    My experience at Dave & Buster’s today wasn’t great. The food came out cold, which was really disappointing, and the games felt overpriced for what you get. The atmosphere is decent, But the service was awful, Overall, It wasn’t the fun day I expected, and I don't see myself coming back here.

    Games are very expensive to play.You have to buy a card.You'll go broke if you have two kids.I can't even imagine if you have more than that You'll need to take out a 2nd mortgage. I only go to get the cotton candy.They have a machine in there.I get that and leave because I like my money too much🤣

    I went to d&b sat night, these may be small things ,but ive been in the food industry for tpo many years, it took about 10 minutes for someone to help me, I sat at the bar, I decided to order a steak with rice and cole slaw, ok, now the steak had a weird taste, It must be a gas grill ,but I couldn't eat it all, close slaw was warm and had no flavor whatsoever, it should have been served in a small dish, not on the plate with hot food, I thought the rice was going to be rice pilaf, was bland white rice. Also again small but they had to go back and get a steak knife, if your serving steak,wouldn't you grab a steak nice, ,I asked for salt, never came, the waitress was gone 75% of the time, im not sure if going back and forth to the kitchen ? But had to be the worst experience, I will go back for games, but will never get food again,$26.00 for steak, and I could have paid less and did a better job at home.

    After sitting at the bar and waiting 22 minutes while the bartender ate some food and completely ignored us she finally came over. She asked us what we wanted and walked away. She continued to eat while another bartender came up. They talked for a few and the second bartender started making our drinks. She was interrupted by the first bartender and had to stop making our drinks to go to the back room to get supplies. She came back, cleaned some trash and finally brought us our drinks. In all it took over 45 minutes for us to get our drinks. I cannot wait to see how long it will take for us to get our check. Completely unacceptable and will never return.
