Nice spot for a good time. The mixture of food, arcade, and bowling space is well done.Note: you can’t bring cake for celebrations or you’ll encounter a fee.

Best food you’re ever going to find at a bowling alley

We love LOVE LOVE this local hangout:Food is beyond amazing; staff is incredible and the bowling is always fun (Thursday nights BOWL night!) but they also have pool + foosball + axe throwing & an arcade for the kiddos (and adults). The owners are SO benevolent, generous, gracious, humble yet so fun!!Their daughter (Alison) is such a personable yet hard worker and can throw a large party (as we did in '12 2022 for 85 people) in a minute or two~ everyone so enjoyed this event.If you sign up for their emails you'll get all the details about special dinners, charity events and all kinds of events.They have renovated this place to the max and THE famous Sam Choy (godfather of Poke and their menu creator) has special cooking classes and gives the best hugs.(The bowling pricing is the same as other lower end bowling places.)The bar staff makes the best cocktails & mocktails and are a lively, friendly & dynamic crew.Enough to say that this is a MUST go to if vacationing here or a local - more locals come here on a regular basis which says a LOT!

My son and I couldn’t have had a better experience at Bowl Incline! The place has been recently updated and is clean and modern; the food is tasty and can be eaten at the lanes as well as at tables; and there are fun extras like pool, air hockey, and a few video games. The staff is awesome — attentive but laid back and very friendly. They were super kind to my son, which I really appreciated. We came back two days in a row! Can’t wait to return the next time we’re in Tahoe.

What an incredible bowling alley/restaurant/bar/arcade! The vibes here are so fun and the food is unbelievably good (the poke tacos, burger, and noodle bowl especially!). It is so fresh, delicious, and unique--nothing like it in the area! You can tell a lot of care went into this place. Every detail is high quality and the owners clearly care about giving every customer a quality experience. I'll be back every chance I get!

Fun spot for the family

Clean and well lit, this place caters more to tourists looking to hang out with friends rather than hardcore or league bowlers. You pay by the hour rather than the game so if you're looking for family fun this is a good place to go. There's a full blown restaurant rather than a deep fryer run by whomever has time, so food is top notch. The balls are well marked and organized so there's no guessing when you go looking for yours.They are serious about your time, so even if you're in the 10th frame and your time runs out, the game is done.

Great atmosphere, very creative technology solutions for kids and amazing service. Can't wait to come back in the summer.

my 3rd and final attempt to enjoy this place with my family ended again in a terrible experience. Having a 5 year old I’ve learned that you cannot bowl a entire game in one hour as a family without getting kicked out before your game is up. We tried to extend our game and they said we are too busy to let you finish the game you paid for. If this place haven’t ruined your night yet it soon will.

The food was excellent as one "should expect" at these prices. However, the service was mediocre at best. Here's why:1. We came for the wacky Wednesday specials, but there were no specials.2. A waiter delivered a food item that was ordered by a different customer.3. A waitress delivered the incorrect cocktail.4. We ordered stir fried rice and were served white rice. To their credit, we received a to-go box with the correct rice upon leaving the place (i. e. After we finished eating).5. We had quite a bit of food left, so we asked for a box for the leftovers. Our plates were whisked away, but the leftovers never returned.I don't understand how this level service can occur "on a slow night"!
Took my visiting family and our 5 year old. We reserved a lane, ordered beer and food (totaled about $200) at this point and we get to the 10th frame and they kick us off the lane we begged for a few more minutes to finish the game but they refused. Absolutely disappointing for our family and small child to be treated like that. I understand the one hour rule but we would have been done in 7 more minutes. Horrible business model. They only care about making money.

80 an hour for miniature bowling is a bit overpriced. Also they’re very stingy - our lane was broken for 15 min and they cut us off at 1hr sharp. do not recommend

Always a good time. Stopped in for a quick lunch and cocktail on a beautiful rainy Sunday & was not disappointed. Ordered the poke nachos and the love tap(?). Both were absolutely delicious! Also, whoever does the music for this place is fabulous. Every time I come in, I feel like I should be singing along (& I usually do).

I visited this place today and was incredibly impressed with everything. The owner Steve introduced himselfTo us as we played and got a refillFor one of the children I was with. As a coffee drinker, I asked if he’s maybe consider getting specialty coffee in the future. Steve (the owner) explained a little of why they’ve stopped breakfast for awhile. As I was watching the kids play games in the arcade, the owner came back up to me and handedMe two special coffee drinks but the best coffee place in town. He went and got them himself so I could have vanilla coffee while I stay.What an amazing act of kindness and service. This place was a blast,The food was good and what a surprise that they have this amazing menu with so many choices versus the generic menu I’d typically see at a bowling alley. This place beats it all!

What a great place! Everything seemed brand new. Food was excellent. Live music on patio. We’ll organized. Family had a blast.
