    Very upset i always go here for my 9 kids birthdays ! They changed the packages to where you don't get arcades games and you pay more ! On too of it they even add another fee of 25$ which never had that before ! I mean why the extra 25 for ! Don't make any sense and the place barely has rides! And took arcades games off some of the packages like what a waste of money so upset the whole thing sucked !Cici was awesome our party host was the sweetest ill give that ! And Drew absolutely amazing my kids love him

    Me and my family used to come here when I was a kid but before and after Covid it unfortunately lost its spark and we stopped going for years. But after the new owners arrived and they actually showed passion and pure kindness to ACTUALLY put an effort into renovating this into a fun happy place for kids, teens, and adults once more. Trust me when I say it may not be the same as Amazing Jake's years ago, it surely has so much more now. From food to games and even prizes to win there is SO MUCH MORE! And I love to see the new owners actually do this for the community and the kids too, and it shows in their work and what they've done. Inside is very very spacious and has so so many things to do and play. You can play games that other Arcade places make you pay extra to do, from digital games and physical games they are sooo fun. Workers were very nice and clear, let us know all about the cards and different prices. Food was good, I love how all the workers kept everything very clean, if something spilt it would be wiped right away. I also love how there's a movie room for kids and also a separate room for sport channels for adults. There's also screens outside too for parents who want to watch something while also being there to supervise their kids playing. This is a really good place to take your kids, a hangout for teens, birthday parties, family gatherings and honestly anyone. You can come in to eat and watch tv or come to play games! It's really considerate to all and I appreciate that they do that. I had so much fun here with my family we will definitely be coming back again.

    Great fun for all ages. Had an absolute blast yesterday at Jake's. Can't wait to go again. Fun games, rides, food.

    This trip was a random idea one day and not for a party. My daughter had been asking to go here for a while and we finally decided to check it out. I bought discounted tickets ahead of time which I thought would save us time, but not really. There was definitely a staffing shortage and not enough people to run all the rides, but the people that were there were bouncing bavk and forth so the kids could rude everything. There was a good amount of games for kids to play ad well. My favorite is always the clown game :) The buffet was so so, like most buffets. My kids wanted pizza and cookies. My husband and I tried the salad and pasta. It wasn't too bad, nothing spectacular though. My biggest problem was the lack of any supervision near the food. Kids run rampant in this place and no one is watching. That is a parenting fail, obviously. But the food is unsupervised so kids are running up and grabbing cookies in an unsanitary way and ice cream was everywhere! Full cones of ice cream were being dropped on the floor with no one to notice or pick up. Would we go back? Probably not. It was more than I want to pay for the experience I had. My husband and I also had food poisoning afterwards, which seems normal for a buffet.

    I've been here a few times, once for a birthday party. It's a pretty big place with arcade games, bowling, laser tag, VR games, and even some small carnival rides, like Merry-go-round, and bumper cars. There's even an all you can eat and drink buffet included in the package. Usually it's pizza or pasta, salad bar, cookies. Even have ice cream soft serve. Lots of pizza choices. You can basically spend the whole day there. A very good deal.

    We had an amazing experience. We purchased the Groupon which was $37.50 per person and got unlimited rides and games and $40 on the claw machine (swipe) games. The rides are all excellent. Food isn't high end but perfect for kids! They have pizza, pasta, salad (need to have more fresh salads), baked potato, cookies and ice cream machine. Fruit is all canned which wasn't great. They also have bowling, laser tag, and a VR area. You can easily spend 8 hours here with the kids. Awesome place!

    Salad dressing spoiled over a week ago. Smelled terrible

    I've been coming here over 10 yrs. The quality has dropped so much. The food is gross. The salad dressing expired over a week ago. I got chips because I figure they were safe. Expires in 2 days. Is everything in the kitchen expired? The salad smelled could not eat it. The pizza had nothing on half the slices. I spent over $200 on 2 $130 wrist bands. $18 for me to just watch and over $100 on ticket games. I won't be back I pray we don't get sick. I brought it to 2 employees about the salad dressing they finally pulled it. Many games are broke you can't find employees to help

    Our family recently had the pleasure of visiting Jake's Unlimited for the first time, drawn in by their Teacher's Night promotion. We are thrilled to say that we will definitely be returning, as our 3.5-year-old daughter had an absolute blast. We were there for about 5 hours and my daughter not once asked to leave and kept entertained. We went on a Friday afternoon and stayed until closing time on an event date and it wasn't packed at all. We didn't wait in that long of lines for much other than a short line for prime dinner time. Entertainment: * Rides: Our daughter couldn't get enough of the merry-go-round and tea cups, riding them multiple times. The carnival-style rides are perfect for younger children. * Bowling: We introduced our daughter to bowling during our visit. Jake's provides a device that helps kids roll the ball, which was a hit. The lightest ball available is 8 lbs, which was manageable for me as an adult, but seems heavy for younger children. The upbeat music kept our daughter's attention throughout the bowling game. Additionally, another nice feature is that the bumpers are available and can be set to appear automatically for those who need them. * Arcade Games: There's a vast selection of arcade games suitable for all ages. Our pass included unlimited play on non-ticket games, and we found plenty to enjoy. While we didn't try laser tag due to having a toddler and baby with us, it's another activity available for older children and adults that would be fun. Food: The food was great for the type of setting and it being at an entertainment center catering to adults and kids. I will say, the thought did venture my mind that this was my first buffet since Covid and the thought of all the people, especially kids hands touching the serving food utensils did give me a little cringe feeling! There were several areas to sit and each area had a different theme, which was so cool! The theatre room had a large screen with movie playing, the sports themed room had sports on the TV, etc. There were multiple pasta options, various salads with different dressings, and several soup choices. The dessert selection included ice cream, cookies, sopapilla chips, and Rice Krispy treats. The ice cream was good, the other options were just okay as I prefer super soft cookies over these. The food was replenished in a decent time frame when we sat and ate around 6-6:30pm. There's also a separate area offering additional ice cream treats and candies for an extra charge, though we didn't see many customers using this section during our visit. Overall: We had an unforgettable time at Jake's Unlimited. The combination of engaging entertainment options and satisfying food makes it an ideal destination for families, especially those with younger children. We highly recommend it and look forward to our next visit.

    My friends had their daughter's 3rd birthday party here this past Sunday. They booked the VIP Bowling Suite room from 12-1:30pm. I believe they purchased the Elite party package which starts at $600+tax and includes up to 10 players. Each additional player is $60+tax and each additional diner is $15+tax. My friend said they spent around $1,000 for everything here. The room is a good idea for large groups so that you have a dedicated area for friends and family to gather and eat. You also have a dedicated party waitress. She was very helpful and went over everything with my friends at the start. She was attentive. She brought pizzas, pitchers of sodas, plates, napkins and anything anyone had asked for. For the pastas, salads and soups, we walked to the buffet area to grab them. We were given some time to eat before they did cake, which was a little after 1ish. Afterwards, they gave all the kids wristbands to go play. The place is very different from what I remember back in the day. There is now a bar and a bowling alley (not sure if that was there before?). Food is still whatevers. Needs a little upgrade. The pizzas that were brought to the room were good and crispy but the pizzas in the buffet area were not good at all. Tomato bisque wasn't bad but the broccoli and cheddar soup was bland. Pastas were cold when I grabbed them but not horrible. As I was walking around while watching over my friend's daughter, I noticed lot of the arcade games were broken. Many were out of service and some of them didn't work with her wristband. Some of the older kids said the wait for laser tag took a while and VR was a 2hr wait! Overall, might be a good spot for the young ones but for the older teens and adults, it's not worth it

    How are the services?

    How are the services? If you mean by how's the staff they're helpful and informative. The buffet was laid out perfectly. Food was great.I didn't book a birthday party so I'm not sure how those services are exactly.

    Do i have to pay extra if I want to bowl or laser tag?

    Laser tag no. Bowling, not sure, but I don't think so.

    Does Jake's Unlimited have a gluten free menu or options?

    The day we were there yes they had 2 or 3 gluten free items

    Where is the laser tag? I was just there a few weeks ago and walked around the whole building and didn't see laser tag.

    It is all the way in the back wall close to the bumper cars.

I am enjoying the resurgence of arcade bars here in the Valley. Since moving to Mesa, I have been making stops here at Level One Arcade Bar. I love the chill vibe and their selection of classic arcade games. Games use tokens or quarters that you can get from the token machine. Level One Arcade Bar is a two-story venue and has a wide array of pinball machines and arcade games. They opened in 2019 in Downtown Mesa and have a Valley Metro light rail stop nearby. Each floor features its own bar with each of them having around 30 beers on tap. The second level has majority of the pinball machines. You will find me playing classics like 1943, Galaga, Mortal Combat, Tekken 3, Area 51, Mario Bros and Street Fighter. I am also a big pinball junkie. They have darts here at Level One and we have had fun playing them when I have come here with groups of friends. Check out the speakeasy behind the building if you want to hang out in a cool 20s vibe atmosphere with a cocktail. It is called Alchemy 48.

The place was pretty empty when I came in and I was able to play two games of Ms Pac Man and enjoy my beer at the same time. They also put little side tables by the arcade, so you have a place to set down your drink as you play. Lots of old school video games here including Tetris and Dr Mario! I'd definitely come back again when I feel like playing a few rounds of my favorite arcade game! Parking available on the street, bathrooms located on both floors.
