As someone who hails from LA where we’re supposed to have the ‘biggest and bestest’ of everything – including theaters – I gotta tell ya, AMC Mainstreet TOTALLY RULES!!!

I was in KC last year and got to see “Paranormal Activity 2″ from the comfort of one of those “rumble seats”. OMG! OMG! OMG! That was truly ’something else!’ I n-e-a-r-l-y d-i-e-d o-f f-r-i-g-h-t!!!

The sound effects in that theater are just amazing. In fact, the whole experience was amazing. I am short-sighted and really appreciated the fact that I coudl ring up from my hotel room and book a specific seat – right in the center of the theater itself.

Love your video by the way – you did that well

Service is awful. We stood by the hostess table for a good 5 minutues before anyone seated us. We had to wait another 10 to 15 minutes before we even saw our waitress for the first time. Her excuse was “sorry, we’re just really busy”…..when they clearly were not, there were plenty of empy booths. You are understaffed, not busy, there is a difference. After we got done eating our “food” It took her another 15 mintues to take our money – and when she finally came back she miscalculated the change.

The food is something I cooked in 3rd grade. Everything we ate was either a) awful or b) really awful. First off, I know this is a “bar”, but when you are also a Mexican restaraunt you should have free chips and salsa, the fact that we had to pay almost 5.00 for chips and salsa is insane. What’s also insane is that they have an item on the menu called “the guacamole bar”, which is nothing more than a small bowl of awful quacamole for 8.00 – the description talks about “fresh ingredients, mixed by hand at your table”…..BS. Its store bought awfulness that you get to pay 8 bucks for.

For our main course of awfulness we all had their tacos. Two of us had their chicken tacos, one had beef and the other had their steak. The steak tacos actually looked good because they were real handmade tacos with actual incredients besides the meat. The chicken tacos were something you could buy at Sams Club that you take home and deep fry. They were a closed shell taco, almost like an empinada. Inside the taco was just chicken, thats it. No cheese, lettuce, tomato, just bland overcooked chicken. The rice and beans also had no seasoning. The beef tacos were just a deep fried shell with hamburger meat inside – again, no cheese, lettuce, tomato, etc….served with another side of bland, out of a can refried beans and rice.

I understand that people go to this kind of place to get drunk and dance like idiots on Saturday night. But when you are open on a Sunday night and you are advertising your food you should at least have average food to serve to people. This was a far below everage experience and I will never be returning. Its amazing to me that places like this can stay open – I am assuming they are staying open due to the 21 to 24 year old d-bag crowd that P&L thrives on…..or they are just taking a loss each year and being subsidized by my tax dollars. Either way this place needs to close and something else needs to go in there.
