Food was ok but the service was below average. Barely saw our waitress and felt that as soon as we said we weren’t ordering alcohol we were ignored.

Came for the bowling but the food was surprisingly very good! We were a group of 9 and everyone loved their food, just one of us had the shrimp roll which was too heavy on the mayo. But everything else was delicious - the shrimp tacos, the salads, hot smoked bacon burger, poke. Would come back again!

Fun evening and place. But be prepared. Superoverpriced. $120 for an hour of bowling is steep even with postCOVID inflation. Plus need to still pay to rent bowling shoes on top of that $5pp. Beware, payment is made prior to stating, before I even took off my coat. Plus the now usual option of 18-20or22% tip. Which I did. Not sure why. Yes we are in a tip everybody all the time culture, but will gladly do so after we order our food and drink and see how the service is. And tip on that. Lastly, they really mean an hour. We had rented 2 lanes for 11 people. ($350 after tax and tip and shoes) and they literally shut down our lanes in the 10th frame with 2 bowlers left to finish their game on each lane. No parties were booked in the lane after us and the lanes remained empty after we left. Long story short. Super pricey. Expectation to tip for service. Which in the end we did not even receive. This is definitely not an “I want to speak to the manager” situation. But definitely won’t be back.

Service was terrible. From the start the hostess was giving attitude and rude when we walked in. Our waitress messed up our bill 4x. Never checked on us during our dinner and we were constantly waiting on her the whole time. Otherwise the food was good. Crap dip, dry ribs and bees pizza was great.
