La Comedia Dinner Theatre

I've always loved La Comedia; We've been to so many shows, I lost count long ago!This was my first brunch show, however, and it was quite different than I'm used to.

The atmosphere was somewhat disrupted by people in attendance that are unfamiliar with theater etiquette, which was disappointing but not the staff's fault. The service was still fantastic. The server usually gets the food for my mom bcz she's paraplegic and (obviously) uses a wheelchair; someone saw this and made the server fo down and get their food, too, even though they could walk just fine. That's NEVER happened before. It was very sickening to me.
Moving on.
The food was good, and also different than evening shows due to the breakfast options. They do a great job with the buffet food, always.
I'm not sure if the salad was different bcz of the time of day, or bcz of new ownership, but the cantaloupe was replaced by mandarin oranges...not a good change imo. Seems catered to the same type of people who lack respect for etiquette, who chat away while the host is speaking and constantly open the exit door during the play. The applause was weak through the entire show, even though the cast was phenomenal (I laughed AND cried!).
Anyway. Changes.
So, there was no cracker basket with their famous cheese on the table, and again I don't know if that's due to the daytime show or different ownership. They DO still sell their housemade cheese and their chutney dressing, thank goodness!

I don't think I'll attend a brunch show again, but it's nothing to do with the staff or company. Thank you, La Comedia for bringing the dinner theater experience to the Dayton area!

This place was great from beginning to end. We'll organized. They did a phenomenal job seating and feeding 400 people . That was how many people attended the musical scrooge that we went to see. Everyone we came in contact with that worked there was extremely friendly. We sat at table H35 which was great for us little further back still we could see and hear everything with no problems. I seen reviews with people complaing of the sound system. We didn't experience any thing like that. We could hear all speaking and singing parts and they sounded great. The lighting was also done extremely well. As for the food it was delish. This is not a gourmet restaurant it's a dinner theater with a buffet that had a very good buffet. Yes they do call you up to eat in a order that keeps it organized. Again that was part of why we were impressed with the organization of seating and feeding 400 people. We were closer to the end to go for the first serving and there was still plenty of food. Didn't go for seconds. I piled up my plate the first time..lol In our opinion we are lucky to have a place like this so close to us. And are already planning are next visit to see murder on the orient express and the wedding singer after that. Congratulations to all the performers the show was very enjoyable and you all did a wonderful job. Also a quick shout out to our server sorry we didn't get her name but she did a fabulous job as well.

This place is absolutely great! Loved everything about it! The buffet is excellent and lots to choose from. If you want to sample everything, it won't fit in your plate. You can go back for seconds after everyone has been thru the line once.
The show was wonderful as well. Could hear all speaking parts but singing was a little loud. We were at a show on first day performance, so they may tweak that day by day. Will definitely go again!

I did the entire show package for 2025 year and the shows were great. Food was not the best.. scrooge the musical had the best food and what I was hoping for for the entire season of shows we went to.. They should take note of the good comfort food from scrooge and apply it to the other shows. There's been lots of previous shows were I had to eat before coming due to menu items not very good. Sadly I will not be purchasing a season of shows and maybe 1 or 2.

Attended Legally Blonde, as usual, food was phenomenal. BUT, play for our taste was not. The underlining meaning was exalting alternative lifestyles. I have no problem with others lifestyle chosen as long as it is not pressed on others, considering, I have friendships with both men and women choosing this lifestyle. I ŵill, compliment the performers for superb acting, some of the best. But the quality of of the sound system was sub par, which is fault of ownership. We have attended La Comedia performances many times over the years and this has been the first time we have been disappointed. Will continue to attend, but more research on subject matter of play.

It was an amazing experience. The food was ok, some of it could have been better. The service was ok but they seemed rushed. The actors were absolutely amazing, especially Kyle.
