    Great food & drink, service is hit or miss but shout out to Josh (server), Curtis (manager), John (manager), and Kevin (games guru) for consistently superb hospitality! Admittedly, I'm a little bent out of shape that Dave & Busters increased the wait time between game play to 40 seconds (why?). It used to be 30 seconds between games, using the season pass card. Even the 30-second wait was a pain. Please fix that "value reduction", someone. Otherwise a fun place to hang out, especially now that they have lots of new games. I wish all patrons would treat the place with respect and not throw trash everywhere in the game room. More trash cans, please. Cheers, FloweryDapple

    Hadn't been in since their interior remodel. Came today and had fun playing ski ball, air hockey, & a few games in the a/c in the middle of a hot afternoon. I was surprised at how un crowded it was, nice surprise! Didn't eat or drink here today but saw good happy hours specials & late night drink specials for $5.

    Tastes for tickets 2024 - new menu

    Dave & Buster's has been promoting their new menu with 50% off, so we decided to have a lunch date there. Unfortunately, we learned our go-to menu items were discontinued. I miss the salmon with mashed potatoes and green beans. Husband misses the voodoo pasta. We really enjoyed the barbacoa fries, but neither of us was impressed with our entrees. I had the bacon burger, and he had Cajun pasta. I can't say that we will hurry back. This used to be a place we frequented for good food and games. Hopefully their Tastes for Tickets program is still running. We used to cash in our tickets for food.

    We came for my son's 13th birthday on Wednesday night and it was a great experience. We had 8 ppl in our party and booked a reservation online for the TV area that had tables and booths, and far enough away from the bar and games to decrease sound. Our server took great care of us checking in on orders and drinks. We also had a lot of help from the front desk loading a game card. Games are half priced on Wednesday. My son played a lot and we still have several points on the card to come back. Food was good. I didn't see anyone complaining or send back their food. I ordered the burger and fries. At night they offer app and drink specials, 9p and later. So many games!!! The whole area is brightly colored. We didn't experience games being out of order. I loved all the small tables scattered in the space to place bags and purses or drinks. The entrance does have a lot of steps. Around the corner is an elevator to get to the main floor.

    Still one of our favorite places to go for date night! Tried one of the adult beverages and it was suuuuuper tasty. Caribbean Long Island Ice tea. I don't like the taste of alcohol but this thing basically tasted like candy. We really like the addition to the life size Hungry Hungry Hippos game since it was one of my favorites as a kid. We used the coat check for the first time. It's $1 an item which honestly seems ridiculous to me, but we did it anyway. All the employees are super nice although it did take us a bit for someone to get us drinks because we walked up to the bar instead of sitting. Such a great place for dates, families or just to go eat.

    Cooked properly but lacked any seasoning

    This will be a mixed review. I'll start with the negatives then end with the positives. Arrived around midday so it wasn't too busy which allowed us to find a table quickly. The server which was I think the bar tender quickly took our order and was very polite. After our food arrived, this is where the quality took a hit. The Philly cheesesteak was a 6/10 and was heavily salted. The shrimp and steak Alfredo was...warm at best and the steak was supposed to be a medium well. You can tell by the picture it was short of expectations. We informed the server who quickly informed the kitchen who prepared another steak which was cooked properly but.. I think they forgot the seasoning as it has no flavor at all. The rest of the party agreed that the ambiance was very nice but the food feel short of satisfactory. The rest of D&B was good e.g. the games, customer support, etc. Would I come back? For the games..yes. For the food...

    Dave and Buster's is the ultimate destination for fun, food, and games. As soon as you step inside, you are immediately greeted with an energetic atmosphere and exciting games. They have an impressive selection of arcade games, really love the hungry hungry hippos. And the bar and seating area has tons of tvs to watch sports. The staff is needs some management overview as there are some working hard while others are slacking off, which is why there such a low score. As we waited almost 15 minutes for someone to greet us and take our order. We almost walked out. But the food and drinks were tasty so that made me happy. The menu has a great variety of appetizers and mouth-watering burgers to satisfying entrees and desserts. Whether you're out for a night of fun with friends or a family outing, Dave and Buster's is a guaranteed good time.

    My son and I ate at Dave and Buster's and played some games. It was a little confusing coming in; I didn't know that I had to be seated in the restaurant after checking in the front desk. But the server was gracious and accommodating. I was able to buy my game card at the table. My son and I both had buffalo chicken tenders, fries, and a soda. The food came out pretty quickly. At first, it didn't look like a good value - only 4 small tenders for 11.75. But the fries, at only 2.00 were plentiful. Unless you are ravenous, one order of fries is plenty for 2 adults. The food was tasty enough, and I liked the seasoning on the fries, but I wasn't blown away. It was what I expected. After our food was out, service was a bit slow. I think our one server had too many tables. There were a lot of employees in the restaurant area, but they may not have been serving tables. It took a while to pay the check, but the server was apologetic because she had been waiting on a sandwich for another table. The only thing I didn't like was that the receipt figured the tip based on the meal plus the game card. I don't think it was anything anyone there could control, but it made me look like a cheap tipper when I tipped 20% on the 36 dollar meal. I was happy with the game area - smallish, but easy to walk around, very clean. The games were okay value. It was easy to win enough tickets to get my son a decent prize without spending too much. For 25, you can get 150 points, which is plenty for one kid. No more expensive than any other place. The restrooms were clean and the games were well-maintained. Overall, a good experience.

    Honestly, this was a fun time. My GF and I went to play games at Activate. After 90 minutes of…read morerunning around and sweating our tails off, we decided to look for a Good Friday night Happy Hour. After searching Yelp for a bit, we were reminded of Twin Peaks. I recalled that I'd seen it from the Watterson Expressway -- and was intrigued by the "29° beer" signage. We looked at their website and found an every day happy hour that included $3.99 22oz. Peak's signature beers, $5 house margaritas, and $3.99 fried pickles, chipotle, queso and chips, billionaires bacon, and chips and salsa. And, they offer a 20% discount to military and first responders--EVERYDAY (on food; one entree per valid ID). As a nurse, I really appreciate that. On the way here my girlfriend joked that she was the best ever (she really is), because she was cool with us visiting Twin Peaks. I honestly didn't realize that it's basically a nicer Hooters. As a person that thinks Hooters is kinda trashy, I can vouch that my GF was right. The atmosphere is very welcoming, wooden walls, large bar with a live edge wood top, tons of TVs, lots of laughter and a really friendly welcoming from when you walk in. All the servers are young women wearing short shorts, sparkly belts, long socks with comfy boots and plaid shirts that showcase their chests.. this, "twin peaks". We were planning to come for 1 happy hour beer and maybe a few appetizers, but our server, Jordan, was so kind, welcoming and personable that we ended up staying 2+ hours, ordering 2 rounds of drinks, 2 appetizers and 2 entrees. She was incredibly attentive, making recommendations that didn't steer us wrong, and making us decide wishing the first 20 minutes that we'd accidentally stumbled upon a restaurant we want to frequent regularly! (And when we do.. we'll be asking for Jordan)! The service was very quick -- the food and the drinks. I got the Dirty Blonde signature beer. It's like a Blue Moon, very yummy. My GF started with the L.I.T., which we would not recommend. It was really lemon-y, and not-to-LIT. Won't order that again, but the margarita she ordered next was fantastic. The ribs were great, but the half rack only came with 5 ribs, so that was a little disappointing -- but the billionaire's bacon, one of Jordan's recommendations was awesome! Will order again! Overall, we loved the vibe, and the service, and the baseline value for the meal -- plus the first responder discount, it's a heck of a deal! It reminded us of Yard House, another chain restaurant that we love, that's not in Louisville yet. If every server is like Jordan, you're in good hands. Definitely worth a visit! Thanks for a great addition to our date night, Jordan. See you next time!

    We love this place. We come here all the time. Plenty of space to park. Great for any size party…read more Too loud for date night. We always get the queso and chips. It is so good. Had good flavor and the chips seem fresh. Nice and airy. I got the chicken fried chicken. Came out crispy and hot. The chicken was really large. Great flavors. This is a staple that we get. I will say it seems to be cooked different everytime. We will definitely be back.

The place is extremely clean and the food was really good. It was still pretty early so it was quiet, and there was only one patron at the bar and another playing the slot machine. We took a seat at the bar which had menus sitting on it so we began to look it over, and noticed so many items that sounded intriguing. Dennis, (pretty sure that was his name), was back in the kitchen cooking so it took him a few minutes to notice us which we didn't mind. We ordered two bottled beers, and I was amazed at how cold they were, I even commented on it. In my experience a lot of places do not serve "cold" beer so it was a nice surprise. We asked Dennis for some suggestions which he named off a few, BLT, BELT, Philly cheesesteak wrap, the burgers and more ..... he explained they try to cook fresh not frozen as much as possible which you can tell! The burger patties are hand rolled, and the dressings are hand sliced. He almost sold me on the Philly cheesesteak wrap but we both ordered the Caboose Burger, which is their version of a cheese burger, it came with chips or you can upgrade to waffle fries for a small up charge which we did. The burger came out piping hot, had great flavor and was delicious. The fries were also cooked perfectly, not too soggy, and not too crispy. We enjoyed one more beer while we ate, played a little Keno and then had to cash out to continue running our errands but I can honestly say I can't wait to get back and try some more of the things on the menu and simply just hang out there.
