My husband and I have been coming here the last couple weeks for date night, and tonight and last Thursday, Rachel was our server/bartender. She was amazing!! Orders were quickly and accurately taken and received, food and drinks were amazing! I had the Frozen Strawberry Modelito and the Dave’s Double cheese. My husband had the Hennessy Strawberry and the Sirloin. Everything was great Will definitely be asking for Rachel next time

Ordered 2 plates of Philly cheesesteak egg rolls and Frazzled Onions through Door Dash at a premium price. Look how they advertise the Frazzled Onions “Thin red onions strings hand-breaded and fried to a perfect golden crisp.”
Then look at how they arrived to us. Who in their right mind would have boxed up and sent out burnt food like this? Disrespectful and pathetic service.

I’m a regular customer at this location and have always enjoyed bringing my family here, which is why this experience was so disappointing.

This review is specifically about the Super Bowl promotion on Sunday, 2/8/26, which was advertised clearly and prominently in-store as “Unlimited Wings & Games” for $24.99 as part of a ticketed event in which I purchased 4.

I attended with my three daughters for what should have been an easy, fun family night. Unfortunately, the event was poorly planned, poorly executed, and poorly managed. These issues were not caused by the servers — they were clearly doing their best — but by management and operational failures.

Key issues:
• Drinks took 25 minutes to arrive.
• Wings were repeatedly delayed.
• Fries ordered for my youngest arrived over an hour later.
• No clarity was provided on what was included vs. upcharged (though cost was never the issue).

The most significant problem:
The “unlimited games” did not work on the game cards we paid for. It took approximately 25 minutes to troubleshoot. During that time, my daughters — who live two hours away and had school the next morning — just wanted to play. As a parent, I was forced to either cut their night short or spend more money to compensate for a promotion that wasn’t functioning.

I chose to spend hundreds of dollars more so my kids could enjoy the night — despite already paying for what was advertised as unlimited gameplay.

Management Interaction
After my girlfriend left a review expressing frustration, a manager approached us directly to ask about it. Since the conversation was initiated by management, I calmly explained the experience.

During that interaction, I was told that I “was not at a table with kids,” which was incorrect. There were only two tables with children present during the event, and ours was one of them. I also have personal photo evidence from that time showing my youngest daughter seated at our table.

Dave & Buster’s has audio and video surveillance, which can easily verify:
• Where the two tables with children were located
• Who was seated there
• And that my child was present during the event

Being given information that was factually incorrect instead of a straightforward acknowledgment of operational issues was the most frustrating part of the night.

A refund was offered, but this was never about the money. It was about:
• A misleading promotion
• Lack of preparation for a major event
• Poor communication
• And management not taking accountability when things went wrong

Bottom line:
Dave & Buster’s is a great concept and normally a fun, family-friendly place. But this promotion felt like a money trap for families, and one poorly managed event can undo years of goodwill. The staff deserves better leadership, and customers deserve honest execution of what’s advertised.

I hope this feedback reaches the right people, because situations like this are entirely preventable with better planning, transparency, and accountability.

Sincerely,
Tyler Polk

I brought my granddaughter to Dave and Busters for her Birthday. We had a great time in the arcade. Then we went to eat. All we ordered was Nachos
We didn’t get our food for 45 minutes. TK was our waitress and she said they were short handed in the kitchen and they also had a Big group of kids. I was glad she took the time to come and tell us. Later on Roger the manager came and apologized for the delay. I wasn’t happy but glad he came and talked to us. He made it right by not charging us for the food and gave my granddaughter a dessert. We left happy and the food was good. We will go back. Thank you TK and Roger

I made a last minute decision to come to this new location while I was visiting Gulfport, MS from Atlanta. I really enjoyed my time here. I didn’t eat but had a lot of fun on the games. I got the high score on some of the retro games in the Pac-Man’s Pixel Bash machine. If I ever come to Louisiana again, I’ll definitely come back here!

I had a great time with my girls here, and they certainly enjoyed themselves too. They have a large choice variety in games and everything is done on a score card, so it makes it a lot easier to play. Stop by with your kiddos and enjoy some laughter and fun.

I have gone twice so far. I’m not a fan of the food. Way better places to eat in Lafayette. Next time I think we will just eat nearby and then go play games. Lots of games are all still new, so nothing is broken yet. Wednesday is usually half price. If you do decide to eat there, don’t get your game card at the table. You have the gratuity for total, including card. Download the app before going reward and deals on there. If you do eat there. Do the survey on receipt, and will give you a $10 reward. take it to the points place for prizes. Checkout can add it to your card.

Revise…. my first review, I have been 6 times so for, and they just updated the menu and food. They fries and burgers were way better now, and we got cheese stick, which they didn’t have the first time. They were top-notch. It was our six time going play, but only my third time getting food. Didn’t think it was worth it. If the app didn’t give me a free burger, I don’t know if I would have eaten there again. So if you ate here when it first open you should give it one more go.

Service and food was great but the atmosphere that my and I witnessed was not a good look sitting down at in a booth closer to the kitchen doors and all we hear is yelling at our server two other coworkers I’m assuming who works there also was right behind us cursing and yelling at our server.Both women who apparently were using bad words towards our server went into the kitchen. When our server came to the table just to see if we needed anything else because we were just waiting for our wings to come up my husband and I asked her if everything was okay she said yes with a smile (our server was so nice to us and calm about everything) so I asked her who’s the manager on shift for today because we would like to speak to him so she went to get her manager but the manager did not come to the table he just looked at us. Dave And Busters is a place of fun for the customers and for the workers but when horrible workers just cursing at a worker it’s disrespectful to the customers, to all the workers who are all working there, and to the restaurant. Overall the boneless wings, Philly burger, the dangerous water, and the passion ranch Rita was so so so good for and service I rate a 10/10 but the restaurant atmosphere I rate a 1/10 and a big thank you to our server making sure that we were ok and enjoying our time and food she was amazing ( we forgot her name but her badge said she loves going fishing) (managers do better for the sake of your restaurant, customers, and workers)

Great place to hang with the kids. The food was good but the service really sucked took about 20 minutes for waitress to even make it to my table and it wasn’t that busy. Often times we had to get other people to find out waitress. My son loves the games which made it worth it but don’t leave home without your wallet. They have some really good oldies arcade games and new stuff. The gigantic PAC MAN was fun, as well as the air hockey which my son beat me at. They have a full bar and good variety of beer on tap. Overall we had a good time. Will probably be back again. I know he’s gonna want to come back with his friends for his birthday this summer….lol
