What an interesting place and concept. Kudos to the entrepreneurs who conceived of the idea and made it happen. Had dinner with a date prior to going to live music. Food was great. Bailey the waitress was super. Very diverse menu. Nice find

We chose the 8-course dinner/theater combination to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. This was our first time at Sylver Spoon. The dinner was exceptional. Every course was absolutely delicious. Our server was wonderful. After dinner, we were sent to the theater room to see The Bucket List. This show was wretched. For this reason alone we will not be back nor will we recommend it to our friends.

Everything about this place was amazing!!!!! The food was exquisite and the experience was the perfect date night! Our favorite foods were the mushroom bisque and the braised short rib with mushroom risotto. This was truly the best meal I’ve ever eaten. Our waiter Paden was awesome and upon noticing our table was slightly wobbly fixed it immediately without us asking. The show was fantastic and kept us entertained and having fun as we waited for our food to settle after eating. Can’t recommend this place enough! Will definitely be going back!

Great food, great service and talented actors! I would definitely recommend Sylver Spoon Dinner Theater. It's a wonderful change from the usual out to dinner experience. Can't wait to go to the Murder Mystery offered on Sundays, I've been told it's fantastic! Thanks Sylver Spoon for offering something extra special to date night!

Went to Sylver Spoon for the ultimate date night tonight and had an amazing time. The food and music was great and I had the best time with my husband. Our waiter Collin was so kind, friendly and gave great recommendations!! He really made our experience special!! The restaurant was having an event and he even helped us make it through the crowd to the front door. Thank you for going above and beyond Collin!

We did the 8 course tasting menu and wine pairing and it was soooooo good!! So worth the money and time. Such a unique and fun experience to celebrate a birthday. We did the show after and it was so fun. Can’t stop thinking about the food. Our waitress was amazing as well, so kind and knowledgeable!

Disappointing Evening Out !Looking for a special place to go to for our infrequent date nights, we came across Sylver Spoon while searching online. Combing through the reviews, the idea of a quality dinner followed by a live play in a nice setting was very appealing and a majority of the reviews and pictures led us to believe that this was going to be an amazing fine dining experience worth the premium prices commanded.Sadly for us, our experience greatly missed the mark in all aspects and we cannot recommend going there.We won’t be returning.OBSERVATIONSFood experience :- [ ] Tried 6 different items (from Two 3-course meals) each of them lacking in taste and quality. Each hastily served and none of them looking like the beautiful plated pictures seen on the website. Completely underwhelming.- [ ] Fillet Mignon (with the added $15 menu up-charge) ours in particular was actually two small end piece (along with fat) nudged together on salt rock. Poor quality and chewy. Partner had to spit out the fatty bits as encountered.- [ ] Sugar Salmon was bland and cold and I resorted to dunking it in the watery pineapple sauce the rice was swimming in to try to give a palatable taste. Not a pleasant piece of fish.- [ ] Meatball (singular) was undercooked and slightly cold in the middle and definitely lacked a freshly made taste.- [ ] Deserts (slice of chocolate/peanut butter pie and cheesecake) neither had any garnishes or plating extras as shown on pictures. Bland and tasted store bought. Certainly nothing special and not of fine dining caliber. Have definitely had much better from the frozen section at HEB!Facility experience :- [ ] Far from romantic, the facility felt tired, uncared for, noisy, less than optimally clean, chaotic and well beyond its prime. It felt like an eclectic and rustic-casual setting trying to be made to look a little dressed up with incongruent abstract impressionistic art. No apparent decor identity to anchor itself around. In addition, the small chairs at our small table felt increasingly uncomfortable during our 2 hour sit.- [ ] Facility sorely needs reinvestment in upkeep, deep cleaning and updating. Noted a stale/stuffy/fusty air scent upon entry, dirty ceilings and visible dark dust accumulation on and around the HVAC vent louvers.Theater experience :- [ ] 2 seemingly excellent actors on stage and a seemingly entertaining screenplay.- [ ] Unfortunately, couldn’t hear most of it because of the disruptively loud wall-pounding sounds and rowdy-ruckus banter noises permeating from the adjoining Axe Throwing Haus going at it at full tilt throughout the entire live performance.- [ ] In addition, performance area was poorly heated (if at all?) necessitated wearing a jacket for the 1 hour performance as it was very cold.Confused as to why our experience was so divergent from a majority of the past posted reviews. We can only come up with that it could maybe be one (or some) of the following :1) Maybe we experienced an “off night” anomaly. Perhaps we had an under-qualified backup cooking staff having to fill in for the “A-team” ?2) Maybe it was that we refrained from indulging in alcohol which could dull our perceptions as done by a large number of the other diners all around us ?3) Perhaps Silver Spoon has somewhat recently implemented some changes which may have unintentionally sacrificed quality for boosting productivity and near-term profits?4) Perhaps our sub-par experience is a sign that complacency is starting to take hold in this establishment given its past history of consistently favorable reviews ?We respectfully hope for Sylver Spoon:- A swift and deliberate course correction away from the root causes that allowed their delivery of such a poor customer experience.…and...-A return back to reigniting what must have been a passion filled period of providing CONSISTENT high quality all around service worthy of all the rave reviews they’ve received.

Unfortunate experience was not positive as I had hopes due to the story of the venue.The entire evening started off on the wrong foot. We were given a table in their most awkward location that would have the staff and other patrons walk right past us at an already small table. We ordered their cocktails, Elvis and French 75. Elvis only tasted like PB Whiskey and the French 75 only had Champagne. Neither drink was good. We had the 8 course preset menu with theater tickets afterwards. The brussel sprouts was the best followed by their mushroom soup. The wonton was overcooked, the scallop and steak were were not seasoned and the carrots were bitter. Unfortunately I cannot recall the other items as it was underwhelming.The service was good and the atmosphere was cute.We did not stay for the dinner show as we were on our anniversary and given separate sitting options for their couches, which I declined. The other sitting option were hard chairs at another awkwardly placed table.I would not recommend this venue and was disappointed since the story of sisters are owners is so compelling.

Food and service good but manager Payton and owner Madison ruined the experience. We were planning on taking a group to attend dinner and show but NOT NOW. Those two ruined the experience. The manager and owner were awful at customer service!

Prepaid dinner and show for 2 but also changed more after meal, total bill twice as much, they are misleading, u think u prepaid for everything but no, I have seen similar posts, other tables were questioning bill also, staff was ok food ok but not for what we paid, we just felt taken advantage

My husband & I loved our experience at Sylver Spoon. Food was phenomenal, service was amazing, & the concept of the menu was so creative! Collin was an awesome server, & Hope the mother of the owner was so sweet as she checked in on each of the tables. We will be back with our friends & family so they can experience it too!

My boyfriend and I pre purchased the 8 course meal that included tickets for an after dinner theater performance. The restaurant was an hour away which we didn't mind. Once we arrived we were greeted by a large wear house that had been divided up into multiple businesses. It was a free flowing building with no fully enclosed walls separating any floor plan. This lead to a lot of noise from the axe throwing business that was located just below the restaurant. The main dining room was very cramped with an average of a foot of space between each table which added to the noise and caused some waiters to knock over chairs while passing through. The food its self was nothing special, definitely not worth the 95$ ticket price that they were charging for the experience. They encouraged 25% gratuity once you were charged and this included the amount pre paid and any drinks that you did not pre purchase. The cocktails that we ordered did not contain the traditional liquor that is expected, instead they opted to use wine which is something that I attribute to cheap restaurants. My boyfriend ordered a boozy milkshake, we expected it to be made with icecream but instead we got a mixture of milk and ice and some sort of flavored syrup, this made the drink very unpleasant. To get to the restrooms you had to walk through a small room filled with couches that was being used for a private dinner party that was equally cramped, the restrooms themselves were connected to a indoor patio that over looked the boating shop which was one of the endless surprises of the facility. staff, I wish I had better things to say. The service was not as professional as Iv experienced at true fine dining restaurants, they had a overwhelming cheery attitude towards the food and almost insisted that we love everything through the suggestive comments they made towards each dish. My final thought is that this restaurant is a typical quality of a small town but markets itself as a fine dining restaurant. :(

We love the fine dining experience the Sylver Spoon aims for & have never been disappointed. Great cocktails great full course menu! We have yet to go to the theater shows but have heard great things. Special shout out to Mary, her service & care makes the experience at Sylver Spoon that much more amazing.
