Invited to a party and got to visit Lucky Strike for the first time. Have known of it, but just never got here until today. Staff were friendly and helpful, helping is get our bowling shoes and drinks. Drinks were good. Bar was limited (for us) but plenty of draft beer, but had enough variety. There are sofas and bar stool tables to sit at. Sofas are a bit worn and very deep but comfortable enough. Party room is spacious but comfy at the same time. Bowling was fun. It was a bit challenging to set up our names, but doable. There are four lanes and you have the usual option of gutters on or off. Adequate number of balls, plenty of shoes. Multiple (3) pizza choices, (2) sliders, and wings were available to us. Also a delicious Caesar salad, hummus and baba ganoush (?) and pita with veggies platter, fries. Not sure what else is available (should have grabbed a take out menu...) But offerings we had were plentiful. UH football game was on (Go Bows!) since it was a UH Watch party for us. It was a breezy day and the party room door was left open so the temperature was very comfortable. Not sure if they always leave the door open but it was good choice for today. Bathroom was clean (important to ladies!). Fun place to spend a few hours. read more

We came here to eat but isnt there supposed to be a small bowling alley? If they do have one I guess I missed it. lucky strike located in the Alamoana shopping center above the food court by macys not the main food court. The insides is pretty cool. A lot of games and lights, it's like an upscale fun factory. A different vibe from D&B more of an arcade. They do have a pretty cool sports bar section in the back or in the front, depending in which way you entered. This review is not for the games it is specifically for the bar side. The bar is pretty cool. It has a lot of monitors that are playing sports or other programs. The sitting area aint too big (pic) but I imagine very crowded on the weekends. They even have inhouse bathrooms that wasnt too clean but not nasty either. The food is all bar food such as burgers fries tacos fish and chips etc. I'm not commenting on the drinks because I dont drink. The service was kind of slow, but then again we went on a tuesday just before 5 pm. They had three staff that we could see. A bartender, a waiter, and I guess a host. The staff wasn't overly friendly but pleasant. The food was ok not good or bad just average. The prices was manageable specially it being in the mall and the portions was pretty good. I can see how this would be a cool destination to watch sports or a cool option for a weekend cruise spot. read more

Food- 4 stars Service- 4 stars Ambiance- 5 stars This place is great for kids if you want to kill time, reward your children for being patient while you shop or when you just want to be a kid again. Lucky Strike is located on the second floor of Ala Moana near Macy's. There are dozens of games to choose from and great for children ages 3 and up mostly. My boyfriend and I visited here with his daughter and she had a blast. After almost an hour of games, we got a bite to eat in the dining area. The dining area has several televisions and bar seating for those who would like to catch nfl, mlb games or even UFC fights. I ordered a Caesar's salad and water. We couldn't catch the happy hour specials but I wasn't upset about it because I knew I needed to eat some veggies lol. The one thing that was disappointing was that they did not have any high chairs or booster seats available for children which is ironic because this place is supposed to be child friendly. read more

Went here for a drink. Saw a happy hour menu that said Monday-Friday . Nothing stated anywhere that not available on holidays . Server checked with his manager and came back with the reason " the happy hour price is taken out of the computer cause it's Labor Day" . Seems a bit crazy but it is what it is.....had my cocktails and we ordered the nachos with beef. Nothing amazing it was ok. Service was good. Would we come back again??? Hmmmmm not sure . read more

Ok so it's a Dave and Buster's style place inside the Ala Moana Mall. That said it's exactly what you might expect. Loud with flashing lights and standard pub food. What you might not realize that some of the pricing for a mall on Oahu it's surprisingly reasonable. This is not gourmet food but standard pub fare which is great for a quick stop when you are hungry. Don't expect much dinner conversation as it is quite loud. I saw comments about service but my experience was fine. We were seated quickly and it did take about 10 minutes to be acknowledged but once we were "noticed" they apologized and the rest of the service was great. read more

Came here on a Wednesday and their games were half off. Had a total of ~$40 and we were able to play a decent amount of games. Before we played though, we grabbed a quick bite. We got a steak to share (you could add rice and/or fries for a charge). The steak was pretty good, we got it medium rare, it was flavorful and so were the mushrooms. The sizzling plate also added onto it. It did take a while for it to come out and since they were super slow the wait felt extra long. We also got the cookie skillet to share and that was pretty good too. I would say this was my first time ever having a skillet cookie so I am unsure how it usually is. I just felt that it would've been better if the cookie was a bit more cooked as it all turned into super sweet mush halfway (with the whipped cream and ice cream) in. read more

Lucky Strike has been a part of Ala Moana for at least 5 years now, offering bowling, arcade games, bar, and American dining similar to a Dave & Busters. We went to originally do bowling to catch up with classmates but on a Sunday, they were booked from 11:00a-4:30p due to prior reservations. Instead, we took advantage of the arcades downstairs and had a lot of fun. It isn't unique as an arcade/bar/dining option, but conveniently located in Ala Moana. Wouldn't mind going again in the future. read more

Had my grandson's 11th birthday at Lucky Strike in Ala Moana, and I have to say--it was awesome! The grandkids, as well as my adult kids, had a blast. The food was onolicious! Pizza, chicken wings, fries, and soda were served throughout the duration of the party. We purchased the party package, and I have to say, the price was definitely worth it. We had a nice big space for the kids to eat and bowl, with plenty of room to store our things. Our host was on point and made everything run smoothly. Much mahalo to Manager Daniel and our hosts Martin and Micah. You guys rock! Thank you for helping make Damian's 11th birthday such a fun and memorable day! read more

Mahalo Nui to Crissy for being a Rockstar in customer service! We had a great time even after some drunks came by spilling drinks all over our table, including guests. We knew it wasnt her fault yet she compensated us representing her establishment in such a positive way! Mahalo Nui again Crissy at the bar! Mind you, she was running the whole show on her own like a champ when we first got there! 7x tables before backup arrived. You are, a ROCKSTAR! read more

I feel like the good isn't as good as before. Either new chef or new recipes. Ordered the garlic parm fries and it tasted like regular fries until we got to the end. When you can finally taste the garlic it's covered in a lot of oil. The ribeye steak was okay. I like that it comes on a bed of mushrooms and onions. The steak was medium rare when ordered rare but no issue sine it came on the hot plate. Spread them out and let them sit for a bit it cooked out, they also cut the steak very thin. It was smoking and sizzling but the steak was room temp. Kiki pizza was hot and steamy had to let it cool down before baby could eat it. Loco Coco was good. All foods came out room temp/warm except pizza. Server was really nice though! Came pretty quick with refills. read more

We went to this place to watch a soccer game. The game we wanted to watch was not on the big screen. The manager refused to switch the screen even though everyone in the place wanted to watch the othe game. Our group was 20 people and we demanded the change but they kept saying half time is when the switch. They are so not customer focused. I would never go back to this joint with their present manager. We walked out half way through the game to watch the game in another place. Do not go to lucky strike. read more

My husband and I came into Lucky Strike for some food and drinks, and Alexandra took great care of us. She was super friendly, easy to talk to, and made us feel really welcome. You can tell she genuinely cares about her customers and has great people skills by the way she speaks. She checked on us throughout our meal, made sure we had everything we needed. I really enjoyed the Diablo pasta, and my husband loved the sliders and the draft beers. We even did a couple of shots together! Thanks, Alexandra, for the awesome service. We'll definitely be back! 10/10 service for sure! read more

Took my fiance to lucky strike for dinner and we loved it! The food was really good and the service was awesome, not to mention the great music they were playing last night. I ordered the lemon pepper hot wings and my fiance ordered the bistro bacon burger, and we both shared the mozzarella sticks. The wings were pretty good but I feel like they were pretty small and could have used a little bit more seasoning. But the burger was amazing! It was super juicy and the bistro bacon that was added into it gave it an even more deep flavor, it's juicy and savory and worth the price. I should have definitely ordered that instead haha. The mozzarella sticks were good too and gave a really good cheese pull when we ate it! Our server Chauncey was really nice as well and took really good care of us last night. The vibe in lucky strike is always nice too, they have giant tvs playing which ever game might be on at the time and they have great music playing through out the entire establishment. It was also pretty empty for a Friday night, might be because of the new Dave n busters, so even more of a reason to come here instead! We will for sure be coming back to eat dinner and play some games in the future, especially if we need to plan an event with some friends. Next time I'm definitely gonna order a burger though, or maybe the sizzling steak platter. read more

My wife and I had an amazing time here at lucky strike! Kudos to our server Alexandra! She gave excellent service and was very attentive. She went over the menu when we was indecisive and gave us some guidance which was really helpful. I ended up getting the Loco Moco, and my wife got the Diablo Pasta! Which was so yummy! Thank you again Alexandra for the amazing hospitality! We will be back ! read more

This was my first visit! I had a great deal on Groupon. We went there after church on a Sunday. So it was pretty empty. We had so much fun!! It's clean and there's a lot of variety of games. Although, my hubby and I got stuck on the coin drop game!! I think the redemption rates are pretty fair, but we decided to keep our points for the next time. read more

Had some time to kill today and what can I say, I'm a glutton for pizza, beer and loud arcade games. We were helped by braddah Quan and as always he does an amazing job assisting other customers, tending bar and running his own food. Service here is kind, personable and always willing to fulfill any requests that you might have. Buffalo chicken pizza which was on the older menu, was doable today by kitchen staff and came out great. Crispy won ton with the poke nachos were delicious, as well as the Caesar salad! Perfect spot to lounge for the game, grab some food or let your keiki run around and spend your hard earned cash on games. Make sure you do the survey and write more reviews for the staff here. All of them seem to be working hard, but smiled at all parties as they walked by. Cold beer, refillable sodas, strong cocktails, we will be back! read more

I'm happy to update my previous review because our most recent visit was a completely different -- and wonderful -- experience! The service this time was excellent. There were no confusing QR codes or ordering issues, and we had a server who was attentive and accommodating. As someone with a shrimp allergy, I was able to confirm that the oil used for my meal was safe, which gave me peace of mind. Our server even had the kitchen make an off-menu item for our son (buttered noodles, which used to be on the menu), and he was thrilled. The food was delicious -- I enjoyed every bite of my chicken katsu, and my husband loved his platter of mixed appetizers. After dinner, we spent some time enjoying the arcade games, which was a fun treat. The space has a lot of game options for its size, which makes it a perfect after-dinner stop. Even when our server accidentally charged us for something we didn't order, he promptly corrected the mistake and even offered to return his tip. That kind of honesty and care really reinforced our appreciation for the service. Overall, we left very happy and will definitely be returning -- probably very soon! Highly recommend giving this place another try. read more

Another great time with the family! Mama Roz and Chauncey are always amazing and super friendly. Nice to see they remember us, and Mama Roz always has fun treats for the kiddos. And the boss lady is always so nice and comes to great us. We always see her integrating with the guest. read more

This place has it all. 20+ tv screens one that's as big as my living room. Kids have probably 50-60 different games to play while parents enjoy craft cocktails and high end bar foods at an extremely reasonable price. I recommend any of the burgers, (if you ask they'll make any style you want). My wife goes loco moco but it's large enough to share as are all the entree's. The sushi is surprisingly excellent as well. Be patient as they seem a little short staffed but all in all it's a great experience. read more

We have been frequent visitors to the arcade side of Lucky Strike, but had never tried the food/restaurant side until recently when we were hungry but also wanted to play games without going too far away. Service: greeted immediately by the FOH staff and then was seated. It was a random weekday and so there weren't many patrons but there were some folks dining in and watching some sports channels on the TVs. Inside: There are quite a few tables and chairs along with booth seating and bar seating as well. There are many TVs behind the bar for patron enjoyment. Food: we had the appetizer plate and the quesadilla, which both were surprisingly very good. All of the food on the appetizer plate were fresh, hot, and crispy. We would dine here again read more

Reserved their small room for a celebration. Really nice staff, super friendly. Most of the food was good. The sliders were a total let down. I had seen pictures on Yelp and thought they'd be a good add to our menu, NOT so much. Burger sliders were really overcooked and dried out. The chicken sliders were a very thin dried out piece of bread chicken, thought they'd be more of a chicken tender thickness. We threw most of them away. The chicken skewers were delicious. Again, dealing with staff was great. read more

I am so uncomfortable to be writing this. I genuinely have never wrote a bad review for a restaurant in my life. But my friends and I got to lucky strike around 8:30-9pm. (9 of us). We left at 10:40. Mind you this is a Monday night, there weren't many groups, maybe 3-4 at the most including my own. We were sat quickly, our order was taken quickly. But... our food arrived in 3 different intervals, which is normally fine! But it's not okay when the last plate comes nearly an hour later, after everyone else is about finished eating. You might be thinking, why didn't you say anything? The server didn't come back to our table till nearly an hour later, one of our people ordered a drink, he canceled it. My partner had to remind them he didn't get his food yet. No it wasn't anything special, it was bbq wings. A small bowl of just wings, that's all he ordered, and it didn't come for so long. That's not the end of it. It was around 10, 10:20 maybe, when we asked for the check. Yes we split it, so maybe that's where the problem happened?? But it took an additional 15-25 minutes to get to us. I'm all for the benefit of the doubt, this could be a one time thing, they didn't have lots of staff. And we all have those days, right? But it bothered me to the point I had to post this. My entire group left, and we all agreed we wouldn't return. read more

Seated at 2100, our beverages were ordered with Abby tonight. Following that, we had our apps taken. We sat and waited as the service is usually quick but with tonight, especially getting seated with low capacity our table sat for 40 mins with 2 beverages. The server came thru with the "how is everything going?" With 2 beverages and a dry table. For mozzarella sticks and spicy ahi nachos as appetizers, we were hoping to have it before being asked about our entree order but as we saw other tables being served in the same area, it started to be a little depressing watching heavier sized orders brought out. We left and asked the manager to allow me to pay for just the drinks. 40 mins with no update and courtesy heads up like "sorry for the wait, our kitchen is backed up" or anything of the sort. No sincerity towards having us sit on a dry table as she passed us about 5+ times and looked at our table. Hope this helps anyone in the future, I never want to post like this but I felt this is one of those moments I could voice my experience being poor. read more

If you're a serious bowler, Lucky Strike may not be for you. However, if you're into playing arcade games, do a little leisurely bowling, and enjoying drinks, bar food, and talking over the loud arcade atmosphere, Lucky Strike might be for you. We ended up here twice in the past two months because we frequent Ala Moana Center. The first time, we went close to closing time and enjoyed playing games. Like many arcades nowadays, games are played with a reloadable card that you swipe at each machine. The games were dirt cheap and only realized that games were half off because it was a Wednesday. Sound familiar? Yes, one of their major competitors in the area also has Wednesday specials. Our second visit started with a meal. Chauncey was our server and provided us with excellent customer service. He was friendly and attentive, but not overbearing. He made sure to check on us frequently, but not hover. The food? Meh. Typical bar food. I had a spicy ahi bowl. It was spicier compared to most other spicy ahi bowls I've had. The kiddos had pizza and sliders. My son devoured his sliders, but the kid's pizza looked and tasted mediocre. The regular-sized pizza was ok. The burgers looked good, and from what I was told, were decent tasting, but not the best. Will I return? Sure. Most likely. I don't think I'll go out of my way to make another trip to Lucky Strike but it sure is convenient when you're at the mall and want to enjoy drinks and games. read more

Wasn't quite ready to end my day of drinking so our night continued here at Lucky Strike. They are conveniently located at Ala Moana which was a quick uber ride from our hotel. I didn't check out the bowling area since we had just bowled earlier that day, but it was a great spot as the kids had free reign on all the arcade games while the adults could continue to drink. Win win situation if you ask me, haha! I mostly sat at the bar the whole night. It was relatively empty for a holiday weekend evening which was nice. They had a lot of fun drink names and the bartender was friendly. She whipped up our drinks quickly and checked on our needs regularly. The drinks were on the pricier side though, but tasted good! I got a couple of Moscow Mules and a blue drink (can't remember the name). I, of course, tried my hand at the claw machines, but no luck and it wasn't as fun as other arcades I've been to. The claws didn't have any grip at all and the prizes weren't all that great. The kids had a good time playing games though and got a few prizes at the end of the night. read more

We recently had our daughter's birthday party there and I'm so glad we did! From start to finish, everything was painless and went super well. The planning process was exceptional, Melody was awesome to communicate with and she made sure everything was set for the party. Juan, the manager, went above and beyond to make sure that our group was well taken care of. He and his team were so great to work with - my daughter truly had such a memorable birthday and everyone had an amazing time. Final thoughts: Our son had so much fun that now he wants to have his party there, too. We would definitely recommend Lucky Strike for your next event! read more

We went during Wednesday happy hour. The half off bowling was great for my family, we all had fun. There were not crazy crowds around this time and felt we got our money's worth. For happy hour, the fish tacos and beef tacos were great. Glad that they have half off bowling on Wednesdays for quality family time. read more

Came here for our anniversary and quite disappointed. The staff isn't too friendly, they all just look bored and annoyed to be there which stinks. There's only 4 lanes. They're very short and use pins on strings so if you're expecting a real bowling game with true scores, think again. The food was good but expensive and small plates. Overall it was ok but I wouldn't return. read more

This little joint reminds me of Dave and Busters in California. It's essentially a video and gaming arcade with a large sports bar that holds about 12 fifty inch TVs and a huge screen TV -- all of which show the different sports that are being televised. What's awesome is you let your kids play while you sit, relax, enjoy some eats/drinks and watch your favorite sport. They are on a card-based system of credits, so you pre-pay for a gaming card and it loads it up on points. Each game varies in how many points it costs to play. I spent $100 on two gaming cards and it lasted my 9 and 11 year-olds about an hour and a half. Meanwhile, I enjoyed their juicy chicken tenders and a cocktail. The Caesar salad I opted to barely touch as it was drenched in sauce and I could barely eat it. The service was average and the ambiance, while loud, allowed me to relax while soaking up the high energy. read more

Visited the mall while on a week long vacation and stumbled across lucky strike. As an arcade connoisseur I just had to check it out. The games were on the pricer side but I did notice that you could actually win from the claw machines which made it worth it. The staff really nice and was willing to help out with any of the games. Shout to the manager and the arcade technicians. We had such a blast and decided to come back on our last day when we saw a Groupon ($25 for 100 credits). It also happened to be a discount day which meant the games were half off. We had such a great time and stayed there for 3+ hours simply in the arcade with two our Groupon of credits. read more

Had a fun time, definitely more for adults and older kids than younger kids. Lots of games to go around. The prize/ ticket redemption area was okay, not that much good things and you need lots of tickets just to get a plush. We had lots of fun playing a few games so we'll definitely be back. read more
