Odyssey truly gave us an authentic oldie arcade feel. We google searched the place and thought it may be a big place like D&B or Round One but it's not, which it was totally fine because they got a good selections of games. There's a section newer games, a computer gaming section, good amount of pinball machines, and classic oldies. They serve ramen, boba drinks, Japanese snacks, and alcoholic beverages. We had just ate, but we smelled the ramen and it smelled soooo good. I tried the Thai tea and loved the texture of the boba. The price for the tea was higher than other places I've been to but the prices for games are pretty cheap so it makes up for it. The inside is pretty dark so if you enter during the bright day light, it'll take a second to adjust, vice versa. Overall, a pretty cool spot to hang, especially for the locals. read more

When you're in the mood for some retro video games and pinball machines (and you're in Kendall) this is your spot! From Galaga to Dig Dug to Ms PacMan to Frogger and Super Mario Brothers, there's something for everyone! Definitely worth the drive to the South. A+ read more

I loooooove this place! So fun for a random night out with friends. The games are also pretty fun

It's like a whole new world in here. They have arcades games everywhere and other games like beer pong (without the beer) but you can buy a beer if you'd like that too. They also offer some food like ramen bowls. I spent $10 and received 33 tokens and we played for like an hour or a little more. Pretty cool spot to chill at with a partner or a group. read more

Arcade Odyssey - Arcades Near Me - Miami, Florida

Great Arcade my all time favorite ever! Would give 10 stars if I could! Great games, great drinks, great times with friends. Great events hosted here as well. Only con is because of the events. I have noticed some creepy guys at their events, cosplay, anime etc, trying to pickup girls only to act creepily when rejected. Of course this is not the stores fault at all, these things can't be avoided at times. But if your teenage daughter or son is planning on coming to one of their nighttime events make sure they come with an adult or group of friends. TLDR great arcade, great drinks, great events. Creepy guys every once and a while but stay safe. read more

It's always a lot of fun playing video games I grew up with. The location is kind of small but they do a good job of fitting a variety of games in. They also have snacks and drinks if your in the mood. There are also tournaments held there and other things that a gamer would be interested in. The people who run the place are nice and helpful if you have questions and it's not that expensive at all to play the games. The only thing that sucks is that some of the actual customers are a little bit douchey. They don't say excuse me and bump into you like your "on their turf" or something. Again, the clientele most the time are teens and overgrown kids who still play video games "competitively." I'm not trying to knock on anyone who plays games this much, but don't act like a douche to others. Come here at least once if your into classic arcade games and give it a try. After that I would say it's up to you to decide on more visits. Going earlier in the day is a better experience overall. read more

Arcade Odyssey - Sea of pinball machines. - Arcades Near Me - Miami, Florida

We need more places like this. Took my teen daughter and her friends for a night out. They really liked it because of all the retro games. The day we went, they had a cosplay contest and it was fun to see everyone all dressed up. read more

I've visited Arcade Odyssey many times and it's a really cool place. I had never been to an arcade before and when I heard about this arcade, I knew I had to check it out. I went tonight with my boyfriend and we were both so surprised to see that it was revamped! We were so excited to see what was new. There's more space, new games, a second room with even more games, and there's a food bar in the works. We both had an awesome time! We will definitely come again to play more of the new games and check out the new additions. read more

If I could give this place more stars I totally would... this place is a throwback to a better time, when arcades were not just rooms full of people pumping money into redemption machines in the hopes of winning some $0.25 "prize"... this is from a time when games were fun! This is a 100% authentic arcade, complete with insane blacklight reactive carpeting, lots of arcade and pinball machines screaming for your quarters (or tokens in this case)... along with some newer stuff (consoles and such)... and as far as I know, pretty sure this is the *ONLY* arcade in Miami You can tell this place is run by a collector, and not an operator (arcade/pinball persons will understand as soon as you walk in) so games are immaculate, no "well it works good enough" here, everything is shiny and works 100% which is a nice departure from the last few (now defunct) arcades we had here in Miami Most of the arcade games are in candy cabs with monitors that are all bright and sharp, buttons work 100% etc read more

Arcade Odyssey - I win! T2 Pinball :) - Arcades Near Me - Miami, Florida

Great place to spend some time with friends. It's also pretty affordable. We spent $20 between four of us and we were entertained for an hour or two. They have all sorts of games: Pac-Man, pinball, dance dance and even some PCs. They have a bar (they only serve beer though) and sell ramen noodles if you get hungry. It was a great experience for both kids and adults read more

My wife took me here for a Birthday! She knows first hand how I like to travel around to classic arcade's! I love pinball and well, they have some pinball games! I was very happy to see the pin's were all in working order. I played each one! This arcade is classic, so they use quarters. I actually like quarters, because I don't have to spend every last token before I leave. This location has some really cool games! They had this punching game. Small gloves would flip out as you were battling the boss on the TV screen. I found this game to be really fun. They also had a motion game where you had to crouch down behind cars to avoid shots. They have a pretty large line of Candy Cabs some with Japanese games. Some of the Japanese SHMUPS are difficulty unreal. LoL This location is pretty small for an arcade but at the same time, its not a tiny location or small selection of games. They have a great selection some stuff I have never seen before. Some newer games and lots of the classics. They have a really great line up. Lets not forget they also have Japanese snacks and some drinks. They had some Play Stations and XBox's setup also. The games were all in good working order, NO dead monitors or sick games. read more

Had a blast here the other day! Although I am fairly convinced my date was cheating the whole time- he kept shooting me and somehow won at donkey kong even though I was a level above him ;P - I gave him a good game too! And surprisingly, we actually made it into the high scores!!! Woohoo! Got to leave our names on the scoreboard!! XD That air hockey table was wickedly calling our names all night, and after a good competitive, quite amazing comeback on my part, he STILL won! :) That's ok, because with that air ball table next to it, I'm not sure what it was called, I firmly KICKED his butt! :D It really was like a blast from the past, all these amazing games and pinball machines. Which brings up another point, since I just couldn't seem to keep my ball in the right direction, that my date had probably put in some unknown code to make me lose since he went first. ;) All in all, we had an amazing night! A great time spent just kicking it old school with a fantastic companion! Would definitely come again, if for no other reason then to just get a rematch at the air hockey!!! read more

Walk into the doors of Arcade Odyssey and you walk straight back into the 90's. The place is small with three rows of back to back machines! You'll see hardcore DDR dancers, concentrated Mortal Combat fighters, and people setting high scores on classic games like Pacman and Donkey Kong. Behind the counter filled with Japanese candy stands a beautiful girl rocking a band tee and blue hair in pigtails. It almost felt like after playing a few games my boyfriend and I were gonna go see a Pink Floyd Laser Light Show at the Planetarium and make-out à la Freaks and Geeks. It's very inexpensive, most machines cost 2 tokens! My boyfriend and I spent an hour enjoying the atmosphere and games and spent only $10! We went on a Thursday night so I was surprised by how many people were on the PCs and walking around! I wouldn't say it's ideal for kids under the age of 10 since a lot of these games require appreciation haha! It's great for those of us in our 20s-30s that can walk into nostalgia! read more

So happy they are opened back up. They expanded with a bar area and it's amazing. Awesome customer service and a lot more games.

Feel like getting your old school game on or try your hand at figuring out an asian game you dont understand? Than swing on by! Alsi pocky. They have pocky. They have fucking pocky and hello panda . I have found my new home. As if it wasnt bad enough that i spend entirely too much time on my xbox this might take away my freshly bronzed skin. read more

okay coming on here to give a proper review Bc last time i was under the influence lol. This place is awesome !! it's been a little too packed for my taste but it's fun and a great setting so what can you expect. just bring hand sanitizer with you when you come. They do provide but i just feel safer with my own. The onlyyyyy thing i can say about this place is that they do need to update their air hockey asap read more

Good place they have a lot of old arcades and is super cool the have I even king of fighters games

Love the old-school 80's vibe in this place! I feel like I time warped back to my teenage years. Sure you can download old video games to your PC or Xbox, but nothing beats standing at an old game console, dropping coins in, and trying to beat the high score! Great place! read more

great drink selection and yummy snacks. super great spot to hang out and the staff is super friendly read more

Love this place. Came here with 2 other friends. Only spent 20 dollars for the coins to play and it was enough! Small chill spot after kid hours. read more

Arcade Odyssey - Enjoying some games before our food :) - Arcades Near Me - Miami, Florida

Best arcade ever and they have something I've been looking for for a long time pokeys it's really organized and clean I love it

I went to this cool retro arcade (which it seemed at the time) then when I entered, I was Overwhelmed by the noise and lights that I played almost everything then I saw a naked cutout of hatsune Miku, ruined my favorite game. I was with my family too read more

This is cute hole in the wall arcade that has a ton old school games. They have a really cute cafe that serves a small number of Japanese dishes and beers. It's a dark and dingy no frills little spot to check out if you like that stuff. Cute for a date night. Note* These games are not the best for smaller kids. read more

Great games, great beer choices, and $20 will take you a long way. I love coming here with friends.

Arcade odyssey is the last bation of nerdom in south Florida. This place has all the amenities you could possibly ask for. Pinball, air hockey. And all the freaking 80s games you could possibly imagine. They have some PCs, which is alright for all those that are looking for a replacement lan cafe, or need to do their home work cause mdc is right up the street. Plenty of food options near by, and I heard this place is adding a freaking bar. Finally gonna have a barcade in my area, and I'm stoked. Thanks Ao!!!! read more

First time here, small location was packed (could be because of summer) they have beer and food which is great. There was only one machine out of order. I think this is a great place for nostalgia but I don't recommend large groups. Will def try to go back and give the beer and games another try read more

Great fun! Retro arcade, Japanese machines, pinball, air hockey, even PC gaming. They've got it all. We spent hours here and had a fantastic time. Having great beer on tap was a definite plus! We will be back! read more

The only issue with Arcade Odyssey is that it isnt BIGGER lol. First time going there this weekend and it was a blast. Lots of interesting games (some I have never seen) and not hard on the wallet. Like I said the only thing I would change is I would make it bigger. Great time can't wait to go again. read more

This beats any arcade I've ever visited, and i've visited plenty. The games are unique and entertaining, and to start playing you don't need a whole lot of cash. Instead of ugly Dave n Buster cards, you get the old school tokens everybody loves. Non of the machines are broken they're all in high maintenance, unlike most arcades. Best of all guitar hero works like it should. The arcade stays open till 2 am so if that party you had planned just got raided, arcade odyssey is the spot. Not the greatest spot for food and drinks, but if you are hungry (or sober) they could supply. Go. now. stop what you're doing, and just go. Stop reading this review just go. Uninstall yelp. and go..............go. now. go now now go go now NOW GO. read more

I always have a great time ! Happy they added the bar and some finger foods it was a great idea to get people there and playing games from the past. read more

Pretty cool old school spot.No Dave and Busters tho and too many kids in a small area.

A great alternative if you're looking to do something different! Yeah, we all know that feeling. It's Friday (or maybe Saturday night) you're with your friends/family, trying to decide what to do. Check out the same bars you've already been to? Watch a movie? Go out to dinner? What about play some games? It doesn't matter the age, you will find something to do here (it's fine, take your abuelita or your group of 20/30-year-old friends). Arcade Odyssey is located in Kendall, stationed in a normal everyday plaza. Because of this, you would think it would be pretty small, but they pack it in inside! It still retains that classic, old-school arcade feel, utilizing every square foot it has to its advantage. There are so many different types of games - Mortal Kombat, Space Invaders, PacMan, Dance Dance, Time Crisis - along with air hockey, a variety of pinball machines, and computer gaming in the back. Go with a group of friends and share your tokens. We only spent $10 and played a good amount of games, replaying some two or three times. They do sell snacks or sodas, even some popular Japanese brands. There is a bathroom in the back (near the pinball machines) and a water fountain if you need a quick drink. If you're in the area check it out - and if you're not, just make the drive. You will have a great time and it beats being on your phone or out doing the same thing. read more

This place is literally a hole in the wall. Prices are very reasonable, you can get 69 coins for $20. Most games are 2 coins the most expensive ones are 4 coins per player. They have some old school and pretty modern games. They also have a ramen menu, bubba tea, mochi ice cream and a huge selection of local beers. If you want to go down memory lane for video games I highly recommend this place. read more

Hubby and I were hanging out with our teenagers, and I was recalling Flippers from back in the days, when he mentioned he heard about an arcade in the area. I searched on Yelp and found this arcade, as I had no idea it existed. The place was small but didn't fall short of entertainment. We had a great time playing all the different arcade and pinball machine games. They even have an area in the back for LAN tournaments/parties. Recommend this place to anyone for some good old fashioned fun. read more
