    We had a fun night celebrating a 7-yr-old’s birthday. Played lots of games, kids were thrilled! We sat in the midway dining section where “all the action is” so we expected it to be LOUD: TVs, games, lots of families. We liked the value of unlimited games for 90 minutes (one power card per child, including their meal) and the adults mostly ordered a few meals and appetizers from the regular menu. I’d say B+ on the food, better than expected. Dave & Buster’s was a good choice :)

    Delicious food with a large menu. Excellent server. Only downside is how difficult is is to talk with a speaker right above our table. Too bad a quieter room is not offered.

    It's Dave And Busters...we went for the games, but celebrated a birthday in the dining room. The food was below average. The service was horrendous. The price for food was crazy high for the quality of food and service. Would I ever eat here again? No. Would I tell my worst enemy they should try the dining room? I totally would, because that would be mean to suggest that someone eats here! Sorry, Dave & Buster's. Stick to games as food and service isn't your thing.

    Their midway did not have a host or hostess so the reservation was pointless. It would be nice if they didn't accept reservations online if they don't honor them.

    Made reservations for 7:30pm, waited at the host area for 15 minutes and nobody showed up despite me asking about a host to two different staff. So left and ate somewhere else….

    Sadly, we probably have the worst service I’ve ever had between the server having too many tables and not enough help in the kitchen messing up every single order except for one out of the 11 it was a rough dining experience. The manager did come out and make it more manageable, but it still left a really bad taste in our mouth.
