My sister and I were very fond of movies. We went to this movie theater to watch our favorite film. The audio was audible, and the place was very appropriate. You can really have a comfortable seat and can focus on watching. I will surely be back at this place.

Saw a wonderful Q&A event for Luce!! It was well done and I really loved listening to their talks about the movie! A true must see!!!

Hands down my favorite modern movie theatre in LA. The rooms are always clean, and its great to be able to pick your seats. The projection and sound are always excellent, and I appreciate that there are good alternatives to the usual candy/popcorn at other concession stands. Theres also very often original art hanging on the walls.The points system for members is very well done - its easy to earn value toward free/discounted food and drinks.

Fantastic restrooms. May in fact be the nicest restroom ever. Lizzie was underwhelming, but you wont be docked for this subjective matter. Nevertheless, Im taken aback by your facilities- 4 stars.

Great location. You can spend a whole day here. Lots of shopping and restaurants! Nice cinema located on roof top. Plenty of lounge area. Comfy chairs that reclines.

The place is clean, cozy, and not crowded. The space for your food and drinks is big that you can fit a plate there which means you can definitely eat in comfort. No need to place food in your lap. The foods and other snacks are very affordable. The comfort rooms are well maintained too which I appreciated so much. Highly recommended!

All respect to this cinema house for making my movie experience more memorable! This cinema house is undoubtedly one of the best, and I urge you guys to come here because they truly have it all, especially some tasty snacks and comfortable seats. I really had a great time here, and Im sure that I will come back soon.

This place is showing that limited release film that the other theaters arent. Nice ambience and easy ticket buying experience. They also serve booze which always wins points from me. Go here for the oscar nominated short film screenings. One of my favorite theaters in the city.

Theaters are really nice. Clean and super comfortable with great screens and sound. The alcohol selection is good as well. The one negative for me is their food. It is really slow and not particularly appetizing. Grab food before or after somewhere else and enjoy the movie.

An extremely comfortable theater and you can order a hot meal with cocktails.

Great place to see a movie, excellent staff, comfortable seating, great location, lots of parking right beneath the building, and many great restaurants, bars, and shops very nearby.

Clean & comfortable seats. Def an upgrade fr other theatres. Staff is friendly & helpful. Try the popcorn. They have the small kernel variety. I had half trad & kettle corn. So yummy! Heres their food menu choices (from their website).

I enjoy this theater because they show movies that are not shown in other theaters.

They have indie movies you cant find in the other theaters. Their food is great! Surrounding Embarcadero center has nice views and places to relax.

Nice little independent film theater. My friends and I went to see Life of Brian and were pleasantly surprised. The theater offers online booking with seat reservations. Food options include the usual concessions plus a beer and wine bar. You can take alcohol into the theater. The seats were roomy and comfortable. We had to sit in the second row because we bought late, but it was totally fine.

Beyond comfy chairs. More of the arthouse movie set, good solid service.

Nice theater to see Independent films. Pleasant atmosphere. Good service.

Fantastic independent theater. Some theaters have recliner seats, there is a bar and lounge that is welcoming and good concessions

Excellent movies and real drinks at the snack bar.

Small theater and more indie films

I love this theater. Because the theaters are small, they always have tons of movies. The seats are amazing. They are huge chairs that have an electric switch to lay back and put your feet up just how you like it. Lots of room for cup holders and snacks. It’s just a great place to comfortably watch a movie.

Watched peanut butter falcon... such a great movie... now that makes the place memorable lol

Beautiful theater. Very comfortable leather seats. The lobby smells like movie magic.

This is quite a tricky cinema to find. Its on the too floor, signage isnt great. I saw a film in screen two where there are only two rows, both of which are very close to the screen leading to an uncomfortable viewing experience. The sound is also very low and the screen reflects a lot of light making it difficult to see the movie. Avoid.

Such a great theater. I’m impressed. Usually non-mainstream theaters don’t have enough investment to be pretty and have good equipment. This one has it all.It shows non-mainstream movies, which are hard to find elsewhere.The screen and the seats are amazing. The reclining sears are even better than at Metreon or Century: you can lay down almost completely. Easy to fall asleep if you don’t enjoy the movie :)The only minor complaint is that the front row is too close to the screen.The location is great. It’s right in the downtown, close to Transamerica and Embarcadero. Not many homeless people around, it’s pretty clean and feels safe.Probably my favorite theater in San Francisco so far.Last time when I was walking out at 9.30pm, I saw a raccoon ! They enjoy going to movies too apparently!

It was Okay !!!Its been a long time since, Ive visited the theater !!A little drama, but all is good !!!I decided, to enjoy the rest of my day !!!The Ship had to sail !!!And I, continued on my journey !!!

I like this theater a lot. Is never too busy and it has a more quiet atmosphere. Some of the rooms have new reclining chairs though in some cases if it is a small theater it is too close to the screen. The popcorn is good. They have both salt butter and kettle corn option. Bad things: do t get any actual food there it is just not good (chicken tenders, fries)

It was a bit of a chore for me to find the theater on Thanksgiving day with few facility employees around, but I dont know if its always that way. Its up a few floors on an elevator, but it seemed like thats not the way youre supposed to go. Theres also stairs and escalators, but the latter were not all functioning. Anyway, the theater seats are old school, so dont expect anything super comfy or stadium style, but they have a good movie selection and those halfway organic cookies all the Landmarks Ive ever been to seem to carry. Tasty!

A good place for independent movies. Usually 6-8 options per day. There is usually enough choice to make a choice.

Great place to watch a movie. They serve wine at the concession stand too!

I went to see the Joel Edgerton Q&A on Sunday. Like I predicted, sold out. It was my bad. Procrastination. Anyhow, I actually havent been to the theatres since the remodel. The lobby is cool. Lots of glass, if I recall correctly. In conclusion, Ive never been let down at any of the Landmark Theatres. Ill be back soon .

Great movies, comfy seats, funny fun experience

Small intimate theatres to watch great movies in large reclining chairs.

I finally feel like its time to do a proper review. I came here in 1997 as a film student and honestly this was my second classroom. It was a resource.Yesterday? I had to see the boots Riley film. Thats why I was here at this particular time. The parking in this area is great if you go late at night. There are plenty of places to walk around and get nice and stoned before you watch the movie. The bar there is great especially if youre into wine. Everything else about the cinema is just pretty good nothing special just a good Cinema.

This movie theatre has everything: the newest and best movies, comfortable seats, just the right size screening rooms, several self-serving ticket kiosks (so there is never any wait), food and drinks (including alcoholic beverages) and wonderful staff. After it was rebuilt completely a few years ago from a very good but quite plain movie theatre, I thought I’d never get used to all this luxury, but now I love it. Yes, the first row in the smaller rooms is too close to the screen, making the movie unwatchable, so watch for that. Other than that I recommend it whole heartedly.

Seems a bit outdated and from the 90s but still a solid theater with a responsive bar staff. Might be a good place for a date once in a while. The location is great for an after work movie but not a place to make your top spot if you want to see your favorite movie in the highest quality.

Theater was FREEZING! People who work at the box office are worthless, they cant even tell you whats playing the next day!

Great boutique art house cinema. Take a bottle of good wine from bar and go watch a movie.

Helpful & friendly staff! Clean theaters

Art house type movie theater. They do not have endless advertising. The ticket price is on par with other movie theaters. Renovated. Seats are comfortable.

Great place to watch an independent film

Warm at night chilly during the day (windbreaker suggest ed)

Reclining padded leather seats. You may order beer or wine at the bar, and bring that in with you.

Got Yellow Thai curry that I could not eat. Just filled with cheap potatoes.

This movie theater is very cozy and modern. They have smaller, intimate auditoriums that house less than 20 seats that fully recline and they also have larger screens that hold maybe less than 100 seats which are leather but do not recline. They serve alcohol and have a good selection of concession items. I was very pleased with the accomodations.

I use a power wheelchair. The elevator at the Embarcadero is really really small. But, my friend and I who have permobil power wheelchairs were able to use the elevator individually, but it was quite snug. The staff that works there are nice and helpful.

Great seats and reserved seating

I just saw high Life, a movie set an interstellar space. I sat in a recliner that squeaked and creaked everytime I breathe. and the screen was covered with small holes which is emitted tiny dots of blue light. Nothing like small blue dots covering a screen during a movie that depends on pictures of a black hole. This theater is getting worse and worse by the day.

A small cinema often showing independent or artistic films. Delicious popcorn and really comfy seats make it well worth a visit.

Hidden gem. Non-major releases. Many theaters with huge loungers, all with reserved seating. The best popcorn. And a full bar and lounge! Practically live here in the pre-award season run up.

Nice art-house multiplex. Just beware that some of the theaters are VERY small. Large, comfortable seats (in some theaters the seats recline). Friendly staff and a bar.

Great for independent and foreign films

Great place. Friendly staff.

They use real butter on their popcorn. I love the sound quality.

Love this place because you can reserve tickets ahead of time using ovie pass. Plays lots of good indie films. Comfy reclining chairs in some theaters.

The kindness and professionalism of the staff is very impressive

This place may have beentops at one time or San Franciscians may not like to go to the movie because the screen has a tear in the middle of it. The seats do recline and you can order some food dishes and theyll bring in to you, but no pull out tray like the newer fancy theatres Ive been to in Sacramento where theres a bigger and better menu, pull out trays and servers that take your order even during the movie! I though it would be bothersome but not. This place can use a facelift. Although, the staff was very friendly. This is why I have given this place 2 stars. The prices are average.

Good art-house selection and comfy seats; extensive but pricey concessions menu.

Great selection of art and indie films. Finding the cinema inside the confusing Landmark office complex is tough. Allow extra time your first visit.

Always a wonderful offering of non-mainstream movies. The upgraded bar and bar snacks, being able to take drinks into the theater, many of the smaller theaters have been upgraded, and respectful fellow moviegoers make this a wonderful movie experience.

The oddest aspect about this newly redecorated theatre is its reserved seating. I would like to sit where I want and not be relegated to sit where the prepaid ticket machine says theres availability. The chairs, however, are comfy if not gratuitously so. I go to see a movie and maybe munch popcorn not to drink wine or sit next to somebody who reeks of wine and is loud and tipsy or enters late.Theres no way to get student discount at the computer enhanced ticket machines. For $13.50 per ticket, Ill not be returning any time soon.

This is a nice, fancy theater! Its small, I think they have two screens. Located on third floor of the plaza with all the shops. They have cushy recliner-like chairs and you also get to reserve your seats. If you dont like to watch trailers, like me, then you can come in after they are over and still get your pick for seating.

Love these theatres. They only bring good movies. The facility is very comfortable. The small threats here have recliners. You should always buy tickets in advance always full. They have a wine bar and food items that you can take into the movie with you.

Very clean movie theater with a nice selection of movies that often dont play elsewhere. The seats were comfortable and looked pretty new. Staff were friendly and helpful.

My favorite movie house!!

Awesome low key theater.Plays mostly indie films and I have yet to go there with a full theater..which is a big bonus for me because that means theres less rudeass people ruining the movie (aka people who talk, text, chew, and slurp through movies)!!! :pAnother bonus is that (during the time of this review) this is the only theater in SF that allows for advance booking through Moviepass. All you have to do is show up within 30 minutes of your booking...no worrying about the lack of seating here.Grab a drink at the bar and some small bites from the concession, and enjoy the next couple hours!

Clean, comfortable. State of art video and audio. Very good amenities. Delicious coffee and popcorn. Delightful, cozy lounge.

Great small theater with comfy seats that recline with a foot rest.

Well run, & clean. Helpful, friendly staff. Only complaint is that there wasnt enough room for my seat to recline.

Very old school theater with modern lounge

Nice theaters with cozy sitting and spacious leg room. Popcorn is delicious.

The theatre plays a lot of indie movies! They also have leather seats, comfortable and clean. The sound quality and the display is really big and nice as well.The best part? MoviePass!! This is the only movie theatre accepts MoviePass with outside of reserve seat distance. I can buy a ticket from anywhere and just check in at the counter, which is perfect for me since I live near by SFO.The Parking around the area has different prices, some are $3 full day or $3 per hour (Weekends).

Been going for years, all the best Indie and foreign and eclectic films..Grace Jones doc last one Ive seen. So good

Nice theater. Higher quality movies, n o t the usual Hollywood drivel.

One of my favorite theatres... free parking. Comfy seats. Small and large auditoriums... good concessions.... great indie films. Love it.

Love this theater. Real restaurant food (or popcorn and soda), and beer and wine. Great films, although you probably wont see mainstream blockbusters. Validated parking = dinner and a movie in downtown SF without having to worry about, or pay for, parking.

I love the theater experience at the Embarcadero Center Cinema. I landed there one evening and found myself in seventh heaven when I sat in a fully reclinable bucket seat, with my feet up and abundant wiggle room. I have been addicted to this theater ever since in such a way that whenever I want to go to the movies, I check for what they are showing before actually deciding what movie to see. It also helps that they show mostly independent/artistic/original types of movies that I like, and that the A/V projection quality is excellent.

The place to go for indie films, foreign films, culture films above and beyond the regular fare. One of the best known experiences of this city. Natives are very fond of the place.

Um..weird maybe HUMONGOUS 12 seats?...ok...folks watching old game of thrones to catch up on politico nov. 2019 dynamic?..whatevah. ...better aelection than yuck century choices...

Convenient Landmark location just a few minutes from BART. Theyre located at the top of 1 Embarcadero, so if you have trouble finding it youll know youre then when youre at the roof! They have standard movie concessions plus specialty offerings and a bar on the opposite side of the entrance. Check out their website for special events and screenings as well. The only downside is that the theaters are a bit smaller and not as inclined. Other than that, great spot to catch indie movies in DTSF, especially if you have MoviePass!

Lovely seats, nice to choice the seats. Two suggestions for you, 1. have a no popcorn area in the theater. 2. the paper containers, holding the popcorn are very crisp and therefore noisy. What happened to cardboard? That is not a noisy.

Maybe the greatest theater for small release films Ive been to. A fantastic theater to see movies that are hard to find elsewhere.

The convenient parking with validation makes it really easy to come here! Also like the bar and lounge areas!

Things all look a bit old and worn around the Embarcadero Center and even the theater building until you get into the theater itself. The chairs are amazing and the indie and foreign films are more than worth the price!

Super comfortable (and ticketed!) seating thats definitely a step up from the Kabuki. I would rate it 5 stars if they could figure out how to staff their wine bar so that one doesnt miss the opening of the movie while waiting for the single server.

Overall a very pleasant experience and I will definitely be coming back. The automated ticket kiosks are easy to use and intuitive and the service was very friendly. I was in one of the smaller side theaters to see Son of Saul and while the seats were indeed amazingly comfortable seating is extremely limited. We sat in the second row back from the screen and it was too close for my taste, this is especially true for a film with subtitles.

When I want to watch a newly released foreign or indie film, this theater always comes through.A small place with big relaxing reclining couches to enjoy!!

TheY are always playing a film worth the price of admission. Good projectors. Good sound. Plush pads for the buttocks to chill for two hours while your brain fires electricity.

Great theatre. Wonderful films, comfortable seats and nice employees. Nice crowd of people frequent this theatre.Have coffee or a quick snack at illy cafe downstairs. The best!

Nice Cineplex with 5 medium-sized theatres that show mostly indie and foreign films. The wine bar adds a posh note to the lobby and the popcorn is cheaper than the big national chain movie houses.

The best theater in SF. The theater is clean and not filled with annoying teenagers. The movies shown here are more independent movies. There are 2 different types of screening rooms, one has full on recliner chairs and the other has regular movie seats. There is a full bar and of course popcorn for snacking.A great date night place!

Our favorite place to watch a movie. The reclining seats cant be beat. And the sound quality is excellent.

Incredibly comfortable movie experience. Large, comfy, electronic reclining seats paired with a fantastic, artisanal selection of food at the concession stand.Easy online ordering and ticket pick up at the theater made me wonder where this theater had been all my life.One of the best movie-going experiences you could ask for and reasonably priced, too!

Best theatre in the city with a great selection of films

Its in a really nice area, the seats are comfy, they stream really cool movies and its relatively cheap. Loved it.

The small cinemas have great comfy seating. The larger ones have cheap tight seating with plastic floors, gross when youre used to the comfort of the small ones.

Good theater Quiet out of the way

Great food, FABULOUS DOCUMENTARIES!

Love this theatre. Plays films that are hard to find elsewhere. Great seating. Decent food and wine.

Small theater but a nice area 3 levels above the street. Ive only been for movie screenings that they have. Good concessions and spirits options, but movie theater prices.
