    It was my first time at Hooky, and I enjoyed the movie theater experience. The seats felt private, with mini walls between every two seats in some areas, and there is even the option for heated seats! There wasn't a menu at every seat or a QR code available. The popcorn was good, but they forgot to bring napkins and a paper plate/bowl for sharing. Also, you have to get up for refills. At Moviehouse & Eatery by Cinepolis, they bring your refills directly to your seat. I also asked for a glass of water, but instead, I was brought a bottle of water, which was overpriced.

    A great entertainment depot with an upscale movie theater, an arcade, and a bowling alley. I came to see a movie and truly enjoyed the experience. They have super nice seats and food to order, perfect sound system, quiet and comfortable AC, and very reasonable prices! Oh, and the restrooms are clean too. The location is great -- inside the Southlake Town Center so easy parking and many eateries and shops around. I also like their large seating area in front of the entrance, it's a gray spot for a large group gathering or as a meet up point.

    I recently went to watch a movie here and had such a great experience! The place was super clean and has everything all in one spot arcade games, gaming options, a fast food restaurants, and even a bar. It's definitely more than just a movie theater. They offer bottomless popcorn (huge win ). I tried the chicken wings, which were pretty good, and the pizza was surprisingly really good for a theater! The seats were super comfortable, reclines all the way with heating options and overall the vibe was great. I'll definitely be coming back again!

    The flavorful blackened double chicken Caesar salad topped with Parmesan crisps was a delight, especially paired with sweet tea. While dining, I enjoyed watching Mortal Kombat 2 in the spacious, spotless theater equipped with comfortable La-Z-Boy chairs. I'm already looking forward to returning for another delicious meal and a great movie experience.

    Where to start... When this place was EVO, it was one of our family go-tos for convenience. Unfortunately, ever since the company split and it became Hooky, the prices went up, while overall quality went DOWN. We decided to give it another chance after the change and went to see Jurassic World. The experience was disappointing from start to finish. The seats were extremely uncomfortable. My husband had something poking him the entire movie, and mine made a loud squeaking sound every time I shifted. Many of the chairs were visibly worn down and in poor condition, which made it hard to enjoy the film. The food was mediocre, which I could have overlooked, but that evening my son ended up with food poisoning, and that sealed our decision not to return. To make matters worse, the sound system was unbalanced, constantly swinging from too quiet to too loud, which made watching the movie even more frustrating. We used to love coming here when it was EVO: bowling, playing games, and catching movies made it a great family night out. Sadly, since the transition to Hooky, it's lost all of that appeal. Until major improvements are made, we won't be back.

    Great time with my son at the Southlake stiore. Great food and games. It was not busy

    This place is amazing. We came in town for a Wedding and though the Reception was the next day we can call our visit to Hooky's the after party. I know that whoever is reading this is thinking the same thing I was thinking. But I was wrong. Going here was a great idea because it gave family who came from all over the country and let me say we had a Blast. It was the perfect place for family to get reunited in a place made for fun. There was Bowling, Food, Games and a Bar. I have to acknowledge Ashton and his Crew who were top notch with Service and Assistance. I can honestly say that Ashton is now part of our family. What a great Manager! He saw to our ever need and made sure the unusual evening went well. The new Menu ( According to them) was great, but let me put y'all on. My favorite Wings are Lemon Pepper. Though they weren't on the Menu they had Lemon Pepper Seasoning. I asked for them to dry rub my full order with it and they accommodated easily. Those were some of the best Wings I've ever had. They should really put those on the Menu. In total we probably ordered at least 4 full orders including the Garlic Parmesan Wings. Burgers were delicious as well as the Loaded Waffle Fries. The Bartender also did a great job keeping our Glasses full. He was busy for a while lol. I should have taken more pictures but I was caught up with family I hadn't seen in a while and it slipped me. Kids loved playing The Games and Adults as well as the kids head a great time Bowling. When coming back to the Dallas area South Lake seems to be a great location that was central to our stay. Hooky's will definitely be in our list of places to visit. Thanks again Ashton for the Service and Hospitality and welcome to the family. BTW, I could out they they also Host parties. That's it's next family plan. Yall'hollaatchaboy!

    Went here to see the new SpongeBob movie and I was the only person in the theater! The workers were the sweetest people and they really made me have a good experience because of their amazing customer service! I can't wait to go back!

    The seats weren't cleaned before the next movie.

    Such a fun place to take your family or friends. We headed to Main Event for my daughter's 15th…read morebirthday as a place for her to hang out with her friends. They were mostly interested in the arcade as well as eating some pizza in the pizza cafe. At Main Event they offer bowling, arcade, billiards, laser tag and VR. They have party rooms as well as two restaurants and bar. I did notice some specials that would be good to share. On Tuesdays they offer kids 12 and under eat free with a menu items of 11.99 or more. Happy hour is offered Monday-Friday 3:00pm -6:00 pm. On Sunday-Thursday they also offer Happy hour 9:00 pm-11:00 pm. On Monday nights they offer all you can play games after 4:00 p.m. for 12.99. Also everyday except Saturday you can play activities for 19.99 plus a 10.00 fun card. The staff was very friendly. My daughter's friend lost her phone and one of the staff was able to find that it was left in the bar. We were very grateful that he took the time to help us check. Such wonderful service and manners. We will be back if we are in the area.

We ordered wings and although at sight they appeared burnt, however, she said they were surprisingly delicious and she did not have any meat left on the bones. I too devoured my plate and would have to agree with her. They are some of the best plain wings I've ever had.

General manager had the capacity to credit account/card that was already paid for a month ago, EVEN WITH our proof of purchase. THEIR system wiped all transactions the day and time we originally visited, but they chose not to give us a refund or provide credits. GM even said he has the authority to give us credits, but he didnt want to. Made us wait for 30 min just to tell us to go through our bank. Visited about a month ago when the system was running into issues. They recommended we try reloading credits into the card to see if it worked, which we did: $110. It didn't work. We came back today (1 month later) to see if the system loaded our card and it never did, but our payment was posted. Looks like the day we originally visited (10/18), the system recorded NO transactions from 12PM-3PM. We provided proof of payment via credit card transaction, but due to them not being able to "verify the transaction" on their end (because their own system was down???) they could not credit our card/account. The GM was absolutely useless and noncooperative even with physical evidence of our payment. He literally told us he has the authority to credit our account, but was choosing not to. Wasted 30 min of our time with no rectification under the guise of "finding proof of transaction" with a system that malfunctioned and couldn't work bc IT team was not even working (on a Saturday). Powertripping leadership with no care for customer experience. Fun venue but lack of service ruined experience

    Being in the service industry is hard work. It's long hours. Terrible customers at times. And just…read moreexhausting. I'm in it. So I would know. But still... I expect at least semi decent service. Homeboy who served me seemed more interested in flirting with the snowbunnies, wiping down counters, and walking around the place which had 8 people including me on a Tuesday night, than to bring me the menu or take my drink order. If I wasn't trying to get to bed soon and if I wasn't super hungry, I'd definitely would have just walked out. The menu online had so much food but when I got here at 830pm, it was only wings and fries available. There was a few sauces available including buffalo, bbq, dry rubs, lemon pepper etc. but I went with the mango habenero and the Korean sweet and spicy. The Korean was good. The mango was lacking. I think it wasn't tossed long enough in the sauce as it felt more dry than wet. I asked for blue cheese and they gave me ranch. I asked again but this time I asked different server and he checked but at least he came back to tell me there wasn't any rather than just giving me ranch. The wings were good for bar food. But compared to other places I would say average. I think it would be a nice date night during the week. There's food, drinks, and games. But with lousy service I don't think I'd come back with a date. Which is a shame because I think it would have been fun. I didn't even bother trying to play because I could barely get anyone's attention. Would have said 3 stars for this place solely based off of how fun it looked and its potential but the service was trash and very unwelcoming.

    We arrived early on a Saturday and all lanes were taken (there was a Christmas party that has 4…read morelanes). The host was awesome, he gave us darts and asked us to wait until a lane opened, which we had no problem with. We took the darts and got a drink at the bar. The drinks were strong! The darts was fun but 10 minutes into the game the host came to get us because the football bowling lane opened up for us! It sounds like it is open for however long you want. We were not given a time limit! We played 7 rounds! After that we went back to play darts! We had such a great date night! The location is large and there were A TON of people hanging out! It's a great hang out spot! The staff was nice, the location was clean and spacious, there are many activities! We will come back for another date night!
