Ive only been here a couple of times but I absolutely love it.So many games that I havent even heard of till I first went to Round 1.Everything looked clean and its cool to have a conversation with other rhythm game players.

Great first visit to Round 1. Not very busy for a Saturday night. Would definitely choose this place for a night out instead of the other busy options. There game selection is pretty big. The number of tickets you win for the prizes is very low. The prize selection is pretty nice but expensive and cannot be purchased with cash. There are billiards, bowling, video games, food and drinks. This place has a lot of everything.

Our favorite place for bowling! Clean, feels safe, helpful staff, good snacks, affordable prices. We miss it so much! We hope you open soon.

I am only adding a review for the food. Ive never bowled here. The burgers are A-massing and the onion rings are the best I have ever had! Nice selection of beers as well.

This is a bowling alley in a mall. Not much more to it. its got lots of arcade and video games. Lots of new stuff some old stuff. I would say the arcade portion is much funner than the bowling portion. The employees tend to be rude. One of them insulted my girlfriend the bartender to be exact. But that being said they do have a bartender which means they serve alcohol at the place, but I almost knocked this dude out. Bartender was a rude jerk.

Good entertainment but their machines are ridiculously rigged! $300 is not enough for 1 person! Getting close to spending $600 & we decided to leave! This is like a casino for 21 under!!!

Took a group here and it was a good time. Getting your shoes is as easy as it gets. When you have the unlimited 2 or 3 hour play, it goes by very quickly! Better to go early so you can get going. We did have issues with our lanes and no time is added for that. The bad part are the karaoke rooms. You need to download an app for easiest use but they dont tell you ahead of time. Instead, you waste at least 15 min. setting up. When you only have an hour, its significant. Secondly, they dont allow beer in there. Pretty annoying. They monitor it like a hawk!

If Eugene R1 deserves 1 star, this location should deserve 999.

Round1 wont be opening until king county goes back to phase 3.

Came here for the arcade specifically as there is a HUGE selection of games. Some of the games really need to be maintained better but mostly were great. The price per game felt like it was really worth it at $20 pretty person for a couple of hours. Private karaoke rooms, billiards, and bowling were also available. Really enjoyed myself.

Pricing is okay, and the place is pretty clean and cool looking. But about a third of all the games we played were broken in some way, be it broken controls (such as SEGAs destruction derby) or crashing software (too spicy Japanese shooting game) to give a couple examples.

I liked it a lot I’d go back for sure .. I should’ve took a picture of the prices! Smh .. I like how they got some things from Japan too .. Dope!

Its an amazing gathering place to play lots of games with everyone. The games there are far and wide from rhythm and dance, claw machines, and light gun games. The people that play though, they sometimes become the real stars

Great place for kids and adults to go hang out and have fun! They have everything from arcade games to bowling! Something for everyone to have fun playing.

Fortunately I was only there for maybe half an hour to pick up my kid from a birthday party, but oh my its LOUD! If Id had to be there much longer, Id have a permanent headache. Great for kids, but no real adult would want to subject themselves to that for very long.

Had a corporate party here. Bowling lanes are great. Plenty to do. Staff was very nice. Bathrooms were clean, but in a state of disrepair. Doors broken and duct taped up, one toilet out of service, but all in all a fun time.

They dont accept corporate credit cards or even personal credit card. I brought my teams here for team building fun and had to use my personal debit card. Kept asking me to take cash out atm. Even general manager said no to Corp card.

Amazing arcade and entertainment spot. The token pricing could be a bit clearer.

Went here on 3/10 and it was a slower night. Some of the cranes were offline and i couldnt play them but overall its a very friendly atmosphere! Lots of great games to play and the 2 bartenders that very helping me all night were very cute so thats a plus.

Kids like it. It is expensive and if they go for tickets vs just playing video games you can go through money fast. The bowling is nice but more than you would pay at your local alley

Wonderful place to hang out and play imported videogames! Always a pleasure to spend time here.

Decor and decibel levels resemble a carnival, and the place is run slightly like one. Not to slight the staff, but organization is not as great as what round one offers. Bowling and karaoke is great, but the arcade cards have a weird hitch, making you wait a few minutes before playing again. Could have been a fluke card but I got it so oh well. Come here if its late at night and youre free til the morning

Is it reopen right now? please reply if someone found it open.

Great place to hang with family and friends

Disappointing experience compared to JapanIve been to a few Round Ones, primarily in Japan, coming back here its a completely different experience and nowhere near the same. Staff are unpleasant, and unhelpful. Bowling Alleys arent oiled properly, resulting in difficulty bowling compared to other places. Claw games are 300x more rigged. If youre looking for a basic arcade, and rigged claw games, come here. Otherwise Id hold off on going to a Round One if you can go to Japan -- they are much better :)

Our favorite spot to bring our friends together from Tacoma and Seattle! Love their bowling, arcades, and you can’t go wrong with their drink specials!

I had so much fun there. Their customer service is good.

Says they’re open but they were closed

Easily my favorite place to go out when I need to get my nerd on. Amazing selection of arcade games (including the best racing game I’ve ever played; Maximum Tune 5). If you enjoy beer like I do, they have schooners of Shock Top for $3 plus tax every day. Bowling, karaoke rooms, and pool tables are just added bonuses.

Great place for bowling and arcades. Wish they had more pool tablea and more table seating around the whole place. Also, pitchers of beer would be awesome. Still love this place with my kids or just my husband, its always fun.

Love this place. The claw machines are so much fun. Offers lots of great prizes and its reasonably priced. Plus their icecream is delicious!

Great fun place to bring your family and friends. Tons of games!

Worst service ever. Waited 10 minutes at the bar with no response. I walked over to the food service area and asked if the bar was told. Their response? “I’m the only one here,” with someone standing right next to them.I went back to the bar thinking that someone would be by to help. After another 5 minutes I asked if I could please have a beer and was once again told, “I’m the only one here,” as I’m still looking at two employees.Gave up on ordering a beer and went to bowl with my family. Later my wife went back to the food service area to order food. Seemed simple enough but after another 5+ minutes of waiting for a single person to show up she walked away.On the plus side because they made it so hard to spend money I probably saved a few bucks. Luckily this place won’t have to worry about me spending money here ever again.

Still a really enjoyable place. I think the prizes arent the most appealing, but its good fun when you have a friend along.

Staff hella cool an friendly.. Super fun for kids! Great experience, will be back!!

Round 1 represents the finest of bowling alley heydays during the 70s and 80s, from a Japanese perspective.This particular location is a bit cramped and dated but it doesn’t matter much. Round 1 is still one of the best places in the Seattle metro area for slick shoes, greasy food, stiff drinks, and a great arcade!

Good Family fun, or just for Anyone. There are plenty of games to entertain you with, atleast one even for the Pickiest. I rate it 3 because the Prices on these Machines can be Very Ridiculous at times. These Games shouldnt be that Expensive. I understand the Bowling, but some of these games need to be brought down to their actual value.

We had a lot of fun and the games were reasonably priced. However. both staff members that we interacted with were very rude. We are both in the restaurant industry and are very understanding of the tasks and hardships those in customet service face, but this was just awful. Unsure if we will be back based on the way we were treated, might go back to Dave & Busters for a more friendly atmosphere.

Round 1 is a great place to go for family fun. There is something for everyone here. So whether youre 6 or 60, youre bound to have a blast!!

We planned an event here with ~60 people. Was told several days before the event (when I paid the deposit) that we would get 10 lanes, so I planned out lane assignments in advance so that we could get bowling right away. Thank goodness I showed up early because when I got there, they told me we only had 8 lanes because some werent working. Ok, re-arranged all my lane assignments and then right before we started, they told us we now had 10 lanes. Super frustrating.The pricing for parties is very reasonable and the venue itself is pretty nice. The bowling area is great for parties because of the way the seating is laid out.

Pricey but fun games. Nothing oldschool. A lot of flashy lights and sounds

Awesome games alot of people younger/kids kinda crowd

I actually work here but honestly if u have kids its a great place for the entientire family

Lots of fun games and activities! The machines are kept up very well and they keep putting in new ones every time I check. There are tons of cute ticket prizes as well and I love the photo booths!

Great atmosphere, good selection of games, karaoke and bowling.Food wasnt very good but everything else is top notch for a place like this.

This place is pretty fun, the prices arent too bad and I would recommend this place to have some fun with friends and dates. Ive played some games there and they were also in good condition.

Games are a little gimicked. But its still fun to play games and have a good time.

If I could give zero stars I would. First our group was placed between two other large groups while several other lanes were available. We asked to move to a less crowded lane and the hostess was rude. We paid over $57 for a lane for a group of 3 people. We went to the bar to get refreshments. I was told the bartender (manager) would be available in half an hour and we could get drinks then. After 45 minutes we asked again, we were told that it would be another hour. The desk person (Mal) was rude to us and told us to go to bolwero if we wanted service. We asked for a refund for the remainder of our time, she asked us to leave. We left because the staff was rude and refused to serve our group. We were polite, sober, and we were treated horribly. The bathrooms were disgusting and every stall in the womens restroom was clogged. Horrible and expensive experience.

Good center, pool, bowling, arcades games, food and drinks, however the center is not clean, restrooms are filthy, the staff are young, unprofessional, specially the Security are way too rude, uneducated and unprofessional.Staff needs customers service training.

Best place for family indoor outing. I love their karaoke, bowling and arcade. 99 cent ice cream is one of the best highlights.

They definitely need to improve the quality of their food products... Soda machine was out of syrup in all the flavors except Coke, their pizza taste like microwave .The restrooms need to be clean more often..., you can feel the smell from the bar area. You can still have a good time, but definitely Round1 wont be my first choice.

Best arcade in Tukwila/Southcenter. Sometimes I drive from North Seattle just to play here. They have a lot of games you will not find elsewhere. Folks looking for nostalgia will be disappointed, I think the oldest games here are from the mid 90s with a few older 90-93-ish NeoGeo games on the Sega internet-linked machines in the back corner. There are no pinball machines here, either. If youre looking for Asteroids or Galaga, etc, you are better served elsewhere. I highly reccomend a certain West Seattle bar-cade for those searching for pre-1995 gaming or pinball. (Vidiot is the place- please see my review of this wonderful establishment as well.)

Great place for a date night. Good energy, great staff and above all affordable.

Good arcade better than the new Dave and Busters

Best arcade in the state! A ton of Japanese imported games, and they take incredibly good care of their machines unlike a lot of other arcades around.. A must-go place if youre into fighting games, racing games or especially rhythm games. Expect to wait in lines on weekend nights for the rhythm games, theyre always crowded by some hardcore players. Their food is okay too, but since its in the mall Id recommend heading to the food court or one of the many restaurants nearby instead.

I love this arcade but the staff have a collective iq of 5

Cool place for bowling or game entertainment. A bit expensive though.

Amazing place, it takes alot of money to play here.

Love this place! Always bring relatives here when visiting. Has bowling, kareoke and bee games in the arcade every time I go! I love that they have night time 21+ hours

Not from the area, but it made a great first impression. Lots of games to choose from, almost all the machines were working. Enjoyed my time there.

An amazing entertainment center. Great addition to the Westfield Southcenter area located right next to Seafood City and Jollibee

I had never gone to this place before. So first and for most. They have no ATM in the whole building. They only accept chip and cash. You are not able to swipe debit card cause they have super glued all the machines where your able to swipe your card. Second the womans bathroom was DISGUSTING. Stalls are missing doors, 1 didnt lock and all except one had no toilet paper. Third the games with the claw are all rigged dont waste your credits on these machines. The only good thing I do like was the staff, all where helpful and nice. But I wouldnt waste your time or money in this place.

While its not my cut of tea, its a good place for entertaining kids and parties. The bowling and karaoke were okay, but the arcade noises made conversation challenging.

Super fun! Great games, great customer service, its definitely worth a visit if you love hanging out and playing arcade games.

Loads of fun for large or small groups! Bowling, arcade. Refreshments too!

Bowling is the only thing really worth going here for. Half of their arcade machines game card readers didnt work so playing pairs sucked because only one could play at a time. Some of the games werent in English which I dont have a problem with, but I wish there was an option to switch between languages at least? I dont think Ill be coming back and I wouldnt recommend coming here for anything other than bowling. They also dont allow outside food or drink and theyre probably really always understaffed, so I dont blame anyone working there, the business itself just just isnt run very well.

We go there for the 99 cent ice cream cones! Good hand dipped real ice cream, not soft serve.

Kids love the arcade here. Definitely more up to date than the Gameworks in Seattle

Lots of fun. Fair priced decent prizes on the low end.

Great place for an outing and/or get-together.

This place is fine if you have kids that stay up on the late-night like mine. Theyre open till 2am and after 10pm children have to be accompanied by an adult. Food is okay several arcade games to choose from. Bowling Alley is reasonable. And they have armed security which is always reassuring when it comes to the safety of you and your family in a public place. All the staff are very friendly and helpful.

I gave a three star because there a lot of new games but the stuff animal games looks rigged. They squeeze the stuff animal to point where you can never get the prize.

Round1 is a fantastic place to go for a myriad of explosively fun experiences, from claw machines, to rhythm games, to ticket earning games, down to fighting games and photo booth entertainment. An entertainment tour du force! We applied for the member card and app bonus, and a kind and helpful employee named Nicholas helped walk us through it. Id like to personally commend him for his quick and friendly service.

The staff were freaking amazing!!!! I kept sucking at these skilled game over and over. They set me up to win and I was so thankful and happy for the friendly understanding staff. I appreciate the helpfulness. The guidance on how to play these tricky claw machines. My children love the plush!

The food was mediocre, but where else can you bowl, do karaoke, play hundreds of arcade machines, AND pool? If you want delicious food, just head next door to the amazing bakery.

Pretty clean and their was nice staff! I recommend this place for a visit

I think this place is great for families or late-night with friends. I’m a fan of Asian arcade games and karaoke. You get both under one roof. They have three karaoke rooms, which are quite affordable, a vast selection of songs, and you can bring food and drinks into them. You can sing in Viet, Korean, Japanese, Tagalog, Spanish... it’s always a good time.

On Dec 6th I took my boys here. We purchased the red card for them to play and earn ticket. My boys have about 1800 tickets to spend on prizes we asked for the twister light because my oldest want it in the room for him and his brother. One of the employee told us how many tickets we needed for that. Unfortunately the youngest brother wanted ear phone. But since the two didn’t come with an agreement, I told them no they’re not getting any we just have to come back one they decide. I told the employee we are not taking the light, we’re going to save the ticket she said ok. Than we left. We came back on the 16th to grab the light because both boys wanted this time. Sadly to say this place is a huge joke, there’s thief working there. When I give the employee the card she said to me it’s only 280 points on one of the card. I told her No that’s wrong they’re a lot of points on the card. I asked where were the other points go. She said it was used on the twister light. WOW!!! Just wow! Apparently someone scan the twister light using my kids ticket and take it with them. So the manager told me it’s going to take an hour for her to investigate this because she has to go through security camera and all that. I gave her my phone number and it’s been more than 24 hours already and I haven’t heard from her.I am not giving up on this. These are my kids ticket they play for it. I’m not going to just let it slide.For any parents out there I learn something here. If you end up not getting any or you just want to save your kids ticket for later. Make sure check there system that they document that down.

I own a similar type Entertainment venue to Round 1. Every time I am in Seattle I stop into Round 1 to check out the newest arcade games on the market. I have never left a review because I was never super really impressed with staff. This time I was blown away with the care and customer service that Nicholas (on 2/4 9pm) and the lady attending the bar (on 2/3 9pm), and the Manager on duty (2/4 9pm) showed my group and I. Nicholas and the lady that attended us at bar were amazing with their customer service skills and attentiveness. They showed actual care for the customer, engaged us, and made sure that we were well taken care of. As a fellow business owner of a FEC, these men and lady deserve a raise or being promoted.

Hit lottery on one of the games. Had fun thank you guys.

One of the only places in the state to play some amazing imported Japanese arcade games! Just plan on waiting in line for some of the more popular ones, such as Sound Voltex!

We bought an expensive deal & it was confusing, the staff did not help us or put our food order in at all when we requested it. Of the staff are unwilling to help they should at least have an instructional brochure. Now that we know everything we could go back and pay the almost $300 and get our,moneys worth, but we wont for we unfortunately were totally ripped off the first time.

This place was surprisingly a lot of fun! It brought back memories of younger days hanging out in the arcade. We ended the night with a 99cent ice cream cone. We will be back.

Nicholas was a huge help in making our best buddy Hieu’s birthday amazing. He was ready to aid us in resetting the claw machines, asking if we needed tips and being a bright and shining soul. We will definitely be back because of him :)

Great amount of games and entertainment for the whole family.

Oh wow is this place so epic! Now, taking my son out is actually affordable!

Absolutely terrible, and way overpriced. This place has a good concept, but horrible execution. First off, the place looks like it hasnt had a deep clean since it opened. Now I dont expect a ton for a bowling alley/arcade, but seriously there was a thick layer of dust covering all the light fixtures hanging in the bowling area. The staff was mostly unhelpful and disengaged, most of them seeming like they are just there to collect a paycheck. When trying to sign up for thier membership program, I was told I had to go to another desk for that.... They had this confusing maze made of the velvet ropes that is used to show people where to form lines that was unnecessary, with only a narrow single file path to the bathrooms. We waited over 5 minutes for someone to help us cash in our tickets becuase one employee was too busy with a calculator and a binder looking at what looked like his schedule to come help us. The card system for the arcade games was cool in that you didnt have to carry tokens/quarters, but most of the games had partial costs (6.8 credits??) which caused you to leave a small amount of credits on the card unspent because it went below the amount any game there costs. Plus $2 for each card?? This place seems to have a niche clientele and that to me seems to be the way they are saying in business, because for that cost, I would rather go to Acme across the street or any of the other locally owned bowling alleys across the region.

The arcade games eats your money. When I told the lead on Hopes to get my money back all he said was yeah it does that. My son was bummed. I will not give them my business again

Round one is a decent arcade and bowling alley, they have a decent selection of games and prizes to choose from. They are starting to look a little worn down and while my friends and I bowled there was something wing with the lane because slower balls didnt go into the gutter on the left side they just bounced off an invisible wall. I couldnt see the bumpers but I did notice what looked like warping around where the invisible wall seemed to be. Minor detail all in all as it was still an enjoyable experience.

I really appreciated the effort that was put to bring Japanese style of karaoke and arcade. The only disappointing factors was that the karaoke could be better if there were curtains and the ability to dime the lights as well as have some new couches because they were just old with leather that was peeling and uncomfortable. As for the arcade, it was misleading. Almost every other machine wasnt working or had missing parts.I did appreciate having real DDR though.The prizes were actually cute things that I wanted. Im also thankful that they had a military discount for karaoke. This may not be exactly as what I was hoping for, but it was worth the money and was really enjoyable.

Expensive. Inattentive and oftentimes rude staff. Gaming is fun but, better upkeep is needed on machines. Need to rotate their stock of prizes in claw machines more regularly. Mens bathroom has been a mess for months now with one urinal constantly under repair or just never having been repaired. All in all, not a bad experience but, needs more dedicated and personable people to work there.

Wide variety of games and prizes for all ages.

Similar to DAVE AND BUSTERS BUT ITS Japanese themed. I liked the 2 hours of unlimited play

Fun family spot! Less of an investment than the fun center nearby

Great place for bowling. The staff is very confused. Four people come to take our order, then no order show up until we went to look for it. Definitely can improve this experience.

Everything is fine other than the scam of crane games. They zip tie all but one prize down and even wedge the only prize you can get under the zip tied prizes. Some have little signs saying they are secured down and some dont. One crane had two pink domokuns zip tied down which made it impossible for the crane to even touch the obtainable prize. Other than the crane games its a place I like to take my son but they obviously scam you and dont try and hide it

My kid had a blast.

First time and 10/10 would go again. Fair pricing and hours of fun

Cool place to go. Kinda spendy but the prizes are pretty cool

Most games are good but the claw machine not working because not all claws have the same pressure as others.
