Dave & Buster's Balcones Heights

The games are why you go, even as an adult. The food is ok, it's not amazing but still enjoyable. The service was questionable because we could not find the host (no one was at the entrance) then when we did get one he disappeared and I had to ask the bartender to call one for us. Maybe it was because it was slow , Sunday at noon. The waitress was nice.

It's a good place to go and enjoy quality family time. The food is delicious the service is great and the games are excitingly fun, the only thing is the games say you will win so many tickets but in actuality it never gives you the amount promised.

We have spent decades burning through our hard-earned cash at Dave & Buster's restaurants across the country, and we've come to grips with that aspect for sake of the time together and love of the games. The environment here is largely the same as others in terms of plenty of options to keep the family or friends entertained and a consistent menu of sports bar entrees. If you don't know what you're getting into, pay close attention to the prices on the menu and games as it can rack up quite the bill quickly

Still going strong. Management seemed engaged but there were many empty beer glasses next to several games. Mid day. Had we not burned through our cards I would have mentioned the (very visible) young people that had clearly had too much to drink and were loud.

They did bring back the eat and play combo which gives you more bang for your buck. There is a lot of new games that have been brought in recently. Fun for all ages and they still have happy hour! This recent trip we only played, dis not purchase any food or drink. I do recommend to get the app if you don't have it. There's a lot of perks and features to earn free game chips and even food!

Took my daughter here for food and games, we absolutely loved it! Fun atmosphere, friendly staff, good food and drinks :)

We played games for over an hour before we went to eat. The game area was clean & most of the games seemed to be working. However, the young man working in the redemption area was not friendly at all or just was not happy to be work that evening. Now om to the restaurant portion. Our waiter was ok at the beginning when he took our drinks order & our food order. Then we had been waiting for quite some time & finally another man came to our table with our order asking if we had seen our waiter, which

Dave & Buster?s was a wonderful time we went for the Wednesday half off food and games special so it was really inexpensive and a wonderful time! If you've been to Dave & Buster?s before, you might want to try them again if you were disappointed because they have a new menu and a new kitchen equipment from what we hear and the food was spectacular! The service was still a bit slow, but I'm sure they're getting used to having bigger crowds again will give them a pass on that!

???????? Solid Spot for Food, Fun, and Games in the Heart of San Antonio! This Dave & Buster?s is located in a prime area?right off Loop 410, near Target, Burlington, and Crossroads Mall. It's easy to find, and the nearby shopping makes it a great pre- or post-dinner stop. Whether you're looking for an outing with friends, a fun date night, or just a way to unwind midweek, this location checks a lot of boxes. Walking into the lobby, the atmosphere is clean, open, and inviting. The entryway was well-kept a

Just went for drinks and games, first time ever. Won't be the last. Had a lot of fun, and already planning next visit with a group. Can't believe I hadn't ever been. Good luck to everybody and enjoy. ????

All around subpar experience. Just so bad. The drink service was incredibly slow. Appetizers and meal came out before bar drinks. We had to get our own silverware. When we asked the food runner for plates he mumbled something and never came back. The waitress had the urgency of a sloth. The nachos below had zero cheese in them. When we asked the waitress about that she gave a D student response on the economic factors playing into the lack of cheese in them. The queso in the pic below was held upside d

The food was mediorce at best and not worth the prices. The portions were very small for the price as well. All the food barely had flavor and was very bland. The service by the waitstaff was great. The drinks were good. But the food definitely needs some improvement for the prices.

This place is unassumingly large! Lots of parking, easy in, easy out. There are plenty of dining areas with a decent assortment of food and a full bar. TV 's with plenty of things to watch. Private rooms for large gatherings Plenty of video games and large prize area There are no pinball machines/games here Yes, the good and drink is a bit pricey but my meal was very good and the service was prompt and friendly in the larger dining area. This is a good place for something to do out of the heat

My kiddos still love going but the fees for Dave and Busters always updating, is ridiculous. The hungry hippo game was fantastic for the entire 1 minute it went. Just say it is going to cost $50 for two people to play for 5 minutes. I rather you just be upfront, not shorting the games to 60 seconds.

My sister took me here last week on Sunday. We sat at the bar and ordered an appetizer and a couple of drinks. Bartender was amazing and extremely friendly. The restrooms were clean. Wasn't too busy at 8pm. Had a great time. Will definitely be back.

Celebrating our wins, we took the whole soccer team for a fun night. The patience of the servers were remarkable tending to 20+ ppl. Food was great! Ofcourse, our kids had fun. The next time we head this way, we will be sure to stop by ??

We have visited seven different D&B locations across three states: South Carolina, North Carolina, and Texas. Five of these have been located in Texas: one in Euless, one in Dallas, one in Arlington, and two in San Antonio, including this location. This was our first time going about an hour or two before they closed for the evening. Surprisingly, there weren't many people, and we were able to enjoy a much more relaxed environment with good music playing on the speakers. We did learn that the games are shut

This has been our 3rd visit to this Dave & Buster's and still, not too impressed with the food. My son was visiting from Washington and this was his last night in town so we chose burgers to save some time. My daughter ordered the strips. Well, to our disappointment, the burgers were dry and lacking flavor and the french fries tasted as if they had been sitting there for a while. My daughters chicken strips and fries were good. Aside from some of the food, the staff was friendly and upbeat and the atmosphe

This place is awesome! I wish you could get more bang for your buck but regardless my kids had a blast. I bought 3 game cards 2 40 and one 20 and paid over a hundred dollars for that. Then went to eat and spent another $120 for 2 kids meals and a burger and fries... and a picture to capture the moment another $25... the games were fun. I had the 20 card and it ran out fairly quickly... kinda disappointed... the kids had there 40 and that lasted a long while longer. Some games went working so my kids ran ar

This is a "legacy" layout Dave & Buster's that (at the time of writing this) has not yet had their remodel. I hope when they do get their remodel that the dining area is left mostly as it is, because I love the classic feel of these locations. We arrived at opening time on a Thursday and were greeted by the Assistant General Manager, Rick. He was such an incredible guy; he walked around with us for a bit talking about his time with Dave & Buster's and talking about this store. The dining area is sized well

We frequent this spot often, mainly for fight nights and football game days. I made a reservation thinking it would be a busy fight night, but when we arrived, it wasn't crowded, so we decided to sit at the bar, which I immediately regretted. We had to move from one end of the bar to the middle just to get greeted. I must say, the food here is hit or miss. There are times when I leave craving it, and other times when I swear I'll never order the dish again. The last time I was here, I ordered wings?all fl

Pretty good vibes. Went midday during the week. Its spacious great for watching sporting events or taking the kiddos to play video games. Staff was courteous and professional.

I had reviewed this location 3 years ago...I guess it's been deleted. Visited today for a Team lunch for work. Wings were ok. We ordered 6 different flavors of wings and they all kinda tasted the same with very little deviation between them. Not a single sauce was spicy by any definition...and that included the Nashville Hot, Spicy Korean, and Cajun. Fries, fried pickles, and potstickers were good. Our server was excellent and service was good. We still had fun going around playing games. One of the guys

Fun date night experience! Drinks are spot on! Atmosphere is lit! And good for night out or to take the kids out for fun as well. ??

The place looks amazing. The games are great. The bar staff in the upper, regular area? Horrible. Waited over 7 minutes before I asked to be served. Complete change from the past 2 hours we've been here. Ya know. Customer service is a haard place to say, "the worker was having an off day." Everyone understands that saying for others, but rarely applied to customer service because in America, "the customer is always right." Which is false. We need to chill. And also come prepared to work. Sorta.

Always a great time at this Dave & Buster?s location. Good food, friendly employees and great happy hour.

My wife and I went to D&B the night before our wedding 6 years ago and decided to go again on our anniversary this year to have some fun. We first sat at the bar up front to eat and get a feel of the vibe. Our bartender up there was lackluster to say the least. We were two of the three people at the bar. Service took a while and we had to find our bartender who was in the well talking to a server. We asked for our tab and he brought us the wrong card. We were going to leave but decided to check out the game

We visited Dave and busters for a quick trip but spent 2 hours there, Kids played lot of different games and enjoyed a lot. We did not eat anything so cannot comment on food. But there were 3 different blocks for eating and 1 inside the gaming area.

GREAT PLACE TO EAT & WATCH THE GAMES, MY GRANDDAUGHTER HAD TO MET HER FRIENDS FIR A BIRTHDAY PARTY. WE JUST GRAB A TABLE WATCHED 4 FOOTBALL GAMES ON THIS BIG WIDE SCREEN. DEFINITELY A GREAT PLACE

Absolutely horrid experience here tonight. Went to watch a basketball game and we were neglected by our server so badly that we only got our drinks at the end of the first quarter. We ordered appetizers and were never brought any silverware or napkins even though we asked our server twice. The nachos had a couple chips with cheese and chicken, but they were mostly plain tortilla chips. This in combination with the loud, terrible karaoke music ensured that I will never be coming back. For context, the entire

Food was mid?13.00 for 4 cheese sticks and very small portion of marinara sauce. I ordered the spicy smashed burger and the meat didn't have any flavor Chicken tenders were amazing! I was expecting it to be great for my first time but it wasn't. Shout out to our waitress though she did amazing even though my 19 month old would scream every time she came to our table lol.

Places like this are overpriced and that's okay, but what was annoying to say the least was the three bartenders in the game area, they seemed cliquey and just glanced at me while I sat at the bar for a good 10 minutes. I've noticed some other reviews about the bartenders, so maybe time to do something about that. I definitely won't return and will be going to Andretti's next time as they have better food, service and games!

Server took almost 25min to cash us out which resulted in us not being able to play arcade games we had already paid for. Big lady manager at front door saw a family of four leaving very upset and I mentioned how this really ruined the evening and my son?s birthday- showed no concern for customers instead smiled and locked the doors. Server in bar area was very slow. They turn off arcade games right at 12 with no announcement but they sure as hell don't turn off the kiosk charging you to add money to your

Food was great. The service and wait time was absolutely ridiculous. We went on a mid Friday afternoon and the place barely had anyone inside with a bunch of employees walking around. To get a drink was the hardest part about being inside. I almost had to beg for them to take my money. Won't be coming here again. With the amount of options in 2025 I don't recommend this place.

Worst experience in San Antonio I give this place one star for the fun and experience I had before my family outting was very rudely interrupted by the male manager with the dreads I was unable to catch his name due to his inability to wear a name tag when singling out my sister for the jean shorts she was wearing! He told her she had to leave the property and or cover up with clothing we did not have due to the uncomfortability of another guest... we had been there for three hours and our grandparents had

Food and atmosphere was good. Service well that's what happens when you hire children to be a bartender!

Solid place. Good deals, Wednesday after 9 you can take advantage of half price games and their happy hour to get a deal that isn't matched. Unfortunately because of this it might get a little busy and they almost always only have a single bartender at the arcade bar which slows down service. The past 9 visits, the drinks have been good everytime but it usually just takes forever to get the bartender?s attention. They recently added food deals too which are ok but overall not a bad place if you go on the ri

We had the pleasure to have Ari as our waitress who recommended dishes, partook is our conversation (which was welcomed), and put up with my picky child as we took forever to finally decide. It was well worth it! Wonderful food and experience that didn't cost more than a typical restaurant. Plus my kids got to run wild in the arcade after! We had a blast!

Lots of new games that are fun for the kids and adults. Food was ok the waitress was great. Clean and all staff was helpful. Better than I remember for sure!

I take my family to this particular D&B a few times a year. Don't really have too many issues, occasional food mishaps but nothing too serious. Overall it's a great time each time we go, the kids love the games.

Food was typical D&B's, not bad but nothing to write home about. Games were working great. The that weren't when we got there were repaired before we left and still had a chance to play them.

Tyrell was a great server! He was quick and attentive. Answered questions about the game play and entree deal. See you next time!

Our server was awful. We waited over 15 minutes to be greeted. When we asked for silverware, he said that there were four of us and only one of him. Mind you, we were his only table at the time. The food was cold. Our drinks were left empty. I'm sorry we were an inconvenience to this young man.

We went for a family birthday day. The waiter was so cool at seeing the large two tables full of people. He was really good with the kids which is always a plus in my book. The event was enjoyable

First time here just loved it very nice place to go alone, with your partner or your whole family. They have 2 full bars one in the quit area away from the games and another one in the gaming area, food was delicious and drinks were good. The moms in our group got free desert for Mother's Day. Prices are decent but worth every penny. The gaming area is big with games for all ages really enjoyed it will definatly be coming back ??????

Yvette was an amazing server. It was our first time at Dave and Busters and we wanted to watch the fight. She provided prompt service and suggested the Cajun pasta and I loved it. 10/10 Service. We'll definitely be back.

Dingy atmosphere and lackluster service. Food was average, but as expected. We didn't do any arcade games, but they looked appealing. We'd go back for fun, not necessarily food.

My friends and I went to Dave and Busters at Balcones Height to have a bite to eat and enjoy the WWE ppv. The servers are great there but the assistant manager, Rick, caused us to change tables after we had been there for 2 hours enjoying the PPV. He changed the channel on the screen we were watching. He said someone requested to have the channel changed. There were at least a dozen WWE wrestling fans watching the PPV. I spoke to Rick when we requested he come to our table to explain why he changed the cha

There didn't seem to be many employees there. It took a while for us to get seated to eat, but once we were seated, we had great service. The food was good quality and quantity. The group I was with did not like the new system of tokens and tickets. You have to download the app in order to get tickets and tokens. You no longer get paper tickets, which to me takes all the fun out of receiving tickets from the games. Most of the games only gave you one shot and that was a waste of money in my opinion. Overall

Dine and play! Fun times. The food was fresh, variety of of new games and good family times!

I was a victim of my own success. This was my first time at Dave and Buster's and I did not know the menu nor did I expect there to be so much to do. I had this massive chicken sandwich. Actually, I ordered a bacon burger with a chicken patty substituted. Again, it was massive and delicious. :( Now for the sad part: the burger was so good I had to eat it all, and that meant I was bloated like post-Thanksgiving dinner. No, I did not have any time to play games any more. It was near closing time and we ha

We loved Kiana our waitress. She did all to make us feel comfortable. We will come back for sure

Food was overcooked and the the quesafilla did not have much meat in it

Haven't been here in over 2 years. I show up to no front desk, waiting to get my arcade card reloaded I got inpatient and grabbed a walkie talkie from behind the counter to get someone to help. The person on the other end said "there's no front desk" I didn't know how to reload my card until I entered the arcade area. When I left, I saw a family at the desk having the same issue. It would be extremely helpful if the employees would do something simple as inform people when they come in instead of getting i

We brought put daughter here for her birthday. We waited about 1 hour and 30 minutes to order our food. Then we waited another hour to get our food. They brought my husband's wings out first then an hour later they brought the rest of our food out. My husband's food was cold. The service was horrible, the waiter cane maybe 3 times the whole time we there here. I don't recommend this place to anyone.

Brought our son out for some food and games. Food was all so good, had the appetizers-double pepperoni flatbread & pretzel dog bites. We also had the steak salad, beast mode bacon burger, & the chicken Parmesan. Our server was Velma, very nice lady and interactive. Games was a blast, so many to choose from. And so many prizes as well. Bathrooms were kept clean. No long waits on our food either.

I came this location for the first time today, December 16th. We had a company gathering. The one pool table they had really needs some maintenance or needs to be replaced. The food and service was great. I used to go to the locations in Dallas and actually got to hang out with Dave and Buster several times back in the 90's. They are great guys and I am thankful to this day to them for starting this business.

Went for my brothers 24th birthday party ?? So much fun for everyone. The food service took a very long time for our food, (over 1hr) as we were a party of 12. We had a blast playing basketball, air hockey, Mario kart and so many more racing games. Theres something for everyone!

Haven't been here in years and now I ask myself why not lol. Will start coming here more especially with my kids, they loved it and will be coming more often. Also what we ordered was really good and our waitress was really nice being that she was the only one serving due to a call in. Would highly recommend coming to give it a shot.

We did not order anything to eat. We went to play games. No one was there at the front desk. We had to find someone to help us. We were told go to the front desk LOL! We finally were able to get a waitress to help us. There was no one available to cash in our prize tickets. Very disappointed. I am not a teenager but the group we took were special needs. I don't expect red carpet treatment but do expect service that is advertised.

Save your money, go somewhere else* This place was horrible. Stick to Main Event where the facility is clean, the beer is cold, the food is hot and fresh, and the service is quick. To start, it took a good 5 minutes for anyone to come to our table. We ordered our drinks and our food, sat with empty glasses for a while. The food did come out timely however it was barely edible. The boneless wings looked as of they'd been sitting for some time; they were not even hot. The celery that came on the plate was ol

Tori was an amazing waitress and very good at multi tasking. The place was clean and smelled like vanilla for some odd reason ?? ALL the staff from the moment we walked in was incredible.

One of the best steak wraps I have ever had! Our daughter had a blast playing the games and there was always something available to play due to the enormous size of the building and number of games. The wait staff was very kind and patient with my wife and I while we traded off chasing our little one.

Dave and Buster family fun for the whole family :) we went yesterday and I have to say it was amazing the food was delicious and the staff was very friendly and made sure we had everything we needed and wanted and then the game area was huge everyone could enjoy playing from small kids to big kids and there was a bar for drink as you played :) definitely recommend

This location for Dave and Buster's is a bit nicer than going to the downtown one. Simply because of not having to pay for parking and fighting with the mall crowd. The service here can be slow. They can take 5 minutes or more to get seated and 5 minutes or more to have someone get your drinks and see if you need anything. Not sure if they're busy or understaffed. I've been here a handful of times and had the same problem every time. The food though is good. The game room could use some cleaning at times, d

MILITARY DISCOUNT*** A place all ages can go to have a great time. The food is decent, the drinks are good and if you invite the right people, the company is great! The games are quite pricey but if you eat first, you can get a deal with food and gaming combo. We did and it was worth every penny!

It was a fun time! Went for a birthday party and the server was very attentive. We had a group of 25. Manager explained the game cards, and the services with my friend who booked the event to make sure we were on the same page and everything went very smooth!

Game night gathering, or just a night out, D&B's never disappoints!! From great food, to great games, to great company, D&B's is always the perfect mix of service, and let ur inner kid out!! My family and I continue to visit, again and again! Tv's a plenty. Games for days. And time that never stops! Great times and great memories are always to be had when visiting D&Bs!! So get up, get out, and see u at D&B's!!

I live Dave and Busters itself but man do they have to work on their service and how long it takes to get food. We waited 20 min for our tea, then 2p min for the wrong chicken and then 20 min for a soup. Ha Though the food was yummy... they always take so long to serve us and for us to get our food. Outside of that, we love them.

I always like to visit Dave & Busters for their Pitcher Draft Beers. But this place doesn't have it. However, I liked their food and vibe.

Our visit could have easily been a 5-star visit had it not been for the following- 1) machine functionality- there was a handful of machines that were out of service or required refunds due to not functioning after payment was made. D&B honored the issues- our kiddos stood in line at the prize place each time to notify the attendant. What baffled me is that no indication was placed on the machine- so other patrons kept repeating our cycle. 2) temperature- I expected it to be warm due to the amount of peop

We do park and ride shuttles for via We were next to Dave and Buster's. But I signed up for the rewards program. It was affordable and the place looks super fun

My fianc? and I always have fun here. This was our first time eating here and it was okay. The wings were pretty good, but I prefer boneless. A quick snack? I recommend the little ice cream machine they have entering the arcade section. Super cute! Super tasty! Also tried this alcoholic beverage, definitely recommend!! Perfectly balanced.

Came here for the first time in almost 10 years for a nice little 4 year anniversary date. It was pretty dead, barely any people. Of course the food is still overpriced but to be fair, it was delicious. The drinks we got were also delicious and we both had a lot of fun. The games had clearly been through quite a bit of wear and tear throughout the years though. I wish they would build one closer to the Northside, they'd probably make more money that way too.

Go in all the time to watch Wwe . Usually get Macy as our server. She always goes above and beyond her customer service is awesome ! Thanks for always proving friendly service Macy.

Had a ball with my kids! They tried to play every single game. And the food was just as good. The Manchego Chicken was fire! Sam was a great server as well.

Food and service were great. What is not great is they have raised the credit cost on the games by 25% and tweaked many of the games to be harder to win tickets for prizes. All the roulette type games are now 12.5 credits instead of 9.9, and the time to hit the button for the green jackpot has been shortened. The basketball game has all the options removed except for classic and the goal is set to the farthest distance, making it harder to score baskets. These are just a couple of examples I can recall. R

Celebrated my love's birthday here. And it was awesome! Technically it was a celebration for both of us. His birthday and me, coming back from sickness. We had a lot of fun. The food was pretty good too. I recommend the truffle fries ??

Service for food was slow but it was packed so understandable . Some games were unplayable and others had parts broken eliminating a player from playing along. It was my wife's first time and she enjoyed it so it made a great day for me !

We sat down at a table in game room waited over 90 min for our waiter , went to get a manger to ask manger got a really bad attitude and was super rude was telling me my kind acks like that. What a Hispanic after other 1hr waiter comes by with his bs as well if you don't like you job then why work it's sad we stayed away from this place over 4 years because how we where treated last time just to get treated the same way again This place should fire this manager that runs it he game room at night

A great place to pass the time away, offering a wide variety of games, my favorite game being the Injustice arcade because afterwards it'll pop out with a collectable card!! Tons of big multiplayer games such as Mario Kart, Basketball, Ski Ball, Rock'em Sock'em robots, Spiderman, Connect Four, Space Invaders, and plenty more. Food and beverages are pricey as you would expect, but they offer happy hour between 4pm - 7:30pm where you can get half price cocktails and such. Recommend comming Wednesdays for HALF

The churros were REALLY good and so was the burger but the service could?ve been better. He took a very long time to bring our food and return the bill to us, there was barely anyone else dining in there so I don't know if they were just short staffed or what but the service could?ve been better.

Friendly staff and lots of entertainment but when I ordered my food it took 20-25 mins and it took a while to get a refill on a drink. Be prepared to wait when you order your food. Bacon smash burger wasn't that great?

They added the 6 game cards that we purchased on the food receipt to increase the total value even though it's not food service, our food price was bit above 300$ and the service tip should be around 60$, how ever, we purchased another 300$ worth of game cards and I found it on the final receipt and I have to pay service tip at least 120$ , how is that fear??????????. No more Dave and Buster's

We had a lot fun playing all the games, however we made a mistake by coming here for food, ordered some appetizers, nothing was too impressive, and I get it, people don't come here for food. What worries me was the hygiene of this place. I wanted a cup of the warm water, and I got one, but the cup they brought me was really filthy, it's covered with brown stains. I can't believe they used it to serve me water.

This was our first time. Everything was good. Our server Tyler was very helpful and nice. The food was good as well. Oh and we loved the games.

I took my teenage son here the other day. He loves this place. They have a great assortment of video arcade games. Some of the best games there are: Mario Kart, Luigi?s Mansion, Deal or No Deal, and a very large PAC Man arcade / screen game. We always have fun when we visit this place.

Cool, not that dirty and all games worked, which is rear with those kind of places. There was bad odor Wright in front of kitchen entrance but beside that was good. Workers are polite and fast service.
