I'm glad I found it on Yelp. Now I have to check out the one in Columbus. Upon entering, a host greeted us and said he would find a table for us, and that they charge $5 per person. We stopped at the bar to order drinks, then were shown to a table. I found Yahtzee so we played that for awhile. They have sooo many board games and 2 rooms full of people at tables. A lot of the games were unknown to me. My bourbon cocktail was great, and my boyf had a draft beer. I went looking for another board game or two and someone asked me if I needed any assistance. I said we liked Yahtzee, but wanted to try something new. He said give me a few minutes and I'll bring some to you. He was so incredibly nice and sat with us to get us started on one of the games he brought. He was also very patient. He even offered to get us refills from the bar. Actually, the whole staff was really nice. I would love to come back during another Cleveland trip.

First off, my wife felt completely uncomfortable. The owner (or who i presume to be the owner) who "helped" us was staring her up and down the entire time. She felt sexualized and dirty. Instead of making a scene, we exited the establishment with the same gentleman complaining how we left his door open (when we did not btw). If you are a woman, I would suggest avoiding this place like the plague. Second, my friend asked what kind of deal would be given for buying a box of cards. The owner said he would be paying $8 a pack for the full box, same as buying singles. Most establishments would drop by a much larger amount than this. Third and finally, you can barely walk through the place. I am not a large person, but i was struggling to walk through to even browse. One time i was looking at decks of cards, and i was yelled at to get put from behind the counter. Understandable, except for the fact that the entire counter was loaded with boxes of unsold merchandise. One could not tell that it was a counter at all. Once again, I want to reiterate that this store and its owner gave us a terrible experience. It is establishments like these that give TCG's a bad name. PLEASE stay away from here!

They just opened up and they are working on a few kinks here and there but it's a great spot for parties especially if you're looking to just hang somewhere quickly after a bite to eat. They have so many different board games!!!!!! We do look forward to coming back here again.

The ambiance was beautiful, the indoor playground was beautiful, and the food was fresh. The lady who took my order got a little frustrated because she was having trouble understanding me, and she had a bit of an attitude about it. Now, normally I'll get smart right back with you, but I let it slide. Another young lady stepped in to help -- she understood me perfectly, was polite, and extremely nice. To her credit, the first lady did apologize at the end and said sorry she couldn't understand me. I respect that. Everything else was amazing. They've even got a sweet shop upstairs for ice cream, but we ran over on time and it closed at 6. So we left and took the grandkids to Honey Hut instead before heading home. We had a great time.

Now that they mandated the $10 a child it's not too packed and they can play freely . The play gym is so cute with sensory and imaginary play. It's kept clean as well as the tables and food area. It's big enough for the littles to have fun but small enough to where the parents can still have a good view of them without having to enter and follow them around . The Slavic /American cuisine is one of my Favorite parts. The dumplings are incredible and authentic. For the littles they also have all the normal American cuisine options the littles love like pizza, chicken nuggets, fries and a lot of other options. The macarons and desserts set this cafe apart because of how high quality they are. You can tell the macarons are home made. Delicious. We love coming here !

I enjoyed my first visit to Doki Doki Kawaii Shop in early May 2026. A friend had invited me a few hours before she was heading out there so I gladly met her there. The shop has plenty of Asian inspired things. I saw a bunch of manga comic books, Pokémon items, Japanese stationery items (notebooks, highlighters, pens, etc), plushy toys, keychains, etc. I bought a cute 100-day notebook that was light green on the outside. It can be used as a planner or a diary. I can't wait to delve into it and maybe use it to track a goal or two for 2026. The store employee was friendly when I walked in and answered some questions that I had. I wish they sold more stationery items. They had a limited supply of planners and notebooks of different varieties. I will definitely visit again to browse more Japanese stationery. **** GOAL of 250 reviews in 2026 - 74/250 total reviews in 2026 - 915 total Yelp reviews - Reviewed on 11 May 2026

I believed they opened their store in November 2025. My friend Christina and I stopped by in mid-March 2026 to browse books as we waited for our dinner reservation next door at Amba. BOOKS/OTHER -- There are 2 levels of books to browse with the upstairs filled with used books and downstairs containing new books. I bought two used books for $6 each - one is titled Disgrace and the other is titled Sapiens: A brief history of humankind. I haven't read these 2 books yet but I am excited to later this year. Besides books, I noticed other items for sale such as some cute handbags (small tote bags with jewelry or charms on them) and t-shirts. FANTASY/SCIENCE FICTION -- They offer a wide selection of fantasy and sci-fi books which my friend Christina appreciated which is her genre. I don't read fantasy or science fiction books so I can't comment on that but I did notice some Andy Weir books on the shelf, including, Project Hail Mary, which I only know about because of the movie that was recently released. SERVICE (5/5) -- Top notch service. My friend and I were greeted upon walking into the bookstore by the owner, Craig, who was very nice and helpful. While they don't seem to have a large selection of non-fantasy and sci-if books, I still recommend visiting this bookstore if you enjoy reading, want to explore a new genre such as fantasy, or are just in the area and need something to do. I certainly will be back to browse more books. **** GOAL of 250 reviews in 2026 - 16/250 total reviews in 2026 - 857 total Yelp reviews - Reviewed on 13 April 2026
