REVIEWS OF Rizzo's Wildlife World IN New Jersey

Brian Donlin

I've seen Rizzo's at the library and at my daughter's school and was always impressed with how knowledgeable and professional that are. This was my first visit to their place and had an awesome time! The exhibits are clean and the animals don't look distressed or dirty. The staff are friendly and superknowledgeable about all of the animals and are happy to share with you. Laura and Christine (hope I got their names right!) helped us the most and we're awesome. This is definitely a place I would recommend!!

Stacey Tanski

This is a great place for learning about animals for family outings school trips scouts parties. The staff is very knowledgeable.

Leticia Penaloza

I can't believe what a GREAT time I had as the "mom". Dominic and team really took care of everything! We just showed up and enjoyed the awesome show. Dominic is a great host and really should have been a comedian. He entertained kids with his amazing animals as well as the adults with his humor. The location is clean and decorated to be very kid friendly. I will recommend and I am sure all my guests will do the same. Thank you!!

Lynn Apolinaro

Amazing place helpful and super nice staff. Can't wait to take my son there for summer camp.

Lou Ponte

Great fun and educational, especially for children.

Samantha Slevens

Tharak Abraham

Must visit with kids!

If you have kids and it's a rainy day this is a wonderful place to go to. The staff is so helpful and knowledgeable about all the critters.

Mr.woogie Pants

Very small... But I love that u can play with the animals!

Rachel Selig

Outstanding, quality show, highly recommend. My real name is Rachel Selig and in the last three years I have had the pleasure to be at six of Rizzo's Reptile shows. I have hosted four shows in my school for groups of 50 sixth graders (age 11-12). In addition, I have hosted two at my home for my son's four year old and five year old birthday parties. In addition, from my recommendations, several of my friends have also had Rizzo's Reptiles at their homes and have had fantastic experiences as well. From both a 10-year veteran teacher and from a mom standpoint, Dominic Rizzo and his creatures were engaging and interesting for both the children and for the adults. His show has a wonderful flow beginning with small creatures and moving on to larger ones. He uses great educational techniques such as anticipation, humor, audience response, questions, and more. He modifies his presentations to fit the audience. In two of the shows at my school, he seamlessly incorporated and engaged students with developmental differences. For the four and five-year old birthday parties, he truly made the birthday child feel special while also including everyone which was no easy feat since I had both younger and much older friends at the parties. I have also hosted him in small spaces (due to rain) and in large areas both outside and inside. There was no difference in the high quality and entertainment. When you read online reviews, sometimes you wonder why someone would post. Rizzo is a wonderful person with a passion for creatures and for educating and entertaining others about them. He has not remotely paid me in any way for this review, I offer it unsolicited and without any reservation.

Lisa Kardos

Great tour and experience for the whole family! Definitely want to return one day. It's a hidden gem.

Lanea Wehrheim

MAIN WARNING IS TO CALL AHEAD!!! My two year old daughter is absolutely obsessed with this place, and we go often! I always recommend it to parents looking for things to do with their little ones. My high recommendation does come with a warning, and is the reason I'm giving Rizzo's only 4 stars instead of 5.. if you go to Rizzo's on a day when they have any sort of private party (which seems to happen a lot between birthdays and school type things) you will not get nearly as much attention as this group and may even feel like you're in the way. They show animals to the private parties right in the main area, which is confusing to other little customers when they're told they can't participate with this group, or look at what this group is looking at. Now.. SOME of the employees are amazing and they go out of their way to show the animals to people outside the large private groups. If LAURA is there you will have an amazing experience regardless of what is happening, same with GRACE. Unfortunately I have felt the owner/manager has been rude to me in the past, and he particularly seems to care more about the large parties versus his walk in customers. SO my warning is to call ahead and see what their day is like before going because they may be overwhelmed with parties (especially on weekends) and it will not be worth your 10.00. Go anytime and get a wonderful employee like Laura or Grace, and you'll feel it was the best 10.00 ever spent.

Beth Figueira

We had my son's 4th birthday party here. Dominic was amazing with the children and everyone had a great time. I would highly recommend Rizzo's.

Some animals were out to events like the Chinchilla. My toddler had an awesome time though. Btw, if frogs, lizards and snakes creep you out, then stay out.

Sean Palen

Very informational the kids had a great time and learned a lot

Charles Warwick

Was a great time! Laura our educator was amazing! Dominic was really great with the kids! Our kids had an amazing time!

Mike Ashworth

Went there for a birthday party. Very interactive. Great staff. The kids had a very good time!

Steve Toto

My 4-year old son loves this place. Mr. Rizzo brought out several different animals on stage and let the children touch some of them. It's a very small place, but we stayed for 2 hours. He couldn't get enough. Friendly staff that is good with kids. I Would recommend it to others

CJ Gensheimer

This was absolutely awesome for a 4 year old's birthday party. We had 12 kids and they were able to keep their attention the entire time while making them hysterically laugh in many cases. Tina did a fantastic job of making even some of the strangest animals fun. Would highly recommend rizzo's and her again!

Nancy DiDio

JJ Bresett

Very nice people working there great place to bring kids and even adults who are animal lovers.

Jessica Purzycki

We went with an almost 4yr old, almost 2yr old and a 1 yr old and all the kids had fun. The girl working with the animals was extremely nice and great with the kids. We will be back!

Ellen Goldberg

I am a licensed classroom teacher. For the third year in a row, Rizzo's Reptiles has educated my 250 summer campers about animals and pet responsibility. He is engaging, informative and fun. I highly recommend him!

Gloria Dominguez

I went for a school trip with my granddaughter. The staff was knowledgeable, the facilities clean but dated. The gift area could have been bigger than one wall. Only 2 individual bathrooms, with 30 kids it was horrible

Maryellen

Very informative. Always love it

Victoria Straz

Jennifer Steeber

My daughter went to a friend's birthday party here and *loved* it. We'll be having my daughter's party here next!

Suzanne Frank

So fun to see and touch the animals!! Brings education to life!!

Stephen Leek

Fun place. Kids loved it. Jessica and Emily were great. Go here.

maverick Brendli

We had Tyler come to our Cub Scout Blue & Gold and he did a fantastic job! He was entertaining, engaging and informative. The kids were laughing and smiling the whole time. Tyler was in complete control and no one felt unsafe at any time! The emails keep coming in today thanking us for having him and what a great time both the kids and adults had. Thank you so much, Tyler!

Ken Benedetto

Take your kids...awesome adveture.

Rachael Hawk

Barbara Hyman

An institution. Hope it flourishes in that growing busy city center. Parking was a bear at lunch time.

poppies and sage

this hidden gem is perfect for creature+loving kids of all ages. as a homeschool mama, we love heading to rizzo's for educational programs, as well as drop in visits...we have done both in the last few months and plan on many more. there's a colorful variety of reptiles, fish, birds and fuzzy cuties and the staff make learning an entertaining and hands on experience for everyone. if you want to fall in love with a few ferrets, hold a tarantula, learn a lot and support an amazing place, check if out

Rachael Dean

My kids were confused with children for a birthday party so we were just left to wander the reptile room. Didn't see the other animals really. It also took about 10min to have someone ring up their toys. No one at counter. My mom had a great experience when she went the week before.

Josef & Cindy Martin

What a great experience for the little ones!

Charlie D

Visited this place close to a dozen times this summer with my 4 year old son. The staff is friendly, courteous and always makes sure my son has a blast. Aces across the board.

Robyn Dickinson

This place is amazing. I think most people from the area can attest that. But, I think I offer a bit of a unique perspective otherwise I would just let my five-star review speak for itself. But I really wish I could give them 10 Stars. My ten-year-old son is obsessed with this place. We had his ninth birthday done by them as well. My son has some special needs so we had them come out to us so that he (son) could be in a familiar place but I took him to their building when we were searching for a fun party idea. Dominick Rizzo made such an impression on my son when we first went, not only did my son beg to have Rizzo's do his birthday party, he insisted that Dominick be the one to come out and do the show. Everyone at the party had a blast. He brought so many different types of animals that even if a child was scared of one there would be an animal there that they would be thrilled to see. Earlier this year we went there for a movie night event that they were hosting and it was just as spectacular. We came a little early (not a little... a whole hour) and the entire staff that was there were incredible. They had a private party going on but one of the other girls that werent working the party walked around with my son and let him feed some of the animals and brought down some animals for him to see and entertained him beyond his wildest dreams. He just wanted to be able to get there and have time to get used to the space but this girl was basically his private tour guide. She was just as informative and enthusiastic and engaged with him (and myself) as the owner himself was the first time we came. They staff some really incredible people. I can't rave about this place enough.

Jay Decker

Samantha came to our Cub Scout pack meeting and brought a crew of entertaining, educational and extremely patient animals. The boys, siblings, and parents were all entertained. Thank you so very much!

Macon Deade

Id like to start out by say i have watched this reptile show for close to 5 years, as a camper and as a counselor. This man is absolutely spectacular when it come to the shows. He has been doing it for years and knows how to entertain the adults and the kids. I work at a nature camp and we see tons of animal shows and he is by far the best one we have come. All the groups of kids and their counselors rearrange their scheduled each week to make sure they are there when he comes. He is awesome with the kids and the animals. Plus he knows his own animals really well so he had give you a better experience then someone who is just a caretaker. Also regarding what people were saying before about him being unsafe, never once has and animal or a child been in danger at any of the shows I have watched. Its a nature camp so the safety of the kids and nature is the top priority. He is well worth the money and gives a great experience.

christopher Heike

Save yourself the 10 dollars a head and take the kids to a Big Pet Store.

John Kotlowski

My son absolutely loves snakes so this was the perfect find for us. We drove up from Ocean Twp and the staff there walked my son and I through all the reptiles. Very informative and interactive with my 4 year old. They took snakes out for him to touch, hold, and even help feed. I would highly recommend Rizzo’s to anyone. They were all very welcoming and extremely knowledgeable. You can easily tell it’s more of a passion and love for the animals than anything else. Thanks for an awesome day with my son.

Roy Longyhore

Very friendly staff, lots of animals

Sarah Turnamian

Such a fun place for my young kids. We got to watch a show and help feed the animals. My kids loved it!

Stefano Baroutoglou

I loved all the reptiles. There were a lot that I have not seen yet there.

This place is great. Took my son there who is a huge fan of reptiles. The animals are awesome and the staff is very helpful. Lindsay (exact name?) took us around and showed all of the animals and explained everything and made the visit great. The place is small but very well managed. Highly recommend.

Stefano

Great for kids ,staff is awesome

Alison Grolemund

Cool place to go for kids who are interested in reported and amphibians.

Pamela Ann

This was a fantastic place. We attended for a birthday party and will for sure return again. Not only did they have the kids involved but also the adults. We didn't just learn about each species they also taught us what it takes to maintain them. Teaching kids at a young age what it's really like to take care of an exotic pet. Rizzos may become a place we go to all the time. Five stars all the way.

Jenny Oliveira

Very nice place

Scoretron

I got to pet a ferret.

phillip doremus

The staff has great enthusiasm for their jobs and the kids just loved it. Great place to take the family.

Matthew Alderson

Awesome for to touch animals

Paul DiQuattro

We had an amazing time with our kids! The staff did an incredible job!!

Mr C

It was fun the kids loved it.

Anna Bruno

Katherine Herbert-Berger

Wonderful place for kids to learn about wildlife. Helpful staff, interesting animals.

Sandra Romanowska

It was a waste of 20 bucks. Could have just went to pet smart with my child instead. The staff is really friendly but there really wasnt much for my daughter to do besides be in a opened room filled with tanks. Thought she would have been able to experience petting some of the animals. Most likely never going again or suggesting this place to parents.

Bob Lindquist

Had a really great time. Laura did a great job with our 3 grandkids. Lots of hands on time with animals and great info for kids and adults

Brittany Stratford

This place was fantastic!!! Had a camp field trip with kids ranging from the age of 5 1/2 to 9 and they loved it!! The staff was so good with the kids and organized. I definitely recommend anyone to go visit Rizzo's!

David Van Way

Frank Punturieri

Great place to bring inquisitive children to learn about creatures like snakes, lizards and turtles etc.

Patricia Katz

Love this place, probably even more than my kids. The staff is very friendly and very patient with children around the animals. The guided tour was very casual while being informative and fun. There are quite a few animals you can touch, my kids loved it. There's also a small area of toys and books, which is a great distraction when waiting for different animals to be brought out. Definitely will go again! $10 per person over 2 years old.

Anthony Pinto

Never there

Jazmin Cruz

My 18 month old daughter loved it and touched every creature Ms. Grace brought her! We had a wonderful time. Everyone is very nice and professional. It's amazing to be able to touch the animals in a comfortable environment :)

Jessica Struble

Everyone was great. We went on a Sunday after a snow storm and we were the only ones there. The ladies were great, great tour and great interaction!! We'll be back!!

Gypsy Goddess

Awesome

victoria benaroya

I went with a camp and they absolutely loved it! The staff was very friendly and engaging especially Sam! Would definitely recommend! Careful if you volunteer you might end up holding a python!

Jeter Dog

Great staff. Fun environment. Great for children and adults. Turtles, sbakes, giant tortoise, birds, etc.

Harut Berberyan

Interactive experience. Very friendly and informative staff. Small fee for tour. Totally worth it a visit. We go every year or twice a year.

James Greenfield

Dominic from Rizzos cake to our home this snowy morning for my son's 3rd birthday - it was fantastic! Adults and kids of all ages were transfixed as Dominic introduced us to his furry and not so furry friends. My son had the best time. Highly highly recommend - engaging, educational, and great fun. Thank you Rizzo's and thank you Dominic!

KEN NOTARO

Staff is amazing. Every interactive with the kids in the group. Had a blast..

Guido Appelgren

Good experience for young children. Knowledgeable staff. Hands on with snakes, lizards chinchillas, etc. Convenient location just off route 206 Flanders.

Yakov Biegeleisen

Pooja Hiremath

Cozy place to introduce children to various animals!

Franceline Dorcent

Great experience. Very educational.

Danisa Alyssa

I went there with my staff and preschool students who all enjoyed this place very much! Staff members were so filled with energy and excitement which added to the great experience. Students were allowed to pet mammals such as the ferret and the chinchilla, shown reptiles such as the alligator, snakes, toads. It was just amazing. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Patricia Bednarick

We had our son's birthday party here!! Amazing experience!

Josh Louis

Very friendly, informative staff & a good variety of rescued animals - mostly lizards & reptiles. We'll definitely visit again!

Lyonix Jimenez Rivera

Personal muy atento y muy bien preparados para ofrecer información sobre diferentes animales. Muy agradable.

Alena Polesin

Rizzo's is a small spot that has a variety of animals and the staff is INCREDIBLE. I was a great experience. The presentation that they give is great for children of all ages. My 4 year old was frightwned of the more scarier animals so we stepped away. Another staffperson (Amy) approached us and asked my daughter if she wanted to see a cute cuddly animal. My daughter was re-engaged and the next thing I know we were back with the group petting a 80lb yellow boa! THEN ... After the group left Amy came back and was nice enough to pull out a few animals for us to pet. By the time we got home she wanted to be like Amy and feed the animals.

Tina McCrorey

Carmine Ray

Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. Owner and his staff are top notch.

Andrew Intili

Great collection of animals and very friendly staff that are great with the kids

Jeff Campoli

Very educational great for the kids

Rosy Link

I am a camp counselor and I love the Rizzo's Reptiles animal show; it is a great part of our camp program. All of the counselors look forward to it each week and make sure to watch it. No one wants to miss the show! The campers who have seen the shows before are eager to do it again. Dominic is excellent with the kids, he really engages them and keeps their focus. The animals he brings are always interesting, and the kids are able have a safe an education experience. His own enthusiasm and love of animals is what makes his program exciting.

Kacey K.

This place is amazing! It's like a zoo only better! A lot of the animals are rescues which is always something I love to hear. They let you hold or pet almost all of the animals that they have. It's great for kids and adults. It's very educational. It's not expensive at all and you could easily spend a couple hours there. Just make sure you like reptiles of all sorts before you go!

Sara Mae

Amazing place to bring kids (and adults) of all ages! The staff is well educated and experts on warming kids up to the animals. My toddler was HOOKED! We'll go back whenever we are in town. Would be an amazing birthday location!

Awni Hamati

The worst show I ever seen.Im a animal lover I cant believe what hes doing to these animals has got them in a black container with little air holes they are pets and hes using them as props I wish I can post pictures it's very inhumane I want this to stop transporting animals in black boxes from house to house I I would never book him

Nancy Ziebert

My son loved Dominic's presentation, and so did all of his friends. He was informative, hysterically funny, and absolutely kept everyone safe. The best part is that I think the parents were laughing harder than the children! We got lots of rave reviews from all of our guests and our kids are still talking about the party, which was several months ago. I also know that Rizzo's Reptiles has been doing presentations at my children's preschool for many years and they are very well-respected & appreciated for their excellent work. I would recommend Rizzo's Reptiles without reservation!

CM Ro

Last week, Rizzo's sent a presenter, Jessie, to our location to do a birthday party for our 8 year old son. I loved the fact that they allowed my son to browse their selection of animals online ahead of time and choose his favorites (and which ones not to bring), and they were able to accommodate most of his requests. Jessie arrived on time and full of upbeat energy. At the party, we had 12 eight year old boys who sat there for an hour fascinated and engaged the whole time, which is no small feat! Jessie was very knowledgeable about all of the animals, answering all of the boys' questions and giving them fun/weird facts to laugh at so that it was really "edu-tainment"-- the boys learned without even knowing they were learning. We were extremely happy with the presentation and highly recommend Rizzo's and Jessie to anyone who wants to host a great party!

Emily Palazzolo

The staff here is great with kids!

Brian Homeyer

Such a cool place. Great experience all around!

Anthony Palazzolo

Great Place The staff team are so friendly I was with my 2 years old Daughter she got to play with Turtle Feeding Fish was amazing

Robert R.

Super friendly staff, great set of animals for the kids to learn about.

Lisa Procacci

Love it here... had my sons birthday here (5th birthday) the staff was amazing and very attentive. The kids were paying attention to the host and she kept their attention. Thank you so much and I'll be coming in again!

Brian Pawlak

Alright, could have more animals....but I'm biased...

Shaun Reilly

Awesome experience! We got a guided tour of the animals along with at least 10 different animals that were taken out of their enclosures for my kids to touch or look at. We also got to witness various animals being fed. Very accommodating staff. Would recommend!

Ohav Kahalany

Chelsea Moore

Kaitlyn Livardo

We went here for a field trip with about 50 students. This was my favorite experience for a field trip by far! I loved how accommodating and structured the day was. Everything was made so easy and scheduled out perfectly. The staff is incredible! Every member was helpful, hard working, super knowledgeable, and awesome with the kids. It makes things that much better when the staff loves what they do:) the children were contained yet busy, and very interested in all the animals. I would highly recommend this place and can’t wait to go back next year for another trip with my students. A great day was had by all; and as a teacher, I am not even exhausted at the end of the day!

Sapana Pathak

Great

Jing Jing Wu

Had a great birthday party for my son turning 5!! I enjoyed it as much as he did. They did a wonderful job with the show & the party.

Nicole Fiore

The best birthday party for my son that we've had, ever, hands down!!! The absolutely wonderful staff (specifically Tina, who ran the entire animal adventure) and the owner, Dominic, made every guest at my son's birthday party feel welcomed and special. As the party host, I did not have to lift a finger; I enjoyed every moment of the birthday party, right along side my son. Tina was incredible with our party of 23 kids. The space is fantastic - tons of breathing room for all of the kids and their parents. Dominic is calming and positive and insists that his clients enjoy the party just as much as the birthday kid. I HIGHLY recommend this venue for a different and magnificent experience for your family, whether it is a birthday party or an open learning time. Dominic, Tina, and all of the other staff are delightful, knowledgeable, helpful, and kind. THANK YOU SO MUCH, RIZZO'S WILDLIFE WORLD!!!! We will be back!

Red Abbott

Dominick Rizzo gave an awesome show at our daughter's birthday party with snakes, lizards, frogs, turtles, and more. His rapport with kids and adults was great and he was very good at keeping things moving along so that the hour flew by.

Anthony Zotto

Janet Haines

Loved it. The people were friendly and knowledgeable. Best birthday party I ever attended for kids. The adults liked it as much as the kids !

John Retherford

Great place, great guide, got to touch lots of different animals and reptiles.

Metuchen Friends of the Family

We had Sammy come to our summer camp to show our kids the awesome animals and we were so amazed at the phenomenal animals and her presentation. She knew exactly what to say to the children to keep them engaged. We will definitely be using them for our "safari week" theme next year. WE LOVE RIZZOS WILDLIFE!!!!

christine destefano

Best part is your own private nature guide who educates you on each animal and takes them out for you to touch, hold or have a photo op!

Shaniece Degazon

A really cool small place for kids and adults. Under 2 years old is free admission. $10 admission for all others. They have small parties for kids. You can pretty much hold and interact with all the animals here even the hissing cockroaches

I Marek

We had an amazing party experience at Rizzo's Wildlife World! The staff was very knowledgeable, interactive, attentive and simply fantastic with kids and adults :) Our guests are still raving about the party and the variety of animals they were able to learn about and observe. Highly recommended!!!

Alex Friedland

Awesome place to bring your kids, or even go yourself. The staff is friendly and very knowledgeable of all their animals they house. The animals are kept in great condition as well. You will get a great one on one with the animals and staff. You will definitely learn something new by the time your visit ends.

Dmitry Belyavsky

A small but wonderful animal encounter center. Each group gets a personal guide(it was just 4 of us) and we got to touch at least half of the animals. There are mostly reptiles here, but we also got to meet a very playful ferret.

Annie Graziani

Excellent time and totally entertaining for kids of all ages!

Michelle Stocker

Great experience!

Christopher Gallo

Booked them last minute because of rain in the forecast and let me say they were AWESOME! Best decision we made. There staff was very friendly and very kid friendly! You will not be let down if you book them!

jennifer silverio liriano

Lindsay Blide

Its a good place for little kids but then it quickly looses older kids attention. The smell of urine hits you in the face as soon as you walk into the place. It was very gross feeling knowing other kids are playing in their and touching animals all while there is an unpleasant smell. The Rizzo travel show is great, and has no smell. Its hard to eat pizza and cake when it smells so badly.

big briza

Had a great experience with our 2 year old today. The staff was very friendly and welcoming and Amy was great with my son - very patient, taking out any animal we asked for. She was very knowledgeable and made our visit fantastic!!

Elizabeth Nader

Rizzo's Reptile Discovery is by far the best entertainment you can book for a kids' event. We just had him at a Cub Scout pack meeting in Morristown, and the kids went crazy...they loved it and so did the parents. I also hired Rizzo's for a birthday party in my home for my oldest son, and it was fabulous. After attending my party, a close friend hired Rizzo's to come to her son's party as well! My family is a big fan and we wholeheartedly recommend Dominic Rizzo....his animal knowledge is deep, his presentation entertaining, his sense of humor is engaging and I felt very safe around the animals he brought. Dominic has a special way that he connects the audience and our Pack is already asking to have him back. Thank you Dominic for another amazing show!

Aaron Feuer

Samantha M Corsi

Awesome place! My 2 year old niece had a real fun time! Awesome and knowledgeable staff.

Danielle Kwan

We had an AMAZING time celebrating my son's 6th birthday here. The staff was wonderful - especially our host Lindsay. We had visited a few weeks ago prior to booking the party and that visit was just as awesome. They have a great mix of animals and a good amount the kids can touch. The show was interactive and kept the kids' interest. We would definitely recommend Rizzo's for a party or just a visit!

Lori Tunis

My Kindergarten class visited Rizzo's for our field trip and was a huge success. They staff was organized, knowledgeable and great with the students. It was very hands on which the kids loved! I would highly recommend this for your class!!!

George Varkey

Great place. We had a fabulous party. Dominic you are amazing! Dominic is great entertainer for all ages.

Leah Noble

Amazing presenter and service from beginning to end! Highly recommend

Linda Heinkel

This place is great! Their staff and reptiles are equally entertaining. I've seen these guys at an offsite birthday party and the woman handler was so enthusiastic and really got the crowd going. We recently attended a birthday party on site at their location and it was super special. They do a wonderful job!

Snooze GaBa

It was great!!(:

Lori Shaw

We just had my son’s 5th birthday party at Rizzo’s! I wish I could give more stars!! It was incredible- everyone had the best time and haven’t stopped talking about it! Dominic was amazing and really had our son as the star of the show with the animals. I highly recommend having a birthday party there- the staff is just as wonderful and helpful! We had the absolute best experience and it was the best birthday ever!! Thank you so much!

andrew moschella

Owners are very nice and the show is funny and interesting

Alena Nichols

Incredible! Definitely a hidden jem... I was a guest at a party this weekend. Had as much fun as my son did. Miss Tina did our program and she was hilarious and exciting. Never had an experience like this. She went above and beyond to make the birthday kid but also the guests feel so special. I would suggest you request her because there were some young kids working there who weren't as comfortable. I thought the owner seemed a bit rude and in your face but other people seemed to like him. The staff and experience was very memorable. Be back for a visit soon...with friends!

Brianna’s Boring Life

Excellent show! Had my daughters party there twice!

Nan Falco

Good eat time staff great
