I went here for the first time after my son raved about it. He's seen three movies: Creed III, John Wick and tonight we saw Super Mario Brothers. Now I know what you are thinking... why Super Mario Brothers. Honestly my son (19 yrs old) was so excited to take me here that we found a movie to go see, just so he could take me to this theater. To give you some perspective, I like elevated cinema experiences. So we go to AMC Dolby as a baseline and Alamo Drafthouse on Slaughter is my absolute fav. This, however, was not my cup of tea. Tons of parking and when you enter it's a typical menu. It's got some old school soda fountains with six basic flavors (Pepsi not Coke) and popcorn. Some interesting items like dipping dots, Nathan's hotdogs and Doritos nachos. I got some Butterfinger minis in a box and they tasted stale but the popcorn was fresh. However don't get too excited yet. If you know about this theater, the seats move to the action in the movie. So if a boat is on the water...the seats moves like waves or if it's raining, water drips from the ceiling, if a punch flies your seat jerks and a gust of wind sprays you in your ear and your face and if a car tumbles across a highway the seats will damn near throw you and your popcorn across your neighbors. While it sounds cool, think about these slow and sporadic radical movements for TWO HOURS. If you get sea sick this is not for you. Any motion sickness issues, don't do it. Now I do not have motion sickness and come the last fifteen minutes I was tempted to go sit on the side stairs. You can barely eat and definitely be careful trying to take a drink for fear of launching it. The kids around me seemed to love it and my son does too but I won't be back. My boogie ass will take a glass of wine and dessert an hour into the film while I recline and tap my card to pay. If you love a two-hour theme park ride... this place is for you. read more

All of the ICEE machines are broken every single time we go. You would think the manager would order the appropriate service technician to come down and fix it after 6 months of it always being broken. Maybe you should just go to AMC. read more

My first and last visit. Went to see a movie in iMax 3D with my 2 grandsons. The sound was so loud it actually hurt our ears. A couple of other people went to find a manager to ask the volume be lowered, and I gess they found someone becasue about 15 minutes later, it was lowered a little. The screen wasn't much larger than the screen at a regular theater, so definitely not woth the extra price they charge for iMax. Then the movie looked cloudy until about half way through when I discovered the 3D glasses were were scratched and you had to raise them and look through the bottom 1/4 of the lense to see a clear picture. One of the grand kids complained of the same thing when we were leaving. This is a little drive from where I live and we only went here because the nearby theaters were sold out. I'll make sure I don't make this mistake again. read more

Regal Gateway - Regal iMax. Stonelake Blvd. - Cinema Near Me - Austin, Texas

The theater is dated for sure and it took about 25 minutes to get anything at the concessions. The IMAX was great though.

Needs a reboot. Moldy smelling. Bathrooms a mess. Chairs NOT comfortable. Floors sticky. Will find a different Regal or go to Cinemark.

I have to be fair and call this a three-star for nothing really bad happened, but I'm not sure it was as good as it should have been. First things first: we went to the movies Friday night for the first time in more than six months - we were apprehensive and excited all at once. [Side note: We went to see Unhinged; for the love of God save your money. Has to get a Golden Raspberry for one of the worst films of 2020.] Regal, like just about everyone else now, let's you pre-select seats so that was easy. There seat map also shows blocked seats (for social distancing) so that's nice too. You have some idea who's going to be around you. Entry was easy - show your online ticket to the ticket taker at the door. I will say his phone had trouble reading our screen (on a big phone no less) so I had to get within two feet of him - not cool. We bypassed the non-existent line at the concession stand where the four attendants were milling around and talking much much closer than 6 feet apart from each other. Not. Cool. The movie theatre itself seemed fine although I noticed the seats were somewhat dingy. Obviously they cleaned the hard surfaces (I hope with a sanitizer) but if you're going to close for several months why not get the seats (cloth fabric covered) cleaned too with all the money you saved on the wages you didn't pay. Doesn't add up. Again; nothing bad per se, but taking our temperatures before we came in (as Alamo does) or ensuring a way to check in with a remote screen or monitor rather than standing very close to a complete stranger might have made it more comfortable. So, can't say it was a bad experience (I'm rating the theatre, not the movie) but it could have been better. read more

Come on Regal! UPGRADE this theatre... at least just a bit. Some new seats is really all I want. The seats here fold up automatically when you aren't sitting in it. My kid though couldn't even sit in the seat we paid for because the seat kept folding on her. ANNOYING! I guess I forgot I'd been to this theater before. I'll skip this location going forward. read more

I absolutely HATE giving bad reviews as I'm in the industry that's review driven... BUT we came to see Thor in 4DX and Screen 1 had NO A/C!!!!!! Incredibly HOT. We come from an older house that has no central AC, so we rely on window units, and using the movies (which is normally cold in nature/reputation) as getaway from the Texas heat (it's 105 today not including the heat index) was hotter than our house! It was so hot, my husband started to get sick and we head to leave early and not be able to enjoy the $50 plus popcorn/drink etc we happily PAID for... Worse experience ever and I can't ask my husband to come back again or we risk him getting sick again... We should get a refund or a rain check or SOMETHING! Call this theatre BEFORE buying tickets so you don't risk going thru this as well! read more

The manager always seems uptight and rude. Every time we go there she is unpleasant. Our dinosaur movie was really late and the seats aren't comfortable. Would be a go-to if it had the nice recliners! The new cinemark theater in Waco is a great example. read more

This theater normally provides good service, but they were off their game on Friday night. Standing in line to buy some concession products, one staff member was totally overwhelmed, and then to his left was a good 10 to 15 employees all huddled up laughing joking and making a lot of noise, and having no interest in waiting on the customers. It wasn't worth the wait or the aggravation to spend A lot of time in line to buy overpriced stuff. In the theater itself, someone fell asleep at the switch because all of the lights were on even during the previews in the beginning of the movie, until someone went and grabbed a employee and they immediately shut the lights off . read more

Unsuspecting theater, but the 4DX RULES! It's best if you sit in the front 3 rows in the middle, as all of the effects work there. The smoke seems terrifying but it actually isn't that bad and smells like coconut. read more

Yelp sucks. But regal is great. It's what you expect when dealing with people and sitting in an theater.

My family and I were lucky enough to receive complimentary tickets from Yelp Austin to the movie screening of Spies in Disguise! The staff was friendly and well organized. They did a great job of keeping all cell phones out of the theater for the private event, and entertained the kiddos by passing out secret agent bow ties before the movie started. Super cute! The movie was so good!! It was entertaining for kids and adults-- I LOL'd a few times for sure. If you haven't seen this movie yet, go check it out! The theater is nice-- having a pretty standard layout and food options, with wine and beer on tap. The seating inside of the theater is dated and could use an upgrade. Recliners would be nice! Overall, this was a great event at a good theater. Thanks for having us! read more

Decent and nice theater ...Seats are comfortable and area is overall clean, and friendly staff. I love the Regal crown club program. You collect points when you buy tickets or concessions and later you can redeem your points for a free popcorn or a free movie ticket depending on your points collected. Definitely service at the concession really really sucks ! It's so slow I mean the staff is actually just dragging themselves ! Enough parking available. read more

I received complimentary tickets to this theater to watch a really great movie. I've been to this theater before (many times!) and it's been nothing, but quick and easy to enter and leave. It's a cozy theater and all went smoothly for us! The movie was clear and the audience were really engaged in it so you don't hear any chatter at all. Thank you! read more

Paid extra for the IMAX Top Gun (theater 10) but it's just a regular sized screen. Also, seats are old, rigid, unpowered and relatively uncomfortable. Theaters are in desperate need of an upgrade. read more

Avoid it..horrible screen.. dull screens. Low volume..please do not waste your time.

Painful experience! 1) Small imax theatre 2) PAINFULLY LOUD!! After several patrons complained we asked the manager Jeff to turn the volume down. He asked to clarify if we wanted it turned up and I it is wayy too loud in the theatre please turn it down, and I also signaled with my hands. Idk why, but instead they turned the volume louder to where even with covering our ears the sound physically hurt. Understand that we go to rock concerts so loud typically isn't a problem. We left the movie and got a refund. 3) The screens do not wrap around like imax 4) The seats are stiff and uncomfortable 5) Chairs are closely squeezed into rows similar to an airplane, so people cannot pass without you standing up and then it's still difficult 6) The theatre seating does not go up steeply the way a normal IMAX theatre is so there isn't a lot of headroom to easily see over the people in front of you. Easier to pick another theater. read more

Came to see Sound of Freedom. Sound was at half volume. Who wants to squeeze past crammed-in patrons in the old style seating system in order to hopefully track down an employee with a walkie talkie to call up to the projection booth when most of the time, the call actually gets ignored? read more

I would definitely think twice before going to see a movie at this theater. My husband went to see Oppenheimer in imax yesterday arrived during daylight and parked under a streetlight in their parking lot. Came out to discover the streetlight was non functional and the back passenger window of his truck was smashed in. The whole truck had been rummaged through. Two other vehicles were also hit. Management said this has become a commonplace occurrence at their theater and despite knowing it's a trend they've done nothing to increase security or raise awareness amongst patrons. read more

I received complimentary tickets to see a movie this past weekend. But this is not the first time that I have gone to this theater. I frequent it often. My husband and I really enjoy this theater. It's a little bit of a drive out of our way, but we think it's one of the nicer more upscale ones, not including the Alamo theaters. We have never had a problem when we have gone there with staff or other movie patrons. I will continue to frequent this theater. Keep up the good work. read more

I saw Marvel Endgame here with my kids. Simply put the theater needs to be upgraded. The movie needless to say was awesome, however it wasn't the best experience as the seats were comfortable and the theater was dingy. The seats are like auditorium seats that fold up. My kids weren't comfortable they're about 50lbs each and depending on how they sat they seats would fold up slightly. I definitely won't be back and there's so much more comfortable movie theaters in Austin. read more

I just went to see Black Adam in theatre 4. Color was off and a bluish cast was on the projected film. I complained and requested the projectionist check the color. Nothing was done. read more

Accidentially bought tickets to the wrong movie. Instantly realized, and emailed movietickets, who told me the theatre would have to refund it. The phone number on here isn't even this establishments number. To even reach this theatre you need to get through the automated menu, then no one answers the phone and there is no voicemail set up. I'm not gonna drive all the way to this theatre for a $40 refund, but damn. There's not even a way to communicate with this business. read more

This place is super big! There was a long line of cars coming into the theater. I parked on the far left to get onto the side of the theater. This place can get packed on a weekend. The concession lines were all long!!! They serve beer and wine here. You get a wristband when you purchase beer or wine. Cool! They also serve pizza, corn dog nuggets and chicken nuggets. That's cool! I went with the nachos. They give you a tray with the nacho cheese and a bag of Tostitos. That's different, but cool. My coworker thought it was more sanitary to give me a bag of chips. I agree. Just be sure to sign up for the Regal Crown Club so you can start earning points on your purchases. Be sure to have them scan your card or download the mobile app so they can scan your QR code. You earn points for every dollar you spend. The theater (theater 6) is a good size theater. They have cup holders near the cushion of the chair and you can pull the arm rest down (if it's up) to use the cup holder. That's cool! Plenty of drink holders. The seats don't recline. I think I appreciated the fact that my shoes were not sticking to the floor like other movies theaters. Lol read more

Just fyi; 20 min of ads and many on repeat is how our movie started. Did not enjoy........

My wife and I attended "The Intruder " Staff served great and quickly . The only thing that bothered us is that when leaving the theater, we noticed a police officer with his canine buddy. My thoughts were what kind of area is this that needs patrolling ? Not sure if we will return thinking this area is not safe read more

I was awarded complimentary tickets to see The Call of the Wild through Yelp. This was my first Yelp event. I took my 84 year old mother with me that has to use a walker. When we first arrived, there was a HUGE line outside, and it was very cold that night. I remember Yelp saying to not wait in line and to go straight to the table. Plus, there was no way my mom could have waited outside in the cold standing for that long. So, my mom and I walked through another door and headed directly to the table. Everyone was very nice to us. I know they didn't expect my mom to wait. So, we handed over our phones, received an ink stamp on the back of our hands and entered the theater. The theater was already nearly full. I asked a nice couple, who had 1 free seat on each side of them, if they could move down one seat, so my mother and I can sit together. They did, and it was close to the bottom of the stairs, so my mom only had to use one step to get to her seat. People kept coming in. More and more people! Couples had to separate and sit in different areas, etc. It was a bit crazy. My mom decided she wanted popcorn, so I dash to the food line. I was surprised how so very overly priced everything was. $8.99 for a SMALL popcorn! What??? That's just ridiculous! The movie started late, but it was a great movie. My mom and I enjoyed it very much! Thank you, Yelp, for the opportunity to attend this event. read more

This may not be entirely fair to Regal Gateway, however, several times we have gotten passes to attend previews at this theater ( always this theater) and it is"oversold". We drive from the opposite side of town, in traffic, often for an hour to attend, and more often than not lately, have been been turned away. So, how about, using the Regal cinema on the south end of town a little more often? Or, maybe not issuing as many passes, perhaps not twice the capacity of the theater? Free passes to previews are the only reason I have to be traveling across town on the heaviest traffic-time and day of the week when there are two more convenient Regal theaters nearby. read more

The overwhelming smell of windex lingers throughout the entire theaters. Ppl couching & not covering their mouths. Sickness all up in the air. 'tis the season Cashier mis counting cash unable to comprehend change... Piss all over the bathroom floors. Cellphones ringing and lighting up the room I'd say skip it. What happened Regal...I once was impressed by you. Now, now I feel like I need antibiotics just considering walking through the doors read more

I had a gift card which at the time of payment that could not be accessed. At the end of the film the provider of the gift card sent me a new link which worked. I brought the gift card electronically, to the manager and said could you please refund me and deduct the payment for this film and concession from the card? She said no not unless it was an emergency and this is not an emergency thank you and started walking away. No thank you it's my response I will never come to this theater again!!! read more

Last night I booked two tickets online for the 10:10 showing of Detective Pikachu, which my boyfriend has been wanting to see for a while now. We thought we were going to arrive late and miss some previews, but we walked into an empty auditorium and a gray screen. After double-checking that we were in the right theater, my bf went to ask an employee why the movie wasn't playing. Turns out the projector was broken! The online listings hadn't been updated. After we spoke to an employee, the manager approached us. The way she handled the situation is why I'm giving them 5 stars. She offered me a refund AND either rain check tickets or seeing another movie playing that night. I would have expected one or the other, an even trade. But a free movie plus a refund, imo, was above and beyond! Thanks! read more

I had a lot of free tickets for movies for this place so I decided to start using them this year. I am a big fan of Alamo, but, this place will do for second choice when you have free passes. It's just your standard multiplex with nothing to brag about, but, something to bitch about for sure. The men's bathrooms are too damn small. Two urinals and two stalls? Come on guys I almost took a whiz in the sink! One time I came here and they didn't have the screen on, so, half way through the previews I went out to find an attendant to alert them but no one was around. I had to go to the guy checking tickets at the main entrance! Other times the theater has been too warm. Most recent time in we caught Jurassic World 3D in IMAX. Their 3D recyclable glasses suck. Way too much glare! A real distraction from the movie. Bring our own glasses if you have them. The theater was packed, and, once again too damned hot! read more

I came here with my husband to watch war dogs before having a nice dinner at Eddie Vs. The theater was just okay. It doesn't have reserve seating or recliners. The movie theater will need to update soon to match the times. The movie theater location is great because near a lot of things to include Whole Foods, Nordstorm Rack, SAMs club, The container store, etc. The parking lot can be a challenge as it gets filled up quickly. read more

BFF and I have a regular date every week. Oftentimes, when it's rainy or too hot outside, our date of choice is to have a couple of purples and queso at Baby A's, then mosey/stumble across the street for a movie here. BFF, always the bargain hunter, has been a member of their "Crown Club" for awhile and finally got me on board so we can get discounted stuff. I think we've about had it with this spot unfortunately. They should rename the club the Regal CLOWN Club. On our prior visit, BFF had enough points for a free ticket. "Well, we can't use it this visit, you'll have to do it on your next one", they told him. So, yesterday, he positively skipped up to the window to get his free ticket and was informed he needed to bring in the ticket stub from his last visit....from two months ago.....to get the free ticket. Oh, you mean that tiny piece of paper that is most likely stuck to the bottom of some other patron's shoe?? That tiny piece of paper I no doubt washed in my jeans??? Are you telling me that this here phone app, that clearly has a QC reader and says that he has enough points for a free ticket, isn't enough???? Fuming, we bought our tickets and entered. Thankfully we were greeted by an angel of a ticket taker...so young and gorgeous, our spiteful tongues were tied and our anger was immediately quenched. Then, we went to the concession stand. I was due for a free drink. I handed my phone to the cashier with the QC reader ready and he effed it up and somehow exited the program to the log in page....I haven't had to log in to this app in almost a year. I have no idea WHAT my log in is. Being in a hurry for the movie, we just paid for the stuff like all the other suckers there, neither getting the free drink nor the points from the purchase. BFF said we needed to go visit the ticket taker again to keep from going postal. This is a clear reason why Open (or concealed) Carry is a horrible idea..... What is the point of a loyalty program that just pisses off your loyal customers? I don't know what we'll do on rainy days now....we can't quit Baby A's and Serafin, our favorite angelic bartender. I guess it'll be purples and a movie at home from now on. Thanks Regal CLOWN Cinema. read more

The "IMAX" screen was so small, it should NOT qualify as an IMAX screen. Worse yet was how cramped the theater seats were... the tightest fit we have ever been in and we are not that tall under 6 feet. It was like being on a super cheep discount airline. I would highly recommend anyone reading this review NOT go to this theater until it has been remodeled. read more

due to the Imax theater being sold out for the entire day, this was what we turned to to watch Avatar in 3D. Lines were long Parking was packed Theater was packed Prices were steep (you're basically paying $3.25 for plastic glasses) Stadium seating was non-existent Chairs don't rock or recline There was a black line on the screen which i noticed during the previews (how old are these screens?) i loved loved loved the movie though. just find another place to watch it. read more

I normally take my family to Alamo Drafthouse, but wanted to see Sound of Freedom.

While I would love for them to upgrade their seats, I appreciate them screening important works like Sound of Freedom. read more
