Customer Reviews

These theaters are amazing!!! From Restaurant, Games, Bowling, & Bar!! Hubby & I had a great date night! We watched sinners and highly recommend seeing that also!! I loved this place ! ??

EVO Entertainment + EVX + IMAX? - Kyle is a great place to go for a movie night! The IMAX theater is huge and has amazing sound quality. I recently saw a new movie in IMAX, and it was an incredible experience. The picture was so clear and the sound was so immersive that it felt like I was right in the middle of the action. The theater itself is also very clean and comfortable. The seats are spacious and there's plenty of legroom. The staff is friendly and helpful, and they always make sure that everyone ha

Manager Melissa is a complete liar & fraudulently charged my credit card while lying that she hadn't. It seems we are the anomaly experience at this location alas, 2 starts is being generous. Our visit started being told they no longer have the Grub&Game deal. Their bowling screens still advertise it. After ordering our food with the bartender, we never saw her again. The chicken tenders appeared either overcooked or cooked in old oil. I was later told my Melissa, ?maybe your kids shouldn't order it.? We

Had such a fun date night here! Big shoutout to management and the staff! The place is incredibly clean and well organized, and you can tell the team is treated well. Everyone was friendly and helpful. The bar food is tasty, and we wish we'd had time to bowl before the movie. This place really has it all! We'll be back soon!

Love EVO! They've got a super awesome arcade, didn't get to try bowling because the wait jumped from 30 minutes to 3 hours in 5 minutes? but everything else is great! I wish they had the reclining seats with the trays for food but that's okay :) still my go to movie theater !

I have been passing this place for a while now and finally decided to come check it out! I love arcade games and to find a fun place to bring my family ?? It seems much bigger from the outside but still has alot of fun games and there is bowling and its connected to a movie theater which the prices seem very reasonable for both. There is also a small bar area if you want to hang out while your kids play. It's a quick go to if you wanted a little fun time

This place makes us feel like family. Every time i go with my kids or if i just want a tuesday Matinee for just me and my partner, A.j., Parker, Melissa, Makayla, and the rest 9d ther leadership staff really make us feel like its our own theater and its our own experience. An example is our most recent trip..it was my youngest son's birthday and we purchased tickets to see A Minecraft Movie. It was already a crazy weekend and the place was packed! We putchased tix through the app and showed up for our seat

BEST MOVIE NIGHT EVER! First- the prices!! I haven't seen prices this low for a movie in years! It made me so happy to only have to pay $7 a ticket, and at a very high quality theater as well- Super comfy seats, and it was so clean. If you told me this place had been built a couple months ago, I would have believed you with how pristine it all felt. I loved the environment. It was a wonderful date with my husband. Thank you!

Fun family-friendly place! The waitress was patient with our kids and provided outstanding service.

One of the best EVO locations there is!! The staff to the management are super friendly and helpful, clean and modern facility and the best theaters and arcades in the state!! A full day of nothing but fun when you pair bowling, a movie, arcade and dinner. The food is top notch, not what you would expect at a movie theatre!

5 Stars ? Outstanding Experience at EVO Kyle! My friend and I recently took our kids to see the new Minecraft movie at EVO Kyle and accidentally booked tickets for the EVX theater without realizing how intense the sound system would be. When we arrived, it was way too loud for our little ones, and we were worried our movie outing was about to be a bust. Enter Daniel, the manager?an absolute lifesaver! He was incredibly understanding, kind, and quick to come up with a solution. He moved us to a standard th

Staff is friendly and courteous but if you're here to bowl, just don't!! Lanes are bowed and balls are not maintained, making bowling less enjoyable since the dents make it impossible to get the ball down where you want. Only gave an extra star because of staff.

I had bought a single movie ticket to see Black Bag. While I was watching the movie it had cut off like 20min into the movie and the lights came on. I alerted the front staff at the concessions stands and they said they would notify someone to get it turned back on. As I got to my seat I was approached by Supervisor Diego. Diego asked to see my ticket to make sure I didn't purchase the ticket for a different day. Well it turned out that I made a mistake and bought the ticket for the next day. Diego explaine

A poor man?s Main Event, that thinks way too high of itself. Most of their games are incredibly over priced, so a $20 game card will only last you a couple games. Their Billiard tables cost an entire $20 game card for one game. These people are scam artists. Their more affordable games are never working, only their expensive ones. The only thing that MIGHT be teeny worth it is their bowling lanes, but even then you're gonna spend $100 for a decent time. $17 dollars for a medium pibb xtra, a small water bott

We love coming here with our two boys. The service is usually good, but sometimes you run into staff like Diego and Liz. These two set the bar REAL high with service and honestly have is the best experience ever. Thank you for going above and beyond.

Half the arcade games were busted and the bowling alley clerk was rude af. Our lane broke down within five minutes. Then we ordered two drinks that never came. Prize area clerk was chill though. Hit the Pinballz, fam. It's like five minutes down the I-35, mucho mejor.

IMAX theater screen is a bit small, but the overall experience was great. Comfortable reclining seats and bottomless popcorn are a plus!

The counter people had all lights off on the lanes and refused to turn them on. Never bowled in a dark alley. We had 4 lanes and 20 people. You need an alley manager, not cash register people. They didn't know if we could even pay for our shoes separately. Sunday, April 27, 3pm

World class entertainment for bowling! There are 14 rows of bowling alley and it is reasonably priced for an hour of entertainment. My good friend Carlton invited me and my friends on this fun trip and it was totally worth every penny! Highly recommend.

Great theater lots of parking clean movie, rooms, bowling drinking all kinds of fun. Definitely recommend this location if you're looking to take your family or friends.

I really enjoyed my experience at EVO! I hadn't been since they opened 10 years ago, but it was awesome! I had no idea the Fan Event movie premiere came wirh a $20 game playing card also. So after the movie we got to play games. Staff was super friendly, and it was decently priced. I highly recommend!

Watched an awesome movie and stayed for a bit in the arcade. Super great theatre and the best arcade I've seen attached to one. It is on par with epic fun. They also seem to be renovating, which I'm super excited for. We will be back soon. HUGE SHOUT OUT to Ike rocking the ?Barbie? hat and AJ in the arcade area. Solid people who helped us with a ticket tangle. Great Sevice, awesome theatre, and dope arcade, nuff said.

Nice theater but disappointed with seats. They weren't recliners. They did rock though.

Had such a good time with my kiddos. Staff was friendly. Wasn't too busy during 5pm on Friday. The bartender was friendly. Beer was cold, and football was showing on the TV's. A good place to take your kids if you're south.

IMAX theatres are amazing, but they can be extremely loud. We gave them constructive criticism after the Interstellar show and they were happy about the feedback! Loved the vibes, wish I was a kid again to enjoy the arcade outside the screens.

Seats need upgrade, screens may have been upgraded recently or maybe projection, but they're behind. They don't do order to seats, that's disappointing with all the staff complaining about new uniforms everywhere you'd thing they could deliver.

AJ and Franklin made the night great with their customer service. We will definitely be back to bowl and play games. Thanks for going the extra mile for our first time!

The theater was clean, the lines were fairly quick and the arcade is a great way to unwind the kids after the movie. All in all is a great way to see a matinee and make a whole afternoon of the experience.

EVO in Kyle is ok for what it is. The bowling lanes were broken 1/2 our time. The seats in the movie were the old stadium style and we're not comfortable at all. The arcade games were 75% working. All said, and done the kid had a fun birthday. I feel it was a ok value.

Evo Kyle is awesome! All kinds of great video games and the theaters are always clean. The food is great and the manager. AJ Haynes, was very helpful and solicitous, directing folks at ticket purchase with a smile and clear directions. Love it here and will recommend to all of my friends and family.

Great place to watch movies, the staff is always friendly. They have great food and games. My family always has a great time at EVO.

The seats are awful and the movie (on EVX) was so painfully loud that I left. I'll stick with the Cinemark near me, where I can put my feet up and enjoy a show.

Evo has lost its mind with pricing. $40 for 30 minutes of bowling? $16 for 6 wings? No thanks. Only plus is that it's a clean spot.

We enjoyed going here to see Wicked, great sound, but for what we paid, the chairs seemed smaller and I was hoping there would be a small table to put food on for that much $. This was for EVX screen. The pizza was pretty good! The guy at bar was friendly and professional, as well as the other bar tenders. I would say check theater room photos in case someone is larger, I put the arm up in the middle of our seats and we felt a bit snug compared to other reclining seats of a similar price.

Took my kid to see the minecraft movie this morning at the 9 a.m. showing. Was disappointed since yesterday April 4th was the release of movie an they were sold out of the cups n popcorn things. How can you already be sold out after the fitst day. Not very happy about this.

We had a great time at this spot. My husband, daughters and I were visiting some friends in Kyle this past weekend and we decided to go to the movies. Unfortunately they weren't showing the movie my daughter wanted to watch. We still decided to stay and enjoy some entertainment through the arcade and bowling. The arcade was nice, they had a few broken games. The staff was very nice and helpful one in particular named Josiah I believe. We ate and enjoyed adult beverages. All in all, we had a great time!

More than half of the games were under construction (not available for play), the other half of the games did not function properly, tickets were not awarded. Bowling lanes completely booked with no availability for 3 hours. Decided to order food and there was hair in the pizza. Movie theater seats are very uncomfortable, not upgraded. Very overpriced for poor quality.

Very good place to watch a movie the tickets are a little steep on the weekend as well as the snacks! Other than that the experience was great!

It's such a shame where we have arrived . This is a critique on evo but also is inclusive of most arcade centers I have been to recently. For the sake of keeping this review genuine I will focus on evo kyle . The games are weak . Insanely adhd and low quality. After spending 35.00 in 10 minutes I realized there wasn't even anything that interesting to play. It is insanely expensive to play and the games end so fast before they ask you to dump another 12 credits in - the equivalent of $4.00 . Also a lot of

Liz was absolutely incredible! We were here for my company's holiday party and she was so accommodating and friendly, eager to help at any moment. I cannot thank her enough for her hospitality and kind attitude. I live in San Marcos and will probably drive to Kyle next time I want to have a night out at EVO even though there's one closer to me. Thank you Liz, you are the absolute best! PROMOTE HER

Love going there with the family the staff is always friendly and they keep the theater clean. That also have yummy snacks ????

Staff was friendly. Seats in the EVX theater were clean and comfortable. Great experience!

For being a newer theater you would think they had comfortable seating, NOPE old school seating ??, will not be going back , makes me sad cause I liked everything else ..

Nice place first time there. However a group of boys were loud, rude and acting disrespectful. Was glad to see them being escorted out.

Went for a short bday party. Daughter had fun bowling and playing games with her friends. Bar seems lively. Pizza was tasty.. Lots of law enforcement in kyle dwelling around the place. one cop was walking around inside evos the whole time we were there...when I pulled out to go home toward lockhart one was traveling the opposite direction of me. he immediately looped around and came up behind me then after sitting behind me at a light pulled me over because my new nessan frontier trucks temporary paper lice

Great place, love the workers and services. Really good to play some games, get some food and end with a movie.

We had a great experience with the manager Cody. I bought 5 tickets and didn't realize I had purchased them for the previous day. He took care of everything and exchanged the tickets out happily without any issues! Great customer service!

I came here for the bowling, and it stink. The lanes are super damaged, and they are always getting stuck. Part of the place is having foundation issues. Drinks are good and the food is OK. Besides that it's mainly a kids' place.

Fun games, a bit pricey for most games but we love that everything is all in one place. Great customer service too! Variety of movie offerings and great weekday movie deals!

Seems like half the games don't work whenever I come in. I'm constantly going up to the desk to get my card refunded for malfunctioning games. It's nice when it works, but it's an inconvenience to ask for refunded swipes each trip. The food is ok, drinks are not bad. It's really the only place in town with these amenities. The San Marcos location is worse on the games.

Love they have an IMAX. Staff was friendly. Theater was clean. They don't have servers or table trays in the theater, so eating during the movie can be cumbersome. I recommend you just get popcorn and candy.

Best arcade and theater in the area!! Management is on point! Highly recommended for family fun.

Had a lot of fun here bowling and getting a bite to eat. They spaced everyone apart. Cleaned ever time new people started. They are doing their part during this time. I would recommend this place if you need to get out for a little fun and relaxation.

Nice but a bit rundown. You book seats, numbered, then you realize there are no numbers on the seats. But comfy

There were at least three things that we wanted to order from the bar on their menu or previously on their menu that they could not make. Seriously? You can order a shake and you can order a root beer at the bar, but you cannot order a root beer float? C'mon! Get it together! That's just one thing. I ended up having to go to the concession stand to get a kids meal. Went into the theater and about half way through my popcorn realized that the candy bag was completely empty. ?? During the movie I went all the

Clean, recliners are comfortable, fun family place where kids can have a blast spending Daddy and Mommy's money.

Love it. They great food and great drinks. Fun time. Very helpful staff.

Had a great time we bowled and played arcades for hrs

Went to watch "SMILE," for my first ever visit here. Entertaining, clean place, & will definitely return!

Considering it was our first time here we had fun. What shocked us was the price of $14 for a pitcher of sprite and coke. Plus the price of a pitcher or beer my stepson?s got for $20. Yes you read correct!

I've only come here for the movies and I'm never disappointed! The staff is super chill and the quality of the theatre is great. If you go to a show that's later in the evening (and it's been out for a while) you can typically experience the movie with less than 10 people.

Half the Game Machines were broken. Air hockey was playable but would stop in the middle and should have been marked as broken too. Dirty Bathrooms. Old Popcorn. Theater Room #2 had so many missing Number plates, people were not able to find there seats. I had to count from the only one in my row that had one. Do not recommend and will probably just go to San Marcos EVO for now on.

Fun place, and all the workers are friendly. Bartender was also quick with the drinks

FyrePix Family loves Evo Entertainment for our Sunday Funday family day! It's the perfect way to relax and have fun after a long week of capturing moments with FyrePix Photos. From bowling to movies and arcade games, there's something for everyone in the family. Evo always delivers a great experience, and it's our go-to spot to unwind and recharge for the week ahead!

Half the games were broken. Their prices have easily tripled over the last 10 years. Maybe bring back $5 Tuesday.

So trash. Games don't accurately showcase your scores and you can't even play through the missions in the halo game without swiping again. Super dirty environment too and ridiculous swipe cost per game. Never coming back.

I've gone to this spot for years for movies and it's never let me down, best prices has iMax/EVX and the staff is always friendly and nice

It was clean and good, friendly customer service. I would like more free and for sell movie products offers. I would not like to drive to Austin because I like the other theaters' popcorn bucket or the cup, or the free movie pin, posters. Please keep your customers excited about going to your theater.

Can't believe how dirty this place is. The staff is so lazy always seeing them standing around.The only thing was the movies we're good. My husband went to grab some popcorn and sodas and they didn't have drink holders The theater ?? area was also dirty The girls bathroom didnt have any toilet paper.i would not bring my family back here again.

Daniel one of the managers on staff was absolutely wonderful. I bought the wrong tickets for the wrong day and he easily switched them and gave me my refund without a hassle, he was super friendly. When we go, it's always clean and staff are quick and kind workers! 10 of 10 I recommend

I'm here now for a walk-in kids bowling party, 6 kiddos. The teenagers at the bowling check in were a little confused about what lanes would be available and when. The manager Melissa was so great she helped straighten out the situation ?? and helped get the kids refills on the drinks. Very impressed with her level of customer service. The food was really good too. Wish we had one in Pflugerville and we'd want manger Melissa there too!

We came by on Christmas to see Nosferatu and Bruce was our Bartender. He made great drinks and was very friendly. Highly recommend asking for him. Movie was great too

I like that they have slowly been renovating this place. Love that they have replaced all the theater seats. This was really needed. I'm not likeing the fact that they took away the Jack and Coke from the menu! Please bring it back!!! I tried an item off their new menu and was really disappointed. I wasn't going to leave my movie to get it fixed either. I ordered the Fancy Grilled Cheese and it was missing the tomato jam which is what makes it "fancy". So I pretty much got a grilled cheese on some type of

Place was so much fun for our 4 year old - went on a Wednesday, and to my surprise they have specials on Wednesdays so that was nice. The staff was so nice too. She loved getting tickets then getting prizes, plus she tried bowling for 1st time - she didn't want to leave, lol, oh and she loved their chicken tenders & fries?? A+++

I recently found this place, and I wanted to share a review. My teenagers love to play pool and we come from Austin to this location to play pool. The food is good. The drinks are always good anytime I have any kind of issue with any of the machines the staff is courteous and they respond very fast. the manager is very kind and Even helped me get the pool machine working so that my family could play which I was very appreciative after working a 12 hour day and coming home and Taking my family out for some f

What a absolute joke, arcade games half work, I wanted to have a fun day at an arcade with my 7 year old and even he was looking at the expensive games knowing they weren't worth it... I have been standing here waiting to get a toy with the few tickets we did win for 15 minutes waiting for someone... Movies might be good, bowling could be fun, but the arcade and whoever is in charge of it has me never wanting to come back.

Watched the movie Wicked. Fantastic movie! Absolutely loved it. I give the movie 5 stars! The movie theater provided a good experience. We made reservations online and went seamlessly into the theater for our movie.

the manager AJ Haynes was super accommodating and made a situation right! shout out to him

Great prices on Tuesday for movies and games they don't tend to advertise the game deals a lot of times you'll have to talk to the staff about them the theaters can be small and do not have some of the fancier amenities at like the South Park Meadows Cinemark. The popcorn was absolutely terrible and we could hear sounds from the other nearby theaters over our own movie especially when someone left the three hour long movie to go to the bathroom and open the door. I really hope they renovate the theater an

Love this place! Always a go 2 for Friday afternoon with the family. All the employees are super nice and always helpful whenever assistance is needed. My family?s favorite employee: Charles always does an amazing at greeting us and is super nice when asked for help even going the extra mile to make sure me and my family are having a good time! All the workers at the food vending are super nice and friendly as-well as the rest of the staff!! This place is definitely a go to people!! Much love -Kent family.

I watched the new Gladiator movie. The theater was nice and clean. The staff was friendly overall. My only comment is that after the movie I asked for a drink refill as I was leaving and this seemed to upset the worker because she was cleaning. I understand her frustration to a certain extent, but they was another screening of the movie that started after us, so surely she would get more customers than just me.

I don't recommend hosting a group event at EVO. Had a company party yesterday(my boss reserved ahead of time) and the staff was completely unprepared and took their frustrations on our group. We were blantantly ignored by the bartenders, and appeared inconvenienced when they finally approached. We were told we'd have a server for our lanes, to which we had to find for ourselves after no one showed up 40mins later.

It was great has everything for all ages Movies games food ..love it

Great experience! Movies and concessions are always a little pricey but overall a great time. Movies, bowling, food, bar and games!

Came here for a kids birthday party and what a time to be a kid! This place has all the fun and the parents were loving it because their kids has plenty to do!

Daniel the manager was so incredibly kind and helpful! We ran into a small problem with our tickets and he was super mindful and amazingly professional in how he handled the situation. We will 100% come back with our friends and family because of the generosity he has shown us!

Fun place to hang out. Food and drinks available. Games, movies and, bowling alley.. It's a cool place. Go have some fun!

We always love EVO! From the bar and food to bowling to movies. EVO does not disappoint!

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s it like visiting an arcade today?

It’s a mix of nostalgia and high-energy fun! Many arcades blend retro classics like Pac-Man and pinball with modern VR games, racing simulators, and rhythm challenges — often with music, lights, and a social vibe.

Is it better to go alone or with friends?

Both can be great! Solo visits let you focus on your favorite games, while going with friends adds competition, teamwork, and laughs. Many people plan arcade meetups as a casual hangout or even date spot.

What should I bring to an arcade?

Usually just yourself and a way to pay (some arcades still use coins, others use cards or apps). If you're competitive, bring your A-game. If you're social, bring friends or meet new ones over multiplayer games.

What’s the best time to visit an arcade?

Weekdays or early afternoons are usually less crowded — perfect for focused play. Evenings and weekends bring the buzz, especially at barcades or venues with DJs, tournaments, or themed nights.

Can I meet new people at arcades?

Absolutely! Arcades attract a mix of casual players and serious gamers. Whether you're jumping into a four-player co-op or chatting between rounds, it's a fun, low-pressure way to connect over shared interests.

Are arcades still just for kids?

Not at all. While many arcades are family-friendly, there are also adult-oriented ones with full bars, 18+ nights, or vintage nostalgia themes. Arcades today cater to everyone — from first-timers to lifelong gamers.

Are there events or tournaments I can join?

Yes! Many arcades host regular competitions, retro nights, cosplay parties, and more. Whether you're into high scores or just want to watch and vibe, events add an extra layer to the experience.

What if I’m not great at arcade games?

No worries — arcades are about having fun, not being perfect. Try a variety of games, ask others for tips, and remember: the vibe is more “let’s play” than “let’s win.”
