Lots of real life video games that make you move. Looks really cool inside. Fun place for a birthday party. They also have a sectioned-off spot for food and drinks. Some alcohol drinks too. Probably not recommend before playing that foosball game. Wasn't too crowded when I was here on a winter holiday Sunday afternoon.

I visited Electric Playhouse in ABQ and here is my honest review. The place is a great place to take the kids and have a great time. I was impressed by the activities, and the variety of options to have a fun night! Everything was great, the front desk staff offered us a tour and we loved spending time there. We also had a bite to eat and the there is where they lost me. The food options are good, and I loved that they have a full bar for us adults but the food had its hick-ups. I ordered a salad with chicken, the burger sliders, and a green chile cheeseburger. When the food shows up the cheeseburger lacked seasoning, the sliders were almost burned and tasted like charcoal and the server forgot to put chicken on it. The Coke Zero did not have any gas, and the server said he could not do anything about it because the tanks were inside the manager's office and he did not have access to it. What? I did not expect to be charged for that drink that I did not drink or at least I would expect the staff to be able to correct the issue for the next guest ordering coke. I would encourage the admin staff to take a look at this review and hopefully correct these things because overall it is a great place to go!

My review is based solely from special event experiences, ie. Raves. And I have to tip my hat to these guys. I was convinced Revel was the best venue for live shows, but not anymore. First off, the staff has always been great and friendly, and security is secure so you feel safe, but not violated. Great crew, all around. Then, the open space and different sections make the whole venue feel like a giant playground. AND IS ANYONE ELSE BLOWN AWAY BY HOW CLOSE YOU CAN BE TO THE ARTIST!?!?!? It’s amazing. Anyway, thank you guys for making a great space to host events that doesn’t fall into the typical ABQ scene.

Must go here!!! This place is movement mixed with lots of fun. How am I this many years old and never been here...phoning a friend now. They use projectors to track movements and display games. This is like being player 1 & 2 in a video game. Didn't need to hit the gym after my visit here. Shootout to Jason the manager, huge help and all around nice guy. Giving this place 5 stars and will be on the lookout for new locations, as there is also 1 in Vegas that is now on my "list". Note of caution --> There are people who bring children and let them run around unsupervised, meaning the kids will monopolize a game and never leave the room. Notice I didn't say parents as that is an active role. Parents will tell the children this is a shared space and we need to give other people time to play given we have all paid to be here. Hint and nudge nudge, don't be the peraon who lets your kids run wild in public. Not judging but judging, iykyk.

Went on a Sunday for the drag brunch, have a great time! There’s a bar, I suggest you take cash. Cards are accepted but cash is king. We go the brunch which gave us two turns to hit up the buffet which consisted of bacon, sausage, meat and meatless omelettes. There were fruit cups, yogurt parfait, muffins, potato casserole. They also had beef tacos, which you could build on your own. Overall really nice addition to the show. The show consisted of 6 Queens, with amazing performances! Take your cash! Loved everything about this Sunday show. Would recommend, my table and I had a blast!
