    Sundae

    Cans back for another birthday party. The hot honey on the pepperoni pizza was a huge hit. Will be coming back for that for sure. The hostess are very helpful. They offered to help me set up, all though there is not much to do because they handle everything they helped with the little things I brought to set up. They were kind enough to also cut the cake. Just a heads up if you host a party there will be a service fee that is not the tip it is an additional fee for facility use and it doesn't include tip. The host definitely deserve a tip they are awesome. The food comes out right on time, everything ran so smoothly. My guest had a great time.

    She should not be in customer service as a server. The most rude server I've ever experienced.

    Service is HORRIBLE here. Servers at the bar are unacceptable. A bunch of kids/young adults who have no business in customer service are working here. We were very polite customers and yet this one bartender in particular just was not having a good day perhaps. Main event, do better with the hiring process!!! We had a group of baseball moms at the bar. 7 of us. This particular server named Isabelle or Isabella, blatantly sees us and completely ignores us. For a good 5 minutes straight. One of our moms tried to get her attention and she goes, "I'm helping these other people first and you're next". As she proceeds to help every single person that comes after us first and rolls her eyes. Does not even acknowledge us AT ALL. Attitude the entire time she is "helping" us. Wowwwww. She had NO BUSINESS being a server. Never experience a more rude server as she. Terrible.

    VIP room

    There is a lot to be said for this place. A lot of great family, entertainment and value is all here under one roof. Multiple bowling alleys available, (including a private VIP bowling alley which is where me and my party were in), a mini pool hall, and an arcade for the kids and kids at heart... we got quick service and the food was good. We had pizza and fries, and multiple type of drinks. Everything was great and we all had a good time there. They're open late so if you've never been and want to enjoy a fun night, come here with your group and chill.

    Buffalo wings with ranch
    Marleen M.

    We had such a great time here! As a matter of fact, I've been back twice since mid December. We decided to have our small office party there and did the eat and play combo. I ordered the wings and was impressed with the different sauces that they had. I got the buffalo sauce since that's always my go to and had a side of the Sriracha honey. Both sauces were 10 out of 10! The french fries are perfectly crispy and nice flavored. Service was excellent! I've come back again for the wings. Thanks for the experience! See you next time

    Very cool spot. Took my kids to the arcade, only purchased $40 worth of tokens. The games averaged between 7 to 17 tokens. Of course it wasn't enough for my two kids but they had fun. Many game selections. All working properly. Won a decent amount of tickets. Their prizes were nice, good variety. The employees are friendly and helpful. Place looked well kept. My son had previously gone with his uncle and he loved their laser tag game. We didn't eat there but it seemed liked a good place to watch a game. Great ambiance in general.

    First time here. Came here for a charitable event. The event was fun and this was a great choice to have it. The service was ok. I tried ordering drinks at the bar was ignored so I found our server in the VIP section who finally took my order. The place is clean and bright. They have an arcade and bowling lanes. Didn't try the food just had some appetizers and they were good. The VIP section felt a bit stuffy though. I noticed they brought out a fan to help cool the section off but i was sweating. Overall this place is ok. Great for events or parties.

    Friendly, welcoming door monitors! I went by on a Thursday evening when there weren't a lot of people there. I also returned that following Saturday and it wasn't bad at all. I'm thinking that people don't know what's inside yet. Clean interiors, a small restaurant though, compared to the rest of the square footage. I didn't take a look at the menu but I will do that the next time I am over that way. Plenty of activities for Adults and Children. I can't wait to bring my Grandkids back! Also, I saw that they have a Laser Tag room in the rear of the arcade area. This would be a great place to have a Birthday party. I recommend parking in the parking lot that is over by the old Sears entrance. The other side is commonly used for Barnes and Noble, AMC, and the Mall. Respectfully Reviewed.

    Came with hubby to watch Game 1 of the World Series (Dodgers vs Toronto Blue Jays) at Main Event's indoor restaurant, The Family Kitchen. Spacious and clean dining establishment with numerous large screen TV's, a bar and and lots of seating. Got the boneless chicken wings with ranch and bbq sauce on the side as well as the pizza strip board, a one and a half foot long pepperoni & cheese pan pizza with mushroom toppings and some soda for drinks. Waitress Nethalea (not sure of spelling her name) was every bit helpful and accommodating. She made sure our food arrived on time with less wait time. The Main Event also has a bowling alley, billiards, laser tag and arcade games. Perfect place for birthday parties, groups and family fun entertainment.

    Shirley Temple mocktail
    Diane A.

    This was the first time going to Main Event and it was worth it! I went there for a friend's birthday and we started off with dinner. Cheeseburger sliders and mozzarella sticks were delicious, along with a Shirley Temple mocktails drink. The arcade is spacious and was a lot of fun. I felt like I got my money's worth from the fun card I got there.

    This is a big arcade with a lot of options. We played laser tag which was the highlight. The music and lighting can be overwhelming so be ready.

    Stopped by on Saturday, 03/01/25 for the first time - this place is new and recently opened up. Played some arcade games which was super fun (car racing, ice hockey etc.). You can also play bowling and laser tag. I went to the bar and had some drinks, specifically: - 1 Tropical Rum Punch (most popular and highly recommend per the bartender) - 1 Long Island Iced Tea - 2 shots of Herradura Silver - 1 side of fries Overall a fun place for all ages.

I hate seltzers because it's like a can of carbonated water with one atom of flavor. Vile. Anyway, I am happy to report that that is *not* the case here. I could seriously toss back a bunch of these because they taste (and look) great! I had to order the Mega Man themed seltzer as a Mega Man fan (well, Mega Man X). It was blueberry lemonade and a nice blue color. I also ordered the Spyro one too, but not because I'm a fan of Spyro. I'm just a sucker for anything strawberry. Both were excellent! I also had an IPA which was honestly really good too. Regarding game play it's $10 per person for unlimited play. Although, it sounded like it was for both my friend and I at first until I paid. That's when I realized it's per person. Anyway, still great value considering how much money I would've shoved into House of the Dead 1 and 1943. The space is pretty small though. Wish they had maybe a few more games to choose from, but overall it was a great experience! I work in area exactly like where Level Up is located.

Everyone had a blast, and it truly felt like stepping back in time to relive the best moments of growing up. This membership has been one of the best investments for me and my husband--it's the ultimate getaway from the chaos of everyday life (and the kids).

The option to book the space for private events is such a game-changer! We had such a great time that I'm already planning to book another visit next week. If you're looking for an unforgettable retro gaming experience, surrounded by ART this is the place to be. I Highly recommend!

Fancy high-powered spinning and frequent gutter balls, we were squarely near the lower end of that spectrum. Different game modes on the screen included cartoons/animations of bowling pins, sea creatures, and comic book characters, which added some charm to an otherwise similar experience. At one point, the guys on the lane to the left gave us some good pointers, though I cannot say I will bowl enough to retain any of the muscle memory. All in all, a nice way to spend the evening.
