    Our waitress was the highlight, unfortunately I forgot her name but she was from the Bay Area and was AMAZING! Food was good, drinks were even better.

    D&B was extremely wonderful from the start at the front desk throughout our leaving. The entire staff was very helpful & friendly! We had a Birthday party for 11 (4 kids) & everyone complimented on Dave & Busters was the BEST!

    We sat at the table for 10 minutes before the waitress showed up. We asked for a high chair or booster chair for our child, which never came. Food was brought by a runner and we were never given napkins or silverware. The kids Mac and cheese was worse than Kraft Out of the Box.

    The service was atrocious. Took over 30 mins to get drinks. Food was cold and sitting there for too long.

    Great service, food was delicious, and the half off food was a great deal for me and my family. Please do pop up sales of half off food throughout the year.

    All the servers were very attentive and great to deal with. We were able to split the bill in 3 different ways which is always a plus with a group of people.
