Dave & Buster's Utica

Definitely less busy to visit on a Sunday. There's a lot more electronic games since the last time I was there. I'm glad to see there was still DDR set up. Food: very good Games: Good, but some do not work properly. I hope they keep all of the non electronic games they currently have. The human claw is new, and fun to watch ( price starting at $20 ) and there's a 4 player hungry hippo game that's new but is not set up for use yet. The best deal is the meal deal menu ( comes with tokens) and the best no

Very nice atmosphere of fun for all ages! Many different arcade games to play it was me,my daughter's first time going for her birthday ?? and it was fun! Get your coins up to go there and have fun!??

Amazing place for a family time. Large area, with live vibe. Plenty of play options and no down games. Food is very nice, good portions, and large vegetarian options. Service was wonderful and faster. Yet gave three stars due to the confusion in the billing. But other than that I was fantastic. Nice atmosphere and kids really enjoyed a lot, and it wasn't boring for the adults as well. Over all the evening well spent, and quality family time.

So much fun! Pretty good food. Drinks are pricey but you don't see drunk and belligerent people in there either. Awesome big screens and cool retro games along with cool new ones!

This place has not lost nothing since opening. I came here when they first opened as this was the only one for year. Its beautiful inside! I think it's better than it was b4. ITS HUGE!!! I had my son's 2nd birthday here during a blizzard, he'll be 28 in 2 days??. Our service was outstanding! John I believe and the young lady with the red d&b bandana on, they were absolutely amazing they kept our party all not needing anything ???? ?? ??

Dave & Buster's in Utica, Michigan, offers an enjoyable mix of entertainment, food, and drinks, making it an ideal destination for group outings, family fun, or a casual night out. The atmosphere is vibrant, with colorful lights and a very spacious arcade filled with a wide variety of games. No matter what type of games you're into, there's something for everyone. One of the standout features is the thoughtful layout of the space. The front area is separated, offering a more relaxed dining experience with

Work party for 30. Went out of their way to accommodate our request, also set extra games up in play room. Perfect

An awesome spot for entertainment and games! The place is super clean and well-organized, making it a great place to have fun with friends or family. From arcade games to sports screens, there's something for everyone. The atmosphere is lively, and the variety of games keeps you entertained for hours.

Amazing place. Very large facility. Went on a Monday afternoon. Very loud inside due to the games. The games are massive and there are many many games to choose from. A bit expensive but we had fun. Food was great but the server could not figure out how to separate our order into separate checks. He simply couldn't figure it out and made many mistakes. I had to wait about 20 minutes to talk to the manager who did fix it satisfactory, except no offer was given for the hassle on complete mess up. Ended up get

Games are fun with the kids. 5 servers standing around with 2 tables in the main dining area, food still took 40 minutes and wasn't even hot when it came out. Yucky frozen ingredients! Don't waste your money or time on the food?

We started out with getting some food. Each of us got something different. They were all delicious. Very fresh, full of taste and more then enough to fill you up. Our server was top notch and on point with the drinks. We played many games for 45.00 I spent for each of us. The atmosphere was awesome. People watching at its finest. I even got to kick back with a cocktail and watch some of the NBA playoffs on 6 different screens. We had a blast playing and laughing. We will be back. This place was a blast. See

Dave & Buster's is a great place to play games and have great drinks. But to warn you in the game room the bathrooms are repugnant, and it's hard to find places to sit. I feel like a weekend is bad to go because everyone and their mother is there, but you could find a day that isn't so packed. *****Edit**** Post was from three years ago. The place is packed and when it's not, the bartender pretends you're not there. When it's busy, it's like Chuck E Cheese, where kids will swipe their cards and push you off

I had an amazing time with my boyfriend here. The drinks were really good but just beware they are sugary too many could upset your stomach. The games were really fun I spent a few hours there.

Overall great experience, service a little slow for refills and whatnot but could have been due to time of day. Food was very good but the coolest thing they had which was new to me was an all you can play card for 90 minutes. The cost said $59 but when I got the bill it was only $45. The unlimited is the way to go for sure.

I've been to Dave & Buster's in the past. I feel like the place is starting to get run down and not enough maintenance. We had problems with several games, which the staff was willing to give us refunds. The food was not the greatest. I got boneless wings that were really not anything to Rave about. We did have a lot of fun just wish they would do some maintenance on their games

Had an awesome time at Dave & Buster?s last night! My friends and I finally made it back after a while, and we were lucky to have the best server, Korey. The Wednesday night half-off games and late-night happy hour made it even better! Highly recommend checking it out for great service and a fun vibe. Food can be a little hit or miss but it was good this time around.

We only had raspberry lemonade, but it was reasonably priced and delicious. There were several options for game play. Right now they even have unlimited play cards which would be great if you're able to go several times during the season.

My Granddaughters and I had a great time playing games and getting prizes. The human crane was an awesome experience!! I only gave 4 ??'s because we did not have an option for seating for lunch. We had to dine in the game area, and we would've appreciated a quiet area to eat and chat.

Came on a Tuesday night, CJ Barrymores was closed. 5 dollar drinks for happy hour. My Long Island was just sweet & sour mix, no alcohol. I didn't wanna complain, I didn't wanna gripe, I just wanted a drink to walk around with. Had fun regardless.

We went specifically for the Fireteam Raven arcade experience. Did 2x Eat-N-Play combos with additional chips added. Disappointed to find that not only were the machines not networked, but the QR scanners had been REMOVED from the machines, meaning no stats or mission progress would translate to our online accounts. Not the end of the world, but being the primary reason for hitting the arcade, disappointed is an understatement. Food was good, service quick, but if the biggest feature of the arcade experien

We love coming here to get away from all the stresses and let our inner child come out! Arcade is pretty awesome! They also have a new menu, pretty delicious! I got the ribeye and that's hit or miss. I've gotten it 3 times medium rare and it's either way too overcooked or undercooked but it is what it is. They don't specialize in that. The drinks were yummy, they have this watermelon margarita, sooooo good!

Where do I start. Went there for my wifes birthday. Was told they were under staffed and didn't want to overwhelm the waitress, so we couldn't be seated for 30 min. Mind you, there was only 1 table seated at the time. We went into the game room and bought the game pass and food combo deal. We then actually got seats at a table in that area instead of the restaurant side. Ate food, bill comes, and it was completely screwed up. At this point, I was just done, so I paid an additional $70 and gave the waiter a

September 2023 - came here on my daughters 11th birthday. She had never been here and I took her to play some video games. We did $46 and played for about 1.5 hours. We had a good time but the best part is she had a blast. There was a young woman in the store to purchase things with your tickets. I did not get her name but she was awesome. She helped us out with whatever questions we had. Overall, the place was fun, not too busy on a Wednesday and a lot of tvs to watch a sporting event.

The games are great. Tried sitting in the dining room. No one ever came to our table. Asked to move to sit in the game area. Server came quick. Food took a long time. The burger had no seasoning and so little sauce it was so dry. I wasn't expecting to have a gourmet burger but this thing was so flavorless and dry.

Had a much needed date night with my hubby and wanted to try something different. Dave and Busters was definitely the way to go! The food was great and accommodated my gluten allergy. We were able to get 15 extra free chips by simply downloading the app and adding the chip card we had purchased. There's tons of game options and the crowd wasn't too bad. My husband got a couple drinks and was very happy with their taste. The bartender was running around like crazy but still ensured we got great service and

It's Dave and Buster?s Been coming here for years. Nothing really bad. There is an age limit at night. Good food, tv, drinks, bar, games, private party. Very big location. Menu is always changing. Not to expensive. For video games, this is 2nd place. First places goes to Round1. No one can beat Round1. Their places are always huge and this place is no exception. RIP Buster. Highly recommended

Fun for the kids. Food was good. The cloth napkins had a chemical smell to them though Less games for younger kids. The quality of food has definitely gone down. The kids did like their chicken nuggets but didn't eat the fries. I didn't eat mine either Went back again. I ordered the mushroom Stout Burger. It really sounded good but unfortunately I couldn't taste any Stout flavor at all there are still limited games for younger kids that doesn't require violence

My family and I had an awesome time, food and drinks was great had a wonderful waitress. Enjoyed half off Wednesday on their games. Establishment was clean including the bathroom. Can be expensive but well worth it especially if you love to see your family happy. It can also be a great place for a date night as well.

Several games and such were broken. A game credit kiosk was out of order. The Angry Birds ball launcher failed to launch most of the time. The BlackOut game took several credits in a row but didn't respond to input. I told the staff about it and an employee came over and put credits in the machine and said "look it's working fine" and I had to explain to them several times that no, it's not working, you're just watching it do its own thing in demo mode or something. It's not responding to your touch. He fin

Today was my first ever going to Dave and busters. I have got to say it was something magical going on a dated with my girlfriend. It was just simple fun and competitive gaming with the person you like. Also it a great place for a family get together. Not much I really have a problem with except for the little wait time eating there. Overall I would be coming back for another fun.

I had a wonderful experience at Dave and Busters. I went for a birthday party. The staff was great. And the kids had fun! I would definitely go back again.

The food was great, the service was not the best (restaurant specific). As a whole, the family and I had a blast playing games and snacking on some great food. The place was clean, all of the games worked, and the prices of the games are not bad at all. Will come back for sure.

If you go during happy hour, you can really stretch your dollars! Great food and service every time we go. Its a great family spot for lunch or dinner dates with our toddler. Always clean and well maintained.

My friend Got her hand wallet pickpocketed from her jacket and was missing her two bank cards. We tried to call I joke you not 182 phone calls to this place nobody ever answered the phone they just kept directing you to other places even though they were open. we eventually had to drive up there and we live in St Clair Shores so it was a little bit of a drive because nobody would answer the phone. The food was terrible the steak I had was so dry and when I told the lady that this was way too well done she

Fun exciting place! Bar tenders were awesome! Food was delicious and there was no delay on getting it after ordering! Which was fantastic since we had such a large group. All around fun!

Lots of cool games to keep the kids happy. Massive tv wall to keep the adults happy win win.

???? Follow Me @eatthisdetroit on Instagram for everything food in Detroit and Beyond Environment was good as usual. Good place to go with the kids. Food here has been pretty basic and the dine/play is the real selling point. Dinner was really busy and seems they were understaffed. Steak and asparagus were burnt . Chicken wings and fries pickles were good.

I was looking forward to a decent meal, enjoyable conversation and games. Well....when arriving was forced to sit in the gaming room as the main dining area was closed for a reservation that never showed up..at after we got there at 8 and before we left at 10. Food took over a half hour to get to us and the fries were on the boarder of warm and cold. Being forced to sit in the game room bar killed any chance of having a conversation. The remodel made the place feel drab. The gray and blue with a bunch of ca

Food portions are small for the price but you don't go to Dave and Busters for the food. Our booth had four sets of utensils, of the four sets two were dirty and unusable. The staff at D&B were super friendly and my kid and I were able to walk around and play games and have a good time. Bottom line, we enjoyed ourselves, but it was expensive and D&B should put more of an emphasis on keeping things, like our utensils, clean. Food 3 stars Service 4 stars Atmosphere 3 stars

Great gaming atmosphere and good food and drinks. Our waitress was multi-tasking but friendly and attentive. I felt my fried fish were a bit under cooked.

I just don't understand the logic of telling someone they can't sit in the dining area because it's reservation only. I literally just went online then and made a reservation and came right back. Upsetting, because I asked if we could just sit somewhere relatively quiet before going into the game area, but was told no because they only had 1 waitress there, but plenty of waitresses in the game area. Why not pull a waitress or 2 from there? Silly, frustrating logic.

We have been waiting 45 minutes to eat. It took 20 minutes for water. The server's attitude is awful. Might as well pack a picnic and eat in the car. Cause ya aint eating here or will not want to. The labor shortage isn't an excuse for a bad attitude. Next the food finally arrived. The quality of food for the price was funny. Came out cold and thrown together. The descriptions def didn't match what we saw and tried to eat. The chicken in the salad was so crispy you could break a tooth. The nachos were inter

Our relatives brought us here with the kids and we had a blast. The place is large and has dedicated entertainment sections for almost everyone. The bar area has a section for pool and watching sports shows, while the arcade area has a lot of machines and games to choose from. Tickets are earned digitally via card for easy prize redemption.

Food was fairly good. Not sensational, but not bad. Service was slow. We had 3 different waitresses in the span of 5 minutes and each didn't seem to realize another one had already taken our drink and food order. Our appetizers came out fairly quick but we had to ask for the second appetizer multiple times. Time to receive our main food order was a little long: 40 minutes. To be fair, the restaurant was busy. It took a very long time to get our bill settled. Our waitress struggle to use our discount c

Let me set the stage, a 6:15 reservation for a friend's birthday. Games galore and ready to eat first. We check in and are told it shouldn't be too long. We catch up with old friends and meet new. Time flies. What! We are still waiting!? It's 6:30 time to see where our reservation is at. Now it's 7! We are getting ready to eat at Applebee's at this point but they promise things are ready and they seat us. Wet seats await! So after some musical chairs and some paper towel we sit down finally after an hour an

Today was the last day for the date night special they advertised so I wanted to catch it. The person at the front us told to see the host to set it up. The host then told us all the tables were taken and we could sit at the bar but didn't give any additional direction. We thought she would come bring us play cards and maybe menus. While sitting at the bar, we waited for a while and no one acknowledged us. The bartender walked right in front of us and said nothing then continued tending to other guests. I w

I will not blame Dave and Busters for such bad service because I could tell they were having an employee shortage. However I have been to this location before and the service was great. The entire front section of the restaurant is closed so you can only sit in the back section of the restaurant where all the games are located still the restaurant packed with people and no where to sit if your feet get tired and not enough tables to sit and order food. I will visit again the employee's where nice trying

I love Dave & Busters. But this place is very pricey. I only took my kids because they received gift cards. I can't comment on the food because I can't afford to eat there but I'm sure it's very good.

I went here last week with family celebrating a birthday. We had 3 adults, so we asked to load 3 separate power cards. The girl didn't listen and put their most expensive package on the same card that already had about 450 tokens on it! So we had one card with over 1000, another with nothing and one more with one of the smaller play packages. She said she couldn't fix it and we would have to share the 2 cards between the four of us! When the manager came he explained they can't split cards. However, his emp

Took the kids here for the first time and it was okay. Not a lot of arcades for the kids. No bounce house or playhouse for the little kids and no bumper carts of any sort. However, there are a lot of seating tables plus a bar.

I absolutely love this place. It's a long drive but My family, friends and even dates go here for the over-all atmosphere, entertainment, food and drinks. I for sure turn into a big kid when I'm there. Plus I finally won enough tickets for a Stuffed Cartman ?? and Dave & Buster Cup in the past ????????????????!!

Highly Recommend* *Great Family Fun* Go on a Wednesday for half off game night! We had a great time here & would definitely come back but only on half off night which is still expensive however to see everyone so happy is well worth it.

For kids it's one of the good places for entertain them?.I do love the virtual reality section but it's often closed?..For Some of the games the timer is too short?.soo many options will be there and it includes restaurant and bar where we can chill

They charged our card twice. Still trying to get our money back. The manager tried to say the machine malfunctioned and one of the charges would be refunded. I asked how withoutout a receipt and he looked at me like I had two heads. We had a reservation and we had to wait we'll over 30 minutes after said time. Two menu items said beef and our waiter said "um, that's pork just fyi." ?? 4 days resolved

Always have a ball here. Sometimes the children can be a little crazy. No worries though. Wish the space was bigger and had more games. Maybe even add a trampoline room. I got one drink, they didn't have prices listed and turns out it was 8.99 for the one drink. There were some out of order games too.

Used to really love them, but not going to lie, they don't have great habits of fixing broken games. It's been a year since we last went and the avp standup shooter in front of the rewards shop still is broken. The left gun doesn't reload during the game. Broken games need to be fixed or removed timely.... Too many times we've seen the same issue with multiple games go unfixed for long times. Food is good, service is good. Just fixed your broken games, please. And get rid of outdated games like ghost buster

An old lady tried to start a fight with a young girl and the staff just stood there. The old lady accused the young girl of "looking at her man" and it was a wild ride as staff did NOTHING to ensure the safety of patrons while inside their establishment. Thankfully patrons stepped in and fended off the drunk woman. Shame on the staff.

Let's start sat down at 7 and was there until almost 9 Ordered the same dish twice both times the food came out cold in most spots and Luke warm in others then gave them the easiest task chicken tenders and fries just to get cold food again staff was understanding but the food was unacceptable I wouldn't feed that to my dog the dots I bought from the vending machine there was just as cold as my food how is ice cream as cold as my food ????

It felt good getting out again with the family. Food was okay. Games were fun. Social distancing is hard of course in a arcade. Hand sanitizers were all throughout the building. Masks were mandatory. All in all we enjoyed our family day out.

I gave this location because the staff was nice and the food was good, but this is a place for games. It was disappointing as I walked around there were a few games out of service. All of the basketball games had balls that showed a lot of wear and tear, plus they were have deflated. The Skeet Ball game broke down as my friend and myself played it so it had to be taken out of service. I tried play an alien shooting game but gun target sights were way off making it not much fun. There we a few fun games like

Great place for simple arcade games. However, below average service specially for the larger group events. The people working there do not care much. Food is good for snacking.

Great ?? fun for the entire family. Wide assortment of interactive games that will keep everyone entertained for hours- make sure you bring your wallet ?? . Hang out at the var, watch the game or have a bite to eat ??. My niece Loved the axe ?? throwing game as she is too young for the real thing- right on time????

My kids and I love this place! There's so much fun for everyone! The food is great, the service is wonderful and there's so many game options for all ages, unlike other play places for kids. I highly recommend it! You can go with a large group or just the family, they will all enjoy their time and have fun!

Always have a great time here. Meet good folks and have so much fun. Great place for an adult night as well as fun for the kids...

We came to play and had a great time and decided to do carry out...big mistake ordered an appetizer that was freezing and ordered 3 burgers not only were they not cooked to the temps we asked but we SPECIFICALLY told them there was a tomato allergy in the house. We get the food home and there's tomato on it. We have to throw the whole meal out to be safe I called to talk to someone...I'm not kidding I called 15 times in 2 days no one answered the phone I finally just gave up trying. Great place to play gam

I love Dave & Buster's so much. It's my favourite place to go with my best friend. With Tom it's my happy place. However, tonight we were a little disappointed because it was LOUD and we could only sit at the bar for dinner -- though the dining area was EMPTY. Most times, service at a bar is fast, but not tonight. We waited a long time -- almost an hour -- to get food and drink. Hire some staff, would ya! ?? The huge room is no longer huge. It's jammed, loud, and full games and many don't work. Even the m

I was very surprised just how dirty this place was. There was trash everywhere on the floors and on the table tops. The 4 hours I was there I only saw one person collect glasses left around the games. Took a long while to get drinks from the bar. We did order food and surprisingly it was pretty decent. Depending on how many tokens you buy, the vast majority of good games cost about 7 tokens, which is ~$1.40 and playtime on those games can be very short. Including tips, we spent $50 on food, $60 on drinks

Brought kids out for graduation celebration... They love it... Prices are good.... I will be returning just for me soon....

Me and hubby had a great date day. Tons of games, something for everyone. The area is spacious. Great for the entire family. We only enjoyed the games, but we have had food in the past and we were always satisfied with our entr?es. Side note: Wednesdays are 1/2 off game days. Yeah!!! Double your fun. ????

The restaurant portion was empty on Wednesday night when our (reserved) party of 12-ish came in, and yet we struggled all night to get decent service. Despite having 3 different servers working on our table, I had to actually ask a server to please bus away dirty dishes that had been sitting there on our table for more than 15 minutes so we could have a clear place to do birthday gifts. Refills were not done on drinks. Food was good, but all of us ordered things off the Happy Hour menu only to not have the

Workers follow you around and it's weird. My friend and I left early because we were creeped out. Workers have attitude and are not welcoming. We were just trying to play the games and the workers followed us from station to station and we could see them in the background. They keep asking us if we knew how to play the games which was weird. It made us uncomfortable so we just left. The prizes are not good and the games are babyish. I wish they had more games or a better verity for adults to play.

Very busy since it was Saturday but it went well and had fun. Should have a designated area for strollers and big bags so not to block areas in the game room. Has been redone since last been there and looks smaller but fun.

2023 Great time not a ton of cost savings....Dave & Buster's surprised me today it's been years since I've been there but they added a new feature where you can purchase tickets on your phone taking this is way easier and you can save 30% on your first purchase like we did not only that the line to get a new power card without the door and we got to walk right by it the exchange rate is better than CJ Barrymore meaning you can get or for your tickets in terms of prizes then you can at CJ Barrymore I'm also

Wait time was too long to eat there- over 90 minutes. Games were cool. We had fun.

So fun!! I didn't have any food but the service was great! We went for around 3 hours and had the best time!! The people are really friendly! I still have a lot of tokens left, will return soon!

It was a really fun experience that should be a big groups the games are a little pricey and the food but overall we had a good time and the service was pretty good

The food was ok. The server was very attentive and on point. It was my first time there but it def didn't disappoint.

The food and drinks were good. It was very clean and the bathrooms were clean as well.. All the sinks didn't work properly though. The games were not consistently wiped down either. I suggest to go earlier in the day because it's less crowded. When we were leaving about 6:45p it started to get very crowded and it was a long line at the door. All in all we enjoyed ourselves!

Yeah, I mean; if you come here and relax and have fun; then mission achieved. Good selection of beer at the bar offsets standard fare from the food menu, but that doesn't come as a surprise. Yes* the prizes are cheap n cheesy, but again, that's no surprise. It's a good place in one of the greatest towns north of Detroit. Nuff said.

Wonderful place to celebrate a birthday of any age. Our waiter went above and beyond to make sure we got a table during a busy night.

My daughter had her 30th birthday party here and we all had a great time! The drinks were great and the service was awesome ! I recommend this place for any type of party.

It was great we had an amazing time the family the kids loved it the food was great we had a good time there and also my family was looking forward to going back for another family fun day that was a fun day outing for the family and the kids for the first time for a family fun getaway it was great at Dave & Buster's today

I recently dined at D&B and unfortunately, my experience was quite disappointing. The food was bland and lacked the flavors I was expecting. The dishes were served lukewarm, and the presentation was unappetizing. Additionally, the service was slow, and the staff seemed disinterested. Overall, it was not a pleasant dining experience, and I would not recommend this restaurant.

Had a really fun time with my friends here tonight! Fun way to end a great trip! The food was so good too!

Dave and Busters is just ok. They are more for families and they really don't have a lot. It's more for if you want to eat and play a few games, but if you're looking to be entertained for hours, this is not it. CJ Barrymore definitely offers more. Everytime I come here now, it's more so for my kids, but now that they're teenagers, they're at the point where they don't find it all that enjoyable either. They only play the basketball games or shooting games because they're older boys. So that can get a tad b

Food a bit pricey but good. Went for a family outing and had a good time at the bar area and in the arcade. Drinks were excellent. Definitely recommend the ribs!

Decent place. Parents need to watch their children better and the frozen food served was way over priced but all in all we had a blast.

Love it great time. We rented the room for 26 guests and had buffet dinner but that staff was not ready, and they we unorganized for the first hour or so. Drinks were served slow at best, but after we figured out it's way faster to go to the bar and order it was better. Food was good and server was Professional.
