My family and I are currently in our bowling era right now so I decided to check out round1 at Meadowood Mall for my birthday. Overall, it was a fun experience. But with a few things worth noting. First, the bowling area only has a few lanes. But honestly, that ended up being something I liked. It felt more low key and less crowded than the big blowing alleys. The ball returned was super fast (love that for me) The couches were roomy and comfortable...perfect for hanging out between frames. The downside? You do have to walk through the arcade to get to the bowling section, which isn't my favorite set up. It's also really noisy inside, so if you're looking for a calm bowling vibe, this might not be the place. Still for a quick bowling session, it checked all the boxes. read more

Round1 Bowling & Arcade - Reno - Arcades Near Me - Reno, Nevada

The arcade is quite large with a good variety of games with probably the best assortment of DDR and crane machine games in Reno, you just can't beat a 99 cent ice cream cone that gets you in the door, and the bathrooms are the best in the mall. On the flip side, the play cost is higher than your average arcade, many of the machines are out of order, the staff is a little bit absent, and the ticket values aren't great if you're looking for prizes. read more

We found ourselves at Round 1's Food Court again; when we arrived, the booths were full of customers but after we placed our order, we returned to the booths to find the other customers have vacated and one of the employees had cleaned all the booths. We waited for our orders: two hot fudge sundaes, a large order of chicken karaage and a couple of drinks. The staff were very helpful and patient, they helped us to place our order on the kiosk and were super-fast processing our order, we waited for the food, treats and drinks with minimal amount of wait-time. The sundae portions were very generous: two heaping scoops of ices cream, a mountain of whipped cream and chocolate sauce plus a cherry on top. The large order of the fried (chicken) karaage was very tasty and the portion was large enough for 3 people to share. Everything about our visit was positive: the food, the service, the price, even the ambiance; we thoroughly enjoyed our dining experience. read more

3/6/26 came in for the first time. Place was clean, staff was friendly. The bartender was doing a great job that night, customers were being rude to her and she was very polite and professional. Definitely would recommend to others and will be back read more

Round1 Bowling & Arcade - Reno - Bartender dealing with rude customers - Arcades Near Me - Reno, Nevada

I love this place! One of the most fun ways to get anime and anime related things and figures! "Most" of the machines are winnable, others absolutely have that classic play-certain-amount-of-times-before-prize-is-possible going on, but the majority are pretty skill based! The staff is pretty cool most of the time, especially when you're winning a lot and have to keep coming up to grab them for your prize. I haven't seen him in a while but the best person I've had the enjoyment of talking with is the Dimitri guy, very brightly colored and bubbly/friendly. The atmosphere is almost always friendly, they have a gender neutral/family bathroom as well. They serve the usual food and snacks but with an alcohol bar to boot. All this on-top of the bowling, so there's a little something for everyone. read more

Round1 Bowling & Arcade - Reno - Arcades Near Me - Reno, Nevada

This review is for the Round 1 birthday parties. The staff is not super helpful and once they deliver your food and drinks, they do not check up on you. I had to wait for everything.. extra plates, exra napkins.. also if you order extra pizza, that also takes some time and it's extra regardless if you get the extra game cards that come with the pizza. One of their staff Matt helped obtain extra game cards; however, he was not very friendly and the wait took forever... Multiple staff were unable to help activate new cards too. Also, it's worthy to note that when you get the unlimited game play with 2 player cards, if you have little ones, they tend to lose their second card with their 500 tickets. This happened to a few of our party guests kids, including my son, the birthday boy. Additionally, the 20 credits doesn't go far when some games are 15 credits.. definitely a limited "unlimited". I do not recommend having a kids party here. read more

Walking into the place you think: "this is going to be EPIC!" Then you hunt down a staff member (probably because they only have four of them) and you realize quickly that you're dealing with kids running amok. The general manager is filling alcohol bottles with water. The place is a sticky mess. The food is frozen packaged garbage. There's no bartender, no servers. Why would you even have a kitchen? Seriously, clean out the crew and staff the place with the right people. You might get more than two and a half stars. read more

Lots and lots of claw machines here! The staff was super nice and helpful when we needed a readjustment. After a couple of failed attempts, this one really nice worker placed the plushy where it was a super easy win. She even tested the claw machine to make sure it was winnable for us. She literally gave it to us on a silver platter. This Round 1 was super clean (including their bathroom) and had lots of other games as well. read more

Fun as always, havent tried the food, people that work there seemed nice. No problem so far

Me and my friends came here and had such a great experience with Jessica!! She was super helpful and really added to our great time, great service from her. read more

Stupied asf there's nothing that says no smoking inside other then the waiver that they make you sign we were there celebrating a birthday and didn't get no kind of warning or anything just got kicked out no refund don't recommend going here read more

The customer service here is great, as the manager helped us make sure that the faulty crane machine did not eat our credits and took the time to show the breakdown of points to us. The lady that we purchased our $5 annual membership from and the lady she was with was incredibly nice and helpful as well. I'm only giving it three stars because the claw machines here are much more loose than before. The grab function doesn't seem to work too well for some machines. Selection wasn't too bad, but I wish they had less of the round yellow pillows that you have to grab in order to win a prize. Also, I found out they plan on removing Crazy Tower at this location, which makes me really sad because it's one of my favorite games. I hope they don't end up removing it. read more

It's a nice arcade but they've gotten a little comfortable. Owners used to come and switch arcade machines often to make it more interesting believe it or not. There was different games every month or so! I stopped going cause you end up playing the same games over and over. Even my kids are bored. Nothing new and it's kind of disappointing. Funny thing is the place is packed with people most of the time! Don't be greedy Round One!! Spend on new arcade games and cooler stuffed animals we all know you got the cash for it!! We are bored!! read more

If I could give this place 0 stars I would in a heartbeat. The customer service is absolutely atrocious, every single time we come in. It is to the point where we will no longer be coming here or recommending this place to anyone. The food is overpriced and subpar for the cost. The overall vibe of the place is musty and full of extremely unprofessional staff. Every single employee here is rude, un-empathetic, and has zero common sense when it comes to customer service. I would highly reccomend never wasting your money here. read more

I came here with my roommates and their kid to have lunch, play the games, and watch the Seahawks-Niners game after deciding not to wait at another place for an open table. There was no such wait here and it would soon be evident why. From having to place to order ourselves to the quality of the food, or experience was VERY subpar. The crew seemed very unaware of customers that were waiting to be helped. Furthermore, they weren't willing to fulfill requests for channel changes. I found this to be annoying seeing as it was the first week of the NFL season. Also for the prices, the games simply weren't worth it. With the new competition here in Reno, this establishment will need to improve greatly to not only remain open, but be competitive. read more

We just got back from Japan! And we're like why have we not been here. There's a ton of games and claws. As well as bowling. It is kinda pricey compared to Japan. Best part is the food court that has a ton of Japanese food and $.99 ice cream! read more

Always a good time, but can become very expensive. This place is like a Dave and Busters minus the full restaurant and bar. While this place does have food, it's more finger food, beers and spirits. The game card is $2.00 to start and the games are anywhere from 6 credits to 12 credits depending on the game. The video and pinball games may be cheaper to play, but I'm not into those. We usually play the games to win tokens. Who doesn't love taking home an overpriced toy? The money/ credits for the games is odd. The more you buy in, the more bonus credits you get. I wish I took a picture of the credits information. Once you have enough tickets, you can buy items from their redemption store. This is a Japanese based company and a lot of their prizes are Japanese brands. There are a lot of coin pushers and plushie claw machines here which I enjoy. I've seen people bowling and playing pool, but never looked into those activities. read more

I hate how every Roud1 location you have to get a new card. This is the biggest Roud1 o ever been too. The workers here are nice and friendly. Wasn't as busy as I thought it would be. Super clean as well. read more

Fun place and lots of variety of games. I love the time play, for $10 you can get a card that allows an hour of play on certain games. Pinball is one, so I was stoked about that. None of the ticketed games are part of the time play, so if you want to get prizes with tickets, you can't use the time play card. They have different package value for card that have credits and you can play all games. Their food looks good, but we didn't have any. We got ice cream for only .99 cents and that was really good. read more

don't waste your money here Went here with a group of friends to celebrate my birthday called ahead of time to confirm they close at 2am which I was told is correct we got there at 12:40am and security guard wouldn't let one friend in the group inside due to the bar which was CLOSED! Finally able to get in and paid over $100 to bowl till they closed and was rudely interrupted by an employee at 1:40am and kicked us out because they were closed in the middle of our games without explanation when asked why he walked away from us mind you we still had 15-20 minutes left very unprofessional definitely will spend our money else where read more

My hubby and I dropped in tonight to play a few games (we're big kids at heart). Easy to find staff and managers to reset games and troubleshoot if prizes were stuck. Everyone was so friendly and nice. Great selection of prizes and staff were constantly restocking machines. We won big! Large and small Miffys, Hello Kitty, and backpack dinosaurs. We had so much fun!! Definitely will be back. read more

Men's bathroom is a disaster. Urinals, sinks, and water bottle filler have been broken for months.

We celebrated my daughters 1st birthday here. It was great, her and my nephew were the only little ones there, the rest of our party were adult kids and we all had a great time with bowling and the arcade games! Food was good too! We'll definitely come back here when we're back in Reno and as our little girl gets older so she can play more games! read more

Honestly don't know why some people are post negative comments here about Round1. Never seen malfunctioning machine, never saw the bowling lanes closed nor have I ever got disappointed or sick with their food offerings. But I have seen some trashy people acting like idiots around the gaming machines, people clearly drunk or high on something, and otherwise people who thinks this is a Downtown casino and thinks they can act like idiots. Fortunately, security usually does a pretty good job in keeping out the unwashed and actually lets people have fun. I'm beginning to think it's a customer problem and not the facility or employees problem. read more

This place is so fun to go as a family - the kids had an absolute blast playing with all of the games here. We went on a Sunday and it was fairly busy. Great idea for a family outing - bowling is so much fun too! read more

It's so surreal entering and playing at an arcade during covid times and Round 1 was probably the best it could be in terms of safety, comfort, and a large variety of activities and games. Although we recently visited on a Friday evening, there wasn't really a crowd present so it felt comfortable to browse the games. For the arcade, you are required to use a tap card to pay for games. It costs $10 at the minimum (with $2 being taken out for the card itself), so a quick go-around will get you $8 of play credit. I spent $6 of that on one of their purikura machines which was straight up imported from Japan - everything was in Nihongo. It was fun to reminisce over former Japan days and goof around decorating your pictures. Although it felt steep, I've seen these photo booths be upwards of $10 per set in LA. My true love at Round 1 was the fact that they have the two latest DDR releases available, which blew my mind. Although the latest release was not available to play (card reader was deactivated), the other machine was and I gotta say - cabinet looked sleek, pads were very responsive, and it looks like they kept it well up to date. A few songs in and I felt like I was in high school again- I still somewhat got it. If the other machine were on and perhaps easier to get help to turn on certain cabinets, I would've given them another star. It was still a good time overall so thank you Round 1 for a fun little evening! read more

We came for a karaoke night and had a really fun time! I'd never been here so I wasn't sure what to expect, but this place has it all! Sensory overload. The rates are decent for how much space they give you. Food options are pretty standard (mostly fried), but affordable. Beers and other adult bevys are decently priced. I have a few complaints, only because they would greatly improved the experience. 1) You have to leave your room to go order food, then you have to wait for it and take it back to the room. If they offered a QR code system for ordering and delivering the food and drinks it would give you more time back to enjoy the room you paid for. 2)A better system of notifying you if there is a wait list for rooms. We wanted to extend our time and it was not an easy process and kind of took away from the fun. 3) There was no trash can or napkins or water or anything in our room. If they provide it, it would make for a more welcoming experience, like they actually want you to stay and hangout. "Stay a while" vibes. The staff was all super helpful, especially Noah. We had some tech issues and they were helpful in troubleshooting to fix it with us. Ed was fun and friendly too. Thanks for being so great! read more

I was excited that we got a Round one in Reno and my previous review reflected that. Now however they only get two stars because what the facility was clean, I felt slighted cuz they got rid of the last of what I would play which were the pinball machines. Little pinball Pac-Man and pizza would be great. But oh no they can't do that they have to fill it up with all claw machines filled with Japanese anime toys that appeal to 20 something losers. I understand that price redemption is king now but would it kill them to have like Pac-Man, Popeye, pinball for us old timers? So yeah whenever somebody in my family decides to have a birthday party or they want to go to round one I'm going to stay away because obviously I'm not their target demographic anymore so they don't need my money apparently read more

Nicole's service was excellent. There was a game that mistakenly took double the credits and Nicole helped us retrieve the credits back immediately. Made our trip to Round 1 :) read more

Worst customer service, bowling lanes didn't work properly, menu screen wasn't up in "snack bar", the chips were stale and nacho cheese was questionable, the games didn't work right and were too expensive for 30 seconds of play, paid for the air hockey table and no puck came out. Literally every experience I had here was poor. Facility is beautiful and has so much potential, but execution couldn't have been worse. @ericsoto @matt Update: 5/6 people I was with ended up coming down with a significant stomach bug for the 24-48 hours following our visit here. Shouldn't have eaten those nachos after all... read more

They do not pay their employees or teach them how to clock in. And when pay day comes they end up getting no or little pay. This is a Chinese company that is trash. Sure it may be fun to play games there but just know every thing you are paying for is not going to the lower level employees. All going to management and corporate. What a shit company. And the health codes for the food is absolutely ridiculous. They need to be shut down or immediately revamped into a better company. read more

I absolutely LOVE these round1 arcades! We have one in Oregon that we go to and the card worked at this location. The games are always great and fun and always something we have never done before. If you like arcades you will love these. So much better than Dave and Busters imo! read more

Finally gave this place a shot and well unfortunately it will be the last. For one, it's impossible to get a bowling lane at any time of the day. Secondly, the arcade games are outrageously priced. Compared to the coconut bowl, a swipe on a Round 1 machine is 12-14 for 1 play. These same games at the coconut bowl are 4-6 credits. Also there pay to play cards are the highest I've seen. read more

We came here to celebrate our sons birthday. They have different packages depending on amount of tickets. All of the games were working and if there were any issues they fixed it right away. They have bowling and a food court as well. Only downfall a lot of food wasnt available due to shortage which wasnt their fault. Valencia at the food counter was amazing. She made sure our orders were right and was working so hard but kept a smile and generous tone the whole time. We all enjoyed our time here and will be back. Thank you Valencia for working so hard and being so kind! read more

Round1 is open in Meadowood Mall! It was very easy to spot from the outside coming in with the giant bowling pins. If you're coming in from the mall, the entrance is right next to the food court. There are 2 karaoke rooms, 10 bowling lanes, a few billiard tables, and a large arcade area. Also, they have an area where you can order food like pizza, burgers, etc. There are multiple places that you can order food from, either from the counter or the kiosks nearby. They have .99 ice cream cones! But they only have 8 flavors. The bar isn't open yet but they advertise 1.99 beers! I recommend joining their membership. It's only 6 dollars a year and you get a dollar off various activities. Today, we did bowling and played some claw machines. The bowling was pretty fun! They kept things interesting with their monthly challenges and moonlight strike event. My boyfriend won a bag, but they had other prizes like a t-shirt too. The bowling balls looked nice - it had a basketball looking pattern on them. The claw machines had so many cute plushies! If it gets put out of place, you can always request a staff member to reset it. We didn't win any, however our friend knocked a plushie down, and it's tail hooked on to the bar! They wouldn't let us have it since it wasn't all the way down. That was sorta bull since only the tail was sticking out. He had to swipe again to push it down. Other than that, it was a fun experience and we will probably be back to check out all the games and karaoke. read more

I have a Round 1 Club Card Membership because my fiancé and I are ridiculously addicted to this place. This arcade is legit. They have a Japanese arcade station and a Japanese crane games (which are different and challenging). But their stuffed toys are nice quality and ridiculously cute. I've looked up their stuffed toys and are quite pricy. Yes, you get your money worth if you do win but it's totally worth it! Their prize store is awesome (lots of options and most of their stuff are from Japan)! And the nice thing about this place that happened to me twice already, is if you see on the card machine it lights up red something about unclaimed tickets, let them know and they'll have someone swipe it so the tickets get loaded onto your card. So if anyone tries to play the game I was playing, they can't and can't steal my tickets because I swiped it and they have to have someone swipe it for them to make it clear which loads on my card regardless, so you don't have to worry. I have to try their bowling and karaoke here because I haven't yet and it looks really fun, I'm just super addicted to winning tickets (lol). This place I personally think is a lot more fun than Circus Circus or any other arcades I've gone to here in Reno. read more

Okay. So the hype about this place was definitely real. Imagine a place that not only caters to the kids but also the adults inner-child as well! Well, this place delivers on all of that and some. Japanese owned Round1USA creates magic in so many ways with a clean, exciting environment. Dance games, shooters, racing, and everything in between await your. Not to mention... redemption games that will make you go broke but imagine the rewards later... their redemption store is INSANE!!!! From the small to the elaborate praises, they have them. And PLUSHIES - OMG THE PLUSHIES!!!!! Something for everyone there. Be prepared to try again unless you know the secret to winning like one lucky guy I saw. Bowling lanes look awesome. Balls are neat with plenty of color and basketball themes on them. And you can order food right there to the lane you're on at the Haney kiosk. You can do the digital membership through their app for $6 which makes your experience cheapest for repeat visits. Or you can get a card there. I can't wait to come back and really play and make of it a fun date with my wife too! Come and visit. Have fun! Relax! And be a kid! read more
