Yeah! a place I can take my son and know that he really enjoyed himself.
Okay, I had fun too. If you never did laser tag, than here is the place to not only be a kid, but get a good workout.
The video games are pricey, so expect to have $5-10 for just the games, but  playing laser was a lot of fun! Especially for someone who is not into playing games. A great place for kids and adults!
I just took my staff for our Holiday party here with a private room and two games of laser tag. I have to say, the customer service and the set up was just like how we do it at my spa. They were attentive and our party coordinator Richelle was energetic and always there for us. I really like the fact Mauro, the GM took the time to introduce himself and to make sure we were happy. It was sooo fun, my staff could not stop raving about the party and hope we do this next year. My husband made me call them the following day to book his staff for their Christmas Party.

If you are over 12 this place isn't that fun as you would think. It's pretty expensive for a round of laser tag and it's only about 15 minutes.

The maze is cool but there is no running or crawling so your just walking around and after 5 to 7 minutes it's kinda boring.

I would go back if I was taking kids to play but not adults, you can go to play miniture golf at the Castle Park instead for the same price and it's way fun when your drunk!

As a struggling musician/poet, I often spend my time in the dark corners of the psyche. It's hard to find the light in this world when you've swallowed and sucked down so much just to make it to payday and get your ex-wife and Brian their alimony check. Luckily when I come out of the shadows and want to let off some steam there's an Ultrazone waiting for me. Nothing is more gratifying than wearing my urban camo and Doc Martens for a Tuesday morning berzerker through some punk kid's birthday party or school field trip. The best part is that there are no pussy refs to tell me to take it easy on the kids or "let them have a round" because I remind them when I come through the doors that I've served my time and I'm not a criminal anymore and I bought a season pass so shut the hell up.
Also there's a Cold Stone just beneath the place so I can get my B-Day Remix on for post-game nourishment.

haha, i came here last night with some friends. ( yes, we realize we're way too old for this shit) but we didn't care. A few shots before hand and you're good to go.
Laser tag is fun and all, but when you're just going for fun and you get your ASS handed to you on a silver platter by a 7 year old who spends every night of his life here, it's pretty sad and embarrassing.
What's even worse is when you try to shoot the little bastard back, and their parents get offended that you're shooting their kid and then they both gang up on you. Not cool.
Especially with the no running rule. Lameee.
this place would be alot more fun if they played some games or had more than one room to play in. Cuz it gets old quick.
Whatever, i'll be back one of these days and i'm gonna kick everyone's ass. So watch out.

haha, Ultrazone is hilarious. Its slightly expensive, nerdy, sweaty fun. :) I've been here a couple times, once was so long ago I really don't remember anything about it, the other time was I think for my little cousins birthday. I give this place 3 stars, but plus one for being the only legit laser tagging place around. The maze is pretty crazy, kinda boring at times. But then again, I'm not a little kid running around thinking I'm in a counter-strike game. And those little kids are fucking cheaters! Whatever, I score fairly good.
They have arcade games too, so I spent the rest of my money on those at the end of the night.

I found it odd the employees of this place felt it necessary to cross-check my name with those on the National Sex Offender Registry.  But hey, you get used to it.  Or at least I do.  I'm no pederast but I don't mind owning my tween cousins in laser tag every so often.  Not to brag but I can kick some juvenile ass and it goes down here at Ultrazone.

This might have been the worst laser tag ever - sad because it had potential. A group of us went for a friends birthday and were super excited to get in there and play. As soon as I walked into the main lobby I was almost knocked over by some little kids who looked like they got their hands on some coffee. And it just went downhill from there...

The course was way too small for the amount of people they squished in there (about 40) so you were pretty much walking into each other waiting to get lasered. That and there were the most annoying kids ever! Literally, one kid followed me around and just shot at me. We were there are 4 on a Sunday afternoon, so maybe later at night would have prevented some of this.

The game was really short too, like 15 minutes. Honestly, our 'briefing' took just as long as the actual game.

It was cheap though. If you get a group together of 12 or more it's only $7 each.  Go late, bring your friends, and try to make the best of it.

Short Version: Fun with lethal laser weapons.

Long Version: Like running around with a laser gun, shooting loved ones and strangers? Then this is the place for you. You get to run around and shoot each other, targeting your victim's sensor vest to score points. This venue is kept well and the staff is helpful, which is a nice touch when you're a nerd getting to live out your fantasy and finally get your chance to be a Galactic Ranger, 4th Level. Parking is available, though it won't be an issue since your mom will be dropping you off and picking you up later. But don't be embarrassed; go on, give it a try. It's fun!

Wow so I just went to a party here last weekend for the first time in 10 years, and it's still a lot of fun. If you've done lazer tag elsewhere, nothing too off-the wall, although I enjoyed the maze and crazy techno they played.  The prices were cheap (I'd recommend getting the $25 night pass since you'll probably want to do at least 3 games when you're there).  If you're over 15, I would only come here with people you already know, otherwise you're going to be playing with lots of younger kids.

I think this place was a decent place to go, but I can't quite decide how I feel about it. The venue was much smaller than I expected, and they didn't downsize the groups accordingly. Sticking 40 people into such a small space didn't make it as fun as it could've been.

Also, the clientle seemed to fall into two extremes: the young and immature (and kind of irritating) and the older, way-too-intense crowd. This made it a little harder to just go and have a good time with friends. However, overall, if you're just looking for a place to kill some time or randomly hang out with some friends, it's not too bad.

It's in a pretty chill neighborhood too, with lots of good food around, so there's things to do before and after. Not my favorite place to go, but not the worst either.

BY THE WAY, if you're going after 8 and you plan to play more than two games, buy the all-night pass to make it worth it. The games are pretty short (only about 15 minutes), so you'll probably want to play a couple rounds.

Been there 5 times now.  Never had any technical problems with the guns or vests.  It's staff seems well put together except for this girl who was pretty obnoxious and bossy and thought she was funny by yelling and pretending (?) to be jealous.  If I see or hear that one more time it will be reported and I'll get a name next time along with a video mpg.
There are all ages that go.  I've seen from as young as 4 or 5 to upwards of adult aged people.  It's not just for the guys, lots of girls and women are there too having loads of fun.  Each game is about 25 mins long including a brief synopsis in the beginning of how to play the game and what to do.  It's dimly lit but not pitch black when you go inside which makes it fun and not scary.  Basically you can go in their with your children without paying as long as you are NOT playing and going in there to see how your children are doing.
They've got arcade games outside and hold birthday parties.
Their new garden room smells like mildew - I'm not sure I'd go in that room for a birthday party - but check it out for yourself.
This is the only laser tag place closest to the westside that I've found. It's right over the hill in Sherman Oaks so you're not horribly going to "the Valley" Valley.

I went to Ultrazone for the first time last night and I loved it!  For $23 dollars you can play unlimited games from 8-12a.m.  It is a great time, if you and your friends are competitive and know how to work as a team.  Stick together and defend your base!  There's great feeling of power wearing the flashing vest and sporting the laser gun.  However, the vests are heavy and sweaty from previous users.  Plus, the smell after exiting the room is pretty stinky.  Make sure to wear extra deodorant to spare the crowds!

Lots of fun with a large group of friends. Good course, or whatever it's called. Unlike some places, lasers actually work when you tag someone. Good location because there's lots to eat in walking distance.

This is the place to go if you want to organize a Laser Tag party.  It was awesome.  Not sure how many people you need, but my friend organized her (yes, 29th) birthday party here, and I must say I was surprised at how much fun it is. They give you guys the Laser Tag room all to yourself and even give you soda and balloons.  Oh yeah, BALLOONS baby!!  If you feel like reliving your glory days, come here.  I wouldn't just randomly stop by though, unless you're like 10 years old.

I give them a 4 because the equipment just seems too old. And I give them a 4 because it was a fun experience that made me feel like a kid again. Me and the bf where on the same team but running around like little kids.
