No food just drinks. Very cool place for anything nerdy you're into. I love star wars, so this was great. Thank you.

Saw other reviews say they paid 5 bucks to get in..we didn't pay anything on a Saturday night. Music is good, servers are great. The place is grubby and cold, but lots of fun things to play and see. Also they have wrestling out the back.

It was honestly at most okay. Most of the arcade stuff wasn't working properly when we tried it. It would just eat the credits without letting us play and/or most of it just wasn't really working. The drinks I feel are a bit overpriced because you are getting them in plastic cups to start with and each drink is $20 at the very least. The bowling alley looks a bit run down and honestly it's just not worth it. You'll get maybe two hours of entertainment tops,and that's pushing it a bit. The service was great, but everything else was pretty meh. The music was nice, but the place feels a bit too cramped if you wanna dance to it, or just walk around in general. Some parts were blocked off, I don't know if that was on purpose or just them remodeling but it looked okay.If you really want a nice nerdy experience, go to Player 1, I feel like it's better than here.

Vegas Reviews

I came here with a group of friends. We've been trying to hit up some of the nerdy spots in Vegas and this was obviously on the list. The first issue is that it was legitimately dirty in there. Like garbage on the ground levels of dirty. It was dead, which is fine, but when we walked in the bartender seemed annoyed? It was a strange reaction given how slow it was. You think he'd be happy for some business. Our group felt like the vibe was off, so we each ordered one drink and left. The drinks were okay, nothing special. The atmosphere was cool overall, but the bartender and the general condition didn't give us a great impression and we probably won't be back any time soon.

Really cool spot with bowling alley lanes, arcade, wrestling and science fiction memorabilia. Drink selection is decent. Marcus the bartender/security was very nice and efficient. They have a couple of specialty events that would be worth seeing. If you are an adult and in to any of these things, great place. They need to sell merch for their business. Didn't see a food menu. Loved it and will go back.

Stopped here with a group of seven while on vacation. Based on the pictures we found, we we're looking forward to the visit. We weren't aware of the $5.00 cover, but decided to pay it and check the place out. Boy were we disappointed! First thing we noticed was how filthy the place was! So very dirty! No way would we order anything to eat or drink from there. The place was run down, dumpy and just so very disappointing! One of the women in our group went to the restroom and she said there was dried up vomit all over the bathroom. Seriously didn't touch anything, sit anywhere or order anything. One quick walk around the place and we were out!
