It's a great experience even for a regular cinema. I love how they have different flavors of popcorn. Last time I went, they had a cheesey mix flavor, regular butter flavor, and a chili flavor. There's also a small coffee shop in the theater next to the popcorn/snack sale area. Sometimes they even have a crepe stand that sells both sweet and savory crepes. It's usually between the popcorn sale area and the coffee shop. I know that Cinepolis has a few locations in California as well. I'll have to make a visit to see if they're as good as the ones in Mexico.

The chairs don't recline & the escalator down wasn't working. Those were my only negative points but aside from that, great experience! I also love that they have kids seats in the bathroom stalls, sometimes we need our toddlers to hold still lol

It's located a bit further into the plaza whereas the regular Cinepolis is located right at the entrance. I think it's safe to say I've been here over 50 times. At one point in my life I used to watch a movie here twice every month. The workers are all so friendly and helpful. There's a nice lounge near the concession area that you can use if while you're waiting for your viewing room to open up. They have a menu that's exclusive to the VIP theatre. If you're running late and didn't have time to stop at the concession stand, you're able to order directly from your seat within the viewing room. It's usually pretty clean and I've never had a problem getting my tickets. The reclining chairs are comfortable, and while I rarely consume alcoholic beverages in movie theaters, I think it's great that they have the option for those that do. The crepes are my favorite snack. My favorite is blackberry jam with cream cheese.

It's located inside the mall and there is ample parking at the mall parking lot. Upon walking up there was no one working the ticket counter but after a brief wait we were asked what movie we wanted to see and purchased our tickets. It looked as though they were a bit understaffed because the person at the ticket counter then had to run behind the snack counter to help another customer. They have comfortable chairs but it smelled a bit mildewy when we walked in the theater. It could have been because it was the first showing of the day and the air conditioning had been off. The smell went away pretty quickly and the sound and picture were great.

Join the club and earn points that can get you free tickets or free food. I have a large family of 8 so we're always racking up the points. I love how they send us off with little trays that we can place into the cup holders and it holds all the food conveniently. We never have to worry about rushing inside to get a good seat because everyone picks their seats out at time of purchase. So we can let the crowd stomp all over each other and once the dust has settled then we walk in and go straight to our assigned seats. The place is usually fairly clean, I mean, it's a movie theater so there will be popcorn and a few spills here and there but for the most part it's managed well. I've been coming here since 2011 and it's always been a good experience. Another plus is a majority of the movies are in English!!!! Which is fantastic for my family since we don't speak Spanish. The movies have Spanish subtitles underneath and it's not distracting at all.

We were too full from previous meals to try the food, but definitely will return to do so. The staff was attentive as well. Overall a cool, memorable, and pleasant experience!

The bar on the 3rd story along with the décor looks like it belongs somewhere in Gaslamp. The food was pretty cheap but on the smaller fancier portion size. We got the ceviche, octopus tostada, and shrimp tostada. The ceviche was really good, lots of octopus! It was quite expensive though since if you pay in USD they gave you the exchange rate of 16 (the day we went it's about 19). The shrimp tostada was amazing! The portions of the shrimp were very good, and it tasted so fresh. I also liked my octopus tostada. It was a bit on the smaller side, but I would pay that any time since I can't get it for less than that in the states! Drinks were good, made very much like a craft cocktail place. I got the tamarind pineapple cocktail with mezcal and a tajin rim. Very hipster place...don't have straws as well. Staff spoke English and was polite.
