When I eat at Dave and Busters I sort of know I’m going to order food that is going to be unhealthy but delicious. This isn’t the type of place I’d order a healthy salad or a chicken breast, no ways, I’m going for the nachos or the French Dip or a cheeseburger! That’s what we ended up ordering, and everything was pretty tasty. They had a play and eat promotion so we also bought a $40 play thing along with one of the dishes which essentially made our $17 nachos cost around $4. I forget how all of it was arranged. I also got a nice cold Blue Moon beer, so refreshing! The games are sort of what you’d expect, our daughter loved the hungry hungry hippos game and has been playing with one of the cars she “earned” from her tickets. We also did a rubber ducky claw machine downstairs and it went crazy and allowed us to play 5 times in a row, so my daughter was ecstatic to win 5 ducks with 1 play. If this was just a restaurant I’d give it maybe 4 stars, but as a whole experience I give it 5 stars as long as you set your expectations on what D&B is going to be.

My Parmesan Chicken was just okay, with the pasta being a bit drier than the last visit, but nothing I can’t get over. My boyfriend got the loco moco and was shocked to see the patty cooked medium/medium well but ate it regardless, and he rates it a 8/10. Our go-to appetizer before a meal that really sets the tone, is the XXL Garlic Parmesan Truffle Fries. Good thing we finished the entire tray of fries before our actual dinner so we were satisfied already. It comes with a must-try Garlic Pesto Aioli sauce and pairs really well 🤌🏼 The service this time was alright, guy appeared to be new because he had a trainer checking in with us as well. I will say the trainer tended to us more than the server but again, nothing I can’t get over. Upstairs the arcade is pretty average but I do notice the relatively new additions to the games and you can be entertained for a good hour or two especially if you have kids. Good luck if you sit at the bar and the seats aren’t exactly in front of the bartenders’ face. When we sat, we waited about 8 mins to have our order taken. After we had been waiting already for a few minutes, another couple sat on the same side as us, and the bartender immediately went over to them and I had to make a motion with my head toward the bartender for them to notice and get our order. Luckily the drinks are nicely made each time.

This place is an ultimate destination for all your entertainment needs. Whether you're craving delicious food, refreshing drinks, or looking to indulge in gaming, this venue has it all! After catching a movie, my friends and I consistently find ourselves gravitating towards this spot to savor a cold beer and delectable food while immersing ourselves in arcade games or shooting hoops on the basketball. The convenience of reloading your card and simply scanning it adds to the seamless experience. However, the highlight for us has to be the VR (Virtual Reality) experience, which never fails to deliver an exhilarating and unforgettable adventure. We absolutely love it!"

I came here just for these power cards. My son has been in love with this game, books, toys etc and now the movie drops next Friday. Thank you Dave & Buster's for making a little boys day!!

Love that the parking is free. We out here on a Sunday afternoon so it's pretty busy. There's a big variety of games--some I had never seen before like an axe throwing one but some were our kids favorites. The ambience is nice. The staff are super friendly and helpful. I highly recommend coming out here if you want to hit up a huge arcade.

Went to my company Christmas party at Dave and busters. Great food. Bacon wrapped shrimp was the best. We had a space that wasn’t open to the public. Our server MJ took care of about 20 of us and never has to question who ordered what. Great service and pretty smile.

It is a great place to break the ice if on your first date with a late lunch. We received stellar service being seated and served with attention and smiles. A winning Game atmosphere. They have several screens to watch a choice of games, a variety of Beers, and a great menu to satisfy your pallet, One should definitely try their tasty Appetizers! Your adrenaline will escalate as you enter the Upstairs arcade, where prizes can be won. Load your game card and get ready for challenges and victories. If you're a different kind of player, go up one more level to the rooftop bar when they feature live music and night sky and great vibes. I will leave you at that to explore Dave n Busters and reach your highest scores. Parking downstairs is an added advantage. Let's Play!🌺❤️🌿😊love it!

Great arcade machines of all ages, to include adults. And tickets earned are automatically added to your card, so you save yourself from having to deal with that. Food and games are a little pricey, but it is worth it.

We came for lunch and were able to be seated promptly for our party of 10. Our server was great, polite and always made sure we were taken care of. Food was delicious and afterwards, we had a fun couple of hours playing with their endless arcade of games for kids and adults of all ages.

It's hard to complain about a place that my family has only had positive experiences with. We've been going here for years and truly enjoy ourselves each time. The only thing I could wish for is more gluten free/sensitive food options, and cheaper/better game chips deals.

I enjoyed winning a huge care bear and playing the horse races while my kids played everything else. What a fun and enjoyable place for your family! My kids absolutely loved every game and the staff is super friendly. Great food and drinks, and great prices! Thank you so much 5 million stars!

Many many years ago my friends and I have gone to D&B for a relaxation night with about 4 couples on dates. D&B had everything that I needed. Billiards and the arcade was very fun. It's a very great place to both have fun and take on dates.

Haven't been in a very long time due to Covid. Presently surprised at their drink specials. They have great protocols in place for adults and kids, staff seems happy and I think they renovated downstairs as it seems to have a lot more space and seating. I do like the three large screens as well. The menu was also surprisingly diverse and pretty good and reasonable. We were served by A.R. She was new but was very personable, helpful and did a great job. She made our evening much more pleasurable and convinced me to be back for Sunday football and it's specials, just from her service. (1/2 off cocktails- no joke!). Great job guys and great hire! 🤙✌ 11/21/21 Went to watch the football games. Decent breakfast menu starting @ $11. Well priced except for steak and eggs at $28. Wish they had the same happy hour drink specials . Only certain beers which Anheuser Busch drinkers would be unhappy about. Cathy was my server. Absolutely great, helpful, informative, courteous. Great job! Will be back simply because of their service. 🙂🤙✌ 9/2022 Been a little bit. Went for the new football season. Not much has changed. Breakfast is over kinda fast, even for early football games. Place was packed because beginning of the season. Value of the updated menus not that great. Best bang might be the Loco Moco, which was not bad. Staff is not trained / supervised too well. There are a handful of good workers but not entirely their fault for the periodic lapses in service. They do mean well. The young kid who busses tables and resets is one of their hardest workers. No managers to be found on the floor. In all, menus are a little meh and drinks can be pricey. Food and presentations are also a let down for the price. Overall, seems like some kind of management change over the past year has reduced the level of things. If we ever decide to go back, we'll see if I'm off base, but, probably won't get that chance. 🤔 10/2022 Still about the same. Surprisingly, chicken avocado wasnt bad. Cathy is the best worker I've had, not saying the others dont work hard too. She's always friendly, consistent, communicates and works hard. So does the quiet bus person but I don't know his name. Kid works hard too, Hope management is aware!! ✌️

Super fun place, so many arcade machines and food/drink options. We came on a half price Wednesday and played for 2 hours only only $18 with the apps bonus credit. Well worth the time and money. Wish we had places like this back home.

I've been to Dave & Buster's before but this was first time visiting the one here in Hawaii. I came here for a friend's birthday party and we only sat in the dining portion, therefore I will not be reviewing the gaming section on this review. Parking: I was a little anxious about parking when I realized DB's was downtown, however, I was pleasantly surprised to find that they did have a garage so you don't have to worry about parking on the street. Food/Service/Ambiance: We came on a Wednesday night so it wasn't too crowded at all. The food was great and the vibe was fantastic! Bar food can usually be hit or miss but I must say, the food was superb! I ordered the buffalo wings and they were hot and well covered in sauce. We also had the nachos and pretzel bites with cheese which were all great pupus. The pretzels I definitely recommend as the cheese was just amazing. It was so good, I ended up putting it on my fries. Our waiter was friendly and very attentive even considering how big of a group we had. We never had to wait too long before he was back to fill up our drinks. I also was excited to learn that they do Unlimited Wings on Game Days and their happy hour runs until 7pm!
