    Baked Potato, French Fries and Chicken Nuggets
    Rick S.

    To judge this on Food alone it's sub-par, nut to evaluate the experience with the arcade and target audience... it's an older crowd than Chuck E Cheese and a younger crowd than Dave & Buster's as a video game arcade for kids and children's birthdays or groups. It gets * one or * * two stars on the food quality and selection. The food here is very sugar and carb heavy... so not great for diabetics, lactose intolerant, healthy clean eaters or those weight watchers on any diet. The base entrees and food they serve is simple no-frills Pizza - various toppings Pasta Chicken Nuggets (previously frozen type) Mac & Cheese Then they have a somewhat mediocre or lackluster in quality sides of: Soup Salad Garlic Bread French Fries Basic Desserts Drinks Slushie/Icee/Slurpie Frozen Drinks So, if you're coming here for the food, on one level it is cheap in cost at $15 per person for the AYCE Buffet... but $15 can buy you better quality food if you're just looking to eat. If you have a family of 4 (4 x $15 = $60) you can get better pizza anywhere and better chicken or make better Pasta at home or go to an Italian restaurant for that money. The price is affordable 'tho overall for many who like this casual AYCE self service format. My suggestion is they raise the price to $20 and make the selection more robust and much higher quality, especially for teens to adults. If you don't like pizza, pasta or greasy less than healthy foods, you'll have nothing to eat for the most part other than a weak salad. They need more protein and fresh selections. The Sizzler mini AYCE Salad Bar is more robust than this. Any Asian AYCE Buffet has leaps and bounds better food. Hometown Buffet puts this place to shame. So, if they want to live up to the advertised "Incredible" brand moniker, they need to step it up so it can become a venue for repeat customers, destination dining based upon cravings and not just a side aspect of a video game entertainment amusement center where you have to pay for games by the experience (coin-op credits per game). So, my recommendation to the company is to improve the food. What would bring most patrons here is the arcade. There are "entry fees" so look up the cost and what you get before assuming you can just walk in to play games only. It's good for the 14 and under aged children. The crowd can be rambunctious with kids. It's more inner-city than the stereotypical South Bay Beach City in environment, serving Carson and Torrance but within 20-30 mins of the SBBC area. The staff are nice and friendly. Parking is very plentiful and easy.

    I got a breadstick, mixed veggies, salad with blue cheese dressing, and pepperoni pizza. The salad was pretty crunch and had water or something on them because they were wet. The mixed veggies were pretty soft and steamed. They tasted like the veggies themselves and didn't have much seasoning, if any. I got a chicken nugget and Louisiana nugget. The Louisiana nugget was spicier than the regular nugget. I got Broccoli cheddar soup. It was pretty creamy. I was here at 1:20 pm for my nephew's birthday party. We were in a private room. The table had around 30 chairs I think so it was a tight fit. We were moved to the general area at 2:45 pm. Employees got our plates and utensils when we were finished eating. They had gloves on. There was a curtain dividing the room from the other room so they can be combined. One gripe I had was there were no soup bowls available when I checked the buffet area so I used my dad's.

    Jon's Incredible Pizza used to actually be worth going to, but this visit was terrible. We paid around $50 for a family of 4 to eat crappy pizza, nuggets, and fries. Honestly, nothing on the buffet even looked appetizing. The buffet area was filthy and more than halfway empty. Dirty dishes everywhere, and the fountain drink machine was disgusting. The play area was okay -- my kids were somewhat entertained, but I was bored. There was only one attendant trying to help when games kept breaking down. He was a very nice young man, but most of the other employees were rude and unhelpful. Workers would literally walk past trash and just ignore it. The food used to be good and worth the price, but not anymore. I'd rather buy a frozen pizza and stay home next tim or stay local at Shakeys or Chuck E. Cheese

    We had a great time! Hosted a birthday party here for the first time with the birthday package and it definitely wouldn't be the last. Our host, Dallas H. was attentive and friendly and played games with the kids and made us balloon animals. The arcade was so fun. Our kids enjoyed mini golf, the roller coaster and bumper cars. And you cannot go wrong with the all you can buffet! :D

    The food was edible, but cleanliness issues really affected my appetite. I noticed food residue on a "clean" plate and on the fork dispenser, so I wiped items down with my own napkin before using them. I also avoided the ice machine because there was visible pink mold at the bottom, which raised concerns about overall sanitation. Food-wise, I stuck to safer options like pepperoni and jalapeño pizza and flatbread, which were okay. I sampled the pastas and the Alfredo was the only decent one--adding chicken and broccoli helped since the sauce was very runny on its own. The potatoes weren't worth it, and most other items didn't look appealing. For dessert, I skipped the ice cream because kids were constantly handling the machine and chose the jello instead, which was fine. The game room was decent for my nephew (under 3), as most of the toddler-friendly games worked. However, many larger games were closed or out of order, so options were very limited for older kids. This did save us some money, but it's something families should be aware of. Overall, manageable food and limited entertainment, but cleanliness needs serious improvement.

    Had a birthday party for my niece here it went amazing. Rayon was beyond helpful with set up and clean up and keeping things organized and on time,with 10 thirteen year old is a feat in itself. Everyone made sure we had everything we needed. Only wish I had added the extra time for the room

If they are they are doing a good job letting people win most of the time. I think there were a few machines at time I had to try 8 times and gave up because I couldn't pick up the plushie. But usually one token I get one plushie. This place is absolutely addictive but I like it over other places because you can upgrade your plushies for bigger ones at the front desk. It's such a nice treat because if we have a bunch of little ones we don't want, and a big one we do like better, it's worth it. I leave with at least one big plushie that I exchange for 8 medium plushies, and a few more medium plushies. Total I take home each trip 1 big plushie, and 3-6 medium to little plushies. Other claw machine places I feel cheated because you either have to put a bunch of coins in to play once, or the plushies aren't easy to grab. This place is not only affordable, but you put one coin for each machine for one play. It's really fair and wants you to win. The cherry on top is the plushie upgrade exchange after you're done playing. I come here at least once a month because it's really fun

    Review #966 2026-032…read more This used to be AMF Bowling & was later acquired via merger by Strike Holdings LLC (dba Bowlmor Lanes), & rebranded as Bowlero in 2017. Since our last visit over the summer, they're now defunct & again renamed to Lucky Strike in 2025. Whew! Bowlero is actually closer to home than the defunct Gable House Bowl, & the very last bowling alley in Torrance after the demise of Palos Verdes Bowl prior to GHB. I went through a phase of bowling at least once per month in my YA years & recently started up again after having kids due to bowling birthday parties. I miss bowling... I bowled for the 1st time when I was teen & can even remember my 1st score of 77. I didn't bowl much, but I'm usually in the mid-range of 150 or thereabouts & have scored a few turkeys in my lifetime. At one point, I had planned to purchase bowling shoes so that I'm not using the public ones since I hung out with friends that either like to bowl or shoot pool. We were invited to a teen's 15th b-day at Bowlero & the space is huge! It has a mini arcade, bar, pool tables, & 40 bowling lanes that's equipped with lounge seats, blacklights, & HD screens that played movies, music videos, & sports. My daughter had a good ol' time with the birthday girl & their friends, most were from her Color Guard team. Both lanes seem to malfunction frequently enough that they didn't get a full 2 hours; the girls didn't seem that into bowling so it was fine. They were served pizza, chips & salsa with fountain drinks. I only wished they were either served before or after bowling to clean their hands since none of them thought to wash their hands between frames. Yikes! \(`0´)/ None could really bowl & scoring 50+ points was an accomplishment with a couple scoring 100+; the random strikes helped in between the gutters. After a couple of rounds, the girls hung out at the arcade; it's on the smaller side with some games that offer tickets that can exchanged at the automated prize hub. I thought Bowlero would be a fun place to hold my 15 YO's birthday celebration the following month because there's so much downtime for her friends to chitchat & hangout. And I happened to find a really great Groupon Deal: $84 for 2 hours of bowling + shoes rental for 6... not sure of the normal rate, but this is $7/hour with shoe rental! I kept it small to help H build relationships with her friends. It's been only a month, & Bowlero is still riddled with technical issues that we spent more time waiting for the tech to fix the problems than bowling. Even with a lane switch didn't do much to fix the frequent downtime. I even requested to be closer to the center of the bowling alley, near the front desk due to the far left lanes' malfunctions. Again, scoring 50+ points was a real accomplishment with one g/f hitting 100+ in the 1st round. At the 2nd go, H had the highest score of 81. I'm not sure when is prime time but the parking lot was half-full at each visit & it was quite busy inside with half the alley in bowling action. Bowlero is a chill place for a family-friendly bowling game or two... if only the technical issues doesn't mar the experience.

    Great bowling place!…read more The drinks and food are a bit pricey but we hardly come here so we decided to split the cost. The service is good! The food is good! The place gets packed around 8:30 pm so come around 7:30 if you want to get a lane. And come with a group so that it's cheaper bc it was just me and friend and we played good but we finished so quick. We then went to the bar to have drinks and the bartender Esme made our night bc she was so attentive and quick and helpful with our drinks. Kudos to Esmeralda for being the best bartender! Forgot to take photos of our drinks but they were good!
