    Games not active

    We brought our 10-year-old in for spring break yesterday evening between 4-7 PM. The food and service were both good--our waitress took great care of us, and we had no issues with anything we ordered. We ended up spending around $200 between dinner, drinks, and gameplay for 2 adults and a kid. Unfortunately, the overall experience was disappointing due to the number of games that were out of service. There were so many unavailable that it really took away from the experience. I'm not usually one to complain, but it became frustrating enough that I even started taking pictures. I eventually stopped because there were just too many to document. Literally if you look at the pics you start to ask yourself are you serious?

    Came in this evening for a late visit and boy was I impressed. This was definitely a true dining experience I wasn't expecting. The staff here is very friendly and I sat at the bar to watch the game. You need to holla at Nick! He is one of the best at the bar. I took his recommendation and had the island waters punch and it was awesome! He made dude my glasses were full and everything stone was kept clean and he was knocking people out left and right. Now the surprise of the evening was my entree. C.J. Is the executive chef and he came out and wanted me to try something different. He brought me a ribeye steak with mashed potatoes and green beans. This was by far one of the best steaks I've ever had. He told me he makes the seasoning himself on the steak. It was so tender and full of flavor. The mashed potatoes were amazing and the green beans were cooked to perfection. The entire experience was one I will do again. Dalton and his group do an amazing job of satisfying everyone that comes in. Please make it your task to visit this place asap!!!

    Buster's Bacon Burger

    First time visiting Dave & Buster's and we had an awesome time!!! We actually decided to go on Valentine's Day 2024. Arriving early there was no problem being able to play the games we wanted to try out. We were two adults enjoying games, a little competion with a side of laughter! I purchased the chips through the app, simple process. We encountered great people while ordering and receiving our food. Now the wait was a little long but once we received our food, all items were delicious. We had Double Pepperoni Flatbread as an appetizer and enjoyed the All American Cheeseburger and Buster's Bacon Burger with fries for our meal. We were able to enjoy $5 drinks (Backwoods Blueberry Lemonade and D&B Long Island Tea) during Happy Hour, not a lot of alcohol but still good! We'll be back!!!

    Dave & Buster's can be a great place to get some family time in so that's exactly what we did! I love that you can spend your time between the food and games however you please. It can be a little hard to get settled at a table or the bar if they are busy but luckily we didn't have to wait long. Our server was a little upset that we ordered drinks at the bar while waiting for a table but that was understandable. We decided on the Cajun shrimp pasta, fries gpt, garlic parmesan wings, and mozzarella stack. The pasta was the star of the show!! We loved it. The wings were good but the fries and wings were not my favorite. The fries must have been sitting for a while bc they were cold and soggy from the sauce. We sent the mozzarella sticks back the first time bc they were still a little frozen in the middle. And when they came back they still had that same chill but decided to just leave it alone. However, the company was good so it didn't put a damper on things too much!

    Caesar wrap with Caesar salad
    Lynn B.

    I was invited to celebrate a 21st birthday on a Tuesday evening. As an older adult, I was not very excited, lol, but wanted to attend the birthday celebration. The party already had a table close to the bar. Service was a little slow,but the waiters were friendly and helpful. The lights and noise level were typical of an establishment of this nature. I was surprised at how good the food was! The mushroom stout burger was juicy and the ingredients were fresh. Parmesan truffle fries were delicious- how can you go wrong with truffle?? I was told the Ceasar wrap was good as well, but they were surprised they had to get a Caesar salad as the side to a Ceasar wrap, lol. Overall, a good experience. Definitely a fun place for kids, teens and adults for gaming fun & food.

    $5 happy hour drinks
    Toni-Cyntina R.

    This was a fun place for date night. We went during happy hour so we got the $5 drinks and plate of nachos. I got a Long Island tea and my man got a beer. We were still a little hungry so we got a plate of wings Our server was sooo kind and helped us get a card to load for games after our meal. Some of the games were more fun than others but overall it was a great place to be a big kid!

    Food was good. Way too much dressing on my Caesar but meat was great on both dishes. Server was attentive. Games were a lot of fun. One game was malfunctioning and I was unable to find a member of staff to help. Plenty of games to move on to. Overall a pretty chill afternoon

    Nachos

    OMG. I wish I could give them zero stars. This experience was absolutely terrible. The kids wanted to play so we decided to pop in and grab a "quick" appetizer until they were done. It took about 5 full minutes for our server to come by and greet us. When he finally did, he took our drink and food orders, but it was another full 5 minutes before we saw him again. The food finally came out but we had no forks or appetizer plates and our server was gone. The quesadillas were burnt, the nachos were terrible, and the Philly cheesesteak egg rolls left a taste in my mouth that I remember 5 hours later-and not in a good way. The server left every cup on the table when we got refills. Then when it came time to pay, he took our money and was gone for 10 minutes before we got change. Three bad appetizers and bad service is not a coincidence. I'm not impressed at all.

    The fam had a good time
    Russell M.

    The food was good. I ended up getting fish and chips. My wife ended up getting a flatbread pizza. We had so much fun playing the games. It's always a good time. First time taking my son sure it won't be the last.

    Not the same noodles, Veggie still raw , has pork , and hardly no chicken

It's date night. We are a party of two. Sharing food is our new thing and Walk On's makes this so easy. We ordered onion rings and a catfish platter with fries. LOTS OF FOOD. Grayson was our server, thank you Man!! Everything was perfect. I left there full! Had to ease out of the to-go back door. Y'all already know, I'll be back!!!

We chose to sit on the patio since the Alabama heat has FINALLY settled down a smidge. The patio was spacious with plenty of tables as well as couches. There are several televisions positioned around the patio, so no matter where you sit, you can still catch the game. While it is definitely a sports restaurant, it also felt very family friendly. There were even a couple of young girls recording a TikTok on the patio, which brought a smile to my face. Our server was McKenna. She was pleasant throughout our visit, and it was obvious that she was making an effort to provide good service. She took our drink orders promptly, and our food came out fairly quickly. I ordered the Ahi Tuna salad and was pleasantly surprised by the size. It was not only plentiful, but beautiful and delicious! My son's food must have been delicious because he finished it in record time. His significant other did not have quite the same experience. She ordered her burger without lettuce, tomato, or mayonnaise, but it arrived with all three. Her fries, which she had been looking forward to, were also very hard. She ended up taking her burger apart to remove the toppings and left nearly all of the fries untouched after trying one. In McKenna's defense, it was a bit loud on the patio, so it is certainly possible she did not hear the request to leave the lettuce, tomato, and mayonnaise off the burger. Toward the end of our meal, my remaining salad had been boxed to go and it was clear we were finished. After waiting about 15 minutes, we eventually had to ask for our check. When McKenna brought it, she explained that she had accidentally mixed up our check with the table behind us, who had already left. She was apologetic and explained that their ticket, which she handed to us, was lower than ours and hoped we did not mind. We certainly did not mind paying less, but I did feel bad knowing the other table had apparently paid about $10 more than they should have. As we were leaving, I also noticed quite a few napkins, dishes, and other items scattered around the patio. More frequent attention to clearing and tidying the outdoor area would make an already nice patio space even more enjoyable. Overall, it was an okay first experience, and I would definitely give Walk On's another try because there were several things on the menu that caught my attention. McKenna was kind and pleasant, and I do not want the mistakes during our visit to overshadow that. However, between the incorrect food order, the delay with the check, and the ticket mix up, I do think some additional training and attention to detail would be beneficial. And that Ahi Tuna salad? I'd order it again in a heartbeat!

Seated immediately and ready to take your order as soon as you decide. The Standard Burger (Lettuce. tomato, onion, pickles, horsey sauce & american cheese) is really good. Fries are cooked just right. Previously I got a mix of the Fries and Onion Rings. Onion Rings are great too! I have had The Three Hander sandwich (Niman ranch corned beef, fries, tomato, jalapenos, creamy slaw, dijonaise, mozzarella on sourdough) from their original location which is great too. I should probably try other things as well but the lunch deal is hard to pass up. Since it is not too far from my office, will definitely continue to be a part of my regular lunch rotation. Only downside for me is the parking. There are limited spots on the street out front.

Each day there is a different drink as a special. I enjoyed the music and the vibe. Would come back to this place when I'm in Birmingham again.

Because of the intense Alabama heat, we chose to sit inside, though they have a really nice screened-in patio available. The restaurant is intimate but well laid out, featuring a couple of distinct dining areas and a bar. Since it was our first time, our server, Daniella, recommended the candied bacon bombs to start. They came with a side of cheese curds, and both were absolutely delicious. Even as small as the curds were, they had a perfect cheese pull! For our mains, I ordered the cowboy burger with an added egg and a side of sweet potato fries, while my son chose the shrimp and grits. My burger was incredible, a solid 9.5 out of 10. My son rated his shrimp and grits a 7, though he has a lot of experience with that dish to compare it to. Daniella provided fantastic service, checking in at just the right times without hovering. I later realized I forgot to ask if they do anything special for birthdays, but honestly, my son was probably glad I forgot!
