    This is my 3rd time going to IPIC. I'm not a huge fan of movies but if I go to a movie IPIC would the one. I love the reclining seats, the blanket, and the bathrooms are very clean. The Parmesan truffle topping added to the popcorn was perfect! My only complaint is the whole experience is very pricey. But I guess you get what you pay for.

    Safe to say I'm ruined when it comes to movie experiences. The private cubbies, food service, blankets and seating is IT FOR ME! I went 3 times in one week after finding out about this place.

    IPIC Houston is an excellent theater with reclining seats and blankets. The screens are large, the service is great, and they have a lot of food and beverage options to select from. They also screen many of the latest films.

    It's still perfectly acceptable but has defintiely gone a bit downhill since it's been open. It's still a slightly better experience than a regular movie theater, but has fallen behind some of the similar dine-in options like Alamo Drafthouse. It may be in need of a revamp sooner rather than later Price: Being in the river oaks area it is a bit pricier for tickets. The food is priced reasonably though Food: They have the usual food fair. Everything is pretty good but nothing is particularly mind blowing to me. They have a button at each seat pairing to call your server. Each seat pair shares a table which can be a bit limiting depending on how you're ordering. Seats: The seats recline fully and you do get a blanket. The blankets are not as nice as when they first opened. I do love that they have a divider between each seat pair so you have a bit of separation between guests. Overall space: The space is starting to show its age with scuffs and cracks around. Especially noteworthy was the entry to the women's restroom no longer has a glass door and has a little black curtain hanging in it's place.

    Ipic is such a comfortable and upscale theater. The seating inside the theater is comfortable and feels semi-private because of the two seat booths that are partitioned off. If you are a solo movie goer like me this can be awkward if someone books the adjoining seating because they are pretty private and intimate. This place is great for date nights. Dine-in, drink, and snack while you watch the movie or you can dine-in and drink at The Tuck Room. I didnt eat food off the menu because me and a friend had dinner reservations but we shared churros (which were amazing), m&ms, and we each had our own tub of popcorn. I had the cheddar (i loved) and she had the truffle parmesean (did not like). We both had alcoholic beverages as well. I rated them down because we told the waitress we were on separate checks and she did it anyway. We had tine to spare before dinner reservations so we got drinks at the tuck room. The staff was great but they did the same thing. They cashed us out on the same check. This is a great place for date nights but I probably wont be a regular here unless I am with someone. Its expensive but I do think the price is worth the experience. So highly recommend!

    IPIC Houston - 4.2/5 Been to this location twice now, and overall it's a solid spot if you're going for the dine-in movie experience--not if you're looking for top-tier screen quality. The theater has a nice vibe. Seats are leather and somewhat clean - there was some popcorn and crumbs under the cupholder area and a little dirty around the seats. No blankets the first time I went...but they were there this time. The food is pricey, but the portions were a lot bigger than I expected. We had the pepperoni pizza (thin crust, surprisingly good), truffle fries (crispy and flavorful), and a jalapeño tequila cocktail called Something with Tequila. The drink was spicy--caught me off guard at first--but it kinda grew on me. Probably wouldn't order it again, but not bad. We ordered everything before the movie started, which I highly recommend. First time I went, the food came during the film, and we couldn't see anything--just fumbling around in the dark trying to eat. A few tips/critiques: * Row B is way too close to the screen. I'd go with Row D or further back. * Screen quality isn't amazing--don't expect IMAX or Dolby Vision. If you're going strictly for the movie, go elsewhere. * But if you're on a date or just want good food while watching your movie? IPIC does the job. I'd go again, but only if I'm in the mood for a movie/dinner combo. Not my go-to for picture quality.

    Came here for date night and didn't care for the movie we watched but I did enjoy the theater. They provided blankets which my anemic self appreciated and the menu had a good selection of items. The service was prompt and the experience was pretty relaxed. I ordered a cookie and lobster mac n cheese. The lobster mac n cheese was a 7/10 and the cookie was an 8/10. All in all, this movie theater is pretty solid.

    Are the movies in spanish?

    We do not currently offer any movies in Spanish, thank you!

    Can you get the full menu inside the theater?

    Yes

    Can I go with a wheelchair?

    Yes Carlos, you can. We sell Wheelchair Seat tickets, as well as Companion Seats (look for these designations on the seating chart once you select a movie and showtime). Thank you!

    Can we bring our own blanket?

    I don't see why not but I may ask that you contact them just to make sure. They do have nice soft blankets though.

    Face masks still absolutely required?

    They are encouraged but not required

    Is this the kind of place where I could drop my middle schoolers off at and they could buy the ticket there themselves safely and call me when it's done or do you need an adult to be present?

    Hi Kylie- They would need an adult to be present. Thank you!

    So they still do the free unlimited popcorn? 2021

    Nope. But when I asked, they snuck me some (but I ordered other things). So doesn't hurt to ask. Lol.

    Does the arm go up in between the seats? Can the table with the seats be moved?

    Thankfully, the armrests between the seats are fixed to help clients maintain some dignity. People should "Netflix and chill" at home.… Read more

    Do we really have to order the food from the theater?

    You don't HAVE to..You can eat in the Tuck Room prior (I recommend having a reservation if you go on the weekend) or If you purchased the premium plus, they will bring the food to your seat.… Read more

    In most theaters, the front row is way too close to the screen. How does this place compare?

    I would not recommend the front row or standard seating. The premium plus seating is definitely the way to go or go to a "regular" theater. Hope this helps!

The biggest difference is the seating--here, the seats fully recline and include footrests, so you can stretch out comfortably. The seats also feel wider and more cushioned than at MarqE. The audio quality is solid, and the overall theater feels modern and well maintained. One downside during my visit was that my seat was very dirty--it looked like someone had spilled a drink on it, and the entire front of the seat was sticky and wet. I had to move to a different seat, but there were very limited options left, so I wasn't able to sit next to my partner, which was a big inconvenience. Tickets can be a bit pricey, likely because of the location, but Regal's Tuesday discounts help a lot--you can often get tickets for around $8, especially for matinee showings. Parking is available in the attached garage for $5, which is convenient since there's very limited street parking in the area. Staff were friendly during my visit, and the theater has multiple screens with a good variety of movies. Overall, this is easily one of the best movie theaters inside the loop, and I'd still recommend it.

We were not happy. The ticket agent at the front notified the manager who came to talk to us, get some clarification on what had happened and see what he could do to remedy the situation. He (regretfully we did not get his name) went above and beyond to make us happy. He had seats and a table moved into an available space, provided ticket passes and numerous other compensation for the missed step in ticket rescheduling. We had a wonderful experience watching the movie in comfort with good food and spot on service. We will definitely be returning.

I still think about them to this day... I also thought it was nice how movie viewers could order food and the workers would come serve it on a platter! I'm not too familiar with any deals or memberships that the River Oaks Theatre may have compared to its big name competitors, but I highly recommend everyone to experience a film here at least once! Also there is ample parking nearby, but can't speak on it too much since I was dropped off.

Pretty neat to come across this. So if yourself, friends, or family are looking for a place to see the newest summer blockbuster in Spanish, this is the place. It's not the fanciest theater. But as I've said in other reviews about theaters, sometimes you don't need all that. Another thing I like is that it's just a few minutes drive from Houston's Chinatown area. So if your bilingual, such as myself, and have family that prefer to watch a movie in Spanish from time to time, and you also love Asian cultures and food, this is a win win situation.

The seats are fairly comfortable. Lights are dimmed but still bright to see my way out during screening. Restroom is nice and bright. The theater staff at the counter was attentive. Don't be deterred by the prices of snacks. These are the usual movie theater prices on soda, hot dog, popcorn and nacho chips.
