Amazing Jake's is an all-you-can-eat-buffet restaurant and indoor entertainment place for all ages. Here you will find rides like go-karts, bumper cars, carousel, train, and more. Also housed in this amusement space are fun activities like putt-putt golf, laser tag, a rock climbing wall, and an arcade area with games like mini-bowling, skee-ball, air-hockey, basketball, jump rope, and many more fun games for toddlers as well as the bigger kids.
Amazing Jake's is a fantastic place to beat the heat in the summer or freezing temps outside in the winter and still be able to enjoy the activities--only INDOORS!!! There is enough inside to keep the entire family busy and happy for several hours. This is a newer facility and everything is clean and organized. The buffet offers salad, soups, pastas, baked potatoes, pizza, desserts, and drinks. I found the salad, pasta, baked potato, and most of the desserts to be good. I found the pizza to be improved over the last time we went. My family and I enjoyed the movie dining room. It contains 4 Big Screen TV's and glow in the dark walls. You will also find a Sports dining room with a few smaller TV's as well and quite a few larger dining areas throughout. This is on the pricey side but you can get an unlimited pass that includes the food, all rides and activities, and it also gives you 20 points on your playcard toward arcade games as well per person - for 3 hours! There are tickets given for each game played and can be traded in for prizes. I highly recommend Amazing Jake's for a family day out or for an amazing birthday celebration!
FYI: In order to participate on the rock climbing wall, you must be wearing closed-toe shoes. Save on the expense if you print off online coupons. Another way to save some money would be to purchase unlimited passes for the kids only. I do not recommend paying individually for every activity as it will exceed the unlimited pass price.

Great Wall Super Buffet - Frisco, TX - Restaurant Review
4 out of 5 STARS!!!
Great Wall Super Buffet

I drove by the area in the afternoon and found it to finally be open with a Grand Opening Banner on display and immediately decided on it for dinner. We have been looking forward to another buffet in Frisco. Upon our arrival at 6:45 pm, we took a number and were told it would be a 30 minute wait. Pleasantly surprised, it only took 15 minutes to be seated.
The restaurant is draped in grandiose fashion with lovely chandeliers, art work, and niceties. It is inviting, spacious, and well organized. The buffet was clean and stocked often. I am not a fan of seafood but there was a large selection of sushi, oysters, shrimp, and crawfish if you enjoy these foods. You will find a nice soup, salad, fruit, and dessert bar as well. It was refreshing to find many items that even the pickiest kids will eat which makes for a more enjoyable dining experience. I sampled almost all of the dishes and found them to be delicious. My children said their food was good too and we plan on returning.
A couple of disappointments were the dinner price buffet for my daughter, she was charged the adult price of $12.95 for her buffet and the waitstaff did not speak or understand much English so communication is difficult when asking questions.
Overall, the staff were friendly and attentive to refills and the food was good. I recommend the newly opened Great Wall Super Buffet in Frisco, TX even though I have seen a few negative reviews. Go check it out for yourself!
