    My date and prefer this location because it's low key and nothing fancy. It's run mostly by…read moreteenagers and twenty something's. The location was new several years ago and the seats have some wear and tear but nothing to write home about. Sometimes they forget to turn the lights off when the movie starts, if that happens, just run and let someone know and they fix it right away. It's a non issue. The staff are friendly but they sometimes are vigilant about not bringing outside food and will check a backpack or bag/ purse. Popcorn soda machines candy variety Appetizer Menu

    1 star. Customer…read moreservice is awful, especially from the front staff member with glasses who checks tickets. Every time I come here, she searches my bag and my family's bags, even though we've never tried to sneak anything in. My Mom doesn't like to come here anymore because whenever we watch a movie as a family, we always get stopped to be searched, it feels hostile. What makes it worse is that white customers who come in after us don't get searched at all. I've even seen white patrons walk in with full backpacks--no check-- when they stay in the row behind us we saw them takeout Chipotle. Meanwhile, I'm being stopped over a small handbag that barely fits lip gloss. It feels targeted and discriminatory. Everyone else on staff is nice, but she completely ruins the experience. The lighting inside the theater is also terrible. Seat numbers are hard to see, which caused a seating mix-up during Lilo & Stitch. Because of that, a grown adult started yelling at us over an honest mistake that wouldn't have happened if the theater wasn't so dark. Moreover, if I'm paying $30+ I want the seat I sit in not to be peeling onto my clothes, or to step on something sticky on the way to the seat. Lastly, the hot sauce at concessions seems expired or very old. The smell was so bad my boyfriend threw away his popcorn.

    This place is pretty quiet during day. And who am I kidding, I loved that. But they should have…read moreinfo/signage about how to check in at kiosks. I haven't been to the theaters in years and we went to take my daughter to Toy Story 5-great film, go see it- and we pre purchased our tickets, and I didn't know what to do when we got there. No ticket taker, but there was a lady on the phone at customer service, so we stopped and waited. She was giving lots of info on the phone but hardly acknowledged us. Finally she said "I'll be right with you." Then when she was off and I told her we just need to scan the code, she was like, "ohh!! Of course!!" Then said that we could have used the kiosks way on the other side behind the ticket purchase are. There's just no clear path for check in options and if they are going to pay someone to stand there, put up a sign please! The concession stand was stocked and no line. $38 for a large popcorn and 2 large sodas. Damn. But that's life right? Popcorn was fresh, free extra plates and cups, free butter and jalapeños. And soda was the large pick your flavor Coke machines. Our day tickets were $10, plus a $2 fee per ticket. *rolls eyes* but could I have purchased them at the theater without a convenience fee, I'm still not sure. They have lots of bathrooms. Staff is willing to help you find your seats and move others if they are not abiding to the seat rules (you pay for a seat and sit where you paid), when you can find staff. The seats are weird and were a bit hard for my 3 year old to sit in. But the cup holders in between go up, so I was able to put that up and hold my leg against her chair to keep it from folding up on her. I'm griping more about how much theaters have changed than Maya itself. All the staff we interacted with were nice enough and the place was clean, restrooms stocked. Bonus it's close to home. We will be back for Moana 2. :)

We checked online and saw that there were many seats available, so we decided to buy our tickets at the theater. Love that there is a senior discount and even a senior discount day. Bought tickets for all and headed to get popcorn and a drink. We always get a large popcorn and drink combo and complimentary containers for the kiddos to put popcorn in, they don't eat much. You get one free popcorn refill with the price. That works just fine. Cup holders available and comfortable seating. We enjoy coming here to watch movies and then going to Mad Duck after to eat.

    Haven't been to the movies in a while. A mommy friend and I along with our kids (4 kids ages 2-6)…read morewent yesterday to watch Toy Story 5. My friend had purchased tickets ahead of time. Our showing was at 4:45pm we arrived about 15mins before just incase there was a long line at the concession. When we entered we went straight to the self serve kiosk, although someone was the front he was helping others. They do have a full bar. The line went fairly quick. Our order: 4 kids box: popcorn, drinks and a snack, small popcorn with 2 waters. It was the day before Toy Story 5 premiere and was a bit disappointed to not see a lot of the souvenirs displayed. Even the kids popcorn box wasn't Toy Story themed. Not sure if they sold out already or they were saving it for Friday. The popcorn was fresh and delicious, they also add butter to the top as requested. The seats here are reclined and so comfortable, the temp was just right, not hot or freezing cold. We went to the standard showing. The restrooms clean, I was so happy and surprised to see sanitary barrier cloths on the diaper changing tables. Overall, it was a great experience!

The seats were really comfy with a little table... they reclined all the way back... the sound system was great... It was just a great visit overall. It's a little far from my home but it was worth the drive. I will be back!
