    Cheese burger

    Main Event on a Saturday evening, obviously it's going to be filled up with people wanting to enjoy their night. Our server I believe her name is Asia , was the worst server. Keep in mind she only had TWO tables . The restaurant part was not full , was not busy. - I had a table of 6 people , asked for 6 waters and a beer . Asia came back and said "someone is preparing our water , which took over 20 minutes!!!!! FOR WATER The ice was melted , there were things floating in the cups and a sticky substance on the side. So we ask for new ones and ask if she can take the ones on our table. - The cups sat on the table for the entire time we were there. - She had no urgency to come back and check on anything , did not clear any dishes. - The other table she was serving also had not received their drinks for an extended amount of time. ( Family of 4 ) - Looking from across the room , you could see Asia standing by the bar doing absolutely nothing . The other table has not received any of their drinks and we were still waiting for our new cups of water. - We had to keep flagging her down because she would disappear. - By the time it came to pay , we used the tablet. She kept giving micro aggressions when we were trying to do separate tabs ( we told her in the beginning we are splitting the check ) - Other servers were getting help from other staff members bring food or drinks to their tables . While we kept waiting for Asia to come back with anything at this point. - Burgers were okay , they took about 15 minutes to cook , not worth the 15 dollars. Plastic Kraft cheese.

    Location Grand Prairie just off 161. Parking Large open lot. Atmosphere Restaurant, fun zone with numerous games, bowling, laser tag, ropes course-call ahead to see if its open ( we went on Thursday and it was closed-Tues-Thurs). Service Personable at the counter and bar. Absent in the bowling alley. Had to order at bar-took some time but was friendly when arrived. Menu Large bar, bar food, dessert creations. We had the roasted Brussel sprouts which were really tasty-roasted just right. Served with caesar sauce. Yum. Games Bowling is pay by the hour. The lanes take time to read-not smooth. Laser tag- fun! Ropes course great when open. Summary This place has a-lot of potential. Very fun for groups, families-call ahead for what games are open.

    Games - Huge selection of games but there is no sense in having a huge selection if they can't work properly! There was only one technician available to fix everything from the games to correcting issues at the bowling alley. Why is the leadership not in eating more in staffing or having proper backup ready? Food -This is a huge area of improvement. Staff needs to listen and get orders accurate. We sent our server back 5 times to get orders corrected. If we make an order, the server should check against the order to make sure they have everything before making the long walk to the bowling area. Bar - We ordered a Tito's Mule (Moscow Mule) which is a simple and straightforward drink. What did we get? We got a shot of Tito's! When we had it returned, what did we get? We got Sprite with a huge shot of Tito's! What gives? No ginger beer? We ended ordering beer which can't go wrong. My message to the staff: get it right! Train your staff and don't waste money throwing away food (yes that too went wrong) and drinks which only adds to the added costs for customers. Bowling - Great time even with the lane malfunctioning twice. They made good by giving us extra time. Please get this right Main Event! We want you to succeed.

    We went for bowling today. Enjoyed ourselves as we usually do. The food was hot but sloppy. The alcoholic drinks were sooooo sweet and tasted like there was no liquor at all. Vibe was great. Had fun

    Bowling lane

    Have been bowling here a couple of times and it's okay. The bowling alley is in good condition with no mechanical issues which I appreciate. However, the atmosphere of the televisions behind the lanes playing documentaries was not my ideal as many dealt with heavy topics and I found it hard to concentrate on the fun of the experience. The laneside service was lacking as we waited for about 20 minutes before someone came by our lane to take our order. The worst was we saw them standing on their phone ignoring us the whole time until they could be bothered to stop by with our continual glancing to earn their attention. The prices were also very high for early morning bowling as the place was empty. We have since discovered Pinstack Irving offers morning bowling for a way better deal that is worth the drive. The food is nothing special and is a bit pricey. I was pleased with the gluten free options. Also drink prices range heavily. A mimosa cost us as much as a specialty cocktail so unsure how they go about ringing up orders.

    I'm going to be honest, we didn't experience anything negative from our first visit to Main Event. We had reserved a bowling lane for two hours for 6 people ahead of time. When we got there, we checked in, got our shoes and they escorted us to our lane, they logged us in and we setup each bowler into the system and started bowling. Shortly after that, a server came around and we started ordering food and drinks. The server was great and the food and drinks came out really quickly. We had a blast!! We will definitely be coming back for more bowling. They have tons of other stuff for the kiddos, but bowling will be our thing.

General manager had the capacity to credit account/card that was already paid for a month ago, EVEN WITH our proof of purchase. THEIR system wiped all transactions the day and time we originally visited, but they chose not to give us a refund or provide credits. GM even said he has the authority to give us credits, but he didnt want to. Made us wait for 30 min just to tell us to go through our bank. Visited about a month ago when the system was running into issues. They recommended we try reloading credits into the card to see if it worked, which we did: $110. It didn't work. We came back today (1 month later) to see if the system loaded our card and it never did, but our payment was posted. Looks like the day we originally visited (10/18), the system recorded NO transactions from 12PM-3PM. We provided proof of payment via credit card transaction, but due to them not being able to "verify the transaction" on their end (because their own system was down???) they could not credit our card/account. The GM was absolutely useless and noncooperative even with physical evidence of our payment. He literally told us he has the authority to credit our account, but was choosing not to. Wasted 30 min of our time with no rectification under the guise of "finding proof of transaction" with a system that malfunctioned and couldn't work bc IT team was not even working (on a Saturday). Powertripping leadership with no care for customer experience. Fun venue but lack of service ruined experience

    I had a terrible experience at this Alleycats location with the manager and one of their employees…read more My nephew wanted to go rock climbing and after my sister signed their form my nephew was standing near the rock wall ready to be harnessed when their employee, who already seemed to be in a bad mood since we asked to use the rock wall given it was pretty slow that afternoon (at around 5-5:30 ish), came over and pushed him away from the wall even though my nephew wasn't doing anything. He only apologized once my sister told him not to touch my nephew and that he is disabled (autism) but he never tried to apologize until my sister confronted him. My nephew still wanted to climb as he wasn't aware what that man did to him was unjustified and wrong. My sister went to the manager and explained the situation but the manager (picture below: woman with short black hair and glasses) said that she was watching everything and began saying it was a parents responsibility to watch over ones child, my sister agreed with that and said that either way the man had no reason to push my nephew and that the correct response would've been to talk with her about it. The manager insisted their employee did nothing wrong. My sister recorded everything and told the manager this and also told her she wanted a refund. We went to the front desk and the manager came back with a completely different story now, she said that she spoke with her employee and that he said he never pushed my nephew. My sister then reminded her that she said she had been watching everything. She is a liar who didn't bother looking at the security cameras after my sister asked her to. She never bothered with any kind of apology even though her later statements imply she wasn't present at the time of the incident and she wasn't even sure about what had happened. This was overall a terrible experience that could've been resolved had the manager taken some responsibility and had not tried to justify the actions of a grown man towards a child with autism. This goes to show that they do not care for any child disabled or not. They don't train their employees to handle children with care and respect that they deserve. The employee didn't even know how to properly harness my nephew who despite all his excitement was standing still, he had to ask my sister to help him. From the manager to the red head employee, all of them handled this wrong and I will never come back. I hope everyone is careful with their children in their care given the manager was willing to defend a man who's first instinct is to push a child instead of talking to a parent. My sister was right next to my nephew when everything happened, I was sitting right there too and my nephew's only emotion was excitement even after he was pushed. Do better ALLEYCATS and employ better people for the safety of children.
