I love seeing movies here. The food and service are great and the atmosphere is cool. The menu has been improving as well!
The seats are uncomfortable but the service is the absolute best and the food is good! Love this theater and will probably haunt these halls when I die lmao
It was my first time watching a movie at this theater, and it was really fun. You could order some light bites and drinks at your seat. Write down your selections and press the call button, and a staff member will come over to take your order.
Like other people had mentioned, the seats were not that comfortable. For me I thought they were fine. It was a fun experience.
I live watching a movie while having food & beverage service at my table. Great as a date night or myself as it's also in the heart of the Mission District. While the bigger theatre has the biggest screen, the other 4 smaller theaters have big screens too
I was here on Friday, the power went out right at the apex of the movie (a suspense/horror movie called Weapons), and the staff handled it horribly. First, no one ever came to tell us what was going on, so we had to go and tell them. When the power went back on ten minutes later, they refused to rewind the movie to where it was when the power went out. When we asked for our money back they said they couldn’t because we bought the ticket with a monthly pass and to go to some stupid website and complain there, after we waited 20 minutes in line to talk to someone. When we asked to go and watch a showing of it that had just started elsewhere in the same movie theater so we could see the end, they wouldn’t do that either. In the end we paid more than $80 for some popcorn and beer to NOT see a movie. The staff wasn’t empowered in the least to make things right and didn’t even try. Will never, ever be back.
Really fun experience with amazing service. The cocktails and food are a great addition to your movie choice and they make ordering during the film very easy so you don’t miss out on anything.
Highly recommend the fried pickles, can’t wait to go back.
This is my favorite movie theater!!!!
Cute theater and interesting atmosphere. There's no parking other than street parking (as far as I could tell). It was pretty easy to find street parking on a weekday afternoon, but still something to consider if you are driving there
Surprisingly good
First time and I totally loved being waited on by staff. Best way to eatch a movie

Communication between the servers and the kitchen is poor
Love the Alamo. Great food and service. I really appreciate their noise and cellphone policy.
Our visit to the New Mission Alamo was a memorable part of our trip to Sam Francisco. Be sure to buy tickets to the big theater one for the bigger screen.
I am begging you: please fix the milkshake machine!!! I will start a GoFundMe if I have to. I will write to my congressperson. I will have a child solely to offer it up to you as tribute. You hooked me on the movie-watching-milkshake-guzzling experience and I've been deprived of the guzzle for far too long. Photo of milkshakeless table attached.
The customer service here was overall really fast and responsive.
If you live for over-the-top flourishes this is a film enthusiast’s paradise — there are cute themed specials that tie into releases, movie parties with interactive props, and special community event days like Terror Tuesday, Queer Theory 101, and Weird Wednesday. The theater partners with Radio Valencia and Amoeba — Your Favorite Mission Gem’s Favorite Mission Gem. Plus, the architecture and interior of theater exceeded my expectations.
Would be 5-stars if those mozz sticks weren’t served w the tiniest sauce cup (criminal 😢😥) and if that one receptionist wasn’t hella rude.
This place is my closest local theater. I wanted to like it. It has that local theater vibe despite being a chain. Anything is better than another empty theater in my city. The place has a nice building with some charm.
Unfortunately, they have draconian and dramatic policies, and believe that allows them to treat customers poorly. The place seems well attended, so I suppose they have regulars who know the drill and get their jollies out of watching the other patrons getting rustled by the staff. The funny part is the rules are in the guise of a disruption free movie experience, but then they have table service inside the theater.
There are much better movie experiences to be had in SF and the local area.
