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.

We had such a great time. We thoroughly enjoyed interacting with the other guests and incognito actors. The plot was silly, but the cast kept us laughing and involved. We didn't guess the murderer or plot twists, but it did make sense based on the clues and supporting information. We will definitely be back.

The food was mediocre at best. The murder mystery is still a mystery to me. 2 girls wearing badges and talking into a mic was it. I never knew what was going on. When they finally said who the killer was, we were like …… why?

The staff in person and on phone were so nice and helpful. The show was belly laugh excitement. I heard that you had a new cook.. he/she should go back to school.. the food was horrible, disgusting and cold. I talked to other guest and everyone agreed about the food. I’d see the show again but I’d eat before I go.
