I'm a grown adult, yet my eyes light up as soon as I see all the blinking lights in the Midway. Let's just say, I visit often enough that I can spot a new game as soon as I walk in. Games are reasonably priced (some take tokens - some deduct points). Join their e-mail club. They won't spam you, but you'll get coupons for free food or extra game play. Can't think of the last time I've been there where I haven't redeemed a coupon - free appetizer, free Red Bull Smoothie, free $10 game play ... and you'll get a sweet coupon on your birthday.
Dave & Buster's has a full restaurant (you can also eat in the Midway, although gets pretty loud and kids are typically running past your table). Food is good, although can't seem to get past their Huli Huli Salmon - comes with this d-e-l-i-c-i-o-u-s citrus rice, green beans and a huge portion of salmon with a sweet glaze. Almost always have leftovers, just b/c the portion is so big. Sometimes spring on an appetizer, too. Try their chips with salsa, guac and queso. Their chips come out warm and are light and crispy and the queso is plentiful! (see pics of food)
Play enough and you'll become a Gold Member. Perks - cheaper game play. So, when your friend is dishing out 3.5 points to battle you in Super Trivia (one of my favorites), you're only paying 2.5. Definitely check out Derby Owner's Club - a horse racing simulation game. It's a little pricey to start, but taking home that winning purse and knowing that you've raised a championship thoroughbred will make you want to adorn a silly hat and ask the bartender if he can whip up a mint julep! And, yes, they'll come and take drink orders while you're playing. Depending on what day/time you're there, they have different prices, too, so definitely take advantage of the off-peak times to really build up your horse.
Redeemed 38,000 tickets this past visit and am now the proud owner of a Nintendo DS Lite. Yes, you read that right - thirty eight thousand tickets. Their Winner's Circle has a pretty nice variety of prizes - chotchkes perfect for your desk at work to pretty cool stuff (DVD recorder, smaller kitchen appliances and a pink gas-powered scooter). Please spare me in doing the math to determine how much I really paid to "win" my DS. I'd like to hold onto the winning feeling for as long as possible!
D&B - why can't you come to the east side? Or, at least, meet me half way!
