"Super fun! Lots of vibrant color and the staff is friendly! Had a margherita pizza and it was very good. You really can just play anything after the entry fee it rocks. Very good if you wanna play one specific arcade Also has the heritage for the future cabinet which i’ve never seen in person! Lots of rare/obscure games"

"Came with my husband for a work thing he had and I wasn't expecting anything from it as I've always only seen what round one has. I had so much fun here, they have a lot of games, pinball machines, pool tables, etc. you can get alcohol here as well and the restrooms are great. I would come here next time."
