Dorky's Bar Arcade

This place is awesome, and a lot of fun.

I really enjoyed playing the older arcade games. The prices (25-50 cents for many of the games) were nice, you don't feel robbed. The staff was pleasant. It was extremely loud in there, but I'm not sure what they can do about that.

I had low expectations for the food, but the pizza was fantastic. I had the PacMan Pepperoni and it was quite cute, and very delicious. I loved all the details, paper plates, plastic pitchers of soda, and in general the eye candy of the older, well-loved but well-maintained games and just the nostalgia overall.

I knocked off a point because the eating areas could have been cleaner, the tables were gross and dirty with dishes/pizza toppings and grease/used napkins on them, whoever sat there previously didn't bus it themselves and were supposed to, or the staff wasn't paying attention. If they want people to bus their own tables they should clearly indicate that, otherwise be more vigilant.

Overall, though, really enjoyed coming here and will definitely return!

Ugh why even call this place a bar? it is more of an arcade that happens to serve beer...total disappointment...I felt like I was at a "tilt" arcade in a mall or something...nothing about this place says "hey lets get a buzz and have fun"...an utter disappointment...I was expecting more bar less arcade...what I got was more arcade MUCH LESS bar...do yourself a favor and stick to Dave and Busters if you really feel the need to drink and play games simultaneously.

This place is kick ass. This place has the best selection of retro games... especially pinball.All of the games are very reasonably priced.  Many of them are only a quarter. Defiantly a must do in Tacoma.
