Alamo Drafthouse Cinema is dinner and a movie under one roof. There is a regular menu as well as specials to go with the theme of the night.

Owners Karrie and Tim League redefine the movie-watching experience. Their downtown theater is a haven for those who can appreciate quality independent productions and have fun with cult classics. Interactivity, theme nights, filmmaker and star appearances or forgoing a film to have a UT football viewing party are all normal behavior. Atypical theater fare fills the menu--pizzas with campy... more

Atypical theater fare fills the menu--pizzas with campy movie-related names like "Poultrygeist" Chicken Pesto complement bottles of Fat Tire or Anchor Porter.

Spawned by the comedic creators of Alamo's infamous and retired Sinus Show, Master Pancake Theater's live cast mocks a different plot-challenged movie each month.

Editorial Reviews from the web

Austin's eclectic downtown movie theater shows independent and classic films while serving beer, wine and a full dinner menu.

In Short Lovers of independent films, classic cinema and 20th century kitsch flock to Austin's flagship movie theater. Relocated from its original Warehouse District venue to the classic Ritz Theater, it continues to sate filmgoers with beer, wine and a full menu. Built in 1929, the building features two screens, allowing owners Tim and Karrie League to double the mayhem. Theme... more

An Audience of One Playing 3/30-3/31

The Alamo Drafthouse at the Ritz will be playing An Audience of One March 30th and 31st. It's a funny, yet chilling documentary about a pentacostal minister whose vision of a big budget film goes wrong. It's an intriuguing look into the lives of people whose faith drives them to do crazy things. It's an amazing film and is worth checking out this month.

It's fun to be downtown and the theater is arranged where there really isn't a bad seat. However, the service leaves a lot to be desired. The first time I chalked it up to an exception but since have found it is the norm. Waiters walk by several times and don't even notice your order sticking right where they tell you to put it! They're not even smart enough to realize that two people who... more

Quite An Experience

I really enjoy the Ritz Alamo. While it's not my favorite Alamo theater, is does has have it's own appeal. The screens and theaters are massive and sitttings in those seats makes you feel like you've traveled back in time to when going to the movies was a big event. They type of film they show is rather limited as they only have two screens, but it is well worth it to check out a film there.
