We had my son's 4th birthday party here and he had a blast!! Service was good, the party food options was only flatbread pizza and fries for the kids, for the adults we ordered separate appetizer platters. The only thing was the tables were incredibly small so we had to pay extra for additional tables. The kids had a great time. Would do again.

My family of nine recently visited Dave and Busters, and I want to start by acknowledging the fantastic employees. We were promptly greeted upon arrival, and the hostess went out of her way to accommodate our large party's seating preference, which we greatly appreciated. Our waitress was also prompt, kind, and attentive to our initial needs. Where the experience dipped for us was in the service organization model. Orders are taken by the waitress, but drinks and food are delivered by runners who essentially "auction" items off ("Who had the lemonade? I have two!"). This system, while likely efficient for staff, felt impersonal and lost an element of classic table service. The biggest service lapse, however, was the soda refills—they were non-existent, and we constantly had to wave someone down to get attention once the runners left the table. We opted for the "Eat & Play" combo, paying $59.99 per person for an entrée and a 90-minute unlimited play card. The fine print here is where the fun ended. What they don't explicitly tell you upfront is that the 90 minutes start the moment you swipe your very first game. Furthermore, there's a mandatory 20-second wait required between each game swipe, severely limiting actual playtime within that window. They also place limits on how many tickets you can win and restrict which specific games count toward the unlimited play. Ultimately, the staff provided excellent hospitality, but the operational bottlenecks in service delivery and the confusing, restrictive terms of the unlimited game cards made the overall experience feel less valuable than advertised. It’s frustrating when the rules of engagement aren't clear until you've already committed your money.

If you’re looking for the perfect place to bring new clients, hold a casual business meeting, or simply make a great impression—Dave & Buster’s in Corpus Christi delivers every single time. I’ve now visited several times for business purposes, and each experience has genuinely exceeded expectations. From the moment you walk in, the staff makes you feel welcome and taken care of. The team here is consistently friendly, attentive, and professional. They do an excellent job of checking on you without being intrusive, which creates the ideal environment for discussing business while still enjoying the atmosphere. The food and drinks are always fresh, well-prepared, and delivered quickly. Whether it’s appetizers, entrées, or just coffee and drinks for a quick meeting, everything has been consistently great. It’s not easy to find a spot that balances quality food with a fun environment, but this location pulls it off perfectly. One of the reasons I like bringing clients here is the energy. It’s casual but still polished enough for productive conversations. And when the meeting wraps up, you can walk right over to the arcade side to unwind, laugh, and break the ice even more. It’s a fantastic way to build rapport with new clients or partners. There’s plenty of parking, the place is always clean, and the staff keeps everything running smoothly—even during busy times. I’ve been to a lot of places for business meetups around Corpus Christi, and Dave & Buster’s has quickly become my go-to spot. If you want a place where you can talk business, enjoy great food, and entertain your guests all in one stop, this is absolutely the place to go. Highly recommend!

Our server I do believe was named Miranda. She was really sweet. I love that she sat down and talk to us. We never felt rushed. She was super engaged, patient and felt part of the table. Great service and the food was surprisingly amazing. I left very pleased.

Besides the fact some random kid pushed in my son's cake while we were playing games, the overall time and service we had was wonderful. They allowed us to keep the cake in their refrigerator which was extremely nice. Our server was A1 as well, I forgot her name tho but she was extremely funny, she made my day better. We definitely reccomend this place for kids and family fun. Btw, the bar drinks ARE EFFING AMAZING OMGGGGGG I'd go back just to blackout at the bar. Jk but really, the drinks are made with excellence.
