Bowling, billiards, and bars. Oh my! It’s enough to work up an appetite. Attached to the glow-in-the-dark neon fantasyland of Kings Lanes & Billiards, Kings Restaurant has a sleek, retro feel with comfort food for the energy for a strike (but not a strike-out…there are cute singles bowling in every lane). Grab a seat in a comfy booth and delve into the double cut pork chop with mashed potatoes and spinach, a huge pastrami on rye, or the big nacho plate with all the fixings. Classic cocktails are old faves like mai tais and mojitos, while the adventurous toss back a "New Classic”—the world-famous Big Ball for Two, a pricey but gigantic concoction of rums, brandy, sours, and juices. Drink just one of those and you won’t even care about the horrible bowling shoes you’re wearing.
