This is one of my favorite movie theaters to go to because of the kinds of movies they show here which are usually art house films. Seating is really nice as is the newly renovated lobby area. The service is excellent and the staff are always friendly and helpful. All in all I always get a great feeling at the Bijou and have a wonderful movie watching experience.
My favorite theater! I love watching movies here! The level of service is always above and beyond! The food is quite tasty as well! Always had great experiences here!
Best outdoor Jazz w/excellent performers & No Admission. 7:30 to 10 pm; 4 Fri nites in July/Aug.
This is my favorite theater. It's quiet, uncrowded with a nice seating area to have a drink before or after your movie. The food is wonderful, especially by movie theater standards. They are often the only place showing independent and documentary films the week they come out and I appreciate them so much for that. Parking is really easy and free!
I have been going to this theater for over 15 years. I will gladly drive across town to go there. I particularly enjoy the man playing the keyboards. I have talked with him and he is very talented and is a joy to speak to. This theater is unique in all of San Antonio. The crowd is mostly older and mellow. The prices are a bit high but the service is excellent. If you don’t like it, please don’t come back. This theater is a jewel. Not for everyone but with luck you will mature and enjoy it as much as the rest of us.
Considerable improvements have been made. Always liked the place, but the seats are much more comfortable now, and I appreciate the better, more attentive service as well. Pretty good wines available for a movie theater. Nice place to escape to and see something that most other theaters in the city don't have lined up.
It was great to see Cyrano on the big screen here after a long time away. The Bijou offers beer and wines, as well as popcorn and other theater snacks. Chairs are oversized and comfy and have a table to place food items.
The new seats are very comfortable, everything seemed fresh and new and we were told that the continuing plans for updating the theater include a nice bar and an improved restaurant. The staff was very friendly, and there were people at every station, unlike some theaters which seem like a ghost town. If there is a movie that gets great reviews, but you can't find it anywhere, try the Bijou. They show art movies, foreign films as well as top rated popular films. We love the Bijou, hope you will give it a try.
The theatre always looks clean. The movies are most often top notch. There's usually a man playing a piano in the lobby, but he wasn't there tonight and I missed him. There were no paintings by local artists on the walls, and I missed those, too. The employees are kind and very efficient. We left laughing tonight, and the employees that told us good night laughed with us as we were leaving - which was endearing.

*Update*
The Bijou has been renovated. They have what look like crystal chandeliers in the lobby, it looks really good. I didn't mention this in my last review but on Friday, Saturdays and Sundays in the evenings, they have a piano player in the lobby which adds a touch of class. They no longer have art for sale lining the hallway. I'm not sure why, I hope they start that again. They also replaced the seats in the theaters. They look like leather seating and it's very comfortable but they don't recline. You now press a button for service which is easier because you don't have to rely on the standing paper being seen by the server.
We saw The Darkest Hour. I liked it more than I thought I would. The wait staff is hit or miss. Tonight, they were slow to take orders. Once they came around it was all good. We and the people in the row behind us, had issues with someone constantly checking their cell phone. I told Jason and he was very helpful. He sent an usher in and she waited until she caught them, it was only a few minutes. From that point on they left the theater to check their phone. Thanks Jason. You made watching the movie better for everyone.
