Upon entering the 2nd floor was a concession stand, colored brightly like Miami Vice era.. we were greeted by an attendant before walking the hallway to the theater rooms.

The sound was impressive because, I coukd hear every little note n noise in the movie. Or maybe I was just into watching Michael. We had snack sized butter popcorn n water for snack. Saving our appetite and calories for dinner.

You purchase tickets at the kiosk when you enter, then head upstairs to the theaters. The decor is very minimal with a mid-century modern feel in both the furniture and color palette. There's a small seating area along with a snack station upstairs. The theater itself was great - big, soft leather recliner seats, clear picture quality, and sound that was balanced perfectly. My only complaint is that it was freezing inside, so definitely bring a blanket or jacket. They also have a nice mix of current releases and classic films. Overall, it's a great spot for either a daytime movie or an evening out.

The sound was so freaking absurd at last review, and again, the decibels were at 81, this time, s we walked out a couple of different movies. When asking if it could be adjusted, the girl at the front replied, "yeah, that's the way it is." This time, we asked a server, Hannah, if this was possible, and "they" actually turned it down, and no one in the theatre with us seemed to notice or care. Big time impressed with whomever has come in board at Lake Highlands. The food offerings remain a bit lack luster, Sony, the new company owner, is not spending funds on the theatre seats. The seat covering is like super sheer cheap pantyhose, with exposed foam, but the servers in the theatres are courteous, professional and attentive. Hannah at Lake Highlands and the manager are excellent. so happy as this theatre is needed in east Dallas. Thanks!

I have been to this theater a few times in the past... It is…read moreclose to my house and convenient for me to get to, the seats are comfortable and clean, and they have these cute couples couches available in some theaters where you can snuggle with your significant other which I thought was cute. This place is huge with other fun things you can do there like an arcade/bar/bowling. I haven't had a chance to do those but maybe someday... For me the food and the service has always been great, I usually get the same thing every time which is girl dinner: Chicken Caesar salad +fries + water and then maybe sometimes a dessert. This last time made me sad because the food was just not up to its usual standard. I was missing parts of my salad which were the crunchy parm crisps that tie the whole salad together! I searched for them in the darkness but alas...there were none. My fries were lukewarm at best, still crunchy and salty, but usually they're piping hot and fresh. When I tried to order dessert, the server came to my seat and told me all you had were the churros, so I cancelled my order because I just was not feeling that. I figured it was due to the fact that they had a private party, which I suspected from the beginning as the parking was packed, which for a Tuesday night, I was surprised to see since I usually have my days off during the week and have never seen this. All in all, I prefer this theater over other major chains like Cinemark or Regal just because they have always been consistent, I feel like they have a very diverse menu, and the place is always clean with comfy recliner seats. Oscar did reach out to me when I sent in my concerns over my last experience when they asked for a review, he said he wants to make sure my next visit is an enjoyable one, which I appreciated. One bad food experience isn't going to deter me from coming back as I said, this is not the norm. Mortal Kombat 2 is out and I will be watching that with my boyfriend and hopefully this time we get to experience those cute couches and the food service that I know and love. I still recommend this theater to my friends and I will be back.

Seats are very comfortable and provide plenty of room. I did notice that the leather or vinyl covering on our seats had been peeled off in some sections D8-9) and need to be refurbished. Kind of surprising since Hooky has not been opened very long. We were in row D and I felt like that was a little close to the huge screen. I'll know better next time. You access the menu via QR code with your phone. Very easy to order. A bit of a mystery on how to get a soda refill or how to get just a cup of tapwater with ice. It did not take long at all for our order, but I will say there were only a few of us in the theater for this particular show. We tried their fried chicken sandwich, cheese pizza, and bottomless soda. The fried chicken sandwich was great. Perfectly cooked, tender and juicy. The toppings for the chicken chicken sandwich sounded a little strange, but they worked really well together and had a delicious flavor. The pizza was really not to our liking at all. It was thicker crust and my wife did not care for the flavor really. We never did figure out how to get a diet Coke refill.

It seats approximately 350 people, but it feels tight when even close to capacity because what is not updated/modernized are the chairs. Overall it is a decent venue and has good acoustics etc. what I was really disappointed in on my recent visit was that they added seats that sit up higher than the others on the first row, that obstructed the views of those of us on the second row. Also, there is not a traditional concession stand, as that part apparently was done away with in the remodel.

Inside are two screens, both quite sizeable, with ample seating. From what I understand, this theater is not open year-round. It opens during summer blockbuster season, and when highly anticipated movies come about. I suppose that's why when we showed up, the guy thought we were there to see the new Mission Impossible movie. We were actually there to see The Muppets. When we got there, I was feeling a mixture of both excitement, and nerves. I looked around, and it looked like the Movie Theater That Time Forgot. The concession stand was dimly lit and looked like it hadn't been used in ages. There were movie posters rolled up in a corner, the marquees still used removable letters...it was OLD SCHOOL. The theater is owned/operated by an Indian man, who was the only person running everything. He was the concession stand clerk, box office clerk, and projectionist. Tickets are the cheapest anywhere for new flicks. $5 for adults, $3 for kids, all the time. The movie-watching experience was pretty nice...although about 2/3 of the way through the movie, the sound had some hiccups, which the man explained was due to the way he had everything set up. He apologized for that, and we didn't really mind, since he was so incredibly nice to us. He also REALLY loves and is proud of his surround sound, which he gave us a demo of (we watched a 20 minute segment from XXX, and the explosions, car crashes, ect. sounded really great), and he was really anxious to show it to us the entire night. I have to give him credit...he may not be running a sparkling, shiny new theater, but I liked his enthusiasm for what he did have to offer, and sometimes, that's all you really need. We will most definitely be back for an action flick to make use of his sound system.

There was no one taking tickets when I walked in after buying mine at the machine. An employee then told me to wait in the snack line, which took a while and caused me to miss most of the previews.

The place is older, and the carpet can have a bit of a musty smell. Same with the bathrooms, they're pretty outdated and not always the cleanest.

I do wish they had more snack options, but they have all the basics like popcorn and drinks.

The theater is just a few minutes walking from my house, and I always pass it on my way to yoga. I finally made it to one of their Thursday night shows for the most recent production of Edward Albee's "The Goat/Who is Sylvia" (a wacky but sad story line involving a man's love affair with a goat). For those of you who don't know, Albee also wrote "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf." I was very pleased when i walked into the theater because it seemed to be a newly rennovated warehouse space with plenty of seating. Patrons were just hanging out and having wine and snacks in a little cafe area. There was an awesome art exhibit displayed with sculpures made of cigarette boxes and paintings, but for the life of me I can't remember the name of the artist. It was just a cool space to hang out in before the show. A few minutes before show time, everyone lines up at the entrance of the theater. Once you get in, it's open seating. It's not very big (maybe 100 seats?) but almost every seat is a good one with no obstructions (ampitheatre style set up). The set design was surprisingly professional. The show was great, and you really get to feel the emotion (and this particular show was VERY emotional) becuase everyone is so close to the stage and the actors. I would just advise you to bring a coat or a sweater because the theater is chilly! I highly recommend this theater, particularly if you're into a more informal experience. You can walk in the day of the show and purchase a ticket, and the prices are right!
