    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.

    35/100 Movies are an escape.Movies at Star Cinema with snacks and drinks are an amazing evening. With comfortable seating and many available screens to watch different movies, this cinema brings me back to watching movies as a kid. Lines are typically fast and employees are friendly. Worth a visit!

    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.

    Small light for VIP seats

    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.

    Neutral visit. Only came to sit and chat with a friend, friendly staff showed us the conference room and share what's the latest and best films that's currently showing.

    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.

    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!

    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. Everything was clean, the staff was friendly, and the overall vibe made it easy to just relax and enjoy the movie. Definitely a spot I'll keep coming back to.

    Good food, great service, and clean restrooms -- loved the setup at Star Cinema! Communication on when the Movie should start... 2 PM started at 2:21 pm Good for birthday parties. Nicely done.

    Popcorn & sangria
    Angiee L.

    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.

    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.

    Double pepperoni pizza with mushrooms
    Jeannie W.

    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. Ordered the double pepperoni pizza, I have to say I was surprised that the pizza was good! It had a nice crispy crust on it! Would definitely return to watch other movies! Ballerina was so good!!

    I hadn't been back to iPic since 2019-ish, and with movie theatres trying to survive during the…read moretime of streaming culture, it was fun to get dressed up and see a fun flick (I saw The Devil Wears Prada 2 with my old editor). We started with a few drinks in their Took Took lounge before the movie. Drinks were moderately priced (aperol spritz) priced at ~$10. I know that's a lot to some, but I feel like drinks are $12-$15 these days (and not even craft cocktails). I'll also point out that I went to an outdated movie theater recently (AMC 8 downtown), and their wines were $20 a glass. So what you pay for in premium movie tickets at iPic, the food/drink options are better quality and probably cheaper compared to other basic movie theaters.

We headed to the restroom first, but an employee followed us and told us we couldn't use it. I politely asked if we could buy the tickets first and then use the restroom, but the whole interaction felt unnecessary and frustrating. Because of that, we ended up buying tickets much earlier than the time our movie actually started. When we got to our seats, they weren't clean, so my boyfriend had to ask if someone could wipe them down, which was also irritating. Overall, it was a very underwhelming experience. We tried to give this place a chance, but next time we'll probably just go to Cinemark.

    OVERALL GOOD-My family took me here to celebrate my birthday. Let me start by describing the meal…read moreand service. The first course was a fresh mixed greens salad. At the table, there was only a raspberry vinaigrette dressing to top the salad. It was good, but had berry seeds that were a little off putting. The rest of my group would have preferred a second dressing option such as ranch. When booking, you could choose chicken, fish or vegetarian. We all had the chicken. It was a beautiful plate of assorted roasted vegetables and potatoes topped with grilled chicken. The vegetables were a bit overcooked but were still tasty. The chicken was seasoned, but it could have used a bit more seasoning for my taste. Another guest at our table had the vegetarian option, a grilled cauliflower, and it looked delicious.They served iced tea, water, and there was a cash bar. They were slow to refill the water & iced tea glasses. I might suggest a pitcher of water at each table. The dessert course was a very good creamy chocolate mousse with fresh fruit & a crunchy cookie. Now for the show. This was a combination of acting, jokes, and audience participation. After the rules were explained, we were encouraged to make our way around the room to talk to the other participants to see if you could identify any suspects. The show started with a "murder" and clues were given through QR codes using your phone. Between courses, the actor led us through the story and interacted with the audience. Halfway through, the meal was served. After the dessert course, the actors started the final part of the show. There was a second and third murder, more clues, and the audience was then asked for the provided "who done it" questionnaires. Once collected the show staff went through the clues and announced the winner. The murder mystery part of the event was a little hit and miss for me. One of the neat things was that we had three of the hidden actors at our table. One was obviously part of the performance, but the other two were revealed in the end as actors in the show. During the pre-meal and meal time, they carried on table talk and added their input about suspects and clues just as if they were guests in the audience. Their reveal as part of the show at the end was very surprising to my party and made it very enjoyable. On the other hand, the website with the description of the event suggests "you will not find yourself staring at cheesy costumes, there will be no recited campy dialogue and certainly no hokey song and dance," My party believed all of this was in the show to some extent. I do understand each scripted show could have better writing and different actors which might make a difference. My party also believed that there was too much information and clues provided in the last ten minutes of the show for any guest to actually solve the crime. However, maybe my group wasn't up to speed or different shows/performances could be better planned. All in all, it was a good time.
