    I had a great experience here! I tried to do walk in for bowling and they said it was a 45 minute wait. The wait ended up being so enjoyable though since there's a full bar and restaurant and even ping pong! The machines were yummy also. Bowling was fun, I appreciated all the tech integrations

    Came with the office for a bowling night. The place had a great atmosphere and looked really cool, I really enjoyed the overall experience. The food wasn't as good as I expected. Great place for big groups.

    Finally made it over as we just came from wicked haunted Boston. That event was alright, probably better for bringing your young ones to have fun. Not scary haha. But attached next door is urban wild! We came in to hang out and grab some drinks while we kill some time and get out of the rain. bowling, shuffleboard, ping pong, corn hole. Plenty of free games to do with your group. We grabbed some draft beers and played games. Bartenders were quick, slow night for waiters walking the floor so no big deal. Chill spot, parking in garage is free under 3 hours.

    Urban Wild in Charlestown is worth checking out! It's a great place to go to if you're looking for a chill spot where you can bowl, play some ping pong, and shuffleboard! We had a couple rounds of shots & some beers, then went at it in pong haha. We didn't get to try the bowling due to time, but definitely looking for to bowling here some time soon. Parking is also available at the parking garage, first 3 hours is free!

    Came here on a weeknight evening and the place wasn't busy at al - plenty of seating in the restaurant area. We grabbed one of the booths by the mural wall and were serviced pretty quickly which was nice - the interior is decorated pretty uniquely with the art and the overall vibe. The menu had your typical American fare and ultimately we ordered an app for the table, one of the large drinks to share, and most of us got sandwiches/burgers since there weren't many other options. The food didn't come out too slowly which was nice, however they did forget one of our meals so one of us ate after the rest of us had finished. They did give us a pretzel as a free app to apologize which was surprising and nice of them (we didn't ask for it) - the taste of everything though was mid at best. The nacho toppings were disproportionate which was a bit disappointing, the pretzel dipping sauces were pretty bland, and the burger size was very small compared to the cost. Our server was also extremely pushy seemingly to just get a bigger bill - she kept overhearing our conversations about shots and getting a cake so when it came time to take our order, she'd constantly bring those points up to put us on the spot to order. A little off-putting even if she was nice. Overall, I had an okay time - I probably wouldn't eat here again, but the vibes for drinks and maybe bowling would be better suited.

    I came here with 16 people and scheduled a birthday event in the middle of the day on Saturday. Everyone I was working with was super friendly and accommodating. The food was okay, the portions are kind of small so don't expect anything fancy or big. The bowling itself was kind of weird, the floors and ball was a little bit TOO waxy. We had some malfunctions in our lanes due to technical difficulties that did cut into our time, but the staff was very accommodating and tried to help fix as fast as they can. They also have an outdoor area with cornhole. Coming in the middle of the day, the outside was kind of crawling with children with the adults kind of letting them roam and do their thing which did get into the way of our cornhole games since we were scared to hurt them, so I suggest if you are looking for a non-kid area, to go at night.

    I had the pleasure of coming to this spot to celebrate a birthday event, and they did an awesome job. The staff was well organized and friendly and very happy to assist with our needs. The food was plentiful. The beverages were circulating. I would definitely be coming back to celebrate here again!

    We celebrated my cousins here and had an absolute blast, the vibe was awesome! Evelyn and as our server and she was awesome

    We celebrated my cousins birthday here and the vide was awesome! Evelyn was our server and she was fantastic, as was the food and drinks

    Something is wrong with their taps. They always taste off and are served in reused plastic cups. Drink canned beer

    We popped into the bowling alley after dinner at Lucky Tiger and were pleasantly surprised.

    I wanted to try this place because of the good reviews. A few times I had tried to get in early…read moreand even though the hours say they open at 9am, they really open at 11am. We got a table for two and we ordered a 3-BBQ meat and rice plate and a Beef Chow Fun. Both were ok. The size of the meat and rice plate was a bit smaller than Hong Kong eatery in my opinion. The beef chow fun was average, not too oily, not bad, but just average. The staff was busy but attentive. They do have a large selection of other authentic dishes like clay pots, crabs, fish, etc. Many people just come here for take out.

    I read positive reviews about the Saugus and Andover locations, so I thought I would visit the…read moreBoston Chinatown spot. Convenient Chinatown main district location near the excellent bakeries next door I visit for Chinese pastries . I saw a picture of the meat combo of duck, char sue, pork belly, white rice, hot Vegetables. I ordered the combo, an appetizer of pan fried dumplings. Nice Asian restaurant environment, but not a spot to enjoy a lengthy dinner with soothing music ambience or sipping hot tea... a busy no nonsense kitchen type eating place with yelling, bone chopping. The hanging appetizing cooked ducks, pork, chicken creates the vibe of a China town experience. Quick service, nice hot tea in kettle offering. The combo meat platter was cold slices of meat , rice a bit cold too. Vegetables fresh, hot but needed more . The duck meat was boney and not much duck meat or select pieces. Char sui was salty , few pieces. The pork belly was very good and needed more. I didn't compare my combo picture with the one I saw from 1 year ago and mine looks 1/2 the quantity of meat and vegetable.. the pic last year displays beefy pieces vs. my meat that looks like my animals are starved before preparing for my plating. I understand inflation reduced portions , but I would rather have last year's picture at a higher price. The pan fried dumplings not impressed as had much better elsewhere. These were too doughy and not a nice flavor or texture. I didn't see anything to be impressed with my dining outing and nothing to be offended by with either except boney malnourished duck pieces of cold meat . Other noodle dishes, rice dishes I saw other diners order were fresh hot and definitely appealing, abundant and worthy to try. Maybe the combo was a bad choice and a just a hot duck dish may have been better option here... clearly the hanging food was freshly prepared. Prices were fair , my waitress , server very pleasant , clean restaurant and no issues with that. I might look to try the hot duck at the other locations with a bit better expectations for ambiance and conversational luncheon environment. The baked egg custard pastry, creme coffee sponge cakes after for desert were excellent from bakery down the street.
