    I miss this place! Finally get a chance to see a a show again. It's wonderful to see that Pocket Sandwich Theatre is thriving in Carrollton at their new location and is receiving high recommendations. The consistent quality of their shows speaks volumes about their commitment to entertainment. It a spot worth checking out for a memorable experience! Service is always efficient. You can actually have a meal here before a show if you don't want to wait in any of the surrounding restaurants. Just arrive early enough. Food service ends 30 minutes prior to the start of the show. They also have a decent list of libations for a comparable price. Come out to Carrolton and check out a show here with the family (depends on the show) or with a with date. It will surely won't disappoint.

    We had a lot of fun here! It is definitely a fun way to spend an afternoon if you are relaxed and want to have fun. The food was decent enough. The desserts were yummy! The play was fun and goofy. We saw the four weddings and an Elvis and were entertained by the play and the actors. There were a coupon of questionable lines though about "transvestites" and about gay people that probably should be updated next time it is performed. Our waiter Gage was fabulous. He was the hardest working person there!

    I had no expectations going into see the play "I Hate Hamlet". We bought 8 tickets and I took my family and in-laws there to have a little family night. IT WAS FANTASTIC!! the ambience feels great, the waiters are funny & sweet, & the actors are awesome too! The show was captivating but it also had some comedy to it that kept everyone laughing. The lighting, sound effects, and props were great too. I honestly was blown away at it all for being a smaller venue, it truly didn't feel that way! We will be coming back to see another play as a whole family again!! My entire family from ages 16-60s had a wonderful night & everyone left raving about the place.

I called them to get some information about when a movie would be shown and the gentleman that helped me gave me more information than I asked for and but it was helpful and needed. Then we went to the theater and we were greeted with a huge smile. Then before the movie started we ordered and the server throughout the movie was the best server. She took care of our needs and even more. Then there was a problem with the billing and I was overcharged accidentally. It happens. How you judge the situation is how was handled. It was handled immediately with grace and respect and I could not have been more pleased. This will be the only theater I ever go to.

First time since they went to scanning QR code for food and drink vs ordering in person or on the sheet of paper. QR code was not easy for us or the other couple we were with. We ordered first and got our drinks last and two separate times . No notification, unless in very small print, that automatic 18% and if you don't close out your tab (not easy) you'll be charged an addition 5%. We sat on the second to back row as we know from the past, the back row does not recline. Our 5 seats in a row did not recline. After the show we talked to the person at the desk and he showed no sympathy or concern for our experience. We asked how we could know what seats in the future do not recline and he said he didn't know . Because there was no concern about our experience, not sure if we will come back again. In addition their bar/ tap room never seems open. When they are the bartenders are fine but just hours not predictable. When a struggling business doesn't care about the customer, why give them return business.

    Cinemark Dallas XD and IMAX is a movie theater in Dallas with an assortment of theater types from…read moreIMAX Digital, XD (with DBox Seating), and 2D Digital screens with recliners. My review focuses on the different types of seating and the greatness of online ordering. My Overall Rating - 4 Stars (Atmosphere, Service, Theater, Return) Atmosphere - Upon entering, you'll find a huge concession stand in the middle complete with movie candy and snacks to entice you as you make your way to order popcorn. There's an arcade on the right, and another concession stand for ordering more food along with tons of seating. If you order ahead, you can pick up your concessions here (see below for more details). 1 Star. Service - I'm going to focus on the Cinemark app. Who needs Moviefone when I can use the app for everything? I can select a theater, choose a movie, choose my seat, and even order concessions. Seriously, kudos to the Cinemark team, I show up at movie time, pick up my popcorn and concession that I ordered online, and head to my movie. No stress/wait, just time saved. 1 Star. Theater - Not all screens are the same. Here's a breakdown of what to expect: 1. IMAX - It's IMAX Digital - not a full-blown IMAX experience, but still good. The IMAX screen is dedicated to one side. It has its own concession stand, but it's never open. Finally, these are regular seats - no recliners. 2. XD - This is Cinemark's best experience. Huge floor to wall screen with reclining seats. There are also a few DBox seats which are more immersive (and expensive). There are two XD screens at this location. 3. 2D Digital - This is Cinemark's standard screen. They have multiple screens that vary in size, and they all have reclining seats. If you're not sure what experience your movie is showing on, check the website or app. Most blockbuster movies will be shown in IMAX and XD opening weekend, then will move to the smaller 2D Digital screens. Expect to pay about $50 for 2 people and concessions. 1 Star. Will I Return? - Yes. I really like the convenience of selecting a movie and buying it online along with my concessions. I'm also a Movie Club member (check Cinemark for details as pricing varies by location) and buying/refunding tickets and concessions are super easy. 1 Star.

We recently visited to watch the Odyssey and since it's a three hour film, we figured it be good to go somewhere with food. The ordering process was very different.

We ended up just sticking to refillable popcorn and sodas which was fine for a matinee. Oh and the Odyssey? RUNNN to watch it in theaters!! Looking forward to seeing it (again) on 70mm if we can!

The picture showed there was arugula. The description said there was arugula. There was none. I wanted some. Also, no shishito peppers. The online menu (not the qr code) said they had them. they also switched to mobile ordering. I don't mind the mobile ordering but service has kind of gone down. It's still a good place to watch movies but I do worry this place may be out of business given how let down it's gotten. It's really a good theatre that's close to me.

The price points for the service and experience are aligned with the expectation; however, the restroom situation was atrocious. The smell, the oil/ grime made for a slippery walk, and the toilets themselves most were not clean. Upon exiting the restroom there were three others talking about the same restroom experience. This level of service and expectation should extend beyond the theatre itself.

Unfortunately, this event was the complete opposite. I booked a private premiere screening of The Devil Wears Prada, and the Event Sales Manager made multiple promises that the theater ultimately could not deliver. We were told we'd have early access for setup, access to Studio 1 with space for a private cocktail hour, and several other accommodations that simply did not happen. The day of the event, my team and I were left scrambling trying to adjust in real time while hosting guests. To make matters worse, every single filet mignon steak served was overcooked. For a premium theater experience with premium pricing, that's unacceptable. But the most alarming part came after the event. I left with a confirmed zero balance. Then, TWO DAYS LATER, I was hit with an unexpected charge of nearly $2,000 on my Amex. When I questioned it, I was told the Event Sales Manager's "last day was tomorrow" and that I should direct any questions to a local representative. No accountability. No transparency. Just chaos. This was supposed to be a polished, memorable premiere experience. Instead, it was stressful, disorganized, and financially questionable. Never again.

I felt it was spacious, organized and had style. I really loved the opening visuals that came prior to the show beginning. The wait staff were nice, they do received about an 18% tip that's already included in your tab. There is a two item requirement to purchase a drink or food per person. In the end, they had it organized to where you could take pics with the headliner and go. While waiting outside, Usama was just walking around and I captured my video with him.

Two item minimum purchase per person, so don't show up broke. I ordered nachos and a margarita. Both were actually good and not too badly priced at all, so I can appreciate that. The service we received was good and our waiter was very attentive and fast. Cant wait to see more comedians though and will try some other food items as well.
