I first heard of this place on the news. As a retro gamer myself, I had to check it out.
The place is a Super Mario Bros. theme'd restaurant. They have TVs mainly for Super Mario Bros games but I did see some Sega Genesis consoles that had NBA JAM playing. Me and my nephew stuck around to play Smash Bros on the Wii.
The staff was cool and friendly. They helped us out in deciding what we would like to have. We ended up getting their special of Pizza and Wings.
The restaurant screams nostalgia. They have tons of choices of what to play while you wait for your food.
When the food came in....
The wings were ok. We ordered the BBQ sauce on top and it tasted normal, just like any hole in the wall restaurant with a deep fryer and the ability to put sauce on their food. The wings were crisp and cooked but nothing special.
The pizza however wasn't up to par to what I expected. The dough was still white and the ingredients did taste like it came straight out of a grocery store brand can. It's not terrible food however in a place like this, I expected a different recipe or exclusive taste. Without the concept of video games and geek culture surrounding the tables, its just another pizza spot.
The place is still a new establishment so I can't be too harsh with a review. They are still cool people and have lots of room for improvement. Can't wait to see what lies ahead in the future of this business.
