A very nice place. They have a nice selection of alcohol, and mixed drinks. The smash burgers they…read moresell are assembled well and even with two patties, the lettuce, onions, and tomatoes are not overpowered. There is a free and paid arcade, which is very nice. I imagine most younger children will prefer the paid side of the arcade given there are prizes and more modern games, but I like the older free side for the way it captures the time. All and all it is a great spot for anyone of any generation, and has a little bit of something for everyone.

My boyfriend and I have been here once but only to check it out as we were coming up from Oregon…read more We have visited the Olympia location and have done trivia, ordered food and drinks and hung out at the location. We wanted to participate in the video game trivia that was hosted at the Centralia one and we decided to stop by 30ish minutes before they started at 7 which they did start on the dot. When you arrive, you go through the restaurant first and you are able to seat yourselves then wait until a server notices to drop off menus and take your order. The menu can be a bit confusing as they have some drink items on the regular menu and a secret menu and limited menu with food or dessert on the drink menu. It took a little bit to get noticed but we got a Hogwash potion and a Yoshi's Island for drinks as we had just had dinner elsewhere as the food prices here a bit much and not worth price but their video game or other nerdy themed drinks which some can be mocktails are fantastic. My boyfriend's Hogwash potion didn't take long and it was cool to see it opened with vapors coming out. My drink took much more time but it felt like it was more ice than anything as I felt like I had maybe four sips before it was all good. The trivia was great but they were having mic issues but it was also just hard to hear the host as we were sitting on the opposite end of where the host was. There are TVs that have the questions so that was very helpful. The service here is friendly but it would have been nice to be checked on more as I wanted to order another drink but their loss, I suppose. My boyfriend and I ended up getting first place but I'm also a little sad cause I didn't see a way to get points for our order today as I know they have a Toast reward system.

I heard amazing reviews about this restaurant, and my group and I tried it out the other night…read more It's a very small, intimate restaurant. Recommendations are highly suggested! We called the day of, and they were booked out until 7:45. Which makes sense considering how small the restaurant is. I'll start off by saying that the food was the highlight of the night for sure. But, the service wasn't the best from what I've heard from others. We ordered a bottle of wine, which took about 10-15 minutes to be served to us after the order was taken. Then when we were putting our appetizer order in, the server told us to wait while he handled something else. But, I've heard from close friends that the service is amazing, so maybe it was just an off-night for them. Anywho, we ordered the arancini, arugula and Gorgonzola salad, and the caprese. My favorite was the caprese. The tomato's were nice and juicy and tasted amazingly fresh. Mozzarella and basil also delicious. It was a nice refreshing appetizer. The arancini is a pretty heavy dish which makes sense since it's risotto stuffed with bolognese and cheese. I wish it was hotter, but the flavors were yummy. I ordered the bucatini that was on their specials menu. It was served with a sauce similar to Alfredo but a lot lighter than I expected. It also came with zucchini, mushrooms, and a prosciutto-like meat. It was my first time trying bucatini, and I was definitely not disappointed by it! They had great specials that night, so we were very fortunate to have caught them serving these dishes. We finished the night off with tiramisu, and it was delicious. Overall, I would definitely come back and hope for better service. But the food is something I would come back to regardless.

They assumed that because I am Black that I came in there to steal because I couldn't afford any of their wines. The snobby younger manager claimed that I had shoved her in the store proving the lies white women will tell to get Black Americans in "trouble". Moreover, both female managers made it well known they didn't like my presence and didn't want my business. This tacky bottle shop sells overpriced mid grade wines one can easily find at Total Wines and More without the snobbishness.

Excellent! We loved…read moreeverything about our dining experience. We dined mid-week and the restaurant was bustling. We were quickly seated for our reservation, and our server was friendly & attentive. We started off with a delectable appetizer special of burrata with heirloom tomatoes, pesto and olive tapenade. The tangy tapenade really complimented the creamy burrata. We were also served the softest french bread, which sopped up the pesto so nicely. We were lucky enough to get a bite of all 4 dinner entrees on the table. I ordered one of the daily specials, the Saltimbocca. The chicken/prosciutto combo was so flavorful in the white wine sauce. The portion was plentiful, I could have taken a doggy bag, but devoured it bite by bite. I was thankful to have made this choice - score! Hubs ordered the Diavola pizza, with crisp pepperoni and pickled serranos. Either the serranos or red pepper sauce gave it quite the kick, not overly, but deliciously. It was perfectly crispy! Family ordered Carbonara and the lamb ragu. Both great portions, very flavorful! Our dinners came with a salad, which was a perfectly lightly dressed compliment to the appetizer and mains. We drove quite awhile in 5:00 traffic to get here, but it was well worth it. We savoured every bite!

Next best was the bread - it was perfectly soft inside with a crispy crust. Between how oily the dish was and my nose running from the increased spice as I continued eating, I wouldn't return for this dish. The eggs weren't noticeable in appearance or taste- I had to search for them. The "creamy grits" were creamy, but the black pepper taste was STRONG. Definitely ordered the side for the "creamy" factor, hoping when the server said harissa in the eggs would have a mild spice, that the grits would calm my mouth. The amount of pepper made this unsuccessful. But if you like black pepper a lot then you'll enjoy them. My son enjoyed the beignet's. The server was also the host and he was kind. It was easy to get his attention when needed. I didn't see anyone with a grin on their face after taking bites of their food. I looked around quite a bit out of curiosity. So for ambiance, kind and prompt service, and the possibilities of the menu I gave it 4 stars. We only tried the few things I mentioned. I did also appreciate the bottle of water ready on every table. Note that there is no kids menu and it's mostly table seating. So maybe try on your own or with other adults, and leave the kids at home?
