The season pass is horrible. Only limited amount of tickets which only 1k which is nothing. Also I paid over $100 for a pass that doesn't let me use it on holidays. The food also sucks.

Dave and Buster's 21001 N Tatum Blvd Suite 44-1400, Phoenix, AZ 85050 It seems that our experiences with Dave and Buster's keeps getting better and better. My husband and I moved here from Mississippi, and I can tell you our taste in food, is picky. We love well seasoned food, not just salt and pepper. Even the fries at this establishment are seasoned well. All our food was delicious and our weekly outings now include Dave and Buster's. I'm so glad we found this place and consider it a blessing to know each time we visit, it's going to be a great and fun experience. It's a part of Desert Ridge Shopping Marketplace in North Phoenix.

Dave and Buster’s… what is there to say? The arcade was genuinely fun. The food? Surprisingly good. But the moment it came time to cash out tickets, everything fell apart. My friend had nearly 10,000 tickets stolen — yes, stolen — by management. He had earned those points fair and square from a machine that continuously prompted “Spin Again,” clearly encouraging continued play. When the machine stopped awarding points and he went to redeem them, the managers refused to honor the ticket total. They chalked it up to a "mechanical error" and refused to take responsibility. No apology. No solution. Just a cold dismissal and a wiped balance. That’s not a business. That’s theft. No different than a rigged casino that gets upset when you win too much. This wasn’t an honest mistake — it was corporate pickpocketing. Check your employee logs. You’ll find the truth.

Purchased a summer pass due to info told to me and then the info received was different. Corporate office lies also. Time out period online stated 30 sec wait but it was 45 at most machines. Was told they made it better by changing the time to 45 on line.

Bought the Silver Season Pass (actually 3 of them). Kids discovered no tickets are given with this pass. I went to manager, he said we could call customer service to get a refund. They said NO, Refund. Beward of the Summer Season Passes. I am out over $200.

We'd always enjoyed visits to Dave & Buster's locations in the past. The food was always good (even if slightly over-priced) and there were lots of fun games. Typically we'd visit at a time during the week when the place wouldn't be jam-packed, so that service and access to games would be better. We decided to visit a different D & B's recently because that location has old-fashioned skee-ball, a family favorite. We expected that with global economic changes this year and by visiting on a weekend that the visit would be more much more costly and food service might not be as good. However, it is other changes at D&B's that caused us to take a brief look at the menu and gaming options and then turn right around and walk out the door! First, the cost of a blank game card has been raised from two dollars to three. The 'structure' of the 'experience' has changed so that it is no longer convenient to go play games first then sit down to a meal. One of the payment options (roughly $60 ) is a TIMED experience for playing games, limited to just 90 minutes! That sounds like fraudulent advertising, because on the menu it says "unlimited game play" at that price! So how is turning off the card at 90 minutes "unlimited?" We were stilling willing to spend time and money at D&B's at that point, but the proverbial straw that broke the camel's back is when I asked the staff (there were TWO of them standing around right there!) at the entrance podium/desk to take my order for new game cards loaded for 90-minute play. That's when she said, "Oh, you have to use the kiosk!" There were three GIANT touch screens by which orders must be placed. Neither of the first two screens worked, so she directed us to the third one; that one was sluggish and froze. Then she said that she would call the manger or we could go all the way to the back of the establishment to try another kiosk. Say what??? Three that don't work so we're supposed to walk all the way to the back of the restaurant to another one that might or might not work? The manager didn't show up during this time, and we waited at least five minutes or so. Other people began to line up behind us and that's when we turned back around and left. In general, I don't suffer foolishness gladly! Just how foolish is it a business would have two employees just hanging out at a sign-in station, doing a whole lot of nothing and not be able to take orders from customers? D&B's used to have real live people taking orders from customers. Now they seem to think that having people put their hands all over filthy giant touch screens is a good idea! Who knows just how often they clean those miserable things! Skee-ball is still lots of fun, but I'll probably wait until there's an opportunity at a state fair or something to play it. Dave & Buster's is definitely NOT worth the price and aggravation anymore.

Really disappointing experience. The drinks were super weak barely any alcohol, just tasted watered down. One of our friends got sick from the food, and my chicken sandwich was undercooked. The fried chicken was cold and had no flavor. The games were alright, but some machines took our tokens without working, which was frustrating. Definitely expected better.
