One of Columbia’s best! Excellent smashed burgers, fries and legendary smoked wings. The Big Cat rolls are can’t miss. Great place to bring the kids and enjoy a meal and beverage.

The place is great, wonderful games and all that. Pinball is amazing, lots of fun games to play. The food: The Smashburger was TRULY a smashburger, and it was AMAZING, like hands down the best I’ve had. Only fired one picture off before I devoured it. Truly next level

Games, food, and drinks. All are good, but pricey.

Dante Smith

The bar was fun, and active. The staff was friendly, and there was plenty to do, regardless of whether or not you were eating or drinking

I happened to come to Columbia for a few hours. Met my sister downtown and we stumbled upon Transmission Arcade. As soon as we opened the door, we knew it's where we were supposed to be. The food was good, the service was on point and the atmosphere was dead on. It reminded us of when our boys were young and we would take them to the arcade to play. Very different menu items. We had the chicken Marsala Sandwich, pork chop Sandwich and smoked wings.

Great food, atmosphere, staff. Can watch a niche sports game on the TV, play a rare pinball or arcade machine, brunch runs late, they're open late every day, menu consists of bangers from top to bottom with rotating specials. Big supporter of the local arts community and a welcome environment to all races, creeds, genders, and colors. Except for objectively horrible people who do irreversible damage to our society and the people who support them. Those people should not come in.

Also, don't mess up the wall art in the restrooms, dummies.

We enjoyed our visit here. The wings NEVER disappoint. I tried the salad today and it was huge and tasty. The atmosphere is relaxing and chill with all the patrons playing games while enjoying drinks. I would highly recommend this restaurant/arcade.
