***Note: As of now, the uWInk in Woodland Hills is no longer open for lunch.

uWink Woodland Hills is a regular lunch stop for me. Not so much for the food, but for the technology. Think of this as a Chuck E Cheese for adults. Each table has at least 2 monitors that is the centerplace for uWink. With the monitor, you can order food, drinks, play games solo or with the whole restaurant. You can even pay for your meal right at the table. This isn’t to say that the staff is non-existent. For the most part, this is one of the friendliest staff around. It’s just you can do most anything at your table instead of waiting to speak with a staff member.

Created by Nolan Bushnell, the legendary creator of Pong, Atari, Chuck E Cheese, and more. He and his family is very involved in this project. The locations that we’ve visited are the Woodland Hills and the Hollywood location. With the exception of the tabletop touchscreen computers, they are quit different in atmosphere and sometimes food. My preference is the Woodland Hills shop.

The food really varies and the menu changes a bit too much. They have the usual fare of burgers and salads but there has been some wonderful creations that came and gone like the Monster Burger and the Godfather Pizza. WISH they would come back.

Menu items also change in costs from time to time. Ranging from REALLY expensive to pretty affordable. It’s pretty affordable right now. Hope this stays for awhile.

Favorite sih; Romaine lettuce chicken salad. Be sure to go to options before submitting you choice to add on some more stuff like avocado.

If you do go into the Woodland Hills store, be sure to check out the top scores for most of the games. “WOOF” is yours truly!
