Alley Oops Uptown

So much fun! Tasty food at very reasonable prices, excellent service, and tons of arcade games for everyone. The kids played for almost two hours on just a $20 game card! Meanwhile, the adults enjoyed watching the French Open men’s final on the big screen TV. A perfect spot for families or large groups. Plus, no wait at all for Sunday lunch—highly recommend!

I recently visited Alley Oops Uptown with a group of eight, and it turned out to be a lively, memorable outing for both adults and kids. Although the initial 45-minute wait time felt daunting, the arcade made the time fly by. The kids were instantly entertained by a vast selection of arcade games and claw machines, giving them plenty of options to stay engaged.

One of the standout features was the massive fish tank, which both captivated the children and provided a relaxing ambience during our wait. It’s a small touch, but one that made the environment feel a bit more special and unique.

Once seated, we were impressed with the menu choices. There was something for everyone, from standard kid-pleasers to more creative dishes for the adults. Our meals arrived quickly, and every dish was delicious—fresh, hot, and satisfying. The staff went above and beyond to be friendly and accommodating despite how busy the place was, which really added to the positive atmosphere.

A particularly fun touch: the kids’ meals came served on frisbees, which turned out to be a huge hit. Not only did it keep the kids excited at the table, but they also got to take a practical souvenir home.

The only drawback was the noise level—it’s a decidedly loud environment, especially during peak hours. While this is understandable given the arcade and overall energy of the space, those seeking a quieter dining experience should keep this in mind.

Overall, Alley Oops Uptown gets high marks for being a kid-friendly, highly engaging option for group outings. Between the entertainment, tasty food, and attentive staff, it’s well worth visiting.

It's a fun place, especially for children, but also quite loud until later on in the evening. This is not surprising considering all of the arcade games they have. The food we ordered for dinner was very good. They have more on the menu than typical casual restuarants. It had a fully stocked bar for grown-ups, too.
