    Store owner (I believe) was soooo friendly and amazing !! He taught us how to play specific games that weren't claw machines and overall the vibes were fun! Shop had amazing music and good clean vibes and the prices were super affordable! I kept wanting to play! 1 Token per play would come back here!

    Claw machine arcade, near the Riverside Plaza. This is more than just "win what you can grab in a machine." Galaxy Claw both let's you trade prizes from specific machines AND there are prizes you can trade up to. Specific Machines: If you grab ANYTHING from a specific game, ask the staff here if you want to trade for another plush from that game. This means you should always try to get the easiest plushie in a machine, not the one you want most. Prize Counter: You can trade plushies you get from different machines, for larger prizes from the prize counter. If you want a bigger prize, you've got work to do! PROPS: It's clear the staff cares about this location, and wants to give people a great experience SLOPS: It's kind of a strange location to find, but once you know where it is it's not hard to get to

    We drove all the way from South LA to come visit this place. Smaller than we had anticipated, but the kids had fun. Great business owner, very knowledgeable, gave us pointers on how to use to the claw machines, and was very accommodating with swapping out plushies for different ones that were won from the same machine. A good hour to spend for some quality fun especially if you have kids.

    We visited Galaxy Claw Riverside in February 2025 and had a wonderful time! Price: 1 token per play. Affordable token packages and they also have monthly plan Claw Machines: they have a variety of keychain and medium size claw machines. They also have different games like the spinning clip and 10 second game. I felt the claw strength was very fair and the claws have grips, which is a good sign. Prize Trade Wall: Wide selection of plushies, blind boxes, anime figures, PopMart, Labubu and I think I even saw a Nintendo Switch 2! You can trade you plushie in for points and you can save up over multiple visits Customer Service: Their staff and owners are very friendly! They walk around and restock the machine and customers if they need help. If there's a certain prize that you're trying to win, you can ask them to help reposition the plushie I did a $20 challenge (22 tokens) and was able to win 8 plushies, which is way above average compared to other claw arcades in California! Definitely check out Galaxy Claw Riverside if you're ever in the area!

    Cute and perfect little date idea! We got finished eating frozen yogurt across the street and wanted to have a cute activity!!! Once you come in you get greeted by Jesus who was the owner of the place! Tokens were cheap and one coin was per machine and owner can switch the prizes as long as it's from the same machine! The plushy wall was adorable and really perfect for a picture! It was a small claw machine place but the vibes and prizes were worth it! Owner gave us tips and tricks on how to make it easier for us! They have labubus for trading, skull pandas, and bigger and cute prizes! Will come back again when I'm out here again!

    This place is every kid's dream and honestly... kind of fun for adults too If your kids love claw machines, this arcade is a total win. The machines are bright, clean, and actually winnable (which is huge). Tons of cute plushies, toys, and prizes that kids genuinely get excited about not the usual sad keychains you see elsewhere. The atmosphere is super kid-friendly: clean floors, good lighting, and a safe layout where parents can relax while the kids play. Staff were friendly and helpful, especially when little hands needed help redeeming prizes or figuring out machines. We loved that kids could walk away feeling successful instead of frustrated. Perfect spot for: Birthday outings Weekend fun Quick reward after a good week We'll definitely be back. Just be warned: your kids will NOT want to leave

    We had such a fun experience at Galaxy Claw. The machines are FILLED with so many different prize options like Pokémon, Disney, one piece, Sanrio, etc. the machines are extremely fair and easy to win. Go for a fun afternoon. Highly recommend and will be back.

    10/10 experience. Staff were extremely kind and helpful! Explained everything while even to where my daughter could understand. Definitely will be back

    Great place to go on a date or just hang out. The employees are very friendly. It's clean with a fun vibe.

    Had a great time tonight with my gf! Jèsus was very kind. I bought $5 worth of tokens and he kindly gave another to tokens when he saw we only won 2. Also let us exchange our prizes for ones we liked. Easy games to win! Definitely coming back

    My little one having a blast at Galaxy Claw! She's definitely a regular customer!

    This is the BEST claw machine arcade around. The owner is so nice and attentive to his customers. He accommodates smaller children by providing a stool so they can play any machine. He also provides vouchers so whatever prizes you win can be traded in that night for a ticket. That ticket can be used the next time you come in so you can work up to the bigger prizes. Overall, it's a great place to have some fun with your family & friends! Would definitely recommend!!!

We were greeted by energetic staff who asked us which package we would take. Naturally the 24 hole golf is included and decided on the escape room option. There are two options, one alien themed and the other pirate themed. We went with the Alien 51 themed one since the pirate one was in use. After a short video we had a 10 minute time limit to solve the puzzle. It's quite straight forward but quite a thinker at times. We were able to solve it with little time to spare. Me and my friend had a great time figuring it out and will gladly return to see the other offering down the line. Onto the main course, the mini golf! The courses are laid out in a way that guides you along each hour in order. Each course has its own theme ranging from a Dia de Los Muertos themed one to one with the great wall of China serving as a ramp. It was definitely a vibe and we had a blast. Some holes scale up in difficulty while others are quite straight forward. Overall this was a great time and excellent way to spend time together with a friend.

Hence, it's easy to drop $70 and only end up with ONE small Kaito plushie from the Round One x Vocaloid collaboration. I realize not all are ready to commit to splurging, but get ready. Especially if you have KIDS! There's a feast to the recreational senses when you enter. I immediately gravitated towards the claw games. Note, the claw games are tough, I had to look up YouTube strategies and I still only ended up with a small prize from a smaller crane. I'll be back soon for Kaito's friends! If you're big on crossovers, Round One is constantly partnering with big names like Holo Live and other anime brands/titles. Sanrio is another major contributor, some plushies and prizes are even exclusive to Round One! I spotted cups, keychains, and much more. Now, Round One also offers bowling, karaoke, 99 cent ice cream, and arcade games. Thankfully, I went on a Saturday afternoon and it wasn't bad at all. No one was hogging up the activities and people were civil. I thought the experience was quite calming and sobering. I spent 20-ish mins inside during a quick stop at the mall and I already want to go back... when I get paid! Fun ambiance!

    I normally don't leave Yelp reviews, but I have to say this place has definitely changed…read more There weren't many employees walking around checking on customers or the claw machines -- mainly just the mechanics team. Usually there are instructions showing how items should be positioned in the machines, but this time there were only reference photos inside the machine. I asked an employee if they could reposition an item (something I've never had an issue with before), and the interaction felt pretty rude. They told me, "You shouldn't look at the reference photos, those are for employees." They attempted to reposition the item, but honestly just placed it back in basically the same spot, so it didn't help at all. It was disappointing because I used to enjoy coming to this location. I don't think I'll be returning since I don't want to feel like I'm inconveniencing staff just by asking for help.

    I don't recommend this place simply because it didn't feel as inviting and welcoming as any other…read moreplace in America. It's not open to the public (as in you are not allowed to go in unless you pay). The owners guard the entrance/near the front door inside and you can't really walk in and go around to check out the games first unless you pay. It was just about a few feet is what we were able to look at inside and only up to the parking lot is all we were able to see. As you walk in, you'll be standing at the front while they stare at you. The owner just stared and made a comment "It looks like you've never been here" No S lady. It was our first time, recommended by the McDonald's Museum across the street. She stated what their rates were. The owner did offer to have her husband escort us to walk around if we wanted to look at the place. Although we may have looked young, we're not little kids. We didn't feel like being chaperoned by an adult. We're 4 decades old. If the whole place runs by itself without the need of physical money, how would they even know who's playing the 30min package or the 1hr? If they use a prepaid players digital card, then a chaperone wouldn't be needed if we can't play the games anyway. We don't know anyone there or wouldn't need to cheat to play for free from others. Needless to say, we didn't see much. Just up to the door while they guarded it. Too bad, we would've enjoyed the place, but instead we were greeted with a cold welcome. Judging by this place, I see the owners like to respond to every comment/review. To the owner, if you're reading this, please don't bother replying. We won't be reading it. We already got the point. To those reading this in response to the owner, please believe me when I say this is an honest review, and real customer service experience. I'm a minority in this area AND NEW so, maybe they judge differently. Edit: lol the owner STILL replied although we already mentioned their comment was not needed. Hard-headed much..?
