    I dropped by The Tailgate last Friday night, looking forward to "making a night out of it" watching the Notre Dame, IU games and enjoying the Karaoke. I have visited The Tailgate on several previous occasions, enjoying the quality food, drink specials and overall atmosphere. But last Friday night was not one of those times. The wait staff was apparently overwhelmed by the size or number of customers as it took 20 minutes to request the two items (onions and cheese) that were left off the Traditional Tailgator burger that was ordered. And another 25 minutes to ( for the second time) get the correct slice of cheese. At this point, the burger and fries were cold, the bun was stale. I left the food uneaten. I requested and paid the check, essentially paying $10 for a diet coke with a refill. Extremely disappointed. Took the rest of my night's business to BW3's. I believe there were three possible resolutions that were available to the wait staff, the worst of which (from a customer's viewpoint) was taken. I'm not inclined to reward sub par service or quality. Just thought you might wanna know.

    My husband and I used a Groupon. We wanted to try something on our side of town. We were pleasantly surprised because Wednesday's they have DJ Bingo and $2 well drinks. Double thumbs up! Unfortunately, we walked in and immediately noticed the air conditioning wasn't working properly. They had ceiling fans and other fans, but that's not AC. We ordered a few mix drinks while playing bingo which was good. My husband ordered a burger & fries which he enjoyed. I ordered a breaded chicken sandwich with fries which was average. Summary-Great happy hour drink specials, fun DJ Bingo, subpar food, and no AC.

    Karaoke is awesome and the food and service is awesome!

    See all

    I went with my daughter and grandson. It was my first time at a Dave and Busters. It's loud and…read morechaotic and it's hard to hear conversation in between the noise. It is overwhelming at first for anyone who has noise sensitivity and sensory issues, but eventually you can somewhat get used to it. My daughter bought an upgraded game card for an hour and 1/2 of game 'unlimited' game play. The caveat was that we could only play the blue games. The games lagged a bit when they were activated. I think for the amount of money you can drop in that place, game cards should be open and unlimited to all of the games. The place was pretty busy so it looks like they're making money and they're not hurting. Part of the game card deal is that you get an appetizer as part of the deal. If you pay a bit extra you can upgrade to getting one entrée. We sat down at the restaurant and ate, and the food was OK. We had a chicken fettuccine meal and some fries. The amount that you get is average for the price and I would give it a 7 on a 10 scale for quality and flavor. It was served warm, but not quite hot enough. The staff and service was attentive and friendly and accommodating. It appeared that they were more than well staffed because they had quite a few employees working especially in the restaurant bar area. They could've used some more people over at the ticket redemption section. There was a line that was backed up for people redeeming their tickets or points. I would go back and hang out there, I just wish it wasn't so pricey. It would also be cool if they could incorporate more varied games. Pinball comes to mind as one option. It's one of those places that you just go to once in awhile if you can afford it. I didn't look into the party option or price point.

    We came during a special event it was 90 minutes of play plus dinner, an appetizer, two entrées and…read morea dessert which is a pretty good deal for $60 a person. The service was quick. The server was very attentive even when making a mistake she quickly corrected it and did an outstanding job. The seating is kind of unpleasant when there's so many TVs as bright as they are, but the ones were on, so we'll give them a pass on that one. Overall the facility in the dining area is relatively clean, but the play area is not. By the rewards or prize area it smells like sewage very disgusting considering the bathrooms are right there. They also did not have the human crane up, which was also a disappointment as previously advertised. They also do not tell you that they cap out the tickets at 1500 on unlimited play which was kind of disappointing, considering we were really hitting jackpots that night. Everything is extremely expensive such as games and cost per game.
