Harkins Backlot represents a bold evolution of the 90-year-old Harkins Theatres brand, blending cinema, dining, and social gathering into a single immersive experience. Designed by The Culinary Edge, the full-service dining program centers on Studio Canteen, a high-efficiency kitchen engineered to deliver scratch culinary offerings at scale, from elevated pizza and bakery programs to grill-driven entrées. With a 4,200-square-foot kitchen built for flexibility and volume, the concept balances consistency with experiential impact, supporting everything from daily service to large-scale events. The result is a multifunctional venue that pairs operational rigor with memorable food moments, helping redefine what modern entertainment spaces can be.
