    Restaurant seems short-staffed, so everything takes much longer than it should. Our server did the best they could since they had a lot of tables to cover, but what should have been a 1-hour dining experience took 2 hours. The food is really good, just wish there were more servers so the wait isn’t so long. It’s unlikely we’ll dine here again because of the wait.

    We had a reservation, got there, there was no hostess. Tried to sit at a table and bartender told us to see hostess if we wanted to sit… but there was none! She finally appeared, didn’t check our reservation and left for several minutes to come back and tell us they weren’t using the tables anymore and just to sit at the bar. Poor bartender was doing drinks AND serving. Food looked better than expected at least

    We really enjoyed Dave & Busyers the first time we went but still they had SO many issues figuring out the promotions and happy hour and game cards…then again this time it was total chaos with noise and busyness, we had a reservation but weren’t allowed to sit in the good area with big screens unless we waited again for an hour with people who didn’t have a reso, then they still couldn’t figure out how to do the promotions, discounts and gift cards properly. They had to take our phones from us and bring them to their computers in order to scan the barcode for the game discount. It doesn’t feel great to have your phone taken from your care and seems weird they don’t have a better system. I know the employees are trying hard but it feels like they’re not given the proper tools or knowledge of the promos to truly serve customers well.

    Drinks took at least 30 to get to table 1 bt 1 and we not good. Food order taken and food came fast, small issues, but no server to get help to fix, that’s ok we managed on own. It wasn’t a terrible experience but could have been so much better!

    We sat there for a half hour while the staff argued with the manager over who had to serve our table (6 people). We talked to 3 different people and only after a server heard me say let's leave and go to shake shack did we finally get a server assigned. My wife's chicken tenders sucked had no flavor, my burger was ok but the service was so bad it ruined the meal on an 80 dollar tab.

    The service was horrible, we went for two Birthday dinners, my son never got his. They totally ignored us after food came out the fries in peoples orders were cold, but the food overall was good. Mgr tried to comp us a few items, but I was still so mad my son never got his dinner! We had four separate checks at table but I feel like mgr shoulda comped the Birthday dinner check!

    We made reservations to watch the kraken game.. they sat us by the tv but had no sound.. asked multiple times and they said they were working on it. Then about an hour into our meal we got sound but it was to another game not the kraken it was some basketball game.. asked again and they said they would get it fixed. Needless to say after one more time asking i stopped and we never got sound to the game.. so we spent $210 to watch a game with no sound.. I local sports team with no other local teams playing .. very poor on them.. I will not go back and will keep going to the Bellevue location where I have never had a problem like this

    Service could use some work there. Hostess was EXTREMELY rude and it was not even busy. Took a really long time to get extra drinks and dips. They used to have a chimichurri bowl on the menu that was delicious and healthy and just removed it, leaving not any healthy options, and that was the whole reason we had chosen to eat there. Overall though the food was tasty. Price was decent.

    We had reservations but it still retook a ling time before anyone even acknowledged us to be seated. It took even longer before someone came by to take our order. We ordered chicken nachos and they didn't even put any chicken on it.

    Food was tiny portions and beyond gross, salmon was the size of my 3 year olds palm. Fish and chips was one huge piece of all bread. Cesar was soaking old salad and nasty with tomato’s! Server was nice when she was available, she was given to many tables. Will not be back for the food for sure. But will be back for the over priced games :)

    We ordered for 5 people but only 4 orders showed up. We ate are meal and our other party still had not got her food. The food was horrible and they ended up taking 3 meals off of our bill. They did nothing to help the situation and had no idea what they were doing. It’s over priced and so disappointing. I will NEVER go back!

    Drinks took 30 minutes to reach our table and one of them was totally wrong/disgusting. Service took so long to help us we left and ate somewhere else. When we came back to play games it took so long for someone to help us at the bar we just didn't get any drinks

    Upon entering what we thought was the main entrance, we could not find an employee to help us with our reservation. We were eventually pointed in the right direction and led to our table. The server was slow and seemed upset the entire night. The food quality and taste was poor (next time, we'll just go for the games) and it took a long time to get our check. Overall, I would not come here for the food. We will be coming only for the game room.

    Food was not good. I ordered the steak medium it was rare, asparagus was burnt, 1/3 oz of fake mashed potatoes, my son’s birthday meal his chicken sandwich was soaked and fell apart immediately after he took the first bite had to pick it apart just to eat it. My daughters Philly had a rock hard bun and the color of everything was really odd. None of the employees are happy. At least to the customers. A lot act like they are doing you a favor. Zero hospitality the manager delivered our food without any greeting, no smile, or a hello. Nothing. For spending $350 there last night for son’s birthday thank goodness there were the video games because the rest of the place needs help. Bad. Next year we are not coming back.

    Our waitress was great. Lots of people, we actually had two tables she was helping for my daughters birthday. The food on the other hand, no so much. The cauliflower wings were so salty we didnt have enough water to wash it down. The Philly Cheese Steak meat was burnt and unedible. This was our second time and the first was amazing. Will give it one more time to see what happens. Side note: They need a new tarter recipe for sure.

    Our children’s food and appetizer arrived first; the server told us the system prioritizes children’s meals first. It was a good 10-15 minutes before my husband and I received our meals - we didn’t hear from our waitress about the system priority and status of our meals until my husband asked our server; we also didn’t receive a side order of fries - so thinking a busy kitchen was the culprit. We weren’t asked if he wanted water refills, but it appeared there were only two servers working - a lot of ground to cover. The food was delicious once it arrived. The only major complaint I have was that the women’s bathroom was absolutely filthy. I will also admit that the value for the games is very good compared yo other places like D&B’s.

    It’s was my sons 18th Birthday. After getting seated and finally finding out who our waiter was, he was very rude and let me know that he had other tables to be waited on and I would have to wait since I just sat down. I informed him that I had been waiting for about 10 mins. He then turned and walked off. As if that wasn’t enough me and wife ordered two of the strawberry/ watermelon margarita. My wife’s drink was not made at all like it was suppose to and ended up getting her ice cube watermelon in a sandwich bag on the side. Unsanitary. For my first time there the service and attitudes was horrible.

    Server put in kids order the same time as adult order. Kids food order came out 20 to 25 minutes before adults food came to table. Only after I spoke to management and the server. Their excuse was that that's how they do it. Why would you feed the kids 20 minutes before adults just to have the kids antsy and complaining they couldn't go play video games even though they ate. Server had really poor attitude. Had to ask several times to get more water on table to drink. Very disappointing!! Management even said they would adjust bill for the inconvenience which was not done and she could not be found when it was time for us to check out. But they were real quick to get us our 6 $20 gameplay cards when we spoke about it.
