This place is honestly roach-infested. Every time I've stopped by while bowling, I've seen roaches in the kitchen area/on the counters, near the bread, and even on the walls. It's not just one or two... it's clearly a regular problem. It's honestly scary that food is being prepared around that. Management doesn't seem to be addressing it at all. For the prices they charge, the quality and cleanliness should be way better. I won't be coming back and I wouldn't recommend anyone else risk it either! Zero stars easily.

It's inside an ancient bowling alley which is kind of cool but it's still bowling alley food. The burger was way overcooked but edible. For the price, there are much better alternatives.

The front desk people are very inattentive and have an attitude every time we go. Constant arguing with the offers they provide and not honoring the Sunday morning bowling.
Very unfriendly and have a scowl Everytime we go. They are more concentrated on playing cards behind the booth than dealing with lane issues or help guests.
I never tip them cuz why?
The food is horrible. You can smell the grease in the food. Food service looks so gross and the burgers smelled funny and didn't taste good at all

I have known this grill for YEARS and the food is always spot on. Hot and delicious. Even if you don't come to bowl - come to eat at Lebowski's.

In the fluorescent-lit temple of cosmic insignificance—otherwise known as a bowling alley snack bar—I encountered a cheeseburger so monumentally decadent, so unapologetically greasy, it could make a vegan weep bacon-scented tears of betrayal.

Let me be clear: this was not a meal. This was a philosophical event. A double-pattied, cheddar-drenched monument to America’s subconscious desire to both dominate the food chain and die with a smile. It arrived served on a raft of wax paper like an offering to the cholesterol gods—its bun glistening like the polished dome of a televangelist’s head, its beef charred and seared with the kind of commitment you usually only find in cults or tragic love affairs.

This burger didn’t whisper its presence—it declared it, with the confidence of a congressman in a massage parlor. Pickles stacked like green currency. Onions sliced thinner than my last shred of self-respect. A slice of tomato, likely there for legal reasons. And let’s not forget the lettuce—a single green leaf trying desperately to convince you this is “fresh.”

And then there were the tater tots. Golden, crunchy, and more addictive than capitalism. They didn’t accompany the burger so much as witness it—tiny, fried apostles to a messiah of meat and melted cheese.

I took one bite and my arteries filed a restraining order. I took another and transcended time. I am currently writing this review from 1976.

In summary: this burger is a greasy, glorious, unapologetic celebration of excess. If you’re on a diet, stay away. If you’re on a quest for flavor, salvation, or just a reason to keep going—it’s waiting for you under that bun, baby. Just bring napkins. And maybe a lawyer. Tell JJ I sent you. 😊
