I have been here before and had wonderful service. This time not so much. If you look at the video I shared. the pile of nachos was cold stiff lol. I watched it sit on the warmer for like 10 mins or more. Its all good tho. I took a few bites out of a family members burger and it was so good. I wanted to convince them to eat my nachos instead and I have the rest of that delicous burger. The nachos used to be good here, maybe it was a one off due to the server/ bartender girl being too busy.

The MeatHead Burger was good! Loaded Tots topped it off.
Milkshakes were the icing on the cake for a good night out.
Game selection was decent. Chill environment. Coming from Texas, this place will definitely be on our list to hit again when we visit.

Today i visited Las Cruces for the first time all the way from Canada. Everyone that i know that has been to Cruces recommended me to go to RAD. My experience at RAD was deeply disappointing and uncomfortable, largely due to the conduct of one bartender Carmen who displayed behavior that came across as blatantly racist and openly rude. From the moment I approached the bar, the tone was hostile and dismissive, in stark contrast to how other patrons were treated. It was impossible not to notice the difference in attitude, service speed, and basic courtesy being extended selectively.
Simple requests were met with eye rolls, sharp responses, and an unnecessary level of aggression that felt completely unprovoked. Meanwhile, customers of a different background were greeted warmly, joked with, and served promptly. This inconsistency didn’t feel accidental — it felt intentional, and that’s what made the situation so unsettling.
What made matters worse was the lack of professionalism. Bartenders represent the atmosphere and values of an establishment, and in this case, that standard was completely absent. No one should feel belittled or singled out while spending their money and time at a bar, especially in a setting that’s supposed to be social and welcoming.
RAD may have the potential to be a great spot, but experiences like this overshadow everything else. Until there is accountability, proper training, and a serious commitment to respectful, unbiased service, I would strongly caution others who expect to be treated with basic dignity and respect. No drink, no ambiance, and no reputation is worth tolerating discrimination. Definitely will not be visiting again i hope this situation is escalated and investigated

We were pleasantly surprised with the quality of the food. The quesadillas taste like the ones we make at home, the nachos were filling and the tater tots were a fave of everyone’s. The veggie burger was a little dry but that did not take away from everything else. We were greeted within three minutes of sitting down, and our server was nice. The food came quickly too! The games were good. We spent about $25 hours worth of tokens in an hour.

Very loud, overpriced games. Men get pat down but I guess women aren’t considered a threat. The tron drink was decent. My brother nearly got his hand scaled in the men’s restroom, so use caution, but I guess at least you make sure you have clean hands . Decor is interesting. There was old and young people there. Weird mix of vibes to be honest.

We spent time at the Las Cruces farmers market and needed something to eat. We walked into Rad and found it was a huge arcade, bar, and grill. If you’re looking for a nice quiet place, move on. I love arcades. We had a seat by the grill. Our server was very nice and brought us nice cold beers. We both had the burger and fries. These were very good. As we ate our meal, we watched folks on the Dance Dance game. It was so much fun watching others laughing and playing games. I do have a pic of the urinals and the pic above them. Gotta laugh at their humor.

1-Star Review: Disappointed and Confused by the Treatment
I visited RADS Retrocade on 11/14 with my cousin while I was in town from out of state. When we first arrived, everything seemed great our bartender was friendly, the small bites were good, and we were genuinely having a good time. We were chatting with people around us, ordering drinks, and even had a couple of drinks sent over to us. It felt like the perfect night out.
After spending some time on the patio, we came back inside to continue enjoying the evening. That’s when the vibe completely shifted. Suddenly, every bartender behind the bar was ignoring us to the point where the people around us started asking what was going on because they noticed it too.
Eventually, the bartender who originally served us came over. When I tried ordering shots, she told us that management had instructed her to “slow us down.” At that point we had already been there for over two hours and were nowhere near causing any kind of disturbance. It was confusing, embarrassing, and honestly upsetting to be singled out like that without reason. They even allowed me to order shots for someone else just not for us.
I am not an angry or confrontational person, and nothing about our behavior warranted this kind of treatment. Unfortunately, this experience completely ruined what had been a fun night. I won’t be returning, and I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone who wants to relax, enjoy drinks, and spend their money without feeling ostracized for no apparent reason.

I felt like I fell into a time warp.. the old arcade games I played as a kid were great. The old, cassette tapes, the music and music videos took me back to the 80’s and 90’s.. great atmosphere.
The server, Azuree, was very courteous and friendly. Kudos to her and all her hard work.
From the quesadillas to the cheeseburgers, it was all great. Food was made fresh and fast. The milkshake was absolutely delicious.
If you’re looking for a fun family atmosphere, this is the place. If adults are looking to have fun, this is also the place. I will definitely come back to this place next time I’m in town.

I went to Rad a couple weeks ago and I got the garbage pail nachos. I let the server know that the guacamole was brown and he told me that because its called the garbage pail nachos they wait two days before they serve it, then he scraped off some of it and gave it back. Then the waitress lost my card and denied losing my card and walked away until I talked to the manager and he found my card and apologized on their behalf which was nice but still stressful. I love their games and drinks but I don’t love being treated like that.
