    We do continue to frequent Dave and Buster's despite far from marvelous past experiences. One Wednesday night, there was a man present in the arcade wearing a shirt that read "KILL CREW" who had a handgun visible and strapped to his hip. We got the heck out of there SO FAST that night. Super scary ... especially since Dave and Buster's serves alcohol & people frequently indulge too much. Last night. I was eating in a party of 5 with my 2 children among the guests. A drunk lady who was inside an inner tube she had won on the "Human Crane" actually fell into me whilst I was sitting in my booth. This combination of drunken clumsy behavior and firearms in the same environment at the same time is not safe. All of this aside, the reason I am updating my review, primarily, is because of the stellar service provided by our waiter, Braxton, last night. He was genuine and provided excellent service even when presented with the awkwardness of that woman falling on me. We truly appreciated his presentation. He was not at all phony or displaying a superficial personality. We see that all too often from our Dave and Buster's servers so his sincere nature was truly refreshing. When we come back, I hope we have the good fortune of being seated in his section once again. His contributions to our overall experience made the evening so much fun. Thanks Braxton. You, yourself, are a 5 star server.

    Nachos that were so salty
    Glow S.

    This was my first time visiting this location, and unfortunately, the experience was disappointing from the moment we walked in. Upon arrival, we walked through both sides of the restaurant and found no staff members in sight. After several minutes, we had to walk behind the front desk toward the bar area, where someone finally acknowledged us and told us to seat ourselves, as there was still no host present. Once seated, we placed an order for the chicken nachos, which arrived with an overwhelming amount of chips and only a minimal drizzle of cheese. The queso was overly salty--so much so that the dish was inedible. The kids' meals were fine, as were the cauliflower elote and the guacamole with chips, both of which were enjoyable. We also ordered the Philly cheesesteak eggrolls, which were delicious, but the chicken parmesan pasta was another letdown--extremely salty and inedible. After finishing the meal, we waited over 30 minutes for the check, during which time our server never returned to ask about additional drinks or if we needed anything else. We observed several other guests who also appeared frustrated and voiced similar concerns. When we finally spoke with the manager, he explained that only one server was working the entire restaurant and also responsible for taking orders and cashiering. He acknowledged that they don't staff the front desk on Mondays and Tuesdays, which results in guests seating themselves--something that undoubtedly impacts the guest experience. Although the chicken parmesan was removed from our bill, the overall visit was disappointing due to the lack of service, poorly prepared food, and inadequate staffing, especially given that the restaurant was not at full capacity. Manager came back for three game cards for the kids and just apologized. His name was Alex and said that they don't have anybody. They only have one person that's the way our industry has made it.

    Fun night! I was there for a corporate event and I finally got to see the private event room. Spacious and clean from the first look. Our boss paid for some game cards, so I got to play some games. All of the finger food was good. Loved that the buffet line is two sided so 150 of us didn't have to wait long. Service was good. Every server was constantly cleaning up around us, which I appreciate.

    Dave & Buster's was very generous in donating space and food for our recent Make A Wish Foundation volunteer recognition event. The food was fresh and ample, the room was quiet and very well kept, staff were friendly. Food was a little late arriving but otherwise everything was great and be unlimited play cards for the evening were a wonderful and generous touch! Thank you to all involved!

    Pretzel Dogs, Bone-In Wings, Fried Pickles,

    This was our favorite place with the best burgers. We came in hungry for some lunch on a Sunday afternoon. We were told we could seat ourselves anywhere by a server putting in an order at the server station. The two of us sat at a booth and waited about 8-10 minutes for the same server to greet us. She apologized for the extended wait. It was not a problem. We proceeded and ordered a a bacon cheeseburger and pretzel dog bites, fried pickles and wings. After some time the burger was delivered by a different server and after a few minutes our server came by and said, we're just waiting for the rest of your food". I said no problem. I waited for 20 minutes without my food being delivered. I finally called over a different server and asked for the manager. The manager, Jason Hall came over and I told him what had transpired and I asked " how am I still waiting for the rest of my food going on 30minutes now." He was immediately defensive. His response to me was to say, " Because people are human." He proceeded to double down and offered to bring me the food that has been dying in window under the heat lamp for the last 30minutes, saying, " other than bring you the food in the window what else do you want me to do?" I said," I'm not eating food that's been dying in the window for the past 30 minutes." He walked away to take the burger off the check that did make it to the table. When Jason returned he came back a different person.His attitude had changed. He was no longer on the defense. He apologized for coming off the way he did and offered everything he could to make the situation right. Another manager, Dabnee-an apologized to us after as well. While I appreciate and accepted their efforts and apologies I don't believe I would come back nor recommend Dave and Busters. The service and atmosphere is disappointingly subpar.

    Worst customer service ever they're never on time they're super slow. The food in the drinks are always barely made with any positive intent of being good or looking good. The ambience is cool to watch a game if you don't have to deal with a server or a bartender.

    another money shot

    the experience that my family and i had at this d&b location was significantly better than last time's, which is a plus. it took us a couple of minutes for a host to seat us, but thankfully we were seated quickly to mitigate that brief problem. given that it was a late saturday afternoon, it was pretty crowded with plenty of families and pregame friend groups alike. the arcade was also on and poppin', and it can be a bit overstimulating at times but that's the fun of the ambiance. for appetizers we settled on the kickin' chicken potstickers. at first we didn't have any utensils to eat them with, but we flagged down a server who swiftly solved the issue. in my opinion these definitely felt like a more jazzed up version of potstickers that you'd get from the frozen aisle at a grocery store (i mean this in a positive way). i like that they had the chili sauce drizzled on them, it was a pretty nice touch! the cilantro also added a nice flavor and a neat garnish. we all polished those off since they were pretty good. our entrees came pretty quickly! for the entree i got myself a spicy smash burger as it was a new menu item and i have an achilles heel when it comes to anything spicy. compared to most chain restaurants, this was one of the rare instances where a dish that was advertised as spicy actually fit the bill; no red 40 dye here! my meal reminded me of burger-fied nachos; from the spicy cheese sauce, the pickled jalapenos, and the patty that had an abundance of taco seasoning. not that i'm complaining; the usage of the taco seasoning definitely hits a nostalgic spot in my heart. while the burger itself was pretty damn tasty (this was one of the rare occurrences in which i didn't have to take home leftovers since i ate my whole meal), it was definitely heavy and it would probably taste like gold while you're completely wasted. then again, d&b is essentially the grown-up equivalent of a chuck e' cheese. overall, the service was stellar and the food exceeded my expectations. 'till next time, d&b!

    Fun day outing with the kids today . While looking to beat the heat and boredom. When we opened the doors it was a bit overwhelming and with only one cashier at the counter the line was pretty slow. We'd never been before so we were a little confused how the process went. There is a sign explaining how many points/coins whatever you can purchase. Prices are pretty crazy to me especially if you have a larger family. For two kids we spent $60 for 300. They were done after a little more than an hour. So keep that to mind. We found some seats near the bar and enjoyed the nachos appetizer and drinks while they played. The nachos were some of the best I've ever had. They were plated well and tasted phenomenal. Service was good and pricing refilled multiple times. Great place for some fun and food, but again a bit pricey.

    NO ONE has been here for the past 18 minutes. Such poor service. Going to take my business somewhere else.

    Fried GPT was definitely reheated. Part of the fries were cold, and the other part of the fries was warm. The drink tasted like markers.

Vanessa said she didn't think the Beyond Burgers were available anymore. She goes to check and comes back and said they are still available, . We all ordered cheeseburgers with the Beyond patties. We had to modify it without cheese or mayo but we all wanted the caramelized onions. My sister wanted verification that the onions were cooked and Vanessa said that they were. When we got our food which took a long time to get; it was luke warm and no caramelized onions. Vanessa said the cheeseburger doesn't come with caramelized onions! What?! My husband went and got the menu and it clearly states the cheeseburger comes with carmelized onions. I needed a knife to put mustard on my burger but none of us got any sliverware, napkins or coasters for our beers which were sweaty. After waiting for 10 minutes to get silverware my husband got up and got silverware from the bar. Now my lukewarm burger is cold as well as my fries. We asked for the manager and he did bring us caramelized onions in a to-go cup. Plus we got to-go containers to take our food home and reheat it. My sister and I waited tables when we we were young and had a whole lot more common sense. We did tip Vanessa but not nearly as much as we normally do. TP clearly hires based on looks and not brains. Vanessa is one of the worse waitresses we have experienced in a long time.

We ended up playing Pickleball for 30 minutes and got kicked off the court after reserving it for an hour and there was a mistake.

It doesn't really make it better, but at the end of the day, he definitely made it better and we do appreciate it so we definitely recommend this place.
