I'd rate the overall experience at around a 4.2. Alamo offers something truly unique--the combination of a great atmosphere, friendly staff, quality food and drinks, all while enjoying a movie on the big screen is hard to beat. As for the individual items: The movie was about what we expected--not amazing, but enjoyable. We tried a few house-recommended snacks. The fried pickles, a personal favorite, were perfectly crisped spears with a delicious bite. The cheese fries topped with fried chicken were surprisingly good as every bite was enjoyable. However, the chicken Caesar wrap was a letdown--poorly wrapped and lacking in chicken. Despite that, we always enjoy our visits to Alamo. The experience as a whole keeps us coming back, and we always leave satisfied. read more

Oh y'all... The upholstery is shot. The concrete men's room sink had mold. How is that even possible? I ordered a local brew I hadn't had...still haven't because they didn't have it. Our pizzas were good, but not great. All that said, or server was first class and the movie presentation was without flaws. We miss when Alamo was at West Oaks Mall. Good times. read more

Alamo Drafthouse Cinema LaCenterra - Dinner Theater Near Me - Katy, Texas

As long as I have been in Texas, it was my first time at Alamo Drafthouse. One of my friends had free tickets to see a movie so we picked The Housemaid, which is a book series I started in my bookclub. I got there about 7 minutes before the movie started. The lights were already off. I had to figure out how to order food/drinks by finding the menu under the food tray. Let me tell you, the way the seat and the tray is shaped, you have to either turn sideways and then sit down OR you have to be about 90 pounds thin. I found the menu but still couldnt figure out how to order so then I saw on the front of the menu, "write, raise, push" instructions. Geez Louise. So there are little pieces of paper and a pen so you write your order down and push the button on the front of your tray and someone will come get your order and then bring it to you once its done. Okay.. good thing I've read all of the books pertaining to this movie because I spent 10 - 15 minutes figuring out the menu order process. I ordered the mushroom burger and fries with of course a Dr. Pepper babyyyy, its good and nice. DodoDoot. Anyway, I was shocked at how good the burger was. My friend ordered a pretzel and cauliflower bites. She said the cauliflower was nasty but I think it was just the sauce. The seats do recline but they dont heat up. I didnt like where the cup holders are situated because the guy next to me kept coughing and the cups they give you are the hard plastic types without a top. So yea, I probably drank flimflam from his cough. I would give it 3.2 out of 5 experience. read more

Visited for a screening of Sinners and wanted to check out a new theatre. Located in LaCenterra, it is easily accessible from the connected parking garage. The scanner would not pull up my reservation for tickets, but the concierge verified us and showed us to the theatre. I was underwhelmed with the seats due to tattered upholstery on almost all the seats. My boyfriend's seat also was defective and did not recline. Our server- Colton- promptly greeted us and notified a manager quickly regarding the seat. They came over, apologized and gave us new seat options as well as snack coupons which I really appreciated (the seats were sold accidentally). The women's bathroom was a bit untidy- a few stalls were overloaded with toilet paper or inaccessible due to an overflow. To eat we ordered a margarita, whisky sour, buffalo wings and buffalo chicken pizza. The whisky sour and pizza were really good, the marg and wings pretty average. The servers weren't a distraction to the movie and brought our check in a timely manner. This was a nice place to visit but would love to see the seats redone. read more

Food was overly salty and just overall too greasy to eat. I got the wings & my partner got a burger and both of our food definitely gave us indigestion from all the grease. The chairs are extremely old and fabric are falling apart, the black/dark gray bits get stuck to your clothes after you get off the seats. The only good thing was their services and how fast everything came out & how efficient everything was. I wished everything else matched that. Love all the old movie posters hanging on the wall of the theater, I thought that was nice. read more

Very nice Alamo Drafthouse location! It is in a shopping center with plenty of parking out front. They have a restaurant/bar area in the front lobby, which features ample happy hour options, even on the weekends! Our theater was in fairly good condition (though the seats were a little worn), but the seats had elevated leg rests, which was really nice! It was a little chilly in the theater (which I appreciate in Houston!), so I used a blanket which really helped. The previews were directly relevant to the movie we were watching, which was really fun too. Food was good but a little salty. We will definitely be back! read more

The loyal customers of the Alamo Drafthouse really deserved better. Waking up to a random email about your Alamo Drafthouse season pass being canceled effective immediately because AD has shut down is NOT how fans of AD should've been made aware of its closing. read more

I actually love Alamo Draft House, but the last 2 times I went, the food was so salty I couldn't eat it. The seats are showing considerable wear. The bathroom common sink has never been cleaned and has black mold. Service is still outstanding but corporate needs to make an audit. read more

I love this whole concept of relaxing in a comfy chair, kicking your feet up, and having someone bring you food and drinks! My only dissatisfaction was waiting so long for a drink refill. I followed the procedure, waited 20 minutes then went in search of someone to order in person with- that worked out, but would have preferred to stay in my comfy seat. read more

I loved this theater before tonight. I pay for the monthly membership which I am about to cancel. Near the end of the movie the mother and daughter sitting on my right left abruptly before the end of the movie...because as it turns out the daughter threw up. I turned on my light to signal someone to come, the first time, they just turned off my light. The second time I said someone's thrown up, and all he said was "we got it." Clearly, you don't got it, if you're going to leave a pile of throw up near patrons and just not do anything about it when everyone nearby can smell it. Just absolutely disgusting. It was left there the last 30 minutes of the movie. read more

Went to the Alamo Drafthouse for the first time yesterday to watch the new Michelle Yeoh movie, "Everything, Everywhere, All At Once". The movie was wonderful and the experience was wonderful from the second I ordered my ticket to the moment I left. I booked tickets ahead on their website. Smooth checkout process. $11 plus a couple more dollars for the convenience fees and such made for a nice $14 spent. When I got there, I didn't even have to scan my ticket. Just showed up, asked the attendant where to go, was escorted to my seat, and boom. Simple, no fuss. The seats recline and are very spacious. I got pretty big thighs but had room to scoot left to right. Super comfy. There's a little table with a huge menu of food and beers to choose from built into the seat. I didn't end up getting anything, but prices seemed to be pretty affordable ($10-$15/item) and the servers come quick. It was a bit of a nuisance seeing them dash around throughout the movie, but not too much of a bother. If I took an edible beforehand, I'm sure I'd appreciate the quick service delivering munchies at my beck and call lmao. Overall I had a great time. Easy parking, super efficient operations, great place to watch a movie. I'll be back to catch the new Dr. Strange movie next month. read more

So frustrated with this experience. They need new updated seats. Bought designated seats and my seat is broken with sharp sharp metal points poking out into the back of my knees. I can't recline. Update the theatre already! read more

Drinks from the bar are great. Ordered doubles and they were made well. Service in the theater is quick and well done. Highly recommend for date night. read more

I live over 20 miles away and will still got out of my way to go to movies here. With my Alamo Drafthouse Season Pass, for about $20, I can watch a movie every day here (companion passes are about $18 and that price is prorated based on when you purchase it in the billing cycle of your own season pass, which can make frequent movie going affordable for families). Recently, the film selection has become more rote, understandable as they can no longer survive on a niche audience, but the specially programmed events and special screenings are still hard to beat. Recently attended a 12 hour all night horror movie marathon. The food has gotten more basic, probably easing the burden on the kitchen but the special menus can be great (the spiced popcorn available after the release of Wakanda Forever is terrific). read more

I go to Alamo at least once a week . The service is great and the portion are large . Little pricey but you get a lot for your money . I even go alone and I love it . It's a great escape Bebe go to a movie with out food a drinks it's so much more fun read more

Contrary to what some might think it's actually not bad for a business lunches. Sound is fairly isolated from the food and beverage area at a reasonable price.parking wise since it's next to low rise condos is pretty hard even with a garage. I would suggest daytime activities here. Night time even for weekdays gets pretty packed due to the center green area that parents take their kids too. In general it's an elevated version of their prior decor. For the cinco ranch area this is your equivalent of city center. Hard to go wrong with anything in general here, but come prepared to spend at least $30 read more

It pains me to give my beloved Alamo Drafthouse a poor review, but they really dropped the ball on our visit. I am an Alamo Drafthouse Victory rewards member and used the Alamo App to purchase my tickets. I received an emailed confirmation of my purchase as well as a digital ticket. We arrived for the show to find a large group taking up the entire row where we were supposed to be seated. The Alamo waiter also happened to be there taking their orders. I explained very politely that I thought they may be seated in our seats and showed them my digital ticket and confirmation. They stated that they had the tickets for the seats and tried to show me via the website, however, that doesn't prove a thing. I asked if I could see their "digital ticket" to confirm and the woman really really looked as if she didn't have it saying..,Here is the website..see? We bought the row. I asked once more, "I understand, however can you show us the ticket? Here is ours showing we purchased these seats." At this point the waited interrupted to say, "Sometimes the system sells the same tickets twice." So I said.."Ok..well can someone please produce a ticket then? Here is ours" At no time did anyone in this group show a ticket. The waiter was a nice kid and seemed really stressed and said he would go get a manager explaining once again that the "system" double sold the ticket again, which in my experience working over 24 years in tech believe is very unlikely, but I didn't want to make trouble for the kid who was basically left out to dry by his manager that never even came over to speak with us. They never produced a ticket or confirmation. We did. They got to keep the seats. Meanwhile, we were left standing in the back to find seats. My husband followed the young man, who was very polite, it wasn't his fault to go speak to the manager. They found some other seats for us much closer to the screen, however, it wasn't where we wanted to sit and no one ever came over to apologize or speak to us. I have worked for a major telecom company for over 20 years and have managed a retail store as a store manager for several years and know that when you are the one in charge, it is up to you to step up, address guests about the problem and how you will resolve and at least apologize. Also- How the hell do these other guests get to keep our seats and never produce a ticket? Seriously? That is total baloney. We have never ever ever had an issue on an Alamo visit before and if we had, someone always made it right., The waiter was a nice kid, but the manager should have definitely have stepped up to intervene or apologize and offered something in my opinion. Some soft drinks, a voucher..something. At bare minimum..an APOLOGY? Lol. Nothing. Zip. It was a total ball drop. Not cool. I didn't know that at this location, people sitting in your seats get to keep them even if you have a confirmed payment email AND can produce the ticket! Nope- you get made to move even though they refuse to produce a ticket if their own and no one apparently cares. We left the waiter a good tip. It wasn't his fault, but just know that if you arrive at this location with proof you purchased the seat, this particular location really doesn't care so good luck! It is musical chairs here and the first person to arrive gets the seats regardless of they can produce a ticket or not. If I had been the manager on duty, I would have come over personally to ask the guests to please produce the tickets as the waiter was clearly not comfortable sue it it being a large group of almost ten people. At the very least, the manager should have come over to our new seats and apologized. I would have said, "I deeply apologize for this inconvenience...this is not what we strive for here at Alamo but we want you to have a great night.~~~~ will take your order and I am going to get you folks vouchers for a future visit and I have some hot buttered popcorn and soft drinks coming on the house. Thank you for being a victory rewards member and we hope you enjoy the show and come back to see us! " That's what I would have done, but, I actually cared about my guests and would be embarrassed if someone had that experience in my business , was a rewards member and it wasn't their fault. It was a really big bummer to not get the seats you paid for in a nearly sold out show, but a sincere apology, or any for that matter would have helped and the hot buttered popcorn and soft drinks would have made my husband happy and feel acknowledged and it would have made ME happy because my husband wouldn't have been complaining to me and quietly seething in his seat all night pissed off these other people basically stole our seats. Boo to you Alamo La Centerra. You need to do better. read more

Nope. The server forgot my entire order. It was honestly unenjoyable unless you want servers zooming in front of you every few minutes to drop off orders / take new orders ....

My husband and I love coming to Alamo! They have all kinds of film events, including the Graveyard Shift on Friday (late) nights. The food and drinks are always really good. I love all the fun videos they show prior to the trailers, so get there early. AND best of all, they do not tolerate noisy people in the theater. read more

Listen and listen good. I loved Alamo Drafthouse before tonight. But after attending the Graveyard Shift TRIPLE feature of People Under the Stairs, Squirrel (a short film), and an EXCLUSIVE showing of Villains...I am a, pardon the language, HECKING LIFELONG DIEHARD FAN. Watch 50 films during a Graveyard Shift and you get a Graveyard Shift pass for a YEAR. See a hundred? You get to party in the Graveyard FOR LIFE. SOLD. This is officially a thing I do on Fridays now, IF they aren't sold out. They're doing a deal right now where for $20 you get: TWO CURATED MENU ITEMS A FREE MOVIE TICKET $3 DONATION TO A CHARITY Considering just a burger there is almost $20 in itself, you are a FOOL not to take advantage of what's on offer. Their food, while expensive, is great. Best (bottomless) popcorn anywhere. Always warm and fresh with real clarified butter! Their chocolate chip cookies are choice, and 9 times outta 10 you'll find me sucking down a chocolate shake. The best. Even their avocado hummus plate is the bomb. This is the only movie theater where you can see movies like Pulp Fiction, The Big Lebowski, Jaws, and so much more along with the big new releases. Considering the auditorium opens up half an hour before the show with pre-show entertainment curated specifically for your movie, you're getting like 25% more money's worth than any of those other crappy places, and guess what? You will NEVER be caught in a theater with people on their cell phones or talking. They take disruptions seriously, so I take Alamo Drafthouse seriously. I will never, ever attend another movie theater again in my life unless someone else is paying for my ticket. Mark my word. Don't know what to do tonight? Feeling bored and need some entertainment with character? Want an Old Fashioned served to you in an actual GLASS in the comfort of your reclining seat at the movies? Remember the Alamo. #NotSponsored, just a HUGE fan. read more

Service was great Place was clean Love the no noise rule after the credits finish Love that they bring anything they need to you. The chairs could be a little more spacious.

Solid Experience -- I'd give this 4.5 stars, but that is not an option. Service was excellent, food was expected, and plenty of drink options to choose from. I will say that this not a place to try a cocktail, maybe keep it to wine/beer. Otherwise, overall a great experience to watch a movie. read more

A cool spot for movies, overpriced food and drinks. Love the fact they are movie lovers. It shows in the culture, decor and service. Everything else needs work. Bar is not a place you want to drink or even chill at, kinda confused between a cafe and a bar. Food isnt too bad, but its a theater so what do you expect. Will go and keep going but kinda hoping it changes for the better. Oh and warm beer.... Not cool read more

Literally one of the worst movie experiences I've ever had. Two patrons next to us were being obnoxiously loud, taking videos of the movie, making a phone call in the theater, cursing extremely loudly, and using their phone throughout the entire showing. So I did the proper thing and reported it on the little card and when the waiter came back, he handed me a paper that said, "The manager has to witness the patrons talking or being disturbing before we can do anything about them." With that note, he also gave me two rain check tickets and a "snack pass" for my next visit. I was fine with the refund, the issue lies in the fact that they still did nothing about it, and said that they needed to witness it in person yet made no measure to witness it in person. It got so bad that my friend that was with me had to walk out and spoke with the manager while he was walking out, and the manager said "I was about to go in and tell them" meaning he was about to go let those patrons know that they needed to quiet down. Yet even after all that he never did because I stayed behind after my friend left and after 15 minutes of those patrons still being obnoxious and the manager standing in the walkway and looking in our direction and seeing them being obnoxious and disrespectful, did nothing about it. I then got up from my seat because it had gotten to a point where I was just annoyed and frustrated in the movie honestly wasn't even that good and spoke with him and told him about the situation and he pretty much just nodded his head and shrugged it off. I've worked in customer service for as long as I can remember and one thing I'll tell you is that man does not deserve his job. Not being able to follow standard procedures that you expect other patrons to follow is absolutely ridiculous. In the previews, the instruction state that if you have a disturbing patron to write it down on the card and call the waiter over and they'll give them a warning, and then if it happens again, those patrons get kicked out. So why is it that I'm able to follow procedure yet a manager is not? The issue wasn't even us getting our refunds back or getting some type of compensation. It's the fact that nothing was done even while the manager witnessed the patrons acting up in front of him and did nothing for about 45 minutes after he was notified. After I left I don't know if anything happened, but it was close to the end of the movie so I doubt that it did. read more

I don't know why I've been seeing so many bad reviews about this place. This place is awesome!!! I went to the one in Katy off of Kingsland a few months ago and it was a pretty old location that moved to La Centerra. It definitely exceeded my expectations of my old experience with Alamo Drafthouse. This place is very eye-catching once you first walk in. The bar area is so cool. AND funny enough thing is when we walked in we saw someone in a Michael Myers mask walking around scaring people. When we walked into the movies it looked very simple and chic. Once we started looking around we got the gist of how to order and everything was very accessible and easy to use. There is even a light underneath the little tray area where you can see even during the movie. We ordered the steak egg rolls, the ribeye sandwich with fries and a bunless jerk chicken sandwich. I also ordered a house sangria. Every single item was delicious. However I wasn't too fond of the ribeye meat in the ribeye sandwich. It was a little rubbery but the sauce in the sandwich made up for it. Way to go Alamo Drafthouse. Even though I live more towards Cypress area in 290... I would still definitely drive out here for the experience. Also please do note that you have to be patient with service. This is not a typical restaurant and they have to do rounds. I would definitely order before the movie starts.. or even before the previews come on. read more

Our new "go to" movie theater! We loved the Alamo Drafthouse at West Oaks mall years ago and were sad when it closed. We had thought this one was too far away from Sugar Land, but it's actually quick to get to. I love iPic in the River Oaks district and still go there because of the quiet pod seating but this is a great second option and much much cheaper. I love the powered recliner chairs, food ordering, lit underside of the tables so people don't (and shouldn't) use their phone flashlights to look at the menu. I also love being able to pick my seat in advance. The whole place feels new and clean. Yes, it's very "big movie theater" feel, but I just want a quiet movie theater so I can watch the movie. The lounge and bar area are a plus. There are plenty of food options right next to the Alamo drafthouse in case you don't want to eat during the movie. Parking is easy easy. read more

Alamo Drafthouse Cinema LaCenterra - Dinner Theater Near Me - Katy, Texas

We went to see the new Batman movie which was a very long movie and we never got water that we ordered to wash down our meals, shakes, and cocktails. The food was fine except the fish and chips, which should be avoided at all costs. The service seemed odd, as a different person was taking care of us each time we interacted with them. Beyond all of that, the theater had a very strange strong odor that was sort of sweet, like sugar cookies (but with an offensive undertone). It was so strong and overpowering and ruined my experience there. Not sure what the smell is in there, but there is no way I will go in there with the same conditions. It was bad. read more

My favorite movie experience and the best popcorn ever! Love the whole Alamo vibe! Give it a try.

My first Alamo Drafthouse experience. Went to a special engagement showing on a documentary here. Chances are good I would have never checked them out as it's about 70 minutes from my home. I really wanted to catch this movie and there was only one screening and one place screening it...so away I went. It's located in an outdoor mall. We lucked out and scored a parking spot right on front. When you walk in to the lobby it's just an open space, no employees in sight. In the lobby there are couches where you can wait for your theater to open also a bar/restaurant with plenty of tables. Close to showtime we moved into the theater. It was spacious but I was surprised how few seats there were. Each seat is a recliner with a built in table. The foot rest on my seat wouldn't stay engaged so it continually fell down. After the previews there was a little psa about talking during the movie and cell phone usage and how neither would be tolerated. I liked that a lot. The movie was great I'm very glad we went. read more

One of the worst experiences I have ever had at a restaurant. After 10 minutes of no one showing to our table I was able to communicate to the hostess we haven't been waited on. Our waitress came to the table twice. Once to get drink orders and once for the food order. Our drinks from the bar took 35 minutes. Food was ok. Had to flag down a waiter to get a second round of drinks. He was quick. If go here ask for Q. Our waitress seem to be more interested in her social agenda at the bar and hostess stand. I bet this place wont be around long if they don't tend to the service of tables. read more
