It had been many years since our last visit to CineBistro. We liked it back then, but somehow never…read moremade it back, and between the pandemic, movie prices, and life in general, it just fell off our radar. Fast forward to now: my wife wanted to see the new movie Disclosure Day, which we both enjoyed, and she decided it would be the perfect excuse for a dinner-and-movie night. So we headed back to CineBistro. I'd recommend arriving about 30 minutes before the movie starts so they have time to take your order and you can hopefully finish eating before the film begins. Prices are on the mid-to-high side, and they do add an 18% gratuity to the bill. That said, you can adjust it if you want to tip more, less, or remove it entirely. For dinner, my wife had the Shrimp Florentine Linguini, it came with sautéed Gulf shrimp, fresh linguini, roasted garlic cream sauce, spinach, marinated tomatoes, Parmigiano Reggiano, and wild mushrooms. I had the CMX Burger, which is two Angus Beef Patties, White American Cheese, Lettuce, Tomato, Onions, Pickles, Special Sauce on Potato Roll. The burger also comes with fries. Soft drinks and bottled water are $7, which felt a little steep to me, although soft drinks do come with free refills. You can also just ask for a glass of water. The seats are very comfortable, with small tray tables or fold-out tables so you can eat right at your seat while watching the movie. Food is delivered directly to you, which makes the whole experience convenient and enjoyable. Overall, we were very happy with the food. It was tasty, and we have no complaints there. You really do get what you pay for, and this is a different kind of movie-going experience with good food to go along with it. If the movie is good too, it makes for a great night out. We would definitely come back.

It's $10 on Tuesdays and Wednesdays but I'd pay more for a reclining seat. Also the movie screen felt smaller. On a positive note, bathrooms were emasculate. Not sure if I'll be back.

Greeted right away by the friendly hostess at the customer service desk. If you bought tickets on line you can just go to concession area to get food drinks , you look over the menu while in cue which goes very fast, and order. Drinks are made for you and you can a nice big bowl for self serve popcorn with butter or lots of flavors for toppings. All other food is brought to your reserved seat, just give them the theater and your seat numbers. Within less than 10 mins wait(we snacked on popcorn and our drinks) we had an amazing pressed cuban - delicious! And also a huge soft fresh pretzel with cheese for dipping. All for less than $30! Previews were less than 15 mins(closer to 10mins) . We will be back for sure.

We have not been to this theatre in over 20 years, but they were the only theatre that had a movie…read morewe wanted to see. It was previously known as University Square Cinema, and though the name has changed, it is in the same location. So it was easy to find. We bought tickets online, and only had to show them on our phone to get in. Easy! The prices were also competitive with other theatres. Our show was not in a reclining seat theatre (number 9), but the seats were comfortable & we had a table that moved in and out for concessions purchased. We ate before coming, so we did not buy any food or drink. We did use the bathrooms before the show. This is where one star comes off. They were not in the best condition, but did have toilet paper, soap and towels. Our movie had good sound and looked great. Afterwards there was a Q&A with the writer and editor. What a cool experience. However the local movie critic monopolized time with them for the first fifteen minutes, and we had to leave. We will definitely be back!

This is such a great roadside attraction in Plant City. You can't miss this place if you are…read moredriving in I-4. It's right on the exit. The tickets are 25 per person for general admission, but you can get discounts on various sites. After going though the gift shop, there is an interactive area with a play grounds, mini golf, splash pad, and fossil excavation. There are also two indoor areas, including an animatronic dinosaur display, and skeleton display. Going further are various areas of static dinosaur statues, with plenty of dinosaurs to see. There is also a mammoth area as well. You can easily spend an hour or two just seeing the displays. They also added an animatronic dinosaur band, which is very similar to Chuck E Cheese. Staff are friendly and very helpful, but I wish there were more to explain the dinosaurs and displays. While most of the area and activities are free, there are some additional costs for other activities. If you want to do fossil excavation and the train ride, that cost extra and you can buy a package for them. There is also a dinosaur scooter ride for 5 dollars, which your can ride a dinosaur shaped scooter around an area for 3 minutes. It's similar to the animal scooters you see at the malls. There are also animatronic dinosaur rides for a dollar, which are near the indoor museum area. It's a slow moving ride that lasts two minutes. Best of all, adults are allowed to ride too. Various photo ops are available as well, including a saddled dinosaur to cowboy up on. Parking is free and there are no metal detectors or scanners to go though. It is a tourist trap attraction, but a very good one especially if you love dinosaurs. While the regular admission plus extra costs for other activities can get expensive, it's still worth going at least once. Kids and adults will enjoy this fun place! Overall: A

To preface - I am writing this review as a mom of a 1.5 and 2.5 year old but providing my insight…read moreas a former homeschooled child (2nd grade - 6th grade) visiting museums ad nauseam. The set up of this museum is underwhelming but overwhelming in the moment. After purchasing tickets, you walk immediately into a water table area which is quite large but hard for little kids to interact with the water. By little kids, I mean 1.5 (walking age) to 3 yo old. Big kids are running around and throwing balls into the water and there are maybe 5 step stools total to use to reach the water. It might be a nice add to have a little kids water area attached to the larger water table. Plus the seating for parents are plastic Adirondack chairs. Maybe they're easier to clean or replace but additional benches might be a better use of the seating. All in all, it's a rather jolting start to the museum experience. Next, you have to go back out to the lobby area to catch ONE elevator to go up to the second and third floors. The second floor was so packed, we could hardly get off the elevator. I have to preface, we are in spring break but I kid you not, every single station and toy was being used and the kids were FERAL. Bigger kids were running around, shoving younger kids out of the way (lord of the flys iykyk) which is understandable cause 6-9 year old are hyped up too. But the set up was really hard to go from one area to the next without elbowing someone in the face. The stations were cool but the flow is not the best. Speaking for 6-9 year olds too, it seemed hard for them to really play cause there were so many little kids in the way. I'm not sure how to combat something like this (accommodate for diff age ranges) but there was simply not enough space overall. And no big jungle gym or trampoline area or plastic ball area with nets for the opportunity to fling their little kid bodies around. The third floor was extremely underwhelming and a poor use of space. I think the skeleton of the dinosaur takes up way too much room and the space can be utilized a lot better by brining it down to the area with the train set. Upstairs could be a huge opportunity for a jungle gym, plastic ball pits or netting or airplanes or something else that is a lot more interactive. I feel like the set up of the museum is off. There is no natural flow and people get stuck in each of the stations. Especially if you have multiple kids you're trying to chase, it's kinda a nightmare. All in all, we won't be returning until the kids are older and it's way too hot outside to do anything else.

There were bugs…read morecrawling everywhere, the theater was dirty from top to bottom, and to make it even worse, I LEFT WITH BUG BITES after the movie. That is absolutely unacceptable and disturbing. The seats were filthy, uncomfortable, and clearly never cleaned, the floors were sticky and gross, and the entire environment felt unsanitary and unsafe. I paid to watch a movie -- not to sit in a dirty seat and get bitten by bugs. This location is a health hazard, and management should be embarrassed. Until this place is properly cleaned and taken seriously, do not waste your money here. One of the worst theater experiences I've ever had.
