That place is probably the coolest theater Ive ever been to. Its not set up like a typical movie theater. They have these pretty comfortable office chairs you sit in. You can either sit at a round table or sit in a row that has one long table. Since they are all office chairs, you dont have to share an armrest. You can just lean back have a few drinks and watch the movie. They have servers that will bring you food and drinks. A bar for while your waiting for the movie to start. The price for tickets is on par with any other theater. About 9.50 if memory serves me correctly. If you go to a midday movie on a sunday I think its a bit cheaper. All in all its a fun clean place to go see a movie. I give it 2 thumbs up.

I have been a few times, and it is nice. The food is not great, but edible. And they also send you free tickets during the month of your birthday. Also if there is a big premier you can donate blood to lifesource and get free tickets, usually for an early screening.

I have been a few times as well. Just like Mzoomora said, the food is edible. Dont go there and expect wild fire steaks. All in all I think its the best way to watch a movie if you are going to a theater to see one.

man you guys make the food sound crappy. The food is pretty good. Not five star dining, but a nice fat burger or decent pizza.
