# Downtown Cinemas – A Hidden Gem in Las Vegas Movie Theaters

Downtown Cinemas, located at 814 S 3rd St, Las Vegas, NV, is a unique independent movie theater that offers a cozy and intimate viewing experience. Known for its comfortable recliner seating and a selection of first-run films often not shown elsewhere, this venue has quickly become a favorite among local moviegoers. With a focus on community and customer service, Downtown Cinemas has garnered positive reviews for its friendly staff and reasonable prices, making it an appealing choice for both casual viewers and cinema enthusiasts alike. The theater's history as a former art house adds to its charm, creating a space where film lovers can enjoy a more personalized experience.

My fiancé and I are huge movie goers, and enjoy being at the theater. We've been to Regal Edwards, Harkins, AMC and a few other private theaters but ho, this is one of the nicest theaters I've been to that's privately owned. So simple, very clean, and the seats are comfortable. Food is great, drinks are even better! The staff is super friendly! Amazing experience and not bad for the price. We support local theaters and we hope everyone can give this theater the chance it deserves!

What a find. Recliner seats. First run movies, many of which aren't shown elsewhere. Hard to find, It's on the second floor of a poorly marked building. But the reward, since it's hard to find is it's like a private screening. Nobody there. My new favorite movie theater.

Once you get to the auditorium everything is fine. The seats are comfortable, the projection is good... but EVERYTHING on the way is a struggle. Impossible to find, second floor, no signage, no employees, and once you discover the elevator it's just a big, bleak, empty white space. Whatever happened to "the show starts on the sidewalk"? This venue has zero soul and zero flash - in a town built on razzmatazz.

The movie theater was incredible aside for the fact you do have to go and get your food and drinks from the front . The chairs are comfortable, and the staff is kind. The only issue I had was, it seemed as if the staff was a bit lazy because the whole walkway up the staircase was completely trashed and there were employees standing around doing nothing for about 10+ minutes when I walked in . The facility could've been better maintained and ownership probably needs to keep a better eye on that! They do play great movies!

The prices are reasonable and the service is fantastic and friendly. It's a smaller independent theater with a great, casual atmosphere. Highly recommend!

My husband and I used to LOVE coming here when it was Art Houz. Today we decided to go to the now 'Downtown Cinemas'. Theater's are still nice with the comfiest chairs in town, although this is the 1st time we got to our seats and the reclining buttons were broken on both of our seats. Lucky for us, we had the entire theater to ourselves, so we tried out chairs until we finally found a set where both recliners worked. Chairs are clearly not maintained anymore. They also messed up the ticket counter & concessions. You used to check-in downstairs where you either purchase tickets or they'd scan your barcode for pre-purchased seats and print your tickets. Concessions used to also only be available at your seat; you'd scan the QR code and a staff member would deliver drinks/food directly to you. They even had some wonderful gourmet food options. This is no longer the case... Tickets & concessions are now combined into 1 tiny desk area upstairs outside the restaurant with 1 lady scanning tickets and 1 lady grabbing popcorn. No more in-seat waiter service. Concessions are now reduced to stereotypical eats you'd get at AMC or Regal. (PS: Worst popcorn; overly salty & not fully popped so it's super crunchy & kernel-y). Seems wildly inefficient as there was a line of people from the restaurant/brunch area in the ticket/concession line to buy snacks and drinks, causing movie goers to wait to have our ticket barcode scanned; we barely made it into our assigned theater on time because of this. I don't know why people there for brunch were having to get snacks & drinks from the same counter movie goers had to go to, but it was weird and slow moving. I should've taken pictures of this weird new check-in/concession area, but alas I did not. Needless to say, I can see why we were the only ones in the theater for our movie. The charm of this theater is completely gone. We'll be sticking to AMC from now on; similar comfy chairs, ample parking, and closer to home. No desire to drive 30 minutes to Downtown Cinemas anymore :-/

We have never been to this theater before and thought it was closed because the hours posted was a half hour earlier. We were the first ones in once the doors were unlocked and met Alex. She was absolutely so friendly, helpful, courteous, sold us our tickets, cashier for the food concession, and delivered our food and drinks to us at our seats while running the whole theater. We have never encountered such efficiency at any theater. We were so amazed with her positive energy and attitude that we need to give Alex a 5-star rating.

Very comfortable seating, chairs recline and the staff is great. They have a hot food menu, The Chicken Sandwiches are awesome here!

Great place to see a movie. Friendly, caring staff--unbelievable that I'm saying this about a movie theater. Covered parking. Reasonable prices. Comfy seats. The place is a little gem.

This is a nice little hidden cinema. We went for Mother's Day and they gave my mother and my wife a free popcorn for being mothers. I thought that was very nice. They also bring the food to you in the theater after you order. I appreciated the free parking as well! Very hard to find that downtown nowadays. They were also playing a movie that other theaters weren't playing so that is a plus!
