- JCJen C3 days ago2.0This place needs an overhaul- so many of the games don’t work but still take your money. There is a lack of employees- my husband just wanted to get some drinks at the bar and after waiting so long- decided it wasn’t worth it. Luckily we ate somewhere else and then decided to play some games w our adult kids- as eating there I can only imagine what it would be like, since the rest of the place needs work.
- AAAkashaJan 1, 20262.0I took my kid here for new year’s. Many of the machines were completely broken or not functioning properly. Other than that, it was fun.
- CLCyrus LiuJan 1, 20261.0Can't say about food but arcade experience was genuinely disappointing. There was hardly any game that doesn't have something broken about them. The non functional ones at least you can tell before you pay, but theres also the broken sensor, broken controller, out of focus projector which completely ruins the game, down the clown with 1 balls lol...and you only find out after paying.
- JLJoan lernerDec 28, 20255.0Deanna is a gem. It’s a pleasure to see someone with her work ethic, enthusiasm and desire to make a great experience. She deserves a raise, promotion and a puppy.
- KDKarel DriesenDec 12, 20251.0The ticket system is a complete ripoff. They have games advertising thousands of ticket bonusses and when you win them they don't register on your card. You have to make a scene to get them to honor to the reward that their own game screen advertises. I don't like making a fuss to get what is promised to me when I am already paying for overpriced crappy food. This place is the worst type of big franchise casino style rip people off any way you can left and right and just make the experience not too shitty so they will come back, or at least not refuse to when a friend suggests going there. It would have been so easy to just pay out the amounts that the game displays. Instead of that some nickel and dime optimizer figured out that as long as you dont pay out on games that adults don't play such as a shooting game, in this case centipede, there won't be any complaints. Well I am complaining, and I am not ever going back. It is a matter of principle that if you rip me off once, and you are not doing anything to stop ripping off people like me, you will never get my business again.
