This place is really nice. We had ladies night out and we opted for bowling. I was skeptical especially with the old bowling alley old smoke stench. Boy, am I glad I went. No leftover smoke smell. Parking was on point. The staff were very helpful. The food was pricey but its not your average alley food. It was quite... More

I attended a reserved party here last week and had fun. Mostly we bowled, but video games were popular with the kids, too. We had food (sandwiches, pizza, hummus dip, crudites etc.) while we waited for our turn at bowling. Food was prepared well, and restocked as needed. Our wait staff was courteous and helpful.

The inside is really beautiful. The servers are very helpful and they let you bring your cake. We ordered food for the parents which gave them a reason to stay.

Upscale bowling with an impressive, sports bar and nightclub atmosphere. Two bars with excellent food, service while bowling. Very friendly, efficient staff. Bartender told us they'll be renovating soon while staying open. It's dark and loud with techno music (like disco from my era). Neon lit bowling pins and lighted lanes. Electronic scoring displayed for everyone to see how you're... More

Bright lights in a darkened room, TV screens over each lane with different shows, music, and background noise -- this is not a place for people who are intolerant of overstimulation. The bowling lanes are in good shape, the food is pretty good, and it's a lot of fun. But if you want good value, drive out I-270 to AMF... More
