Round1 Bowling & Amusement 1600 Northridge Mall, Salinas, CA 93906

"I went in the day and was pleasantly surprised of the cleanliness the food in libations courts were not overpriced. You could even get an ice cream cone for a dollar!! The games appeared amusing in the bowling alley was kid friendly and of pretty good quality. The prizes for the games appeared to be of quality."

"Nice place to go bowling, and the Spark lanes are cool for the little ones. They also have a bunch of arcade games. But they have inconsistent pricing. While waiting in line, the screen displayed $52.95 per hour for the Spark lanes. When I got up to the counter, they then showed me a laminated pricing sheet with a price for the Spark lanes at $63 an hour, a $10 increase. I asked why there was a difference in the pricing. The person helping didn't know, so she went around asking the other employees. She eventually came back and said their system hadn't been updated yet for the new pricing. I requested they adjust the price to what was displayed, but they refused. Also, when we started bowling, everyone around us had outside food. My wife decided to go grab some stuff before the mall closed. By the time she came back, there were security guards at the entrance. They refused to let her come up with the food, so she had to go put it out in the car. So, depending on what time you show up and if they have security guards working, you might not be able to bring food in."

"Went here on a Wednesday afternoon. They were doing a major remodel and there were a lot of new machines being installed and there were a lot offline too. That being said....STILL a great time! The Time Play is an amazing deal if you like racing games and shooting games. The paid games reload bonuses were worth it. They had more claw machines than I've ever seen in one place; and when the new ones are online, there will be even more! Good balance of ticket games and arcade games. Just a heads up for parents: there were a good mix of games for all ages but it definitely had more of a Dave & Buster's vibe more than a Chuck E Cheese. The staff were all very friendly and helpful, especially April and the game floor staff. We had 3 machine malfunctions and they took care of them quickly. We ended up spending much more time there because time flies when you're having fun!"

"Going to Round1 in Salinas was such a fun idea, my friends and I had a blast! So many old-school and newer-style games to choose from to play, it was a first for me bowling on the second story of a mall. My little one wanted a stuffed toy but they wedge them in so well, good luck with that... you can have hours of fun here, just what my hometown needed, a safe place for families to go on the weekends! We will all be back."
