It was our first visit. The show they gave to my husband, "mama mia", looked like Charlie Chaplin show shoes, smashed. Me took it and left it on the floor without even try. It was a birthday party. But thanks, they offered us a show cover for kids after I explained that my son will never wear not familiar shoes. Another thing, I ordered a cocktail from the bar. I paid $20!!!!! including tips 18% just for soda and a lot of ice. This must be changed. You guys reduce price for alcoholic cocktail that doesn't include alcohol, or do it normally. Pizza was good.

This was my 1st time coming since it was no longer Jewel. The parking was a little confusing and I wasn't sure if I needed to pay or not. Drinks were good. The DJ was a nice touch, and the wait wasn't too long. Our food had not one, but THREE hairs in it, which made us lose out appetite a bit. I'd be down to give them another chance though...

We had an amazing experience thanks to our server, Joel! Even on a very busy Sunday night, he was incredibly attentive, personable, and made us feel truly taken care of. He checked on us often without ever making us wait, and his great attitude made our night that much better. Joel is exactly the type of server who makes you want to come back. Highly recommend asking for him—you’ll be in great hands!

Waiter was attentive when food was ordered throughout our game play, and had only 1 complication on our lane but was quickly given another lane with added time to make up for what had been lost, great customer service! Will definitely be back again!

Meh. Went on a Tuesday evening. It was very expensive for what it was, and what it was wasn’t great. It’s definitely cheaper to pay by the game than by the hour. Our lane had wet paper towels all over the approach, and under the ball return. Floor was sticky. Food took nearly an hour, and was not great. Cheese fries are disgusting. Cheese is so cheap it doesn’t even melt. Chicken tenders are nothing but cheap, overcooked bread. Regular fries were really good with one meal, and overdone with the next. Fry seasoning was great. $50 for bar food for 3 people is outrageous. Credit card machines preposterously suggest a 30% tip on top, down to 20% in the three options. 30% tips are for spectacular service at a fine dining restaurant, absolutely not for someone to deliver overdone fries on paper. Staff was friendly enough, but not enough to make me spend another hundred bucks for 3 people to eat trash food and bowl for an hour.
