    Extra charge for refills....wow!!! Proof of our nite here.

    Wow, lots of low reviews. I should have read em b4 coming here. The quality has really dropped. The food tasted horrible. Fries were cold, nachos looked poor. Fish chips and salmon were tasteles and greasy. Alcoholic drinks were weak. Drank 3 long island and didnt even get a buzz....nothing. games were a rip off. Not the fun time we wete used too. Wont be back anytime soon. Find a better place to spend a grt time.

    Crispy Chicken Strips

    Food was terrible I ordered "crispy chicken strips" but it wasn't even crispy. It was so bendy and felt so rubbery. it did not look appealing.

    Just got here and we're playing various games. Fun!!! A lot of parking, clean restrooms, and nice staff, but not very friendly. Hannah and I are trying to keep up with the testosterone boys!!! Not eating this time, but we'll return for the food next time. We've eaten at the Dave & Busters in California so we know what to expect. As I was leaving, three girls dressed for the club scene; one had on an extreme my low cut blouse-ok for a club, but not Dave & Busters where children are allowed. She was trying to cover up, but it didn't help. Poor woman was blushing and embarrassed. I guess it was her first time here. Other than that, we had a great time! Right now on Wednesdays they have 1/2 price games! Thank goodness!

    After years of waiting... we finally got our own Dave & Buster's in the valley! This place is jam packed with games, LOTS of big screen tv's with all sorts of sports available to watch, and fantastic food!! This place showcases what the arcade has evolved to. State of the art games, Over the top burgers, pizza, wings, and all the fixings, but just wait... D&B's takes it a step further than your standard sports bar foods... they offer quality foods such as steaks, ribs, fish platters, barbecue platters and much more! If your craving a refreshing cocktail, (they tell me) the drinks here are equally over the top when it comes to their mixed drinks and creativity. Overall, with whoever you find yourself with this weekend, Dave & Buster's has a little for everybody! Come and Enjoy!

    Finally a DB!!! Being from Cali this has been a GoTo for parties, meetings, or a long day after work kinda day. I've always been a fan of the food menu...but yesterday first time visiting DB i was quite disappointed!!! Ordered the Philly Burger with fries and the Mountain Nachos. burger was so bland..no sign of salt or pepper at all. if it ain't messy and dripping some grease, it ain't good. Nachos were okay...big to share. maybe we came just before kitchen was closing...but idk...wasnt satisfied

    Grilled chicken lettuce wraps, avocado toast, green chile chicken tacos, pepperoni pretzel bites.

    Sept 8, 2019 We decided to try a light lunch at 1:00 that turned into full scale meal when we wanted to try several items. Great plate presentation! Really enjoyed my first time here. Not pictured was the cheese curds...ate them before I remembered to take a picture, oops. Avocado toast is a must try, loved it. Will come again for the lettuce tacos :)

    Really sad service. It was our first time and the server was rude. We left right away.

    Service was spot-on but good was warm not hot. Even after it was sent back it came back tepid. It will be a while before we go back again.

    Decent food, poor service! Overpriced, need to replace broken dishes!…read more Nice view of sunset, live music is good addition

    If I could give this a 0 star rating, I would. My friends and I got in around 9pm to celebrate our…read morefriends birthday. Before even stepping in, we specifically asked if there was a cover to enter when the person at the front said "oh yes there's covers upstairs." We said "no, do you have a cover charge?" And they responded back "no." My friend group and I then decided to hang out a bit and see what this spot was all about. We ordered multiple drinks and even ordered food, just enjoying ourselves upstairs. We were there prior to the DJ setting up so once he started playing music, we were dancing and having a really great time!! All of a sudden, 2 security guards (who had been upstairs for about 45 minutes plus before even speaking to us) finally decided to approach us where they had stated we needed to go downstairs to get a wrist band before 10pm... when it was already after 10, closer to 10:20pm. Confused but not wanting to cause a scene, we decided to go downstairs to get our "wristband". Once downstairs, we were approached by who I assume would be the manager- scrawny, gray-haired older man- who was already obviously annoyed of our group for some reason. He made us show our ID AND get a hand stamp before "re-entering". We asked why this was suddenly an issue and all he could come up with was "the stamp is to allow you entry coming in and out." Again, not wanting to start a scene or be a problem, we still got the wristband and hand stamp- which is very weird might I add. I have never been to a bar where I get in before the cover charge and then is hunted to get a wristband to prove I was in the bar before 10 or I'll be forced to pay for the cover. My friend group and I are young, but of course over 21, so I'm unsure what this whole issue was about. The older man who practically forced us to get these wristbands well after the fact of being there left such a bad taste in our mouths that we decided to leave. Beware of this place if coming in before the cover charge! Again, not sure what the reasoning was for all this. We tried asking out of curiosity but was told to "not give attitude or we'll be thrown out." Consider spending your money somewhere else that is more worthwhile.
