"Decent bowling place. It would not disappoint. Not the best. Ambience: 3.5/5 (Very old) Equipment : 3.5/5 (Very old) Location: 4/5 (Close to Seattle downtown) Food was surprisingly good. The hummus dips were great. Must try. Chicken pizza was very tasty. Veg rolls were nice. Chicken on the stick was not well cooked."
