    Tokyo penthouse
    Katie D.

    I went to Studio One Theaters to see Project Hail Mary with my friends! We booked two recliners seats and a two seater couch. The Tokyo penthouse was such a vibe and a unique experience. I ordered the project Hail Mary drink special (orange creamsicle drink with aperol spritz) and it was delicious. I also ordered the cookies with ice cream. My friends ordered full dinner service and enjoyed their meal. This is such a nice theater that really nails the movie going experience. Highly recommend!

    I cannot - not - recommend this theater enough. We ordered tickets online, but the photos and diagram were extremely confusing. It appeared we would be getting a round loveseat-style seat. What we actually got was a very small loveseat. The seats themselves were about the same size, if not smaller, than what you'd get at a regular theater. However, because this is marketed as a more upscale dine-in experience, there was absolutely no room for food. You're essentially balancing a pizza or steak on your lap while eating, so I chose just popcorn and a watered down soda. In addition to the unclear website, the servers seemed irritated when we tried to leave a tip and gave the impression they wanted to get away from us as soon as possible. We also were never checked on to see if we needed anything else. Throughout the movie, people were frequently walking in front of the screen. I expected a more premium experience than Century 21, but it actually turned out to be worse. Ultimately, I would not recommend this theater unless you know exactly what you're getting into because the website does not make that clear.

    Updating my review. The couches were cleaned and The Wicked movie experience was amazing! I loved how they added pink and green tinted filters to represent Glinda and Elphaba.

    We love the concept of this place so we've returned several times over the years- but it somehow continues to get worse instead of better. Their setup leaves you waiting for awhile in a cramped area until a staff takes you back to a theatre, and service during the movie is always spotty- one of our items was forgotten last night, as were items for groups around us we saw. The biggest issue is the food is genuinely bad and cocktails are very hit or miss- I've tried multiple things and not loved any of it, so I usually skip food here, but kiddo wanted something last night so I tried to play it safe with popcorn, a snack and a dessert- the fondue was lumpy and tasted odd, and the bread also wasn't great with it- we tried to eat it but gave up halfway through. The chocolate chip cookies tasted of nothing but cinnamon for some reason. The popcorn arrived over an hour into the movie. This spot has just always had a lot of kinks to work out but never successfully has unfortunately.

    Believe the other reviews about the food, we ordered the "special" crab mac and cheese, turns out it costs FORTY EIGHT dollars. Looked nothing like the photo they showed us of the specials before hand. Drinks and popcorn were good, generally a super fun way to watch movies and I'd go back, but eat beforehand

    It was my first time at a place like this. It was a super cool experience. The quality of the movie graphics was good, like any normal big screen cinema. The ticket was average price of other theaters but the food is what can make the visit expensive. There was a lot on the menu & it was daunting so I only got a soda, popcorn, & the strawberry crème brûlée. The soda came in a glass cup with no refills, quite expensive for a little amount since there was a lot of ice. The popcorn was not good, it's "gourmet" popcorn. The strawberry crème brûlée was okay, I'd rather prefer regular crème brûlée. Service was good, they waited for a majority of people to show up then escorted us to our theatre room then showed us our seats. Then took our food orders while waiting for the movie to start. Overall, it was a cool experience but the food seemed mid. I saw some of the bigger entrees like burgers & such & it looked unimpressive for the price. I'd recommend coming & just ordering side bites like fries & such. But the movie experience itself was really cool! I will be back but probably not for the food.

    Dolby Atmos speaker system

    Tldr ; I enjoyed the experience here overall, and will come back. Their Atmos system is worth the extra ticket price, but drinks/food are a bit much. Their Dolby Atmos system in the New York room is really great. I saw The Bone Temple, which isn't the flashiest demo of the technology, but I was still pretty impressed. I didn't even bother counting the speakers because there are so many. Almost a bit overkill for the room, but they are all small and accurate creating a very detailed image. The speakers visibly line the edges of the ceiling and cross overhead towards the screen. I'm sure there are more speakers I didn't spot as there is nice sub rumble through the floor too. Whoever put this setup together, I would love to have a conversation with you! I will say for constructive criticism, when I say the audio was "almost overkill", I mean it was too loud **for me** (I brought earplugs as I do for all movies and used them occasionally). Just my 2 cents, but I think it could have been down a bit lower considering the overwhelmingly immersive soundstage -- the 3D audio is so delectable, that to me volume becomes less important. Of course movies have a lot of dynamic range, and the theater seats 60 something, so it's a balancing act to create a good sweet spot and experience for everyone. I sat almost in the middle and recommend it. I often find myself complaining about sound being too loud in Portland area theaters, so take my words with a bit of a grain of salt. this room was really far from the worst offender in this way, but I had to say it since everything else sound and projection-wise was perfect. If you are really into film sound, this is a fantastic spot to experience it in Portland if you catch their Atmos setup. I will be back to hear more Captioning equipment was alright, but definitely left something to be desired. They brought caption equipment directly to my seat mid movie (nice!), but it was cupholder style equipment and there wasn't really a cupholder. I had to hold it between my legs / prop it against chairs, which worked fine I guess, but it left the captions lower than my line of sight consistently and was uncomfortable. Service was good. It's a bit too expensive especially for drinks - its hard to stomach AMC/Regal price drinks when there are so many great theaters in Portland with cheap drinks and good service (none of them have a surround setup this good though!). I agree with the other person that the push on the menu at the beginning was a bit awkward. But overall I liked the experience and the people working there were on top of it this Friday night.

    Great place to go see a movie, have a bite to eat, and maybe even sing. I like the themed rooms and the Paris room is my favorite one!

    Ask the Community - Studio One Theaters

    Where to park?

    In the parking lot.

    How much are tickets?

    All of the info is on their website. Prices can vary based on day/showtimes.

    How to reserve seats online using Groupon?

    You can either call them or go in to reserve the groupon seats.

    Is outside food allowed?

    No, it isn't.

    Which is the most comfortable seating?

    Which...what? Theater? Each is laid out slightly differently. Grab a couch or recliner for the best comfort; usually anywhere but the first row (too close) or the back corners, but honestly, all the seats are comfy. That's kinda the point.

    Can I bring my kid?

    Before 6pm anyone is allowed. After 6pm, you must be 21 per the “About” page of their website, “No person under the age of 21 permitted after 6:00pm.”

    Do they ever answer the phone? I've been trying to call and they don't answer or even call back.

    Same issue. I called, emailed, and sent a message on Facebook. Finally got to someone after calling 4 days in a row. I have a business and I get how overwhelming communications can be. But 4 days is really absurd for a place like this not to return… 

    How far ahead can we see and purchase movie tickets? I entered the date and chose evening showings but nothing came up

    Weeks, if you know what movie you want to see or what movie is coming soon. Having said that, If it's a large party, I would book asap.

    How early can you come for food (in the theatre not the restaurant)?

    I think that they've let us in 1/2hr before the movie started so that we could get settled in and order food. They were pretty flexible from my experience the waitress let us order from the lunch menu instead of the brunch one before lunchtime.

    Do you need to purchase tickets in advance, or can you purchase at the door?

    You can purchase tickets at the counter, but depending on the movie, and due to the relatively limited number of seats available per showroom, they often sell out. Better not to wait until you're there, or you might be disappointed.

    How much is it?

    $13.50 for the ticket food and wine are affordable at various prices

    Is there parking for customers?

    Yes. There is a full parking lots shared for all businesses in the plaza.

Stoned or just unclear about his customer-facing job description? Who knows. Anyhoo, Decent menu, with burgers, salads, sandos and pizzas (small). You have to order away from the bar, weirdly, then pick up and bring your food into the theatre. Unwieldy. It's a bit spendy for what you get food-wise, though that seems to be the case everywhere these days. I like this place but haven't been in years so am happy to reconnect. Comfy seating in the theatre but screens are a bit dated. I will say the sound was pretty good. A decent movie-going experience with good enough food and drinks. Parking can be a bitch in this neighborhood though, with the new rules.

The bartender who took our order didn't write it down as he was taking it, which always makes me wonder if they will remember it correctly. He didn't. Carelessness. The bartender asked us which auditorium and our seat number and we were told that it would be delivered to our seats. Still no food an hour and 15 minutes into the movie so my partner went to check on it. He was told that they couldn't find us, which makes no sense unless the bartender entered the seats wrong. The cost was refunded but no dinner for us. Other than that the auditorium and seats are pretty nice but not better than any other theater. I doubt that I'll go back.

    I was recently invited to attend a live music performance at the Mission Theater…read more McMenamins is of course known for converting historic buildings into venues and restaurants, and this location is no different. It used to be the Swedish Evangelical Mission Covenant Church. There's some cool millwork, antique light fixtures, and large curved staircases, but overall this is on the tamer side for McMenamins properties. The venue had standing room and high-tops on the same level as the stage. Upstairs is theater style seating that was decently comfortable and had a counter spot to put your drink. There weren't any bad views, and the sound system was better than I expected. I think there are two bars, one on each floor, but the upstairs one was closed for the small event I attended. They serve drinks and small bites, not full meals. Parking is challenging nearby.

The doors opened up and hour before and we were able to get a seat in the balcony on the first row. The venue was small so every seat was great.

Pizza, hotdogs, popcorn was the food offering and beer, cider and wine you can eat in your seats with the tables. Got the Mission Theatre stamp for our passport.

Just east of the river, in the middle of a residential part of Portland lies this little theater. Something I was not expecting to see when I was invited to watch a friend's movie that he filmed. Let me share some information on what to expect before coming here: * Parking * Once you spot the place and drive past it, you won't find a garage anywhere. Street parking only. So be cognizant of street parking signs as well. * The Theater * A classic type of theater reminiscent of days passed with a marquee above the entrance. Upon entering, there isn't much of a lobby, but a concession stand selling everything from candy, popcorn, and drinks. They even sell beer and wine, and local canned ciders. I also heard, they're cool with you bringing in food from outside. Just not alcohol, which is understandable. Although the lobby is narrow, i still loved looking up at the movie poster decor that lined the walls. There's only one movie screen as far as I know of, so don't expect a huge building with 20 screens. I mean it is an old building with old wooden doors, brass doorknobs, heavy curtains, and tiny restrooms with exposed pipes. Inside there is a small stage in front of the main screen, available for performers and events. Yes, you can even rent out the venue as well to hold an event. As for seating, the chairs are pretty wide and fairly comfortable. There may have been only about 200 seats, so expect the closeness of audience interactions and the quiet whispers to be heard loud and clear. In short, this old school theater is definitely a historical icon of Portland, with its marquee board changed by hand and little box office up front selling tickets. Come here for homemade movies, B rated films, as well as weird random classics. Just check their website for what's showing. I enjoyed my friend's event and I wouldn't mind seeing another crazy movie here like The Toxic Avenger!
