The Tulsa location is kind of small for a Dave & Busters but it was still really fun and they have good variety in games. Games are about 8 or 9 points each and we got lots of tickets so definitely worth it. We ate, our server kept asking us to pay before we were even to our meals.... we still had more to order and he kind of hovered over us. It made us feel like he thought we would dine and dash. The bar tender was amazing and the drinks were absolute perfection. The main thing that made us uncomfortable was the server. Everything else was good! read more

I was greeted by a young man blonde hair told him we had seven people and he explained how they were understaffed{ I he may be should work at a drive-through restaurant or a car is one at a time because he does not how know how to handle pressure. . But they had a lot of empty tables and I told him maybe we can work something out so we can we sit down so I asked him his name, he covered it up and told me I was being rude. Right away I can see he cannot handle any kind of pressure in probably shouldn't be working at that job and I asked for the manager. Since all my party wasn't there yet I asked her for a table maybe for three and they will add more to another booth I gave them our phone number so she can text him with the Bruce ready. Let's go back to that I see there's seats at the bar and I knew we had young people but we wanted to least get a couple drinks going so we are the drinks are party showed up the kids started playing I meant to senior manager he was awesome we ordered drinks and food actually for the kids to luckily outside the bar the table was empty so we had a place for the kids and the senior manager I told him or asked him hey can you make that available. We were there for a long time and the four adults were at the bar drinking our food came the kids eat, we never did receive a text to say we had available tables our bill came at the end of the night $164 angel who is fabulous I gave her $100 tip cash paid the bill, on the way out I noticed the manager from the front desk and I told her we never received our text and I felt she was a terrible manager and I explain that to her. While outside someone from inside one of the workers came and asked me to leave because I made her cry so obviously that manager does not know how to handle situation. explain that she did a terrible job but I'm sure if he goes and talks to Angel who received $100 tip he would be different outlook me and him get fistfulps afterwards everything was fine food was great drinks is great. I wish I would have got the blonde hair's kid's name that could not handle the pressure and the front desk managers name but all the other people are great including the senior manager read more

They need a set time in the evenings were children under 21 aren't aloud. It is way to small compared with other D&B's that I've been to. The food is not good either. Don't order appetizers, they are sooo small and expensive. read more

Went here since my boyfriend hasn't been to a D&B. It had been a while for me too. I haven't been to one since the 90's in Texas. Not sure why it ended up in Tulsa instead of OKC. But it made for a nice day trip. The food was great and the games were fun. I wish they had a bigger game room but it was still fun. I had "The Boss Chicken Sandwich" and Eric and the double parm chicken sandwich. He said it was the best parm sandwich he has ever had! So that's gotta be good. I wish I had room for dessert. After we ordered the waiter let us play in the game room and then came and found us when the food was ready. Nice place - very clean and cool deco. Back in the day D&B was more adult but this one is very family friendly. We will be back! read more

Our two visits there have met with the same result: Bland-tasting food and spotty service. It perfectly fits a two-star, "Meh ..I've experienced better" rating. We're not game-players, but they look like the only real attraction here. read more

I like to go to D & B to play but I don't like to eat at this place. We usually go somewhere else to eat before we go over to play games. We decided to take a few family members there and had a not so good time. It all started with the waitress. It took 20 minutes to get drinks. Another 10 to order. My strip steak was not worth the $20 I paid for it. It was very bland and the only flavor was the BBQ sauce on it. My Uncle ordered some chicken sandwiches but the bread was hard (not toasted). They were informed that it "just happens" which is ridiculous. (In a previous visit, I had ordered the philly cheesesteak sandwhich and also experienced this hard bread.) We were automatically charged gratuity even though there were only 6 paying adults after having to wait 20 minutes to settle our bill. The service was not great. We'll still go play games especially on Wednesdays (when the price of games is half off) in the afternoon (when domestic drafts are also half off). but I would definitely not recommend this place for eating. I can understand the combo meals being low quality for the price, but having ordered off the regular menu I expected more and was delivered less. read more

Let me start by saying it takes a lot for me to post a negative review. With that said... Went here to watch a football game on a Saturday. We sat in the bar area and waited 15 min with no service, so we went to the bar to order drinks ourselves. Never once saw anyone again. About an hour later I approached the manager and explained the experience. He brought me the bill, which while I wasn't trying to get it taken care of, I must admit I was surprised he didn't do anything!! He assured me when I was ready he would take care of me. NEVER SAW HIM AGAIN! Without question, I would never come back here. Needless to say I do not recommend this place. read more

I went here twice with my husband. Both times were week days between lunch and dinner time, so it felt like we were the only ones there. Didn't hear a peep of noise. We went straight to the bar eating section. It seemed like forever to get our order taken and forever to get served. The first time I ordered the mac & cheese. It was so good I ordered the same next time. I think my spouse had the ribs the first time and meatballs the second time. We were told about the arcade area but wasn't interested in exploring it. The arcade games area would be perfect for couples with kids. The kids could be sent to play games while the adults finish their meal in peace. Kids tend to finish their food faster or get full and don't want to finish. If kids know there are games to play they might just be wanting to do that instead of eating. read more

The foods not great and unless you like your bar scene looking like an upscale Chucky E Cheese then don't bother. They really need to set a "adults only" time. read more

So maybe I'm spoiled by newer D&B locations, but this place was pretty rough. First of all, it's not very big. At all. They have an ok (but definitely not good) selection of games, but it was so crowded that it felt like everyone was on top of each other. The area between the games can't fit more than one person, so you end up constantly stepping to the side to let people through and bumping into children. It was a Saturday night so I shouldn't be surprised at the crowd. However, I can't help but think that if it was the size of the other D&B locations I've been to, the crowds would have been a lot more manageable. A little more space and it at least wouldn't have given me flashbacks of trying to navigate the halls of my overpopulated high school between periods. We ate too, which was pretty dreadful. I sat at the bar and, while the bartenders were fine, they were spread very thin. The food was really bad too. I got nachos, which came out cold and with some awful cheese on them. We also split some grilled cheese stick appetizer they had. Since it was just sourdough and a bunch of cheese it tasted good, but the underside was super soggy. I'll go ahead and give it two stars because the games all seemed to work. Plus, my expectations shouldn't be that high because like another reviewer aptly said, this is basically an Applebee's with an arcade attached. There's a brand new Main Event in town that I'll probably give a try next. Because, you know, eliminating arcades completely from my immature 35 year old ass is not an option. read more

I LOVE D&B...in MO that is. The one here is small...the food is "meh" nothing special- neither are the drinks- which I believe are too pricey. The trivia game is so much fun! So I guess if you're bored and wanting to try it...go for it...but unless you are really into playing crappy games then you most likely wont be satisfied. read more

I used to visit the one in Dallas, TX, when family in Tulsa took family in Dallas to their D&B. I was expecting a completely different environment and multi-level gambling..I mean arcade experience. But this felt like a smaller, more expensive, 'Fun House' (the old arcade and mini-golf place that I have no idea if it s still open). It completely lacked the tone and had half the selection of activities of the D&B in Dallas. I literally only go to this one when I am invited for a birthday party. read more

My 9 yr old and I frequent this location and have found it to be clean, full of smiling & friendly/helpful staff and decent food. Weds are great as all games are half priced and they offer military discounts, which I appreciate greatly. Thank you! Jordan is our favorite manager! Any issues we have had were immediately remedied by the general manager Eric. read more

And 1 star is way to many. Was told wait was 1 hour for party of 10. Finally seated after 1hr 40 min... Took another 30 mins for drinks... Now been here 2 hr 30 min and no god yet... Not even appetizer ... read more

Dave & Buster's Tulsa - This is where my drink should be.. - American Near Me - Tulsa, Oklahoma

Food was fine, but the absolutely terrible hostess staff ruined the entire experience. Rude beyond belief. Asked if we could have a booth and for no good reason was flat out told no. (Restaurant was totally empty except for 2 tables.) Told her we'd really appreciate a booth and she again said no. Another member of our party approached her and told her we really would like to have a booth and she threw our menus and silverware on a booth in a sloppy pile, huffed her way past us and mumbled "tables ready" without even leading us to our seats. Disgraceful. If this place prides itself as a family friendly restaurant, here's a bit of advice. Hire new staff who can interact with the public with a bit of decorum. read more

I am a regular customer at this Dave and Busters. Unfortunately, they continue to disappoint. Most places treat regular customers with respect because they know that 80% of sales are coming from their top 20% of regular customers...not here!From the attitude with Amber on a regular basis in the gaming area to the dysfunctional bar/restaurant, this place tries my patience. When dining last night around 10:30, My party and I had to seat ourselves, place our own beverage orders and place our own food orders all while the waiter came to my table only once the entire meal. We even had to go up to the counter to pay this bill. I didn't realize that this D and B was run as a fast food restaurant. I also wonder if this is the Dave and Busters standard of service. If you want good customer service, go someplace else because you won't find it here. read more

we went with our 15 & 21 year old for the family new year early party and had a great time. 12-31-22 4pm to 7pm

I have been here a few times since I have moved to Tulsa. This location in particular is OK, but the ones I have been to previously in other cities are SO much better. Than again, you can't expect much from Tulsa. I first went here with my boyfriend on a Wednesday evening, we decided to have a fun date night and when we got there was pleased to see that Wednesday is also half price game night. This just means that all the games you would normally play you only have to use half the amount of credits, which means you get to do more with less! Who doesn't love that?! We also got food while we were there as well. I got the bar sliders and my boyfriend got a standard burger that had every topping in the world on it. It was a fair price, but when we ordered we said we wanted a side of fries which it did come with already, so all the waiter had to do was confirm. Nope, that is not what happened. We ended up getting double the fries and than charged for it! Aside from that small incident, I had a good time. It wasn't the best Dave and Busters in Tulsa, but since there isn't much to do in this town anyways we will probabaly be back. The most recent time I went was on a Saturday with some friends. It was not as crowded as you thought it would be, but overall it was an OK time. I have also been here before when my company rents out the whole place and has food catered. If you ever get a chance to do that, it is the best time. read more

See all

Great fun in the arcade. Great service. Food so-so. We had a good time at my son's birthday party. The grandkids loved the games and collecting tickets to cash in on the "prizes". We had a private room and had a very attentive waiter. Same concept as ChuckECheese, but 1000 times better. Full Bar, decent food, games are more adult oriented. Go for the fun. read more

First time eating here. My son insisted we come here to eat, because he's seen the commercials and his curiosity took him when he seen the sign on our way to CTCA. I had the street tacos, which were delicious! This place is definitely better than Chuck E. Cheese's as far as games, but be sure your pockets are deep! This place is pricey! read more

Poor service! Was told an hour wait at 3:45 finally was seated after 5:00 placed order right away and tAbles seated after us were getting their food or nearly done eating. Drinks are weak and expensive. We finally walked out without eating. read more

Unimpressed. Scaffolding covering the entrance without any signs assuring the restaurant was still open or that it was safe to weave your way under the spans. The hostesses were who sat us were friendly and fun. Unfortunately that was the highlight of our visit. Service was slow, no that would be an insult to slow and it was early on a Thursday with nary a soul in the place. We liked the spinach artichoke dip, but having a serving spoon to help share would have made sense to be standard. The makers mark burger beckoned with promise, but missed its...mark. overly sweet sauce did nothing to mask what tasted freezer burned. People who play video games are obviously the only reason this place stays afloat. I'm not a game player and only visited because I could easily walk from my hotel. I guess I shouldn't have expected anything but arcade rated food at an arcade. read more

I wish I could give two separate reviews. 5 stars for the arcade and the manager's handling of a problem with one of the games. 1 star for the front counter employee... can you say ATT-IIII-TUDE? We thought we would stop playing for awhile and gwe some food so we asked for a table. We were told 10 minute wait - I asked why when there were at least 6-8 tables in view that were empty. He said that they were obviously not cleaned off. Well i must have hacked him off because it has been 3 days and I never got my text for my table - we decided after 45 minutes to go to Chick-Fil-a and on way out he was seating people who just came in. Sad for manager read more

If you have never been to D&B, don't let your first experience in the Tulsa venue be your last in any of them. Wait until you get to the one in Marietta, GA. The only redeeming quality to the d&b in Tulsa was the food. It was good. A bit over-priced for what you get but hot and fresh. The wait staff was pleasant but get offended easy if you don't say their name which, admittedly, is on their name tag somewhere but for some who forgot their glasses, can be hard to read what with everything else that's on their name tags. You will get corrected in a heartbeat if you use "miss" or "excuse me, uh, xxx........" ("My name is XXXXX!") The game area was like going into the back of a convenience store - everything packed in together and cramped. Just an awful example of the d&b I've come to love. The games were tired and looked like they had gotten them off a folded-up carnival. No virtual reality games, no theater gaming, no billiards or snooker, no golf pro games - no games really that made you want to play or stay. No one at the door to welcome you in. Large groups crammed together in the dining room. Not many little kids in there - as a matter of fact, I only saw one. The rest were older adults or teenagers. I dare say this is not a place that corporations take their employees for team-building or have meetings. The joint was incredibly loud ! read more

I went there on a Tuesday and had an AMAZING server named Jessie. She was so attentive to me and my family. She even suggested some great new drinks! We plan on coming back and asking for her services again, my kids loved her... She even played a game with them so my husband and I could enjoy some one on one time. Thank you Jessie!!! read more

This place is fun. I'm not sure why it doesn't have good reviews. The food is actually really good. Our favorites are the fried chicken dish with the biscuits, the steak salad, the philly cheese steak, the sliders with the ribs combo and the pretzel dogs. We really like to come on Wednesday for half priced games. It's hardly ever crowded, the service is good and the managers check on you all the time. The game room is always getting new games too. The drinks aren't very strong at all though and the selections for prizes aren't that good. I wish they had more choices. It's mostly D.C. or Dave and Busters themed stuff but the new Halo game is fun. read more

I assume they hire 16 yr olds b/c: (A) they can pay them minimum wage; or (much!) less if they're a server. Or (B) they're hoping to match the intellect of 10 yr old kids or 35 yr old losers who stumble in here for video games & stuffed animals. My mom reserved here for my son's belated 10th birthday (we're from the SF Bay Area, here visiting grandparents.) We were part of a group of about 20 people. As my mom was trying to explain to 16 yr old # 1 who we were & why we were there, 16 yr old # 2 pimp-rolled up to me (I was flanked by my 2 kids, including the birthday boy) and demanded to know if we "wanted to eat here or WHAT?" I would have slapped the little ditz, but I understand that Oklahomans now send their kids to school only 4 days a week and are PROUD of it. So what could I expect? I didn't witness any fistfights btwn pregnant welfare moms here, unlike visits to Chuck E. Cheese, so they get the 2nd star. read more

I dislike that we have to pay for our food and tip prior to eating and being served. So I tipped the minimum ($5) the app suggested once I paid for my food, and intended on tipping more in cash if the service was good. We only saw our waitress Christina once the entire dinner, which was dropping off our food. we never received a refill at all. So I paid close to $4 just to have one cup of ice with a dribble of sprite, which was gone by the time I got my food. Our server had a mask on but pulled it under her chin, covid is here so I don't to much care obviously as I'm going out to eat in a pandemic but what's the point if you're not properly going to wear the mask. I had to go to the hostess desk to ask for to go boxes. I witnessed multiple servers hanging out on there phones while we were dining. I downloaded the game card app after purchasing our first round of games and got the offer about $15 for $15 and in the details it specifically says it can be redeemed in store OR in app but the new hostesses (different from the one that was there when we arrived) said no I have to do it in the app. I only had cash and wanted to redeem in person like the offer said we could. I asked a second person and she was extremely rude preoccupied on her phone as well in the prize area. I asked "can I asked you a question please? , she literally replied "what?" Like I was bugging her. Won't be dinning again and wish I could have my tip returned as there was no service given at all. Now for the food, it was extremely mediocre! I ordered my daughter the chicken kids meal and I order myself chicken strips and fries. The strips were the same size as the nuggets from the kids meal. Portion to price is terrible. Taste to price is terrible as well. My only positive part of eating here was the initial hostess that was there when we arrived she was a sweet heart! The rest not so much. read more

The most notable thing about Dave & Buster's is the surprisingly good food. I've never had a bad meal here. Totally addicted to the pretzel dogs. Decent selection of games that you won't find anywhere else. Good, clean atmosphere. On the negative, the place can be a chore to find. The staff has often come off as aloof. This has happened many times. Not the biggest deal in the world to me as I'm more focused on my company. As long as the order is right and timely, it's fine I guess. Other than the location and the "too cool for school" staff, this is a great place. Great food, nice atmosphere, never really overcrowded. Great for dates that want a fun, but low-key night out. read more

Glad they are trying during this pandemic but they are missing the mark. Service was slow/non existent, some workers weren't very helpful/nice when we asked questions, (we haven't been since they switched over to chip system on the cards and we didn't know to scan our card to collect tickets, lost out on probably at least 300) food was ok but very limited menu. The games that were open were fun tho. Probably won't be back for a while, too expensive for what we experienced. read more

Our company went here for a company party, about 25 of us. The food was not very good and after having two drinks in an hour they told us we couldn't have any more to drink....what...We were in our own room and while we were being loud (cause it was a party), we were not being boisterous. There are better places to go. read more

Menu is limited. Staff is rude. Food is awful. Dave and busters has gone downhill. They need to step up cleaning and staff/customer engagement protocols read more

Food wasn't any good and one in our party's Mac and cheese didn't show up til after everybody ate. The manager brought it out and after he was quizzed he said it was it was the waitress fault and she admitted it. Well that makes it better how oft Ian a night do you throw your employees under the bus. All we wanted to hear was he would make it right. read more

We went here for a work party and had a great time! I would give it 5 stars but unfortunately one of the managers was a little bit rude when we had to make a change to our order. He made it clear that it upset him by his sarcasm and body language... I still think it's a great place to go and have fun but I don't know if I'd like to deal with that manager again so maybe when he's not there... read more

We are from out of town we came to have dinner with friends this is our first time at this establishment. I really like the fact that you can have drinks and play games. (there is a big kid in all of us) beer tube what?? Yes thank you we will take the 100oz The ribs are oh my goodness delicious! The meat just fell off the bones it was so good a day later and I'm still thinking about the ribs at this place. I will definitely be coming back we had so much fun!! read more

The drinks are really good. I didn't know it was so family friendly which lost a star for me. I didn't want little screaming kids or I would have seen an animatronic mouse. Still good food and fun. read more

So, I'm looking through the drink menu...and YES I find the perfect SHOT! (Blue curacao, Barcardi rum, triple sec, and a fruit juice medley,,or something like that.) The bartender comes over and I point to the drink on the menu. "I want this...please!" ~Mouth salivating~ Do you know what she tells me? " Oops, this is the old menu." She opens the binder and removes the page with my drink on it! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Ooops? Wtf?~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ MaNaGeR! Please don't play with my alcohol. There must be some recipe you can follow! ....and she does (follow the recipe) eat,**DRINK**, and play! read more

The review i left previously was for the one in Dallas. My fiancé and i came to the one here in Tulsa for our birthday and as per par it's amazing. We were greeted by Travis,he explained everything but didnt make us feel stupid for not knowing whats going on here. He got a great personality and the atmosphere here is so awesome. We are definitely coming back soon to enjoy more fun and play. read more

Really, really terrible wait times for food-with absolutely no apologies given. Sweet potato fries are great. Burgers are good. Mixed drinks have plenty of alcohol but taste like week-old beer. Games will occasionally malfunction and eat tokens and in the prize redemption room, service is beyond lacking. We were told nothing was available for my daughter's 30 remaining tickets (there were items available) and that we could leave it as credit on the card. All in all, a disappointing waste of money. I won't plan to go back. read more

More on the expensive side, smaller than most Dave and Busters, food was below average, people were annoying, "drinks" were average, and it takes forever to get food BUT my wife and I left happy even though my wallet was sad :,( read more
