Super fun! My husband and I went for our first wedding anniversary and we had a blast! It was very inclusive and lighthearted. The dinner was great and all of the serving staff and actors were very kind. I would love to go again and recommend it to anyone who wants to dust off their detective hats and have a fun time!

On a paper on table it said if you fill it out you get free swag... they told me they don't do that and laughed. I had already done a review. So!!! time to edit it!
The food wasn't terrible but wasn't great either! Not alot of flavor sorta just cafeteria food. The dessert was the best part ( a cheesecake with cool whip).
The actual show wasn't terrible but a lot of jokes don't land and end up being cringy, and sorta anti churches (not a shocker its in salt lake after all). And the actors weren't good or bad, their acting skills was just EHH.
I didn't play that much, but the way the actors acted I could tell who the murder was within 45 minutes.
The show was fine. Wouldn't come back. But glad I tried something new!
Fun for a huge group of people but wouldn't bring anyone under 18 to that environment.

The cast was enthusiastic & helpful. I didn't know what to expect, but you didn't feel lost for too long. It was fun to chat with the people at our table & work through things together.

The show was fine.. We didn't have enough time to mingle with all the individuals at all the tables (an important piece of the detective work). Throughout the show, some jokes were chuckle worthy but some jokes were just eye-rollers. They had audience participation which was great, but when it came to the who-done-it, the instructions were not clear, they didn't include 2 tables. We sat at a table with a bunch of loud, obnoxious people who ate one of our salads so my guest and I shared one, so it was a rough go. The food was good and the servers/caterers were great. I think if you're looking for something to do to get out of the house, it would be better than staying home. But overall, it wasn't what I was hoping for.

Very disappointed. Definitely not worth what we paid for. We’ve been to these murder mysteries before and they were professionally handled. This one was all over the place. There were several inappropriate comments (one about chlamydia). It started at 6, we were served salad and water (no drinks) around 6:10. Dinner was not served until after 7 and it was nothing to write home about - mediocre at best. This is the point we left. Save your money!

Was not what I was thinking could have been better

I'm scoring this higher than I think I should. I have been to many of these. These guys follow the same format as the ones I've attended in Las Vegas and San Diego. There were things missing as I compared them.

First. All the others do pictures with your significant other free of charge with fun back drop and props.

Second. Others decorate to help with the atmosphere.

Third. I prefer them bringing us drinks instead of having to frequent the bar.

Forth. They could probably use some mics instead of screaming. It was cringey at times.

Fifth. We are in Utah and I thought it was weird that all their prizes revolved around alcohol. Maybe consider your audience and be more inclusive.

Sixth. Because I had attended others my wife and I knew from the moment we walked in who the suspects were. Might want to disperse the cast members in a different way and time.

What i did like...

- I liked the online clues
- food was good but could have been more of it.
- acting was fun in my opinion. Others in my group had a hard time with it. Not sure what advice to give there.

I would probably go again if I knew improvements were made.
