Dave & Buster’s

BEWARE IDENTITY THEFT My identity was stolen on May 15^th 2016 IMMEDIATELY after adding money to the power card using the Charging Station App! There is no doubt that the app is responsible, they could prove me wrong if they called me back and of course I will take this down if they did. (This is the location we go to though, just in case) They had this same problem with hackers stealing identities for profit in 2008 and in 2014 with waiters stealing credit card information in Long Island. I have called them twice with no answer and don’t want this to happen to anyone else. If they make it right, I will let you know. Until then, I feel a responsibility to warn others.

Terrible service at the bar. Over priced food. Ehhh… Think I’ll just stick to grab n go drinks while I play games.

Great fun for me and my son. Good game variety. Food is mediocre at best and the service is poor. Waitress was clueless as to drink prices. And she also didn’t think the fish and chips came with tartar sauce… really? It’s supposedly a best seller.

Meh food — should have eaten before going. Deafening noise level. Overpriced in my opinion. Will have to find another place to entertain the children.

I love this place! It’s so much fun! Although we don’t really come here for the food, it doesn’t taste all that great and it’s expensive. We just come for the games and drinks! They have a great bar and they can literally make any drinks. Games are a blast! And they also have a very good collection of prizes in their shop too! They have lots of stuffed animals and all things for everyone. Great for a date! Will come again!

Not much for corporate places but come to the bar and the female bartender Dana is working she always has her a game. I’m I bar manager/​bartender and she’s one off the best.

I’m being a little harsh here, but honestly this is up for grabs as far as stars goes. Here’s the break down…
Service– 4÷5− I say this because it was a busy Saturday night and our waiter was slammed in the bar area, but still made sure we were somewhat taken care of. I came with one other, so our ticket wasn’t going to be too high, so I can understand paying attention to bigger tables.
Games 4÷5− the games were decent, most worked as supposed to. The only bummer was for the DDR game, two guys played it for a hour straight. They were sweating profusely all over the game, and set up a water station with them. They didn’t rotate out for others to play, little annoying.
Food 2÷5− Ok, as a chef I get it, it’s a busy Saturday night, tables are packed. That’s no excuse though for cold pizza bites, Luke warm chicken tenders. I understand most of the food is microwaved or thrown under a salamander to brown. But for it to come out cold like that is inexcusable. I was really upset to spend 30 bucks for cold food.
Overall– avoid high periods of activity. You’ll get cold food, sweaty people taking over games.

Awesome service!!!
Usually big corporate places lack in service but this location is great from the moment you walk in. Everyone makes you feel welcome from the moment you walK in.
It can get busy but the staff is very courtious.
Tried fried calamari appetizer & it goes really well with two sauces served (honey mustard & tomato sauce… I think).
We came in for a birthday party & everyone was overly satisfied with the service & food. We had Bacon wrapped sirloin medallion, philly cheese steak, bistro steak & shrimp, Bass fish & so much more.
Thanks to the staff & management at Dave & Busters, my staff & family had a marvelous time.
THANK YOU!!!

So I am currently at D&B’s and since I’ve been sitting here for about 20 minutes and have not yet even received a drink I decided to write a review. Service is TERRIBLE. Oh and we had to wipe out own table down prior to sitting… The staff seems like they don’t even want to be here. I get it, you are at work on a Saturday but why not make the best of it and give the customer a good experience. We are celebrating my MIL’s birthday and it’s kind of put a damper on the night.
My husband had to ask for a server and also grab our own menus. Hopefully the food is worth the wait but I won’t hold my breathe. Might be another hour before we receive. :/​
Well got our food. Took forever. Decent but lukewarm.
We talked with the manager and he and the server apologized.

We went here today, to celebrate my granddaughter’s 16^th birthday! Even though her parents were there an hour before the party was to begin, the table wasn’t ready until Almost an hour past the time the party was to start!
After we were seated, and the obviously inexperienced waitress took our orders, it took forever for the food to come out! Several of the orders were wrong, and one order didn’t come out until everyone else was finished with their meals. The price of the food was HIGH! On a positive note, everyone said their food was very good, once it finally came out!
The atmosphere would probably be fun for tweens and teens, but for the rest of us, it was SO LOUD, I was actually afraid it would damage our hearing. To be fair, my grandchildren had a great time, and enjoyed all the games!
I hope this review is helpful!

This is the first Dave & Buster’s I’ve been too and my friends and I had a lot of fun here. We arrived around 8pm and stayed for about 2 hours. The staff was pretty busy since a UFC fight was going on and the place was packed. We signed up for their card and put about $ 12 bucks on the cards which lasted a lot longer than I thought it would. We ordered some drinks from the bar in the back and they were pretty good. I had a berry red bull drink that was just the right amount of alcohol to make the night that much more enjoyable. I enjoyed a variety of games and liked that they had newer stuff out there (new Jurassic Park game was awesome). Overall, it was fun and relaxing. I will definitely check out some of the Dave & Busters in my own area back here in CA soon!

What a HORRIBLE place I ordered an appetizer it was 16 dollars and came with 4 slider burgers and 4 wings! It was essentially 2 dollars per item! The menu did not specify how many it came with. Needless to say I’ll never order food there again.

This is pretty classic spend $ 40 for a stuffed toy, or in our case, some play sand. Dave and Buster’s is a place that our family is familiar with and is a place that both the kids and adults enjoy. Located in the Tempe Marketplace, you won’t get away without dropping some cash, but the entertainment value is where your money goes.
Arriving for a late dinner on a Sunday night, we could here the salsa music from the patio upstairs which is unique to this location and haven’t seen in any other D&B. It was Havana Night from 6:30−12 where ladies get in for free before 7:30 and there are free salsa lessons with $ 3 dos equis and $ 4 mojitos. We were seated immediately in a large booth in the dining area with clear views of UFC Fight Night on the many screens throughout the restaurant. We received great service and I would say the food was pretty mediocre. The food menu is large with American fare along with an equally large drink menu which includes a full margarita, tiki drink, tea, and snow cone beverage section. My wife likes sweet drinks and her strawberry watermelon margarita was perfect for her.
I ordered the steak salad and was pleased with the combination of bleu cheese, candied pecans, and herb vinaigrette to go along with the steak. The meal was part of an eat and play combo which got me the salad plus a card with $ 20 in play for $ 30 which was a good deal in my book. Keep your card to reload when you’re done because you’ll have to pay an activation fee for a new one and the card will also keep track of your ticket count. Also ordered were the: roasted turkey avocado BLT ($ 10.49), chicken parmesan alfredo ($ 12.99), and boss chicken club ($ 10.49). Everyone else finished their food and there were no complaints.
After we bought a $ 20 card for the kids, we spent about 90 minutes playing games. The nice thing is that if you get a little thirsty there are bars bordering both sides of the gaming area. There are plenty of driving and shooting games where you can compete against your family or others. The younger ones won’t be left out either as there is a section of games for them.
If you bring a group, you’re not leaving here without spending a chunk of change, but you’ll have fun. Every night there are food and drink specials to go along with weekday early and late happy hours. Half priced games on Wednesday nights will take your dollar a little further so you won’t have to spend as much for that little stuffed toy.

Tonight 6 of my friends and I came here. We do often. We sat on the roof top for the first time. We had Megan as a server. We were very disappointed orders were not put in we spent about an extra hour and a half waiting for our friends to get and eat there food although we were all done.
An awesome server «Will» and manager «Omar» took care of us for the remainder and made our visit as good as it could be at that point! We are very appreciative to them.

This place is great! Came here for salsa dancing on Sunday night. It was so much fun and it was a very lively place! I would highly recommend this place if you wanna get your salsa on or just to hang out and play some games!

Saturday afternoon with my 10 year old, today he chose Dave and Busters.
$ 23 sure doesn’t go very far in an arcade anymore.
Always a fun time with your kids here, had some snack during our visit.
Quesadilla’s and sliders, nothing to write home about, quick easy bar food.

We went last night. We were seated, male waiter took our drink order. Got my drink wrong and never came back to give my mother in law her coffee.
A female waitress saw us waiting for a long time and asked if we ordered food.
We told her no and that our mom didn’t get her coffee.
Female waitress looked disappointed in the first waiter and she went and got the coffee.
The male waiter ended up serving a table next to us (not sure what we did for the male waiter to not serve us).
I would give 5 stars for the female waitress.
2 stars is for the rude male waiter.

A fun place to have food, drinks and play games! Also there are TV’s everywhere so if you are looking for a game to watch, chances are they have it playing. Be sure to visit on Wednesday’s at it is half price games!

Visited this spot the other day with my family. We were trying to find something fun for the kids that wasnt in the AZ heat. We had some lunch and then played some games. It is a great spot for some fun and games for everyone in the family. The kid in me loves going for some fun. The games we play on our cells are now larger, more interactive and a lot more fun. Games we would play with regular household items are now score keeping and setup just for us. Kids will have a blast, my son always does. There is tons to do and play to keep kids occupied and happy for a few hours.
The place has food, drinks and games galore so its great for a night out with some friends or a nice, cool spot to take the kids. The one at desert ridge has a bowling alley and area for parties. Great place for company get togethers and social mixers.
Only downfall was the super slow service at the restaurant. We got there and there was only two tables sat but we waited almost 30 min for a salad and pretzel dogs. We had to ask about it twice before our food finally came. If it was busy thats one thing but with only 2 tables before us it shouldn’t take 30 min to get out an app salad and 3 mini pretzel dogs.

This was my first visit to any Dave & Busters since we don’t have them in the Reno area. I went with my son, his friend and a friend of mine during a trip out of town to the Tempe area.
The place is huge and pretty exciting when you first enter with a bar in front, games in the rear and dining area on both sides of the bar. It appears that the right side of the dining area (which is closed off to games) is more for folks who want to just eat and sit away from the gaming action. The rest of the tables are either bar-​side or right next to all of the games.
The hostess took a good amount of time being nice and explaining the «pay and play» specials and other options we had. I ended up buying a $ 12.00 playing card (which I think loaded up 48 «chips») and ordering off the menu.
They have a pretty varied menu although it really is just more creative «sports bar» food with a tad higher price. I ended up splitting a burger with my friend — don’t remember the name but it was a beef patty with buffalo chicken strips on it and onion straws on top. (Yeah — you read that right). My son got a mushroom burger and asked for no onions. He and I also split the spinach dip.
Feelings on food changed during the course of our visit. My friends soup came out cold twice and once she finally got a hot one she didn’t care for it — too salty. My son loved his burger (even though he had to pick the onions off since they didn’t see the «no onion» request). The spinach dip was very good. The burger my friend and I split was tasty although dry so we got a side of Frank’s sauce. My friend later got sick but I was fine so maybe it was her soup? Our waiter was very busy and seemed very new — he was also very nice so I personally didn’t much mind the small mistakes because he felt so bad about it.
They have a HUGE variety of games. I just glanced around but saw everything under the sun. They evven have a horror game that monitors your heart rate!!! (Say WHAT!?)
The ticket redemption center is not like most arcades with a bar of toys an angry teenager behind it. This was huge and more like a store of goodies than anything else. You can walk around and touch/​feel and pay with the prizes before you commit to spending your tickets.
When all was said and done I had spent $ 42.00. That total included 2 drinks, 2 entrees (1 split), 1 appetizer and 54 game chips. I didn’t think that was bad at all and I would go again for sure!
Final thoughts:
1 — I don’t love the limited options to re-​load the card. My son only needed 6 more chips to play the game he wanted to at the end of the day and since the re-​load machine doesnt offer 6 chips I had to use my debit card twice to get 3 more chips twice. That was annoying.
2 — The have a huge beer… it’s cool… it’s like a big mini keg and holds about 8 beers. I think it costs around $ 30.00. I want it.
3 — I seriously wanna get a group of adults to this place and drink and play games.
That is all.
