Fork n' Film LA

I have a fork n film membership and have gone to over 40 shows at this point and absolutely recommend everyone to go at least once. The food is always delicious, the staff is literally amazing and make you feel so welcomed, the vibes are immaculate and it’s so nice to experience childhood favorite movies in a way that has never been done before. I take all my friends and family when they visit to a show if they don’t have one in their city because it’s such a fun and unique experience!

Amazing amazing event. I love fork and film. I went to watch Hocus Pocus last year with my mom and believe me she never likes going out but she’s been asking to go to another movie ever since. I’ve already booked a ticket for Princess and the Frog so excited to go!!

I have been to 5 Fork n’ Film movies thus far (NY City). My daughter introduced it to me when she wanted to go to see Shrek for her birthday. I first thought the ticket price was a little too expensive, but understood once I experienced the concept. The movie with food and drinks associated with scenes on the screen is incredible! The food and drinks are impressive and taste great, they even accommodate food allergies! The staff are amazing and make you feel right at home! I took my husband (for an anniversary gift) and girlfriend (for her birthday) and they really enjoyed the experience!! Looking forward to my next one. ❤️😊 @FORKNFILM

Loved my experience I went to go see Alice in Wonderland and honestly it was awesome. The food was absolutely amazing and the servers were great. I loved this experience. I didn’t really watch the movie much because I was distracted by the food, but the food was amazing lol

The experience with Fanil was the most incredible film experience we have ever had! Not only was the food good but it was presented in such fun ways inside books and rose shaped glasses to go with the beauty and beast movie we saw. The food came timed with the Film! So a different special moments they brought out another treat. There was so much food when the final course came we couldn’t even touch it. We were so full, but we had to take a couple bites of dessert! Cannot wait to go back! This experience is great for kids and adults alike!

I’ve gone to a handful of fork n film experiences and they have all been nothing but fun! The food is amazing both classic and vegan menus! You need to experience it at least once

I haven't stopped raving about fork n film to all of my friends back home 🤣 it was the coolest movie watching experience I've ever had - my friend who lives in CA brought me to see Ratatouille! I loved the speakeasy vibe & decor! The food was SO good - and I'm not an adventurous eater. I'm like a chicken tender and fries girl 🤣 There was nothing served that I didn't love. And the staff was the best! I've never seen a group of people who love their jobs so much and make their customers feel like family/friends. The whole day was amazing. It was on of the top things I've done out in CA on any of my trips!! I can't wait to come back!

Do Not Waste Your Money. Here is the email I wrote them. I have researched and I’m not the only one who had such a poor experience. I’m starting to wonder if it’s a scam. For over $400, for 2 people, save yourself some money and go to a nice restaurant and watch the movie at another theater. Not in my email but I forgot to add we paid for table 10 and that’s what was on my ticket, but they moved us tables by/behind a pillar, for an influencer to sit in our table. Curious if they paid. My email: Hi Fork n Film team, I first want to start by saying how excited I was for this event! The idea of nostalgic movies and an awesome meal is so cool. We arrived early, and the musicians were great. From there however, everything went downhill. These tickets are not cheap, so when purchasing, you are paying for the premium food and drinks to make up for it. To say the least, the food was a 0/10 and the drinks were a 2/10. The pork ribs were insanely dry, I was chewing for minutes. The pie had too much of a vinegar taste. The Mac and cheese was one solid chunk. The waiter took the one drink we liked away because we couldn’t understand what she was trying to ask us. In terms of venue, the wall glade plug ins are too strong and the air was warm. I was extremely sad that this was our experience, especially because I’ve waited over 3 years to spend the money on this experience, especially for my birthday. I am happy to leave a review online but understanding this is operated by a young couple, I’d like to give the opportunity to make this right. To spend over $400 dollars on dry pork ribs, bad drinks, and solid Mac n cheese, my ask is for a full refund. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you, Christine Anderson

I loved the concept of Fork N' Film so I was excited to finally book this experience. I attended the Princess and the Frog film and really enjoyed the experience. Each dish that appeared in the film came out on-time and was HOT!! The food overall was flavorful and was presented in a creative way. I also loved the themed cocktails. They tasted great and had a nice kick. Even the popcorn was made fresh to order, which is rare to find these days at most theaters. Overall I had a great experience!!

After the issues from our first trip to Fork n Film we were granted free tickets to a show of our choice and finally decided to check out the Grinch. Paid a little bit to get first row seating and the view was great and the service was much better. Quickly served all meals and always checked in on. Menu ideas were creative but not as good as the Ratatouille options. Veggie garbage- veggies for the most part were undercooked, savory pudding trio was interesting, roast beast was huge and I was already stuffed by then. Overall Ratatouille's food options were better, but service was much better for Grinch. No matter what Fork N Film is such a unique experience and definitely a must try, even once!

Gave out free tickets Then took them back.... What a joke My wife and I were super excited Had already gotten our stay planned Didn't even offer tickets at a discount or accommodate in any way As if they don't even care for their customers

Fork N Film Review: A Disappointing Experience Before It Even Began I was beyond excited when I finally managed to get tickets to Fork N Film, held at The Republic Hotel in San Diego, California. It is difficult to score a spot at this event. I always have my notifications on, and every time tickets drop, I try to get in. After several months of trying, I couldn't believe my luck when I not only secured tickets but also used a promo code for a free ticket. I immediately forwarded the information to my partner, who was also able to snag a ticket. We were both thrilled to be going to see The Princess and the Frog at this unique event. We forwarded the information to his sister but within just two minutes, all the promo codes were gone. This wasn't surprising, given how difficult it is to grab a ticket much less a promo. Then, disappointment struck. The next day, an email arrived stating that there had been a "glitch" and that someone would be reaching out once they figured out the issue. Today, I received a call informing me that because of this glitch, all tickets purchased during a specific two-minute window were being canceled. While the event is clearly popular, I was told that thousands of promo codes had gone out in that short two minute window, which seems highly unlikely. What's even more frustrating is that no alternative offer was made--no BOGO deal, no discount, nothing. Just a simple, "There was a glitch." Frustrated, I started reading other reviews and checking out their website, and what I found was even more concerning. Customer service has a terrible reputation. Tickets are non-refundable, non-transferable, and can't even be rescheduled in advance if something comes up. The Instagram comments are filled with complaints about the overall experience -attendees saying that for nearly $500 per couple, the event is underwhelming, the food is mediocre, and reaching customer service is nearly impossible. It's becoming clear that many of the glowing reviews likely come from influencers rather than real customers. While the concept of Fork N Film at The Republic Hotel is creative and has potential, the poor customer service, lack of service recovery, and overall execution leave much to be desired.

If you know Joe (my fiancé) and I, then you know how much we love the movie "White Chicks". So when I saw Fork N' Film was having a showing of the movie I just HAD to get Joe and I tickets. Like most of you who have heard of this business, I found out about it on instagram and immediately fell in love with the concept. You watch a movie and simultaneously eat the food you see in the movie?! Count me in! This is the stuff millennials are made for! We arrived about 30 minutes before showtime, as the confirmation email had informed us that's when the doors opened. I wanted to wash my hands upon arrival so I made my way to the bathroom where I was immediately met with a terrible smell and no hand soap in any of the dispensers. I walked out and waited for Joe, who had went to use the men's bathroom. When he came out he has asked me if I had seen the person who exited before him and if he worked there. I answered yes to both and disgustingly he stated "He didn't wash his hands..." I was super grossed out but tried to push the thought out of my mind. Maybe he had hand sanitizer? Maybe he wouldn't be handling food? I literally tried to think any thought other than what Joe had witnessed as we had just arrived and I really wanted to have a good time. I think it's important to note I paid for VIP tickets, which was a big price jump from the standard seating. I thought this would mean maybe we'd have an extra round of food, or maybe something complimentary. All it meant was that our table was closest to the screen. I wish I knew that before dropping over $500 for these tickets. As far as the food goes, I was disappointed. The first thing we were given was a small bowl of popcorn. It was the saltiest popcorn I had ever eaten in my life. Then was the Niçoise salad which lacked dressing and was very small. The next course didn't even make sense. It was called "pure vanilla ice cream" and the corresponding scene had vanilla ice cream in it, but what was served was a parsnip soup. Lastly, I couldn't even tell you what the next course tasted like, but I can say I hated it. Titled "the b*tch fit", you can see in the picture of the menu I added what it consisted of. I took a bite and left the rest right there on the plate. The main of short ribs was cool the penne pasta it came with was flavorless and overcooked. Again, for what I paid I was expecting a lot more. The concept is great but the execution just didn't cut it for me. I don't think I will be back for this until there is a revamp. The best part of the experience was watching the movie with other fellow White Chicks lovers. We all laughed like it was the first time we were watching it :)

Today was my second time going to Fork N' Film, my first time being Ratatouille. Today was White Chicks. I thoroughly enjoyed the Ratatouille experience, so decided to do a double-date this second time around. It was not good. The food was gross. For $200 a person, the food was almost inedible. It tasted microwaved- lukewarm and kinda just thrown together. The drinks were also not good- strong but not well-crafted. I'm confused by this- the company reiterates that they love food and love movies, but how can you serve this kind of food? It's so bad. Like cafeteria food, but worse. I am embarrassed and feel bad that I raved about it to our friends, and this was the experience. Not sure if it has anything to do with the rapid growth of the company, but they can't seem to maintain their quality as they scale. Extremely unfortunate, because this was a good concept. I do not recommend whatsoever. I recommend going out to a nice restaurant, then watching a movie (even the Fork N' Film movies if you want) at home. Or the movie theater. Fork N' Film is a big waste of money and does not serve good quality food. Like the stories of Fyre Festival, if you will..

I need to preface this by saying that I was a guest and didn't pay for my ticket. BUT, after my experience, I totally would and even looked into getting a membership of my own. The movie was Home Alone and it was held at a beautiful hotel in Dana Point. When we arrived, we were given a glass of champagne and a welcome cocktail. We were then given some popcorn to share as a snack. I loved the entire thing. The food was paired with the movie: pizza in a little delivery box when they got pizza delivery, mac and cheese (with lobster) when Kevin was eating mac and cheese, etc. The drinks were super cute -- one came in a silver garbage can with a tiny shovel of coconut "snow" when they were shoveling snow on screen. When the firecrackers went off, they served a dish with a sparkler. I had the best time, and I wouldn't hesitate to go again. I definitely recommend it for date night or a special occasion or even for something different to do.

Definitely had a better experience the second time around. Thanks Fork N' Film for making it better. The venue was nicer and accommodated everyone with all of their needs so I didn't have to move this time so I appreciate that. And that's always. The food was fine with the video. But there was way too many sweets and not enough actual food, the lion King was much better proportioned and organized with food to dessert ratio. Unfortunately, this one fell short. There was too many desserts and not enough actual food to justify the price of these tickets and not feeling full. But these are definitely a fun experience, and I see why they sell out the minute they're up for purchase.

For this movie, we got our tickets at full price. And then later on, they were offered at a nice discount that couldn't be retroactively applied to us. I thought oh well, it's fine, we're just there for the experience. At least the food will be excellent. Or so I thought. Check in was easy, we were led to our seats by the friendliest folks. A darling of a man named Tommy waited on us and made sure we were cared for. We got our complimentary popcorn and champagne and waited for the movie to start. Since it was Halloween, we saw Nightmare Before Christmas. The pumpkin bread with apple butter was scrumptious. But it was downhill from there. The green curry was too sweet and it was mostly sauce. I don't think there was any meat in it. The miso cod had very little flavor - and it was massively disappointing because I know how to make this correctly, as this is one of my no-brainer dishes when I want to cook something healthy and fast. The drink was overly sweet, even when I added water to it. I didn't like it at all. The beef pastry was mostly dough and had only beef fat inside. I felt so let down because I smelled how buttery the pastry was! And yet it was so dry and crumbly. The ratio of meat to pastry was way off. The dessert was good, it was a cake that you decorate with icing. But as I was too full, I just took it to go. The matcha latte that came with it had too much cinnamon and was way too bitter. I really, really wanted to give this experience 5 stars because of our last encounter with the Fork n Film folks...Ratatouille was magical! But it felt like, for this movie, because it was discounted significantly, the deliciousness of everything got tapered down too. I did not get the full value of what I paid. Be that as it may, I still recommend this for those who haven't experienced Fork n Film. I suggest googling the menu for whatever film you intend to see to ensure palatability. For me, I'm not going to attend another one of these unless Im absolutely certain the food will be good...after all, $199 per person is no joke.

This is a unique and fun date night activity for couples, families, and/or friends to do. We went for their Lady and the Tramp screening in collaboration with Disney's D23 Fan Club. For those who don't know what Fork N' Film is, it is an immersive experience where you watch a movie and while watching you get to enjoy dishes and drinks inspired by the movie. We were served 8 dishes and cocktails (could be mock-tails if you don't drink) during the course of the movie. They will serve the food/drink at the same time the inspiration for the food/drink comes up in the movie. We definitely enjoyed the experience. The dishes and drinks were clever and tasted good. They also gave complimentary champagne when you walked into the movie/dining room and served us with some popcorn to enjoy while waiting for the movie to start and during the movie in between dishes (if you have the space for it) Our server was super sweet and really gave us time and attention throughout the screening. There are very few seats per screening so you don't feel crowded and as their website claims, anywhere you sit, you will get to have an immersive experience. So you don't have to get the front row or the VIP seats if you want to save some money. It's not cheap by any means to begin with, so be ready to pay some $$$ for this food and movie. Is it worth it for its price? I'd say yes for the amount of food you get to enjoy throughout the movie. This is a great idea! I applaud the creative team behind this. Will I go to another one? For sure, especially when they start screening at their Orange County CA venue. If you like movies and enjoy immersive experiences, I highly recommend this event for you. One downside of it, as this was a Disney D23 event, we were hoping for something special from the D23 fan club at this event but there were none :(

I had such a cool experience at Fork N Film in NYC yesterday! The location was nice (in the "club" area of a hotel), the servers were friendly and the food was really good. They also had live music in the beginning which I thought was a really nice touch. Even though it is a bit expensive I definitely think it's worth it to do once in a while.

One of the best experiences I've had. The cost is pricey but definitely well worth it to experience at least once in life. We watched the classic Hocus Pocus. The food was well thought out and enjoyable. My sister and I celebrated our birthday and as a gift they gave complimentary drinks and extra sparklers in our dessert to celebrate. Our location was in a rooftop; we were a little scared about being cold but it worked out to be perfect. I thought on website they offered to sale blankets there but I was mistaken. The only food that I felt they lacked in creativity and flavor was the dessert. The brownie which was suppose to be the book seemed to be a cosmic brownie with lots of icing. Drinks were strong and unable to finish. I would definitely want to see another movie and see what they offer for the menu.

I attended the "Mean Girls" showing on Saturday, March 1st. Unfortunately, the evening began on a confusing note. We rushed to arrive by 6 PMbased on an email from a support staff member, only to discover we were four hours early. While I understand that this may have been a miscommunication, it set a negative tone for the rest of our experience. Regrettably, I cannot say I had a great time. For the amount spent on tickets, the service we received was disappointing. Additionally, I incurred an extra $80 in parking fees that were unnecessary, and the lack of an apology for the oversight was quite appalling. Throughout the evening, I observed a lack of professionalism among the staff. Meals were served late, and there seemed to be confusion regarding who had received their food. Our table was piled high with plates, and we had to assist the server in clearing dishes. When we finally received our last course, we realized that our silverware had been taken. Despite asking four different staff members multiple times, we were unable to get any silverware. Moreover, the food served did not match the menu and was often cold or falling apart when it arrived at our table. This was quite disappointing given the expectations associated with such an event, especially paired with the 500$ spent to buy the tickets. To make a long story short, don't go here unless you want to waste time, money and end up leaving hungry.

Absolutely in love with the Fork N' Film experience - it did not disappoint! My boyfriend and I got tickets for the Ratatouille showering at the Wayfarer in Los Angeles. I felt that was a good choice since the movie itself was food based :) We definitely hit a food coma by the end of the movie but it was hard to stop eating because everything was delicious! The venue was on the rooftop at the Wayfarer - there were strings of light around the venue to create a romantic and intimate ambience. For the experience itself, when you first enter, you will be greeted with a glass of champagne and unlimited popcorn (if you would like). There was also a photographer who took our fancy photos - these photos will be printed and inserted into a glass frame for purchase at the end of the night! We each had the course menu so we knew what foods to expect throughout the night. The various food and drinks came out in sync with the movie scenes and the crew did a great job clearing our tables in time before our table got too cluttered! This experience is a bit more on the expensive end ($199 pp for general admission) but I felt like I was fine dining at a restaurant with wine/ cocktail pairing.. the portion sizes were also perfect. I honestly loved every dish and some of the dishes were even interactive (I'll attach videos in my review)! My only food complaint would probably be that the Plat Du Chef was a bit too salty for my liking - I still finished that dish though haha. 10/10 recommend for a fancy date night outing!

Had an excellent time at Fork n Film. For the film The Little Mermaid, it was hosted at the Wayfarer in a speakeasy bar called Lily Rose. There is lot parking or a parking structure directly next to the Wayfarer. The bar itself is nice, small and has decor thats both current and old timey. Upon entering the bar area we were humbly greeted with some Champagne and popcorn. I really enjoyed the popcorn. The seating arrangement makes sure you have a perfect view of the screen. It took about 20-25 minutes after sitting down for the movie to start. A hostess went through the directions about the entrees as some need special attention. Right before the movie began we were served our first course. Japanese Clear Onion Soup - Light. Fully of flavor broth. Little salty. But reminiscent of a French onion soup. It had mushrooms and little bits of crouton / toast. I enjoyed this. Shrimp nigiri + Seaweed salad - Very basic sushi. Seaweed salad was your normal seaweed salad. And Ebi nigiri was ebi nigiri. Sunken Treasure Sake - A light drink with white rum, peach n lime. Not at all strong. Very sweet. Sailor's Sushi - California Roll, spicy tune roll and a crunch sweet potato roll. All good. Nothing new or out of the box. Sushi was fresh and flavorful Grilled octopus over red cabbage slaw w Unagi nigiri - This was pretty flavorful. The octopus was cooked perfectly and the slaw brought more of a crucnh and acidity to the plate. The Eel sushi was good. Now this was a dish that really tied into the movie. Ursula and her two eel henchmen. Sea Witches potion - A lemon drop but with gin and coloring added to it. Beautifully presented with dry ice to give the allure of a smokey presentation. Stuffed Blue Crab - This is another dish that played into the movie well. The stuffing was good and presented on an open blue crab. However I wanted to get more of the crab itself like the claws or inside of the body. At most the stuff portion of this was about two bites. Wedding cake - This was cute. A miniature wedding cake with strawberry inside. Delicious. All in all its about the experience. The staff was amazing and very accommodating. It really brings dining and a movie together. The food was good. I wouldnt say great. Some of the food didnt tie into the movie. 2 sushi courses for what I believe The Little Mermaid may be a french location based. Would have liked to see more movie food relatable items.

Been seeing this place advertised all over social media, so when I found out they were showing Ratatouille, I knew I had to check it out. From the service to the ambiance, I really appreciated the creativity and effort they put into crafting an immersive experience. We were served a seven-course meal with four beverages, all designed to align with scenes from the movie. Portions were small. Here's how it went: - A glass of champagne to kick dinner off - Course 1: Salad served in a tiny trash can. Light and refreshing, a good palate cleanser - Course 2: Charcuterie paired with white wine. While it was nice, I did miss having strawberries to pair with it (iykyk) - Course 3: Roasted oyster mushroom meant to mimic the 'lightning-y' flavor Emil describes. They even lit a sparkler on it. I'm not usually a mushroom guy, but it wasn't bad. - Course 4: Potato and Leek Soup, which we got to 'make' ourselves. While I loved the idea, the soup was creamier and saltier than I'd prefer. - Course 5: The 'Chef's Special' was a beef bourguignon. The beef was on the salty side, but the purée was creamy and smooth - a solid dish overall. - A fun, dry-ice drink that we got to mix ourselves - Course 6: The staple dish - Ratatouille - paired with red wine. I'm not a big fan of the dish itself, but it was nice to try it alongside the movie. - Course 7: Classic Crème Brûlée Overall, the concept was adorable and a lot of fun. That said, the food and ingredients weren't the best quality, and it's definitely on the pricier side ($$$). You're paying more for the experience than the cuisine, which I think is worth it at least once. I'm not sure if I'd dine here again, but I'm glad I tried it. If you're curious and love themed dining, it's worth checking out!

This one time I went to a musical on a Sunday. And the performance, in a word, was disappointing. Like the lead vocalists needed more time to develop their voices because when I heard them, I heard screeches. Ok, so they sang well, maybe just ok, but their voices were not at the same skill level or range as musical performers I am accustomed to hearing. Later that day I researched the situation. This one website explained that on Sundays the usual cast rests on Sundays. That is why Matinees are cheaper cause it is the time for understudies to shine. I remembered this moment in time because I went to Fork and Film on a Sunday- during their matinee hour- and, well, in a word the experience, was disappointing. My partner in dine was Lorraine-- a lady, a friend, and wonderful person all around. We went to see Coco. Now, as soon, as I entered the basement floor, where the movie and food were going to be enjoyed, I was mildly giddy, but giddy none the less. The place was adorned like a Mexican Plaza. We were offered a shot of tequila, or a Jarrito. If you do not know what a Jarrito is, then I suggest you adhere to this piece of advice closely--- you better as somebody! Lorraine went for the shot, and I went for the mocktail. My body did not need more alcohol. I had enough the night prior. The place had two types of seatings: love sofas that were like half-pods, and patio furniture--- seats and tables. I went to sit on a sofa pod, because these were the VIP seats, and I wonder-- Are they worth it? And the answer is a no. The VIP seats are 300 dollars. I do not know how you like to eat but if you are eating a sofa, you have to sit up. You can't recline and eat. At least I can't. The VIP package sofas, that are like half-pods, require you to sit back and enjoy the movie, but not the food. So use this information to decide if you want VIP seats. Cause to me, they are not totally worth it. But I might be crying cause I could not afford them. From my understanding, the food was suppose to come as it was shown in the movie. That did not happen. We were steadily bombarded with food. The food came, and the food appeared on screen moments and minutes after. That was an annoying disconnect. Before the film started we were served chips and guacamole. The chips came in pop corn receptacle of years gone by. It was a cute touch. But of course the vibe was supported by a lot of cute touches. Knick knacks, you know-- like paper flowers popularized by Dia De Los Muertos Celebrations, and like a little Mexican hat that sat next to carne asada tacos. Speaking about the food, I will offer two points of the spectrum of what I tried----- the Chicken Mole, and the chicharron with some pork belly. Mole is my favorite Mexican food. So Imagine my dismay when the Chicken Mole was a tragedy on a plate, mostly, because on my first bite I had some cartilage, maybe, sineu. the bite was disgusting--- a culinary crime. Al Capone had the mafia and tax evasion, Martha Steward embezzled, and Fork and Film served a chicken with cartilage. I had to spit it out. This, truly, in a culinary experience is unforgivable. The chicarron with pork belly was supremely good. This was my favorite dish, which is saying something, but not much. I will say that I grew up in a Mexican household. So I know sopes, I know tamales (the one here was grainy) I know conchas, tacos, and tres leches. All of these were items that were served at Fork and Film and were truly a notch above basic. However, the experience in itself is a joy. I do want to go, at night, to see if the food, pacing, and all of that was better. If you on a Sunday, you were warned. If you on a Sunday night for a night time screening than I am hopeful.

Overall experience was breathtaking. Everything was that, and more would definitely do it again. Thank you for the experience. And the food was delicious, the chef did an amazing job

What an amazing experience! I'm visiting LA for the weekend and these tickets were gifted to us (if I told you how, you wouldn't even believe me lol). Went with my sister and 4yo daughter (it was her bday), and the servers made such a big deal about her.. so sweet. We watched Home Alone 2. Perfect for the season. From when we walked in, we were greeted with huge smiles. When we got to the theater room, we were greeted with champagne and popcorn. I was a little concerned because we were not in a classic theater but that did not take away from the movie at all. Throughout the movie we were served the most delicious food and cutest drinks that made movie so much better. I'm thinking 4 was too young. She was a little antsy which I hope didn't distract other guests. My daughter has a mature palate but thank God pizza was on the menu.. so I am absolutely going back but not with her lol But if you get a chance to go, please go and get ready for the ultimate experience

I really, really wanted to be enamored by this experience. I paid for my husband, my mother-in-law, and myself to watch Beauty and the Beast since it's my husband's favorite. Let's start with the pros: -The service was all really, really great. Everyone was kind, up-beat, and on theme. Tommy killed it with his attentiveness and the host who introduced the movie (I forget her name, I'm sorry) had punny jokes and a wonderful stage presence. -The way they presented the food was very nice, particularly the drink in the rose glass-- that was definitely the way to start the show. -They didn't mess up on our drinks as my mother-in-law and I don't partake in alcoholic beverages. The cons: -For $200 per person I thought the food would be better. It was so-so. Perhaps I don't care for French cuisine or perhaps I just had my expectations set far too high. -The sound was up egregiously loud on the television/projector/whatever, to the point I had to put in headphones to muffle the sound. For a small space such as this I think it could have been turned down a bit. Over-all I *think* I would try again. It's possible that I just didn't care for the menu on this particular movie. In the event that another movie is on the same level, I think pricing should be reduced to around $60-$80 per person. I think the pricing is set high to try and make it feel more exclusive, but the quality doesn't line up with what you're paying for.

What a unique experience! It's certainly pricey at $200 per person and the tickets itself are hard to come by. We waited for the ticket drop at 7pm one day and it was sold out in 1 minute. This is located in the Wayfarer in DTLA. They take you down to downstairs bar room after check-in. Ended up coming on Valentine's Day and it was a great way to celebrate that day. We came for the movie ratatouille and the food that they made in the movie tasted so good. Most of the food came out on time when it was being shown on the movie. The only thing that didn't make it on time was the ratatouille which came out when the movie ended. I get it sometimes things happen but it's kind of a bummer when it doesn't come out as planned especially paying such a premium for this experience. Besides for that service was top notch with them checking in often. Is the experience worth it? Honestly it's too pricey for what you get. It's fun and definitely worth checking out once if you have the extra money. Parking - This location is in DTLA so all parking sucks. They have a parking lot a block away ( at 833 Flower St) but it's a bit rundown and ghetto. Parking was $15 and the lot smelled pretty bad, definitely don't leave valuables in your car apparently there are break ins on occasion.

I've been following for a while and was excited to receive a ticket under one of their promotions after trying on multiple occasions. $200 is a steep price, so I was excited to get to try it out. I just received a call that there was a "glitch" and they are no longer honoring their promotion and have canceled my reservation. This has put a bad taste in my mouth as they gave no other options other than canceling and telling me to be on the lookout for other promotions. Not great customer service.

I think this is a concept that was perhaps better on paper than in practice. The idea is that it is a restaurant that serves dishes while you're watching a movie. However their twist on that formula is to bring out creative foods meant to mimic something you are seeing on screen. If I could give five stars for the creativity I would. But unfortunately unfortunately the totality of the experience differs. I will start by mentioning the price point is about $200 a plate. Which I am not averse to paying but it does mean my expectations are going to be very high. And unfortunately despite the fun pomp and circumstance, the food is very average. Again, full marks for creativity and plating and visual appeal, but the food itself was unimpressive at best. Eating lukewarm spaghetti out of a pumpkin bowl while Shrek does the same on screen is cool, but at the end of the day it is still just lukewarm spaghetti. It is a multicourse meal, which I think they do a good job spacing it out and making sure you leave full. At the beginning they encourage you to take pictures and videos to put on Instagram, which is fun. But I think that's the experience they're going for. This is for some thing to post on social media, not so much to enjoy as a meal. But for two hundred bucks, I think I'd rather go to a fancy steakhouse and catch the movie at a theater.

AMAZING experience!!! We went to see The Office Christmas episodes and it was more than we could have imagined! We were greeted with champagne and popcorn when escorted to our seats. The staff was beyond friendly and helped when any questions arose. The food was delicious and consisted of 5 meals with 4 drinks. Cannot wait to go back!! High recommend the LA location!

The cheapest tickets here is $200 a person. Yes, for $200 per person, I expect perfection. Great: * Just the idea of having a fork and film; having this experience of eating what you watch is truly such a sensational, unique, and one of a kind idea! As soon as I learned about this event, it was my mission to make sure that I experience this at least once and that is what I did this evening with my husband. * the service is absolutely excellent. This event seats about 21 people and every area had a waiter/waitress. A person was assigned for at least four tables so you were definitely taken care of. * the presentation and creativity of some of the dishes and the drinks were absolutely marvelous! For example, the ogre butter with edible wax was super cool! The " I'm making waffles" drink with a nice piece of waffle attached to a minuscule tube of maple syrup that you could add to the waffle was very clever! The "Swamp slug supper" was presented exactly the way Shrek ate his dinner. It was even placed on a wooden plate exactly the way Shrek had which was amazing. Loved the gingerbread "eat me" look experience. Also enjoyed the spider webtini and the short king cake. Decent: the taste of the food was decent, but that's highly disappointing in itself because this is literally $200 a person so I am expecting exquisitely amazingly magnificently delicious food. It was not that. For example, the spaghetti that came with the slug supper was lukewarm and barely had any meat. The rotisserie chicken tasted like a few days old and was also lukewarm. Sad to say that Costco or Ralph's rotisserie chicken would've been so much better and they cost less than $10. Bad: * the ceiling chandeliers were malfunctioning. In other words, every few seconds many of the chandeliers kept turning on and off several times. It's not that big of a deal, but it was very noticeable. * For $200 a person, expecting a tip in addition to all of that is a little outrageous, especially when the food was very average. * The "Onions have layers" drink was terrible. It tasted like I was drinking Pringles chips in the onion and chives flavor. * we were seated at the high chairs which were not comfortable. * the walk to get to this location is pretty bad. I don't want to get into details but if you do choose to make the trip here, you know what I'm talking about. FYI - I attended the LA location. If this was $100 a person, it's absolutely and totally worth it. I would literally go to every single fork n film if it was $100 a person. Personally, I don't think it's worth $200 a person. But that's just me. However, this is something you must experience at least once in your life because it's truly unique and a one of a kind dining experience 5 that you don't really get anywhere else.

We just went to the Frozen showing and echoing what others have said, the food is okay at best. It started out with the Swedish meatballs and those were really hard and salty. I can still eat that though. The next was snowflake jello cube...not very good. The salmon dish was okay but still edible. It was a little on the salty side. The most disappointing dish was probably the "summer sandwich". The bread was hard and the spices in the bread were a little off. Was it fennel seeds in the bread? For an expensive meal, I was let down to be served a sandwich that I could hardly eat. The soup dish was okay. The waffle dessert was okay. To be honest, everything felt that it was frozen and just reheated. For the price tag, I was expecting better than average food. The concept is neat but it needs better execution. The servers were nice.

Fork n Film for soooo long!! Finally got em! Went last night (7/25/24) to see Princess & The Frog at The Wayfarer Rooftop. Amazing service, good layout, great movie, good food & an awesome experience!! Absolutely loved it!! Popcorn - Charbroiled oysters - tasty Gumbo (chix & sausage) - good flavor Beignets - very good Daiquiri - Frog legs - good Jambalaya - nice kick & flavor Espresso martini - yum King Cake - good (wished I got the baby!) Wait in the lobby of the hotel to get checked in. Go to the roof. You're greeted with champagne & taken to your table which is decorated with the theme. Not too crowded and very intimate. Parking lot right next door. Would definitely do this again! Travel_lifestyle_chow

Fork n Film offers a unique movie and dining experience for individuals of all ages! The service is wonderful, with staff delivering amazing, chill vibes and conversation. Super kind people :) The atmosphere is very much a fine dining experience with ambient live music. Very jazzy and relaxing. The room we were sat in, even the hotel lobby, were all gorgeous and well decorated! We had the pleasure of checking out the rooftop view (no image provided) but it was beautiful! My boyfriend and I loved the food and getting to sit through such a nostalgic childhood experience watching "The Little Mermaid!" We hope to visit again in the future (fingers crossed for Ratatouille and Princess and The Frog!!) S.O to Akira for being such a kind server + awesome on-theme makeup! :))

Finally! I finally got to experience Fork N' Film after stalking their IG page for a long time. Once I decided to attend, it took me another month to win the jackpot, and I got to purchase tickets! Yes, they sell out within minutes of releasing tickets, so you must act FAST! It's my birthday (March) month, so my best friend and I got all dolled up. Hair makeup, and bought a green dress to match the princess. Yes, we got tickets to the Princess and the Frog Disney movie. This dinner experience is one of a kind, with serval movies to pick from: Princess and the Frog, Ratatouille, and white chicks, to name a few. Location: New York, London, and Los Angeles are their pop-up locations. We attended the Wayfarer Hotel location in LA. Walking in, you're greeted by their event hostess, who guides you to the lower level. As we descended the stairs, we could hear what sounded like a brass instrument playing. As we grew closer, our steps quickened, the sound dancing around us. Our excitement grew as we turned the corner into the dem light whimsical underground parlor. The live band greeted us (sorry, I'm drawing a blink for their name.) as if you were walking down Bourbon Street in New Orleans. Before I can even get over the excitement of the live band, a tall, cool glass of champagne is pressed into my hand. Royalty has arrived, everyone! No, they didn't say that, but we felt like royals, lol. Still filled with excitement and drink in hand we were then lead to our table. The tables were decorated in the movie theme. (See pictures) each table was a sweetheart table, while the VIP section was a love seat. It's adorable and romantic. It is an excellent idea for a date night, too! Movie experience: I enjoyed it when the staff would bring out the food as it appeared on the screen. The plated food was well decorated, and my favorite was the frog leg with a real baby alligator head. Careful, its teeth are sharp! Food: Frog legs (my first time) tasted like salty chicken. Jambalaya was good, but their Gumbo was Delicious. The rest I'll let you experience yourself. Staff: They MADE the experience. I enjoyed and appreciated how much work and thought went into the event. As I mentioned before, I was celebrating my birthday so when the film ended I ran to use the restroom. When I returned, the room cheered and sang me Happy Birthday! I felt so special. Thank you, best friend and Fork N Film.

Wow. What else can I say except they knocked my socks off with this OOAK dining experience! The way they serve a scene themed dish-right at the start of the scene-is phenomenal! For example, during my daughter & I's favorite Disney movie "The Princess & The Frog", when the scene begins where she is cooking gumbo with her Daddy and she says "hit it with a shot of Tabasco and it will be the bees knees!" The server drops a plate of a mini-gumbo pot with fixings on the side like they have on screen with a miniature bottle of Tabasco! Another scene when Tiana is serving Beniets @Dukes restaurant to Daddy LeBoufe and Charlotte, you are served a plate of beniets w/ powdered sugar at the same time!! One more scene-and I could go on & on-When Dr. Facillier is doing a voodoo card reading on Prince Naveen, you are served a cocktail/mocktail from a skull glass with smoke coming out of it along with your own tarot cards! It's just such a special experience and all of this on a DTLA rooftop for the ultimate city life experience. It's a standout dinner. Worth every red cent and I bought (2) VIP tix. Creole Chef Zayne and our host Jasmine were on point with their service! What a Poppin LA-esq experience! Next up I'm doing Ratatouille! Can't wait ;-)

We attended the Ratatouille FnF event in Dana Point last month (November), and here's our take on the experience. First off, don't go to this hungry--have dinner beforehand. The food provided is more like appetizer portions; this isn't the kind of event where you'll leave feeling full. The evening started a little late, but that wasn't a big deal. Upon arrival, we were served drinks and popcorn, and then the movie began. The first course was a salad. Unfortunately, it felt like we were eating dry greens since there was barely any dressing--a single drop doesn't cut it. Next came a roasted oyster mushroom paired with cheese. This dish was delicious, but you only get one mushroom on a stick and a small cube of cheese. Following that was the potato and leek soup, which was flavorful, but the portion was tiny--probably about 8 ounces. The fourth course featured braised chicken thigh with three green beans on the side. While the flavors were excellent, the portion size left a lot to be desired. The chicken size was small...takes two bites to devour seriously! After another round of alcoholic drinks, the highlight of the evening, the Ratatouille, was served. Sadly, it was underwhelming. The vegetables were dry, there wasn't much sauce, and the portion was meager--more of a tasting sample than an actual dish. Finally, dessert arrived: a generously sized crème brûlée. It was ironic that the one course they served in a satisfying portion was the dessert. In summary, the food quality was good, but the portion sizes were consistently disappointing, except for the dessert. If you're planning to attend, make sure to eat beforehand, as this event is more about the experience and ambiance than a fulfilling meal. And forgot to mention, this experience isn't cheap.

We had our first Fork N' Film experience in July 2024 for The Little Mermaid. The tickets were challenging to get but the experience was worth the wait! The event took place in a speakeasy themed bar of a boutique hotel in DTLA. There were plenty of photo ops in the room with under the sea decor. Each course was timed perfectly and matched what was happening in the movie. The food was much better than anticipated (4/5 stars) and the presentation was amazing! What really made the experience special was the service. You can tell the people who work the event actually love their jobs and care about the experience of their guests. Charity went above and beyond to make our group feel special and accommodate us. Her energy and excitement was contagious and she made sure we had the most amazing day. I will absolutely be back to another fork n film event!

Going to one of these fork n' film dining experiences has been on my list for some time. I had seen it all over social media and I was finally able to get tickets to the little mermaid. These events usually sell out within minutes. The location isn't the best in DTLA but it is in a nice boutique hotel in the basement in a speakeasy type bar. There's no dedicated parking for this event so you just have to drive around looking for a lot that doesn't look too sketchy. There's one structure across the street and then there's an open lot 2 blocks away, they all range from $10-25 depending on the lot. Driving in DTLA can be difficult and the traffic to this location on a Friday evening was rough. The hostess was nice and let me pick out my table, but all the tables have a clear view of the screen. There are some regular tables and some high tops. They gave complimentary champagne and popcorn on arrival. The popcorn was nice and fresh. They started the film about 30 mins after the stated time on the ticket. There was a soup as a starter, then sushi, then grilled octopus, blue crab, and a dessert. They also included 2 alcoholic drinks that had dry ice that made for nice pictures/videos. They brought out the courses in a timely manner that corresponded well with what was happening on screen. It was enough food for me. The courses had fun elements to them like the dry ice, a firecracker, fun serving dishes like a ceramic oyster with a fake pearl, one of the drinks came in a treasurer chest, etc. The dessert came in a to go box if you were full. It was a fun experience but it is definitely very pricey for what you get ($200 for general admission). The food is ok, but I wouldn't say it's gourmet. You also do not know the menu until you get there (unless you can find reviews online) but when i bought the tickets reviews were not out yet for it. I was not thrilled about octopus being on the menu, but i tried it and it was fine. All the staff were great and checked in with us multiple times and took a few mins after the movie to ask how we liked our meal/the experience. Maybe I would do it again if one the movies they were featuring really spoke to me but not something i would do frequently due to the cost.

We had an amazing time...If you're undecided! Let me help make the decision easier...The experience, the staff, the customer service was top-notch and, the food was delicious. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for an awesome date night...girls night or just a solo trip! The intimate setting makes all of the above possible

I was expecting more than the hourly diarrhea, cold sweats, and nauseous the food gave me but for $200, I felt like it was still missing something. Cool idea, but I could've rented the movie and cooked an expensive t-bone for less.

I wanted to review Fork N Film. I love love the experience, and have been to two. First was Alice in Wonderland in LA, which was exciting and fun. The drinks/ food, servers, execution was great! I liked most of the food, and I was excited to come back. Second was in another location Dana point, and that is SO exciting to have a OC location ! My honest review of this one is the location was superb! Gorgeous! however, there was WAY too few servers and they couldn't keep up with delivering the food on time so everyone had a different thing at different times. They first give you popcorn, which was SO much smaller than the LA popcorn, and the servers not nearly as good and personable. They served a soup in a witch kettle, which was good, but the breadstick came after you ate the soup and it was supposed to come together. The food was actually pretty bad on this one unfortunately and I am not a picky eater! This was for hocus pocus which I love. They served a soggy black waffle cone with cheese in it, a soggy skinny breadstick . A very weird cold fried pasta dish that was supposed to look like a candle, but was very bad tasting . Then mushroom gnocchi which tasted really really bad :( a cold black spaghetti pasta, a little pumpkin with candy, and a brownie that looked like the spell book which was ok. My humble suggestions would be: the witch hat cone fresh/ with black round crackers as the hat brim. maybe a pumpkin edible cake or pastry with candy on it instead of a couple pieces of Halloween candy, NO on that gnocchi ! anything else! maybe meatballs. the cocktails were boring and didn't match the movie theme at all, and if your serving the pasta find a way to serve it warm. I think its just a very expensive 200 dollar per person meal, and this one didn't hit the mark.

We loved the concept and had been looking forward to a time that lined up, but we were disappointed by the quality of the whole experience. As you might've noticed, the site is finicky and the schedule is inconsistent so be prepared for changes to your event time. Once at the event, most items were low quality and/or stale. In the name of low quality, the projector was low quality and it was hard to hear, even from the second row. The presentation was always decent, but the food seemed like it had been prepared days prior and sat in an industrial fridge until that evening. For example, the charcuterie had dried out cheese and the salad had wilted and brown. Overall, the wait staff was nice but the entire event was poorly executed. MAYBE worth $40.

I had a wonderful experience with fork N film both times. I think it will be good if do garfiel

It is a great concept just not the best food for the movie chosen. Please expand to the south of the US so more people can attend.

This was such a wonderful experience! I was surprised by my boyfriend as a birthday gift. Funny enough our seats were my actual birthday 6/1 (Birthday) & 6/2. We watched The Little Mermaid, which happens to be my favorite Disney movie. The location was not my favorite. At first, I was worried because there was a street festival which was blocking the streets to park or get to the parking garages. If I was still living in NYC this would not be a problem. Luckily, there was a cop who allowed us to drive to the garage to park as it was a paid for spot. I typically use a parking app before coming into the city as I am in Jersey. It provides the closest garages for the best prices. Upon arrival we were greeted by the general manager Chris. He was beyond kind and helpful and made the birthday experience even more pleasant. He was wonderful and even took our photos which came out amazing. Thank you for thaOur waiter Eddie was also attentive and nice. The popcorn was the best tasing popcorn I had at the movies in years. The food was great, and the timing was perfect. When I looked back at my photos and videos, I realized I caught the perfect food and screen shot. I loved it completely and recommended it to a ton of my friends. I will most certainly purchase a ticket to another movie.

If you're on the fence about going to Fork n' Film I'm here to tell you...DO IT! We had so much fun. The food was yummy and the drinks were delicious. The presentations were fun and made us feel like we were in the movie. To top it off, the staff was extremely kind and hilarious. 10/10 would recommend

This experience was AMAZING! 10/10! I would definitely recommend, and I see why the prices are kind of high. This was my first immersive dinner and movie experience, and the staff were so friendly, and they even had complimentary champagne with rooftop views. They also really take you allergies into considerations and so many free dinks that come throughout the film! One of the best experiences i had this year

We recently viewed The Princess & the Frog with Fork n Film. It was wonderful! The people were friendly & so accommodating! The atmosphere was pure New Orleans! From the Jazz trio to the Mardi Gras beads. The food was beyond delicious! Gumbo, frog legs, Jambalaya, even King cake with a couple of cocktails as well. The presentation of each dish was inventive fun. The service was spot on also!Dishes delivered at just the right moment to compliment the movie unobtrusively & cleared away the same way. It is tricky to get these tickets because they sell out so fast, but now I understand why. It was delightful & their crew is a well oiled machine! I definitely hope to go again sometime (& hope they expand to the SF Bay Area!)

This company gave us nonrefundable tickets for over $800 for my family of four and at the door they reneged on most of the promises they made do not recommend. What a scam!

the atmosphere is fun for families and couples because it's lively, cute presentation of food and the decoration and music before the movie starts is pleasent. but don't come here if you're hungry. the proportions are small and not enough to fill you up. my family went to watch ratatouille and they gave us 4 pieces of vegetables for ratatouill. a small portion of soup that was done in 10 seconds. a dry salad with a teaspoon of dressing on top. the mushroom and cheese and chicken was amazing but please add more proportion sizes for the amount you pay to get in. we stayed at dana point marriott for fork n film and the seats were uncomfortable. we're watching a movie for almost 2 hours so we should at least get better seating for that amount of time. also it would be nice if they added heaters outside since it was cold. the food was also a bit cold since there was a delay in the start time. the popcorn and drinks you get before your meal is pretty good too. the creme brûlée was alright. it's great if you're vegan but if you've had good creme brûlée then it's nothing special. they should include vegan and non vegan options. also they should at least add more of the food shown in the movie if they're going to give you small proportions. it was fun and i understand this is a fairly new company so i won't complain too much. the view was perfect and the sunset was pretty. our seats was perfect since we got priority seating but again this place needs more comfortable seats, more food, heating if it's cold, and a backup plan if it rains and they should add more movie options as well. disney movies are fun but they should include mature films like the menu or paris can wait. i really hope this buisness takes these recommendations because the idea of their buisness is really creative and fun but there needs to be a few tweaks.

I have nothing but amazing things to say about the Fork n Film NYC experience. From the staff to the food everything wa exactly what I expected & more. My favorite childhood movie is The Little Mermaid & this experience really encapsulated the theme for me. I cannot wait to go back & experience another one.
