Downtown is where it all begins and now the AMC Mainstreet theatre offers late night dining complete with a full bar. I have been to Mainstreet a couple times, but this was the first time I went in just with the intention of dining at Marquee Bar & Grill. Upon entering it seems there are many servers eager to assist us. We were quickly seated and informed of the specials. We went on a Wed night which meant cheap drinks, 1/2 price appetizers before 7pm and 1/2 price burgers. Splitting meals for two we ordered one appetizer – the waffle nachos and a burger with cheddar cheese.

Wait time was the average in receiving the food. The nachos were a little disappointing. I did not care for the combination of all the toppings with the chili on top, could have done without it. It added a bit much to the flavors. The hamburger was cooked to perfection and was pretty tasty for a burger, sided with waffle fries which were a crispy golden brown. I did not have dessert on this visit, but I have had the cheesecake before and it was delicious. Cheesecake was very creamy and fluffy, topped with the sweet strawberry sauce. A perfect way to end any meal.

Due to the happy hour specials our dinner was at a valued price, but at other times prices are a little on the higher end. The restaurant was beautiful, newly remodeled with comfortable seating and large open windows & doors offering tons of natural lighting. Would not be my first dining choice Downtown, but with its decent happy hours and late night crowds it should be a hit.
