    The pros: unlimited claw machine and arcades. They have food and a bar with reasonable prices…read more Negatives: first bowling game played the game reset itself. Second game the game didn't record the score correctly. This place is ran by a bunch of kids so they are pretty much hanging out the whole time. The bartender went on break from 11:30 -12:30 for some odd reason. I stood at the front desk trying to get help for 10 min and i walked over to the door and all the employees were hanging out goofing off. They called security on me and told me the manager was gone and no one could help me. Place is really cool but sucks it's poorly managed. I can see why it has low stars

    The service for mechanic being available is reasonable on this busy Saturday. Seems it can be an…read moreinteresting but tiring job too. Thank you for doing it! There are new items advertised that I really wanted but the worker I spoke with didn't know how to make them, they only allow orders on the kiosk, and the kiosk didn't have the new items. I tried to tell the service desk about the missing items so that the food workers can just simply say if this location doesn't offer the new items yet rather than tell me to keep looking at the kiosk and rather than have a mini physical billboard showing. One of the workers assumed I didn't want to wait in line and I wasn't trying to order food at the game desk. I was just trying to let someone else know besides the one food worker I spoke with because the food worker didn't have access to taking notes or calling someone up to make note of the issue or to even know to say that they did not have access to add to the menu electronically (whether that is actually true or not lol). There needs to be a better system for people who try to give honest feedback to help things run more smoothly for relative anomalies like this. This Round 1 is convenient and I can understand them selling out of a figure I wanted but some of this other stuff , especially with the notification I offered, could've been handled better. I like Round 1 more than Dave and Buster's but I like other Round 1s more than this one. It is less likely I stop at this one unless it is on my way enough. With the parking hassle, needing to know which one entrance is open because sadly the mall is not doing well, makes for a kinda shaky experience. Sincerely, an interested customer that is probably annoying for trying to calmly point out a few problems in-person in brief but then writes these annoying reviews lol

    Haven't been to a Dave and Buster's in yearssss. As with many things, we were looking for a place…read morethat would have some fun stuff for our little to enjoy and eat, while also having a place to watch the FIFA match with food and drinks for us. We figured most places would be crowded since it was the Haiti vs. Brazil match which was happening in the city that night - the city was buzzing! My boyfriend suggested D & B and I was game. I made a reservation just in case - glad I did as many people ended up coming in. Now a will say there a couple things that has us making the face of the swaggy p meme: the first escalator going up working but the next one so we took the elevator the steps the rest of the way up to the restaurant; we would've the elevator, but the person passed out/laying on the ground threw our little one off a bit (hope that person is okay!)!; and when taking the elevator down when we eventually left later that night, we weren't sure if it was working since it didn't light up and didn't seem like it was moving at a point - it was fine though. Outside of those things, we had a pretty good time! Lol Food was typically bar food and good for us, though we weren't fans of the Cheesesteak egg rolls. Drinks were made well, and our little one said she enjoyed her food too. Of course, we had to head over to the games after eating and we had a blast! We initially had issues with the card at certain games, but it eventually was fine and we were able to play at every game we wanted. Because of our little one, I think we played and tried out almost every game in there. Overall, we had a good time and would consider coming back.

    Something is just not right with this place. When you walk in on the side that faces Columbus Blvd…read more The entry way is just way too sketchy, like they just figured "Hey, no one is really gonna come this way." There's a broken escalator, an elevator that you're not sure either works or goes to the top, and railings that feel like someone left goo on them 12 years ago. To get to the play area, you're led through dimly-lit corridors, and half filled table areas. When you get to the games, there are a bunch that don't work and you find more not working only after you redeem credits to play. And then you have to wrestle with yourself to say, "Should I find someone and tell them about it or maybe it's just not worth it." The place is just ripe with the smell of failure and it looks like they're riding things out before either selling or closing up shop. Oh, and the men's bathroom was a steam bath with water surrounding some of the toilets. Well... that was fun!
