This place was a fun place to eat. We happened across them on Google and thought why not check it out, since its a pretty unique kinda place. When we got there the staff was super friendly, explaining a bit about their menu and how the games are free to play etc. we both ordered double smash burgers with fries and the food didn't take super long to make but it was long enough that you know it's fresh and not a basic frozen patty that's thrown on the grill. I hope they get to stick around for a long time cuz it's a unique place to go for sure and alot of fun

The atmosphere and service were fantastic. My son found this place and it was a great lunch stop for a bite to eat and a little retro gaming fun. I actually give 4 stars for food on personal preference, but I'm not going to mark them down for my tastebuds. The burgers were perfect. We however didn't like the loaded fries. In the future I'd just order cheese fries with the cheese on the side. They gave plenty of cheese (which most places short you on) but I prefer to dip my fries so they're not soggy.

Nice restaurant with a relaxing ambiance. The food is good. Very filling & reasonably priced. A lot of the games didn’t work at full capacity, but if you’re playing casually you’ll be fine.

If you're on the hunt for the best burger in town, look no further! This place absolutely nails it with their amazing burger patties—juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection every single time. The fries are equally impressive, crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, a perfect complement to the burger. But the real showstopper? The Nashville chicken. It's out of this world! Spicy, tender, and bursting with flavor, it's easily the best I've ever had. Incredible food, friendly service, and a great vibe—this spot has it all. Five stars, without a doubt!

I loved it here, I just brought my boyfriend in to try it with me for the first time. For 10 per person we got a cheeseburger, fries, and a drink. We also got ranch dressing on the side to dip our fries. They take cash and card. They also have a kiosk you can use to check out secret menu items, or to get your order through when there’s a line. Each table has its own video game setup. There’s a half hour limit for the games, which is fair and convenient because you can play while you wait for your meal. They also provide mini wipes at the tables if you play after your meal you can clean up before grabbing the game controllers. I loved it here, I’ll definitely go again soon!

This place is awesome! The food was really fast and delicious. They did a fantastic job with the smash burger, it was juicy and flavorful. The Retro Loaded Fries were also great, although I didn't expect the cheese sauce to be so spicy The bacon was phenomenal and super crispy. I wasn't sure what to expect with the milkshakes, but they had cereal blended in which was an interesting texture! We tried to play the games at 2 different tables but the controllers seemed not to want to work quite right for us.
