- SLSteven LaFeirFeb 18, 20262.0Many machines are broken. The food is worse than airplane food. I had a bland rice and beans side and this overcooked chicken pasta. I wish they gave me a microwave dinner cause it was somehow worse.
- ARAdrian ReyesFeb 17, 20263.0It was very good and the food truck was amazing the games were good too just wish they had a bigger selection!
- RHRyan HahnFeb 16, 20265.0This was a great alternative, rather then going to a over crowded bar. The games were fun and price fair. Drinks were served quick.
- MSMohammed ShafaatFeb 10, 20263.0I always enjoy playing foosball here. The arcade games are fun, the vibe is lively, and the bar itself is really good. Perfect place to hang out with friends and have a good time. It would be great if they could also accept digital IDs like Apple Wallet, since it’s a legal form of identification.
- JAJosie AdamsJan 21, 20261.0My friend went here and had a TERRIBLE experience! A man working there wouldn’t give her, her friend, or her boyfriend any coins for the games when they each separately asked. Really weird behavior, especially because my friend and the people she was with are black, and the man that denied them coins is white.
