This review is based upon us always going one day of the week… Wednesdays! Why do we always go on Wednesdays? Thats because all of their games are half off! You definitely cannot beat a great deal like that at any other arcade! Now I use the term arcade lightly because they obviously are a unique hybrid of arcade and restaurant. The food is really good and the games are amazing. What me and my wife usually do is buy our gaming cards ahead of time, sometimes with a buy 20 get 20 free coupon. Then on Wednesday we come in, order our food, and go play games while we wait. They will let you know when your food is there and you can come back and eat. They have the absolute best arcade games you can find and they are constantly upgrading them and changing things around so you never get bored. They also are very generous on the prize tickets on some of the games. All those prize tickets go on your Power Card so you don’t have them falling all over the place. If you haven’t been here yet you should stop reading this review and charge on over and grab a bite and play some games!

We brought a large group of people here and we’re told it would be about 1 hour. After an hour and a half we did not get seated even though about 100 other people in groups up to 6 people walked right in. Terrible service.

Come here if you want to wait 2 hours to eat!!! We were told at the hostess stand the wait as 15−20mins. After 45 we were finally seated. It took another 15mins just to get 2 waters. I am still waiting on our appetizers that were ordered 30 mins ago.

I am impressed at how well this place handles large crowds. You go and find your little skeeball lane and then forget about everyone around you. The food is excellent and the service is top notch.

A good place to go in the winter months. It is like a Chuckie Cheese for adults. I wish they had a better beer selection. The miniature hotdogs appetizer was really good. If you are not careful you can drop a lot of money on the games fast. There is a reason the bathrooms are all the way on the other end threw the entire game room. If you do not like to be around a bunch of kids then go past 9pm.

Usually go for the games, which are awesome, but have recently had some of their(i believe) teryaki chicken and it was awwwesome, just a little salty. Also had(again, I believe) a little bit of every appetizer and they were all really REALLY good. My memory is slightly foggy because at the same time, we also got a 100 oz beer tower…

I have been here numerous times, mostly in the middle of winter when there isn’t much else to do… Or during the middle of the work week when I no longer feel like adulting. Either way, it’s fun for what it is. I’ve never eaten food here, so I can’t comment on that. Drinks were okay, nothing amazing. I do enjoy most of the games, like the giant connect 4 game :) The amount you spend on game tokens can easily add up, but sometimes they had deals. We had a lot of points saved up, until I had one too many cocktails and decided that a super giant stuffed minion from the prize shop was a fantastic idea… :) Overall, I enjoy the occasional dave and busters night.

Not a huge fan of games for tickets but whatever, the place is still great. If you do play the games just realize that the tickets are basically irrelevant since you’re just going to ‘win’ some candy or something equally worthless as a result. So instead just play the games to have fun and give your tickets to some little kid. The food is good and service is good. The servers try to push the game cards a lot which is annoying and I don’t feel like explaining why I don’t want to play games to the server. Tons of TVs if you like sports and whatever you want to watch will probably be on. Overall this is a fun place and I will keep going back.

I’m not a fan of the arcade side of the coin, so it might be irrelevant for me to even leave a review here, but their Cajun Shrimp Alfredo was awesome. It’s tough to justify coming when that’s really the only thing I like here, heh, and because it’s so loud from the arcade I won’t be enjoying that dish too often. If you’re into arcades, or were dragged here by your kids, then may I suggest the Cajun Shrimp Alrfredo?

We had the Makers Mark Wing Sauce which is only available at Dave and Busters, the sauce was smokey and sweet. We love to try any wings that are unique or limited edition. The Wings were fatty, and hard to eat. We wish the quality of the Wing matched the great quality of the sauce.

I’ve only ever been here to play games and drink, so I can’t comment on the restaurant part of this place. I’ve been here a number of times, as it reminds me of the boardwalk where I lived before moving here because it has a few of my favorite games. So, they get nostalgia points right off the bat. However, this Dave and Buster’s is just ok for a Dave and Buster’s — the drinks are just ok(my advice — stick with the basics), the game selection is just ok, and it is a much smaller space than I was expecting. Overall, I’ve been to bigger and better Dave and Buster’s. It is also pretty expensive — I would never want to come here with kids, as I can’t image how much money you would end up spending! We recently had a buy $ 20 worth of game play, get $ 20 worth of game play free. We’ve been here twice on that $ 40 of game play already and still have game play left. So, my advice is look for deals if you go here. We have browsed the«prize» section, and it does have some cool stuff. You can also use your ticket points to get free appetizers, which I though was a nice idea. Overall, it is ok for what it is and I go in knowing that. I still like going here, as I miss CA so it is nice to play some skee ball or Deal or No Deal and reminisce.

This place can be a ton of fun if you go here to play the games. I go here quite often and try to go on Wednesdays when the games cost half as many coins. I usually go here and get a drink and the proceed to play the shooting and racing games, which totally reminds me of when I’d go to arcades as a kid. The food and bar service is very lacking. No matter how busy the place is, it always takes a long time to get your drinks or get any food. The food is not that great either, so I never go here to eat. I really only come here to hang out and play games and I think that if you come here for that reason then you will have a good time!

The food is OK, drinks are a little bit better but not much. And they should invest in some new games.(I did enjoy the zombie game though) not the BEST Dave and busters I’ve been too but not the worst either… It’s a little overpriced for the overall experience. It’s fun if your highly intoxicated but the drinks are so weak here you’ll never come to that point unfortunately. It’s a good place for a first date but other than that, just EH.

While my family was enjoying playing some game after our wonderful meal I got to talk to the waitress and the manager. They were attentive and made our whole party feel at home. I plan on bringing the whole group again because it was a wonderful evening at a descent price. Thank you for making our evening wonderful.

Just took my 2 kids here. The food wasn’t very good, but not awful either. Our server Dwight was very friendly, but the prices were a bit high. All in all, with gratuity we spent about $ 60. That included 148 video game ‘chips’ on 2 cards, because my son and I both got the«Eat and Play Combo». We all had a fun time, but for the money, the food was really lacking.

So disappointed, we went for drinks on my 21st, we only ended up getting 2 drinks each, 2 of the shooters, one tall beer, and a martini. Somehow that cost us 40 dollars, and were pretty weak for the price. So, we decided to just go and spend money on the games. Well around 25 minutes prior to closing on a Friday night, we were approached and told very rudely that«look if you haven’t noticed you’re the only people in here, we’re waiting on you to leave so take your tickets, cash them in, and head out» I can handle over priced drinks, I mean we were at the mall, but to tell people who are spending money on your over priced games,(6.8 points for fruit ninja which I have free on my phone) to leave before 2 when the store is supposed to close is just rude. If your gonna make me spend 65 on four drinks and some games at least be a tiny bit courteous. If it was 1:55 I can understand a little bit of annoyance on their end but 25 minutes and we weren’t even eating or drinking anymore. I’ll stick with 2 for 1 drinks at TGI’s from now on.

If your looking for a dining experience, this is NOT the place to go. The steak was overdone, the chicken tough, and the french fries cold. The shrimp was acceptable. Between the loud music and the noise of the games, conversation consisted of shouting. In fact it was difficult to hear what the waitress was saying. This venue is for kids and young adults who like to play games and care less about food and their hearing. Service was not overly friendly… just doing their job.

They need to get it together at hostess station. They have no clue what they are all doing. Not even the one in charge. Not a manager around. Everyone looks list and figuring out the seating chart. No one to greet you either. Ugh. Very disappointed. It’s ok, TGI Fridays is around the corner. We were greeted, seated right away. Are happily. Not returning.

My girlfriends and I went to Dave and Buster’s to celebrate one of my friend’s birthday. We ordered mild buffalo wings, the Buffalo Bar Chicks, and a roasted turkey avocado BLT. The roasted turkey sandwich was good(who can mess that up), however, my other two friends were unsatisfied with their meal. The buffalo wings came out cold and the sauce was hotter than ordered. The buffalo sandwich also came out cold. All I can say is, we were pretty disappointed with our dinner. Overall, the experience was not that great. I have been to other Dave and Buster’s and never had a problem. Quite sad, really.

My friends and I came to Dave and Buster’s for a girl’s night out. They ordered the original bar burgers, while I ordered the bistro steak and shrimp with lobster alfredo. I also ordered a watermelon margarita, which was quite refreshing. The food is decent, nothing amazing. My only pet peeve about the food, was the service, as we did wait a while for our entrees. The newly built restaurant has a huge bar, where you can sit at and socialize with friends or meet new people. Booths are big enough to come with a group of friends, as well. Although the arcade games are fun, this place is missing a few pool tables for the older crowd. Personally, I could only stand being here for about 1 – 2 hours, as playing arcade games can get a bit tedious; however, I had an overall good experience at D&B.
