    Good Luck with that. I just looked at the menu and I would not know what to tell you except salad with little dressing. I don't know if I could do it. Maybe don't eat all day and just go for it!
  • we went once and they had an awesome fruit platter with some cheese and crackers on it too.

    I've been to the one on Holcomb Bridge near Atlanta a few times. There's not really much for low cal on the menu. There are the Coconut Chicken Tenders, and they do a Cereal crusted chicken tender, those are both baked, and really don't have that much carb added. I don't think you will find any Salt friendly stuff, though.

    I am going to the one on Holcomb Bridge too. I was looking at the fruit platter, or the citrus salad with dressing on the side. i also saw the spinach quesadilla.

    I have gone and enjoyed it, but to be frank about it, I don't think it is worth it.

    The food is at or slightly below the quality of something like TGIFridays or Applebees, and at a slightly higher price point. I don't think the theater potion itself is more expensive than any other, but you do get more space, which is important to a big guy like me.

    I can see going there if you don't have time for dinner, so you can combine 2 activities into one, but if you have time, I would rather go to dinner separately, and then have a bigger selection of screen times.

    I would feel differently if this place was more like the Alamo Drafthouse in Austin, but they really don't have events with interesting menus here ever. Virtually the only events they do are horror movie combos, which is not a favorite of mine. The Alamo Drafthouse does things like a "Ghostbusters Quote-a-long" and other fun things. And their food is better.

    I don't mean to be so negative, it's a good time, I just think it could be better for the price.

    Let us know how it goes!
