Always good! Parking on the 4th level of the garage is free and directly connects us to the front door. Great pricing on Tuesdays. Cute high end bar inside, and great ambiance. Service is always quick, food comes out nicely and as expected. Usually costs us around $30-$40 for two people for non-alcohol drinks and two entrees. Highly recommend the sweet potato fries!! Seating is not stadium style at this location, all same plane. A little different read more

This was my first time at this Star Cinema location as I usually use the Richmond location. The pod seats were great with a heater and massage options. I actually needed the heater because the AC made me cold. The app would not let me order at all and I am not sure why. We had to order with our server which is fine but the less people walking back and forth the better. The food was meh. The mini burger/sliders were okay and the pork was a little cold. The drinks were good and they have THC options for those who partake. I didn't try that because I didn't want to over eat. The service was good and the theater was clean. The bathrooms needed a quick cleaning though. If the food options were better, I would surely give it 5 stars. Ticket prices aren't bad but the food prices are a bit inflated. read more

I love that on Tuesdays movies are $8. The bathrooms have paper towels and not just air dryers. They have margarita specials on Tuesdays. I ordered a Caesar salad. There is a QR code by your seat but you can request a physical menu. I liked the salad. I had a problem with a $1 service charge plus a minimum of 18 percent mandatory tip. There is no custom tip option. read more

I'm normally go to the star cinema in Richmond, but I decided to come here and absolutely wonderful. It's crazy because their food taste way better than Richmond location. We had the egg rolls, a Caesar salad, salmon tacos , popcorn , and Saratoga water. We went to go see scream and it definitely was a 10 out of 10 for me. The whole experience was great. Everything was nice and clean in the waiters and waitress were great! read more

I love the upgrades that they have made, especially to the bar area and the addition of the premium VIP seats. The VIP seats come with blanket and popcorn. They bring popcorn salt and butter on the side so you can adjust it yourself. The seat itself is a recliner and comes with heat and massage function. However, my date's massage function didn't work on his chair and it is even pricier than IPIC cinema, upward of $21/tix. Our drinks and popcorn arrived fast. I didn't like how the server has to walk past you to get through the aisle as their shape blocks your view while walking by. This was a constant distraction throughout the movie. I like how clean the theater was, including the restroom. The lobby is pretty with chandeliers. They have a private room to drink and dine. Party of plenty but you can pay to reserve a parking garage space in advance. read more

Came to see Odysseus with friends! Great ambiance and service at Star Cinema as this was not my first time visiting; however on this particular day my friends and I did not receive the best service from one of the male managers in regards to an error on their end; somewhat left a bad service and impression with us; however our movie and food experience was just fine read more

Immediately after ordering our food the waitress presented the check for payment upfront which I have never experienced. She then disappeared for an extended period of time. Our food items came out in intervals spanning about 45 min in total. Never received two of our drinks. read more

Came here to see Marty Supreme and the theatre did not disappoint. The lobby was so gorgeous and the restaurant style seating and booths were a nice touch near the bar. The space smelled so fresh and was very clean. The staff was so friendly and helpful. The theatre was pretty empty during the weekday afternoon and The food came out pretty quickly after ordering. the wings were so juicy and a good amount (8) for appetizer price point. The movie was great and the seat was so comfortable. Just when I thought I would freeze the entire time, the seats have warmers and I was forever grateful. read more

We had a girls night and went to watch Housemaid! So good if you haven't seen it! But aside from that, I love what they've done with the place from when it was studio movie grill. They have a super cute bar area and seating with beautiful chandeliers. The setup in the theater is also wonderful, the seats are super comfy and recline back and also have the option for cooling and heating! The food was really good too, I had the burger and fries. I'll be coming back here again for movie night! read more

I was considering giving this place one star, but I thought about it and realized that the actual employees were really nice. However with everything else I immediately knew that this place probably wouldn't be up to my standards just by looking. The tables in front of each movie seat reminded me of cafeteria trays that you can see in a nursing home so that was my first indication. Again, the movie staff were really nice. I will for sure give them that but I just felt like we had to keep asking for the same item over and over and over again. I feel like four different times we had to ask for two separate items. I got pizza that was decent but definitely was not amazing and I got a drink as well which was also decent but not amazing. So the food was average and the service was very below average and aesthetically it just was not up to my standards or what I'm used to so I personally wouldn't come back here. read more

Star Cinema Grill is located in the old Studio Movie Grill and has been open for a year. The theater is connected to a parking garage, but finding a spot can be a process. Many spots are reserved and the garage is also used for the hotel. If you buy movie tickets online, there is an option to reserve parking for $14. The decor gives upscale vibes. I had a cocktail at the bar in the lobby and noticed that there were quite a few tables as well as a private dining room. You can order from the full food and drink menu and they also offer to go ordering through Toast Tab. I purchased tickets on the app and opted to do VIP since they were only $7 more. VIP tickets must be purchased in pairs because the seats are pods. VIP also comes with complimentary popcorn and blankets, but you have to request them from the server. The recliners have massage and heat. There's also a lamp on the wall of the pod that came in handy when we were eating during the movie. The light is bright enough to see your food, but not too bright to be a distraction. Each arm rest (including the center one) had a cupholder. These small details made for a more elevated experience. The Halle Berry Cocktail was good and refreshing. I liked that the popcorn came with a little container of butter. For my entree, I had the Smoked Brisket Tacos and they were really good! It came with chips and salsa. The check was brought out about 30 minutes before the movie ended and gratuity (18%) was already added. Our server Bryana was so nice and attentive, but there was some confusion with our checks. She asked us what we had ordered during a pivotal moment in the movie which was so distracting. I would have preferred for her to either hold on to the check or set it down and come back once the movie ended to sort it out. When the movie ended, I noticed that she charged me for the popcorn even though it was supposed to be complimentary. I pushed the call button and no one came over. Luckily, we ran into a manager as we were heading out and she was able to take care of it. She was very apologetic. Mistakes sometimes happen, but I really appreciated the accountability. read more

Upon entry, I was greeted by an energetic manager-type wanting to scan my ticket purchase QR. I was waiting for a friend to arrive, so I went to the bar to see my options. 2:45 PM on a Saturday, the bar staff was tending to BTS duties and I had to wait for her to appear in the bar. Very nice, polite, and professional; she was happy to answer all of my questions. The new decor since the name change is beautiful. In the theater, the seating has been upgraded with better chairs and individual trays for your food and beverage. Theater staff was friendly. Sweet potato fries were good. The Balsamic Feta Flatbread was good. read more

This theatre is so nicely revamped. Free parking is along the third floor of the garage- with easy access to the theatre. Checking in was straight forward by scanning our QR code. The bar area is expansive with lots of open seating. I loved the hallways that included pillars of old movie stars. Inside the theatre, the seats were sooooo comfortable! Literally felt like a cloud. It also includes a section of 'love seats' for couples, and did not obstruct the view of the screen. Service is quick is prompt. The Parmesan truffle popcorn and strawberry shake were amazing. We were accidentally charged an extra popcorn- which was quickly rectified. I will def be coming here more often! read more

Star Movie Theater was such a pleasant surprise. The food was actually really good, the seats were comfortable, and the prices were reasonable, which feels rare these days.

Relaxed date night! I've been to 4 different star line locations and this one is my favorite out of all of them. I've never been here prior to there remodel but if this place was remodeled everything looks completely brand new! Parking is a bit confusing because when you pay online for your tickets it offers you "VIP" parking for $16. DONT pay for that there's tons of free parking on the 2nd level of the parking garage! When you walk in there's a lounge/bar in the middle of the cinema and it has tons of comfy chairs to relax while you wait for your movie. We got the VIP couple chairs in the middle of the theater with a blanket, heated & massage seats. There so comfy and relaxing! Your seat automatically comes with popcorn which is also my fave. My husband always gets the wings here and I finally tried them and there soooo crispy!! Very good wings. However, the sangria did taste like straight juice but that's what to expect so no biggie. Popcorn & food came out in a timely matter. Bathrooms are super clean and well stocked also! Great theater for a date night or if you just want to come in your comfy sweats. read more

If you are short do NOT ever choose a seat right behind the row of pod seats. I'm 5'1 and if I wanted to have my seat leaned back all the way I had to make sure i sat up straight and didn't sink downwards to be able to fully see the screen (picture in my review shows from my eye level). Dont really have much else to add to this review. Got the same food as last time (breakfast tacos) and really liked them again. Theatre overall clean and nice. read more

First time coming here since it was studio movie grill. I like the decor. Staff were helpful. Seats were so comfy, they recline, cool and heat, I heard some massage.

Ballerina was so good!! read more

It's been so long since I've been to the movies, the last time I went was in 2017 to watch Logan. It was at this movie theater but back then it was called "studio movie grill". I didn't have a good experience the first time around because the service was bad. I think it has gotten better since Star Cinema grill bought them out. My friend (Tiffany J.) decided to purchase some tickets to see Sinners. She got the premium seats where we have a recliner, blankets and complimentary popcorn per person. It's really a good deal since it's about 5 dollars more. If I have to sit for Two hours and 30 minutes, I might as well be comfortable. The seats were okay in my opinion, it was soft but it was not good for my back. The premium seats provide more privacy and it's built like a two person pod so you don't see the person next to you. It has a lamp, cup holder & a table for you to eat. If you want service there's also a button for you to press. Our server was Bryana, she was very helpful and kind to us. I decided to order an 8 piece buffalo hot wings, a side of fries & a white cherry icee. My wings were okay, it was not pipping hot and right out of the fryer but it was doable. My French fries were fresh and they were thick and long, pause. Flavor wise it was also mid. The icee was refreshing and probably my favorite part of the meal. Everything came out to be around 30 bucks plus 18% gratuity. I'm not the biggest fan of them adding gratuity since I'm going to tip anyways but I also don't blame them either. People don't tip, so I ain't mad at cha for adding gratuity. At the end our server brought out our checks which wasn't the best idea because it was at the most crucial part of the movie. She was sorting out which tickets were mine and which one were my friend. That made us miss some important parts of the movie. They could've waited until the credits came up. But I get it, they want to make sure everything is done & cleaned for the next crowd to come in. There was a minor mistake for my friend bill. She was charged for two popcorns when it's suppose to be complimentary. There was a manager around and they were able to fix it quickly so no issues there. Overall, good service, the place is clean & the movie was amazing. If you haven't seen "Sinners" go see it now. It's a lot of comedy, musical, action & it leaves you a lot to think about. Great cast and everyone nailed it on their roles. There's a bar area you can order some drinks/food while you're waiting for your movie to start or just waiting on your friends to arrive. Parking is annoying but you'll eventually find a spot. Will I come back? Yes. read more

They have made a lot of noticeable changes to this venue. The updates are a welcomed change that has gotten me excited about going to the theater again. The seats have all been updated, providing a plethora of features including, soft and luxurious materials, recliners for back and feet in addition to seat warming. Private pods are available for parties of 1 or 2 which would be my recommendation but you should not consider the alternative a downgrade as the seats are just as comfortable. It's more a matter of privacy and seating position. The staff are extremely polite, honest and eager to provide a positive experience. There's an 18% gratuity automaticity applied to the bill which I am personally comfortable with given the level of service and the type of venue. It helps provide consistency by managing expectations. The popcorn is excellent and if you opt for the large, refills are included and brought to you. The pretzel includes 2 pieces with 3 sauces. I prefer the cheese or the spicy mustard. The tacos also looked really good and will probably give them a shot on the next visit. read more

am genuinely appalled by the experience I had at this theater. From the moment we approached the bar, the atmosphere was unprofessional and uncomfortable. The customer service felt dismissive and, at times, carried an undertone that was difficult to ignore in such a wealthy and diverse area. No guest should leave feeling that way. The management team was alarmingly ineffective. Rather than maintaining standards, they appeared to tolerate -- and possibly enable -- immature and inappropriate behavior from staff. The lack of oversight was obvious. When leadership is young and more focused on camaraderie than accountability, it shows throughout the entire establishment. The bartenders were far more engaged in demeaning conversations about other employees than in serving customers or maintaining a clean bar. It was uncomfortable to witness and completely unacceptable in any professional setting. The drinks themselves were poorly made and overpriced, adding insult to injury. The food was equally disappointing. Our order was entered incorrectly, and what did arrive was improperly prepared. For the prices being charged, basic accuracy and quality should not be too much to expect. What is perhaps most frustrating is the automatic gratuity. When staff are guaranteed a tip regardless of the level of service provided, there appears to be little incentive to care. The lack of attentiveness and urgency to correct mistakes reflected exactly that. This establishment is located in one of the most affluent and diverse parts of town, yet the culture inside does not reflect the professionalism that such an area demands. Management needs to seriously reevaluate their leadership, training, and accountability standards before more guests walk away feeling the same frustration. I sincerely hope this complaint is taken seriously -- because what is currently being allowed to continue is unacceptable. read more

Really nice I had fun 10/10 would recommend watched scary movie it was nice the employees are nice too

They gave really upgraded this theatre. Heated seats that recline, more space on side table, great menu. This place is awesome! You can also upgrade to a pod for walled off privacy with a date and get blankets. AND they offer a monthly subscription that's great value!! read more

This movie theater is beautiful. Inside aesthetics are very pleasing to the eye. There is parking available in the attached parking garage. Easy to find plenty of signage. Food and service is wonderful. I'm glad they finally have the premium pods open those run you about $23 but come with a blanket and reclining seats. I love that they had a heating and cooling option for the reclining seats as well as a massager very unique. You also get unlimited refills on popcorn with the premium pods. I ordered the fajita chicken nachos and frozen margarita. The margarita was very potent, and those nachos were layered with all the appropriate toppings. The only thing I didn't like is how far the bathrooms are from some of the theaters so I like going to the bathroom before you start the movie lol this theater has easily became one of my favorites. read more

Date night? Girls Night Out? Kids Movies? Star Cinema Grill recently replaced Studio Movie Grill in Town & Country. My kids used to love to come here to watch movies when they were young. Even met Corbin Bernsen (Psych and LA Law) once at a movie preview. That was quite interesting. Came for date night to see Bad Boys Ride or Die. Another classic series. So much fun. Great table service. The audience was quite lively as well. Lots of discounts available. Student. Matinee. Military. Movies are a bargain at just $6 on (Taco) Tuesdays. Garage parking available. Buy your seats on line for reserved seating. Love the reclining theater chairs. Thanks for the preview discounted tickets. read more

I love it here. It's always super clean and the staff is very friendly. I love the new seats, they are very comfortable. The food is great and the prices are reasonable. I've only had one issue with my food, they brought me pork nachos instead of chicken (I'm allergic to pork) the waiter was able to take the food back and bring me a new plate.

I had a great time. I've been surprised by the amount of changes since my last visit.

First time visiting Star Cinema Grill! This location recently replaced the Studio Movie Grill which I would say "anchored" the City Centre. Star Cinema Grill is most definitely the refresher that the City Centre needed. First of all, the remodeling and attention to detail is impeccable. The theater feels luxurious walking inside. Upscale and modern with a "less is more" vibe. No longer the feeling of "cluttered" but open and spacious. The ticket counter and bar are decorated in beautiful stone countertops and the lighting in the lobby is breathtaking by the natural light that fills the space. You no longer have to have an attendant to scan your ticket, you can walk right to your theater! I believe they are still in the process of remodeling the theaters as well as the bathrooms (I know the men's restroom was still under construction). The theater I was in had the same setup and seats from when it was Studio Movie Grill. Nonetheless, the theater was clean, and tidy, and felt relaxing. My server was Angel S. He did a phenomenal job taking care of me and the rest of the guests in the theater. Very friendly and welcoming service. I was also greeted by a manager and was thanked for coming in and to enjoy the show. Even the other servers and food runners who dropped off food for me and/or assisted me in any way was friendly and impeccable service. The food was excellent and filling. Here's what I ordered... Appetizer: Spinach & Artichoke Dip - 8/10 rating The spin dip was delicious and was presented very nicely. They give you quite a bit and lots of tortilla chips. This was definitely and appetizer to share! Too much for one person. No sour cream or salsa comes with it but the dip itself is delicious. Not my favorite dip but I really enjoyed it. Entree: Chicken Quesadilla - 9/10 rating I believe the quesadilla is listed under the starters/apps but you can easily order this as an entree. 3 huge pieces of chicken quesadillas stacked neatly ontop of one another. Very meaty and cheesy. Comes with sour cream and salsa! The guacamole is built into the quesadilla which I thought was odd but I really loved the taste. Super filling and you can easily share this. Dessert: Fudge Brownie a La Mode - 10/10 rating 10/10 I would order this again. The presentation was beautiful (even in the dark) and tasted even better. I ate the whole thing! Very gooey and warm. Just what you would expect from brownies and ice cream. You can't go wrong. Very good experience. The atmosphere, service, and food was all excellent. The price is a bit pricey but standard for a movie and dinner. Can't wait to return! read more

So I came here recently to check out the upgrades and modifications. I must say I was pleasantly surprised. They have new interior and new seating along sides of corridor as you walk to movie, cute to take a photo. The chairs recline with the food tray in front to hold ur food. These are new chairs, they weren't like this here before. The food was about a 7.5. The service was amazing. Everyone was super attentive and courteous. Had a couple of drinks and the liquor bottles were definitely NOT watered down. So overall, I'm ready to go again. I'm glad they revamped it and I had a good experience bc now I'll be back.. and I'll tell my friends .. lol I posted some food photos too bc I couldn't find any before I ordered. FOOD The hot dog i'd get again it was really good, bun a little "bready" for me but I just took some off. Fries were kinda skimpy but tastes good. The spinach artichoke dip was okay.. nothing to brag about and the tortilla chips were fresh with a sprinkle of salt so I liked them. I was too full to order anything else but the popcorn bowl looked crazy good. I'm getting some next time. Overall I'll try my luck and order food again from here when I come. read more

BG: date, late night (11PM), walk in They had 7 showings. 3 of which were no longer showing (understandable it was 11PM xD). Beautiful interior. There was no one at the receptionist desk for 5-7 minutes, but it's okay we were looking up info anyway. Receptionist/bar staff was very friendly and as knowledgeable as they can be. Drink: -Craft beer ($9) : didn't try this but bf said he liked it. 9/10 -Orange dreamsicle infused sparkling THC drink ($12)(no alcohol) : Isn't strong (I am a light weight for anything). Felt mellow and relaxed the whole night. (Finished the drink myself) tasted so good like soda. 10/10 -coke icee ($8) : small skinny cup. I don't know if they allow free refills because we were late night. Great icee though.8/10 Food: -nachos libre pulled pork ($19) : cheese was salty af, pork was really dry, but if you play around with it and eat a chip with a lil cheese and a lil pork it's okay. 5/10 -love me tenders ($17) : tenders so good. Tasted crispier + more flavorful than fast casual tenders. Fries a bit soggy, but tasted fine. They serve it with a side of ketchup and ketchup Mayo sauce. 8/10 Dessert: -Hope floats root beer ($8) : great when the ice cream is not fully melted yet. So good. But when the ice cream melts it tastes like diabetes in a cup. 8/10 Inside theatre notes -screen is small, graphics aren't as good as AMC or others. -chair rows are more flat than raised. Sit either in the far back or the front for best views. -recliner is made for shorter people. (5"5 and less) I'm 5"6 and my feet hung off the chair xD Overall good experience though. Movie and dinner. Wish they had more options than just comfort snacks or burgers. Great try though! read more

10/10 would recommend this spot! From the minute you walk in, you're greeted by friendly staff members. The entire establishment is so well maintained and clean. I cannot say enough about the quality of food served here. I forgot I was at a theater for a second. The price is a little high but worth it in my opinion. My favorite part? The massage option with the reclining seats!! I was recently at another star cinema that's a little closer to home and regretted my choice for booking with them as this spot spoiled me time after time. I've already told my friends and family that this is the only spot I'll go to watch my movies because every single time I have visited, I've gotten the same best experience. read more

They autograt u 18% minimal tip plus a $1 service fee (just because they feel like it) so they don't really care about what service they give you. I ordered a salad and water. I got the salad, never got the water until I asked for it twice. Then when they finally brought the water a third into the movie, I asked for extra salad dressing (since the salad I got had barely anything in it and tasted like just dry salad and dry chicken). They brought the salad dressing 30 minutes later when I had already said F it and ate the salad. Then they also charged me for it. Never had this bad of an experience at SCG. The Richmond location is great. I don't know what is wrong with this City Center one. read more
