The Raving Gamer Bistro - The Board Game Restaurant

2 patrons. One chicken honey sandwich. One adult mac and cheese. No beverages. Service was fast and friendly. It got very busy within minutes of arriving at 12:30pm. Good atmosphere - gets a bit loud when it's fully stacked with people and games going on but that's expected.

Total bill $42 so it's restaurant prices and GOOD quality food. Will come back. Accessible friendly too, which is a bonus.

It's a good idea to book and arrive on time. Very good for spending time playing with friends and family. Good food, nothing exceptional, but adequate. Good service. Beer options too. The place is relatively small, but pleasant. It can get noisy if the games get exciting.

Kid-friendliness: The times I went, I didn't see children, but there must be games for them.

There are so many board games to choose from. The food is good and the staff is super helpful. It might get loud. there's a ton of tables. There's a private room as well, but I haven't booked it :)

Where's the beef?
It was our first time here, we had heard the reviews were phenomenal, so we tried it.
We ordered the draft Burger with Cheddar and Chipotle Mayo. The order came out, I've not seen a tiny burger like that in forever. The patty was about 2 ounces, the fries were cold. I split the burger with my wife. There were no tomatoes, no onions, no red peppers. All we asked the server to eliminate was ketchup, but they eliminated just about everything else.My half of the burger had no gristle, her half was only gristle.
We let our server Dilon know. Now it's was not Dilon's' fault, I blame the cook.
All that The Raving Gamer did was to take off 25% of the add on. How about making another edible burger, did you ever think of that, evidently not!
We tried it and were extremely disappointed. My 9 year old grandchild can cook better food!

I love this place a lot. But i booked a reservation 5 days in advance and I wasn’t given the table i asked for. I understand it can be busy but I don’t understand why the reservation after us got a booth and not us. I don’t know how their system works but everything else went perfectly fine. The food was good and the board games are really fun. Just wish next time i can get the table I reserved 5 days in advance. It was the only reason I booked quite early.

Been coming here since 2019. Never had a bad meal or experience at this place. Recently came back to take a colleague of mine to lunch.

A fun place if you are with a few friends who like to play board games and drink. The food is decent but the service is lacking a bit. It seems like everyone who works there is very mellowed out. Overall it’s a nice place to have a conversation and a few laughs.

This place is such great value. Huge selection of games to buy and play at the table. Tables are large, and the food is priced well considering it supports local businesses and you'd pay that much for food if you went to any other restaurant anyways. Reservations are a must for peak times.
