- GCGenette CNov 12, 20254.0We had a birthday party of 6 with bowling, arcade, and dinner with hamburgers/ fries, chicken fingers, and churros. Food was dried out, lukewarm and tasteless. Hostess Adyline was amazing -- very attentive and sweet. Bowling was great, Arcades great - except couldn't win tickets with birthday package. Next time would skip the food and buy better arcade card deal, if available.
- LBLinda BodeNov 11, 20255.0We didn't do anything there except the Verse Immersive. It's a holographic theater. When you go in, the room is empty, blank walls. It's augmented reality. They put a helmet on you then start the program. There are a few different programs. You choose whichever program you want. Everyone in the room can be doing a different program at the same time. You can see the other people and talk to them, but they can't see what you're seeing. I was awful at it, but it was so much fun. We all loved it. We all highly recommend it.
