The not so great was the lobby concession area was a hot mess. Burnt popcorn being sold-like you not only could smell it, but see it on the kettle corn in the case. The floor was a mess, straw wrappers and popcorn and some guy added to it by dropping his alcohol drink and it spilled all over the floor and splashing up on me as I'm waiting for some pretzels to get made. (A worker wiped it up with his foot and a couple Sham-Wow cloths.) So the kid waiting on me took forever putting on his plastic gloves, shuffled over to make the pretzels, then stops, walks away-had no idea where. I figured I'd grab some water at the drink station. There's usually clear cups for water, but last night no cups. So I thought they either ran out or just use the soda cups. I grabbed a the middle cup. I was thirsty, small wasn't going to cut it. Hubby goes to pay while I go back to wait for the pretzels. Two boxes get put up for a lady, but no, those are chicken wings orders. The kid suddenly remembers the pretzels he took out of the freezer. Seconds later he hands me a box. The box was cold but it didn't register with me because at that moment my hubby says they charged him $7.00 for my cup of water. He said "fountain water is free I thought?" The kid said "yeah, but only in the clear cups, (which there weren't any) so I have to charge you for the cup." We go to our seats, my seat won't recline back. The feet part came out but the back was straight up and down. My hubbies leaned back, my friend to my right's did too. But not mine. I take a deep breath, it's ok. I'll enjoy my pretzels. Open the box, pick one up, it's frozen. Like rock solid frozen. I can't make this stuff up. So I walk back down to the concessions and a nice manager lady noticed me approaching. I said these are frozen. She grabbed the box and picked one up, she was like omg! These weren't even cooked! She went around to the prep area and showed a couple kids-one was the one that messed up the order. He didn't say a word to her. He just stood there. The other girl jumped into action with her manager because they were behind on pretzel orders. I got my pretzels fast. Rushed back to my non reclining seat and enjoyed them. But this is why I go to Kenwood.

I had no idea that Kenwood Theatre was an independently owned theater in the same group as the…read moreEsquire and Mariemont Theaters until we came here recently to see Wake Up Dead Man. And yet here it is, a dine-in movie theater next to Cincinnati's busiest shopping district that isn't owned by AMC, Cinemark or the like. Just a unique theater experience where you wouldn't expect to find one. As you walk in, there's a small concession stand where you can buy popcorn and some other smaller snacks. But the real move is to order food from your seat. Once you get to the theater, you can recline and heat your seat (really!) and press a button to summon a server to take your order. I'll admit I wasn't thrilled about the menu at first glance, but after looking at other options around Kenwood mall the prices began to look a lot more reasonable. We decided to order dinner at the theater along with a huge bowl of (refillable) popcorn. We weren't able to get into the theater until about 15 minutes before showtime. I'm not sure if that's standard or something specific to the movie and theater we were there for. It was no big deal, but didn't leave a lot of time to order and get our food before the movie started. We there with a group of six and ordered 2nd out of three sets of couples. But for some reason were last to get our food, well into the beginning of the movie. Popcorn came out first during the trailers, along with a Coke Zero that my husband and I shared. When dinner eventually showed up everything was hot and delicious, but I didn't pay a lot of attention to it because the movie was already well underway. It's also a bit hard to see your food once the movie starts so keep that in mind--don't get anything too sloppy or messy. The chicken quesadilla is maybe at the limit of sloppy. Manageable but be careful. Overall, this theater has a lot of pros: Locally owned, good food, small theaters, interesting movie selection, convenience of eating while watching a movie. However, it looses a few points for me for the 15-minute restriction on entering the theater and the delay in getting food once ordered. I get the convenience factor but I personally would rather eat in the brighter light during the trailers + before the movie I'm here to see starts.

I really like this movie theater!…read more First, the concessions area is great. The popcorn actually tastes like it has real butter instead of that super artificial oil flavor. They also have a small bar, so you can grab a glass of wine with your movie, plus the usual candy and snacks. And if you're a popcorn person, you can get a seriously huge bag. I saw someone walking out with a massive family sized bag and honestly respected it. The theater itself is very cozy and has that vintage charm you don't get at newer places. Even though it's small, it didn't feel stuffy or cold inside. I was totally comfortable in shorts. The seating is classic old-fashioned theater seating, no recliners or fancy upgrades, which honestly kind of adds to the nostalgic feel. That said, if you're looking for a super high-tech movie experience with perfect projection and luxury seats, you might want a bigger theater. The projector was a tiny bit oversized for the screen so a sliver of the image was cut off, which wasn't terrible but did catch my eye. Still, it didn't ruin the movie. One thing I loved is that they show older films, reruns, and niche movies along with new releases. It's a fun place to see something a little less mainstream while still having a cute date night in the heart of Mariemont Village. Overall, it's a charming, cozy theater that feels special in a way big chains don't. Perfect for a casual date night or a relaxed movie evening after getting dinner in the village.

I can tell you the excitement I had as a child going to school field trips here. You would pack a brown bag lunch and sit outside the museum by the fountains, and then enjoy whatever was playing at the Omnimax. What sweet memories! The Omnimax just went digital. In the past, before the show, you could stand outside and watch the film fly through the reels. You could even watch the workers reset the film in between shows. That area is still there, but there is now no need for film, as it is now digital. To be honest, I really couldn't tell any huge differences now compared to what it used to be. The volcano show was the first of their digital videos. The announcement before the show began reminded us that some of the improvements included more speakers behind the screen, a digital upgrade, and larger seats in the audience--all good things. Non-member pricing is nine dollars for the show. Member pricing is about 6 to 7 dollars. The show last little less than an hour. It is first come first serve, so try to get to the line about 15 minutes before the show begins. You can check ticket prices online to see how many seats are sold each showing. If you are checking out the museum, you must check out the Omnimax! It is definitely a good addition to your ticket.
