If you’re planning to attend, don’t come expecting to be intellectually stimulated. While the clues do connect somewhat, this experience is more about having fun than playing a serious detective. If you try to overanalyze everything, you probably won’t enjoy yourself. The acting is funny, and everyone seems to be having a good time, so just go with the flow.
That said, I do have a bone to pick with the producers. At the end, the host claimed that the murderer was in the room. However, the person who turned out to be the murderer was actually not present at that moment—unless they were hiding under a table, which they weren’t. They left the room at some point but came back later. I won’t reveal who it was to avoid spoiling the experience for anyone planning to attend.
To clarify, the clues are intentionally illogical, and the big reveal feels more like a parody than a genuine detective story. Just go in expecting some laughs and lighthearted fun. Don’t take it too seriously!

Did not enjoy the experience at all. The dinner was not good at all. I did not like the murder mystery, I have been to much better murder mystery dinners. The way the mystery was delivered made no sense. The clues did not connect the dots to the killer. The person who actually was the killer got up and walked back and forth at the end of the show. That is how I knew that person/character was the killer and it was the killer. If it’s your first experience you may like it, if you have been to other mystery dinners save your money and time.

overall it was OK. decent food but small portions. we had 2 people at our table that ended up being actors which made it more exciting for us. The story and clues are a bit silly but that is part of the fun. In the end I would probably not go again but it was something my wife had never done and it was something new to do for a date night and an excuse to get dressed up a bit.
Vegetarian options: typically a pasta dish with some seasonal veggies

It was fun. Pay attention to every little detail of the show and write everything down. The meal was good, the actors funny, and the people who also attended were really into it which made it extra cool

Fantantic fun
Update: the responder below is lying about me emailing the show the day after we attended. We attended on June 18th and I emailed that addendum to the email on June 22nd about COVID. There was no concern by the company about that, and it's telling that they're lying on this public forum when I have email records.First off, everyone who went there caught COVID and I wrote the people to tell them but they did not get back to me. The show was very corny, not much of an interesting script. It did not make any sense. A lot of loud talking and screeching from actors. Food is really low quality.

Food was okay. The show was enjoyable as a first timer. The actors were great and the story was good.
It was a lot of fun. Great actors and good energy. Vegan meal was tasty.
This show was AMAZING!!! My mom and I went and it totally blew our expectations. The host was amazing, the detectives were hilarious and the actors involved were so good! The food was amazing and the show was interactive, so it felt like we were part of the entire experience. So much fun, couldn’t recommend enough!
My friends and I we’re really excited about this but I feel like they just sit you in a room for 3 hours, serve you mediocre dinner, while you watch them scream and say bad jokes. Clues and articles make no sense so you’ll waste your time trying to figure it out
Fun and different dining experience with mostly all strangers. Great whodunnit.
