I frequent Arcade Monsters often and have become friends with much of the staff there over the years it has been open. However most recently I am very disappointed with what the owner and upper management has been doing with this location.

For starters I was shocked to see that the drinks and coolers at what should be the bar have been moved to the kitchen. What is now the "bar", if you can call it that, is now a very unprofessional looking table in front an open and empty kitchen to which you can see inside of, including the storage in the back. Not to mention that this new bar location is next to the restrooms, which in my opinion is a disgusting place to be serving drinks near. I can no longer chat with the bartenders in what should be an interactive bar experience as it has been.

I'm also disappointed by the fact that they no longer serve food aside from the weekends. I would often come in during the weekdays after work to have a Cuban or hot wings while mingling with the bartenders before playing video games but it seems that is longer an option.

On top of that, they have also taken away entertainment from the bar too. While yes the do have several Nintendo Switches lining the bar, they once used to stream anime and other shows from Netflix. But now that has been replaced by menu screens when the menu was already available through a QR code. It's just plain redundant.

I really hope things change soon for this location because as of right now, I do not see myself wanting to hang out here like I used. I am very upset by the choices made by management to try and make this place "better". The owner had it right when they first opened the place but it seems the term "if it isn't broken, don't fix it" is lost among them. Get your act together Arcade Monsters,...

Great atmosphere to hangout with friends, play nostalgic and Japanese games, only $20 entrance for unlimited games, changed my 4 star review from 2021 to 1 star because this place had inattentive, uncaring employees. and there were at least 10 games out of commission. We were required to pay $20 for a 5 yr old who barely did anything but push buttons on games, and we were not offered $10 for her entrance and no games. Kitchen employee eith green hair and fixzy ears was pretty rude. The first time I came to order she took her phone and went around the corner instead of acknowledging me. The second time was offered free shots to minors I was with for google reviews, yet completely disregarded the actual adults who ordered. I ordered loaded fries and a hotdog and a drink. Simple. I agreed to onions on the hotdog yet they there was none. Literally watch the chef cook it when I brought it to the attention which means he simply didn’t want to prior.The fries should’ve been cheese & bacon fries with a side of cilantro garlic sauce and nacho cheese. Out of cheese & sauce. The main reason for me wanting fries. We were not compensated nor did it look like she even wanted to help make it right. She kept complaining that drink I ordered took work to shake out the can. Had many teenagers playing without wristbands even though “they have security” to patrol and ensure that doesn’t happen, seems like these kids were friends with the employees but it’s frustrating we paid $20 for a kid not playing but this was allowed even when they were aware. This place was amazing in 2021, better food, better vibes, caring and attentive staff. I’m okay never coming back. INo management around...
