MoreNice place, great environment, nice variety of things to do between the bowling, the TVs, the bar, pool table, and lounges.
MoreExcellent Service from the Staff and the Food was Tasty.
Girls at the front were not really nice… otherwise a dope place!
Went here 3 - 4 times alone in the past 3 weeks to scope out customer service for all patrons at the spot. I am a self independent reviewer and love checking out local venues to see how the service and fooddrinks are. I saw a few complaints as well as had some issues myself, but each time I came back those issues were resolved. 4 solid stars and my next visit i am confident this Lucky Strike location will earn that last 5th star. The service team are working hard and management have been upholding excellent customer service.
MoreI had my husband bday here. Service was slow. Food took long, but the chicken tinga was good. There was ac in the bar area where we hung out but once we got into the bowling area there was no ac... i had ro find a waitress to ask them to turn on ac and ahe told me that the ac didnt work in that room... now having went in the summer you would think this would be a disclaimer before we waited to play. Not only was there no ac, when we were playing no one checked up on us nor did they ask us if we wanted drinks or anything. Im happy i never signed the contract to have a bigger party. If im about to drop $700 plus the ac should be working.
MoreBy the far the best bowling spot I’ve been to. There are two descent bar areas and the servers are pretty great, excellent customer service.
MoreWe had so much fun. it was a blast!!
I had so much fun with the party I was with and the staff was Amazing and friendly plan on coming back soon!!
MoreWhat a hot spot for friends to hang out, bowl, or shoot pool! Such a nice lounge area and so many great food options!! Clean restrooms, clean rooms and floors, clean cut staffers (shout out to Natalie!and such a good time with ease and comfort! Drinks were well recommended and tasted! Food was delicious and savory! Didn’t get to try desserts, but there’s always next time!!! Thank you!!!
MoreExcellent customer service!Place is clean and well organized.Will definitely go back again.
MoreBy the far the best bowling spot I’ve been to. There are two descent bar areas and the servers are pretty great, excellent customer service.Parking is very expensive so park on street and walk over if you can. Great times when there are Laker or Clipper or King’s games.***Update***Bowled with my little cousins and they were able to get bumpers and a slider. The bowling experience is top notch and the night club feel after 10pm is pretty cool.
MoreMy first time coming on Friday very beautiful place and the food was so tasty and the drinks were so good. The people so friendly bartender were fabulous definitely coming back.
MorePlace was fun overall. Very clean and kept very well temperature-wise considering we are working closer to prime time summer season. Lanes were available when we went, although it was only a Tuesday night. Crowd seemed very far and wasnt too excited or distracting to other lanes. Food and drinks arent expensive but definitely arent the cheapest. We had some cocktails, a few beers, and the steak nachos. All were decent, but the extra 6 bucks to add maybe 1.5oz of steak to the nachos is a joke. Food service button at the lane didnt work and the waitress we had wasnt attentive at all. This is the only reason I would rate this place actually 3.5 stars if I could. Overall, nice place though and would recommend. Hopefully not a generic response from the owner like I see copied and pasted for everyone elses reviews. If thats the case, Ill have to adjust this for sure...
MoreEverything was great except we kept having issues with both of our lanes. Maybe they need some maintenance updates. Although the staff was very accommodating every time we had an issue they came to assist very quickly or fixed whatever issue we have with delaying. And customer service was great.
More100% recommend. I celebrated my birthday here and everything was awesome. Food, service and vibe was great. I’m very picky so this is an honest reviewI’ll be back
MoreReally enjoyed it. The upscale of bowling experience. Nice clean environment and good service.
MoreIts was a wonderful super bowl weekend. I had the pleasure of covering media outlets and sharing SMILES with all the super fans. #TEAMSMILEY
MoreWe were asked to leave a lane that was sold to us in the middle of a game because it was reserved for group.The lane we were given wasnt clean yet and there were no more space to use the balls we were using since the rack was full.We finished our games and completed our session. The reserving party still wasnt there.
MoreChill place to bowl. The nice thing is you can eat and drink while enjoying all you can bowl. Walk-ins are ok, but I would suggest reserving your lane ahead of time. Also right near the Staples Center (A.k.a Crypto.comand several other restaurants and bars. Another cool feature is you can take the Expo Line right to L.A Live.
MoreWhat an amazing environment. We got to bowl in a very reasonably priced VIP lane. The ambience was awesome the service was exceptional and the quality was A+I am not a bowler but a great time was surely had.
MoreThe bowling alley is really nice from decor to ambiance to the food and drinks we ordered.Customer service is a bit of a toss up. I patiently stood there waiting for 15 minutes while the lady at the front desk was on the phone. — Another employee walked up, saw me waiting there, and didn’t even bother greeting me or saying “Sorry for the wait, we’ll be right with you” … nothing. Just walked away after grabbing what they needed.I want to say I have high standards after having run several multimillion dollar stores, but at LEAST acknowledging your clients is a customer service basic that I’d expect from the lowest of fast food places, let alone from an “upscale” bowling alley.On the upside, our waitress made up for the girl at the front desk. She was polite, attentive, came to check on us at least 7 times throughout the night. The service was quick too! We’ll be back because of her. 4/5 overall.
MoreBEST place to watch football! Food is DELICIOUS! Bartenders are even better! Great deals and total worth it. Cant watch all the games but enough.
MoreExcellent service? Well priced food? Upscale atmosphere? Viral videos playing above the lanes? AND BOWLING? This place delivers what its meant for, good times.
MoreGreat ambiance; dark setting but that makes for great bowling. The TVs are great for watching sports and the drink I had was good (Sailor Jerrys rum & Coke). $15/person per hour plus shoes! It is steep but its DTLA so Im getting used to overpriced anything over here. The lanes are great, seating is comfortable and even though my son loves spending his Daddys money, even he was smart enough to say that we can eat some place else for those prices.
MoreGreat place for viewing party -client Kiaundra Jackson Resident Counselor on Owns new hit #realitytv show "LOVEGOALS" @krprmedia @kimirhochelle
MoreFun times. Great place to hang out for a few hours if you have to wait for your kids at a concert at the Microsoft Theater.
MoreOn a busy Sat. night the womens bathroom was filthy. I honestly dont think it gets detailed in anyway. The stains on the mirrors and hand dryers seemed permanent. Its just gross. For a Business in a prime location they take NO pride in providing a clean restroom for their patrons. And they have the nerve to charge $14 for a Jack&Coke, $16 for a long island ice tea.The DJ was good and the bartender was nice. I cant imagine what that place looks like with light on.
MoreFirst impressions based on the price and the comfortable upscale aesthetic suggest this place holds itself to a pretty high standard compared to the average neighborhood bowling alley. The drink menu featuring craft cocktails confirms this, but the food does not. I appreciated the range of options but was expecting the quality to be higher. Mac n cheese bites are like a mouthful of Velveeta and Ive had nicer margherita pizza from the Frozen section at trader Joes.Bowling was super fun though! The lanes are really tight so I think its a better experience if you have enough people for two lanes, though it was slow enough when I went with my group of six that we could still spread out a bit
MoreThis was an awesome night! Lucky Strike is the cream of the crop in terms of bowling and entertainment!
MoreHas a really good time, bowling was fun, the food was delicious, waitress was really attentive and constantly ensured that everyone has everything they wanted.The troublesome part was when it was time to leave, our event was to include parking validation. Took about 15 minutes for the manager to come talk with me. Showed him the email in which parking validation was included, he reiterated that they dont validate. So each of us had to cough up $20 for parking.After contacting the events manager, the amount we paid for parking was fully refunded.
MoreWent here for a private event, it is an interesting bowling experience and atmosphere. I wouldnt recommend catering a private event here. During the event they didnt bother to have enough "food servers" on staff and asking any other staff didnt get me anywhere. I have specific food alllergies that left me with one option of all the dishes they provide and after spending over half an hour to get the first and only round of food I was only able to eat the tortilla chips and dip. I even asked for a second serving, and after waiting for 45 minutes and asking 3 different employees for some more of what I could eat I left.
MoreCompany sponsored a Private Event. A large place to accommodate our group. They were understaffed and they kept running out of food.
MoreWOW!! Went to the Clippers game, couple weeks ago and oh my goodness, what great service I received. There was a young lady I believe if I remember correctly her name was Jenny, and I believe she was a manager. When I tell you she gave great customer service, she went above and beyond. Being from out of town, it was comforting to know she had our backs. She suggested things for us to do while we were visiting LA. If you are ever down by the Staples Center you should definitely stop in and get the Shrimp and Grits, and hopefully Jenny and her staff will blow you away with their excellence.
MoreLucky Strike is definitely a fun spot in downtown LA! I do think its a little pricey but its great for work team events or just group hangouts. The service was very good and the food was just OK, but good for finger foods. The sliders had beef that was well seasoned and seems high quality, the egg rolls and potstickers were okay, and the guacamole was probably the best dish, fresh flavor, not too salty. Seating was comfortable but a lot of the couches seemed a bit worn. Still, a great place to hang out with a great ambience!
MoreIve attended at least five different private party functions (for workhere. Those times have been fine. My visit today with a class group seemed kinda meh. I ordered some soft drinks and pizza at the bar with a friend; the bartender was pretty aloof and I now really regret that I left him a tip. I realize that we were the first customers of the morning, and I kind of suspect that the managment takes special care not to staff the bowling alley with their best employees during this shift.
MoreGreat fun. Private party in the reserved room. Very cool. Relaxing atmosphere & friendly staff. Great views, good pool, excellent drinks, yummy food, terrific bowling (4 private lanes), and even better company.An amazing location in DTLA at LA Live to get away from the hustle of the routine for a few hours with the entire staff. A great morale & team builder at a reasonable cost per head. Looking forward to doing it again in a few months.
MoreAmusing picture of this Epic Mickey style poster. Menu was good. The lighting was dark inside, made a date night feel no complaints there.
MoreI was impressed by the service. Servers were confident and talkative, which I consider positive attributes. The bowling was fun, drinks were great, and the BBQ Chicken pizza was incredible! Definitely recommend stopping in if youre in the neighborhood and looking for something fun to do for an hour or two.
MoreFun place and good drink selections in the bar. I brought my girlfriend here for Valentines, they said they were going to make it a Valentines theme, so i reserved a lane. It wasnt really themed, however, even the music was not themed. That kind of bothered me. Overall, we had fun and the service was friendly.
MoreThis place was pretty cool. Theres a lounge area and bar where you can sing karaoke then bowl on the other side.
MoreNice, cool, quiet upstars bar at LA Live. Bowling alley sounds are controlled very well so sitting at the bar makes conversation comfortable. They have 10 to 12 beers on tap, and a full bar.
MoreJust went in during E3 on Sunday. Not busy but karaoke does not make it a fun place to play pool or even hangout. Band was good but not for the venue. Too loud and too close. Stayed long enough to play one round of pool and finish one drink. Any other day might be better.Service was very good and fast. Also very understanding when my group decided to call it after one round of pool and drinks.
MoreHave bowled here 3 separate times when attending conferences at the neighboring conference center. Great atmosphere with secluded groups of lanes. Great for a get together. Bar and food is good, acceptable service. Great place to do something during the down time of a conference or the night it ends before your flight the next morning!
Morewe had a great time bowling except one of our lanes had issues. no worries because the helpful and nice staff quickly put us on a different lane and no more problems. with a great selection of beers and able-bartenders ready to create any drinks you want, this insured our night was perfect!
MoreThe place looks good. You can have a really nice time with your friends and prices are reasonable.However when I came there there wasnt anyone serving, I had to go on the bar to ask for menu. The bar tender told us we do have server and we should wait for her. The server was walking around us, pretending she doesnt see us. I think she should at least to say hi give me a moment.After 15 minutes we stranded up and left the place.Place is really nice but they should work on the staff.
MoreGreat service for downtown. The classiest place to go bowling, impossibru happy hour specials.
MoreI attended a networking event that was hosted here. Appetizers were tasty and easy to eat while bowling. There is a great selections of drinks, too!
MoreThis is one of my favorite spots to hang out. The lounge area is really nice and the drinks were well prepared. They have a bowling alley, pool tables and karaoke to keep the evening fun and lively. But the food is also a hidden gem. It wasnt your typical bar food; it was well prepared, creative, and flavorful. A great place to go for a fine night.
