I have only visited this location as a guest of Yelp for an elite event. So I will grant it 4 stars as that is a special event and probably not indicative of a nightly occurance and want to visit again before I put the 5th star up there.
I will say, hands down, that I was very very very impressed.
The staff was friendly and accommodating and by staff I mean every single person I came in contact with. The building itself is updated, the seats are very comfortable, the food is excellent.
I would recommend this to anyone who has kids, and is trying to get out of the house for a date night. Babysitters can be expensive, so why not combine the dinner w/ the movie. Hang out afterwords at the bar for a last glass of wine or beer, play a game of pool or listen to some live music. All at the same building we used to sneak into in High School (Providence High - Go Panthers!).
One thing I hate about going to the movies is spending $170 and getting popcorn and a diet coke that is so large my bladder bursts at the least opportune time. Not the problem at Cinebarre.
I took a gander at the full menu last night once I got home, and I feel that it is accurately priced for both food and beverage. I love the concept, it's not as pricey, inconvenient, or stuffy as Mez. They did a great job coming up with movie friendly food that tastes great. I like fine cuisine, but struggling with any utensil that isn't my fingers is not what I want to do while watching a movie, so for this, their menu is perfect.
I don't know what their plans are, or how many converted theatres they have available but this to me SCREAMS - "SPORTS!!!"
Love the concept of getting a "bucket" of beers.
I would be showing Duke v. Carolina, Panthers games when they are in the playoffs this year (I said it), Bobcats games when they are in the plaaaaa... nevermind. But a huge screen showing the "BIG" game with sports friendly foods and beer and wine.. umm yes please!
The only thing I would add would be a tap light style system under the counter top so people can see what they are writing/reading without busting out the mobile phone.
Other than that. Keep up the good work, we'll be seeing you soon.
