Reviews
Service was so so. We all individually ordered our food using the QR code. The server came to drop off the food that didn’t bother to tell us the name of the person who ordered the food. We had a big party and we all ordered similar food. It got quite messy and it was very inefficient.
Food was mediocre. I was expecting so much more. Looking at the pricing of the food, I was expecting quality food. I had surf and turf quesadilla and it was greasy. Salad was okay but it was overpriced. Cauliflower appetizer would have tasted so much better if it was grilled/roasted. Lastly I tried the s’mores dessert and was extremely disappointed that it was placed in a plastic jar. would have been nice if it was in a mason jar…
Overall, I think I will come back if I just need a place to hang out with friends. I wouldn’t come back for the food/beer.
It’s nice that they have a QR code for each table. We can scan the QR code and order whatever I want for my group and pay for only my tab, no need to wait for the check and split the check among many people/groups. It’s very convenient.
There are many food and drink choices ranging from burgers, fries to salad and ceviche. I liked their burgers, fries and chicken tenders. They things for everyone to do and eat.
The parking garage offers two hours free parking which is great. I would go back whenever I’m in the area.
Good selection of beers and drinks.
The food looked good. I picked the Fairy Mozzarella Burger which was a big disappointment. For whatever reason it had raisins in it which is not mentioned on the list and Mozzarella was bon existent. One key issue with this burger was it lacked any spiciness. The ketchup on the side was more spicy than the burger.
I would not recommend this burger. Our party had a variety of items and they all seemed good and enjoyed them.
The place also offers arcade games for kids and adults to enjoy.
Where it lacks receiving my 5 stars are the dishes that we ordered as well as the bowling alley and arcade games. The fish in the fish and chips were dry and had an unpleasant bitter after taste. I’m not sure if it was the batter or the oil used to fry them in but it wasn’t good at all. I would’ve preferred a classic fish with maybe Panko batter or just a simple thick batter then deep fried to a light, golden, crispy and juicy filet. The burgers were just “ok” nothing to rave about, just a burger on a brioche bun.
The arcade games seem to run pretty steep. I charged up a card with $25 bucks and was had to refill after 10 minutes. Sure they’re no Chuck E Cheese but I expected the gameplay to last a while longer. We tried to get a lane at the bowling alley but was told we had to wait 2 hours for one to open since we did not have a reservation.
Overall, I feel that we were taken care of by the staff especially because we came on a Saturday. We had a great table as well and were able to watch the game on the many TVs they have up.
I still recommend checking Draft Republic out. They’re drinks are mixed well and the beer beer selection is one of the best that I have seen. Just know about reserving in advance if you want to bowl and hopefully there is some improvement on the fish and chips.
