Jonquil B.

I enjoy both of the movie as well as the theater! I tend to come here a lot but never remember to review this dine in theater. It's always clean and they have great customer service but sometimes it's hard to find people to help. The theater is quiet and great for dates, family nights or solo movie dates. I do really appreciate the fact that not only is the theater itself is clean but the concession stand as well as the bathrooms are always taken care of. Of course like with all theaters, food and snacks are expensive but you do get some discount if you're part of the AMC movie club. Definitely come check out a movie here as well as the food and drinks. They have a full bar and they will make a special drinks for you if you ask.

Loaded Tater Tots

This AMC has to be my favorite movie theater to visit in the whole city. It's always clean, never too crowded, and the employees are always very nice and helpful. For me, the big reason I love this theater is the food options. I get the loaded Tater Tots every visit and they never disappoint! They have tons of other dining options, and it's definitely a plus that they bring it to your seat in the theater! The only downside is that it's in the middle of downtown so parking is difficult to find and/or quite expensive. It's also near a play theater, so there's often a lot of traffic near Block 37 depending on the time of day.

Given expired passes!!!

Horrible Was giving expire tickets & due to a mishap the last time we were here & was pretty much told unfortunately there's nothing that can be done about it ‼

I really enjoyed my time at AMC DINE-IN Block 37. The service was good, and the overall vibe was clean and cozy--especially with fewer people in the theater, which made it feel more homely and relaxed. The reclining chairs were super comfortable and perfect for unwinding. One suggestion: clearer signage or instructions would be helpful. The kiosk said my food would be delivered, so I assumed drinks would be too--but I guess that was my mistake. Just a little clarification there would make things smoother. Since we dealing with machines and not humans. Other than that, great experience! www.carlinecreate.com

Comfy seats
Alan B.

We were looking for a break from our marathon Chicago walking, and decided to catch a movie. This is a dine in theater, and the seats are really comfortable. They are fully reclining with foot rests, and go back so far, you could literally sleep in them. If you go here before 4pm they offer discounted pricing, I think our tickets were $13. Our theater was small, and even though it was a weekend, there were only a handful of patrons in the entire theater. That's likely because the movie had been out for quite some time, and theaters tend to be slow during the day. That's why we usually go at off times, we find it's quiet and more enjoyable. You can order food at the lobby kiosk and it will be delivered to your seats. Since we had lunch prior, we don't know how the food is here. Seats are assigned, which is always a plus. The theater was clean and looked to be in good shape, it's on the fourth floor of the mall.

First time here and loved this theater! Good food options that can be ordered ahead of time when I purchased the tickets online and food is delivered right to your seats. Seats fully recline with a raised foot rest and the table swings over your lap for eating. Everything was great!

Worse scary movie experience ever !
Hailey A.

Worse scary movie experience ever ! Who wants to pay $23 to watch horror with lights on, especially that bright one blaring right in your face ! Totally ruined the vibe. I even got up to ask someone to dim the lights. I get they bring food to your seat but that's only in the first 20 min of movie. *idk how to reply to AMC response, but I did in fact walk out the auditorium to speak with someone about it, he said he would look into it, and the lights still were not dimmed even 1% more

A very nice theatre at the top of Block 37 mall. No CS agents, only kiosks, but a rep was available at guest services, which was perfect because I needed assistance with my AMC Stubs account. They have a bar and the women's restroom was very clean. Your food gets delivered to your seats, but I appreciated being able to pick up the bag of popcorn we bought. The seats are much larger than the standard ones, reclining and comfortable and these are the best of all of their theatres, I think. They are pricey but all theatres are now. As with others, there are discounts for matinees and most of the earlier times. Great for an occasional outing.

Had a late night viewing of Insidious here and we had a good time. We bought our tickets online and we were surprised when each ticket came out to be $23 each. Not including snacks or anything extra - just the movie ticket. We arrived about 20 minutes before the movie started and the lobby was fairly empty. The employee was nice and scanned us in right away. We then headed to the kiosk and purchased popcorn, tenders, and a drink. Paid about $30 for snacks. Once inside the theater room we sat down and the seats were very comfy. My food slowly started coming out and we dug in. The popcorn and tenders were both really good. The French fries were also good, they were hot and crispy. The movie was great but people were being loud for no reason which was super annoying. I'm not sure why grown people think its ok for them to add their own sound effects... We were too scared to say anything to them because we were in Chicago after all...

Come here very often to watch movies. Recently I came here to watch Black Bag movie. And order the loaded fries. They are good.

Ask the Community - AMC DINE-IN Block 37

Are the movie screens the same size as a traditional theater?

Old-time theaters- No. Multiplex- Yes, on the larger end of multiplex screens.

Is the food included or separate when purchasing tickets?

The food is a separate charge

Do they ever turn the lights out?

No, not really. It's kinda annoying actually.

Does anyone know if they accept the Yellow AMC passes you can buy through Costco?

What's the best parking?

There's a parking garage below the ground floor. Have no idea what the price is.

How early should you be for a movie?

Usually they start letting people in 15 min before the movie starts.

Me and a few friends would like to see a movie here, but we are under 18. The movie we want to see is a PG rated movie. Are we able to see the movie without parents?

Assuming you're in your teens, yes.

We originally came to Ghost Donkey as paranormal investigators, after being hired to locate the…read moremissing ghost donkey belonging to a local agave farmer. The case had gone cold--or perhaps mezcal-hot--until we received a clue pointing us toward River North. Ghost Donkey is spacious, colorful, and full of energy, with plenty of bar seating and tables. The music can get loud, but it fits the atmosphere perfectly. The bartenders were constantly interacting with guests, swinging the lights, encouraging the crowd, and turning the entire room into a neon-lit fiesta. They do have a food menu featuring items such as tacos, nachos, quesadillas, and guacamole, but we mostly came for the drinks. Many of the cocktails are tequila- or mezcal-based, which is exactly what we enjoy. The menu is creative, the drinks are strong, and the bar does an excellent job making agave spirits approachable--even for guests who may not consider themselves mezcal experts. After two drinks and an argument with a decorative donkey, we finally found the missing spirit hiding behind the bar. He was translucent, smelled faintly of roasted agave, and appeared to be carrying a tiny map. We followed him through a glowing hallway, down a staircase, and into a secret chamber where he revealed the legendary piñata of Quetzalcoatl, the ancient feathered serpent god. Naturally, we attempted to break it open. Instead of candy, it released a cloud of mystical dust, three lime wedges, and a receipt for nachos. The ghost donkey brayed with laughter, the lights began swinging, and the entire bar erupted in applause. The bartender handed us another drink and told us this happened all the time. Ghost Donkey is a fantastic place to hang out, pregame, and enjoy inventive tequila and mezcal cocktails in a lively setting. Just be warned: you may arrive looking for a ghost donkey and leave having helped recover an ancient Mexican god's piñata. That's simply the sort of evening this place encourages.

It's a reasonably-priced busy dive bar in the heart of Chicago. I asked the bartender if she had a beer + shot deal and she said "no, but you can order a beer and shot." And so we did! Noise level is fairly high, thanks to a lively crowd plus a jukebox. They don't normally serve food but I think are fine with customers bringing in your own food, and you can also place an order from a nearby restaurant (I don't recall which one). And yes, it's cash only so bring some money if you don't want to pay ATM fees! 4 out of 5 Green Stars for social and environmental impact. I like bars that allow customers to bring (or order) their own food - it allows for all diets! The one thing I'd like to see is more beer on tap - even just one good rotating local beer (e.g., Goose Island). Draft beer has smaller environmental footprints compared to bottled or canned.

You can grab you own beer from their refrigerators, however, you'll need to pay and have the bar open them for you. I was impressed by the variety of the selection.

I found Ila's on Google and liked the variety of menu items. The food appeared to elevate comfort food from multiple cuisines, such as American, Italian, South American, Asian, and Southeast Asian. I reached out to the restaurant and was assisted with a reservation for 14 people. Our table was set and ready to go as soon as we arrived at 8:30pm on a Saturday. Overall customer was excellent. Thank you to the hostess for making my sister, the bride, feel special. She complimented her and hyped her up for the night, which was really sweet. Our server was awesome too. He was friendly and highly attentive. Loved that our food and drinks also came out in a timely manner. I enjoyed everything I ate. I had a few bites of the appetizers including the scallops, fried paneer, and 2 kinds of empanadas (corn and chicken). We also got lumpia and a mixed bread platter for the table. Though I didn't have any of the latter, they were a hit at our table. I got the burger as my entree, and it was such a redemption from a crappy burger I got elsewhere earlier in my trip. The double smashed patties were juicy and flavorful. I devoured the burger and loved the thin cut fries. All-in-all, we had a lovely dinner at Ila's for my sister's bachelorette party.

Sometimes, nothing beats a few (or many) drinks in a hottub. They even provide a nifty shower for cleaning up afterwards. The decor is pretty neat as well. The not-so-good: The space isn't huge, wouldn't comfortably fit more than 10-12 people. They don't have normal drinks here, the beers I tried were disgusting, so I just stuck to good ol' scotch. That said, the other cocktails sounded interesting (they were all mostly fruity). The hottub was way too hot, none of us could stay in it very long. You have to go outside of the room to change, possibly running into other hotel guests or whatever is above grounds.
