Here is breakdown of everything I sampled and how it all faired There was fries and chicken tenders ordered for our group, piping hot and delicious, they did have beers on tap but I opted for modelo especial that came in a can. Piping cold straight from the can Game wise they had some older classics Neo-geo arcade unit offering samurai showdown classic, mk2 arcade, street fighter alpha and dual player vr shooting game forgot the name. In all since the place was rented out we didn't have to wait on any game to play, so if you are in the area and want to relive some of your childhood again this applies to folks over 40 lol that use to beg to stay in arcade malls then this is the place for you lol. Service ***** helpful and friendly staff Ambiance **** loud due to some of the games volume almost at max, definitely nostalgic for days of prehome gaming lol

I'm not sure how long this arcade has been around. But I remember playing games here as a kid when…read morewe had family trips to California. I was a big arcade junkie in my youth and happy that arcades have been making a comeback. Playland Arcade is located on the historic Santa Monica Pier right next to Pacific Park. There are more than 200 games here at this arcade. Playland Arcade also hosts a variety of events throughout the year from movies to holiday events. It is family owned and has been featured in many movies over the years. I am a big fan of classic video games and they have many of them here at Playland. I also like many of the interactive ones too. There are so many different type of games here at Playland Arcade. Skee-ball and air hockey are a couple of my longtime favorite games. I am also a fan of basketball and any arcade games with a steering wheel. There is also a Zoltar machine out front if you want your fortune told.

By far the best bowling alley in town! Great food and drinks, amazing staff and management.read more

When checking in the clerk tells me if my lane is needed I would lose it because it's becoming…read morecrowded. There were over 5 lanes empty when I checked in and when I exited. Why tell a league bowler and a season pass owner nonsense like that? If you are a even a semi serious bowler, go to a different ally. The lanes were dry. Ball reaction was inconsistent and the ally uses strings. The approach was OK, but a little too slippery for my preference. Lane 23 called 9 pin strikes more than once. My self serve kiosk failed and the servers also completely ignored the help request. I received no help at any point, but was being watched the whole time by a rep. My lane got an error and I waited for about close to 10 minutes and got zero help with that too. That same rep, who was just watching my lane and saw the error, decided to offer zero assistance. This is when I took a picture because he saw that my lane was down and I had requested help at the kiosk before it went down, but he remained standing around looking. After I left to go to the front, this guy now steps in and starts doing something at the table on the lane I was at. Made no sense because I had no drinks or food because the kiosk failed. Overall, this was the worst Bowlero experience I've had in Southern and Northern California. I recommend going down the street to the Torrance Bowlero, if you have practice games and/or a seasonal pass. This specific ally was the worst experience I've had in my one-year of bowling from any ally. I have multiple pictures to prove the claims.

I haven't been here since Lucky strike branding took over Bowlero. Now, I was told that Lucky…read morestrike in Bowlero are actually owned by the same corporation, but I'm not sure about that. They didn't change a whole lot inside. They added some lighting and they took away so many balls by adding two additional holes so you can fit a large and a medium in one ball I thought that was genius. All in all you know, it is bar food. We did get the shrimp tacos. They were as good as can be expected for you know bowling alley food. We had a beer played a game and took off so it was a good time. It's pretty crowded thank goodness they have two parking lots and it was 2 o'clock in the afternoon and it was packed so I can tell I mean not packed but like pretty full. And just on a sidenote on Sundays and Mondays, there's $20 unlimited bowling so I'm not sure on the timing but check their website and check it out 20 bucks to bowl is pretty cheap for unlimited bowling! There's also like some pizza and beer specials too

We don't have any gaming consoles in our house and even if we did...we had no idea how to have more than two people play together. We did look at other portable gaming "trucks" but strangely many didn't follow ups with me about their services. Within 45min of my inquiry Zimar contacted me and provided a quote for 2hrs of gaming. We agreed on a date, time and I immediately placed a deposit. In person, the gaming bus is sight to see. It's a massive (former) school bus with an interior unlike any school bus I ever entered; festive atmosphere (mood lights and music) along with I believe 13 screens with two seats per screen, and controls. The bus had every game my daughter and her friends could have wanted. They didn't play as many different games as the bus had which is fine by me. As host/facilitator, Zimar was personable and patient. Also, as soon as the group got into the groove of things he faded into the background. The bus had both XBox and Sony consoles...and perhaps others iterations/versions that I didn't ask about...as well as a ton of games for each console system. Ultimately, my daughter and her guests had a ton of fun...they didn't stop talking about until well as the bus had left. A couple of other notes, the bus arrived slightly early and the festivities on the bus started exactly on time...since we paid for a specific amount of time, I appreciated that detail. The bus and everything inside was super clean and well organized. If I had an area to improve; I'd say communication (with me). We agreed on a date and time and while that all happened perfectly well, I wish I would have gotten a reminder or "we're 10mins away" text. I'm happy to concede that perhaps that's just a me problem. That said, if you're not accustomed to someone keeping their word, you should say "hey texted me when you're 30mins away", which is something I didn't do. My daughter will forever remember a great experience! And for me that's all that mattered in the end.
