I wish I could start this review off with some notable mention, like how awesome I'm at in bowling…read more After a few taunts from my friends...its been discovered that I daintily hop down the lane at a very interesting attempt to bowl...and I'm okay with that...because I came in 2nd place! This was my first time here and let me tell you...Stardust Bowl 2 is everything you'd expect a local hometown bowling alley to be (and I say that in a non-judgmental observational kind of way). 1. There's the local cop who is stationed there -- why is that, I wonder? Is there imminent harm from the local drunk? 2. I'm sure the lady that rang us up was named Marge or Peggy or Mary Sue 3. Everyone has this friendly demeanor that still tells you that they won't throw you no farther than they can catch you. 4. I suddenly felt transported to an 90s version of back to the future. If I'd seen Marty, I wouldn't have been shocked! 5. The fun we had was so wholesome and genuine. 6. A lovely mixed crowd of old, young, families, singles, first dates, and the pro-bowlers. 7. Cheap beers (I had Woodchuck Cider, I don't quite consider that a beer...) Definitely worth a visit!

We've been going here for a while, and recently last week we had 3 balls gets stuck in one of their…read moreball returns, and they all got chewed up pretty bad. The guy at the counter was nice and said they'll take care of it, we filled out a couple sheets for the ball info and our info and they said they'll have the pro shop fix them. Well, we got them back the first time, hardly anything was done, the employee of the pro shop was extremely rude with us that day as well. So we left them there to get resurfaced, and the employee told us to just talk to Jason(the owner of the pro shop) when he comes back the next day. So I did, he resurfaced the balls himself. 2 of the 3 are okay, they have blemishes but they're smooth. The third one, my Evoke Hysteria(i bought this ball 3 weeks ago), 90% of the coverstock was taken off to remove the issues. The USBC serial numbers are partially gone so it is INELIGIBLE and not legal to use in my upcoming sanctioned league or tournaments. The GM of the alley told my wife that they're not able to replace the ball and there's nothing they can do. Im sorry, but you acknowledged your lane equipment messed up our balls, you're liable for the ball. Any reputable alley would do right by it's returning customers and fix/replace a ball that was damaged by your equipment especially a recently purchased one. I DO NOT recommend bowling here, unless you want to have your bowling balls destroyed.

We had a blast here! We walked in with 4 adults and 8 kids. Very easy to get settled in. He took…read moreeveryone sizes right away and got us to our lanes. Wish I knew his name but he was very patient and got us everything we asked for right away! We ordered pizzas, fries, mozzarella sticks, chicken nuggets, cheese curds, mini tacos and chicken bites. Everything was tasty but them chicken bitesdelicious!!! Definitely recommend and I can't wait to go back. Think we found a new bowling home. Oh and it's cash only!!! They do have an atm if needed.

There is also a section for axe throwing, laser tag, an arcade, cyber sport and a full bar. When we arrived, the employees were pleasant and helped us get the sizing right for our bowling shoes. There was a nice woman who came over to assist us in getting our game started. I'm so glad she recognized that we had no clue what we were doing. She also checked on us periodically and the kids can't wait to return. We will probably have food next time and might play some games.

First time there. Tried to order from the QR code but it would not take a gift card. Went to the…read moreonly person available, at the bar, and asked how does this work. She said with gift cards the order had to be placed with her. Ok great....she didn't tell us that the bar automatically charges bar gratuity! I noticed that additional almost $6 charge (on top of the tip) and questioned it. Her comment was it's automatic at the bar. I then said but I had to come to the bar in order for the gift card to be used. I'm then told there's a kiosk by the kitchen that could be used too! They fooled me once-won't happen again cause I'm not going back! Very deceiving!

Not even worth one star!! The man working there was either racist or just not a people person…read more After standing at the desk for a few minutes, he finally comes over. Not to mention, he was standing right there talking with 2 other guys the whole time. I thought he was one of the customers. Anyway, when he walked up he never said hello. He says " we close in 30 minutes ". There is more but not worth me continuing on it. I just don't recommend this place at all... and the balls suck also!!

I did not expect this at all. We went to Rock 'n Rail…read morefestival and were pretty underwhelmed by the music and lack of places to sit, so we went to the patio at Set Em Up. It was very busy and we were seated at the farthest table from the front. We waited around 15 minutes to be noticed and had made up our mind to leave and take our chances at the fest when the manager came over and asked if we had been helped. When we said 'no' he told us he would be right back. He came back with Nicole and told us that the waitress who had our table was busy with huge tables and Nicole would be our server. She apologized for the wait and we ordered a couple of beers and our food. Sharon got Polish sausage and saur kraut and I got Indonesian Noodles and added chicken. The menu said it was sweet and spicy Asian noodles with a fried egg on top plus the chicken. Nicole came out right when our beers needed to be refreshed and we ordered a couple more. The food came out and looked great (my egg had a hot sauce smiley face on it) but we had no silverware. After 3 people trying to find silverware Nicole ran over with plastic forks, real knives and napkins. Then it happened. I took a bite. The Indonesian Noodles with smiley face egg and chicken was the best dinner that I have ever ordered at any restaurant! This was not our first time here but we had gone to the back of the menu for sandwiches and never even noticed the entrees before. The entire time I was eating my Noodles I was floating through the air like a cartoon dog that got a dog treat! Highly recommended!!! Sharon also liked the Polish and saur kraut and kept trying to get me to try it but I didn't want to waste a bite of those noodles! Nicole saved the day for us and we will be back many times, I'm sure. :)

We had a holiday party here and it was wonderful! It's a smaller bowling alley, but everyone had a…read moregreat time! The food was really great and the service was top notch. The guys were ready to help if there were any issues! We had like 40 little kids so it was a lot to handle! One thing to note is this bowling alley is a hand scoring bowling alley. The kids were not keeping score so it didn't matter! But just an fyi!

I like this bar a lot, mainly for these reasons…read more 1. No smoking. I appreciate not smelling like an ashtray 2. Mini corn dogs... yes please, chicken strips are yum too 3. $15.00 pitcher of a mixed drink special. Yes... all for me. 4. Cool and friendly bartenders who know their stuff and hustle to get you your drink 5. Great DJ/Karaoke starting at 10 on Fridays and Saturdays with pretty decent singers. even if you think you suck, who cares... get drunk and have fun. 6. Clean. I like a nice clean bar.

This is one of my favorite bars in Crown Point, especially if you're looking to get away from the…read moreteeny-boppers and nightclub-style bars. Very laid back, yet awesome place to hang out. Their drinks are very reasonably priced, great selection, and made well. It's clean inside and they offer typical bar-food till around midnight on the weekends. I personally like the corn nuggets and chicken strips the best; very tasty. The bartenders are friendly and do a great job whether the bar is full or not; Meredith is a fantastic mixologist (she works on Saturday nights), so if you're looking to try something different, all her to make you something special and you will be happily surprised. The bar is non-smoking, which can be a blessing for the non-smokers. I personally do smoke, but have no problem going outside to do so; you can smoke under the covered area near the door which works for me. Overall, I just love the atmosphere of this bar; friendly, comfortable, and a lot of fun without making you feel out of place for being either too old or too young. They also have a couple of pool tables and free shuffleboard, a DJ with karaoke on Fridays and Saturdays starting at 10, and a very diverse crowd. Do yourself a favor and check the place out, cuz it's pretty great.

Oh Plaza, how I miss the days of the games we would squeeze in between class with the ladies…read moreringing their bells, and my lucky bowling shirt that scored me a 245 game... and the Saturday nights with magnet man screwing with us, the occasional black-light bowl, and the mullets on most men, some women, and practically every child. We had special guests come with us some weekends... when Al was back from school, when crazy Dave bowled with 2 balls, and when good ol' Victor came with tight-rolled jeans - yikes. At the end of a good night, I'd leave our dirty clothes in the bathroom because they reeked of smoke, but it was definitely worth it every time.

Customer service can be hit or miss. My league team had to withdraw mid-season because two were…read morerelocated for work and one for personal reasons. At first, the alley wouldn't help me with cancelling my team, even though I communicated that for the past month my league secretary has ignored my request to pull the team. Instead I continued to get charged for my lane through the end of the 26-week schedule. I didn't realize recreational league bowling was a contract you can't escape! To date, we've been charged over $100. However, they were completely different when I stopped by to discuss the issue with the league coordinator, and I feel a lot better about the situation. Anyway, I think it could've been easier to handle upfront but it's good to know that they empathize with their loyal customers.
