- THTonya Host1 day ago5.0Every time my Sons and I go we have a great experience. My Sons are deaf 23 and 17. The Service, The Food, And All of the Employees we come in contact with are very Friendly, Professional and Helpful.
- PDPinky DeSola1 day ago4.0This place is a cool little spot! For 2 adults and 1 child to eat plus the $30 game card combo deal was $78. We went back and refilled our game card at one point. We got tons of tickets and won a few claw machines. We ended up with almost 5,000 tickets off of $75. They had lots of prizes to choose from and even had big prizes for less tickets. We ended up getting quite a few things with the tickets. Pics below of things we got. The food is really good too! But it can get expensive! They have this cute little cotton candy machine that makes huge art creations with cotton candy. It was awesome! They have Lazer tag, a climbing area and a zip line for kids, bowling, and the best part is the arcade! We spent almost $150 total.

- SGSwt GrimNov 9, 20253.0Fun place tho when I booked my daughters birthday they seemed to over booked we didn't get table until we had been waiting over a hr attendant was very nice and apologetic
- DLDestiny LawsonOct 20, 20251.0Do not have a birthday party here!!! It was absolute chaos. They want you to do everything to a time set schedule but everyone else that’s not included in the party is doing everything as they please. So when it was our time to do lazer tag only a few of our party got to do so. They don’t give you enough time to set your party up, they said you can come 15 minutes before but they also want your guest to come early as well to be prepared for the time set games so you’re setting up your party while guests are coming in. Also they have your party host hold the game cards and she was also in charge of doing other things around the building so when my guests showed up to get the cards I couldn’t find her so my guests had to stand around while I was setting up. Our host was the only thing that made the experience positive by helping me set up and remaining with a positive attitude, she obviously couldn’t help that she had to be in other places because that’s what they told her to do but overall it was a waste of time and money !!!!
