Dave & Buster's Arcadia - Santa Anita

Recently upgraded the entire place a ton. Very clean, lively and tons of fun. Game and food package options are definitely worth the cost. Food came out at the same time for our entire party of 8. Burgers were very flavorful, boneless wings were generous in portion. All the plates had a good amount of fries and the pretzel sticks were yummy to hold us over. Server was attentive and checked on us as needed. The new layout is spacious and we really enjoyed our most recent visit.

Sam was very friendly, attentive and provided excellent service. She brought me a second round of water before my first was about to run out and brought my food out quickly. The kitchen staff has always been great at this Dave and Buster's Arcadia. The opening shift manager Rodrigo I believe was prompt, friendly and provided quick service during check out. My go-to order are the Salmon and Steak Protein bowls and at this trip I also ordered the Birria quesadilla which was delicious! Great job!

I usually don't like noisy places like this ?? however it was a lot of fun and I had a lot of room to move around. I lost my phone and one of the workers was nice enough to help me and we found it in about 5 minutes ?? Food was excellent and a good variety of games for all ages to enjoy ! Parking is a bit tricky because it is in a mall. I would definitely go back ??

4/19/25 Finally hit lvl 9 & redeemed my 160,000 tickets for a PS5! This place is always a blast. Always hope to catch the homie working. Come with a date or a group of friends and play some games! Enjoy some food and drinks ?? and watch some sports. Glad they added the Jello shots at the bar. They have done some renovations, updated menu items and added some new games this past year. The bar in the back only makes mixed drinks and has canned beers. Draft beer only in the front bar. Staff is friendly. Be pa

I'm writing to express my serious concerns after visiting the Arcadia Dave & Buster?s. What should?ve been a fun and casual night out turned into an uncomfortable and frustrating experience due to poor service and questionable treatment that needs to be addressed. Upon arrival, my friend and I sat ourselves, as is the norm. After waiting quite a while without being acknowledged or served, we got up and went to the bar to try and place our order. Still, no one assisted us. Meanwhile, we noticed a server hel

Went there to attend a birthday party. I was very impressed with the whole party setup. The service, was especially good. They had two workers who were constantly taking care of everything and a third would show up to help occasionally. Very well organized by Dave & Busters. They had separate catered food setup for the kids and one for the adults. The food was very good. I didn't take part in the game area or the regular dining area, only the party section.

Been coming here for almost 5 Years so I would like to post a really good review. The crowd is friendly and ambience great, waiters always come around asking how we are doing. They have new games and brand new stock of bees at D&Bs Tapstation. We regularly order the pitcher that now comes in a Tower. Really cold beer if I might say. However the tower that we ordered was 2 liters but the beer bubbles are at the 2 liter line. I was hesitant about complaining about it but luckily one of the managers swung by a

Lots of new games but prices also went up. There's no Eat and Play but Mon-Thur they have half off all food. Always come Wednesday because the games are half off. Food is alright, I feel portions are smaller because it's half off. A full order of wings was like 7 wings. Seeks weak! The Angry Birds coin pusher is pretty fun. Remember to always clear out the tower! It's a ton of tickets.

Not a place I come again. Self seating, but that's very unclear. Seat yourself? Uh, and you want a tip? Host and service staff are invisible. You can get a seat easily because it's mostly empty Not sure how much longer it'll be around. This place was big in the 90s, but it's nowhere near it past glory days. I'd recommend the Cheesecake Factory next door.

Food was great h Got the fish and chips the fish is tender and juicy while the breaded part is crunchy, also got strawberry lemonade. The games are fun and I'm not old enough to drink but the bar looked productive and social.

Marcos is an outstanding manager! The whole staff under him is friendly and helpful. They take pride in delivering excellent service! The food and beverage service was high quality! From all the places to have family fun, the Dave and Buster in Arcadia surpasses all expectations! This is the cleanest, most friendly, welcoming DNB! Thank you for creating such a great experience!

I haven't been to D&B for a while, they're usually pretty good,went for Father's Day recently & it was my father's first time. Unfortunately, he didn't get to really try things out, the service was absolutely terrible, & it wasn't even hectic. Most of the staff was lackadaisical and inattentive. Most of the staff seemed to carry a 'not my job, not my problem' mentality. We came around 2pm & sat in the eating section near the bar, there were only 3 other families there in that particular section, but it look

The bartenders are very attentive and personable, but one of the security guards is very unprofessional and rude. When it approached midnight and the bar was closing, we asked security if we could use the restroom before we left, and got an okay. On the way out toward leaving, my friend was looking at one of the game room amenities for no longer than a few *seconds* when the security person started raising his voice and angrily yelling at us that they're closed. I channeled my managerial experience to diffu

I am writing this post a bit prematurely but will update it once I return. This place is currently going through construction and kind of gives you a rough look. Didn't order food or drinks, so I can't accurately rate that part. The games have options for both young kids and adults. A lot of the games had issues, like the hungry hippos. There's a mini basketball game where you have to hit the ball to shoot the mini balls up. The one on the left didn't work. The prices are ridiculous and expensive.

Fun place to eat & have some drinks. Food is good. Service is great. I ordered the dangerous waters island punch and my husband the electric blue tini we shared stay salty pretzel sticks.

Outstanding upgrades done to the place. Everything is well-lit and clean. They've added more games and more areas to be able to host groups. The games are all fun to play for children and adults. The prize store also has a great selection of items to redeem your points.

I went here with my students for their $10 Power card, eat, drink, and play combo for $20! And I was surprised how good the two kinds of pepperoni flat bread pizza were as well as their smashed cheese burger with fries. All you can drink fountain drink was included. It's a really good deal. I will go back. Staff was friendly and attentive. They gave some good games as well.

We had my son?s birthday party here and it was absolutely AMAZING! Our hostess, Lily Chavez, was beyond phenomenal! She went above and beyond to make sure every single guest was taken care of and helped make my son?s party so special and unforgettable. Her energy, attentiveness, and genuine care made all the difference. Thank you so much, Lily ? you truly raised the bar and made this a celebration we'll always remember

This place is always busy and super noisy. Tons of big screens with sports on. Tons of games to play including digital darts. The food is a little pricey but tastes very good. The drinks are pricey and a bit overrated. Overall it's a party atmosphere.

OUR SERVER WAS EXCELLENT! WE WERE THERE TO CELEBRATE MY SON'S 21ST BIRTHDAY HE WENT ABOVE AND BEYOND TO MAKE HIS GREAT! THANK YOU I FORGOT YOUR NAME BUT WE NEED MORE OF YOU APPRECIATE YOU -*REPLYING BACK TO THE COMMENT FROM DAVE & BUSTERS, YES THE SERVER WAS EXCELLENT & YES 4STARS NOT EVERYTHING AS HIS SERVICE BUT SINCE YOU ASKED WHY 4? HERE YOU GO THE MENUS & TABLES WERE STICKY & NOT AS CLEAN SOME OF THE GAME MACHINES MY KIDS DID WANTED TO PLAY DIDN'T WORK BATHROOM WERE NOT AS CLEAN LIKE THE TABLES & MEN

This was our first visit here after the remodel. We come here all the time to this location. Came to watch a sporting event on a Saturday evening. Pros: furniture and dining atmosphere looked like a good upgrade, games area have new games as well as prior favorites and this time ALL the games were working unlike before when it was a toss up and you had to go hunt a worker to come help you, we liked the addition of food items and revamped menu, we liked the flatbread pizza and wings and fried pickles quality

This was the best experience I ever had. A male employee became very nice and gave me all the exact orders. And I wish I can give this location 6 stars.

The service is slow, customers service is bad, security states people down and lastly very unsanitary. I was about to drink the last of my drink and notice debris. I confronted the staff and the guy just returned to his duty. No type of customer service, not even a sorry or let me replace that. Yet all the people that comment bad is not showed. It's all censored because they are a big ?corporation? that's wrong especially the same security is still there. My son left a review because a security was being ph

Celebrated a birthday with family early on a Sunday morning and the service was so kind and attentive. The kids had a blast, we got there early before it got packed. It was very clean which is a big plus.

I had a pleasant time with my friends. Great atmosphere, service, and cleanliness. The bartender (Roger) was so kind and made great drinks.

Celebrating my daughters birthday ?? First time here! Hard time getting a table?? too pricey the burger was alright the fries were nasty

So fun if you are exclusively going to play games! Food wise it's not it. The burgers and sandwiches are super charred to the point that you cannot taste anything else. The wings are dry. When I ordered it took over 40 minutes to be served, the restaurant was not crowded. The restrooms did not have any paper towels. I asked for extra ranch and I did get that very quickly and got a huge amount of it!! So the service wasn't terrible. The game section was huge and very clean. 100% recommend but just for the ga

If I could put 0 I would. First off, we didn't have a waiter or waitress and waited about 30 minutes before anyone came over. Drinks took even longer than 30 mins. Finally got my kids orange juice and it had something mixed with it, swear it was alcohol but can't be too positive. We finally got our food and every single item that we ordered had something wrong with it. In total, I'd say we were there for about 2 hours and there weren't many people there when we arrived, now I will admit it wasn't empty, so

I always come here whenever I want to have a good time with my girlfriend. The bartenders are always top notch - the food is always delicious! I've been coming here for a few years now, don't go to the Hollywood location. This one is by far way better??????????

Great place for family and friends. Spend $60 for games and my kids enjoyed their time. The machines and games are modern and entertaining. Good place to spend for few hours and then walk the mall and eat. Lots of choices to do in the venue and around.

Daniel, is an amazing worker for Dave and Busters. Dave and busters need to hand him more hours, free food, free games for his guests, and a promotion. He has amazing customer Service. Greeted my family with a big smile and served Us really Well. Coming back because of him

We threw our child's 10th birthday here. Service and employees were terrific and friendly. Service for our party was great, we had 2 servers assigned to us and they both were professional and friendly. Gaming area was big and had plenty to do for any age. What sold us on this location was food included with party package, as most places don't include food or it's super expensive add on. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here. Highly recommend having a party here earlier in the day as it gets really busy and pa

I had the luxury of having great service by Jesus"Chewy." Food was good. Overall, it was a good experience.

The service was extremely friendly and went out of their way to make sure the experience was perfect. I forgot to clarify an allergy and had to send some food back our server killian was very understanding and Danny came out to check everything was perfect afterwards. 10/10 will come back

The best way to describe the place is a crossover between a sports bar and an arcade. The food here is pub grub. It's a nice place for a celebration or to hang out with a large group. Wouldn't go there for a quick bite. Service is a little subpar. It can get busy, and the servers do get a little overwhelmed.

Recent renovations look very nice. Games are way too overpriced, but had been like that for years. They always have some type of deals going on for food. Half price Wednesdays for games are awesome but with kids in the middle of the week can be challenging. The app is cool now too offering rewards for games played. It's nice too that you can earn points for money spent on food.

We enjoyed the food and love the arcade here. This place is great for party, meeting, family gathering and watch sports. Bartenders, especially Oscar, Mike, Matt, Marcus ( wow, he remembered our name) and Managers were provided awesome service. Highly recommeded ??

Chewy is one of a kind! Dude really makes the Arcadia store pop. One day that man is serving, the next he's managing and the following day he's on the mic promoting Football Sunday with raffles and stein contests. What can't this man do. I don't know how much they are paying him but he needs a raise. He is the face of that store and I will be coming back as long as he's there !

Big shout out to the manager, Marcus!!! We went to go watch the NFL semifinal and Marcus was super nice with us, was very hard-working going around helping out everybody and just such good overall energy!!! We need more people like him in this world!!!

Food was bland. Basically microwave looking food made by youngsters. Kids pizza and cheeseburger were sad looking. My Cesar salad was drenched in dressing I couldn't eat it. Look at their nachos and of course expensive. Eat definitely before coming here. Games are fun big.

This place is awesome! Super clean, fun atmosphere and great place to go on a date or celebrate with family and friends. The Sky Lounge at the top is a great place to host a private event.

Man oh man where do I start?? Firstly the drinks and food were amazzzingg We got the wings bone in lemon pepper and garlic Parmesan truffle fries Wings were so soft juicy and crispy???? I don't think I've ever had them this way Also our server Richard was quick to take care of us. we didn't wait long for food and drinks Will be coming back to this location now

Cindy was an amazing bartender, will be back because of her ONLY. Nothing else from this restaurant stood out besides her. Professional and friendly. Made my experience fantastic. We need more cindeys in this world

First time at this specific location N had a surprisingly good time atmosphere was great positive vibes..a Big location great fun games to play 2 bars one in the roof which is a great place to watch sports and enjoy the bar or have a table with friends on the roof have a cigarette or a cigar... overall great place to take a date or have a birthday party or just hangs with friends enjoy sports on many many Tv's great food and drinks

In the beginning my service sucks, but luckily for me, I got a new waitress and damb.. party time, this guy give us a Great service. He a Top of the line.. Marcus's Cuklimings is his Name, given him a Good Tip.

Man this was a nice Dave n busters had a good time with my family and friends. To bad the roof was closed but I really enjoyed myself here with my son and family. Way nicer than the one in ontario...

We came in with a party of 13 people and were immediately seated.. Our server seemed overworked. They should have had 2 servers helping us since we had such a large party. It took a long time just to get our drinks and once we ordered our food half of us were helped and the other half had to wait. It also was difficult getting everyone their meals at the same time. Some of us got served about 20 minutes after the others. There was also quite a few mixed ups with The orders. It's a very small menu with not t

Great place to have a great time with family. Can watch a game and food is delicious. Service fast and friendly.

Came here for my birthday, Melissa was our waitress and she was extremely helpful and nice.

My only interactions with staff here consisted of ordering more drinks for us while my daughter played the arcade games... The bartender was a little slow, considering there weren't very many people at the bar... Other than the slightly slower than expected service, it was a good experience. The bartender knew her stuff, made us our drinks very nicely. Of course, they were kinda weak, but we were day drinking at a Dave and Buster's in the mall, so it's not like we were aiming to get plastered. Next time we

So Dave and. Buster had a place upstairs that is called good vibes the place looks nice but it's interesting how the dj tells us not to move the table because of a fire hazard but a girl puts her hair on the fire lamp and says nothing to her seems very discrimination

Went for company party. Had buffet style food set up. Was at best "bar appetizers " was sitting there before we even went into the room. Kinda expensive to play games. But fun games to play. Everyone was having a good time.

Frist I never been to Dave & Busters I decided to eat something after a movie big mistake I ordered Ribs 1/2 of slab Cole slaw and asparagus frist the asparagus were burned Cole slaw was dry like I was eatting cabbage buy it self horrible food Ribs were ok service was ok even do they gave me another order of asparagus after I complained that they were burned they should of been done the frist time dont recommend this place.

Jay was a great help. It was my first time at a Dave and Busters and he thoroughly explained what we could do in terms of eating and playing games.

A great experience for my daughters birthday. Took 45 minutes to sit a party of 6 like, just enough time to enjoy the games.

Our server jazmin was great, fast service and friendly. The young manager by the name of Marcos was awesome. He greeted us as soon as we sat down, and was nice to help me out on how to order thru my phone. We received our order fast, hot and fresh. My son loved his cheeseburger and the wings were crispy. Overall great experience. Thank you Jazmin and Marcos for your great customer service. Definitely coming back to this D&B!

Good place to eat and play with kids,Food wasn't the best but is ok, same with drinks they can be better

Kitchen Manager came over and introduced himself and made sure the food came out perfect and had a lovely conversation with us.

Came here for a birthday party. ?? they don't do birthdays anymore. Just have to buy a cake. Had ordered a Mushroom burger. And bbq ribs. Enjoyed the burger. It was very juicy and the cheese was smothered all over the meat. Yum.mm bbq ribs felt a little bitter. It was good but it was missing just a little bit of love. The place doesn't get too crowded. The games are available for those who want to play. Other than that. Its ?? ?? oh also its easier to pay through the phone with QR code than with servers, ma

Came here and sparked a blunt in the parking lot w my homies and we got so baked played everything there was to play spent over $200 10/10 experience but the food didn't hit the munchies :(

This is a long overdue review of my experience and I apologize to the staff, especially the Manager Marcos for not posting this sooner.. I had a birthday party for my daughter with many guests one night. Short story is I had a less than pleasant experience for a few reasons. Next day, I was sent a survey where I voiced my concerns. Almost immediately after I was contacted by Marcos, a manager at the location and was treated to one of the most pleasant experiences I've ever had from a place I have been to. H

We had the absolute pleasure of being served by Sam at the Dave & Buster?s in Arcadia, and she truly made our experience unforgettable! From the moment we sat down, she was incredibly attentive, friendly, and always had a warm smile on her face. Sam made sure we had everything we needed, checking in regularly without ever being overbearing. Her service was impressively fast, and she made us feel genuinely cared for throughout the entire visit. It's rare to find someone who goes above and beyond the way she

Bland food cold to warm fries some games were down or malfunctioning the VR Jurassic world( only reason they're getting 2 stars or else one to no stars) was very cool but $5 a person is a bit much but the real kicker the menu I got was sticky and gross I don't think I'll ever come to this one

I made a reservation for Super Bowl Sunday and it was canceled with doubt anybody telling me and I had a group of 10 people That we're waiting to come. They are so unprofessional instead of let people know that it was canceled on their end. I would never Make a reservation here again

My grandson loves Dave & Buster's. There is Lots of entertainment and delicious food for all ages.

I had the pleasure of dining at Dave and Busters recently, and I have to highlight the exceptional service provided by our waitress, Sam. From the moment we were seated, Sam's attentive and engaging demeanor stood out. She skillfully managed our entire party with a level of care and efficiency that truly enhanced our dining experience. Sam consistently ensured that we were well taken care of, never letting our drinks or plates go empty. She was always quick to offer refills and attentive to our needs, whet

First time here. The food was good we got 50% off when you're a member. Games are half on wendsdays. We has fun.

Came in to watch the 49ers game and have a few cocktails! I got my sliders for free by being on the D&B app!

We came for a family Party. We had the best server. Her name was Lily. She was the hostess with the mostest. If you book a party here make sure to request Lily and Helen as your servers. They made our experience here wonderful. Having the two ladies as our servers makes us want to come back again. Great customer service, - good job Dave &Busters.

Food is delicious from main meal to the dessert! And the service is great! We had so much fun, playing games and absolutely enjoyed our time!

Upstairs sky bar w/security plenty of variety of games on the pricey side 2 areas that serve food at the entrance the other on the game floor full bar and menu fried pickles was the best appetizers were a great choice to share they have burgers sliders pasta and wings

Waited over an hour just to be seated once we got seated waited another hour the place was empty and we never got served

One of the nice D&Bs I ever been too. Was just having a drink with the homie and the scene looked great and the bar tenders were very attentive and nice.

Food was ok water was nasty it tasted like plastic or soap I ordered other cups again thinking it was but nope it was the water.

Great food, ordered a steak ?? ,service kind of took long it's ok and the atmosphere was great because it's very big in there

Fun place for adults and children. The food is good, many games and a great place to book a party located on the second floor at The Shops at Santa Anita.

Had the Unlimited wings, came with fries. About $80 for 3 orders. Went to watch NFL Football on a Sunday. Group of 7, get there early to secure your table. It seemed to be 1st come 1sr served.

New renovated. Very nice and classy. Tons of fun. Great food and games!

My experience at Dave and Buster's in Arcadia was amazing. As soon as I entered, the lively atmosphere and the sounds of arcade games filled the room, creating an exciting ambiance. The variety of games available was impressive, catering to all ages and preferences. I particularly liked the virtual reality games, as they were interactive and immersive, providing a unique and exciting experience. The staff were friendly and provided great service throughout my visit. The food and drinks at Dave and Buster'

I was VERY disappointed on my visit today! I arrived about 1:30 pm. I been going to this Dave and Busters for Years! I work with special needs and my clients love going to Dave n Busters. At Arcadia location they are remodeling. All of the setting area next to the games and the bar have stools to sit on at the tables. I have bad knees and are not able to sit on the stools. I have clients that not only have intellectual disabilities but also physical. One of my clients is about 5 ft and is semi paralyzed on

Our server Lee was great!! He was on point with everything, also the food was suprisingly tasty. The only reason I give 4 stars ... kids around 10pm was very annoying!! I even saw a mother with a newborn baby.The music was loud like in a club which was good for adults but not for a baby so maybe make it at less 18+ after certain hour.

Chewy was a great waiter. My family had an amazing time.

It was a very nice Dave and busters but they don't believe in A/C? it was so freaking hot in there

Celebrated my niece in the private room they offer. Service was great everybody was kind

Food and drinks were delicious!!! Our server was excellent! He even walked us through with making an account via app, which saved us $$ on our meal! In the arcade, I was able to combine my old game cards to an updated one. We had an amazing time! First time at Dave & Buster's in decades, definitely coming back!

Our server Anissa was OUT OF SiGHT! She was attentive, friendly and very helpful. She took our order and had drinks to us before the commercial break was over. Thank you Anissa for a super fantastic experience. We hope to see you next time we come in!

used the human crane. That was the best thing I've ever done. Thanks Isaac for my our experience better

Erick was very attentive to my table during the cowboys game. Jesus the manager checked on us to see if we were doing okay and we were doing okay. The cowboys were losing so i wasn't really in the mood but s/o them for creating the vibe.
