    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.

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

    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. :)

    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!

    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.

    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.

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

    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.

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

    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!

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

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

    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.

    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.

    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

    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.
