My favorite date night spot! Service is great, vibes are great, and food was delicious. Would be back soon!

They steal money of your card and management does nothing even after calling and talking to them nothing was resolved

So I just visited this theater, first time for my boyfriend and I. We ordered food and beer and it took forever to get to us. I actually had to go get it myself. The worst through was a bartender named Tony was super nice to me at first, and decided to be mean and disrespectful when we closed our tab. I called him over, he looked at me, waved me off and sent his coworker with the bill. never again will I visit this establishment. read more

First impressions definitely count on my end, especially after reading and researching on my own so that I could have some idea of what to expect during my visit. I have been to Cinepolis and so this isn't my first movie theatre with "service at the push of a button" Located in the old town Pasadena, there is public parking across from this theatre, I payed $12 bux that evening for my visit. I decided to come watch "The First Omen" here and for the experience that this theatre offers. Upon arrival, I was greeted and checked in for my movie, however, the escalators were out of order that night and I took the elevator down to the basement. As soon as the elevator doors opened, I walked into a beautiful large lounge, bar and TV's, comfy couches. Drank my beer until it was time for me to head inside the theatre. Found my "pod" after I spotted the letter all the way down the seat, not easy to find but I had an idea when I purchased my tickets online. No "pillow" but did find the blanket like all reviews have mentioned. Luckily, I was seated by myself so I didn't have to share the tiny table in the middle of both seats. food Service-well I pushed my button and waited around, good 20 minutes and then I noticed that the "Wi-Fi" was not working and I could not view the menu. So the young lady that came by ended up giving me a paper menu. Mind you, it was dark and show had started already so I had to use the light in my phone to read and once again press and wait for someone to come along and get my order. I went with the truffle fries and mozzarella sticks. both were delicious so that was one highlight of the night. Also, they pre-charge your card for $75 dollars prior to your order, and they release holds once you close your tab. Would I come back? It's a big maybe... If a movie gets my attention bad enough for me to make the trip to this theatre because I did enjoy my own space and the recliner was comfortable, the blanket did not have a pleasant smell and therefore I only used it to cover my legs. I am not much of a "movie person" but I wanted to visit this place. Another delay for me, was having to wait for my tab/receipt to get to me since they do "last call" and then I had to wait with everyone until the server came with the receipts. Lastly, by midnight, the women's restroom was a disaster, some toilets full of paper unflushed, etc. any who I made it out of there; thanks for reading my honest opinion. FYI- Ipic I am still waiting for the hold to drop off from Saturday's visit (now Tuesday) read more

I was so disappointed I went from a hard long working day trying to take my family of 5 out so I decided to go see blink twice however I was there early so I had to wait before being seated so I decided to order drinks for 5 of us at the bar and that's where the bad service started I went to ordered drinks at the bar and the bartender was too busy talking that he took forever to come to us about 30 minutes in I approach the bartender myself asking if I can order drinks after that I went in to see my movie with my family and there was super fast I ordered food for 5 people and drinks the food came in within minutes the waiter said last call I will be taking your plates not even giving me a chance to finish my food I also asked for a blanket and never brought me the blanket I had ask for another drink and it wasn't ever brought to me .... it was just all bad for a Friday.. I had all good things to say about the IPIC and the day I decided to show my family the place for the first time it wasn't the greatest service so I don't recommend a Friday maybe it was just a bad day for all the workers. read more

If you want a truly unique fancy and exciting movie experience and don't mind paying a premium IPIC is worth trying out. The theater is generally clean and tidy, seats are huge and comfy contributing to a pleasant environment. they got full bar with very nice lounge. staff/servers are polite and ready to assist. :)) read more

IPIC is an awesome way to watch your favorite movies! I love their bed seating at the front of the theater and enjoy the fact that they offer blankets. I feel so comfortable here! The reason why I say only 4 stars is because everything gets so expensive for what you get once you enter the establishment. The cocktails are not very strong although you're paying for them to be, and the food is pricy--decent, but not worth the higher charges. All in all, my favorite theater but it all adds up pretty quickly for what you're getting. read more

This theater has been here a while and it's nice TJ have a spot with minimal seats per showing and comfy table service while you enjoy the show. I'm giving 4 stars because it too too long to get our order and for a follow up order. The staff outside the theater in the foyer were really hospitable and friendly. The seats came with blankets but no pillow. They could use a seat remodel soon. Otherwise the film was clear, seats were good. Price wasn't astronomical nor the menu items which was a surprise. read more

I love this theatre. Love the staff. Love the food. Love the atmosphere. We were slightly confused about the popcorn this time though. Minor issue. I am a gold member. I know I can get max two popcorns (46 oz in size) per visit per ticketed guest. I asked for my free popcorn at the beginning of the film and got a bag that wasn't fresh and wasn't filled to the top. (See photo) (I used to work in a movie theater so I know how the bags are supposed to be filled.) Then, about mid way through the movie, I asked for the second bag and received a smaller size popcorn. Definitely wasn't 46 oz. Maybe I'm wrong, but I remember previously receiving two bags of equal size. The second bag WAS warm and fresher thankfully. read more

Ambiance- dim lighting, casual, romantic, relaxing Great date spot! Clean, spacious. Reclining leather seats with blankets? How thoughtfully prepared, IPIC! Food- there's a small table between the paired seats to place your food and drinks. Came in with zero expectation because theater foods I've tried in America just isn't worth spending money on. To my surprise, the items we got were tasty. Buffalo Chicken Spring Rolls comes fried or baked? I'm not entirely sure, but the wrapping was crispy. The filling was packed in there. Not mind-blowingly flavorful, but still enjoyable. Truffle fries, just get it. It's so addictive lol. Both were great movie-viewing foods. We also got the Burrata Margherita Pizza (thin crust) also very good. Service- Hard working young staff. They took our orders and served us our food to our seats. Helpful. Friendly. Thoroughly cleaned up the room after the end of our movie. They truly made the experience worthwhile overall! read more

This is such a cute and unique theater. It has a pool table and a full service bar and food! The theater was not too busy nor packed, it was just right. Guests were hanging out in the bar area, eating, drinking and watching the Laker game. The theater is cozy. They have reclining seats, a blanket, and a small table from which to eat from. Very romantic and comfortable. The pool table was not busy, we played a few games until they informed us they were closing. Staff were friendly, attentive and helpful. This is definitely a good spot to come on a date night as it is spacious enough to intimately enjoy the amenities iPic has to offer. I definitely recommend iPic! read more

Yes another iPic theater under my belt. Let me heavily recommend to come at minimum an hour before your movie to enjoy the atmosphere and ambiance of this place. It's very chic and cozy. My wife and I came and decided to eat before the movie because we don't favor eating in the dark. The bartender was very friendly and let us know if we don't finish our food we can get it delivered to our seats. That was a cool thing to know. We both had some drinks. And ordered the chicken and waffles. Which were tasty. When we sat down we ordered a large popcorn and additional drinks - El Corozon = delicious Only thing I would ask for and change - is please up the AC. I WAS HOT!! Lol read more

Overall such a fun experience. I love the half off wine on Wednesdays. Seats are comfy and include a blanket. some servers are fantastic and go above and beyond. I had a few questions related to the food for my server and she made me feel like a burden... left me feeling awkward and a bit uncomfortable. I like trying different things on the menu, last night we had spicy tuna on crispy rice as well as the pear and prosciutto pizza. The pizza was incredible, worth trying. We actually ended up ordering another one. But The spicy tuna was so miserable. The rice wasn't crispy, it was stale yet soggy. Rice Tasted like it had been sitting for days and had lingering taste like it had been fried in old oil. The tuna itself was okay, definitely not spicy. For $21, don't bother its a really tiny portion. Overall a fun date night, just be ready to spend. read more

With the amount of mixed reviews, I wasn't sure what to expect from my experience here, but I was pleasantly surprised. My sister and I came to watch A Man Called Otto, and everything went very smoothly from checking in to ordering food. We had the boss burger and chicken tacos, both of which were surprisingly delicious and flavorful! Definitely the best food I've ever had at a movie theater. The only disappointing item was the strawberry cocktail my sister had, which was overly artificial. The prices were what I'd expect out of a fancy theater, and the service was on point. I'd definitely recommend for a classy night out! read more

One thing I enjoy doing on my birthday is going to a nice theater and catching a movie. It had been quite a few years since we visited IPIC in Pasadena, and ordered our tickets online for a showing at 3:15 on a work day. After entering the theater, we were greeted and asked for our name and were immediately found and notified about the escalator being serviced, which was no problem for us. They also have an elevator if needed. We were given the WiFi password and notified about the cell service not working down stairs. He was 100% correct once we were down by the bar, there was zero cell service which is awesome. We were a bit early and ordered two drinks after chatting with the bartender who was nice and made some suggestions and alterations based on our preferences. We went into the theater and I was surprised to find these pods with privacy enclosing two recliners. It was great seeing a movie where you don't have to see any other people other than who you came with. The movie was great and we were on our way to our next stop. Price wise it's not the cheapest option, but could be just what you're looking for if tired of everyone texting during movies at AMC or Edward's. A great option if you have a day off during the week and want to avoid crowds. read more

My daughter gave my wife and I an IPIC gift card for Christmas last year. We finally got the chance to go. Making a reservation for the movie was very easy on the website. When the greeter found out it was our 1st time there she escorted us to our seats, and showed us how to order food. The food was excellent. We had coconut shrimp, fried chicken and fajita quesadilla. I really like the reclining chair. The theater even provides a blanket in case you get cold. read more

Loved this place! The service and the food was great! The movie I saw was not the best movie but this theater made the experience great.

Extremely Disappointed with the Service and Food Quality My friends arrived around 6:50 PM. Shortly after, my wife and I placed our order at approximately 7:00 PM: 4 turkey slider with truffle fries and two fountain drinks. Within two minutes, our drinks were delivered--but that's where the service took a nosedive. After waiting 25 minutes, I noticed that other guests, who arrived after us, were receiving their food while we were still waiting. I flagged down an attendant to inquire about our order. He said he would check on it. Another 20 minutes passed, and still nothing. I called the attendant again, and it took him an additional 15 minutes just to return to our table. By the time someone finally showed up, they were bringing our food--which was cold. Absolutely unacceptable. Despite the food being cold, I ate it because I was genuinely hungry--a decision I quickly regretted. Within minutes, I began experiencing stomach discomfort. A word of advice: the kitchen staff and servers seriously need to understand the concept of urgency. It is beyond unreasonable for it to take nearly an hour to serve four sliders and a side of fries. What made the situation even worse was the complete lack of acknowledgment--not even an apology for the excessive wait or the cold food. This experience was incredibly disappointing. If you're considering visiting this movie theater, I strongly suggest eating beforehand. Otherwise, be prepared for an hour-long wait and subpar service. read more

Everything was perfect! The vibe and the staff were so friendly and welcomng Me and the girlfriend had drinks here and shared some wings that were absolutely delicious! Buffalo was the sauce and let me tell you for a movie theatre that serves wings!!!!!! Sheeeesh. I rate this place 11/10!!!!!!!! Amazing!!! Thank you to bartender Will and his co workers!!!! Once again a true cool vibe! read more

I am NOT a movie person. I generally dislike movie theatres since they seem sort of constrictive with the endless aisles and other patrons locking you into the aisles. Additionally, I can always count on rude people to talk or be on their phones to ruin my viewing experience. I'd rather go see my dentist honestly. LOL. Fast forward to IPIC, my bff wanted to see a movie and I told her I found IPIC because I want to avoid all of the standard movie theatre hassles. I purchased tickets for 2 and arrived 20 minutes early. I was greeted by the super helpful staff. I was allowed inside and they printed one ticket to keep at the front when my friend arrives. My friend arrived 20-30 minutes late (sigh), but she was still allowed into the theater since I was already inside. I enjoyed the pod seating and the less amount of people in the theatre. We weren't enough to other people to be affected by their phone-checking or slight talking, so that was awesome. We watched the underwhelming Nun 2 (it was this or Paw Patrol). Food was OK and the drinks were OK, but the service, ambiance, and the set-up was worth it. I will only watch movies at IPIC moving forward IF there is a movie that warrants my attention. read more

I had high hopes for this place. It's a beautiful venue with creative movie selections, and I'm happy to pay for a unique experience. ($25/ticket) We all deserve a night out where we can relax and enjoy a movie, right? Unfortunately, during the movie, there were young a pack of kids running up and down the aisles, in and out of the theater, over and over again. It was hard to focus, and I wasn't sure if their parents were even there. No one from the staff addressed it either, which left the theater feeling more like a babysitting station than a movie-going experience. This was the second time I've encountered this, so I don't think I'll be returning. I did mention it to the staff at the entrance, and while they acknowledged it, nothing was done to improve the situation. I went online to their website and there's no email or info to let their management team know, so maybe they'll see this? It's a shame, because this could be such a great spot if only they took steps to create an atmosphere that's enjoyable for everyone. read more

OMG I haven't been living. IPic is the supreme movie experience. I don't know how I will ever go anywhere else after coming here. Each seating area is like a little first class pod. On top of that, there are little blankets tucked away behind the seats should you need them. The only negative I would say is that you need to book movies well in advance if you want to see something opening weekend. I thought I was being early by booking a month out only to find out the 6pm showing was completely booked. Had to go for 10:30pm. Since there are less seats due to the pod set up, movies book out fast. We had eaten at a restaurant prior to the movie so I didn't get any food or drinks but if all looked good. There is also a full bar, pool table and lounge with lots of couches to sit before your theater opens. All around great experience and I am forever spoiled. Can never go back to AMC after this lol read more

Things have changed since Ive last been to the Ipic Theater. Actually I hadn't been out in two years and I was looking forward to good service, free popcorn, my blanket and my sweet potato fries but it wasn't so! No more free popcorn, a small is $4 and a large is $7, add a $1 for churro, or cheddar cheese topping. It was good though. I asked for two ice waters and he took forever to only bring me one. Both times he came to bring me stuff was during intense scenes so it made me jump! That was a little annoying. Don't get me wrong, he apologized and he was actually nice, but I've seen them wait. He did it again when he came to ask about last call and usually they bring the check before the movie ends and the movie had ended and the credits were rolling and no check. So because they electronically take your card, I thought they would only charge for food and tax, not give themselves a huge tip and I am not happy about it. I am giving a three because the food was good, but I ate from the kids menu for portion size and didn't order desserts or drinks, just water and so I was surprised to get home and see my bill was $5 less $100???? Nah, this was a mother's day gift and that's not cool. Now maybe it's just me but something is not adding up or rather down lol. Anyway, I will be calling in the morning but I guess I won't be back. See ya Ipic, it was nice while it lasted. Also, my booth was raggedy, one of the panels was missing. And it was hot in there at first, took a minute for the air to kick on til I didn't need the blanket, I needed a fan. Like I said, maybe it was just my experience. It was exciting in the beginning when we first had our date nights there but we seem to be in a recession, and maybe they should be happy to get the business - and do me right so I want to come back again. Until we meet again... read more

Best theater in LA area. Food and drinks are good. Friendly staff. Beautiful decor. Great, comfortable seats! But the parking is a bit of a hassle. Would recommend to a friend! read more

The place is amazing the parking garage isn't How can you guys not validate a parking pass that I park right by the movie theater if it has a green strip no where on your website does this say this, so I'm highly disappointed in that and would recommend no one use the parking right by the movie theaters cuz they won't vadalte your parking ticket please please for the love of god put this on your website And the parking garage I parked is literally right next to the movie theaters Made a great night into a bad night No where on your website does it say anything about parking and the person said if I brought it she would validate it but that was a lie she was like ooo no I can't do that one but you just told me you would validate my parking pass Ahh it has a green strip so why the hell is there a parking garage next to the movie theaters and you don't validate parking That's a big problem and issue and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one who has this experience And was disappointed Thanks for saying yes then saying no and making a great night into a bad night Date night ruined When you respond I did have my ticket and I did try to validate it but was told no I can't get it validate So how come you don't validate the parking garage that's right by your theater and I did look I did park at the right location still wasn't validated but. I supposed your saying I'm a liar So i definitely wouldn't recommend this spot they have a confusing parking structure They call you a liar read more

I had a great time watching the new Beetlejuice movie. The front desk & bartenders were great but the parking information was not clear and it was frustrating trying to figure out which parking structure they used because they did not provide an address, just the cross streets and there are multiple parking structures within that space. Even though the email states that parking is validated, I ended up paying for parking because I was not at the right structure and no one answered the phone when I called to confirm which structure it was. Without an actual Address of the parking structure how are we supposed to know where to park? That was kind of frustrating. But it was cool inside, not as cool as the photos make it look like. The fish ( and chips ) was dense, heavy with grease. But I liked the theater set up and the concept. read more

The service is great here and the ambiance is amazing. To add the drinks are delicious.

This is one of the best IPICs. The service is always wonderful. The food is always good. It's always very clean and they have free billiards. read more

An easy going and relaxing atmosphere, perfect finger licking food and a full bar, what more can anyone ask for. Just a wonderful place for an amazing movie experience, the staff will pamper you to high heaven, and you can order everything from your seat, the little " ninjas" will bring you what ever you're hearts desire. read more

Phenomenal experience overall. Recently visited Ipic for the first time with my partner. Her and I really enjoyed the experience. The staff was very personable and accommodated us with no attitude for being late. We ordered some delicious treats (truffle fries) and drinks once seated. They have very intimate recliner seats and they bring you blankets! We had so many negative experience at other theaters that have similar concepts as this but can't pull it off like ipic does! We will unequivocally be back to spend more money due to the excellent value and fun this theater experience delivers. They also have free parking with validation. 10/10. The immersion and service really brought it all together. read more

Went again last night and was thoroughly disappointed. I love the comfort and cleanliness but the timeliness of the service for the amount of money that we are paying is not right. After we ordered, our burger came before the water or any other drinks. We also ordered popcorn and twizzlers and after an hour into the movie we had to call and ask our server where they were. A bit disappointed because we enjoy the iPic experience. Paying $50 for tickets and $100 on food and drinks, the timeliness needs to be addressed. read more

From a movie experience perspective, 4.5 stars. From a food perspective, 2 stars. Total of 4 stars because hey, it's a movie theater and not a restaurant. Parking is available in One Colorado garage for $1 per 20 min, with a daily max of $8. IPIC supposedly validates for 3 hours, but when we paid, it was still $8. I don't know. Love that you can hang out in the lounge and play pool before and after the movie. The private booth is super nice, as are the reclining chairs and blanket. Wish you could pull the food tray farther back so you can eat while reclined. Loaded Fajita Steak Fries- 2 stars. Overall pretty bland and the steak was extremely well done (as in overcooked) and tough. The fries themselves were okay. In the future I'd just order fries with nothing else. Hot Pepper Calamari Fritti- 1 star. The most overcooked/overfried and tough calamari I have ever eaten. Not really a fan of the gochujang, and I'm Asian. The flavors just didn't go together well. We asked for some tartar sauce instead. The photo looks like big portions, but the calamari was sitting on a bed of shredded lettuce. I'd come back for the movies, but probably won't be ordering food again. read more

I have gone to this theater on several occasions. This past time I went to see the Nun II. Which is a great movie. I think the biggest problem I have with this theater is the bathrooms. I went with a group of 4 including myself; I needed to use the bathroom and it was absolutely filthy. Half the stalls had no toilet paper or seat covers, the other half had bodily matter that should've need flushed down the toilet on the seats themselves. Granted it was towards the end of the night so I am sure that employees had side work to do, but it was off putting knowing that someone did not occasionally look at the bathroom to check if people actually flushed. The smell in there was terrible as well. Which is why I gave it a 4/5 stars. The Bar, Pool table and movie theater itself AMAZING. It's hidden from the road so it can be difficult to find if you are not from the area. The theater has pods for seatings perfect for intimate dine in date night. I find that each pod was spacious and comfortable. Ticket prices are cheaper than AMC theater pricing at $23 per person with the processing fee. The food itself is delicious so there is literally nothing to complain about. Popcorn in nice and salty, the large size popcorn is more than enough for two people. Mozzarella sticks are shaped like half moons, but are cheesy gooey nonetheless paired with fresh pizza sauce. You are offered blankets while watching the movie in case you get cold. The theater is extremely clean and food is delivered to your seat. Servers are very knowledgeable about the menu and over the top friendly. Will never go back to AMC or Regal as the small theaters are great, spacious and intimate. You can hardly hear if someone is having a conversation in the other pod next to you which means no disruptions for movie goers if you hate people talking. I am not sure if there is an age restriction because this seems more like an adult theater because the theater never plays G or PG movies (Except for Barbie). But I would double check on that. read more

Had a great experience with my daughter on our date. We order some breakfast, snacks and drinks. Really enjoyed it.

Really nice movie theater and the service was great, we ordered popcorn, 2 Shirley temples, crispy mozzarella sticks, boss burger and street tacos with mahi-mahi fish. The Boss burger was a 7/10 my husband said it was ok Crispy mozzarella sticks 10/10 it was really good Street tacos.... It wasn't good to me 5/10 because it's made with flour tortillas not corn and their guacamole isn't freshly made it's more like a paste from a grocery store. Last but not least I changed my order from the street tacos to the steak quesadilla I took it home because the movie was ending, it was good 8/10, our waiter Lorin did a excellent job. Everyone here was so friendly and helpful read more

Every bad review you read about this place is dead wrong. It all starts with the very clear communication that comes early and often. Finding the parking lot was super easy. I received at least 4 notices on where to park. I had zero problems with my credit card. once again it was communicated early and often this was cashless and a $75 hold would be placed on your credit card if you opened a tab. We did not open a tab and paid for all our food, bottle of wine and drinks without any issues. The food was good and The Color Purple was the best musical film I've seen. I will be back. read more

First, let me say that we have been here a dozen times over the last couple of years and love every experience. I feel like we're in a New York bar enjoying a great time with friends. But tonight surpassed every experience I've ever had there. We had an issue with a bonus card that couldn't work online and Veronica and her manager were able to work it out And called me back personally to make sure that everything was taken care of. I can't thank them enough. And I can't say enough about how much I enjoy this facility and the terrific staff that works there. They are great! read more

My husband and I went here last Friday to see Oppenheimer. This was our first experience at a dine in movie theater. We were not disappointed. And I'm pretty sure we'll only go here from now on. Definitely worth the drive from Valencia. Upon arrival, you are greeted and helped by two very friendly people. As you go down the escalator, even more friendly employees to help you look for your theatre. Once you enter your theatre, you are greeted by your server. I wish I could remember our's name. But we absolutely loved him. He was so helpful and had great customer service. We really enjoyed the food. Burger, quesadilla, and pretzels - all great! We loved how comfortable the seats were. Overall, our experience was great. I'm not a huge movie goer. But I'd definitely come back here knowing how comfortable it would be to sit through a 2-3 hour movie. read more
