Great place, except the sound was so bad that it was hard to understand the movie, and the image lacked clarity of modern cinemas. Remodel is lovely. Nice people. Great concessions. But the point of the place is the film, and an upgrade to the projector and sound would perfect it. I want to love this place so badly... Hoping for improvements. Then it'll be my joyous home for seeing movies.

Catch an inexpensive movie here but the place is pretty dated and the screen quality and sound isn't the best. Great to catch up on movies without the annoying Tweens, teens and rude adults that pepper the entire city and burbs. Location makes it great for dinner and a movie because if all the nice restaurants nearby. Edited: 6/30/2918 Went from 3 Stars to 5 Stars! What a transformation. Great service at the bar, comfortable seats and upgraded sound and screen. Great little neighborhood theater. You can take in food and drinks into the theater. Handful of vegan and vegetarian options too.

Having grown up in Lincoln Square and walking to the Davis as a child, I love the renovations they've made! It makes me happy that the owners care enough about the history of the place to restore with respect to the past, while upgrading it with modern amenities. The bar and restaurant are nice with good bar service and food. The theater was very comfortable with room between the seats to place a plate of food if you wish (all food/drink from the restaurant may be brought into the theater). Clean is not a word I would have associated with the "old" Davis, but it certainly is clean now. Bravo!

My FAVORITE Chicago theater. This historic place had a massive renovation to update everything while preserving the art deco style. My wife and I would regularly travel 45 minute on the train from downtown just to go here. They don't have show times on the major sites like Fandango, but their site is easy to use. Staff is friendly too. We bought tickets online and changed our mind on the way to switch to another show around the same time. Even though the policy is "no substitutions" they were able to switch it for us at the counter. The snacks are good and they even serve beer at the concession stand. Go early and grab a meal at the Carbon Arch restaurant that is part of the same establishment. The burger is great.

Not a place featuring bells and whistles (read; don't expect an IMAX comic book movie opening night experience) but absolutely beautiful since the remodel. So grateful it's in my neighborhood. Oh, and the ability to drink a beer at a movie is magic.
