My lesson: If you want the Alamo Drafthouse experience, just go to the one in Crystal City. It’s night and day.

Our experience at Crystal City has been hit and miss, but still night and day from Bryant Street if that says anything. I'll give them a pass for a while as they even note during the previews that they are still training new staff.
Our main issue with Crystal City, and theaters in general the last couple years, seems to be with distractions and talking. One of the main reasons we go to Alamo is for the zero tolerance policy. I like that it exists, but having to be distracted talking with waiters to get people kicked out every single time we go kinda ruins the experience. We've been opting more and more to watch things at home, unfortunately. Prior to covid, we went to theaters multiple times a week a lot.

I don't think the Bryant Street one even bothers with honoring those policies.

last time i went to Crystal City, they fucked up my mom’s popcorn order 3 times. we were halfway through Avatar by the time she got the right order. and they don’t have as good of a selection of movies as the other Drafthouse.
