I did end up coming back to watch a movie. Altho it was quit the traveling but I still came . I went to watch Venom & it was one of the best movie this year. I also Tried their food this time, I tried their vegan cauliflower basket with a chilled glass of coke. I gotta admit that it was soo yumm. Also coke is refillable . You just press the button & someone will come & rifill your soda ! Thank you guys for an awesome service.

Fun world-class theater experience. Went here with a friend to watch Super Mario Brothers and was intrigued by the interior design. The building has Wing Chun dummies on the outside with outdoor dining. There is a whole hallway dedicated to old school Kung Fu movie posters of Jackie Chan and Bruce Lee which was fun to see. I enjoyed the dining options though they were expensive - $20 (+$4 for tip) for a large crispy chicken sandwich with large gravy fries. The service was quick. 5/5

Claw machine - buy a drink to get a token to play.

Honestly, I really wanted to like this location's Alamo because it is closer to me than the others but just like my prior review (in which I gave them the benefit of the doubt because it was still relatively new at the time) it fell short. Out of the 3 locations in NYC, this is the last one I would go to. The service was a little weird this time. When I walked in they checked our tickets at the front desk which is weird and seems like a waste of time since it's checked when you're seated too. The other locations you just go into the theatre and they only check once. I had written our order before she got to me to check my tickets but instead of just taking the order card to punch in the order, I had to read it out to her. I would've preferred to watch the previews instead of reading out our order. After taking our order, instead of continuing down the aisle she went up one level even though there was a group next to us. She never checked on them and kept bypassing them until eventually they got a hold of one of the servers to put their order in right before the movie started (which took a good 15 min). And then because she never went to them, she had to bother them just as the movie was starting to get 4 credit cards, 1-2 at a time which was very distracting. This time we ordered mainly from the limited time only menu: -glazed and infused burger with fries - partner said the burger was "okay"; fries weren't crispy on the outside and potatoey on the inside like other locations, kind of tasted like frozen fries reheated; the weird thing was it is supposed to be served with ketchup but instead we got salsa...dipping fries in salsa? Ok. -I want all of you pretzel - honestly, didn't taste like a pretzel, tasted more like fluffy bread. I did like the jalepeno cream cheese dip but it wasn't well mixed. The bottom just tasted like cream cheese, while the top was great with a kick of jalepeno. -tried to order the big freakin' cookie shake - but they were out. Also overheard from another group that a normal beer was out as well. -carnivore pizza - the homemade marinara is usually very tasty, but this time it didn't have the punchy seasoning I usually like. Additionally, after the meal, I ordered 2 large waters but for some reason, only one came.

This place is absolutely amazing! You've got to check it out! They have great movies, menu, awesome atmosphere, and programming is cool. The posters and history alone is worth the visit! The staff is cool and real too !

It's here!!!!!

I have been waiting for about two years when I heard about the announcement. I don't have to go over the bridge and pay for parking! :) I went on the opening day to watch Flying Guillotine.. and now I'm back two days later to go see Marcel the Shell. I'm so excited, for real. The seats recline. Please note: no texting in the theatre, or taking calls. There's always a funny reminder before the movie. I've reactivated my season pass and I'm so so excited. The staff are super nice and really trying to make sure everyone has a great experience!

Worst service I have ever experienced in my life. Last night I bought 3 tickets to see Avatar at Alamo drafthouse in Staten Island. The reason for purchasing the tickets was to take my friend, who recently had major foot surgery out of the house. He was using a iwalk (device that attached to the knee and acts as a foot) for the first time. He was happy to have it because it helped him move around and allowed him so freedom; however he needed to keep a slow pace to remain steady as he moved. We parked in the parking lot close to the escalator in the Alamo drafthouse shopping center. Since we had to move slow, it took us about 15 minutes to cross the street, get on the escalator, walk up the second level hallway and into the theater. By the time we got to the front desk of Alamo it was 30 mins past the start time of the movie. The two people working at the front desk (male and female) scanned our tickets then paused and said 'oh do you know about our late policy?' We said no (we had no idea). The Alamo employee stared at my friends leg on his iwalk and said 'you didn't get here fast enough' I saw my friend look down at his feet. I could see how hurt my friend was...not being able to move like normal was/is a big mental pain for him right now and to be told that he didn't get there fast enough seemed like a Specifically mean choice of words. My friend was so hurt he couldn't speak. I explained to the two Alamo people at the desk how tough things have been for my friend, I also explained how we took almost 15 minutes to get to the Alamo desk from the parking lot because of my friends restricted movement. The man behind the desk cut me off and told me 'this isn't a movie theater for people like you' - I have no idea what he meant by this. Was he speaking about my friends leg, just because we were late, was there any other reason?I didn't ask him because he was raising his voice and getting in my face. I politely told him I'm not trying to make you upset or escalate the Situation I was just explaining to you on a human level what caused us to be late. I asked for a refund but he also refused. I was left with no choice but to leave. I was hurt my friend was crushed it was the worst night.

One of the food options that you get at your table I choose a burger with lettuce and tomato and onions with fries.

This theater is awesome the food is great it's real food that gets delivered to your table you write or your order down and the server will come to your table as there assigned to you for the whole movie showing you can get burgers or popcorn anything food and drinks non alcohol or have a beer delivered to your table. The seats recline and yea it's nice you aren't distracted the only time you have to get up is to go to the bathroom. Everything is delivered to you.

My boyfriend and I always have a great time at Trackside and it's one of our favorite date night…read morespots! We are always warmly welcomed by the staff and Frank and Bobo, in particularly. Heather and Mary are so nice and hardworking, always making sure their customers are comfortable and happy even when the place is filled to the top. For example, on several occasions when the room is full and we eat dinner in the back, these ladies will save a table for us once one becomes available. They are always super attentive and always have a smile on their face! The food at Trackside is delicious. My usuals include their vodka pie, French fries, and brownie sundaes for dessert. At first I was hesitant to try the vodka pie since it wasn't from an Italian restaurant, but it exceeded my expectations!! Better than anywhere else! The prices are reasonable as well. The drinks are just as good and the bartenders, Michelle and Trish, make them nice and strong. Michelle and Trish work so hard, making sure everyone is attended to while at the same time catching up with their many "usuals". One strawberry margarita can give me a nice buzz. I tend to get their fruity drinks-Malibu bay breezes, margaritas-while my boyfriend is a wine connoisseur. There are always great bands playing on Friday and Saturday nights, both livening up the atmosphere and making everyone want to sing along. My favorite is American Cover Story. Definitely head over to this favorite neighborhood bar and grill for a great time! (If I forgot to mention anyone, I'm sorry. You're included in this!!)

We're looking forward to our next visit!

There is the main dinning room, as well as three additional private rooms for different sized parties. Service was great, the hostess and our server Matt were so warm and professional, Matt answered all of our questions and gave excellent service. The food and cocktails were delicious. I had the Chicken and waffles, served hot and the chicken had a nice crunch, I also had to have the Sally's French toast with Unicorn sugar, yes, I said Unicorn sugar! My drink was coconut caramel latte from the adult iced coffees menu. So delicious. One friend had the shrimp and avocado toast, she said it was great, her cocktail was Pineapple Mango Mojito Mocktail. Another friend had the cherry peach waffle and the Drops of Jupiter, that cocktail had Galaxy dust! Yup galaxy dust. Check out the photos.

Found this place on tiktok. My friend and I were looking for a brunch place in the middle since…read moreshes in Crown Heights and Im in jersey. The Oreo waffle convinced her. Parking is street parking. With all the snow, parking was more difficult I believe. The place isn't huge but the vibe was spot on. Our server was top tier. We sat down and both remarked we needed water. He already had it ready to leave at the table while he was taking care of another table. To drink I had The Hideaway and my friend had the Mimo-Spirtz. To eat I got the Cajun Shrimp and Cheesy Gritz. She got the Oreo waffle, a side of bacon and eggs. I also got the Fried Cinnamon Bun for dessert. I asked our server to surprise me with a drink. He gave me the Toasted Almond. The entire experience was just beautiful. We sat there for about 3 hours just chatting and they never rushed us out. I would definitely go back.

Very nice decor inside. Two seating areas. Came for lunch on a weekday as we were the only ones…read morethere. Service was great. Staff was great and had recommendations. Fried Zucchini 10/10 Fried Calamari 08/10 (can't really get this wrong) Hazelnut Espresso Martini with Baileys 6/10. (Didn't really get any hazelnut flavor from it except the little hazelnut crunch that was a topping, wasn't a fan of the foam, but under all that it was delish) We both ordered Cesar Salads one with chicken and one with avocado. We devoured it. I mean a Ceasar salad itself is great, presentation, flavor, portion, taste were great. Prices were affordable. I'd like to come back to try the brunch menu.
