"Working from out of town for the next five weeks and staying at the hotel next door. I'm glad this place is within walking distance. The pictures are each from separate visits. My favorite dish out of all these is the Stacked Steak Bowl. It's so good and not heavy. Everything I ordered was great. My only complaint is the desserts. Small selection and everything is way way too sweet. The S'mores cheesecake is a good example of this."

"Today my visit to Dave and Buster's was short but very fun! I was greeted by multiple employees as I entered the building. It was Tuesday afternoon so it was pretty quiet but it was good to see the employees were very friendly. I looked around at their game selection and decided to play a few games. Had a good conversation with the bartender Adrian. Adrian was very friendly and helpful, We talked about the different games that were offered and also had a discussion about the prizes. I did not have any food while I was here but it looks like this location offers the same Dave & Buster's m"
