Mavrix is a Bowlero establishment in Scottsdale. I stopped by on a Wednesday night for the arcade…read more Parking is easy in the huge lot they share with a bunch of other businesses. One of the main attractions at Mavrix is bowling. Another is laser tag. I passed on both and checked out the arcade instead. It was time well spent because it's a pretty awesome arcade. I've been to the Bowlero in North Scottsdale and it's smaller than this one. Here, you have a bunch of fighting and driving games, interspersed with carnival-style games. I played 10 or so games total in about an hour. Wednesday is a great day to go because the games are 50% off. I didn't come away empty-handed either. With the tickets I won, I redeemed them in their prize room. It's a pretty large room too, with more prizes available than the North Scottsdale location. While I didn't have many tickets, I had enough for two pieces of candy and a T-Rex toy. Outside of what I mentioned, Mavrix has plenty of areas to sit, including a full bar. I haven't had food or drinks here, but I did take a look at the menu and it's a pretty extensive one. Definitely nicer overall than your typical bowling alley.

It's definitely one of those all-in-one spots where you can bowl, play arcade games, do laser tag,…read moreand grab food and drinks all in one place. The vibe is super lively and modern, with a lot going on, so it's perfect for groups, date nights, or even just something different to do. The arcade had a good variety of games and the bowling area was clean and well set up. It's the kind of place where you can easily spend a few hours without getting bored. Food and drinks were decent--nothing crazy, but good enough for a night out. The menu has a mix of bar food, appetizers, and drinks, which makes it easy to snack while you play. But honestly, the service alone made me not want to come back. The bartender/waitress took our drink order and clearly made my boyfriend's drink stronger like noticeably stronger. I asked for the same thing at the same moment saying "she was going to hook him up " she didn't do it me, but still charged me the exact same price. That made zero sense and came off unprofessional, like she was more focused on him than actually doing her job fairly. It didn't stop there. My food came out soggy and borderline unappetizing, while his was completely fine. So not only are the drinks inconsistent, but apparently the kitchen is too. For how expensive everything is, you'd expect better service and quality across the board. The place looks nice and has a fun concept, but it's not worth it if the experience depends on who you are or how the staff feels that day. Definitely wouldn't recommend unless you're okay with inconsistent service and being overcharged for less.

Amazing and upstanding service hosted by ALEX during our briefing prior to our intermediate race…read more First time ever coming to a place like this. We decided to come on a Wednesday afternoon for a Birthday with my girlfriend. Due to this being our first time behind the wheel of a high powered go-kart, we did have a lot of questions and concerns. The young man whose name was ALEX was just phenomenal. With a lot of nerves and questions Alex without hesitation and with great professionalism addressed each and every concern while putting nerves to rest. My girlfriend after speaking with him and after the pre-race briefing was ready and fit for action. It's hard to find such great character and hard working individuals these days. I highly suggest you go see Alex and I do hope he gets the much deserved credit he deserves for being a genuine, upstanding, and hard-working individual one hopes they could find at any place of business.

For our attractions we did the 7D experience (Los Banditos) and the Hyperdeck VR (Zombies) which were each favorites for people in our group. Getting to do 2 go cart races was perfect (1 blue track and 1 green track) and we shared plenty of laughs about the races and spin outs while enjoying the yummy food. The arcade offered so many options too, from VR & team Pac-Man to hoops and racing games. Was such a great value to get ~4 hours of fun, would highly recommend.

Had a great time at Andretti Indoor Karting & Games! This…read moreplace is basically an adult playground with go-karts, arcade games, good food, and plenty to keep you entertained for hours. The go-karts were definitely the highlight, and the food was surprisingly good for an entertainment venue. The entire facility had a fun, energetic atmosphere, and it's a great spot for a date night, group outing, or just a competitive day with friends. My only real complaint was the temperature in the go-kart area. It was noticeably hotter there compared to the rest of the venue, which made the experience a little uncomfortable, especially while wearing the required gear and racing. Hopefully, that's something they can improve. Overall, though, we had a great time and would definitely come back. Just be prepared to work up a sweat on and off the track!

Checked out Andretti as part of a full day birthday celebration for an adult…read more We chose to do one go kart race and our heat was scheduled about 15 minutes after we purchased the ticket. We were told to check back in five minutes before the heat started. On our way to check in, we saw some other people checking in who we had previously observed partaking in some 'recreational activities' in the parking lot - no judgment on that, but I do have a legitimate concern for my safety driving with others under an influence. I approached the staff member in the check in room and explained the situation and asked if we could postpone to the next heat. I was told I'd have to go back to the front desk and ask if they can make the change and that the next heat wouldn't be for another half hour. We didn't have the flexibility in our schedule to stay that long so we decided to participate in the current heat. The staff member told me I could pull over to the side to get assisted off the track if I needed to at any time. I didn't love that I would have to exit the race because of someone else's behavior. Interestingly, during the race, one person crashed into the wall in front of me and the other person crashed into my partner. Aside from all that drama, the track was pretty fun with lots of hard turns. The vehicles had great traction. The turbo button on the vehicle I was using was not marked or colored, so I was not able to use it during the race which was disappointing. I think that all of the entertainment and activity options were exciting and plentiful. If I had endless time and funds, I could definitely keep myself busy here for several hours, maybe even an entire day. I didn't love that a single go kart race was $30 per person and I didn't love that safety wasn't taken more seriously.

I wanted to get into karting so I visited Innovative Karting. I talked to Curtis about my plans…read more He explained the best and most economical way to proceed with this sport. What he told me was something I didn't want to hear, but something I NEEDED to hear. I was going about it all wrong. He is a real straight shooter, not trying to sell you things you don't need. He was super friendly and easy to talk to, even about questions he probably answered millions of times. His shop and floor space were neat and clean. I will continue to use Innovative, as apposed to buying on-line. We need to support owners like Curtis. You rock.

(i will be hyper-fixating on my chipped tooth though, an apology would be nice.)

Stopped on a whim and had the best time!…read more We purchased three races each and got on the track pretty quickly. They give new racers the run down on how everything works, the flag system, etc. Explained the red button on the steering wheel that should only be used if necessary to back up. When my husband asked if the green button on the steering wheel was to boost your speed, the guy said if you think it does, then yes. LOL The carts go fast and it's a lot of fun. I like that after your race, you can get your results up at the counter inside to see where you ranked, your fastest lap, etc. I had one incident on my last race where I spun out and then someone hit me at full force. The flag guy ran over to make sure I was OK. My pride made me tell him yes, I was fine but it actually hurt. But I'm a big girl and can handle getting roughed up a little. LOL Thankfully it happened on my last race because my car did not handle too well after that - it shook terribly. I felt that the staff were patient, helpful and want everyone to have a good time. Our only issue was that we waited forever for our last race. They never called our names and group after group after group went on the course. Turns out they had somehow forgot about us. Arcade games, food, photo opps are inside and like I said, we had the best time!

We celebrated my niece's 5th birthday at Dave & Buster's last night, and our experience was so…read morewonderful that I felt each person deserved their own shout-out! Lucas, our host, was incredibly thoughtful and accommodating. Dave & Buster's can understandably be loud and busy, but my niece had just broken her arm and had already had a rough night, so he kindly found us a quieter, calmer area where she could be more comfortable. He even came back later to check on us and make sure everything was going well. That extra thoughtfulness meant so much to our family. Jerica, our server, was fantastic! Our group of nine arrived at different times, but she stayed completely on top of checking in as each person joined us. She kept everyone's drinks and food orders going without missing a beat and was friendly, patient, and attentive throughout the entire celebration. Brian, the manager, was also incredibly friendly. He came over to make sure we were having a good night, took the time to chat with us, and made us feel genuinely welcome. I also loved how positively he spoke about his staff and made a point of recognizing how great they are, it says a lot about him as a manager. Lucas, Jerica, and Brian all went above and beyond to take care of us and helped make my niece's birthday feel truly special. We couldn't have asked for a better experience! Not to mention the food was great and we had a great time playing games! Thanks so much!

The weather was perfect but it would be a lot to eat in the car during the hot summer. I feel like there was a lot of variety of things to do for the age difference of my kids. My main issue was with the flooring of the entire park. I'd like to see them do something to make the sidewalk more comfortable for the 99% of people who are walking around barefoot. All of our feet hurt from walking around on the really hard concrete. I guess I'd recommend you wear water shoes if you have them. We used a Get Out Pass and the whole process was seamless. It's worth getting because just a trip to Sunsplash is pretty much the same price as a Get Out Pass and you get so much out of it. I don't know if I'd go again because the cost is pretty high.
