The Experience Reviews

Came here thinking it was still Dang Bbq Cantina as that's what Google said was here but it wasn't. Food was ok. Dang was way better.

The Island Spirit & Cocktail Con took place here at The Experience on 3/2 - undoubtedly it will become LI's best up & coming venue - great for any occasion. Susan & Naycer were incredible to work with, extending a level of hospitality that is not easily found in most places & is to be praised. They were extremely patient + attentive to our staff's & exhibitor needs. We are deeply grateful for their hard work & incredible hospitality. Thank you both & a huge thank you to Chris & Anthony for having The Experience represented with NY's Premier Cocktail Festival.

Aidan is the best. Must visit The Experience. The space is high tech and features plenty of fun for everyone from all ages.

Yesterday we celebrated my cousins 60th birthday. I was completely blown away with the venue. It’s amazing how accommodating the crowd eternally with us along with helpful for the complete set up and break down. Plus the wings are absolutely amazing. The event itself ever was on point, the stuff, the helpfulness and the attention to detail. Everything was beautiful and the place was cleaned. The food was good and again stuff for helpful and friendly. I loved the ice cream experience. So delicious.

The one who completely went above and beyond was NEYCER he was so amazing he attended to details, ensure we had all we needed. Ensure our time lines were on point. Not to mention as we are running around getting through the things planned in the agenda. He was ensure we had food drinks and we were fine. He just kept making sure we were okay and had everything we needed. Always checking in and helping bridge the gab with everything we needed. They were was no reason to feel anxious about anything going wrong as he was always present always around on top of everything. He absolutely amazed me with his customer service. He is definitely a true asset to this venue.

If you are looking for a location for an event this is it and please ask for neycer. I promise you won’t be disappointed. Thank you foe everything, our family had the best time and you all were a part of that.

Wow great food, really big salads and awesome burgers, lots of fun for the whole family with the sport simulator's. 5 star

This place was dope...I watched the super bowl here. Nice Private area.

Let me first start off by saying that the establishment is absolutely immaculate! The staff is so well attentive and I felt like we were constantly being asked if we needed anything and also we’re showing how to use all of the equipment in the simulator. The staff kept on checking in to give us tips. Now the food is absolutely amazing and the drinks are even better! Kudos to the experience and thank you so much to the staff and ownership. We will be telling all of our friends about it and even booked our daughter’s birthday party.

"The Experience" could easily also be called, "The Awesome Experience"! Our company just had our December Holiday Party there and all of our associates offered over-the-top praise. The fun and interaction in the gaming area, the food, and the service were all phenomenal. As for the latter, the whole staffing was really efficient but particular standouts included Chris (who helped manage our party from the beginning through the end), Susan (the hardworking bartender who bounced back-and-forth to support our group in 2 different rooms), and Neycer (our relentless-working Maître d’) all exceled in their roles. We hope to go back there again soon. It is recommended that everyone in the area should strongly consider "The Experience" for parties!!

Fantastic venue that can hold Christmas parties and family gatherings

I booked my boyfriend’s surprise 30th birthday party here. Not only was it super easy to book the party but Chris answered every single one of my questions. Aiden was incredible and made sure to check in with me and the rest of my guests during the party to ensure that everything was going smoothly. Everyone enjoyed the simulators and the food was delicious! I will definitely come back again!

I had a fellowship event for my Mens 3DI company.
Everything was perfect. The room was set beautifully, colors were perfect, food was amazing.
The maitre d' , Neycer Pereira,and his staff were outstanding. They were there when we needed them and not too much to be an annoyance. Just right!!!
Thank you to all who helped make our experience at "The Experience", Wonderful!!!!
AAA - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

We were so fortunate to have Neycer Pereira as the maître d at our wedding. He was incredibly attentive throughout the entire night, always making sure our cups were filled and that food was waiting at our seats whenever we needed a moment to eat. Neycer’s patience and friendliness with our family really stood out. He kindly guided guests to their seats, helped them find the restrooms, and made sure they were comfortable navigating the venue.

In addition to his warm demeanor, Neycer was impressively organized. He worked closely with my parents to ensure everything was set up perfectly, making the day run smoothly. One of the highlights for my wife and me was how accommodating he was—he gave us a private room to relax, where we could take a breather, and truly helped us feel at ease on such a busy day.

We can’t thank Neycer enough for his hard work and professionalism. He played a huge part in making our wedding day unforgettable.

We had our party at Simplay this past weekend. Everything was perfect. It was the best night! Huge shout out to Neycer, our maitre d. He was so attentive to our needs and went above and beyond to make sure everyone was happy and having a good time. At one point during the night, he literally fed me since he saw I wasn’t eating. I have nothing but the most amazing things to say. Our guests were so impressed with the entire night. Simplay was the best event space to have our party. Also, from the start, Chris, the manager, made everything seamless and was there for us throughout the planning process and present on the day of and throughout the event. Thank you to everyone at Simplay who made our event the best!!

Place is a hidden gem! Spacious, newly renovated, clean, nice drinks. Neycer the Asst Manager was knowledgeable and patient showing us around the place. Look forward to booking our next group outing!
