Dinner + Movie - Portal To Hell

Dinner first, then the film

The event is built as a combined dinner-and-movie program in Birmingham, not as a film-only screening. The food portion comes first, followed by Portal To Hell, so the meal and screening are presented as parts of the same event. That format is the main planning point: guests are looking at one evening organized around both dinner service and the movie.

The movie named for the screening is Portal To Hell. No additional film details, participants, runtime, rating, or discussion format are provided, so the useful distinction is the sequence: dinner is followed by the screening. The event name and description both tie the movie directly to the dinner program.

What the dinner includes

The menu is described as a three-course à la carte menu made up of Essential favorites. The description does not name individual dishes, beverages, substitutions, or dietary accommodations, but it does identify the meal structure and the connection to The Essential’s own menu. For planning purposes, the supported food detail is the three-course à la carte format rather than a prix fixe dish list.

Because the dinner is part of the same program as the screening, the menu is not presented as a standalone restaurant reservation in the event description. It is specifically paired with Portal To Hell, with the three-course meal preceding the film. No separate price, ticket tier, or included beverage information is provided.

Location

The featured venue is The Essential in Birmingham. The address listed for the venue is 2215 1st Ave N, Birmingham, AL 35203. The event information ties both the dinner portion and the Portal To Hell screening to that venue, with no second location named for any part of the program.
