Enter the Scene

As I headed up the sidewalk on 2733 Calloway Drive in Bakersfield with my siblings, I knew that I was in for a surprise to a place I have never been before. Pushing the doors open, the glass on them begun to shimmer from the light fixtures and cause my eyes to immediately travel around inside the building. This happens to be the Studio Movie Grill!

​There were huge luminous screens displaying movie previews; ticket machines for online buyers; and a small, snazzy bar. I knew for a fact that my siblings and I went to the movies at the best time because there wasn’t a painfully long line to buy tickets nor any crowded concession stands around.

Delicious Food

As I hand my ticket to one of the workers, I made my way down the hall and took a right and passed the kitchen, where the aroma of freshly prepared popcorn made my stomach rumble.
Finally arriving at my theater room, I found my way to my seat.            

Inside the theater room, the seats were built with more than enough leg-room, along with a built-in table.
Each seat was so well spaced out, that you couldn’t see the people in front of you eating or worry about the back row dropping something on you.

​While I waited for the movie to begin, a waiter came up to me and handed me a menu.  When I looked over it a couple of times. This was something I wasn't expecting to do at a movie theater. After I ordered my food, a few minutes later, the food arrived just in time for the movie to start!

Quality
​

The smell of fresh chicken strips had entered the air and I couldn’t wait for the food to cool down. When I took a bite, I immediately knew that it was one of the best chicken strips I have ever had! The way its juicy flavor traveled through my taste buds made my full mouth go for a second bite instantly. Looking for the next piece, I used my phone light and discovered the chicken tenders not only tasted amazing, but looked delicious as well!  
As I ate and watched, I thought I was in my living room back home.

Experience

One of the best part of my experience into the theaters were the short animated films we watch such as the Oscar-winning short film, Hair Love. This particular film was interesting to me because of how the hair family brought the family together. The ending of the short film took me by surprise and was kind of emotional. When Hair Love ended, the main film began to play, Jumanji 2 the Next Level. After the movie, my siblings and I left to go pay for our food bill which went a little over thirty dollars, but it was totally worth the price. 

All in all, the experience was a 10 out of 10, however, the prices were more of a 5. You do get your money’s worth, but I would save this type of experience for special occasions. It would definitely be good for a date, but if you’re bringing a family, I would make sure to take some extra cash. I had brought my brother and sister along for my experience and really enjoyed my time there.
