Went there on a Thursday night for my daughter’s bday. Lots of parking the place was super empty. The alcoholic beverages made with liquor weren’t good, and unless you wanted a canned seltzer or some beer I wouldn’t waste your money. Carina was very nice and surprisingly the food was super good. We had the Parmesan wings and cheese pizza. Those were the best wings I have had in a while. The kids loved the games and were actually winning toys out of the claw machines. I don’t think the prices here are any worse than competing places. We will be back!

Stopped in for games and a snack on a Sunday afternoon. My kids had a blast playing all the arcade games and the beer draft selection from Third Eye Brewing was great. We ordered some pretzel bites that came out quickly and tasted fresh, and priced well at $7.99. Our waitress was also really friendly and kind to our kids. We will definitely be back!

We recently hosted a baby shower at this incredible new restaurant and arcade, and I can’t say enough great things about our experience! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the vibe, the service, and the overall energy of the place. We chose to have the event in the patio area, and it was honestly perfect — spacious, clean, beautifully set up, and just the right balance of fun and relaxed. The staff went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. They were attentive without being overbearing, incredibly friendly, and genuinely seemed happy to be part of our special day. It’s rare to find a team so dialed-in, especially at a new spot — but they nailed it. The food? Absolutely amazing! Every dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Our guests are still talking about how good everything was — from the appetizers to the mains. There were great options for everyone (including those with dietary restrictions), and everything came out on time and piping hot. What really made the day stand out was the arcade. It added such a fun twist to the shower — guests of all ages had a blast! Kids and adults alike were drawn to it, and it gave everyone a fun way to interact, laugh, and create memories. It’s rare to find a venue that’s both elegant enough for a baby shower and entertaining enough to keep everyone smiling the whole time — but this place nailed it. We’re so happy we chose this location. It was a stress-free, joy-filled day in a beautiful space, with lots of on site parking and we truly felt taken care of every step of the way. Whether you’re planning an event or just looking for a fun place to eat and hang out — GO HERE. You won’t regret it! Huge thanks to Mike, Neshea & the rest of the team for making our baby shower so special. We’ll absolutely be back (many times) — and recommending this gem to everyone we know! Pictures don’t do it justice we were too busy enjoying ourselves.
