The Dinner Detective True Crime Murder Mystery Dinner ShowReviews of thedinnerdetective.com

I liked the organization and flow of the evening. Adequate breaks were given. The food options were good and the service and location were fine. The interaction with the audience was good. The plot was a little too complex for most people to follow. The acting was so-so but got better as the evening progressed. What I took offense of was the last statement given to us (ie. "Get the F--- out of here") - that left a bad impression with everyone at our table. Not a good way to end the evening, even though it was meant as a joke, it was in bad taste.

What a fun event had a great time with friends. This would be a fun event to do with co-workers, friends etc. lots of interaction with the actors just fun.

Lead detective did a great job. The chosen people in the room played along well... It just drug on too long. Too much down time between acts.

A+ for effort and energy. Many of the actors show promise if they continue to develop. SOUND SYSTEM!! OMG! Severely detracts from the success of their production. Do they have a director or technical staff available? Two speakers @ the front, which may serve the couple front tables sufficiently, BUT the EQ is lacking highs (sibilance). Only midrange and a bit of lows. Plus they need to learn pacing and enunciation. Many lines totally lost due to this problem. The main-announcer @ start of the show. Slow down girl, and ENUNCIATE! Food was mostly good, the dessert fabulous! Wait staff had to be told repeatedly to do simple overlooked things like bring silverware or serve one or two which waited nearly 10 minutes while everyone else @ the table had been served.

There was no stage, just activity that mostly happened in the middle of the [crowded] room. The room was crowded with too many tables. I understand trying to maximize profit, but this went a little overboard. The appetizer that was in the list was never provided. No mention as to why it was not served either. Just a small salad, mediocre dinner, and chocolate cake with syrup that was just OK. Basically, the food was just marginal. Talked with my spouse after the show and the best we could describe the food was 'institutional'. So the ultimate question is...would I come again? Definitely not.

Overall, it was a good show and event..The only negative experience I honestly had is when secretively when i was trying to detect and ask one specifi person questions(Interrogating the killer and i didn't know it) ..However, the hosts or something must have told that person to act or be VERY ignorant and in other words mean..or just have some type of really wierd attitude..maybe to throw others off..or maybe that was just her personality..I don't know..but i didnt understand it..then when i found out she was the killer..i guess it all made sense..but i still went home shaking my head and wondering ...WHY?? did she have to be and act like that completely..oh well..like i said..overall it was still a good show...Thanks again..

Was lots of fun.

The show, actors and food was great. When I bought the tickets, I was under the impression that the table would sit 10. I was not aware, nor was it noted, that we would be "split up" and was required to sit at different tables. This was unacceptable!!
