On the 2nd floor is Bogart's Bar and Grill. Already quite popular. The wait was 25 minutes tonight so we did not eat at a table, but we did order from the Bogart's "premier" concession stand adjacent to the bar. In fact, I spent $60 on food and drinks there tonight, a personal record!
For the first time in my life I ate sushi in the movie theater (the tuna roll was a bit bland though) and my wife had a glass of champagne, fried calamari, grilled artichokes, portabella mushroom flatbread (or pizza) and steak skewers, topped off with popcorn. She didn't tell me how the food was probably because she was chewing for 2 hours straight. That must mean she enjoyed it.
Bogart's is not yet allowed to sell alcohol at the consession stand. But the full bar had great service and they let us bring the drinks into the VIP seats.
The concession stands downstairs had more typical movie food. It looked pretty good. In fact, next time I go, I'll be ordering the hot dog and curly fries for $7. That would have been more fulfilling than my sushi roll.
The movie itself was unbelievable. No wonder it won Best Picture. Just amazing. And the clear picture and perfect sound made the experience outstanding.
The exterior of the theatre is also beautiful and there is a nice connection between the new section of The Oaks mall and Muvico. In fact, The Oaks has a large outdoor section now that looks really top notch. Beautifully done.
Muvico Grand Opening Weekend begins on Friday, February 27th at The Oaks in Thousand Oaks! Muvico's 14-screen, 109,000 square foot theater will complement the graceful Southern California architectural design of the new and improved The Oaks. And more great news for the local economy! Hey, our 401(k) plans may be down 50%, but we can splurge a bit on local entertainment, right?
