The Dinner Detective is America's largest interactive true crime mystery comedy dinner show! Solve a hilarious and engaging mystery while you feast on a fantastic dinner. Just beware! The killer is hiding somewhere in the room, and you may find yourself as a Prime Suspect! Our show is very different from traditional true crime mystery dinner shows. We will hide non-costumed actors in the audience that are pretending to be part of the crowd. This results in a much more social and interactive evening than with other shows. Our shows are set during the present day and take place in real time. Over the course of the night, our costumed Detectives will uncover clues, interrogate audience members that may or may not be part of the show, and help everyone get closer to solving the mystery.

The acting was over the top cheesy. There wasn't a lot of decorations. It was a hotel banquet room and was bland. The people were nice and the servers were attentive but the food was gross. It started with only enough salad to cover the bottom of the plate. For the main course, there was an actual formed scoop of instant mashed potatoes, what looked like defrosted mixed vegetables, and an extremely flat, unseasoned chicken breast with a gross dark brown gravy. I didn't expect a 5 star meal but this was like horrible cafeteria food. My husband and I couldn't stomach the food and ended up leaving. Very disappointing night.
The experience was fantastic would come again
A great night out! It was one of the more fun interactive murder mystery dinners we have been to. It kept everyone engaged from the very start. The actors did an amazing job blending into the crowd, it made it feel like anyone in the room could be part of the show.
Highly recommended and would do it again.
Went here for a cute date night, first time attending a dinner detective and absolutely loved it. Would highly recommend.
This show was such an amazing experience! It was fun and engaging. The two cops were absolutely hilarious! The food was great and it was such a warm and welcoming environment. I loved the props and commentary. The room was perfect because everyone was able to see and engage with each other. The code names were so much fun. I will definitely be attending another one in the future.
This was a fantastic night out filled with entertainment, delicious food, and a mystery to solve! 10 out of 10 would recommend!!!
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..
This was such a fun experience. You must listen to details, and pay attention! I would come back again. The food was a 10/10, chicken was nice and juice, the rice was great as well. I normally don’t eat green beans but I ate them all today. Such as a great time!
Fun event for our staff retreat. Well done and entertaining!
Professional and Personable Staff!!!! Thank you for a GREAT experience!!!!!
I've been to high school plays that were better acted than this and honestly, this one also had no clear plot. The engagement activities and "clues" seemed silly and did not relate to solving the murder. I was bored and disengaged much of the way through. And the food - not good, a real banquet of rubber chicken. All in all, save your money and go to a true theater or improv troupe instead.
