Often not open for business so take that into consideration. Rarely open, hard to say if you'll get service, not sure if you'll get surly service or totally cool, and very uneven presentation. Sort of a Cinema Paridiso in reverse or more like playing the lottery. I will say that should you actually get to see the movie, the auditoriums have good sound and reasonably good projection.

Awesome Theater!!!. This theater is awesome! Myself and my 4 yr old daughter visited this theater for the first time this past weekend. It is defiantly not your typical theater today but that it exactly what makes it great. It has character. It is clean, it does NOT smell!!! We had a great experience at the Walnut Theater.

Excelent theater!. I grew up in Westwood CA, which is where movies premiers are shown and are renowned as the best theaters in the country. I've traveled extensively and since I'm a movie buff I have sat in many theaters around the country/world. I moved to Dallas in Feb. 2008 and was referred to this theater by my girlfriend. At first, it was hard to find the theater since it's tucked away behind a bank and was hard to see. As I and my children entered the theater, the manager greeted us and asked which movie we?d like to see. I told him and he promptly made change and handed me the tickets. He then ran over to the concession stand and asked if we?d like popcorn, candy or a drink. I ordered a large popcorn and a drink. As he handed me the drink, he told me that he'd make the popcorn fresh for me and he'd bring it to me at my seat. The movie started and the manager quickly brought the popcorn to me, fresh, hot and cooked perfectly. As I watched the movie, I noticed that the sound was amazing inside the theater. The surround sound was as good as or better than I had heard before in much larger and much more expensive theaters around the country. When the movie was finished and I was exiting, the manager told me thank you for coming and to come again. I have since seen all the new release movies at this theater. This theater is better than the large chains since each person gets personal attention. Secondly, the sound system is second to none, especially in the Dallas area. Lastly, the manager operates the projector, sells the tickets and operates the concession stand all by himself. Amazing!

On a separate note, the last comment from user zairamartinez below is obviously a bigot and should not lie about the condition of this theater. The theater did not smell bad nor was the manager impolite. The manager puts on the whole show and should not be bothered by stupid questions from ignorant people.

DFW'S BEST HIDDEN JEWEL!. I have been going to this Theatre for a couple of years now. The first time I went there,I was kind of skeptical. It is hidden behind a bank,looks somewhat run down,and doesn't have the most up to date renovations..I have heard people say that they are scared of the neighborhood,or it looks unsafe! Not True at all! I take my kids there alone often,and never feel unsafe. I am a mom of 4 kids, the prices were just right for us,so we went in. Man,am I glad that I did. This theater has one of the best sound systems that I have ever heard! I am by no means an expert,but even I could notice the difference between this small theatre and a large chain! I still go to this theatre every time we go to a movie. We drive across town,because we enjoy this place so much. I do not think that the manager is rude,or has bad customer service. He has always been very cordial to my family,and I have referred all of my friends here. Please take into consideration,that this is a family owned and operated theatre. He is pretty much a one man show,so don't get upset if it takes him a little longer to get that drink for you, you will be glad that you took the time to try this place out! I think it is worth the drive! He always has New Releases,and makes the popcorn fresh everytime. Yes, you will have to wait like 5 mins to get it,but that is worth him taking the time to pop it fresh,and hand deliver it to your seat! I promise you will not be disappointed in this Theatre!
