Favorite movie theater in the city! Quality of food is great for a movie theater, recliners are comfortable, and love the whole vibe of the theater. Clean and friendly staff.

I'm completely in Love with this theater. Brings that old nostalgia of a classic movie theater. I'm so happy you guys opened back up again and the upgrades are fabulous. The new reclining seats are such a plus. The dining service you receive while seating at your seat plus a full open bar such an adult atmosphere. I can't wait to come again.

Clean theater, fun theme and decor and good customer service. Fish and chips were tasty and the beer was nice and cold. My girlfriend and I really enjoyed our movie here. Would recommend.

Everything!!!!! Subterranean cinema grotto if 15 or so small cozy theaters with food service buried in near secret location; lobby and entire layout a feast for the senses even before you get into your particular theater; a sacred sanctum sanctorum for true cineastes because (drumroll on the numbskulls' foreheads who ruin movies for others): THESE THEM's THE RULES for us watchers (ironically I saw "The Watchers" - retitled "The Watched" in England & Ireland because they're them!) RULE THAT RULES!! NO ENTRY ONCE MOVIE STARTS (saw one nice but stunned patron whimper at the box office showing 15 minutes late: "but I paid for my ticket! My friend's in there!" SORRY PRINCESS! See, the swift, polite and uttered-many-times-to-others-response was a pleasant box office clerk's friendly HAMMER: "really sorry. It's our policy - but I'll gladly refund you!") Then the other GODLIKE POLICY... RULE THAT RULE TOO 2: All noisy patrons are EJECTED after one or two complaints, no refund! A pre-show bit has a girl running around the movie audience up on the screen, screaming and being chased by hungry zombies. Then it says in writing on the screen as she's being devoured something like "Quiet! Violators ejected or we let the zombies get you!" Followed by "YUM!" Yum indeed. I'll be back and I won't need to eat any brains to gain their knowledge, like Zombies do. I'll just have a great movie watching experience!! Thank goodness this gem exists! Come to Jersey and send us a rickety rackety clackity noisy train rids!

Second time visiting this location, I like it here because it's quiet, clean, and decent screenings. Comfortable seats and I ordered better food this time. The sweet (can't pronounce the name) cauliflower bite entree. It's served with fries and celery sticks and buffalo ranch (not vegan)/ketchup. I also ordered vegan chocolate chip cookies and seltzer water. It was all delicious but wish they sent order at the beginning of film. I'll do that next time. The servers were prompt and professional. Comfortable reclining seats and not over crowded usually during matinee. The restrooms are gender fluid so be respectful and hit the Alamo for $9 movie Tuesday's.

I'm no stranger to the Alamo Drafthouse brand. Ever since they first entered the NY Metro market in 2013 with the opening of the Yonkers location, I have been a fan. While I do not patron the aforementioned location as much as I used to (mainly due to programming, which is a separate topic), I still believe they deliver an elevated moviegoing experience and as such, hold a season pass. Anyway, there was a limited release I really wanted to see and noticed that only the Lower Manhattan location was showing it. Since my work schedule allowed it, I booked a ticket and made my way downtown. Drafthouse sets itself apart from other theater brands by showing a mix of classic, independent, and blockbuster films. Additionally, they have a full menu of food, and have a strict no talking/texting/lateness policy. Like the Brooklyn location, this theater is located in a multi-use complex at 28 Liberty Street a few escalator rides downstairs. As you enter, you're greeted by the box office, a section of merch, and a bar with some seating. Past the box office and down some stairs is a Kim's Video which contains a large selection of media for sale; this is also where the theaters are located. I was seated in theater 1 which had recliners and individual tables at each seat to place food. The theater looked great and has a lot to offer outside of actual film. Overall my experience was similar to that at other Alamos - service was good and all house rules were enforced. While there has been more competition over the years with theaters aiming to elevate the moviegoing experience, Alamo continues to deliver a service that makes me return time after time.

For specifics, see my prior review. I've never made a big habit of going to the theater for movies because I always end up with jerks sitting next to me. Alamo Drafthouse makes things fun and they don't let the assholes win. I've been a few times, and this the first time someone was talking and texting next to me. They addressed it immediately and explained the rules were strict, and if they didn't stop, they would be removed. I was amazed that at the end of the show, the manager comped one of my drinks and gave me a rain check. This means so much to me! Alamo Drafthouse for life!

I love coming to this location because they have (semi) reclining seats & individual tables (compared to the Brooklyn location). The theater and bathroom is always clean and the wait staff in the theater are attentive and friendly. I had the salted caramel milkshake and popcorn. I have been in love with the milkshake and I get it almost every time I'm at Alamo. Last row still has a great view of the screen!

First off the staff was awesome!! Big L the security, has a good sense of humor, very nice, and helpful. Its dinner + movie in the basement of a building. What a fantastic time. Once you get there is a nice size space. It has games, a bar and a few photo opts. The theater is small but clean and the reclining seats were everything. We got the chicken wings and fries both were tasty. The drinks were ok and little pricey.

Once you go Alamo Drafthouse, you can't go back! This movie watching experience is the best I've ever had (and back in the day, I used to watch at least one movie in theaters a week). The place is beautifully decorated with retro movie posters and statues everywhere. It has a cool vibe to it and doesn't feel as corporate as an AMC or Regal. The reclining seats in the theater itself is so comfortable and I absolutely love that they have a full menu and draft beer list here. I've had their mango cart road beer with an angry pepperoni pizza and it was the perfect meal. I only wish they would have a location in midtown closer to me!
