Yelper Emily M. added, "I love how this bar has old-school games like the pinball machines. The DJ plays good dancing music that makes you want to get low."

Pinstripes is a modern American eatery and cocktail bar that doubles as a bowling alley and bocce court.

On the menu, you'll see dishes like the Famous Prime Rib Dip (served on a pretzel roll with provolone cheese, horseradish cream and au jus), the filet mignon (espresso crust, creamy polenta, Calabrese broccolini and peppercorn sauce) and the housemade gnocchi and ahi tuna (with arugula, cilantro, lime and Calabrese vinaigrette).

Yelper Ali C., who visited on June 3, wrote, "I would say it's 60 percent bar/restaurant and 40 percent games. They have a couple of bowling alleys downstairs and some upstairs. This is more of a place you can go eat and drink and play a bowling game on the side if you want."

Hang L. added, "The food was amazing! I had the fettuccine Bolognese and it was very flavorful and meaty. I was lucky enough to try some of my friend's boneless ribs and it was delicious! The meat was so tender and juicy."
