It is a nice clean movie theater. The only reason I chose this place is because it offered the D-BOX. I thought it was the full experience like imax+moving chair+smell etc. Unfortunately, I was wrong. Only the chair moves. you can modify its intensity from 1-3, but it is just shaking you unnecessarily and not a good feeling. Most importantly, the screen is just normal screen. No imax, no glasses and no 3D. I won't recommend the D-box. The theater itself is nice and located inside the Galleria mall and very convenient.
I went back and forth on writing this review because I really loved this theater at first, but it's consistently gone downhill. For context, I literally drove from PG County all the way to Tysons (if you know, you know) just to come here - that's how much I loved it. So... this theater has a full bar and kitchen. If you arrive about 30 minutes before your movie, a server will take your order right from your seat. The drinks? Always on point, I must say lol. But let's talk about my last two experiences. Experience #1: I walked into the theater, got comfortable, and everything seemed fine, until Jerry from Tom and Jerry decided to run across the floor. I had to take a moment to process what I just saw. Thankfully, the server and manager handled it beautifully; they were understanding, accommodating, and really professional about the situation (the server was very knowledgeable about her bourbon ). I left impressed and decided to give it some time before returning, assuming they'd fix the issue. Experience #2: A few weeks later, I came back. I arrived about 20 minutes early and was told to order at the counter this time instead of from my seat. I ordered the popcorn trio and a drink -- $45 total. When I entered the theater, the previous guests' food and plates were still there. I waited for someone to come clean, but no one did, so I had to ask. When the server finally came in, she asked me about the concern, but spoke mostly to another woman and acknowledged me here and there. After I took my seat, she asked if I was in the right one... like huh? There are only 2 of us in here I think you can determine pretty easily if I was in the correct seat - I brushed it off, but it got worse... nearly 40 minutes later, I still didn't have my food. I had to get up and grab it myself and another woman was up there wondering where her food was as well . The back flooring was kinda dirty from what I could see, but I couldn't see it all so I can't call it. To top it off, one of the armrests near me was missing, and instead of fixing it, they left the screws exposed. I really struggled writing this because I've been loyal to this theater, but honestly, I won't be back for a while. If I do, it'll just be to watch a movie, no food, no drinks. I might try another CMX location eventually, but I'm truly disappointed.
CMX has been our go-to movie theater for the past few movies that we've watched. The seats are super comfortable and in a perfect setting for a long movie, and the dine-in concept makes for a fun, elevated outing. The food is above average for a movie theater. I highly recommend the crispy chicken bowl and the tuna poke bowl since both have been consistent and satisfying. The truffle fries are also a standout. On the flip side, the popcorn doesn't taste particularly fresh, which is a bit disappointing for a theater experience. They also have a bottomless option for popcorn as well as unlimited refills for soda, but you'll need to leave the theater to partake. Service can be a hit or miss. Some visits, the staff is attentive and everything runs smoothly. Other times, it feels disorganized or slow, but it also depends on how many patrons are in the theater. That being said, CMX still stands out as a more upscale and enjoyable option compared to other theaters in the area. This is a solid spot for a casual date day/night.
The food and drinks are pricey but they are very good!!! Such a fun place!!! The service was wonderful too! They don't deliver food during the movie and that is a great rule!!!
This movie theater is a special treat to yourself. Its clean and the floors aren't sticky The seating is comfortable however the seats are still close to each other and separated by a small partition. I would have preferred it to be spaced out from other chairs. Thankfully the theater did no have alot of people when we went. The service is good and we got everything we ordered in a timely manner. I server was funny which made the experience even better. There is a gratuity charge that goes to all the staff which is fair. The food and drinks are pretty pricey but definitely worth it. Remember you're treating yourself. Movie tickets are affordable. We paid $12 per person. We order the tempura lobster skewers, the half ceasar salad, bottomless popcorn, Domini pinot grigio, and a bottle of acqua panna. The sauce that comes on the tempura lobster is super good, but they dont put enough on it. In my opinion the sauce is what makes the dish so good. The ceasar salad was good also but severed on a really small plate so the salad tends to fall off. The popcorn is buttery and delicious pairs well with white wine. I probably wouldn't order bottomless popcorn if you ordered other food items because its too much popcorn go smaller. All and all its a great experience. You dont have to spend alot of money to enjoy this theater. But, just note things add up quickly and become very pricey. I definitely suggest coming here to see a good movie.
It's nice that there's a theater option at Galleria. I went on a Friday night. It wasn't busy at all but I purchased tickets online ahead of time just in case. Placed orders with the staff once seated inside. You could also place orders outside of the theater, as well as inside before the movie starts. Ordered the crispy chicken bowl, but no sauce. I'll admit, the meal was as dry as the Sahara desert, but I didn't want the extra calories. Also, I thought the portion was very small. The seating was comfortable and I appreciated that each seat has a lamp so you can see your food if you need to.
Came in and left over drinks and food were still at our seats. They complained of being short staffed. This isn't a first at this location. I won't be back.
Spectacular theater experience that delivers the Disney IMAX experience (seats move and sound in your seats amplify the feeling of being IN the movie)! To top it off the menu is exquisite for a movie theater! Well prepared and tasty. We ordered a lot - very unique flavor profiles for that elevated appeal. Seemed clean. Free parking garage! Mall is beautiful with tons of options before and after. Worth a visit for sure - this would be the only theater I go to. Go, enjoy!!!
I've been meaning to come here since last year and finally bought some tickets to see Issa Rae's One of Them Days. I came here with one of my good friends for a Galentines evening and overall the food was great, the service was great, but the actual movie it self turned green a few times and cut off about 30-40 mins before it was supposed to end. It could not be turned back on so we received vouchers. Super disappointing. I do think more could have been done or provided but they tried. As far as the food, I got the Crispy Chicken Bowl and I would come back just for that alone. Its SO good! I also love that they give chopsticks as an option for utensils. My friend got the Blackened Salmon with a Shrimp Skewer and the Lobster Tempura and that was amazing as well. I did notice there weren't many dairy free options so we were pretty limited in terms of what we chose so I'd definitely recommend adding some dairy free or vegan options to the menu if possible. Overall, I think everyone should visit this theater at least once!
My first time visiting here with friends to see the movie Wicked. We were offered complimentary movie passes to use at a later date due to a delayed start to the movie which was greatly appreciated. The seats were super cozy, and the theater gives an intimate vibe, definitely a good date night spot! The service was great, and the food was pretty good, I ordered the Vanilla Milkshake and Plant Burger with added cheese and fries. My only con is that my food was lukewarm which with how expensive it was I'd expect it to come out warm or hot. I'd also recommend diversifying the milkshakes to include dairy free options for those who are dairy free. Overall, I had a good experience and I'd be happy to come again--next time I'll definitely give the Boozy Milkshake and Lobster Tempura a try!
Overall my experience at CMX was enjoyable! I appreciated them giving us free passes for waiting an additional 10 mins for the theater to open as they cleaned it. The service was fast and friendly! They do add 18% gratuity, which I find to be a scam but is definitely common in the DMV. Overall the theater felt luxurious. The seats were comfortable and the menu was expansive. I enjoyed my boozy cookies and cream milkshake and plant burger. I do wish my milkshake could have come out after my burger, but I understand why they bring it all out at once. My burger could have benefited from a chipotle aioli or an additional sauce, but was pretty good and I loved the truffle fries!
Arrived and the reception pointed us to the bar. Walked to the bar and the attendant had a horrible attitude. We asked for something similar to nachos and her response was "we only have what's on the menu". Ok that's fine, so we proceeded to choose milkshakes for our group and her response was that they didn't have milk. Why not let us know a few seconds before when you told us about the menu. Next we asked for a bottled water and she said they don't do that. At this point we didn't order much from this "bistro". Lastly we asked for a side of jalapeños and she told us to let the server know when they bring out our order. When our food arrived we asked the server for jalapeños and he tried to tell us that we had to order that from the bar. Luckily the server understood the confusion and lack of communication from the bartender and brought us jalapeños. The service from the bartender was horrible and definitely left a negative impact on our group about CMX Bistro. I will add that the theater and the seats were clean but the service and the amount paid for the experience not worth it.
I heard great things about this Theater and figured I'd give them a shot. For starters they are located on the top floor of Tyson's Galleria. If you are coming on a date, it's quite a walk for you lady if she's wearing heels. We made this mistake. Parking isn't near. It's a hike to the elevator and theater. Once inside, everyone was nice and we were ushered to our seats. We sat in C7 and 8. Every two seats are couples seating from left to right or right to left so keep that in mind when booking. I saw a few couples split between the divider. Also, if you don't mind looking up the entire time, C and below are for you. I wish I sat a little higher. Once the movie started and we could recline our seats, things were better. Our waitress Bria was really nice. She gave us good advice on the menu. Ordering for food via the waitress stops once the movie starts. You're free to leave the theater to order food but if you don't want to leave and miss the movie, get there on time, well before the movie starts. We ordered the Wagyu Sliders, Caesar Salad with Chicken, Strawberry Pound Cake and the Strawberry Lemon Drop. The food came out shortly during the movie. Everything was hot and fresh. Food costs were pretty standard. The fries were good. The sliders were missing some condiments (Ketchup, mustard, something. The Caesar salad was a nice size. Overall, I'd happily go back and will. Clean theatre. Good service. Decent food. Perfect date night.

I come to this theater fairly often and the bathrooms are always a bit wonky but this is absolutely the worst it's been and is quite frankly unacceptable. Every toilet was clogged except the one pictured which was a disaster. Maintenance at this Tysons location clearly needs to be done more often! This is supposed to be a luxury movie theater but this is anything but that! The two stars are for the staff who are always very friendly and helpful. read more

Now...I'm hitting them with a low score because of a few things that I did not like and they need to improve ASAP! First off this movie theater is located in the high end Tyson Corners galleria mall so while you spending coin on those luxury stores it's here for you to grab a drink, food, and movie. Now we got there about 30 minutes before our 1015 show stared so we decided to sit at the bar to grab a drink and chill before we order our food and head into the movie. We went on a Friday night the opening of the Spider-Man movie and those people were out...lol. Me and my partner came to see Odyssey which was really good. But back to the bar experience..does off miss thang that was at the bar wouldn't take our drink order as we sat at the bar. She going to say I have to get up and order at the cash register which was not even a foot from where we were sitting. Like girl really!?! Then there's an already 20% gratuity added to your bill which I cannot stand! How is that included when your service could be piss poor!?! We ordered our drinks they came out the strawberry mango lemon drop was good but a tad bit too sweet for my liken but drinkable. Now my partner he ordered a drink with Hennessy which was really good! I made sure I ordered another one of those while we were in the movie. He then got up to order our food and we headed into the movies. The burger was so damn good and the truffle fries were crispy and hot. Lord that burger was so good...lol Now the bathrooms were atrocious and disgusting! Toilets were all clogged and had urine and other substances just all in the toilets. Like are you serious! Folks flush the toilet by holding down the button long enough instead of just pressing and walking away. So I'm not sure if it's the pipes or what but y'all need to get this together. Would I go back...maybe...only because of the drinks and that burger. But I'll make sure I use the restroom in the mall before heading into there because that was just ridiculous...Smdh read more

The food is ACTUALLY good. Not just your popcorn, nachos, or hot dog. I enjoyed my wagyu beef sliders. The Strawberry shortcake could've been better but still tasted pretty good. The servers come to your seat and explain the order process. Takes your order like any other sit down restaurant. The seating was very nice. I see why it's a luxury theater. At every seat, there was a small light which I found helpful. Better than pulling out my phone and turning on my flashlight to look for something. The light wasn't too bright either. read more
I already love my significant other but he stays trying to make me fall more in love so there he goes taking me to see a movie with, you guessed it, FOOD! The drinks were another level of cool! Definitely loved this theater, would come back! If you're coming for date night make sure you count the seats from the outside in, to make sure you don't get a wall between you. My poor baby had to move cause I wanted to cuddle! Food is decent and drinks are great! #movienightwin read more

Perfect for a date night, if you want to have a more luxurious movie & dinner together this is where to go. You have to get there 30 minutes before the movie starts so they can bring the food to you, once the movie starts you have to get up. 18 percent gratuity is added to your bill automatically you can ask your server to waive or lower the percentage. Also you can order up to two drinks at a time, that way you don't have to get up again. The service is pretty quick, once the movie started we had all our food. Restrooms and dining area/bar were very clean and decor is lovely. I also liked how there's a small divider for privacy in the theater that way no one can see you stuffing your face !! Food is pricey but for a movie theater the food was amazing & i got the CMX burger and truffle fries, my partner got the Popcorn trio which consisted of shrimp, calamari & chicken! i definitely favored the dessert which was the movie candy cheesecake and the milkshake !! Only downside is my partner got a hibiscus Moscow Mule which was very very small for a Moscow Mule with mostly ice for $15!!! Overall, i would come again for a special occasion but not a go-to theater when i want to watch a movie ! read more
Wagyu sliders and fries the sliders were a 2.5/5 not really a big fan I've had a lot of wagyu burgers and these just taste like fastfood burgers but alotttt more dry, no amount of sauce could have made the burger less dry it was just over cooked. The fries and ketchup were great. The salmon was great ! Perfectly seasoned and the sauce was a great add on nothing was too salty just perfect. The bottomless popcorn and drinks were pointless since once the previews start they stop coming to you and you get your food right when they start. I would prefer to have service throughout the entire movie. We asked for a refill of our drink before the previews ended and they just. Rushed us off which is weird. The automatically get an 18% tip that's wasn't well earned The ravioli was fresh out the freezer which isn't a terrible thing but all the pieces of cheese on the inside were extremely separated and come were still cold. Not the greatest taste either. Once you pay it seems like no one wants to help you any further they will direct you to the concessions even if the time limit is not over. So you basically have 30 min to order everything you want before they leave you alone. They also don't come and take your plates so you're stuck with plates while you watch the movie. I asked for sweat tea when I went t to the concessions and it tasted like they added dishwater to it. Not saying they did just the taste of it. The seats are comfy, but sadly online you may not see the dividers between the seats. The movie I saw was beyond amazing read more
Sigh....I wanted to make this my favorite movie theater...I have been here a few times and tried to "like" the food. The food continuously comes out cold. I went to see American Fiction and got to the theater 5 mins past the movie ticket time. I was told I had to order any food from the concession stand - blank stare - I didn't understand why since the previews had just begun (they are approximately15 mins long) but I went to the stand to order fries and a boozy cookies and cream shake. The young man took his time taking my order and didn't understand I wanted the food delivered to the table which is an extra charge if you order at the concession stand AFTER your movie ticket time. Whew.... So I run to the restroom then take my seat. My shake and FROZEN fries were delivered. Okay they were not literally frozen but they were COLD. $32 for cold fries and a boozy shake ( that was actually yummy) was too much. Then the server bumped into my reclined legs as she left my table with attitude. Ummm I don't care for the food or service but the theater is clean and the seats are very comfy!! Overpriced food. Right priced tickets for a comfy movie! Just be sure to bring a coat because it was FREEZING in there!! read more

Hi Lynne, we appreciate the positive feedback. It means a lot. Your…
As a fan of trying new luxury cinemas this was definitely one of my favorites! - the food was simple but good. I got the orange chicken bowl, adding the egg really made it come together well. My friend got the ravioli and it was so creamy! For dessert, the cheesecake - loved it. The candy on top was a nice touch. Overall the move theater felt clean, our server was also very kind and went over the menu with us. My favorite part about this theater is that they only serve you before the movie, so all orders are asked and provided before the actual movie starts and you don't have any interruptions during the movie. I'll definitely be back! read more
This was my first visit to CMC CineBistro. I had a little trouble navigating to the theater once I arrived but I am glad I left early for that reason. The theater has a dine in service but cuts off at a certain point before your movie starts. There is also a 18% gratuity automatically added to your bill. You can give more if you wish. I ordered the wagyu beef sliders and fries. The sliders had a housemade tomato jam. The burgers were good. I would just prefer a little more salt and pepper added to my burger. The fries were perfectly crispy! I wish there were a few more appetizer items on the menu like a soft pretzel or even a cheesesteak egg roll. Overall I enjoyed my experience. read more

I've had a really positive experience each time I've been to this theater! They recommend you get to your showing half an hour early to order food. However, we have been able to order getting there about 5-10 minutes early each time. There is a series of ads before the trailers, so your movie will likely start about half an hour after the posted showtime (probably to give the servers time to deliver everything). There's a tray that you pull out from the side of your seat and you can turn on a small light by tapping it. After the movie starts, you can get additional food and beverages, you just have to order them from the concession stand in the hallway. The seats are very comfortable and spacious. The quality of the food here is frankly much better than I expected- I'd put it above typical chain restaurants (like Chili's/Applebee's) and maybe just a step below Founding Farmers. There's a nice variety of options available. The burger and Wagyu sliders are both very good, and the fries are nice and crispy. Surprisingly, I loved the butternut squash pave- it's like a soft square of butternut squash served over rice and coconut curry broth, and definitely felt like something I'd order in a restaurant. Your plates won't be cleared, but there's enough room for you to push your tray out of your way when you're finished. I do wish either servers would come around once (maybe halfway through the movie) or there was a place to leave your dishes when you are finished. This is a fun, chill experience and a nice way to enjoy a movie- it's definitely the most luxurious dine-in theater option I've experienced. I will be back! read more

Overall very mid experience but there were a few things that really stood out to me as red flags. To start they don't explain the seating situation very well at all so we ended up sitting in the second row thinking if he theater only had three rows, when in reality the theater had around 7 rows and the back four were the DBOX experience or whatever. So I was a little annoyed that we were so close to the screen. Then we ordered food and drinks and of course I tipped when the screen came up, not knowing that they auto apply gratuity so I ended up tipping $30 dollars all together. Additionally the food was very expensive, which I expected, but it was mid. If I went again I'd just eat the food court in the galleria as they have way better food. The strawberry mojito was extremely sweet, genuinely a level of sweetness I didn't know was achievable (negative connotation). The island aperol spritz was good. The service kinda sucks because they only let you order from your seat before the movie starts. The seats were nice but the Alamo draft house is just as nice with better service throughout the movie. If you're looking for a nice dine in movie experience I'd skip this place and go to the Alamo read more

I come to CMX about once a month and have no complaints. I always get the Strawberry Mango Lemon Drop with the Crispy Chicken Bowl. The movie theatre is always clean and my server tonight was Ty. read more

Luxury movie theater is all I got to say! I've been to movies theaters and this is the second best. The fries were delicious and the drink. The only thing my wife didn't like was the popcorn. She said they tasted burnt but that's because she a popcorn junky . But we didn't have any complaints at all. We will definitely be back. The staff were great. Our food and drinks came right fast. The theater number 6 was clean. read more

Haven't been to the movies in so long...decided to venture here for a night out on the town. Needed something to lift our spirits after yesterday's epic fail lol and CMX CineBistro did just that. Purchased our tickets online and received an awesome reward discounted ticket for tonight's show. I'm already winning with this transaction alone. Arrived on time, and was greeted with a smile by the gentleman working the cash register. The theater was empty but hey- it's Wednesday and I'm not even complaining. The seats were plushed and comfy...and reclined to give me a boost of added comfort...all I needed was a blanket! Hahaaa!! The menu looked awesome and we are definitely looking forward to the next movie night out here and next time, maybe will have dinner too... Tonight we just opted for dessert's. We went with the Vanilla milkshake, coffee for me, strawberry pound cake, popcorn, some peanut m&m's and a bottle of water. $6 for the skinny box of m&ms that's $1 at targetgeesh! I was expecting the bag of m&ms...to pour into my popcorn of course but it's all good! Aside from that-we really enjoyed this theater and we are looking forward to the next show! Happy Yelping! read more

Is the theatre hot / cold or just right?
Just right...but bring a light jacket or sweatshirt just in case.
How easy is it for people to walk past you if your seat is reclined? Some theatres it's easy, others you have to stand for people to pas (ala - Alamo, one loudoun)
Ita pretty easy! You will not need to stand
