I attended this theater for the first time at the end of May 2009 for a showing of Terminator: Salvation.

The entire movie-going experience was very classy, and the antithesis of traditional multiplex movie-going. You enter the theater, not to a lobby with a busy concession stand, but a reception desk, where the person that greets you checks your reservation (or accepts your purchase) and then seats you in the lounge, where the wait staff serves you a drink from the bar and presents you with the menu.

Speaking of the menu, the food is definitely not concession stand material! Even though some theaters have expanded their selections to including sandwiches, nothing they serve can compare to the dishes available here. You are given the choice of when you would like the food delivered to your seat in the theater, and the wait staff on our visit was very punctual and responsive.

The seating in the theater is very nice as well, with small tables to hold your drinks and meal. There is even a call button that will summon the wait staff.

Overall, an excellent movie-going experience! The cost reflects the level of service and quality of food that you receive, but I think it's well worth it for what you get.

Highly recommended!
