A night out at Dave & Buster's

New video games, new food items and new drinks; that was the pitch on a recent email that arrived into the inbox at Nelson's News on wsbtv.com to check out Dave & Buster's.

For those not familiar, Dave & Buster's is a bar, restaurant and massive arcade combined into one. If you've ever driven on I-75 in Marietta, chances are you've seen one of the three locations around Atlanta. There's a Dave & Buster's in Duluth and Lawrenceville, too.

A snow cone or Miami ice anyone?

Fried and crispy on the outside, light on the inside, these bite-sized potato puffs were tossed with garlic butter and parmesan cheese. The poppin- potatoes were served with a homemade sweet and spicy ketchup, too.

“When you visit us to eat, drink and play, you will definitely find something new at Dave & Buster’s,” said Dolf Berle, president and chief operating officer, “We want everyone to come in and check out these new games, and then play five of them for free.”

Dave & Buster’s rolled out eight new games this summer, including some that are exclusive to the dining and entertainment chain. Mobile gamers will certainly recognize some of the titles; Temple Run and Cut the Rope join other former apps like Fruit Ninja and Doodle Jump to make the jump from phones to giant-sized versions. Dave & Buster's has put 20 new games into locations in the last year.

On the menu, Dave & Buster's now offers much more than just the typical bar fare. Sure, you can get potato skins, burgers and beer, but Nelson's News gave a few other items a shot, too. For the entree, the mac and cheese got the call. Grilled seasoned chicken breast and applewood smoked bacon, tossed with cavatappi pasta and creamy aged sharp cheddar cheese sauce, topped with a garlic breadcrumb crust and baked brown and bubbly. That's the description for the dish. To say it was good would be an understatement.

"We’re the only place where you can get our new Potato Chip-Crusted Chicken,” said Sean Gleason, CMO at Dave & Buster's. “Chicken breaded with crushed potato chips and a rich French onion dip gravy make this unlike any fried chicken you’ve ever had.”

“Temple Run was a hugely popular mobile app, but playing it on a 42-inch screen with the opportunity to win cool stuff takes it to the next level," said Kevin Bachus, senior vice president of entertainment & games strategy. "Where else can you win an iPad for being great at Temple Run?”
