Alamo Drafthouse Cinema Montecillo

Went for a fundraising event. We decided to open a bar tab (with cash.... I know I know that was a stupid move) and they closed down my tab, since I left plenty of money, and kept the change without even asking if I'd like another drink BEFORE said tab was closed. Regardless I assume the big "tip" was appreciated. Honestly, I would have probably been fine with the large tip if I had been ASKED. Look we ALL have to work harder for the dollar now days. Just ask instead of assuming. You'll be surprised how many people like ME tip big when treated appropriately. You don't have to be sly and "hope" I had enough and you assume I didn't mind you "keeping the change". Other than that leaving me in my feelings, it's a nice clean establishment and nice staff.

I came here for the very first time last month when my co-worker invited me and some of other co-workers to Tuesday Trivia Night :D ! Out of the 2 Alamo Drafthouse cinema locations in El Paso, only the west side location offers Trivia Night every Tuesday. We hope that this will eventually change, and that this will be offered at the east side location in the future so we don't always have to drive to the west side :) ! My co-worker who organized this started organizing these get-togethers so we could all really bond and have some fun outside work :D ! Even though we didn't really know the answers to a lot of the questions, we still had such a funtastic and fantabulous time :D !! It's a great way to socialize, bond with friends and family, and meet new people :) ! Everyone is really friendly and engaging :D ! You can order drinks, actual meal food, and finger food at great prices :) ! It's important to get there early, ideally by 6:30 pm, on a Tuesday for trivia night so you can snag a table for you and your group. Each trivia team can only have a max of 6 people each. The winners get free movie tickets to the Alamo Drafthouse :D !! I didn't get to snap photos for my first time at Trivia Night there because I was completely enraptured in my first time experience :) ! Haha :D ! But I hope to snap and share photos next time ;) !

Came in for trivia for my birthday! Very cool environment! The food was delicious too and the service was top notch! Highly reccomend checking that out!

A good movie experience. There are well placed tables so that you can enjoy dinner, snacks, or drinks during the movie. We shared the breakfast tacos, mimosa glass, and white wine glass. It was a bit pricey and the food was just okay. The mimosa did not necessarily taste like champagne and it did not necessarily taste like orange juice - honestly it seemed a bit watered down. The wine was good. The breakfast tacos came with 3 and were stuffed with a medley of flavors most of which complemented one another well. I did add some salsa which was provided with the plate. The salsa was good, not too spicy, but not too bland. I will try other dishes on a revisit. As my first impression I would say the food is moderate. The cinema / dining experience is nice. I enjoyed the comfy seats. I visited with a friend who needed handicap accessibility and honestly this cinema was the most accommodating EVER! We showed up late to the movie but the host welcomed us in and quickly allowed us to be seated with a rollaway chair that allowed the wheelchair to slide right in next to my cinema seat. This may seem odd, but as there does not seem to be security at the door I found the set up a little strange to just walk into a movie. Perhaps the security has a stronger behind the scenes presence. In the times we live I do want to feel safe when sitting in a large dark room for over an hour. I will revisit 3.26.22 Update My eating companions and I had: burger, chicken sandwich, pesto pizza, bottomless popcorn, chips and queso, fried pickles, and Boozy Brandy Alexander Milkshake. We all agree the food is not the shining star but Our seats rocked but did not have reclining abilities.

Food was awesome menus are kinda limited but simple love the old films and posters service was outstanding 9.5 / 10 would come again

Alamo Drafthouse Cinema Montecillo on the west side of El Paso, TX, seems to be a hidden location, and if it weren't because of the GPS, I would likely pass it three times before making it to the theater. Other than that, the place rocks. I love their website, food choices, seats, staff, decor, prices, and everything! I enjoy the overall concept of the franchise, and this location rocks it. The website is straightforward to navigate, clearly explains the exact seat location you are purchasing, and it is easy to specify how many children and adults. Once you arrive, their seats are very comfortable, and if this is your first time there, the staff is always willing to explain how to order. Their prices are affordable, which makes it much more welcoming to come back. Their food is delicious, especially their parmesan popcorn. I have noticed they usually start the movie 30 minutes after the start time, but I enjoy it because you can sit and get comfortable with the menu and place your order of food and drinks ahead of time. The cinema's sound quality is also outstanding.

I enjoy the food service and the respect the ability to kick noise makers from the cinema. The location is clean and I have enjoyed going on all four occasions.

My wife and I attended the Thurs, 8/17 screening of Landscape and Invisible Hand, 7:30pm at Montecillo. 20 minutes into the actual movie already playing, another party walks in and was disruptive taking their seats, looking at the menus (using their phone flashlights), and talking. Alamo has a very clear policy, "In order to ensure the highest quality experience for all guests, you may not enter a movie after it has started." But nobody prevented them from coming in 20 minutes after the movie started and nobody had them leave. I am puzzled by this. Alamo has this policy, but apparently it is not enforced. This caused us to be disrupted while watching the movie. (Separately, these people had other points during the movie that they were talking and/or had phone flashlights on, and had the film been longer, we would have notified our server). But it concerns me that Alamo makes a big deal about their policies, but does not enforce them. We come to Alamo for a disruption-free movie experience, and we did not have that yesterday because Alamo did not enforce its policy about not being able it enter a movie after it started. I write this in the hopes that either your theaters will strictly enforce this policy, or remove the policy. Alamo financially benefits from these policies (because people like us bring our business there for a disruption-free experience), so it needs to actually enforce them.I contacted them directly (through facebook message which they acknowledged receipt of), and told them I would not take this elsewhere as long as they resolved this with me. But they never even gave me the courtesy of a response.

So excited to see an Alamo Drafthouse in El Paso!! By far my favorite movie theater ever. Food is great, the servers are great and I just love the clips they show before your movie. Honestly the best movie theater EVVVERRRRR. BOTTOMLESS POPCORN YALL!!!

Beautiful theater excellent service if they made a mistake they made sure the customer was happy. The theater sound is amazing I love the food, tables, and staff. I recommend going in the summer the most amazing.
