“This is a wonderful bowling alley! It is clean and well maintained, which is becoming increasingly rare these days. I didn't have any issues at all with my lanes while practicing for nearly three hours. Both the bar and the grill were well run and efficient too. I had tri-tip sandwich that was delicious. While I was eating lunch, the General Manager walked over and asked me how my lunch was and offered to comp me some more games as well as invite me to a future bowling tournament! He really made me feel like a local regular. The ambiance is laid back and chill, just like it should be for an alley. Everyone from the center I interacted with was direct and courteous, which was a breath of fresh air. And I knew I was in the right place when I stepped in and saw the American and State of California flags hanging above the lanes. If you are anywhere near Santa Maria and want to relax with friends, have some BBQ and maybe an adult beverage or two, hit this place up!“

“My dad is a service related disabled Vietnam veteran. Today I took him to get his special free veteran’s day meal. Thank you Denny’s for allowing him to take it to go. He has trouble walking and sitting for too long lately and has been reluctant to go out much, especially to crowded restaurants, due to COVID 19. The meal was amazing! He had enough pancakes to share with his grandkids.😉 Even as busy as you were, the service was amazing and quick. I think he waited a total of 10 mins. Maybe consider handing out a free meal card for next year to still help avoid the large crowd that was still present and did not allow for social distancing. You did way better than IHOP who stipulated he had to eat it there and not get it to go and they were packed as well. We left and went straight to you. Thank you for recognizing and supporting all service members, past and present.“

“First time visiting in Arlington Texas. We came on a Sunday after church. We waited about 30 mins which was ok considering. Everyone was pleasant and welcoming. Kyleigh was our server and she has an amazing spirit ❤️. Very kind hearted and sweet. She offered very good suggestions. I'm from Louisiana and wanted to try this place. It states that it is southern cooking with a California twist. Although the food was very delicious, I'd have to say I tasted more California than anything. Hey, that's not a bad thing though. I'm always interested in trying different twist on southern style/Cajun styles. Overall, we enjoyed it and we'll bring the rest of the family. Great food and atmosphere. Thanks again Kyleigh!! Hope you will serve us again.“

“Typical bar food and came prior to happy hour. Came in for the six limited sauces for the FIFA cup. Sauces tasted great in order: Elote just like the real thing, Peri Peri with it sibtle spicy low kick coming back, and the Chimichurri having a very garlic like pesto taste. The other 3 sauces were...eh to me...in order: Maple sweet chili for being sweet, sweet curry which defintely hit the curry note but not a fan, and last place was Yuzu wasabi...no kick and was super sour, and I love real wasabi, so dont think it will clear your senses.

Nevertheless Abe was my server and he had me seated immediately with no issues.
Atmosphere was a little dead even with the World cup going on.“
