Bowl Incline

What a fun and upscale venue! Our was in town for a company retreat and ventured up from Tahoe City. Everyone had a blast! It was super easy and affordable to reserve online. The staff were great. Plus the in-house restaurant is amazing!

Love going here when around Incline Village. Sam Choy diner food is delicious. Arcade has a lot of variety. Good drink selection and lots of TVs - great spot to watch games. Bowling equipment and lanes are super well kept, recommend reservations on busy weekend nights. Fun and friendly vibes all around.

I keep trying to come back but I have yet to meet a bartender that doesn’t act inconvenienced when we want to order food or drinks. They seem so mad to be there and will not come back to see if we need anything else. It’s unfortunate because the food is great and the building is so nice now. I am a local and would have loved to become a regular.

Wow! Amazing place, probably one of the nicest bowling alleys I've been to! Staff is outstanding and the place is immaculate and spotless. You can order food from the Ohana Diner while you bowl too. We had the Ube Chessecake and Dole Whip, felt like we were in Hawaii upon taking the first bites. We came in today and they had live music from 6pm-9pm. Great arcade with variety of games, pool table and air hockey as an added bonus. Highly recommend this place if in you're in town. We will definitely be back!

Fun place for kids and yes, adults too! We didn't get to enjoy the bowling, but the food and drinks were great. A solid family and friends place to enjoy a meal, drinks, and lots of laughs.

Wow this place is amazing! There is so much to do inside and outside for families and friends. This has to be the best food I have ever had at a bowling establishment. There is a lot of staff working and everyone was friendly and attentive. We had dinner there and the food is exceptional! If you are in Incline Village you have to visit Bowl Incline.

pretty expensive and we weren't able to even finish one game. Service staff seemed angry and annoyed. Amazing spot normal folks cant afford to play

Something to do in the Incline Village area check it out! They have food with an Hawaiian flavor, full bar, games and of course bowling! We had food and drinks and then tried our best at bowling! The trip to Incline Bowl was fun and relaxing!

Spam musubi 4/5 - these were pretty good. Just wish they were a bit bigger. But the sauces were good and made it a bit different Poke 4/5- fish was very fresh and sauces were good. Not a big serving of fish for the price Went during August and we made a reservation but there were many open lanes for bowling.

Great family entertainment, great variety of food items to choose from and an amazing atmosphere! $50 an hour to bowl, $4 shoe rental. I prefer the flat fee of $50 versus paying per game especially with kids that like to play fast - they're able to get lots of games in! There was a video game room for kids to stay busy , which was nice and kinda cornered off to keep them somewhat corralled. Bar was next to the game room so parents can enjoy a beverage while the kids are entertained. The alley offers a great patio with corn hole if you choose, colorful patio furniture and flowers. I absolutely loved all the vibrant colors. Staff were extremely nice, prompt with orders and making sure the place stays extremely clean.

Nice staff/ appealing Patio! Came last Tuesday with friends for dinner/drinks. Our 4th visit this year (usually Monday's and tiki Thursday) as we enjoy the outdoor bar patio. Tiffany, the hostess/orchestrator, greeted us and is always delightful! Though a Tuesday, they were pretty busy and unfortunately were short on staff ...(a bit disappointed that the patio bar was closed but we know the challenge of staffing at the Lake). Despite that, Tiffany politely asked us to wait until she could clear outdoor tables for us. She and our waitress worked their tails off to appease us as well as cover all the patrons. The team was small but worked well together and are professional and courteous.

What an amazing experience! The food here is absolutely legit. We were playing pickle ball at the courts nearby in Incline village and we were asking some of the locals where we should go to eat afterwards. Several people said to go to bowl incline. I have to admit I was a bit confused. I reiterated that we were just looking to go grab a bite after PickleBall and they again said to go to the bowling alley. When we arrived, this was the nicest and cleanest bowling alley that I've ever seen. There is also a complete restaurant that is really beautiful with a full bar, patio area, heaters. The waiters and hostess were very kind and it looked like they were really happy to work there. The menu was diverse and interesting. They were Hawaiian dishes, Korean, fried chicken, burgers, poke. Our group decided to sample many things on the menu. We started with the Spam appetizer, which was really fantastic and reminded me of Hawaii. The poke tacos were excellent. The fish quality was top-notch and the sauce was really like something from Maui. I couldn't believe it. I had the Korean fried sandwich which was perfectly crispy, sweet and spicy, in all the right ways. The double smash burger was a generous helping of deliciousness with high-quality beef and cooked perfectly. Fried rice was a showstopper. Definitely recommend this. The food was amazing and we will definitely be coming back. We have a pickleball tournament upcoming in incline village and we're planning on bringing all of our friends to bowl incline to eat afterwards. But perhaps the best part of the entire encounter was the ambience in general happiness of everybody that was working at the restaurant and in bowling alley. We also have the opportunity to meet Scott, the owner. He is one of the most dynamic and funny people I've ever met in my life. We also learned about from everything from the physicality of college rugby to the meaning of life itself. Remarkably, Scott remembered everybody's name at the table as well as nicknames that he had just given us. This was overall an experience that none of us will forget. We are planning on coming back to bowl incline in the near future to make new memories.

FUN! Even non-bowlers can have a great time! Lunch bowls are fabulous and one is more than enough for two people. Don't forget to try the very large pretzel with two dipping sauces--delightful. Will be back!

Waited 2 hours because the hours were wrong online. Then we were told there's no open bowling on Wednesdays. If you're close, make the extra drive to Sparks and go to Coconut Bowl. Been here many times, but we won't be back.

This place is a vibe, a hidden gem! Music playing throughout the spot. Very welcoming, colorful, and chill. They have many lanes you can bowl on. Their outdoor patio is spacious and offers many different seating areas and yard games. The staff were friendly and helpful! The Ohana Diner is a must try. The food was really good and they offered a menu with awesome island flavor options. I tried the Spam Musubi because it looked delicious. And that it was, but I think the Spam should be pan fried before assembling to give it that caramelized flavor. Just heating up Spam and not pan frying it is not how you should be eating Spam. We tried half of the regular and half of the spicy Spam Musubi, definitely recommend doing this. It's pretty big, enough to share, and looks like a sushi roll. The Korean Fried Chicken sandwich was on point. It was perfectly crunchy and light, I liked how they used a chicken thigh, it was tender and juicy. The tots were perfectly crispy and soft! They also offer a gluten free bun for their burgers and sandwiches. The PB&J pizza was fire. Pineapple, Bacon, and Jalapeno definitely hit the spot. The crust was delicious. Perfect size to share if you're ordering other menu items. Also a good size if you don't want to share. They offer a gluten free crust option made from rice flour and not cauliflower, which is definitely a bonus. They have a full bar and great seating space with multiple TV's. They have a great beer on tap selection. If you're into Espresso Martini's they have a machine that pours out a martini perfectly. It was pretty tasty. Lots of different island cocktails to choose from too. They have a fantastic looking dessert menu. I just wish they offered more gluten free options. The Ube Cheesecake sounded amazing! Overall this is an awesome spot! Look forward to coming back!

Great modern bowling alley. Also has various arcade games, axe throwing, pool tables and bocci ball. Nice restaurant with pizza and various Asian/Hawaiian cuisine. Had lunch twice so far. Ordered the teriyaki chicken bowl and sweet n sticky chicken bowl. Each come with a choice fried rice or hapa rice and a salad (green salad, broccoli and potato Mac). Both dishes the chicken was very flavorful and with a large amount. The green salad comes with a house soy sauce dressing quite zingy. The potato Mac salad was creamy and also a vast amount. Also had the ice cream swirl which comes in vanilla and pineapple. The service was quick and friendly. Highly recommend and I definitely will be coming back!

I really wanted to try this place... but my experience wasn't what I expected! I came with my cheapskate in laws and my daughter who (in the past 6 weeks) was diagnosed with both ADHD and Autism level 1!! My daughter can be a bit "all over the place" and the yelp page had their hours wrong (we thought they closed at 10)... and had promised my daughter arcade time after dinner!! When we got last call and realized that wouldn't happen... she was VERY upset with me!!! Our waitress (had earlier) asked if we needed more from then kitchen and I had said no... but knew the ice cream at the end for a kiddo might ease the pain! The only flavors they had were pineapple and vanilla... which she was NOT into!! I quickly flagged down the head waitress so we could get something before the kitchen closed and my daughter said "I only like chocolate"... to which she said "I think the kitchen could figure something out".. and came back with a chocolate milkshake!! My daughter was just diagnosed this past summer so I am still learning the parenting ropes... but I have to say the service was outstanding!! I also had the scallop appetizer and shrimp tacos and MAN!!! Soooooo good!!

Literally *just* got home and felt the need to write a review. The service we received from Jamie tonight was the best I've experienced in so long. I appreciate her patience, hospitality, and overall welcoming personality. Made such a great experience for my first time here. Also, really clean establishment as well as very elevated dining for a bowling alley.

We went to Bowl Incline recently with our softball team. Jamie made the experience magical! She was super accommodating and helpful and friendly and we could not have been more impressed or grateful! You will be in good hands if you go to Bowl Incline and Jamie is there. :) Food is good, cocktails are great.

I'm going to knock off one star for making a reservation and then getting what I would consider the most horrible table, I didn't feel like asking for a better table, but if you make a reservation, give people good tables. Lots of tables were available. The chow mein was great but the portion was too small. The food all felt very heavy with lots of oil and salt,. The kids pizza was cool. The spam musubi was 8 pieces. Normally 2, if you don't like it you're stuck. The Pork Taco is okay, nothing amazing. The bowling is the bees knees. 5 stars for the bowling experience, 3 stars so did you do at best for the food. All this being said, bowling is important.

We came in there on last Monday and had excellent service from Tiffany. She was over the top making sure we had everything we needed- and we're enjoying our time. Thank you Tiffany-

For bowling, it doesn't get cleaner or nicer than this place. I'm used to bowling alleys that are dark, dirty and ancient - but this place is exactly the opposite! We've been several times but most recently came and ate dinner beforehand. Food was ok though we weren't impressed with the portion of meat inside the tacos...it seemed quite minimal for the cost ($7 per taco). We were seated near the entrance which wouldn't have been a big deal except that there was a huge youth group that came in during our meal. They stood right next to our table and it felt as if we were in line with them! Not ideal. If you order the tots as a side to the burger, make sure you have lots of friends to help you eat them - the portion is HUGE!

Good times and even better food! We hit up Bowl Incline with some friends of ours and their kids and had a blast. I use to be a decent bowler but this night I couldn't bowl a strike or spare to save my life. I think its because all I could think about between each turn was getting back to my Italian sandwich! The pizzas are awesome as well! Service was spot on too. The servers constantly walk by and ask if you need anything. Good thing I was taking a night off from the vino. I call it dryish January. The level of service they provided could have easily turned into me being over-served lol. Anyhow would totally recommend Bowl Incline and just as a side note make sure you book your lane ahead of time online as the place was packed on a Thursday night! Oh btw, love the big tv's above the alleys with sports on. Nice touch fellas!

Walked in for dinner. No hostess to seat us. When the angry hostess finally showed up With an "eye roll" seated us and we sat For 10 minutes and I had to ask to be served. Not gonna lie... disappointed

Fun spot! Eclectic menu. Bowling is so much fun. They have very updated tech for a bowling party.

Food is meh and overhyped/overpriced. The bowling was fun and I'd go again but one of the lanes we were at, the bumpers were stuck on the on position. The staff were nice though.

If you are looking for amazing food AND a great family atmosphere, THIS IS the place in Incline Village! Come to bowl but don't miss out on the island style menu designed by celebrity chef Sam Choy. My recommendation is the fried rice bowl with meatballs *chef's kiss*! Everything on the menu is great and all the servers are kind and delivered top tier service! (Jamie and Tiffany ;). While I have never bowled here, it looks like so much fun! When in Incline Village, definitely make this a stop!

Fun, retro bowling experience with amazing food! You would never expect this type of food caliber at a bowling alley. Poke bowls are spot on. Others in the group had sandwiches, pizzas and other types of bowls. Service was attentive and friendly. Overall, fun family night!

Hunter waited on us and he was very attentive and kind. 5 stars for him! Side note: bring back the Photo Booth! I went with the intention of taking photos in it to share on social media. I'm genuinely sad it's gone.

Food has gone downhill since it first opened. Menu is smaller too. I ordered the sweet and spicy ck bowl. It was just dry pieces of Ck on rice. I had to ask for more sauce and it was still disappointing. It wasn't sweet or sticky. Not even any chives on it for flavor or color. I have to remind myself this is bowling alley food- which I what you should expect . I wouldn't eat here again unless really hungry and no other options when bowling.

Tiffany and the gang are amazing! Try the spam masubi and the watermelon salad without fault! And if you're feeling adventurous like me, do the spicy masubi! Service is first class, fun for all ages! It's a Tahoe fave!

Everything about this place was fantastic except for the bowling pins themselves. They are attached to strings that help them reset. However, this makes the pins not fly/spin naturally, and we had a much harder time getting strikes and spares than normal. The facility itself was very clean and lively, the staff were friendly, etc. We had a very prompt server, and she was kind and friendly. I would go again, but with adjusted expectations for how my game will go.

Ambiance 5 stars Activities 5 stars Service 5 stars Bar drinks 2 stars a splash of tequila in margaritas & an exact shot of bourbon on the rocks Food 1 star kids pizza & churros were the best things. Mahi tacos were very fishy. Grilled chicken club undercooked bacon & very bland chicken breast. Korean fried chicken sandwich was basically tasteless.

Enjoyed a great evening with friends listening to music and eating good food Tiffany greeted us with such wonderful hospitality She always has a smile and makes sure everything is exactly what we want our experience to be!!!

If I could leave lower review trust me I would I came here with my family. As soon as we dig into our food it was so salty we asked for a new batch on two different kind of wings and were told they use the same sauce for both wings so they weren't even different flavored. Yes we got a refund but two different workers came to talk to us. The "sweet" wings were even saltier than the garlic salt, yes I understand for the second one but that tasted like pure salt. I also got an alcoholic drink and the server was so rude! I came up he looked so uninterested to serve me when I came up and said hello he just looked at me like I was bothering him he was much interested in talking to a different customer who seemed that was a regular there but I can't believe the attitude I got from him, no hello, no smile, just okay on my drink and walked away to make it. The whole ambiance of this place felt cheap and abandoned now we understand why nobody comes here.

We drove here from Sacramento after reading about an article in the sf gate. The owner is the creator of poke, and we figured this would be a fun trip to try out their food offerings. When we first walked in, we were greeted by the amazing staff and told to sit wherever we'd like. I love that! This place has a cool vibe! Bowling alley, bar, arcade, patio, axe throwing upstairs, and good music. Clean establishment and very clean bathrooms! But we came for the food!! Our server, Tam was incredible!! We really enjoyed talking to her, and you can tell that she is proud where she works and is truly happy to be there! She was fantastic :) We decided to start with a mai tai and 75 split cocktails. 5/5 Then we ordered the poke tacos & and the spicy musubi to share. Spicy musubi was 5/5 Poke tacos 10/5 The poke tacos hit all of the taste buds!! We just left and I already want to go back to get those. It was crunchy, soft, spicy, sweet, fresh, bright..all of textures in each bight. they were SO delicious! Then Tam offered each of us a dole whip sampler..and she was right, the perfect palate cleanser! Highly recommend this place!

Love the variety here. There was a variety of American, Asian, Hawaiian, etc. The ambiance was so nice here I felt like I was in a high school/college rom com movie! Unfortunately, we didn't get to bowl due to how packed it was. Service was excellent as well.

First of all, the decor is great. The vibe here is a very modern, clean bowling alley. However, the prices are crazy. Any time after 4pm, expect to pay well over $100 for one hour of bowling. The cheapest it gets is around $70/80 with shoes. The food is decent, but nothing amazing. THE BOWLING IS STRINGED PINS. If you are new to bowling, then don't worry about it, but my friends and I were looking to set new PBs that day, and stringed is not the same as regular. The quality of the balls and alleys are very nice. If you are looking for a premium bowling alley and willing to drop a pretty penny on it, this is the place for you. However I wouldn't recommend for a quick day activity with friends.

FOOD REVIEW ONLY tldr; Ohana Diner, epic Poke Tacos, good service, modern decor, decent seating. Came here on the strength of an SFGate review, was not disappointed. Server was Tam - great service! She gave a lot of advice on what to choose from the menu. Was considering both poke bowl and tacos, advised against it and am glad - tacos are enormous! Wanted to try a half portion of the Spam Musubi but they use a mold that doesn't allow for a half portion. Settled on Dole Whip dessert instead. * Poke Tacos - 5/5. These are enormous and absolutely delicious. All the tacos they serve are wrapped in a unique flour + corn tortilla with edamame hummus - very crispy and tasty. Plenty of poke inside making for a delightful treat. * Dole Whip - 4.5/5. I'm not normally a sorbet fan, but this combination of pineapple sorbet with li ming hui powder won me over. Wonderful way to end the meal. Overall an amazing place in Tahoe. Will definitely try the rest of the food next time I'm here.

Tiffany was amazing and food was great. There were lots of activities for the kids. Would definitely come back

My son wanted to bowl so we came here while visiting Reno. The atmosphere was fun and lively. We reserved the lane online so it was convenient and we were able to play right after check in. This place is good for coming with the kids since we have 4 and 3 years old with us. They have a diner that you can order food directly from and you can eat while bowling which is so great. We ordered poke salad, teriyaki chicken bowl, Ceasars salad, and cheese pizza. Food was good for what's expected in the bowling alley. Pizza was average but i thought other dishes were good. I went to ask the kitchen counter for grated cheese for the pizza because kids love eating them but they ran out. I am not sure what kind of kitchen ran out of grated parm cheese especially if they serve pizza on their menu. Overall, good place to come if you want to bowl and have dinner without having to leave the venue.

This place everything, food, bowling, a large bar, and mini arcade. While their menu prices are a bit steep for some food and drink for what it is, the service is good and there is so much to do. I was skeptical about a musibi plate costing as much as it stayed but it's a generous amount. Now, can you go to Hawaii and get a standard musubi for $2? Sure, but this is a nice sushi roll hybrid. Their drinks are well made too. Their fries are also very good. Asked for a beer and an aperol sprit which was good too. They have a nice cocktail list to get the evening started. The service is good and I hear the owner is doing good things for the local community.

The is is one of our favorite places to grab a bite and a cocktail and we were super excited to finally have the time to come in on a Thursday to listen to music. When we arrived we were told there was only couch seating outside, though it was empty. Yea, I understand a reservation system so wasn't upset. We ate inside, then asked our server if we could go outside with our cocktails to enjoy the music, he said yes. The "guard" at the door was gruff, again asking us if we had a reservation even though almost all shaded tables were empty. We said no, so she directed us to the chairs again the fence in the blazing hot sun. We accepted, but after 30 minutes left because it was just too hot to stay in those seats & during that time nobody came over to offer water or see if we wanted to order anything else, and not one table in the shade was seated with additional people during that time. We absolutely love Bowl Incline, but will probably skip Thursday nights if we don't have a reservation with shade.

We often go here just for the food ! the poke nachos, wings and pizza are excellent! but can someone that works there explain why the menu changes ? Theres 3 different kinds of chicken pizza, they rotate and i really want the bbq chicken but its only there every few months ! :(

GO! Not your average Bowling Alley! Not your average tiki bar, Poke restaurant, fine dining, patio, bocce ball, or game room! In fact, nothing but good food and fun times here. You'll also find the happiest staff and good service in town! We drop in to see Hunter, who told us the fresh mint in our drink was straight from their garden. We go there regularly...and if lucky also catch some music!

A group of friends (all 30+) and I planned a big get-together to celebrate some birthdays. When I arrived carrying a cake, a woman immediately approached me with a rude attitude and told me I couldn't even bring the cake inside unless I paid a $50 "cake fee." A cake fee--really? Especially when we were about to spend a good couple hundred dollars on four lanes, food, and drinks. I ended up taking the cake back to the car because the fee seemed ridiculous. At the end of the night, they tried to charge us for three hours per lane, even though we only bowled for two hours on each (the lights and computer shut off after 2 hours). And when we split the cost four ways, one card was charged four times. Not a great experience, and most likely will not be going back.

My family had an amazing evening at Incline Bowl. One person who stood out to us was Tiffany. She was friendly and helpful. She engaged our littles and made them laugh while being attentive to the whole group. The food and drinks were great and in all it was a fun experience.

Laura-Ann did a great job. She provided top notch service and was very friendly. We will return because of her and the amazing atmosphere.

Tiffany was great. She made the experience very enjoyable And made me feel welcome. The food and service was also excellent.

The food is delicious Hawaiian style - the spam Musubi was a huge hit. Patio is a nice ambiance for families and cocktails by fire pit. Our server Laura Ann was friendly and knew the food to answer our many questions. Highly recommend!

Tiffany is amazing. Great setting and love the food. There is a full schedule of great music this summer.

Bowl Incline is a local treat! It's easy to reserve lanes online and soon they will have a membership system. The lanes are clean and well maintained and the digital displays are fun. The staff is very attentive on all our needs while we play. The food is also amazing. We got the chance to meet Sam Choy the Poke Godfather sensation. We've been there just to have lunch. Go and bowl there! It's fun and food is awesome!

During our anniversary getaway, my wife and I wanted to try Sam Choy's Obama Diner located at Bowl Incline in Incline Village, NV. I read in article about Sam Choy, the chef who made poke famous so we wanted to try the famous poke bowl. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted by a staff member and we told him we came for lunch which we were promptly seated. He was very courteous and we each ordered the poke bowl. The bowling alley ambience was casual and we enjoyed the poke bowl. Afterwards, we walked to the arcade located at the back of the bowling alley and played several games with each other. We had a blast. We will come back whenever we are in the area.

What a surprisingly fun little spot nestled up in incline village! The restaurant by Sam Choy is top notch delicious food and the whole atmosphere (restaurant and bowling alley) is super casual and laid back, yet fresh and inspired. This place has an epic retro vibe going on with plenty of bowling lanes, a cool bar, a small billiard room, and an arcade. I think there may even be an axe throwing area that we never found. We mostly came for the food but ended up staying and having lots of fun on the games and billiards. If you're looking for a great meal in a casual and entertaining environment, this is it! Family friendly but also great for a date night.

Hubs and I have been BI patrons since 2014. We especially love the quirky marquee sign, and we were sad when it closed in order to renovate, but we just returned tonight to check out the new and improved place and could not be prouder of our hometown gem. Disclaimer: I lived in Hawaii for several years and know Chef Sam Choy's work and reputation very well, so imagine my great surprise and anticipation when I learned he was designing the menu!!! Of course, we purchased a brick that's on display on the patio, and follow BI on Instagram, too. Much to our surprise and delight, our patience paid off and we had a wonderful night bowling and trying out the cocktail and eats menu. It's arguably pricey at nearly $100 for a jam-packed night of fun, food, and drinks (but what isn't pricey in a post-COVID recession??). But seriously, my hubby and I can never agree on anything, yet we both agree that you can never ever go wrong spending your evening at Bowl Incline, making funny faces for the bowling computer camera, dancing and singing along to all the great music, cheering when you get a spare or strike, eating ono island grindz, and drinking delicious island-inspired cocktails. Seriously, it's actually great bargain and the best clean fun you can have in IV (plus, until now, I've never been able to say I was one of the first people to wear a pair of bowling shoes, throw a particular ball, or use a bowling lane, so there's that). Grab your socks--or don't, because they sell awesome socks if you "forget" yours--and bowling ball, and gather up your ohana to get over here ASAP to check out all that Bowl Incline now has to offer!

We had heard the food was great at Bowl Incline and decided to go have lunch. When we walked in, it was soooo noisy as the tables were right next to the bowling alleys and the place was full. This was December 26. We looked around and almost left because of the noise (we are seniors with bad hearing). Well, this lovely lady walked up to us to help. Kayla is her name. She convinced us to stay and took us to a table that wasn't so noisy. We had a great meal! thumbs up to this great place and excellent service!

Amazing spam musubi. And a bonus I met Sam Chow! I love his cookbooks Photo attached
