Arcade Time Entertainment
📍 Miami, FL
Arcade Time Entertainment in South Miami pairs a large retro-themed arcade — pinball machines, classic cabinets, and modern games — with a full-service restaurant. Reviewers praise it over comparable chains for staff attentiveness and game variety.
Awesome spot for gaming, vibes, and good food. The music and theme is retro and super rad!
🏆 Family Action Verdict
A strong pick for families with kids aged 5 and up who want to eat and play in one stop without dealing with a massive, impersonal chain venue. The retro aesthetic resonates with parents as much as kids. Staff actively check on guests throughout visits — especially helpful for first-timers navigating the game floor and restaurant promo.

“Kaitlynn at Arcade Time was very welcoming and she was also a great server at the restaurant inside. She gave us great food recommendations and it was fantastic. Way better than D&B especially because of the staff & variety of games. Our family had a blast!”

“It was our first time experiencing the Arcade and we had a blast. Raggie was fantastic, helpful, and nice. He made sure we had a great time. He also, checked on us when he saw us around and asked how are we doing. He made us feel welcomed for our first time and we really appreciated his awesome team work. We also would like to thank all staffs for their amazing team work.”
