AMC Dine-in Theatres Marina 6

This theater is completely stupid. They only allow 18 and over simply because they serve alcohol in the building… They should check out the Cinemark down the street which allows all ages and has a better vibe… and allows anyone in to the dining movie experience.

Came here in 2015 for my birthday weekend. I was able to sit down in the theater, get comfy, order food, and no drink because I had left my identification at home. Yes, they are totally strict about proving your adult age.
I didn’t get to see a movie because the fire alarm went off they emptied the theater, had us stand outside as if they were going to fix the alarm and let us back in, but it did not happen. So they gave us free passes to return. Okay cool, so yes it took me a year to come back as I don’t see movies often.
The movie we picked started a little late so we just find our way to the bar. Sat down and had really yummy drinks. We sat down and ordered our food. I held my breath.
my first experience was horrible… so I was hoping it would not be a repeat. The server came to take our order, and YES the movie started, and the food started to come in
so needless to say the second time. what a neat experience. There are only 6 theaters, okay can’t do much about the size, but the choice of movies had me in a pinch as to what I wanted to see. Nothing really JUMPED out like ohhhh THIS IS THE MOVIE we want to see. So basically go when there is a movie you want to see. however, that may pose a problem too.
Tried to watch Straight Outta Compton, yet… it was ALWAYS sold out. I was there around 1 am on a wednesday and they told me the movie was sold out until NEXT Tuesday. Are you kidding me. Wowser, well, I tried.
I do remember some tacos tht sounded amazing being on the menu the first time… but I didn’t get to try them cause of the fire alrm. So I suppose I’m not missing out on this great menu people speak of in their reviews. But I will say the gumbo mac, chicken tenders and the burger were awesome. Oh and the drinks were craze amaze too.
So yes, I will totally return. Just don’t eat or drink too much because those reclining chairs are neat and you might fall into a food coma, and then have to go to an 8 dollar movie theater to re-​watch the movie or wait for it to come to Cable or DVD.

Seriously! This is the way to see a movie. Comfy seats. Food brought to you on a tray. They had vegan choices, limited but wasn’t bad at all-​veggie sticks with humus. Cute beckoning waiters. Even stupid bad movies could be tolerated with this kind of luxury. Only thing, gotta dig deeeeep in the pocket for the hard earned dough.

$ 20 for a ticket?
we walked in, saw the price, and walked straight out
especially considering the AMC across the street was $ 10

Be prepared to be spoiled for anything other than the dine-​in theatre. The seats are SOOO comfortable and almost fully recline with your feet up. Now you don’t have to be that clueless, rude moviegoer that uses your seat’s backrest as a footrest. The menu is really good, I wouldn’t say it’s outstanding but it is good. I’ve had the braised beef tips (very tender,) the popcorn tub (comes with tubs of butter topping and a bowl if you ask for one,) the Teriyaki salad and any number of cocktails. All available at a push of the button.
So why four stars? The salt and pepper shakers found at every seat station are grungy. They feel sticky and the salt and pepper are usually lumps from the moisture accumulation. Ew.
There is a large comfortable seating lounge and full bar so no one under 21 is allowed. I love this, not because I’m a child-​hater, but because kids are usually not fun to be around if you’re not a parent or used to being around children. I’m not. There are a huge number of theatres that cater to families so allow me to enjoy an adult atmosphere and not label me a monster for it.
The lounge helps wile the time away whilst awaiting the arrival of late friends. The staff is so nice, all in all you’ve got to try this.
I wish there were more dine-​in theatres in my local vicinity. It would give more movie choices than the one. Hey AMC, Regal, Cinemark, Edwards… are you listening?

I’m definitely a fan of the AMC over the Cinemark in PDR. For some reason, this AMC just seems much more comfortable and has a friendlier vibe. Also, they don’t have such rigid rules for ordering a bottle of wine at your cine-​table. The seating is much more spacious and doesn’t feel like you are sitting with other people at a movie theater. My only issue with this AMC is that they often don’t have a movie I want to see playing and their options are sometimes limited. Otherwise, this is my first choice movie theater in the Marina area.

I think I’m in love with this theater situation!!! Reclining leather chairs, seat-​side service, drinks, full bar, good food, free parking!!! Da bomb!
They have a soda machine with tons of options, add ins, flavors… Joy Joy.
The lettuce wedge appetizer was yummy. I also enjoyed the Brussel sprouts and California chicken sandwich on lettuce (no bun).
My companion had the chicken Caesar salad that didn’t disappoint.
But let’s be real, this is all about the experience… Recliners, service to your chair, room to snuggle and great screens and sound! Woot woot! I’m in love!

I recently returned to this theater to see the new X-​Men movie. We arrived to early so that we could order our meal before the movie started. We were told that the theater was not ready yet, so we had to wait few minutes while they finished «cleaning» it.
When we got to our seats, they were a mess. They were still littered with popcorn, the cup holders were wet, the seats and arm rests had greasy hand prints everywhere. I had to flag down a manager to get someone to wipe down the seats. He apologized and had a server get a wet towel to wipe down our seats… so now the seats were not greasy, they were wet. I had to use the cloth napkin on my tray table to dry off the seats & arm rests myself. NOT A GOOD FIRST IMPRESSION FOR A «LUXURY» MOVIE THEATER.
When the waitress finally came to take our order, she warned us that many of the theaters were sold out, and meal service was taking 30 – 40 minutes. (So much for arriving early).
At least this theater has made some improvements since the last time I was here. First, they have a new mobile POS system that allows the server to swipe your Stubs card & credit card when they take your order. That way, they can drop off a paid-​check at the end of the movie and you don’t have to deal with finding your credit card & paying your bill in a dark theater at the climax of the movie.
Second, they’ve made changes to their menu (finally!!) and offer some healthier options. For example, I had the chicken & Quinoa bowl which was a good sized portion, and tasted very good.

Loved this spot!
I work down the street, so a co-​worker and I headed over there to catch an after work movie). Loved the reclining seats, vibe, and comfort.
Only thing that sucked is the pricing. Our tickets were $ 24 (XMen in 3D — the only option they had available for the time) and food & drinks were pretty pricey too. Luckily we got happy hours drinks at Yardhouse that’s in the same shopping center. :)
Overall, an enjoyable experience

I’m glad I waited to write this review. When I first went, I was blown away. the recliner seats, the in-​seat service, and the adult environment was definitely something that I absolutely love. However, I found myself not going there for the longest time for a few reasons, one of which seems to have been fixed, but only very recently. And that reason is they had the worst movie selection. They never showed the force awakens, but had Ride Along 2 playing on two screens. They must have had a ton of complaints about their awful selection, because it seems to have been fixed. I noticed that the Captain America movie and the X-​Men movie is currently playing there, well done.
My other issue is, it is extremely overpriced. $ 21 for a movie. There was another AMC that I go to that also has the very comfortable recliner seats, $ 12.
And after reading all the reviews about this theater, another issue I have is one that has been talked about heavily already: the food. It’s absolutely awful. I see other reviewers on there talking about how the food seems to be knock off microwave food, and I couldn’t agree more.
So as the recliner seat theater thing starts to be getting more popular, and the other theaters not quite charging the arm and a leg that display stands, I do find myself going to those theaters now.

The right call here is to have a drink & popcorn and skip the «dinner» — and enjoy the seats.
Good concept, but execution still needs a lot more work.
The food was no better then bad bar food– frozen, microwaved and served up soggy. The prices were insulting even by movie theatre standards. If they focused on quality and perhaps less choices it might be better. Server came during trailers — also might make more sense to have more order takers earlier?
During the film we could continually hear the staff outside the door talking and laughing.
The one great thing are the seats! They get 4 stars!!! Comfortable and luxurious — make sure whatever movie you see is well paced or you will take a nap!
Virtually inaccessible if you are handicapped or have mobility problems — it seemed like around 150 yards from elevator or a pretty tough flight of stairs. Although I am not handicapped we took a family member to see a film here and was appalled at how difficult it was for her. But to make it worse was how the staff did nothing to assist us, even to the point of rude.
Thus the 2 stars.

I love watching movies and I do love food too. Put the two together and I’m content. Add adult beverages and I’m a happy camper.
I’m spoiled and I don’t care for general admission ticketing when it comes to movies. I love the ability to choose my seat (s) and I’m glad more theaters are going with this option.
Food and beverage service is nice too if you don’t mind the prices but matinée pricing, combined with my laziness doesn’t allow the small portions and high prices bother me all that much.
This theater is also well kept and offers lots of parking — at least for the times I’ve come to watch a show and I’ve not had to deal with obnoxious kids.
Service has been great each time — attentive, friendly and polite. No complaints there. I appreciate how they do their best not to be a distraction — today, using sign language to communicate with me.
Like I said earlier, I love watching movies and I’m a fan of this theater.

My husband and I were visiting LA from Las Vegas. We did a basic Google search for «reclining seat theater» and came across this theater. I honestly cannot believe we don’t have a theater like this in Vegas!
We ordered a burger (upgraded to the bison meat — $ 2 upgrade) and the big bite sampler. The food was sooooo good! The burger was better then the burger I had gotten from the room service at my hotel I was staying at! The big bite sampler was also very good. I ate most the the cheesy tater tot’s and my husband ate everything else.
Our waitress (Taylor, I believe her name was) was great! Took a little bit for her to come take our order after sitting down but she did a great job. Very nice!
I will definitely come back to this theater when I’m visiting this area again!

I love this place!!! The seats are straight up lazy boy recliners that are soooo comfortable. They have a full bar with the most amazing mango smoothies (add any alcohol and it’s delicious). If the movie your watching doesn’t turn out to be good, then the chairs are comfortable enough to nap, and let me tell you, those naps are pretty legit in those seats.
The food menu is pretty large and their deserts are pretty good.
Cons: The service can be slow at times and if you order when the movie starts or its dark they have a propensity to get your order wrong or they can be annoying and deliver the food at crucial moments in the film. This place can also get a bit pricey.
Pros definitely outweigh the cons, I have been to several other dine in theaters but this one is definitely the most comfortable and has the best menu. Great for date night!

We’ve been coming to this theater for awhile and liked the experience. However, the change in the menu is very disappointing. You’re basically reduced burgers, wings, some version of tacos, fish and chips. In the past you could order desserts like apple crisp and hot fudge brownie cake, now all they serve for dessert are milkshakes!
Please go back to the larger menu. Especially since there’s a new theater nearby with the dine in option

I may love this theater for the recliner and the service but when it comes to their current food selections and how it taste makes me not think about the comfortable chair. I really do hope they improve their menu. There were multiple incidents when their chips were old and the dip is sour. The fries tasted old.

Terrible service, rude, judgmental and impolite waiter. For this service the hefty U$ 20 for a recliner, rude waiter (Robert) and expensive food I’d rather watch movies on a conventional movie theater.
This waiter took about 20 mins to come over after pressing the waiting button on the recliners and always acted like I was a complete idiot after asking him for something.
Not my idea of being waited on whilst watching a movie.

I remember visiting this theater as a kid and it has definitely changed. I believe it is adult only but I could be wrong.
The theaters only accommodate a handful of chairs but that’s because the seats as huge, are super comfy, recline, have table tops, etc., etc. for me this is totally worth it.
In addition, you can order food, snacks, drinks and adult beverages right from your comfy seat.
We came before 12pm and were surprised by the $ 10 price per ticket! This is awesome.
Would definitely be back!

So fun! My boyfriend and I arrived and waited at the bar until we could head in to the theaters. We got awesome drinks for a great price. This location is 21 and over. We headed into the theaters and ordered our food. The service was pretty quick for what we were expecting — the food came out before the movie started and the staff did their best to be attentive but not distracting during the movie. I also loved the reclining seats! Awesome date night.

The theatre is nice however it really needs to be cleaned. The seats have food crumbs, the tables have left over food on them. I had to use the napkin to clean the tray at my seat and the place smells badly.
At the bar, the bar sitting is sticky and the ladies are slow to tend.

My boyfriend took me here for date night and the theatres are really huge inside. The servers are really fast with taking your order. However my seat still had tissue in the cup holder and my condiments were empty next to me and my boyfriend. The servers came to quickly change them out. parking is also free which is a plus.

I’ve been here twice now and I’ve enjoyed myself both times. There were just a few things I didn’t like this time around. The condiments were empty at my girlfriend and my chair. I would think they would keep those filled up. It took sometime for our drinks to come which was usually. However I love the recliners and the size of the theater. It really makes you feel immersed in the movie you watch. I would definitely go back.

Great date night thing to do. Very clean and inviting staff. Over 21 theater, which means there is a bar. The drinks are great, a bit pricy but for a date night, just perfect. Parking is no issue, there is a free parking structure. The food is delicious!!! Big portions.

I really love this theater and for awhile I went there as much as possible to see all movies I was interested in. The reason for the 3 star review is because on two occasions when the wait staff took my card and everyone else’s cards in the same theater they didn’t come back till about 30 minutes after the movie was over. Several of us had to go outside and ask where our cards were and everyone we spoke had no Idea… So that was pretty irritating I still really love this theater, but how are you not going show star wars I mean you had the tmnt remake but not star wars!!! All in all i’ll still go there with cash.

This has become my go to movie theatre. I love that you can have drinks and food while you catch a movie. It’s not too many seats in each theatre so it’s less people, less noise, less crowded than regular theaters. They have assigned seating so you don’t have to search for seats if it’s a sold out show. I’ll keep coming back.

best theater ever !!
you can actually lay down on the couch and order food and drinks while you watch movie !!
i had a great time there. i will be back

This was my favorite movie theater in Los Angeles. I love the reserved seating, comfortable recliners, adult only environment, and not having to wait in line for food. So why 3 stars? Their lineup is awful. They rarely play the popular blockbusters/​action films. If you only like romantic comedies then this place is perfect for you. But, I was pretty much done with them when they didn’t show star wars.
Now for the food. The menu used to be awesome, now it’s horrible. You may as well order popcorn.

I just thought about this. Because I was talking to my girl and I’m avoiding this theater like the plague. The good, the bad about my experience. And I’m comparing this to ipic and another theater we go to that has nice seating but not a dine in.
Good:
The bartenders were on fucking point. Mixing the drinks etc. The martini glasses are deceptively big. The beer is good.
The lady that took our tickets was pretty nice.
The food price is actually cheap. The sushi and I forgot what fries we ordered wasn’t expensive.
Bad:
The website… it has a fucking timer for reserving seats and paying. Seriously wtf. I had to redo it because of this. And their website isn’t that good anyways. And they charge fees for buying online if you’re not a member… huh. I bought the membership before going to this place.
The girl that gave me the tickets had a huge attitude. I wasn’t the only one that noticed. I played it off cause my girl was there.
There’s a giant barrier between seats. Not a couples type place to be.
The button for calling over a waiter/​server was left on for a long ass time after pressed. What killed me is the guy saw it and looked at us like we’re annoying him. Our bad for ordering food.
I tried to tip the server (they kept switching), but he gave me the change back. Because of the length of time waiting for him there and we wanted out before the crowd. Theater wasn’t really ordering anything (yes I notice). And he did see us and me trying to call him over. But they were talking to each other.
SoSo:
The food, it was ok. My girl kind of left it alone after a bit and I had to kill it. I was hungry… She didn’t rave about it or ask me what I thought. Which means it sucked. Again I’m not a foodie and I was hungry… I eat for sustenance.
After this experience I’m not going ever again and I’ll just frequent ipic and the other theater more often.

Can you say the BEST of the BEST as far as movies???
On Christmas Day, I HAD to see this movie that just came out: Point Break. What a LOVELY movie to see in 3D, intense, action, thrilling, juicy, adrenaline racing, amazing, just spectacular to watch.
We got our tickets for the 1:50 show at Guest Services and it was our first time. We selected seats in the back since it was mostly full already, but how awesome was it to be seated with menus at the side, one for food and another for alcoholic and non-​alcoholic beverages.
Our server, James, came immediately at the push of our button. He showed us how to recline our seats and we had a blast while we ordered the fish & chips as well as the chicken tenders to share, and of course hot chamomile tea. I was loving all of the service! He was very attentive and it was a computerized order and very efficient. We felt so homey and comfortable, it was really the best service ever.
Food arrived right before the movie even started, so service was prompt! Quality was delicious. I am happy because I came hungry and had no lunch.
The movie itself was beautiful, natural, and stunning. It inspired me to become more sporty for the New Year & challenge myself on new levels. We stayed until the very end, watching the credits, because the sound was SO awesome. I would see this movie again, just because it was a fantastic movie and AMC here was super cozy. I also had my fur coat to keep me warm =)
Family, movie, and food on Christmas Day!!! GOOD TIMES!!! =)
I definitely love this venue and think it’s the perfect date place or family hangout.

Go or the seats! This is my favorite theater. Every seat in the house is a good seat. I don’t like the bright lights on the side of the seats though.
The tickets are pricier then the rest of the westside, and they make a ton from food and drinks, so I don’t know why the tickets are so high, but for me this place is a treat!
I wish the food was healthier. So many times I want to eat here, but their menu has all the calories next to the food. All the dishes are like 800 calories or more and their popcorn is $ 8 and prebuttered.
I also wish there was a way to not have the waiter come and bug you every 15 min to see if anything else is needed. They need a button pushing system or a do not disturb light for customers. They also need an easier bill pay method. It’s annoying after five «do you need anythings» to get handed the bill toward the end of the movie and then have to wait for you card. That’s like over seven interactions with the waiter during the movie!!! I dunno, I just think there is a more efficient way for the workflow of the dining system.
All in all, love this theater.
But I love ordering a drink

This theater would have gotten 5 stars a year ago. For those of you new to the experience, the menu used to be fantastic. Bistro style food to accompany the big seats and drinks. You actually felt you were getting the upscale filmgoing experience that a $ 20 ticket would accompany. Not anymore. Now it’s a fried food, hamburger heavy joke. I actually just wrote a whole post about it to try to get a movement going to bring back decent food to this joint–
Go to Cinemark on Jefferson. Cheaper, WAY better food, still has booze. Until they fix this mess, avoid it.

Local movie theater!
Fish tacos and blackened chicken sandwich are amazing!!! Always delicious and consistent on the taste!
Friendly amazing helpful staff!
Highly recommend going!

We love coming here, but they NEVER seem to have the movies we want to see at this theater. Please start having the blockbuster movies that adults would like to see in a kid free environment. We love to use our Stubs card, but have gone to Cinemark instead for our last 3 movies– and will again today, because you don’t have great movie choices here.
Aside from movie choices– this is a great concept with good service.

They upped the prices SO MUCH. Two people having dinner and a movie now costs ~$ 100. (That’s two standard movie tickets, one appetizer, two shrimp taco entrees, a water, an iced tea, and tip.)
NOT worth it anymore. We used to come here weekly and have stopped completely.
ALTERNATIVE:
Cinemark Playa Vista & XD in Culver City offers the exact same dinner service with their ‘Reserve Level’ ticketing, except it’s WAY cheaper and you’re sitting on a cool balcony in even MORE comfortable recliners. Cinemark also has a full bar, an extensive food menu, offers you free popcorn, and their screens show a higher quality picture.
Forget AMC and go to Cinemark Playa Vista & XD.

My review is based on their food menu. They changed it and made it yuckier! U can no longer order ur wings and things. Pizza’s gone. Truffle fries gone. i ordered their version of chicken strips. It was so gross. I tried to drown it with the dipping sauce. well that didn’t help. McDonald’s chicken nuggets way better.

As close to a 5 star as any theater in the la area. Lets be clear about a few things. Yes, there are only six theaters total and most are not that big. That just means that not every movie out will be shown there especially during summer blockbuster season. For big movie releases seats tend to go very fast. The seats are always more then regular amc theater seats at other locations, depending on when you see the movie it might be as little as a few dollars more.
Heres the good things about this theater, all seats are the same wide leather power recliners. There is a ton of legroom in all the seats, which is nice for people that have to getup a lot or come in late, no more having people step over you. All the food and drink service is at your fingertips you just push the call button and they come to you. If you need a refill on popcorn or your drink middle of the movie just hit the button amd they come to you. The food is better then regular amc food and not that much more. They actually give you real silverwear and cloth napkins. You can get a beer or cocktail with your movie. Another plus is they check id as you have to be 21+ which means no crying babies or unruly kids.
So, any negatives? If you already think movies cost too much to begin with this is not the theater for you. If you want to bring your kids then this isnt the theater for you. If you think movie concessions are too much then this isnt for you.
Overall this theater is something i wish they would convert more theaters into. I dont mind paying a little bit extra for better seating, no kids, and in seat service. When they dont have the movie i want to watch i go to another theater with a similar setup. They also have a regular amc across the street with more seats and movies being shown. Please amc convert more theaters into these types!!!

This is a pretty cool thing to do… almost like the modern version of how cool a drive in movie theater was back in the day. That being said… you have to go here at least once! It is kinda expensive, but if you consider the fact that you are paying for both dinner and a movie, it is really time efficient. Two birds, one stone.
You can order your tickets online and show them to the ticket lady upon entering without ever having to print anything out. All the seats are reserved, so you pick before going in. It was still early for seating, but there is always the option of having some pre-​movie drinks at the bar which is pretty cool. The bartender was really nice and a good conversationalist.
Once inside the theater, there are all those recliners with the pull out trays. The menus are right there and the staff is quick to get a drink order while you look at the menu. She explains how everything works such as calling her during the showing for extra drinks or food items. The waitress was really nice and even was on top of clearing my tray once I was finished with my food.
Overall I think it was a great experience that is a great date idea, but I don’t think I’d be coming back with a huge family party any time soon.

There’s a regular AMC not too far from the dine-​in so make sure you’re going to the right one. This one is above the sports chalet on the corner, hard to miss if you’re driving by. The other AMC is next to fatburger.
The idea of combining a dinner and movie is great. It’s nothing new but having both at one location is convenient. There’s actually three options to have dinner: 1. In the lobby if you get to your movie early 2. In the movie theater. A waiter will come to your seat shortly after sitting down 3. The restaurants before walking in to the theaters.
Don’t come to this place if you’re tired. The seats can recline and are very relaxing. There’s no such thing as a bad view from any seat. The layout of the theater was well planned and they have great service just to top off the experience. Can’t wait to try this out again.

What a place! Can i take of these amazing seats home? Pleeeeaaase!
I had a great experience, so great i felt as sleep during the movie! I just have one little thing to say… $ 8 for pop corn???
