    I understand that it's the holidays and restaurants can get busy but this place honestly wasn't even that crowded. We were seated quickly and everything seemed fine at first but after that the service really went downhill. It took about 15 minutes just to get our drinks. We ordered our food which took around 20 minutes to come out but when it arrived we weren't given any utensils. After waiting another 10 minutes for utensils my food was already cold. I ordered a burger and on top of everything they were extremely stingy with the napkins basically none were provided, so I had to rush to the restroom. Waiting close to 45 minutes total with only a moderate amount of people in the restaurant is pretty crazy. Overall the slow service really ruined the experience. Note everything took forever so I was hungry hungry lol

    Bistro Steak & Shrimp Alfredo Pasta

    Perfect spot for watching football games. Tons of TVs everywhere and plenty of space, so no matter where you sit, you've got a clear view of the action. The sports bar vibe was on point and made game day feel exciting. Food-wise, they were out of a decent amount of items, which was a little disappointing, but what I did get delivered. Ordered the bistro steak and shrimp Alfredo pasta and cleaned the plate--every single bite. Solid portions and very satisfying. After eating, we hit the arcade. It was definitely crowded, but with so many games, it was still easy to jump on the ones I wanted without too much waiting. It is a little on the pricey side, but honestly, it's worth it once in a while--especially for a fun day or night out with friends or family. Great for game days when you want food, sports, and entertainment all in one place.

    The service is ok. If you get the Eat and Play Combo know it does not come with a drink. Food comes out separately as they make it, I guess. This is definitely not a place for eating. I think it would be more of a playing only.

    Was in town on Labor Day. One of few places open. Learned that when even a bar establishment doesn't have prices for their drinks on the menu, beware. $30.99 for a 12 oz margarita and $26.99 for an extra shot of tequila? My bad but never again Buster. Dave B.

    The food is surprisingly decent if you want a food break after playing few rounds of dance dance revolution with come glasses of cold beer. The games are alright, but a good decent amount of them don't really work anymore, and the prizes are not a great quality and is too pricy (costs more tickets than necessary).

    Husband and I were in VA beach for the week. It was a brutal heat wave and we wanted something to do during the day after visiting the Aquarium. This Dave & Buster's is in a mall, it has its own entrance near the Macy's parking lot. The arcade was clean and appeared to be well maintained. All of the games were working. We had a couple of happy hour drinks at the bar. Our bartender was nice and made our drinks quickly. Since it was midday there weren't many people there so we roamed around, played games, and enjoyed our time inside from the sun. This Dave & Buster's looks like it would be a great place to hold birthday parties, or family functions. They have a bar/restaurant and numbered private party rooms.

    First time here had always planned on coming & never did. So came here for my 10 yr olds birthday today! Got here around 9:20 ish on a Sunday i love that they're open until midnight! - my 10 yr old is homeschooled so to be out on a Sunday late is doable for us The food was so good! Everything we ordered was fine nothing was wrong i did initially order fish & chips but they were out of fish no biggie will get that next time, so i got half rack of ribs slaw and fries. The prices are ok same they would be at any arcade/bar, nice crowd not packed or anything! We will be coming back. Our server Molly was amazing!!

    New menu

    Good food , they got a new menu as of this week but alot of games were down or out of service. I swiped my card for a few games and the game took my chips. I got tired of looking for someone everytime I played a game because it was stealing my chips.

    Service is terrible. We come here strictly for the air hockey and basketball games. Game play is half off one Wednesdays. I like that you can get a digital play card within the app and a free $15 in play the first time you download. Drinks are as to be expected and its hard as heck to track down a bartender although they are just standing at the end of the bar socializing. It's honestly kinda of gross and sticky here. Sucks because I've been to other Dave and Buster's locations and had wonderful service and food.

    Been here years ago when my kids were in town. Was back the other day after visiting (rhymes with latex) Entertainment in VB town center where in comparison the arcade games were dated. Here at Dave and Buster's there clearly is a larger following for their variety of large interactive arcade games. The entertainment isn't for kids, as there are grown up monitors showing live sports games. I sat at the bar thinking I'd get faster service - and it was! I was quite surprised that the food is good - the grilled chicken was seasoned well, the avocado slices were meaty, fresh and ripe and the fries could rival your McD's fries but less healthy for you salt!

    Do they have Billiards at the Lynnhaven Dave and Busters?

    No they removed them

    Is dave and busters good for a group lunch? And not play games?

    Yes, they have a very nice bar area that would typically work fine. They also have some areas that can be reserved, I believe.

The bar is sexy! It's not a full U shape, but it's a good size. Plenty of seating and airy! If you choose to dine from the menu you can or you can order the buffet (next door) from Captain George's. I am not a fan of buffet's, so when I ventured out with my husbae and friends, I opted to order from the menu. I ordered a simple salad and the scallops for my meal with two sides. My meal was so good! The scallops were not free of grit, but it was limited. I would order the meal again. But my favorite part of the restaurant, is the atmosphere. I noticed sound boxes at the booths. We sat at tables in the center and I do not believe sound boxes are portable for those tables. The vibe was still cool! Usually checking out sports or anything on TV, no sound is really needed. If sound is needed, you would go to a quieter place, right?! Nevertheless, the waitstaff and bartender were on point throughout the night. This was a Wednesday night and it was still a pretty good crowd out. Surprisingly, but it was a good time and the waitstaff did not miss a beat! Check them out if you are in the area. Especially if you like an upscale bar atmosphere type vibe... this is your spot. Happy Hour specials on drinks and food are featured daily. I cannot wait to visit again :) Be safe ~ have fun ~ enjoy life :)

It was a beautiful evening. Our server was Lauryn, and she was great. She was nice and attentive but not worrisome. We had the Wisconsin Cheese Curds along with the house made Sangria. As an entree, I had the whiskey burger with truffle fries. I really liked the cheese curds; they're a lot flavorful than traditional mozzarella sticks. The house made sangria was really good too! We had to stop ourselves from just sucking it down. The burger is where I had the issue. It was a little on the dry side.... Too well done despite asking for medium. It also wasn't seasoned well. The only flavor rally came from the bbq sauce and onion straws. The truffle fries were good though. The menu said they won't best burger of Virginia Beach, and that was made me get a burger. Not the best burger I've ever had. Next time, I will try the pizza and probably go to the Shore drive location since that is closer to my house. Again, the vibe, service, and scenery was worth the drive.. the food not so much.

I ordered fish and chips, my sister got cheese steak, and my friend got wings. My fish looked good. It was a little bland but I'm glad they gave me hot sauce and tartar sauce to help. It was fried hard like I requested. It was ok. The coleslaw was flavorless, but we're in a bar so I didn't expect Michelin star food. Lol. The fries were a little overcooked. My sister enjoyed her cheese steak, she said the pickled jalapenos made it pop. My friends wings were simple but decent. A little extra lemon pepper seasoning would have took them up a notch and gave them more flavor. We stayed a few hours and enjoyed ourselves. It wasn't so loud that we couldn't hear each other talk. So that was a plus. They have a few dart games, pool tables, and a quarter pusher game. The staff was friendly. It's a neighborhood bar so you'll see the same people normally. A decent time for sure.
