Great Spot for fun, food, and shopping! This place has it all beside it being inside a huge outdoor mall with some really cool decor. You'll be happy when you stop here its a huge Dave and Busters. You can Bowl and play pool here. They have multiple bars also. They even have a sports center! Cool! You really have all you need here. Games, food, Sports, and Drinks. The prices are reasonable. They do have some kind of happy hour!!!! I'll be back soon. Until next time. read more

Good spot. We arrived right when they opened. Ian was able to enjoy his games without having to worry about crowds. Games were well spaced out, there were hand sanitizers, Kleenex wipes, paper towels available. Ian loved the virtual reality Star Wars game *Laughs* read more

Went on a Thursday due to the 50% off food deal on my app. Service was rough at first. We started downstairs as I made a reservation but there was only a bartender who didn't even acknowledge us. After 5 mins we went upstairs and, again, waited 5mins before being acknowledged. There were 3 bartenders just standing at the bar talking which seemed rude. We were finally greeted by our server, Dyllon, and he was FABULOUS, really changed around our mood as he was super attentive. He needs a raise as it seems he was the only person working! Food was okay....we didn't expect anything spectacular though. I don't recommend the Hawaiian sandwich as it's just a single chicken tender on the sandwich. Flavor was decent, but it was basically all bread with barely any chicken. Not sure why they don't use a full breaded chicken breast versus the tender. The games were so much fun but DANG have they increased the cost per game! Since when did it increase from 2/3 credits to 7-10?? Makes it impossible to buy enough chips to last a few hours without breaking the bank. read more

Had mine and my son's birthday party there and I will never go there again. They never gave us enough plates/silverware despite asking several times. We finally got some at the end of our meal. We ordered nachos, came with no cheese. When asking for nachos with cheese they finally sent out a side of cheese as we were done and leaving. They never picked up any of the plates off the table, I cleaned the table myself so we could have room to eat cake. Waitress was never around, we waited on them the whole time. Games were severely overpriced. Drinks were weak as well. There are so many better places to go I will never waste my time or money here again. read more

Although I love Dave & Busters I was EXTREMELY upset by how one of the staff members spoke to me TWICE with the most rude, condescending and unprofessional - especially working somewhere where there are CHILDREN! Her name was JENNY. My two small children brought up their toys to get in exchange for tickets, we were over by a little bit and she was so nasty about it, I kindly responded "the unicorn squishy didn't have a tag with amount of tickets." Which only about 2/3 of the items had tags displaying how many tickets they were. Then disappointed of our 50 short tickets my 6 year old went to get another item for less tickets. So of course we get the same mean lady who continues with her sh*tty attitude and we have now extra tickets left which I knew and said "that's ok we'll keep them on the card for next time, then she snaps back with "you HAVE the card." And turns her back to us and starts organizing items on the counter. Wow, just wow. No thank you, no bye, no have a nice day. This lady needs a serious attitude adjustment and should NOT be allowed to work where there are children present. I would have given 0 stars but since the food was decent and the kids had a blast with every game in working condition and other staff who was pleasant & helpful then I'll keep it at 3 stars. read more

Oh man I'm wiped out from playing video games lol. Bought a Groupon for unlimited video games for like $20 for 2 people. They also have other deals too. Great place for kids and adults. I recommend playing halo last cause it's the best and after u play halo all the other video games suck lol. Halo has awesome picture too! also u can play with 4 people in this game. There's also bowling here and pool if your interested. I think we did one thing at a time. Cause it can get pricey. Came one time for bowling, another time for pool and now arcade/video games. They also have a bar. They also have an elevator which helps. Yes this is a 2 story building. Arcade & pool upstairs. Bowling downstairs. read more

I bring my kiddos here often and it's always busy but service is always personalized and great. The kids chicken tenders and pizza are great options for kiddos and the games are so fun. Julius the manager was absolutely fabulous helping us and Ashton as our server was so attentive and would recommend. It was great coming during the day as well. read more

Worst experience I've had in my life. Never coming back to this establishment again. Worst customer service I've ever seen and a horrible staff. read more

Our visit was on a Monday night. I purchased a Groupon for unlimited game play for two - but it had limitations. Which was fine. We were early enough for happy hour and had a couple drinks at the downstairs bar while waiting for our friends. The place is huge. It can accommodate many large groups and parties at once. Chasing down a runaway 2 year old, I found a small bowling alley in the back too. The first level bar is huge, and great for dining while watching a game. This would be a choice location if I had preteens running around playing games upstairs. The food came out fast and fresh - there really was no one there. The bartender was bored, friendly and chatty. He made some great drinks and recommendations when I was looking for something less sweet, than what was offered on the menu. Upstairs is the video game floor. Take the stairs or take the elevator but make a note of where the exit is when you walk up because it's easy to get lost up there. There are more meeting and event spaces upstairs too, with high top tables and presentation equipment. The room seemed out of place for the venue but good to keep in mind next time in the market for such a space. The video games were fine. What you would expect. You don't have access to the premium Marvel games, ticket games and VR experience on the Groupon deal. The children with us were all under 5, so what we had was just fine. They had a blast. My husband and I stayed behind to beat the tomb raider game when the kids went home. This was our last night in town and wanted a little more fun. My favorite Star Wars game was down for repair. I stole a bit of my sister's grilled salmon and it was delicious. Trying to get kids to eat, in the face of a room full of video games is like trying to hold back flood waters with a wave and a promise. If you want your kids to eat, stay downstairs or have them eat before they leave. The wait staff will leave your table alone for a long time. It helps to acknowledge them and have a chat. Easy location and fun times. read more

This place serves the purpose for which it exists. Lot of fun games and good enough options to eat. Games cost a bit but I took $100 card and it was economical when you see how much you can play. Best part was it was surprise birthday party for my wife and crew there supported in bringing cake and other things from outside as well. Servers offered to take our photos as well. Going there alone or as couple is costly but going in group of 6+ is worth it. read more

My friend wanted to watch the Canelo Álvarez boxing match / prizefight and Dave & Buster's was the only place we could find to see it without paying a fee. And what a great choice. There was plenty of seating and the match was on many screens. We sat at the bar and service was great. I haven't been there in a while and was pleasantly surprised to see they've upgraded their menu. I'll be back to try other food. read more

First time at this location. We were able to get seated quickly. The place was busy but we managed to get some drinks and some food. There was a fight one which seemed to bring a crowd. The game room is on the second floor. There were not as many games as I thought they would have. There's more seating for dinners. The restrooms were kind of gross. The place was very busy for a Saturday night which was good. I'm sure we will be back again. read more

This was my first visit to a Dave and Busters, and it was really pretty good. Waitress Courtney came over to take our drink order and then came back again, to take our food order. Food came quickly and it was pretty good, reminded me of maybe chuckie cheese food. Courtney was very attenuative and very friendly. A very nice staff person. Very loud and noisy here, not complaining, that's what it is!! I would suggest it to anyone that wants to go and get a little bit crazy!! Did notice lots of different kinds of cocktails. Fun Place, try it. read more

Watch out if eating at Dave and Busters when you get the bill. The 18% tip has already been added. I did't catch it and my 20% tip turned into a 35% tip. I will never go to a Dave and Busters again. Food was fine but I feel that I was cheated read more

We made reservations for 12 for an adult's birthday party. Staff couldn't have been nicer. Erika (and I do hope I got her name right) took great care of us. They held our table while we went upstairs and played games. They kept the birthday cake in the fridge for us so it wouldn't melt. Food was really good and the selection was great. We had a GF in our party and she was so pleased with the options. I would recommend for large parties. read more

Love D&B usually - a great date spot for me and my girlfriend to get away from the stress of studying... usually. HOWEVER there's a terrible team running this branch. Staff who can't handle cash are out on registers, busy areas are understaffed, and you can regularly see employees lounging around and drinking instead of working. If you have a coupon? Don't bother as the staff either can't process it without a manager and you'll have to wait 30+ minutes to use it, or they'll claim it's fake for no reason other than an excuse to not work. If I could ask for my money back I would! Didn't try the food but saw one kit throw up after like 3 bites behind me so wouldn't trust that in the future read more

Here for a 4 hockey team banquet. No bar service in the banquet room, nor any servers for bar table service. However there were five employees standing behind the bar in the banquet room DOING NOTHING!! Main bar was completely overwhelmed with one bartender and 15 waiting customers. Poor planning, knowing a banquet of 80 hockey people might need a drink. When it is finally my turn to order, I figured I should get a double tall rum and coke because who knows when I will get another. The bartender didn't tell me that they don't serve doubles. Mixed the drink from warm canned coke, interesting since they seem to have a soda gun. Melted all the ice instantly so watered down. First drink tasted like it had absolutely no alcohol in it at all and I finished it while waiting at the bar with my friend who ordered several drinks. At least the second one tasted like it had some alcohol in it, however I was advised that they put three quarters of an ounce in every drink and they don't do doubles. Why didn't he tell me this before he made my drink? $8.99 for a single rum and coke, and quite weak. I might have ordered wine if I had known. Pfft. Banquet food was decent. Fresh salad with only ranch dressing. Chicken or beef sandwiches, Mac and cheese and fries. As a GF gal, I ate salad and meat. No complaints from hockey kids on food. Six employees standing around behind the bar only filling soft drinks to leave on the counter. Watching the hockey awards. Dirty plates everywhere. Hmmm. read more

A very large amount of games were either out of order/broken or would take your tokens and not start the game. It's very dirty, one container of sanitizing wipes for the entire upstairs. This place is completely overpriced for what is being offered. $3 activation fee for every card purchased, that's not mentioned until right before they charge your card. We were going to add the virtual reality for $6 but it would have been an additional $3 for activation on a card that's already been activated, are you kidding?! read more

I brought my special-needs niece there to play games and have lunch. She had a blast! We ate upstairs by all the games. Our server was super sweet and very patient with her. She loved her pizza and my salad was yummy! read more

The waiters are so uninterested in what you want and aren't willing to sub with any flexibility of the combo platters -which are terrible in pairing to begin with. Don't get a blended drink. They're all ice and you can't even drink it through a straw-not even an hour later when it was melting. We got instead of a combo platter, boneless wings and the spinach dip. Both were decent. Like everyone says the food here is honestly worse than Denny's. I don't get it. For the price and no good deals, especially for being Father's Day.... I didn't mind the açaí drink. It was pretty cool instead of my frozen ice cubed mango daiquiri. The three frozen ice cubes took up my whole drink. I honestly don't think they use liquor here. read more

Fun atmosphere! The place was overrun with kids at 7p in a Friday though. Took us about an hour to spend $30 as adults and the games were fun but there was only 1 air hockey table which was constantly being used so we had to wait forever to play that and only two skeeball machines and one was out of order. That being said, it was still fun! read more

Barrio Queen failed us tonight for a "Pre-games" dinner so we just went straight to the games. We usually don't eat at Dave and Buster's, outside of birthday parties, but tonight I am glad we did. Our server Hannah didn't only make us feel like appreciated guests, she made us feel like family. Our drink order was taken within about 1 minute of being sat and amazing food was on the table shortly after. The drinks were kept very full the entire meal. Excellent food and exceptional hospitality. Thank you so much Hannah. read more

Well. I tried to check in and their server was down and I wasn't able to access my internet service due to whatever blocking it. We arrived around 11:30p and no one was at the hostess stand downstairs to seat us. We searched around, went upstairs, came back down and asked a gal at the counter. She sat us down. We waited around 10 min to order meanwhile, people seated after us had ordered. It took my husband flashing down the hostess to get service. Once we ordered, it didn't take very long to receive our food. It was mediocre. I ordered the Philly Cheesesteak Sliders with chicken tenders and my husband ordered the buffalo sandwich. My sliders definitely could have used more meat. The tenders didn't have much flavor. My husband said his sandwich was ok. Nothing to die for. We won't return for food. There's too many options around the area. We can eat elsewhere and return for games after. read more

This location has been an amazing support for the Scottsdale YMCA Teen program. Yamen and the staff are amazing community partners! Games and food are also great! Love this location! read more

I am really not the best person to review this place. I like good food and they have a good selection. There was 6 people in our party. They do reservation but the time we was to be there, there was none available. Basically we just went to an area that had open tables and sat done. Our waiter asked if he could reseat us. Which was fine with us. After looking for a different place to set us he said where we was would be just fine. The server was extremely attentive. Checked on us quite often but not intrusive. Everyone was satisfied with their meal. Most people don't go for the food alone. My son and his sons go for mainly the games. I don't play games. The reason I am not the best person to review. My son and his family had a blast. This made me feel like it was a win for us all. They would probably give 5 stars. The good about the games is there seems to be plenty for all. No waiting for a game to open. read more

We went on a Saturday night. It was crazy busy and the place was just filthy. We sat upstairs in the arcade and service was quick but food was meh. Nothing great. We had the jumbo pretzel, club sandwich and salad. The games were fun but the points go fast. It really wasn't worth the time or expense. Probably won't go back. Plenty of other fun family places to go with the family in Scottsdale. read more

Food review. Game selection is good. I had an embarrassment of a "kale and arugula Caesar salad with added chicken" no kale, no arugula. Only dead brown edged romaine and rotted tomatoes with half a chicken breast. Shame on the food manager for standing by and allowing this product to hit the table for almost $17. read more

Bowling here from now on! Clean seating area, padded seats! Nice modern shoes that don't look a million years old, decent food, and doesn't cost an arm and a leg to bowl! We had a blast. read more

Rude staff, don't even bother. We came with 3 kids and they wouldn't accept a FEDERAL LEGAL ID as the original was left at home. We are clearly legal of age and they wanted to act like children about it. Why make electronic IDs LEGAL in the state of AZ when places won't accept it? Machines also took points that didn't work. Wouldn't recommend this location read more

Atmosphere 5 stars Food 3 stars Service 5 stars Entertainment 5 stars We took our boys here on a Saturday night for food and fun. Buy some cards to load up and then everyone in the family can have fun! I gave the food three stars because I was disappointed. My sweet Hawaiian chicken sammie was not what I was expecting and the fries did not seem fresh at all. Service was perfect and we will be back for food fun and family time. Oh and make sure to try the 3D attraction!! We did the terminator and the dragon one. Both were so life like. Very cool and worth the 6 bucks. read more

It was okay....there were some good games and some ripoffs but all in all it was fun. This D&B's had a bowling alley which was pretty awesome! It was pretty slow for a Thursday night I though! There was also a section for dinning on the lower level but seating through out and I counted 4 bars!! Okay so here is the plot twist....this place is meant for fun excitement and even with all the lights noise AND DRINKS is was super stale....like even the staff looked bored...lol also there show be a server on the floor so people don't have to stop playing to walk to the bar...just a suggestion! read more

Paul!! Paul was our bartender and Paul introduced himself. Asked how we were and meant that he wanted to know. Let us know where he'd be if we needed him and took care of us in the most amazing way. Paul went to customer service academy and it was a very pleasant Civil War watching experience. Thanks Paul! read more

Came to cheer on our team! Dave and Busters open at 10:00 on Sundays to accommodate the 10:00 games! They even opened at 9:50, so we wouldn't miss kick off! Great menu, even at the early hours, chicken and waffles, hot coffee, and tea. They have Pro Game Days every Thursday, Sunday and Monday which includes a great $5 menu all day long, including $5 Bloody Mary's, Helluva old fashions, and $4 beer. Service was incredible, honestly, so accommodating, friendly, very attentive! We felt like we were a guest in someone's home! (So weird for a huge sports bar!) Fun way to watch your favorite team with over 20 TV's in the sports bar alone! Plus corn hole to entertain you durning halftime. Kudos to the management at the desert ridge location, they obviously have trained the employees, to treat each guest with superb service! Raven you rock! read more

We come here often to bring our son to play the dance games. It's very clean, including restrooms and it's conveniently located. Easy off and on to the highway and better service than the one at Westgate. Jeremiah is the best and most attentive bartender ever with the best personality! We come here instead of Westgate because his service is so much better! Thank you Jeremiah for the laughs, smile and service! Max and Maryjo Sirstins read more

We were greeted by Alex who was prompt and professional upon welcoming us and taking our order at the bar upstairs. Dustin offered excellent support and was quick and dutiful in his tasks. I was impressed by both young men and their work ethic. Yamen quickly jumped in and surprised me with his management skills. He hopped in and ensured all of the guests were well taken care of. I respect a leader that leads by example, and that is what I saw. I don't often leave reviews, but I felt compelled too because of the excellent service I received tonight. Holiday weekends are always busy, but never for a second did I feel ignored or unimportant under the care and company of these individuals. I am impressed, happy, and glad my lady and I came out tonight. Alex, Dustin, and Yamen are very hard workers and I really appreciate everything they did for my lady and I tonight. Dave and Busters is lucky to have such fine gentlemen apart of their team. Kudos and thank you. read more

Overall this place was pretty good!! We had a lot of fun and they always update their games to stay current!! The food is good. not great, but who goes here for the food anyways!! Great place to grab a beer and play some fun games! The I would say it's typical bar food. The normal burgers I was not a fan of. Definitely a pass. The wings have great flavor but not very much meat. But the small sliders are actually super good! Major bonus with the Hawaiian buns! They are sweet little droplets of heaven! All in all, I love Dave and busters. it's like a giant playpen with food and alcohol for adults. Yes it can be pretty pricey but sometimes you just need to let out your childish energy read more

Always fun time here. My kid love bowling here. There is good amount of arcade games here and food and beverage selection is good.

Fun place to entertain the grandkids. Tons of game choices almost all machines were in working order. Old school games as well as the most current. We didn't order any food or drinks so not sure about those features. Staff not super friendly like you would expect at a family entertainment area. read more
