The ambiance, service, food, and staff were excellent and adorable. Overall, I greatly loved this particular movie house, for they provide a very good day to spend time together with your family, friends, and loved ones. On my part, I truly treasure every single day that I was with your place. It was truly enjoyable and worth it. I would look forward to my next visit!

I came here for the Searching premiere and it was such an awesome experience. We got to see the celebrities come to the premier on the red carpet. Free popcorn & soda were offered for all the attendants. The theater itself is super clean and the restrooms are on the high end for public restrooms. The only downside was $3 parking after validation for the first 4 hours.

In addition to that, one can leave it to Peephole Cinema to bring out watching a classic film sing-a-long, above the norm! Some people were dressed themed to the film, such as Mary Poppins, and there was a contest on best dressed prior to the film. Upon entering, one gets sound poppers and other fun package to chirp along to the film! It was quite an experience and memorable!

Stopped by after reading about this on Atlas Obscura. Worth a walk-by for the novelty.

Awesome experience! Small, cute, and clean theater with great, comfy seats playing both American and Korean films (all with Korean subtitles!). Super adorable cafe adjacent to the theater. Free parking available. Tickets run about $12, and seats are reserved. Bonus: not crowded and unlimited popcorn refills if you purchase a large. :)

One of THE BEST theaters that Ive ever been to! If they would add more variety to the menu ( like healthy breakfast foods) for the morning movies! Oh yes and if they could show the 4DX movies longer than one week, that could be PERFECT! Luv this place! :-)

Visited this late at night when I heard about it from a visiting artist from Mexico. Funny how someone visiting told us about something new in our own neighborhood of ten years! Really fun experience being in the alley and finding this mini silent cinema. I’m not really sure who the haters are that reviewed this poorly. Art like this is generous.

Came here for a Yelp event to see Kingsman: Golden Circle and I was subtly intrigued for the ScreenX experience. With this experience the movie is projected on not only the screen in front of you but also on the two walls to the left and right of the screen which adds a interesting experience. At times it was a little disorienting but it definitely offers a unique movie going experience. Im not sure how much ticket prices were for something like this would be but if it were comparable to something like a 3-D movie I wouldnt see myself paying for it consistently but again, interesting experience.

(Warning: young adults from Central Florida in for vacation) Atlas Obscura led us here. It’s as simple as that. YOU ENTER AN ALLEY, look for the ‘Peephole Cinema’ sign as well as another small sign listing the current videos, and you know you’re in the right area. Now look through the peephole to view the STRANGE, SILENT VIDEO IS ON THE OTHER SIDE. The videos are short and seemed very much like something that would play on repeat at a college art showcase. We were the only ones there, but a homeless-looking guy did pass us, gave short attention to the little Lady of Guadalupe shrine behind us in the same alley, and walked on. The entire area had a SLIGHT URINE SMELL to it.
