Small care shop with space for playing card games. They primarily have magic the gathering and one other game (forgot the name). My little brother was on the hunt for Pokémon cards and so that's why we stopped in, they had a few, but it is definitely not their main card game that they support here. And it's still worth a visit and if you're looking to explore outside of Pokémon and into maybe magically gathering or the other game that I can't remember, the staff was really friendly and answering questions. read more

I am making this review as a Digimon TCG card game player, unfortunately this place ended up being a disappointment both for playing other people as well as buying cards Starting with positives really quick The store itself does look nice for the decent amount of players I'm guessing for their more popular games it's a solid way to spread people out They have this cool TCG player system where if you make an order on it but you live close by and want to pick up the card you can order to do so and save yourself some shipping costs and basically have to hold on to a card for a little bit Sadly we already have to go on to the bad news They have a Digimon tournaments every Sunday, but sadly it's pretty clear that they don't prioritize them anymore. Not necessarily their fault in this regard but be lucky if two to four people show up on a good day for a Sunday evening local However what is the store's fault is even when four people show up for a tournament proper they don't even give out the tournament participation packs even though they have a whole bunch of them in a glass case right in the front instead they just did a cash only pricing The real issue and what made me make this low review is I actually try to use the pickup a card in store been through TCG player to save myself some shipping costs Unfortunately when I went in to pick in the card and pay they apparently made a flub up when entering the card in the system They ended up trying to search for the card for like 20 minutes and just had to go up to me and apologize and said they must have screwed up and that they would have to cancel my order That was very disappointing for me as someone who bought the card early in the week and they are only open in store Friday through Sunday in the afternoons and evenings. So basically waiting a week only to be told that they can't even properly save a single Digimon card basically lost all my motivation to go back to the store to both play Digimon and buy cards from there. This System probably works well for a card game they care more about like one piece or final Fantasy or maybe even vanguard If anyone is reading this and wants to find other Digimon locals You can go to table salt in Irvine which at least gives participation packs even when the attendance is low If you want locals that have decently high attendance on average You can go to card addiction in Anaheim on Friday evenings or go to psycho Turtle in Pico Rivera on Tuesdays Thursdays or Saturday evenings read more

Shout to Max, Henry, & the rest of the team! All laidback, welcoming folks. Mainly around for Final Fantasy TCG gaming, so if you're looking for a group or sealed product tap in! No sales pressure at all too. But they'll help you with the itch as best as they can lol. They also carry Dragon Ball, Digimon, Pokemon, and Flesh & Blood as their main selections. They also seem to experiment with other TCGs and are open to all ideas that would help the hobby for both ends. So whatever TCG you play or are looking into, check in with these guys. read more

When I walked into the store with my boyfriend, I noticed half of the people inside were not wearing masks which is unacceptable! It doesn't matter if they are the owners or in charge of the store, they need to follow the state rules! I would not want to return to this store because it made me uncomfortable. read more

This place is soooooooooo fuckin Beautiful people and so kind I love henry I love brian I love brian I love max read more

Zeke and company are super awesome! They gave me a good amount for my Yu gi oh cards and they made me feel super nostalgic while doing it! Thanks for making me feel like I was a kid again and talking through new meta! read more

I feel that the owner provides a negative or even lazy attitude of the store. The other workers there are nice and greet me when I had entered. From the times I've been there, the owner has consistently been too involved in his own actvities, i.e. with his friends I assume?, instead of aiding willing customers. My realization of this came to be when I planned to participate at a dbs tournament. The tournament was supposed to start at 2:30 and I had waited until 3 and still no word of the tournament. I shouldn't have waited so long to begin with but when I asked if there would be a tournament, the owner said it starts at 2:30pm. It was already 3pm and I obviously just wasted 30 minutes waiting for nothing so I had packed up my things and left. The store is spacious and I hoped to be a regular there but there should be some sort of announcement for newcomers if no tournament would be held. read more

This store doesn't exist. There's no new store. They don't answer the phone. This store is no longer in business.

This shop continues to impress me. Despite the COVID and not being able to play in-stores. The staff and the owner helps and meets all expectations and beyond. They provide links for all available online platforms to play your favorite TCG/CCG games (if available online), offer competitive prices, and you're able to approach them without any fear because you know that they'll help you. Great shop! read more

I visited this shop about two months ago when I first started playing Dragon Ball Super tcg. The staff was very friendly and really welcomed me and any questions I had about the game/scene. Since then, they have now moved to a larger location that is clean and spacious for large tournaments. Their DBS tournaments usually have 10-30 people with a wide range of skill level, but the players/judges are generally nice. In my opinion, this place attracts a large number of skilled players though. The vibe here is pretty chill, unless there's a huge tourney going on or something. In terms of pricing, this place offers competitive deals for singles/bulk cards. Highly recommend this place if you're interested in DBS. read more

The owner is a super fun and chill dude. I like playing here because my friends come and play and have fun. They just started doing yugioh again which is awesome and I'm glad that they do. The only concern I have is that if you have a set time for your store to be open please arrive at the time the store is suppose to be open or before to get work done. It just looks unprofessional and weird having players stand outside of the store waiting for it to open and it's not open on the time it says. I remember when he first opened the store he was so motivated and it was great to see the spark but now I feel it's slowly fading out. I hope you regain the motivation and confidence to run your store proudly. read more

Great shop with great customer experience! Very quick responses on their social media. Best of all, great prices!!! 5/5 would totally recommend anyone to check this shop out for your needs. read more

When I came here for a Cardfight Vanguard tournament the "owner" or "worker" made us wait an additional 40 minutes past the start time of the tournament for his 4 friends to show up. On top of that only 1 or 2 of them played in the tournament which had 15 people already waiting. I looked past this and went to a Sneak preview event here and the "limited playmats" were ONLY given out to the "owner's"/"workers" FRIENDS. I was completely baffled when each time someone was "randomly" picked it was one of their friends! They even gave 2 playmats to one of their friends at the end of the event! This shop doesn't care about new customers and only caters to their friends/locals. Never again will I commute 30 minutes to this shop. Very sad since this is the closest Cardfight Vanguard shop to my location, but beware if you decide to go there. read more

My brother and I have never played any card games before and we ended up at CGC and it was the highlight of our holiday. Not only did the staff go above and beyond to welcome us and help us learn the game we were trying to play, but the community there is absolutely amazing. Everyone is so welcoming and friendly that they instantly make you feel at home and part of their group. Each time I left card game coliseum I left significantly happier than when I arrived. I would recommend this place to absolutely everyone! read more

Absolutely amazing shop! Met one of the owners, Henry and he was so welcoming and inviting. Talked to us for a while about different card games. Wound up purchasing 2 pre-built Final Fantasy card decks and we played as soon as we got home. Great game and great recommendation. Henry gave us a promo deck for Dragonball Z and we can't wait to bust that open and learn too. We found them just from searching "card shops in the area" on Google. Great people, great shop. If you want a friendly and knowledgeable environment, go here. read more

One of my favorite card shops to visit. The staff is very knowledgeable, the place is maintained very well, and the prices are fair and affordable. The owner is a very nice person, down to earth, and is willing to help and strike a deal with you. Everyone is friendly and welcoming. Overall, it is nice place to play and hang out with friends and/or meet new people. Highly recommend Card Game Coliseum. read more

This place was good, but seems to not run tournaments for buddy fight or dragon ball. Not a lot of card selection. Extremely behind of Vanguard, not a lot of new cards. But they do have yugioh again. So it's okay read more

Always seems dead there. Tournaments never really pop off. It's mostly the store's team hanging out and playing. The Chinese co owner doesn't really seem like he wants to be there or acknowledge you. Doesn't really welcome you. The white co owner is pretty mellow. The mexican owner is pretty chill. That owner is willing to help you. They have cards but they never really have any good singles for sale (good cards or high rarity) when my friends and I go. Not a lot of people show up so you really play test a lot. read more

Pretty dead here. Not a lot people come anymore :/ Asian owner doesn't even have customer service and seems to be a bad mood a lot.

This is by far the best card shop in Orange County. If you are looking play Dragon Ball Super & Final Fantasy, then search no more. This place is so clean, the prices are more than fair, the customer service is unreal. They know how to make you feel welcomed and comfortable. Events are frequent and the turnouts have been wonderful. Card Game Coliseum is hands down the best. Thank you so much CGC! read more

This is probably the best card shop I've visited in a good while. Staff is incredibly welcoming and friendly, the prices are very fair, and they have a good selection of various cards games. This is my go-to card shop for anything tcg related whether it be cards or supplies now. read more

I came here looking to pick up some Final Fantasy TCG singles. I had no knowledge this place existed and I must say I was not disappointed. It is not a cramped store, the shopkeeprlers were very helpful, and the customers were very friendly. I plan to visit this place more to pick up Final Fantasy singles and hope to get a few games with the customers. read more

Great place for many tcgs(Yugioh, Magic, Final Fantasy tcg, Dragonball Super tcg, and more) Amazing selection for singles with fair prices, and very welcoming atmosphere. Everyone that works here is very helpful and knowledgeable. Tournaments and events are put together well and run smoothly. read more

Best card shop which specializes on card games outside of the big 3. Great staff, and great selection, great venue.

Everyone at Card Game Coliseum is super helpful, they have a great selection of FFTCG, and the players at the shop are all super nice and friendly. The Final Fantasy prices are fair. There's a great broad range of players for Final Fantasy ranging from brand new to seasoned veteran. The shop has consistently had FFTCG tournaments at least once a week since the game launched. read more

Great selection of different TCGs, tournaments are weekly and helpful staff and friendly locals. Also an amazing owner who knows what he's doing. read more

This is one of the better card shop in the OC. They are very friendly and great at helping developing card games but as well as willing to get any stock that you may need for you even if they do not have it in stock. They are a great place to buy, sell, and trade. The environment actually pertains to the true nature and way of trading card games. It is a great and relaxed environment to come and play. Their tourney are great and well balanced unlike other card shop in the area that rigs their tourney or turn people away with racism. They respect every player that walks in. The staff is great. Have been going to them since they were barely open. read more
