| - In the last year, my husband and I have discovered these new types of theaters that offer a luxury experience. We are regular patrons of the AMC Esplanade but wanted to try iPic for a date night. We loved it!
I thought the premium seats were the most comfortable about of all the luxury theaters we have tried. I am never going to a regular theater again. Ever. You have a blanket and pillow waiting for you when you buy the premium seats. My only complaints are the hand railing blocked some of the screen, and the recliners were not made for tall people. My husband is 6'5 and could not recline the seat, have his legs out straight, and not kick the head of the person in front of him. Oh, and one more complaint, I thought the menu could be a little bigger and offer a little more variety. I just wasn't wowed by the choice, they seemed very comparable to other theaters. The truffle fries, were delicious!
Our waiter got to us quickly and his service was excellent.
The prices for the tickets were a little pricey ($54) but the food and drinks were $46 with tip. So we figured that would be close to the total of a dinner at an upscale restaurant.
We got to iPic like 10 minutes before our movie started so we didn't have time to sit around and have some drinks before, but the bar next door looked pretty cool. I noticed the typical Scottsdale crowd, so IDK if I'd venture over there anyway. Maybe!
Overall, I enjoyed the experience and we will definitely be back!
