We had a great time watching the movie under the stars with a great view of the Dallas skyline! There are not many offerings for food/concession offerings (one food truck and very small concession stand), so I recommend bringing your own to save money/not have to go to the trailer to pick up. The concession stand has the standard overpriced movie theater offerings. Overall sound quality and image quality is good considering the location is downtown right next to 75. We will bring a portable radio next time for better sound quality. The staff is all very nice and knowledgeable and they offer jump starts after the movie if you drain your battery. I gave four stars, because the movie selection is very old and most drive ins offer a double feature in ticket price. They also recently changed their pricing structure based on the number of people in your vehicle vs. location to the screen. It actually became cheaper for couples, but if you are going with your family, be aware.

Wow I had high hopes for this drive in but it was simply unorganized and uncomfortable. Coming and expecting cool food trucks? Nope. We were told upon arrival the food trucks were not there but they had food combos! The combos you ask? Sodas and popcorn that’s it. So good luck if you come hungry expecting food go to McDonald’s across the street. The car in front of us had their brights on the entire time pointed right at us because they were sitting in their trunk. Not a single employee said a single word to them the entire movie. Because these bright lights where pointed directly in front of us we could not see the movie at all blinded by their lights. They say to turn on your hazards to call an attendant over, we had ours on for over 15 minutes and not a single soul came. I’d finally had enough and got out of my car to find someone. They were just standing in the back talking to each other and seemed very annoyed that I asked. They went up to the car and left and the car continued to have their lights on. 15 minutes later they come back with some cloth to put over the cars lights, not even 5 minutes later the cloth fell off and we were blinded again. By this time so much of the movie had gone by no one was able to enjoy. Horrible experience definitely would not come again and not recommend to anyone. If you’re going to see a movie you’d expect to actually be able to see the movie right? The screen is tiny so if you’re parked 3 rows back good luck seeing. The movie glitched and skipped several times as if I was watching a scratched DVD.

We had a great time seeing Legally Blonde here. We got here early and got a spot in the second row, giving us a great view of the screen. They provide a slip with rules and a QR code to their concessions checkout, which made it super easy. Concession pricing was fairly reasonable and it was fun to watch the movie in this format. They even offer to jump the battery of anyone who gets stranded if they drain it!

A various collection of movies are here. Order tickets online and then kick back and watch the show. You can even get free popcorn with a review! The trick is to arrive early and make sure to have a working radio on hand: your phone will not work! Tune in on FM radio or bring a portable one, and cozy up with a friend or two!

Had a great time watching movie under the stars. There were not too many food offerings, only one food truck and concession stand. The food truck hit it out of the park. It was sliders but the burgers were pretty sizable and the quality equaled any respectable burger joint. The concession stand had the standard offerings of soda, water, popcorn, and candy. I saw some reviews from local residents about traffic issues caused by this venue. I didn't encounter any when we went so it seems they have corrected the issue.

This is such a cute use of a giant field in downtown Dallas. We went for one of the Christmas movies and it was great. They set up the cars really nicely so everyone has a good view of the screen. The toilets were not disgusting and I loved being able to order snacks on my phone from the concession stand.

Best (and only?) place to safely see a movie near downtown Dallas. Enjoyable experience and I liked being able to see the Dallas skyline during the movie.

Visited the drive in with a girlfriend and we had a wonderful time. Our show started at 9:45pm We got there about 45 minutes early to get in line and we ended up being the fist in line. The staff was extremely kind, knowledgeable and helpful. The only reason for the omission of 1 star was the port o potties. For 35/car I was hoping for the nicer portable restrooms with sinks. They were clean though.
