If something is wrong with my order, what do I do?

If something is wrong with my order, what do I do?

Servers will do “check backs” which is a verbal question posed asking if you received all of your ordered items. Any time throughout the service you can notify an employee that there is a problem with your food/drink by simply pressing the call button just as you would if placing an order. They will rectify a situation from that point and ask any questions if needed. Our main objective is to provide unobtrusive service, delicious made to order food and a first rate film experience. As that is the case we will attempt to prevent as much verbal dialogue as possible when attending to orders, problematic or otherwise.
