Round1 Bowling & Arcade The Shops at South Town

I got confused knowing the difference between the punching bag machine and claw machine? So I punched a hole through the claw machine and won all these plushies for my hot wife and offspring. Employees gave me Kirby bandaid for my bloody knuckles. Service was fantastic. Just a little slice of Japan. I just want to hug those claw machines! Take my money, all my ?? money honey!

Quite fun to play here and I like they're open on Sundays which might be a ding for some of the population. Out of everything, the claw machines are unforgettable! Very cute toys and a lot of options. Be prepared to spend some money if you want to win the claw games. I think we loaded our cards with about $130+ to win these prizes --which is wild to look back on, but it was such a blast winning cute pokemon and the like! The figurines were harder to win and we couldn't justify spending more to get one. The

This place is nice, clean, new and fully loaded! I'll be coming back here again! We had a blast!

Awesome place to play rhythm games, they have a whole bunch of different machines dedicated to music. There's also a ton of claw machines. Most of them feel very rigged, though, more than most I've played. I'd definitely recommend coming here, it's crazy just how big the arcade actually is. Most arcade machines are Japanese themed or imports, it brings a nice feel to the arcade if you're into that kind of stuff.

Very fun! Great place for all ages. I like that they have an elevator, it's kind of hidden but it's there. There is usually a machine or two out of commission but the majority are working great. We've had lots of fun there.

round 1 is awesome and lots of japanese arcade games and prizes! the employees are also very nice. my bf is a bit too crazy over this place ngl.

So i have great memories of this place, I've had a lot of fun at round 1. But now it just SUCKS like you go in knowing the games are being rigged, but before you knew you had the chance to win and that made it fun. You would see people walk around with tons of prizes. Now it's just not possible, it's bullshit, you play 10 times perfect shots and nothing. It suck?s now, plus the bowling prices are bullshit, do better Round 1.

I bring my son with Special Needs here and we move it. The games mostly work and are fairly up to date. They serve food, but we did not order anything. The employees are polite and professional. My only disappointment is that it costs so much! Wow! It is so expensive!

Unfortunately, they have changed everything towards their bowling and probably the entire place in general. As far as the bowling goes, they never had ?VIP Lanes?, but basically, if you don't buy a VIP lane, expect to be crunched in with everyone else there. However, it wasn't a big deal to me, but someone in my group didn't want to be sharing lanes with a group of 15 people next to us using every ball in the next lane. When I walked up to pay for the VIP lane, the worker whose name starts with an ?S? was

The place is nice and clean. The food was tasty, but had few options. There were two times I saw a bowling lane get stuck- one was my lane and the other a nearby party. There is a curfew: after 10 PM, only 18+; after midnight, only 21+.

Stopped here last Sunday to wait out the snow and we had an amazing time! My 4 year old loved seeing so many new games to play. Definitely a great verity of games for kids and adults. The prices were reasonable to reload the card. Definitely loud inside but it didn't seem to bother my 4 year old or 1 year old. Only issue was the girl the helped us redeem prizes was in a bad mood. Other then that it was fun!

Didn't play but it was exciting. Two levels that look fun for all ages. If you are a claw machine fan. This is the spot.

It is important to acknowledge the outstanding service provided by Security Guard Chris. His diligence and commitment to ensuring our safety throughout the night are greatly appreciated. Chris deserves recognition for his exceptional performance and dedication to maintaining a secure environment.

So so so fun.. adult size huge ride on hungry hungry hippo game!! Tons of the coolest games that are modern and huge.. very clean . Giant ice cream cones for $ 1.00 !!! Games are a little pricey we spent $100 within 2 hrs.. but it was money well spent..

This place is really fun. A little on the pricey side, but fun. There are 2 levels inside of the Southtown Mall. On the first level is a huge arcade and ticket redemption center. On the second floor are 10 bowling lanes, billiard tables, darts, more arcade, snack bar, and cocktail bar. This was my first time, and my family enjoyed themselves. If my review and pictures help, please like ?? my review.

FUN place, and HUGE! They alot of options...bowling, ping pong, billiards, arcades, prize games. Two floors worth of fun. Not at bad prices either. Well worth the visit. The kids loved it!

They have Groove Coaster and a bunch of other great rhythm games with new music from Japan. So, that's pretty heckin' rad, UPDATE: Came back for the Hololive event and got one of the two beach towels. Thank you, Round1, for being the only place within 500 miles that actually gets me.

This place is so much funner than Dave & Buster's but it's also much more expensive. I was blown away by all the arcade games imported directly from Japan which was a huge surprise. This was great because it breathed new life into the tired American arcades of today. Staff could be much better when interacting and helping guests. The megablock game here is rigged. I won the megablock game multiple times at Dave & Buster's. The last block here always jumps another block cheating you out of a win, have some

Arcade games are way overpriced, some games are like $2 per play. Your money's better spent at a nickelcade. Bowling was fun. Pool tables are in horrible condition, with scratches and divots all over. Everything overpriced here. Ice cream is pretty good. Fun times to be had here if you love throwing money away.

I had a blast here! There is so much to do here. Lots and lots of arcade games, bowling, snack bar, typical arcade stuff. It can be veeeery expensive though. And this may sound nitpicky but the claw machines make no sense and that's half of the arcade. I threw a lot of money at that thing trying to figure out how the freak that thing is supposed to work because it's not a typical claw machine. Other than that, I had lots of fun and they have a lot of fun prizes. I'm planning on coming back soon to get some

This arcade is way overpriced and most of the games are slop trying to hook your kids on gambling patterns at a young age. The few actual games are very expensive. Initial D works out at a little over $1/minute to play for example. Only come here if you can't think of a better way to spend $20 in half an hour

Fun place to go when you have some extra money. Prizes are cool and some adorable. Lots of games and things to do, I do wish they had some Japanese games like the round 1s in Pennsylvania. Overall good place to go if you need something to do

Went here last week for my cousins bday party. We had two bowling lanes for about 2 hours and one billiard table. On top of that we also ordered a lot of food. Food came about an hour later though which was pretty slow but at the same time we didn't mind since we were doing competitive bowling. The food was good though, we ordered all the flavors for the chicken wings, fries, tater tots and mozzarella sticks, on top of that we had soda. The wings was pretty good. Ambiance to the whole place was pretty goo

Extremely over priced food and drink. A draft ?schooner? is $10 and holds less than a pint. Sucks it would be a great place to bowl a quick game and have a pint while the family shops but not at those prices. Also the beer is super flat.

Always a great array of games, I love it for the Japanese rhythm games and Crane games! The prizes are always awesome and make it worth trying to play, and the crane games aren't impossible to win!! It's always worth my money when I go.

So don't get me wrong the arcade is great lots of amazing games and plenty of Japanese imports. What's not so great, everything is in super odd demonstrations. 5-40 credit and everything in between, nothing is just an even amount to make it hard to track. $16 minimum card, plus a $2 ?new card fee? and another $1.31 i guess tax??? Don't know never disclosed. $19.31 got 2 games of the miku rhythm game, 1 game of air hockey, a play on a Naruto game and 7 coins in a coin pusher game. I mean i?ve been to a lot o

I had an amazing time here. They have clean, functional facilities and arcade machines. I'll be coming back for sure. If you come for bowling, you may want to bring a Bluetooth speaker to play your own music because they don't play music.

Lived it. Nice location next to the mall. Clean venue. Updated machines for arcade and good pool tables. Food was good at a reasonable price and bowling was a good experience with a unique feature that allows you to play for a price from time to time. I recommend this place to anyone who wants to have some fun.

When comparing arcade specifically it took me a bit to weigh out the pros and cons. Here's the thing, Round1 is loads of fun, their selection of games is rather large and newer. It's open super late everyday and is spacious to accommodate lots of people, including parking being easy due to being connected to the mall. My biggest con is price. It's pretty expensive, we ended up as a party of 4 spending about $100 for about 2 hours of play time. The usual game costs about 8-10 credits which we started with

This arcade is AWESOME!! Great selection of games new and old, from Skee Ball to Crossy Road. There's even bowling, pinball, and food (albeit iffy food). Took a star off because I wish that ticket amounts were clearly stated on every machine, because some don't have any information on that, and some machines don't give you any (like Pacman, which honestly is worth it anyways).

Wow wow wow! Huge and fun! We had a ball! They have old school games like pacman and space invaders in a huge digital screen.. plus new ones send Asian ones and music ones. There's this huge Halo game where you feel like you're in the game and 4 people can play at a time. My daughter loved the dance game where you're on this digital stage. Not only do they have an amazing arcade, they have karaoke, bowling, pool, air hockey and ping pong. It's so fun! And you can't beat their .99 cent ice cream cones!

So much fun but the claw machines are way to many tokens, this place is very expensive! And we've been 3 times and got a lot of tickets stored on our card and still can't afford anything work buying with tickets, which is disappointing.

Open late which is the best part when everywhere else is closed. Arcade downstairs and upstairs has pool tables and bowling as well as food and adult beverages

Terrible experience at the bowling lanes. We were put on the waitlist and told it would be about 20 minutes. 50 minutes later, we finally got a text that our lane was ready. While waiting in line to pay, the manager sold our lane to the person in front of us. He then said our lane actually wasn't ready and we had to wait for another text, which we knew was a lie. Half an hour later we finally got a lane, exactly an hour and 20 minutes after we were told the wait would only be 20 minutes. Avoid this place un

This place is a perfect weekend spot for whole family, adults and children can have lot of fun. I generally go to this place with a plan to spend X dollars and at the end of the day we end up spending double the planned amount, that addiction this place is. So plan accordingly.

I really like the concept of this place. Not only is it bowling and arcades but it also has darts, billiards, beer and a snack bar. It is 2 levels. Arcades on the first floor, bowling and food on the 2nd floor. They only have 10 lanes due to square footage of the location. But it is a really nice set up with some pretty unique arcade games. The food isn't the best but it's a cool spot.

Front counter advertised holiday pricing for regular and spark bowling. At checkout total was $20 more than expected, and they are charging over $20 more than advertised for an hour on a lane. Advertising $43/hr at register and charging $63/hr. Said they couldn't do anything about it, maybe take screenshot and come back another day to maybe get a refund, Manager had no power to do anything... after some discussion they eventually comped our shoe rental. Lanes are compact and tight quartered. Definitely exp

Lots of fun for a screen centered family such as ours. We don't bowl much but the arcade is great - games are kept working and the selection is fantastic. Games and prizes from Japan give us a great chance to play with Translate on Google Lens!

Just need to give a big fat juicy sloppy kiss to those employees bc I lost my airpods for almost a month, and I was so devastated about it. I called in and they said they had them, but when I went back they had reorganized the entire room so they were lost once again. 2 weeks later I get a call saying they were rediscovered and I can come by and get them. Idk how they kept track of them for that long but I'M SO GLAD THEY DID bc I use them all the time. Thank you Round 1 in Sandy Utah employees when you die

Incredible prices for the food, beer and bowling. Going on a weekday you can do unlimited bowling for only around 15 bucks. They have awesome TV's for sports and overall a very clean, minimalist feel.

fine for bowling but a bit spendy, do not play their claw games. they've obviously gotten a lot of greedy. i had no problem picking up stuff but it will drop it as soon as your claw starts moving to drop it in the chute. expensive games as well. don't even bother wasting your money here.

excellent arcade, especially for rhythm games. 1 set of 3ish songs is about $1. and this is the only place you can play a lot of these in the US

John John has excellent customer service skills! He is someone who truly values his job and definitely should be put in upper management. We had a blast!

Very cool space. Tons of games.. most of them were working. Games are expensive to play. Pool, bowling, pinball, food & drinks upstairs.

I love this arcade. It is pretty expensive - I usually don't come here if I don't have at least $100 to blow - but the money is actually worth it, in my opinion. The prizes you can get are actually decent quality. One of my favorite things to get here is the stuffed animals. They are so soft and cuddly, u like other arcade stuffed toys where it's just a block of Styrofoam. To be honest, sometimes I come here not to play games, but just to win a new plushie to add to my army collection.

Great place to play claw machines. They have a very wide selection of plushies to choose from. Some games can be a little rigged so I usually like to play the skill games but great place if you want to get some cute plushies. I've even had some employees help me win plushies after I couldn't get one. The employees are very kind and helpful and will give you tips to win prizes. Overall great arcade and very fun.

So much to do here! Had a great time catching up with some old friends. Would highly recommend for some good clean fun!

Time play is a joke now, there are exactly 10 games that is included in time play. 4 racing games, 4 rhythm games, and 2 others. No wangan racing, no ddr?s, no DJ or drumming games, no maimai, no crono. The only reason I come to round 1 and bought a banapass was to play wangan midnight on time play. Won't be returning.

Stay was awesome even though we came later. It all looked clean, and we had fun. Definitely suggest.

That's a amazing place lot of games ???? yo place

My family and I always come to Round 1 and we always have an amazing time. Tonight when I asked your associate, Isa for help with one of the claw machines she said, ?No! It's play until you win.? I completely understand that. We do play until we win. But this particular machine was giving us an hard time. All other times we've come here they were helpful when we asked for something to be moved. Especially if we have swiped the card more than 10 x?s. She didn't even bother to check how many times we swiped o

the best arcade i have ever been to. the staff is extremely nice and helpful and the game selection is awesome. it also wasn't as expensive as I was expecting it to be. my new favorite hang out spot !!

Every employee here is miserable. They all seem like they absolutely hate their lives working there. Everything is overpriced and half the games are in Japanese so I can't even read them. Bought a $25 pitcher with my friend and we couldn't even go downstairs to play games. Will not be coming back.

Good family time place, even though some of the claw machines are not working. But all in all it's a good place to spend with the kids.

Writing this as we are leaving the parking lot. HORRIBLE and will never come back. Extremely overpriced bowling for bad quality bowling. The lanes were uneven, it's not legitimate lanes, the pins are on strings. 4/5 employees that we dealt with were SO put out by having to help us. And the arcade is ASININE prices. Each game cost about $2.50 to play. And yes, we do go to other arcade places. We only came here because every other bowling was a 45+ minute wait, but knowing what I know now, I would wait 45 min

We visited Round One twice in the last two weeks. First visit we bowled and played some classic pin ball machines. Second visit we explored the rest of the arcade games. The variety and selection is remarkable. I haven't seen as good a representation of Japanese games in the states before. Overall, we had a great time time, my 7 year old niece had an amazing time. Round One didn't disappoint.

We started downstairs, and the majority of the games we wanted to play were all out of service. We decided to go upstairs and bowl. Five of the ten lanes were out of service, and our group couldn't sit together on the duct tapped seats(see photos). Our lane had an issue where the balls kept spinning in the back and would not return to us. It happened three times during our play. We finally just quit at frame eight. They would not give us our money back and we're actually very dismissive about the issue and

Rounds has a large selection of games to play, with awesome prizes. For those of you who are 21+ there is beer upstairs. In my opinion this is way better than Dave and Busters. They have more games, better prizes and better hours. 10/10 recommend for everyone.

Not my thing, but I imagine kids love it. The people were very friendly, and really working hard to make a good experience.

Excellent food and it has awesome games that are exclusive to Japan! The bowling games are really fun but unfortunately the angry birds one glitches a lot. Most of the times I have gone, Project Diva has also been broken 90% of the time which is really unfortunate. Other than that this place is great, and it's pretty rare to see a place in Utah that is open past 10 pm. The arcade is amazing but be aware it can be overstimulating to some people. Rating three stars because the service is very hit or miss. Whe

The A/C seriously needs to be fixed in the karaoke rooms. And our room was just awkward to sing at. Where do you stand? Our mics didn't work at first either, but the person at the desk gave us extra time and helped us fix it

I thought this place was super fun! They have games divided into two categories, games you can pay to play for an amount of time and during that time play is unlimited (I thought the pricing for those games was SUPER fair!) or the pricier games or prize games you load an amount onto a card. The kids had a blast, enjoyed the food and we would definitely go back. Their employee Lauren was especially helpful and made our time spent there really great.

Fun, but could be better. There were a lot of machines that were out of order, and probably half the arcade was prize winning games filled with stuffed animals. We found a picture booth that was quite expensive and the photo quality was terrible. We didn't really play for tickets but ended up getting a few pieces of candy when we finished our credits.The bowling section was also out of order but the pool tables were nice. We got a plate of nachos after we were done, they tasted great and took about 15 minut

The coin push machine says you get 5 tickets per silver coin. I knocked out over a dozen of them and got no tickets, instead it spat out two silver coins and a green coin. Asked the worker for help and he said the silver coins are filler, and don't count. THEN WHY DOES THE STICKER ON THE MACHINE SAY THEY COUNT?

Came here down for a good time! It was fun until I was kicked out for winning too many prizes. Came here for a friend's birthday party and there's so many games to choose from! Lots of Japanese games with anime prizes which are very cool and fun to play. There were several, and when I say several, I mean SEVERAL different kinds of timing based games where you could win these cool anime figurines. I figured out the timing on these games and won myself and my friends these anime figurines that we were wanting

This place has lots of games that you can enjoy. Expect to pay more than $20 to have fun.

Wow? It's video games galore and fun for all. My teenage kids have a blast here yesterday afternoon. A little break from the hassles and tassel, we decided to stop by for a little break. They have everything here, from old games to new ones, especially the new dancing video games from Japan. Lucky, the card ran out of credit or we will be there all night. Finally, my teenage daughter found something exciting about this new Japanese dancing video game. She said she knew all of the songs and moves. And she wa

Great selection of games, but SO overpriced. Spend $100 to win enough points to get a sucker ?? waste of time and money.

Pretty fun place, have been here before covid and after covid. During covid a lot of it is closed and pretty lame. If you do come, make sure it's after 11 when only adults can be there.

I came for my birthday and the place totally suck to expensive I spend 200 bucks for nothing I did not got anything I got the worst experience ever worst?s place ever to go never going again they made my day suck more then it all ready was? there machines are all fix to not Winn?

This arcade is a rhythm gamers dream, it has Sound Voltex, it has Beatmania IIDX, it even has dancerush stardom. It's a bit pricy but if you love rhythm games this is the spot for you. 9/10 cause I can't beat sdvx 7th dan

1st visit to Round1. Lots of fun (and LOUD) games in the arcade. We came to bowl. The pins are on strings, which Ive never seen before. The machine had some difficulty resetting the pins. Its a bit pricey $42 an hour plus shoe rental. There is an hourly "midnight bowl" a strike competition. No one won while we were there. Overall, fun, but expensive. The digital boards for entering players and tracking scores were fantastic. Much easier to use than the typical lane set ups in older lanes. The balls are col

Im coming to this place every week and tbh the staff is so friendly, especially susan and kitty, they are the best!

I was so excited when I heard Sandy has a Round One but this place was very disappointing. The crane games are a total scam. The cranes are deliberately weakened and shaky to drop everything. I literally picked up the stuffed animal and the crane shook it off while moving to the opening. Don't bother wasting money on those at all. The stuffed animals are also velcro-ed on for the UFO catchers. Just a scam. Food takes forever to make. You should eat before coming. Staff is horribly slow. Go to the mall and v

Really fun and enjoyable arcade and family friendly! Although I will only give 4 star because alot ALOT of their games were shut down or not working. There is also a upstairs area for pool and bowling and its very COVID19 friendly! Would recommend to families looking for a fun getaway with their kids and both parents and kids would have a fun time!

06/22/25 update: both ddr cabs are always working now : )! the claw machines are fun but its getting crazy how much area theyre eating up, i kinda hope we're done adding them. i do also wish credits price didnt increase but whatever. these guys can never get both ddr and beatmania cabs operational at the same time it's kinda dumb. still nice to have a round1 in salt lake area tho so i can't hate on it too much.

Fun games but no goldfish bowl game anymore :(

This place is absolutely AMAZING!!! Go check it out. Has arcade on main floor and bowling alley on second floor along with pong, pool hall, darts, food (2.00 beer drafts and .99 ice cream cones are the best) as well as lots more arcade games. Stays open til 2am!!!!

It's pricey if you're playing the games to win tickets. If you buy timed play, it's a lot cheaper, but it doesn't include most of the ticket winning games, if that's important to you. I love the variety of games and all the space so it never feels too crowded. The food is actually a great deal--99-cent ice cream!? Amazing.

We go here 3-4 times a year for the crane games and rhythm games. They often are rotating prizes and machines so there is something new to experience every time. We would go more often but we spend a lot of money when we go so we keep it as a special occasion kind of trip.

Came in at 12:25 wait nine minutes and after the said they are closed but the sign said at 12:45 I know I came in a late but the site is open till 2 and sign said I had 15 minutes don't know why you guys are turning away business

This place does well. Influenced heavily by its Japanese-based parent company, the signs of which are shown heavily on its sleeve, this arcade has not only a good selection of games you would expect, but a large number of Japanese import cabinets with the likes of various Rhythm games, lightgun games and racing games. I typically hate crane games, but this place also has Japanese UFO Catcher crane games that support skill and not luck. (Be sure to report if you win or get the prize stuck so it can be reset

If you ever find yourself bored on any day of the week or want to stay out late, come to Round 1! The biggest arcade in Utah with so many claw machines and 2 floors of entertainment including karaoke, bowling, pool, and photo booths. The claw machines are my favorite part of Round 1, as you can actually win plushies here! Be prepared to spend a lot of money!

I'll give an honest review with pros and cons. Pros; it's a really nice arcade with a variety of new and old games, the upper/lower floor split is great with the bowling and alcohol upstairs for adults, having credits on a card is convenient and better than carrying around coins, and it's located in a mall so there's plenty to do if you get tired of it. Cons; sometimes games are broken and unmarked so you're credits/money get stolen (happened to me, $5-10 down the drain), it's a very expensive arcade and ar

I adore this arcade. The options for games here is unlike anywhere else. Also the vibe. I just adore it! Also the DANCEaROUND game is my absolute favorite!!

Arcades are always fun with the family. This arcade seemed very overpriced. There were too many claw games and not enough younger kid games

So disappointing... It was my birthday and wanted to spend my it with my partner. We equally spent about 200$ on credits & food. We were playing the castlevania game and there was a problem with the machine, I tried telling the associate and she basically didn't help and also said "we have a lot of customers that don't read the signs, which I'm sure that you are but.." which was unnecessary and rude to say. There was an error on the machine and when we came back another couple came in and took the extra car

Went up stairs to get some beer I got a tall what I thought was glass and its plastic The beer tasted weird! And it smelled like the disinfectant they use to wash their dishes with!! I don't think it was worth $10
