  L O N G wait for food & drinks for 2 people. Our server (I think he was also the bartender) was friendly and attentive, and the food, once it finally arrived, was delicious. Unfortunately by the time my salmon made it to the table, my husband was nearly done with his pasta, which was served earlier. We assume maybe the kitchen was shorthanded on a Monday night, as there were few other diners in the restaurant.

  Go for the games. Not the food service. My husband and I took our kids here and we waited over an hour for food. Waited 25 minutes before initially getting drinks. And then waited an additional 25 minutes after we ate just to get the check. They need to revamp their customer service and get a new kitchen manager. Will go back for games. But not to eat.

  This was absolutely the worst Dave & Buster’s I have ever been to. I took my eight-year-old son, who is celebrating his birthday, and he was hardly able to play any game. He wanted to. Over half of the games were broken. After spending almost $100 on the game card, the broken machines still collected payment. I reached out to a manager who Was not going to offer a refund for the credits on the broken machine. He only replaced the credits on my card. I explained to him that there were no games to play with the credits he was replacing, but he offered no other solution. On top of the terrible gaming experience, the bathrooms were absolutely gross. I’ve been to Porta potty‘s at jazz fest in Mardi Gras that were cleaner.I had dinner reservations, there, which I canceled. They were not going to get any more of my money, and if the Food was anything like the gaming experience, I would’ve left furious! thankfully, the city has plenty of other options to eat. I will save my credits on my card for when I travel and go to a Dave & Buster’s That’s clean and nice. Don’t waste your time or money here!

  I've only visited this spot once with some friends and their kids. This is definitely a cool spot for kids and adults that still like to act like kids as they have some very cool video games and other game options. The prices seem to be on the more expensive side for playing the games. The food is mediocre and there are just way too many far better places to eat around New Orleans than to waste your time eating here except lots of kids seem to like the kind of food they have here for whatever barbaric reasons. The HUGE negatives here started with the entire ground floor reeking of weed and that smell continues on up to the next level where Dave & Buster's is located. After arriving inside Dave and Buster's the service was blah, meh and mainly just bad. The crowd here seemed to be mainly adults and older teens taking up most of the video games which seemed odd for a more kid type environment. After the one experience I had here my friends never wanted to make a return visit to Dave & Busters when they were in town so I would assume that is another down vote for their experience. Overall it just seems that this family friendly and kid friendly environment just wasn't family friendly or kid friendly and just had a lot of adults playing the games.
