Overall we had a good experience. The kids had a blast playing games. The only issue I had was with the food service. When we walked in we were told the only sever they had on schedule called out sick. While I don’t blame that on the server, I do blame it on the management that would only schedule one server. That’s kind of crazy. After about 15 minutes, someone came to the table to take our drink and food order. She was very nice and apologetic for the slower than usual service. Food was ok. The arcade was good as usual, kids loved it.
