not to inform black people who they look like and yes she was white... ..will never return to that AMC...

There are mice running all over the theatre. The first two movies i saw there, i could see mice running under the seats during the movie. I told management and they said they would take care of it. I went back today and i saw another mice in my movie and when i walked out the theatre I saw another mouse running past the concession stand. This is a nice theatre but management has not done anything to get rid of the mice problem.

I am so tempted to give this theater one star because I don’t want it to get too popular, but that’s just wrong. I live about a mile from this theater, and it is super convenient. The prices are high, but that’s every single theater nowadays, so I can’t really knock them for that. It’s like gas stations. I can gripe about the prices, but it’s not typically the fault of that particular location. Anyway, good theater, friendly staff, and it’s not usually crowded.

Super comfortable seating, always clean, and staff is super nice.

My favorite local movie theater.

Great theater. You can choose your seat ahead of time. Reclining seats and beer and wine is available

Most comfortable chairs ever and best caramel popcorn ever.

Clean, small and quaint, nice staff, conveniently located

Great friendly staff. Popcorn is always hot and fresh.

Nice seats, decent popcorn, updated drink machines, clean bathrooms, nice enough staff.

Great seats, very comfortable recliners

Nice intimate theater. Great location for dining and a movie
