    filthy bathrooms and the kid in there to clean it hid in the other stall with his broom and dustpan and was playing on his phone! This theater ALWAYS has absolutely filthy bathrooms!!!

    AMC Tysons makes patrons leave visible water bottles outside the theater. (Bring your bag!)
    Zoya F.

    Until AMC Tysons changes its boneheaded policy on water bottles, this theater gets one star from me. See photo: managers insist that patrons' visible water bottles are left unguarded outside the theater. Leaving those personal water bottles unguarded is a great way to assist a malicious person to steal a container or even roofie another person. Managers at AMC Tysons have made this policy decision; the policy is different at other AMC theaters. I've talked with managers and complained online, but nothing has changed. Apparently, keeping down the risks of a few folks stealing soda is worth the negative risks of stolen containers or adulterated drinks. You can tell that this AMC doesn't care a bit about protecting personal property--or patrons' personal safety.

    This amc is in a great location. Convenient/clean and have a variety of options to choose from depending on the experience you want. The snacks are expensive which is why they lose a star but really that seems to be the norm for theaters everywhere. Their workers are polite and fast so you're not standing around long. Thanks @yelpelite for the awesome date night!

    I have been coming to this location for a long time. I love that this location has majority of the free advanced movie screenings. On a recent visit viewing the movie Death of a Unicorn, the popcorn ordered was supposed to not have salt on it. When we received it, it had salt on it. Anthony who assisted me and immediately made a new batch of unsalted popcorn. I really appreciated how friendly he was and went above and beyond to assist me. Thank you Anthony!!! I want to make sure Anthony is recognized. I recommend getting their stub premiere membership too. You get a free large popcorn and drink for your birthday month! The service fees are waived. You can earn $5 off rewards & stand in the premier line at the concession stand. This is located in Tyson's 1 mall and I always park on the top floor of the garage where Nordstrom is located.

    My husband and I came to AMC Tyson's for an early release of The Accountant 2. There was a line of people waiting to get in when we arrived and the theatre made it easy for you to get in and see the movie. We were able to order food and drinks from the bar/concession. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience and cannot wait to come back to AMC Tyson's.

    Filthy seats.
    Stephen T.

    I normally try not to write bad reviews. However this is June 2025. The red cloth seats are filthy. It doesn't need to be cleaned, just replaced. Men's restroom also needs more cleaning - smells. It's been like this for Years. With the location being in Tyson Mall and in this area it seriously needs better up keep. If I can I visit other AMC locations.

    This theater was nice and clean. I came for here for a movie screening and the staff at the concession stand was so friendly and patient. It was pretty quiet but it was also a Tuesday night, not sure if that made a difference but,I like that this theater has the kitchen opened and you can see the employees preparing everything. The pizza was hot but it's not very tasty. It sort of reminded me if 711 pizza--and I think they need a new distributor because we all know the movies are to expensive to be selling BS.If you're going to sell cardboard, at least put some season that ish. But on a positive note, if you really like to relax they have a bar inside of the theater for you. I haven't been to a movie theater since before Covid. This was a wonderful experience for my first returning.

    The Idea of You. A cute rom com.
    Joy B.

    I really enjoyed the advanced movie screening of The Idea of You with Anne Hathaway and Nicholas Galatzine. It was a cute rom com about a single mom who is forty, who is falling for a young boy band member(Hayes). It was a fresh, funny, story that had great supporting characters, like Ella Rubin, who plays Izzy, Salene's teenage daughter. The music was really good. The movie gave insight to life in a boy band, as well as a single parent trying to raise their children, while navigating a life of their own. I found it entertaining and enjoyable. It is out on Amazon-Prime and I recommend watching it. Thanks Kimi and Yelp for this great experience.

    Does this theater have recliner chairs?

    Yes it does. But I don't believe all the theaters do, so check which one your movie is playing in. It does say in the ticket.

    What night is the $5 movie night for senior citizens?

    I don't know if they have senior citizen movies but they do have cheap Tuesday nights.

    Does anyone know the manager of the AMC of Tysons?

    No, however, if you call them, they should be able to give you that information.

Before the Michael movie began, my husband and I ordered popcorn, two milkshakes, and a meal for him (I believe it included skewers). Our total was over $70. My husband waited about 25 minutes for his meal before going to the counter to ask about it. He was told they were understaffed and returned to our seats. After another 25 minutes, the food still had not arrived. He went back to the counter, and they refunded only the meal he never received. In my opinion, the entire order should have been refunded because the delay significantly impacted our movie experience. My husband spent much of the beginning of the movie waiting and expecting his food, and ultimately had nothing to eat except popcorn. The bathrooms were also not well maintained. Multiple toilets were clogged and would not flush, leaving them filled with urine and toilet paper. The sinks were surrounded by water and strands of hair. In the family restroom, the toilet was continuously flushing, smelled strongly of urine, and the toilet seat was covered in dirt or some kind of buildup. I love the comfortable seats, but the poor service and lack of cleanliness made me hesitant to return. If I am paying premium prices for both dining and a movie, I expect timely service and clean facilities.

    Went here recently with a movie and the service was terrible…read more 1. Everything was very disorganized, many people didn't know how to get food, or where to get it. The staff there did not seem able to help anyone. It seemed there were about 3 different systems to order food. You couldn't order real food on the concessions kiosk, and you couldn't just go to to the counter to order food like in other theaters. You had to order real food from your seats, butt when we got to our seats, we couldn't see a food menu, but had to call a server (which we did, but they never came). Only after the movie was over, did someone tell us we could order food from staff. We asked this before the movie, and were told we had to order from our seats. 2. Staff seemed disinterested and lacked training. I had a question about food, as the QR code wasn't working. I went up to an associate to ask for help. At first they tried walking away from me, but I flagged them down. I know they saw me, since we looked at each other right in the eyes. They said "Just scan the QR code." When I informed them I did and it still wasn't working, I just got a blank stare in return. Luckily another person answered. They told us the kitchen was closed, and they weren't serving food anymore, which was incorrect. So we didn't get food until after the movie 3. I wasn't the only one with issues. After the movie, I ran into several customers who were very confused about the whole process of getting food, and lots of people had problems getting food and drink. 4. The food wasn't good either. Not that I expect a gourmet meal, but I expected edible food, as that seems to be known for. On a positive note, the actual theater was pretty nice. Comfortable seats, better than AMC/Regal. The screen was very clear. Overall, it seems the staff were very poorly trained, didn't want to help customers, and seemed very overwhelmed. This was not a pleasant experience for myself, or the people I was with. I doubt I'd ever come back to this theater.

I recognize that the Magic Duel takes huge pride in 5 star reviews on Yelp, which I deeply respect. But I did wish that we had seen the show in a different venue. I am no stage expert, but lights and sound do matter a lot in delivery of a magic show for a skeptic like me, going because the significant other loves magic shows. With better lighting, things would have been more "magical" (thinking bottles.) I was also surprised that a bubble artist, as good as she was in her profession, was considered a magician. After some quick research, you will end up at Magic Duel in this genre, so please go to Dupont or Georgetown.

We went from a creepy lab, a meatpacking conveyor belt, to boots on the ground fighting in a zombie war zone! So much fun with many more surprises and features I'll let you discover for yourself. I felt it was long enough towards the end, I start hoping the goblins would stop coming. Perfect amount of time. They give you a keepsake video which is edited with everyone's gamer names, a recap of the scores, highlights, and who your team's MVP is! Great for bragging and talking ish over dinner after the game is over. It is pricey about $65 per person, but it's not something you'll do every weekend. It truly is a unique experience, because this is the only chain in the DMV. The staff is polite and do a great job of explaining the rules and how to wear the equipment. Definitely arrive 15 minutes early, especially if you've never played the game before. I will definitely comeback for a 3rd experience, the more people for the spooky Deadwood Phobia, the better!

I didn't read anything about LUZIA, but the show actually exceeded my expectations!

I absolutely enjoyed their soundtrack, so definitely getting their album! Our seats were the best, as we had a wonderful view of the overall stage.

    This was probably close to my 10th Cirque Du Soleil show but first since the pandemic. For those…read morewho still care, masks were almost non-existant but there were a few in the crowd and employees. As another reviewer said, it's fairly easy to park at the mall and walk. If you park at Tyson's Corner Center (Tyson's 1, not the closer Tyson's 2/Galleria) IMO it is not obvious how to cross the street from the mall, so it took a bit of exploring. Another reviewers hint to look for the metro and use the bridge was solid (paired with logical keep to sidewalks). So first the "bad": * I think this was the first Cirque show I've seen where I saw mistakes. Ironically, given another reviewer praise, it was with the ring events. * I also think this was the first Cirque show I've been to where there were noticable 'cleanup' crew on stage that were not "in character" part of the show (besides between acts). * Finally, there was a lot going on at times with this show. My SO said that is not atypical but acknowledged sometimes it seemed like there were 2 acts going on at once (in addition to the always small things to look at). To their credit this does give some rewatch value for whoever can afford that. * Occasionally spotlights were in my eyes. This might have been seating but I suspect all but the middle or maybe far corners would have been affected at some point. More informational than bad, besides those spotlights, because the stage rotates I didn't really feel like the more expensive seats were worth it. I think being in the nosebleed seats likely would have been fine as long as you don't care about close up costume detail or maybe some crowd interaction. Maybe not the far right and left. I will add the online ticket/seat picking map makes the place look a lot bigger than it is. Aside from all that, the performances were solid and the music was stellar. SO said it was nice things were bilingual (spanish english) vs the "normal" French. Maybe it has been because it's been a number of years, but things to me felt fresh and new. Before the pandemic SO and I were mulling how Cirque shows were feeling a bit stale. If you disagree with me and don't find this fresh, my advice is take some time off and come back, maybe that's what it was. Maybe it was our seats but of all the Cirque I've been to, it felt like the actors on stage were smiling and nodding specifically at me vs in general. I also really appreciated the "freeze" scenes because I know that takes a ton of strength and almost every single performer was doing it. As far as the water add, I disagree with another reviewer. IMO anything you can do without water, is more difficult with water and was well executed and fun to watch. The masks and puppetry (in addition to normal costumes) was all good. One "comedy" in between acts did involve having a large ball tossed around the audience which I felt was an accident waiting to happen. Luckily it never came our way. I also cannot say I remember noticing so many repeat performers before. It wasn't stale but I do wonder if they shrunk their crew. Last notable thing for me was there were a lot of people taking video or flash camera and security was on them pretty fast which I appreciated. The light is very distracting in an otherwise pretty dark performance area, probably also for performers safety. As for the timing of the show, the doors opened 30m before showtime. This was not stated on the tickets like the general area or concessions were. There was one "25 minute" intermission. We did not leave our seating area during that time. Unlike other reviews said, there were no metal detectors nor were our bags searched. We could have brought in outside food if we wanted. I am not sure if that was because the show was ending soon and they were over it. Your milage may vary. Bathrooms (pre-show) were the typical tight flushable portopotties...think airplane bathroom. My door was kind of questionable and I thought I might get locked in but I didn't :P My toilet also did not flush maybe it was in disorder. I thought I heard through a wall "is there no soap?" but I tried not to listen too hard :P Water was 6.50 but came in a metal (probably reusable) container. There was free water (and small plastic cups) which I had not seen before. In case it matters it was a Thursday show.

The biergarten has ample canopy seating with long benches and tabletops, perfect for groups! You can't make reservations. They have a strict policy of no outside food or drinks. The ambiance is very casual and there's no table service. Rather than ordering through a QR code, place your order at the bar and then you'll get a text alert when the food is ready for pick-up at the long table closest to the bar. The line is always pretty short and you can get a drink within 5-10 min, the food takes longer and even up to 1/2 hour for fries. I would stick to the beer on draft, the cocktails can be hit/miss depending on the bartender, the draft drinks tend to have better consistency. The Wildberry Mule cocktail and Pina Colada Sangria and Peach Seltzer on draft were my picks while the Bourbon Smash, Passionfruit Mojito, Pina Colada Mojito, and the Passionfruit Seltzer were misses. On the flip side, the bartenders poured a generous amount of Prosecco for Mimosas, much appreciated! The bottled Angry Orchard apple cider is generally my go-to. There's always a mocktail on the menu (came in handy when I was pregnant!) The new battered fries are so much better than last year! The menu is limited with simple bar food (bbq pulled pork sandwich, burger, grilled cheese, hot dog, fries, kettle chips). Wish there were more vegetarian options like charcuterie board, hummus and crackers, nachos, mac and cheese, etc. While I give credit for having a Veggie Burger on the menu, it's sad and disappointing. It has a very smoky meaty flavor (from the grill, not the patty) with lackluster toppings - the vegan cheese is disgusting. I would swap out the kettle chips and pay the upcharge for fries. The doughy pretzel sticks are quite salty and a step up from the movie theater. They are good for absorbing the alcohol! Despite these minor complaints, I love coming here with family and fries. So glad The Perch opened up, Starr Hill Biergarten is a great spot to kick back and relax with a beer or 2!
