Dave and Busters is the place to go if you want to play some games or even just hang out with some friends! There are a ton of games to play from and it’s super easy to keep track of your tickets earned and credit with their new system. Their prizes are a bit lacking but you really just come for the fun. I’ve had their food a few times but I wouldn’t really recommend it. The service, especially in the game area, is very slow and the food quality is mediocre. If anything, I suggest eating somewhere else, possibly in the colossus plaza area a few minutes away, and then coming here for the rest of the night!

Sometimes I feel like D&B is an excuse for adults to play games that they are way too old for, and it’s still acceptable since everyone else around you is doing it. I do have to admit that it is a lot of fun. A huge area with tons to do. From your classic arcade games like skeeball, to games you never even considered like Kung Fu Panda. Just choose what you play carefully, as it now seems you can play giant versions of games you can download on your phone. Unfortunately, you cannot be watching your wallet and playing, since you wouldn’t get to do much. Getting credits to play is quite expensive, so if you’re going, just dive all in and have fun. They have recently changed their ticket system, where any tickets you win are automatically put on your card. While it may be convenient, I no longer have that satisfaction of holding a huge bucket of tickets that I’ve won. Prizes are still unreasonably out of reach, but I believe you can now exchange tickets for food, which is an amazing new realization for me! Will definitely be doing that next time, since I have so many tickets saved up anyways. The food here is reminiscent of your typical pub food, but always great with a bunch of a friends and while you’re having fun. Not the cheapest entertainment alternative, but a great choice to relive your childhood and spend some time with friends. Check it out!

The main purpose to visit this place was to watch the hockey, basketball and baseball game. They were able to accommodate us for that however the service was so horrible. It took forever to get our appetizers. The bartenders had a bad attitude with the exception of one server that seemed to be working very hard at keeping the customers happy. The quality of the food is average with very limited healthy choices.

Just like any other Dave and busters I’ve been to, there is a wide selection of games to choose from and drinks as well. The service was quick for us which is nice. The area is very friendly and I have seen plenty of kids here which is a good thing since some Dave and busters I’ve been to aren’t so kid friendly with the amount of drunk people roaming around.

It’s a entertainment, Sport bar, Arcade centre. It’s also freaking huge. I’m from Montréal and there’s some arcade centre, but nothing similar to Dave & Buster’s. It’s a Arcade where you can get those tickets which you can use for Arcade games or prizes. There’s lot and I mean A LOT of different arcades for everytype of addicts. I got 2837 ticket with 30 $ worth of Ticket which is a lot. I already got a «system» for the next time I go by Toronto :)

This place is only getting two stars because our waiter was really friendly and I could tell he was genuinely trying his best to be attentive to everyone. Maybe it was a bad experience because it was Saturday night and it happened to be fight night so it was crazy busy. Our night started fine, since we got there before the main event. Our waiter gave us time to look at the menu and came around when we were ready. We told him we were waiting for a couple of friends so he knew that we wouldn’t need him until our party arrived. I respected that he didn’t bother us since on a busy night like this, most waiters want their tables to order a lot so they’re more likely to rack up tips. Finally, when our friends arrived he came around to take their orders and brought out drinks. It got harder to find him when we were ready to pay, but we could tell he was running around and he was still very happy and patient with everyone. So we went to the booth to buy power cards. When we approached the desk, the guy behind it wasn’t even looking up so I waited for him to indicate that he was ready. He gave us the rudest look as if he was waiting for us. Then, my girlfriend asked for the 4 power card pack, he replied«packS, there’s 4» really rudely as if she didn’t just say that. Then she asked if it was possible to pay separately and again he replied«no» really rudely. So we went off to play games and my girlfriend went to the bar to grab drinks for us while we waited in line for games. One of the female bartenders made direct eye contact with her but almost walked away until she opened her mouth to make the order. She asked for 4 MGDs to which the bartender replied with a snappy tone«I don’t have MGD. And are you here with people? Where are they? I can’t serve you four drinks.» My girlfriend didn’t even bother so she just walked away, and We’re assuming she was treated this way because she’s a younger female. I can guarantee that if she was an older woman, she would not have been turned down like that. Last but not least, we once again tried to get drinks at the bar but of course it was still pretty busy. Another male bartender was going back and forth giving people their bills and such. We were standing behind a couple who asked for their bill, so I made eye contact with him to let him know I wanted to order when he was finished with them. He acknowledged me and continued what he was doing. After he gave them the bill, I expected him to take my order but he walked to the other side of the bar. We completely gave up at this point. So we used up all of our tokens and left. The staff need to be trained more when it comes to customer service. I understand that busy nights can be frustrating, but don’t work in that environment if you can’t handle it.

Good food and games, how can you say no to that? When we sat down, we were offered a dinner and game play card deal, which I would recommend if you plan on playing games for at least for an hour. I ordered the salmon that came with spinach. The fish was well cooked and tasty. Food wise, it was pretty good. The selection of game is pretty impressive. There’s a wide arrange of arcade games in over a large area. Plenty of fun shooting and driving games. They replaced the traditional system of winning tickets with electronic points in your play card. It loses the magic, but it makes it more convenient. In terms of prizes, you don’t get a lot and the amount you need to win prizes is pretty high. Just go and have fun :)

This is the only place where it is socially acceptable to drink and drive… a simulated Daytona race car, that is! If you’re too old to go to Chuckie Cheese and too young to have kids, this is where you go for a night of arcade games and prizes you will never use. Not a terrible way to spend a 22−29th birthday. You buy a card, load it with chips, and off you go. There’s basketball, deal or no deal, fruit ninja, air hockey, zombie shooting games, crazy taxi, ddr, guitar hero — the list goes on and on. While dinner service is pretty slow, it’s understandable given the volume of people around on the weekends. I had the mountain of nachos and my fiancé had the buffalo wing burger. Both were pretty good. Don’t expect a gourmet meal, and you’ll be fine.

This place is huge! It’s massive in size and packed with tons of arcade games with a full bar & kitchen to keep the fun times rolling! They staff was short when we were there. And they were hard to find to order food/drinks when needed. But over al I was happy with the service.

It is a cool and fun place to be with friends or with your date. D & B is really hhhhuggggee! Very nice bar area with so many booze to choose from. Tv’s all over the place, pool area and never forget to play at the arcade-the most fun part! Went there for late dinner, they restaurant closes at midnight I think coz by 11pm, it’s already dead! Servers are friendly but a bit slow to serve the food and doesn’t provide you napkins and cutleries right away, and they won’t even come unless you call them. The food… SO-SO

The games are VERY old and many of them last for like 20 – 40 sec. The food is REALLY bad! The drinks are lees than ok, my Ceaser was bad but other people said their drinks were fine. The place looks old and dirty(my general feeling). I DONOTRECOMMENDTHISPLACEAFTERBEINGTHERE3TIMES(not by my choice).

I used to frequent this place during my university days but have since grown out of it. First off, this place is huge. they have two bars, a dining area, billiards, golf screens, comedy shows, arcade games, large-screen entertainment for any major sports event or UFC fight and much more. I used to come here mainly for the eat and play(back when it was $ 15.99… it is now $ 17.99+?).the food here is alright, normal bar food… but the service is just horrible. It is nearly impossible to flag down a server at the dining area inside the arcade. The games are fun but can get quite pricey. Make sure to sign up for their emails to get coupons! They have half price all games on Wednesdays. The prizes for the games that dispense tickets have gone downhill over the years but a great place to go on a date and win some cute souvenirs. Overall, D&B is still a great place to get together with friends and family for drinks and games!

Changed my 2 star to a 1. Came here tonight for my boyfriends friends birthday. Was kind of dreading it but tried to go in with an open mind. Half the games literally last 30 seconds. On the guitar hero, DDR and one of the sega racing games which are all meant to be 2 player, it wouldn’t let that happen. We sat at a table to catch our breath for under 5 minutes and i got GUM stuck to my(expensive) jeans. Finally to top it all off, I just asked for a glass of ice water and I think I would have been better off sticking a straw into a puddle. Shoot me, also don’t come here.

The experience is getting worse. It’s as if Dave and Buster just gave up. We arrived to catch the Raps and upon entering the bar and front lounge was silent. Our hostess informed us a regular group using the enclosed private functions requested to mute all volume. No compromise was made. Equality gaps exists at this location, beware. So had to sit in the midway where service was slow and tables are not cleaned. Ate the spinach dip and the chips were stale.

This is a two part review. Part one — Restaurant: We were seated right away and given our menus. We were a table of five and had all decided what we wanted to eat long before the server greeted us. We actually waited quite some time for our server. When she finally greeted us, she asked if we had been served yet. Confused, we said no. She then told us she didn’t know what happened to our server(uh, what?) so she would be our server instead. She was very friendly and upbeat so it wasn’t all bad. We put in our orders right away and waited. And waited. It seemed like forever until we finally got our food. I got just a regular cheeseburger off a recommendation from our server. I had originally asked for a different dish but our server suggested(while mentioning that she probably shouldn’t tell me this) that I get something else as my first choice didn’t come highly recommended. I appreciated her honesty. My burger was fine. Nothing special. The fries were super salty though and I couldn’t finish them. Two people at the table got the shrimp and chicken alfredo, but there was no shrimp in it! We mentioned this to the server at the end and she offered us a free dessert. We misunderstood and thought she said we could all get dessert. Since we misunderstood, she still gave us three desserts for free. Very nice of her. Overall, the food was just alright. Nothing to write home about and definitely not worth the long wait. We even waited an extremely long time for our dessert! Part two — Games: My favourite part of D&B has always been the selection of games. Okay, I lied. My favourite part of D&B has always been the fact that you can grab a drink at the bar and bring it with you while you play games. It should be noted that drinks at the bar are expensive. I got a pint of Bud Light and it was over $ 9. A crappy beer like that should never cost that much! There’s a pretty good selection of games. Of course, I managed to find a game that didn’t work when I swiped my card. Staff was quick to come by and look into the game and give me free play on a different game of my choice. Overall, a very fun experience, but the slow service at the restaurant and the insanely high price for beer is what warrants only 3 stars.

this is my playdium for adults; food we had chicken wings, they were okay. The service was slow. I got annoyed by the people who load your card in the games area– she was more concerned about her text convo than she was answering my questions. came here after YEARS on Halloween day. we saw Bobby Motta’s show first and then went to play games. I strongly recommend the show if you have an opportunity to see it, it was great! the Walmart receipt will trip you out.

We went last so we didnt eat much. I ordered the edammane and it somehow took an hour. I asked the waiter and he said the cooked just«forgot» it. Needless to say I was annoyed but it was still good with the drinks. The pools tables were all busy and most of the games were occupied. If we had been able to play it would have been more fun. Over all for a fun night out for drinks and laughs I would go here. The staff is nice and the bartenders are hot ;) We we go back for a full night out I will detail more.

The food was good, nothing too outstanding but it wasn’t bad. We only had apps… we got calamari, fried pickles and nachos. Also got a strawberry watermelon margarita which was way too sweet and syrupy. I had to water it down with some ice water to finish it. It’s always a good place to come have fun and play lots of different games. Love the fact I can have an alcoholic beverage while playing games lol

I had never been to D & B before and took my teenage daughter and her friends. The place is huge. There’s a sports bar, dining area and arcade with dining seating as well. We were sat in a horseshoe shaped booth that sat 5 very comfortably. Pretty large menu. Prices fair. We ordered the Bass Ale fish & chips, the Philly cheese steak with fries, Chicken Quesadilla & that sliders with wings platter. To start off we had the spinach dip & some potatoes skins. There wasn’t a very long wait for the food to arrive and everyone enjoyed their meal. The bill came to $ 100 which is pretty good. I will mention that we all had water wit our meal except for my husband who had a drink from the bar. After dinner we played in the arcade. There are a vast amount of games to choose from. We bought a 6 player combo pack which amounted to $ 25 a person. Some of the games were expensive to play at 11.8 credits! My husband and I managed to collect 4700 tickets from playing. We figured we could get something good with that however we were mistaken. The staff in the ticket store weighed our tickets to tell us how many we had. Most of the items we could purchase with our tickets were garbage. Cheap stuffed animals, cheesy toys. Anything for adults was on the 20,000 ticket range. Info isn’t his odd since this is supposed to be an adult version of Chuck E Cheese. There were a lot of kids there which surprised me as it was my understanding it was supposed to be geared more to adults. I saw signs posted about minors under 19 had to be accompanied by an adult but saw tons of young kids running around the arcade room. There is a bar right in the middle of the action! All in all was a fun night. Don’t think I would go back there again but glad for the experience. Side note: bathrooms are disgusting and located in the arcade so patrons in the sports bar and dining room have to enter through there. Maybe that’s why the staff forgets to tend to them.

I like Dave and Buster’s it’s the only«adult» arcade in the area but there’s some problems. I came here recently for my 21st birthday and while I had a good time like always there were some issues: I came here for lunch and the service was terrible. I was sitting at a booth in the Midway and was there for a good 15 minutes before a server finally acknowledged me. She was incredibly slow at getting our drinks, first I order a Guinness, which is listed on the menu as one of their draught beers. She leaves for about 5 – 10 minutes and informs me that they are out of Guinness. Incredibly unprofessional, this was the first time I’ve been to a restaurant where they were actually out of a beer listed on their drink menu. I then settled for an Alexander Keith’s. She was so slow at pouring our beers that our food actually came out BEFORE we received our drinks! The food, as always was amazing, I got the famous Philly Cheesesteak and fries. The service really ruined the experience though. The server apologized but could tell that she was indifferent and was rude. I then went to play the games and noticed that there were a LOT of games that were out of order, more than there should be in my opinion. Having that many out of order games on the floor is pretty embarrassing. Lastly, the prizes, I’m a big fan of the ticket games because I like redeeming for prizes. I go to the«Winner’s Circle» area with prizes and was very disappointed. The shelves were mostly bare with hardly and good prizes. The ones I was interested in were ridiculously over-valued, like 50,000 tickets for Rock Em Sock Em robots, which are worth about $ 15. I like coming to Dave and Buster’s on occasion but they really need to improve on their service, prizes and maintaining the games on the floor.
