The ARC Theater

Okay this place is really beautiful! The theatres are spacious and comfortable...the sound system is on point and...yes...I took pics of the ladies room! Do yourself a favor and see a movie here...you won't be disappointed...of course we saw Wick 3...just added to our enjoyment!

Really enjoyed the aesthetics of the theater itself. Has such a rich history and significance to the film industry and Los Angeles. The updated section is simply beautiful. I would have preferred the nostalgia of the original dome, but they seem to only to screen special showings there. We went for a late showing of It: Chapter Two. Because we had not eaten dinner, we wanted to try their concessions and bar. The bar had an assortment of cocktails themed around movies. We also tried their house beer. It was good, though service was a little dispassionate. Because we were arriving around 9, they were no longer serving food at the café that adjoins the bar. It looked good from the menu, but they were *very* outspoken about the kitchen being closed without even making suggestions for which concessions were good or anything. We went on to the theater and grabbed a large buttered popcorn, with real butter, the stuffed pretzel, and a hotdog. The popcorn was really good. However, no salts were present. They gave us little packets of salt as an alternative. The hotdog was good— no complaints there. We bought the stuffed pretzel at the recommendation of the girl at the counter and found it to be lackluster. Would opt for the regular pretzel sticks next time. We grabbed a “movie-pour” of the house beer for the movie and found it to be good. In terms of the screens and sound— excellent. Seats— not so much. I felt like I was sitting on a public bus seat. I’m talking hair, dog hair, sand??, and crusty spots on almost every seat in sight. We sat in our assigned seats, but I felt grossed out and even reluctant to put my head back. On top of that, the seats were not comfortable. They had no lean. Some recommendations: add a couple more simple menu items to remain competitive with places like Alamo Drafthouse my favorite theater and give people an actual reason to pay $16 for the movie tickets. Keep a limited bar menu for late night movies. Moreover, I could have sat in a lawn chair on a rooftop in LA for the same price and had arguably better seats. Improving or even cleaning the seats would make a difference. Would I go back? No. I’d probably head somewhere more affordable. But it’s definitely worth walking inside to look around, if anything.

Nice movie theaters. Not sofa like comfortable chairs. Easy to find theater along Sunset Blvd with the Dome structure as your point of interest. Parking is nearby with validations $3 for 4 hours. On the other hand, not related to this theater, while waiting for the movie to start, these two people seating nearby were conversing with each other about immigration and latinos crossing the border illegaly and taking all the benefits, etc. Don't want to be nosy but their conversation is loud and clear. the old caucasian guy is telling how he loves Trump and hates these mexicans crossing the border. He said he voted for hillary but soon change hia affiliation to the current presidential. He didn't realized that he's talking to one. The young guy in a softer voice told him, I am latino. Old guy somewhat surprised and toned down his rhetorics. Old guy left the movie half way.

It is a great mix of modern and classic film experiences. The history on display is impressive. Considering it is located on Sunset, the affordable public parking nearby is a considerable plus. This is my go to place to watch a movie in comfort and relax. This is especially true on holidays. There is no traffic and everyone who works there is friendly and shows excellent customer service. The ticket price is worth it for what you get. The concessions are nothing special and overpriced in my opinion, but that is the same almost everywhere.

This theatre is amazing! There is so much L.A history in this place that it takes you back in time. The seats are very comfortable and the space between you and the person next to you is very generous. There are regular size screens and also IMAX sized screens for your viewing pleasure. If you're into art there are several pieces that can be found in the theater. It has a historic yet fresh vibe to it and I loved it!

Great ambiance and a good selection of movie genres to choose from and offered a different array of movie snacks and beer. I order a jalapeno and cheese pretzel; but, I got a stale, over priced, raw dough in one area jalapeno and cheese pretzel. Took it back and got a fresh one but the dough was still a little under cooked in a small area. I won't be ordering that again. The popcorn was great, hot, buttery and just the right amount of salt. Hope next time my experience will be better.

ArcLight is a high quality theater offering an outstanding movie-going experience for anybody lucky enough to be able to visit one. Seats can be reserved online, so there is no worrying about sellout shows, waiting in lines, or getting stuck with seats you don't like. At the Hollywood location, the lobby is lovely and spacious and contains, on one side, a cafe which offers a well rounded menu and well stocked bar. The Hollywood location also sports a historic "Dome" theater, built in the mid twentieth century, which has been restored and is used for some of their 3D movies showings. The ArcLight theater seats are large and comfortable, and reserved at the time of purchase. If you are going with friends, and you really want to sit together, you may want to have one person get the tickets for the whole party in a single order to ensure you get adjacent seats. If you haven't been to an ArcLight theater and have the opportunity, I highly recommend it.

I’ve been to different Arclight Theaters and they’ve been amazing and so comfortable. This on the other hand has been the worse theater I’ve been too. For a $20 dollar ticket these seats are sooooo bad If it wasn’t for the Avengers I would of probably walked out Last time I come here

This was the best experience I’ve had at a movie theater in a very long time. Not too many people, plenty of leg room, comfortable seating and only one preview

Great for limited showings with a super intimate feel. I was surprised that they were showing one movie at a time, that was a cool touch. Will definitely be back.
