The decor and menu descriptions might lead you to think you’ll get a better meal, but look to the bowling lanes as a standard. The food is slightly better than the average bowling alley, and slightly more expensive. I’d recommend the pizza if you’re going to eat here, and the fries were pretty good too.
You can feel Gale Miller’s shaky hand guiding this restaurant to be more bland and a little weird. A bizarre corner sign recalls words often attributed to Brigham Young for no apparent reason, “This must be the place.” Servers are running meals, taking orders, and cleaning, which is often the sign of a restaurant trying to cheap out on staff expenses. If anyone remembers The Mayan, I get major Mayan vibes. Great atmosphere with disappointing food, even for the cost.
As you can see in the image, the nachos came out looking so nice I was excited, but I was soon to be let down. They’d used cheap thin chips that fell apart under moisture. Apparently trying to compensate, they left cheese off the chips almost entirely. That’s right, nachos with no cheese. It was the processed viscous fluid cheese, and it caused the chips to wilt completely in the few spots they’d dabbed it on. The meat was tender, but awfully dry. Some cheese would have helped! There were too many jalapenos dumped on (probably a full can of whatever they opened) and there was no layering.
The fries, as I said, were pretty good, but paired with a fry sauce that tasted strongly of mayonnaise. I know there’s mayo in most fry sauce, but it shouldn’t be the dominant flavor. Both the sweet potato and regular fries were done well.
I cancelled the wings when I learned the garlic parm is mayo based. After the fry sauce I was worried about eating mayo wings. Chicken tenders for the kid were okay within the context of a bowling alley that is more interested in keeping you there than in establishing a restaurant.
Pizza was the high point for me, as it was a step above most bowling alley food. It did get chewy when cold, so if you’re going to eat it don’t waste time on sides and more. I am hesitant to praise it as there are Pizza places in Daybreak that blow it away, but in a pinch it’ll do.
You could enjoy one of the smaller shows from the patio or just enjoy the (extremely artificial) green space in the courtyard. Sitting on a nice day with the lanai open recalls a nicer place like Kona Grill. It would be a lot of fun to sit on the patio with a beer while ordering a pizza. Add church-doctrine-as-corporate-policy complaint to the list of disappointments.
Luckily, it looks like there will be real restaurants moving in soon. Hopefully the Miller Corp doesn’t exert too much influence in ruining them.
Overall not a great place to eat, but it’s not a bad option if your kid wants pizza between playing in the arcade and watching a movie.

Slow service and inconsistency holds back potential.
We live near Downtown Daybreak and would love for this place to provide a reliably good experience, but unfortunately it doesn’t. We’ve been twice so far, and both times we had a long wait to see a server and then to get our food. The employees are courteous and presumably are doing their best, but they don’t seem to have the best training or very effective procedures in place.
Tonight we saw a family come in and then give up on ordering after about 10 minutes and leave. Then on our way out, another group was complaining about how they had been waiting 30 minutes for some of their food to come out. The dining room was almost empty, so I’m not sure exactly what the issue is. Maybe they need a higher volume of customers to justify beefing up the operations, but it will be hard to get there without making it more inviting in the meantime.
The confusion on the front service end also seems to extend back into the kitchen. I ordered the Bangkok Peanut Butter Burger based on the menu description, but when it came out, it seemed to be missing several of the advertised ingredients. Our waitress said she had never seen it before to know how it’s supposed to look. The manager gave us a discount since weren’t satisfied. We appreciate that, but I still don’t have any confidence that anyone on staff knows how to make the burger correctly, so I probably wouldn’t order it again. We will be taking a break from this place for now until or unless we hear that they’ve made some improvements.
PS – Be careful with young kids watching the screens here if they are sensitive. Our 3 year old was traumatized to tears from some of the violent PG-13 movie previews they frequently have on repeat. When we go near the screens, she is afraid to open her eyes and keeps her hands over her face. I think they want to attract families, but the vibe tends to be kind of adult.

We’ve been here a few times before events at the new ballpark. At first I was giving the benefit of the doubt for a new establishment but at this point I want to make sure management has feedback. Servers need to be aware of where they are and timing of the events next to them. There’s been zero urgency each time we’ve come and it’s taken way longer than it should. Also this last time we ordered a few appetizers but the sever didn’t tell us they were out of one until after we were more than halfway done eating our food that did come. At that point it was too late to order something else. Super frustrating.
This area is built to be a sports and entertainment district but if the anchoring entertainment fails, the concept fails.

Fine dining in a family friendly environment! I have been absolutely in love with everything I’ve tried there. The Braised short rib tacos are dynamite. My kids rate the chicken tenders as best ever.

I really like this place. I’ve been more than 5 times so far. I think the food is quite good. I’ve had the short rib tacos, two of the pizzas, the caesar salad, and the quesadillas. I’ve enjoyed every one of them. I think it’s a good price for what you get.

Service is terrible and very slow. Place was empty and it took 15 mins for anyone to even acknowledge we were here. We even waited 30 mins for food. It’s also a dry diner, so you can’t get any alcohol while you bowl.
