What parents say
"I haven't been in a few years. Brought two of my friends who both had a combo with gameplay. One was a smash burger, beer, and $20 gameplay. The other bacon smash burger, coke, and $20 gameplay. I just got the barbacoa quesadillas. The burgers are really good, but the lettuce was starting to brown. The quesadillas are nothing like the picture on the menu. They are soggy and were not served with sour cream. They did taste okay but not on par as I expected. The service is good. I have no complaints, but she got sidetracked and forgot the sweetener for my unsweetened iced tea. Not a bigger. I wil"

"My husband and I enjoyed a great date here! The mozzarella sticks make for a great appetizer. I loved my grilled chicken sandwich with a side of truffle fries and he loved his all-American cheeseburger with added bacon. The s'more cheesecake is definitely enough for 2 to share."

"Waited 45 minutes over all for service and 30 on food for our food that was supposed to feed 2-4 people to look like this. Drink was so watered down. Server was trying her best. Half of the games were down. Bad experience overall"
