"We got seated really quickly, and…"
We got seated really quickly, and the games loaded up fast too. that’s all I was really looking for, so I feel like it was totally worth going.

"Games barely worked, and something felt off"
I was disappointed. About half the games didn’t work or were glitchy, which made the whole experience frustrating. I also couldn’t shake the feeling that they were trying to sneak in extra charges somewhere, so I left feeling suspicious about the whole thing

"I like the app overall, but something about…"
I like the app overall, but something about the game selection just feels a bit limited. After a while, it starts to feel like I’m seeing the same kinds of games over and over, and I really wish there was more variety. It’s not bad at all, I just feel strongly that adding more options would make the whole experience way better

"The rewards are honestly why I keep coming back"
I was sure the rewards program would be worth it, and after going a few times, that definitely feels true. I just load my card, play a few games, and somehow end up with solid perks without really trying. Every time I go with friends, it kind of proves my point that it’s a better deal than people might expect.

"Fun night with barely any waiting"
I went to Dave and Buster's on a busy night and was surprised by how many games were actually open. We barely had to wait for anything, and there was a nice mix of classic games and newer ones. Ended up having a really fun time

"Fun night, but it can get pricey"
Went here with some friends and had a decent time. The drinks were fine and the games were fun, but it definitely gets loud really fast. Also, the prices add up quicker than you’d expect for adults, so just keep that in mind.

"I went in hoping to watch the game..."
I went in hoping to watch the game, but it wasn’t great compared to other places I’ve been. The screens felt far away, and the audio didn’t match the game at all, which kind of killed the vibe...

"The bathrooms were clean too, which I…"
The bathrooms were clean too, which I always really appreciate. Did anyone else notice the same thing when they visited?

"No surprise fees"
I was—i was really glad the prices were clear before I bought credits. There weren’t any weird surprise fees at checkout, which made it way easier to plan the night with my kids

"They had some cool prizes, which…"
They had some cool prizes, which made it feel like there should’ve been way more stuff on the shelves, but the selection seemed kind of limited. I still liked looking around, though I guess if the prizes are good maybe the shelves don’t need to be totally full? Not sure, just felt a little empty to me.

"Chill Weeknight Visit"
Went on a weeknight and it was way more relaxed than I expected. There were people there, but it never felt packed, and we didn’t have to wait long for any games. Food came out fast too, which was ridiculous in the best way. Overall, just a really good time

"Fun Saturday with the kids"
Took the kids here on Saturday, they had a blast. The games were easy enough for everyone to jump into, the food was decent, and the staff was really patient even with all the noise and running around

"Went to Dave & Buster's last weekend…"
Went to Dave & Buster's last weekend and the drinks were better than i expected. My margarita was mixed really well, not weak at all, and it came out fast. The bartender was super chill too. I'd definitely go back just for drinks again.

"Fun games, but I’d skip the food"
i had a fun time at Dave & Buster’s last weekend playing the games, but the food was disappointing. My burger came out a little cold, the fries tasted like they’d been sitting around for a while, and the wings were dry. For what it costs, I expected better. The staff was nice enough, but next time I’d probably grab food somewhere else before going

"Absolutely the perfect hangout spot"
Went here with friends and I’m 100% convinced this is exactly the kind of place you go when you want a fun night without overthinking it. The atmosphere was so good, loud, but in the best possible way, with a ton going on and a really easy vibe. We could’ve stayed there forever, honestly

"Wish I’d Found It Sooner"
I found a spot really fast, which made the whole night so much easier. I just regret not using it earlier because it would’ve saved me a lot of stress.

"Pretty solid variety for a group"
Went to Dave & Buster’s with a few friends, and I was kind of surprised by how many options were on the menu. They had burgers, wings, nachos, salads, and a decent drink selection too, so it seemed like everyone was able to find something easily. I’m giving it 4 stars because a few things felt maybe a little overpriced for what you get, but overall the variety is definitely a plus. Probably a good spot if your group can’t agree on one type of food.

"Friendly staff, but getting help took forever"
I went to Dave and Busters last weekend and the staff was nice overall, everyone was friendly and smiling. But when our game card had an issue, it took way too long to actually get help. We got transferred around instead of someone just handling it, which was frustrating. It wasn’t a terrible experience, but they definitely need to be a little more on top of things.

"I went to Dave & Buster’s last…"
I went to Dave & Buster’s last weekend with some friends, and overall we did have a good time. The games were fun, and the staff seemed nice enough, so I don’t really have any complaints there. But the noise level kind of wore me out. Between the music, arcade sounds, and people shouting, it felt like everything was competing at once. I found myself feeling a little drained because we could barely have a normal conversation without practically yelling. I’d probably go back, but only when it’s less busy. It’s a fun place if you’re in the mood for energy and chaos, just not somewhere I’d pick if I actually wanted to relax and catch up with friends.

"Pretty Smooth Order, Just One Small Mix-Up"
I ordered from Dave & Buster's at first I was really happy with how easy everything was. The food, drinks, and game card info all looked clear and matched my receipt, which was a relief because I hate when online orders get confusing. Then I got a little annoyed because one of the side items wasn’t what I had picked. It wasn’t a huge deal, but still kind of disappointing in the moment. Luckily, the staff fixed it quickly when I asked, so that made me feel better. Overall, it was a good experience, just not completely perfect
