The original vintage theater has been restored and there is table service while you watch a movie. The seats are not arranged in a stadium style and are not super plush/reclining, so reserve a seat near the center. Seats in the front row are not too close to the screen.
There are rules (no texting, no talking, no arriving late). When you arrive, place an order for food/drinks. The popcorn is quite large and size of the beer and milkshakes are small. It is a bit awkward to eat a hamburger in the dark, but it was tasty. My favorite is the plain popcorn and pisco punch. It is very difficult to get water, so ask right away.

Love this place! Urban flowers has the freshest flowers, friendly staff, and good prices. They have an excellent selection of cut flowers, orchids, and branches. I especially like a more modern/casual bouquet and they always have something lovely for under $15. They also stock traditional bouquets for very good prices. Most importantly, the cut flowers last a long time. I was once disappointed when some daffodils only lasted a day and when I mentioned that during my next purchase, the owner gave me a fresh bunch for no charge. Urban Flowers appeared in the HBO series "Looking" as Bud's.

Pack N' Save grocery at the corner of 18th and Guerrero is my closest market. It is a family owned/operated business and the cashiers are friendly. Open 8am-midnight (or later). Excellent selection of ice cream and beer. Also good for liquor, milk, onions, and the basics. Lower prices than Bi-rite.

Expensive market with prepared foods and locally sourced specialty items. Good wine selection with reasonable prices. Excellent regional produce that is worth the $$$.

My favorite market. The selection is excellent and the prices are lower than whole foods/Bi-rite. There is a hot bar if you want a meal to go and the most comprehensive ice cream selection around.
