Went on Valentine’s Day- the whole experience was unique and delightful! The actors were wonderful, all of the courses of the meal were tasty, and the show was funny. I love that the audience was able to able engage in the show as well through audience parts! It was a great thing to do for a special event!

My girlfriend and I gave Agathas a try on a recommendation for Valentines day, and we were FAR from disappointed!Agathas is a murder-mystery dinner experience that offers both great food and entertainment at the same time! They offer more food than you could eat in one evening, with a wonderfully efficient staff and a well-stocked bar (Fun drinks are extra, but that should be expected).The entertainment staff are super fun, and their shows offer a lot of audience participation making no two shows thee same. Everybody in the venue had a fun time, and the staffs ability to improvise based on what was happening was a spectacle!Agathas has been around for a long time, and offers a super unique dining experience. It is certainly worth a try, for the curious!

Agathas was great! I had a great experience there. I went there to celebrate my B-day. The entire staff was great & accommodating from the beginning to end. The food & drinks were great too. I ordered the beef entree & the wait staff made sure to get my temp of the steak correct, they wanted to make sure it was right to my liking. The actors were phenomenal! Who knew I could act a little bit myself, lol. If you havent been, you should go!

My husband and I went to Agathas with some friends for a fun night out. We were not disappointed. The five course meal was delicious, the show was hilarious, and the service was too notch. If you are looking for a fun night out on the town, look into Agathas.

What a blast...We saw the spoof of the Bachelor...how awesome was the theme. A 5 course meal and get to watch / participate in a dinner mystery? The entree choices were great, I had the Tuna which was cooked the way I asked. My wife is allergic to dairy and the kitchen and waiters made sure she had none!We will be back.

Great food & such a fun show! Loved how special they made my daughter feel since we were there to celebrate her 21st birthday. The optional add-on birthday cake was awesome too. Definitely planning to go back soon!

Any place being rated a 5 should EXCEED all expectations. Therefore, a 4 star review is great. There is a little room for improvement but very little. This is a great place to do birthday parties or anniversary dinner. The show was entertaining and fun. The food was great overall. The bar was the big disappointment. Only 2 bartenders slowly working and a line of 100 waiting. Twice I was turned away after standing in line. The show is on a schedule and I get that. Alcohol sales are a huge part of your revenue stream. If you are turning customers away, You are losing money. a simple cashier and a bar back helper Would increase the speed of the bartenders and satisfy more people. I did make it to the bar 1 time during the show. I must have looked like a raging alcoholic. I purchased 2 drinks for myself and 2 for my wife, to ensure that I wouldnt have to return. Other than that, it was a great place to go.

Awesome awesome awesome....... we had so much fun! The food was great, the staff was excellent and the show was so much fun. The only hang up we has was we spent about 45 min chatting after in parking deck and when we got ready to leave after paying for parking at the walk up kiosk we were charged for parking again.

I went with a small group. It was fun and I liked how they included everyone in attendance, even if it was a small role. What surprised me the most was that the food was excellent and they managed to serve such a large group at once without sacrificing the food quality. I expected this to be a mediocre experience but I think it was well worth the price and I would love to go again.

The actors were great. However the food was salty and not very good. Also, it was just too long. The drinks were fun though.I’m glad I went once, but won’t go again.

Review №12

This place is a lot of fun and something different. The food was delish and staff very friendly. They encourage everyone to participate in the show with small to large roles. You recieve one complimentary drink with dinner and can purchase additional drinks at the bar between acts. I have nothing bad to say. Myself and the group I was with enjoyed ourselves.

The show was AMAZING! Excellent actors and lots of fun crowd participation! Food was a little underwhelming, but its served en mass, so what can you expect? Aside from that it was really good. Definitely worth a visit

Brilliant and hilarious!! It’s a 5 star experience from start to finish and I can’t wait to go back and see another show. The actors are super talented and exceptionally good at engaging with the audience. The service was exceptional and I appreciate the ease with which the staff was able to accommodate my diet restrictions. There’s an attached parking deck and I was happily surprised when it was only $7. Highly recommend going for a special occasion like a birthday or anniversary but it’s also a great date night or group outing. Go see a show! #ATasteOfMystery

First time going so had no idea what to expect AND let me tell you, the experience was amazing!

The show was hilarious and amazingly hilarious!!! Go for the show, not the food. Pretty sure its mass produced and frozen.The tuna was great, cooked perfectly, the filet was mediocre, cooked to temp med rare but not seasoned well. The veggies were good and pasta - eh.Dessert was eh too looks very prefrozen. Coffee good. Wine selection was okay. BUT overall great time! Will come again.

Always fun. We went for our anniversary this year and had a blast. The show is really funny but not really a murder mystery. There is a lot of audience participation which makes the show that much better. I enjoyed the food but its nothing to brag about. The people are wonderful though

Loved it! Absolutely awesome. Have never had so much fun at a Mystery Murder Dinner Theater. Love the way they incorpareted the audience. The Ice T character could give Ice T himself a run for his money. Well worth the drive up from Warner Robins.

We went there for our anniversary and had a great time. The show was funny and the staff was very nice. Great actors as well. We would come back for a different show. We obviously didn’t come here for the food. The appetizers were the best, main course was 3/5. Bland.

I went here and had a great time. For the price, you get a great show, and some surprisingly good food. I especially like their salmon option, but Im sure the others are great too. Its dinner and entertainment, so its great for a night out. The servers are very nice and get you your food right on time. The show I went to see was like the murder on the orient express. It was a great show, with some humor mixed in. I will definitely be going back.

Went to Agatha’s for a B’day and graduation celebration this afternoon. What a treat! First time there, great show, awesome actor/actress- performance well done!!! It was a lot of fun to play a part in the mystery play too. The food was so delicious. I give them 5 stars plus. Thanks for the experience.

We visited with our family during our reunion. We loved the show and the audience interaction. The food was very good as well. I had the steak, which was perfectly prepared. This is a great place for a group outing.

Great fun for the entire family. We go every year just after Christmas with approximately 16 people in our group. This was my 4th show, and they have all been hilarious. The characters are great and very entertaining. Food is excellent as well and the wait/bar staff is as well. Phelipe has waited our table the last two years and does a phenomenal job and keeps us laughing as well. Defiantly request him when you book!

Went here for my surprise birthday dinner. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Food was good. Customer service great. Drinks a bit pricey, such as $12 for a shot of crown. Mystery was cool, but would have liked for the skit to be a bit scarier and hard to solve. Would go again though with my family.

Review №57

All in all a good group activity. That said, once was enough for me. It is a bit expensive. Food was good. However since youre essentially on a timer, you have to watch the socializing. Performance was enjoyable though hard to hear/understand/follow at times. Luckily its a comedy so it doesnt really matter. We had a lot of laughs. Bottom line: give it a try.

Review №58

We found the show very entertaining. There were two professional actors, and then everyone in the audience played a role - whether it was singing a song with a bunch of other people or reading a speech when prompted by a cue. (It seemed like people who were celebrating birthdays got the bigger roles.) We attended on a Saturday in early March, and there was quite a lively crowd. I look forward to their next production!

SO MUCH FUN. Full room and there was so much laughter! It was a well written funny script with great acting & fun audience interaction. Food was pretty good. Loved the appetizers! Its a great time and so worth it. I loved the genie songs! One of the bartenders went by the recipes and the other lady kind of did her own thing lol But SO FUN! Well definitely go again if were back in Atlanta!

I was a little sceptical about the whole experience at first, but then the dinner became very interesting as time went on. The food was amazing, our waitress was fantastic, & then entertainment was very enjoyable. You also participate with the actors. Trust me, its very humerus.

This event was fantastic. Not something I would have chosen for myself but Im really happy that I attended. The show is all inclusive meaning you will participate and you will be a member of the show. Very well put together. Great job!

Review №74

The good news is that this place is exactly what you think it is. You get a 5 course meal and a comedy mystery. Wine is included, dessert is included, and if youd like something extra, you can order on the side.The actors have all trained with Laughing Matters so you know theyre funny. The scripts are well crafted and an audience member is always the surprise killer! No one has to participate, but youre welcome to be part of the show if you follow the directions. Its a great event for those 12 and above.While they can get the parking charge, I recommend taking MARTA, then you can have two glasses of wine!

Review №75

The show was entertaining, its worth a visit. The food wasnt what I expected for the price. The tuna was over cooked, but the chicken was great so I would avoid tuna and steak both depend on a consistent delivery for quality.We took an eight year old and she enjoyed the show. It is family friendly (depending on the show I would guess). We would probably do another show in the future but I wouldnt tell people new to Atlanta to make this a must see.

The actor/ actress here are extremely proffessional. They make each and every guest feel welcome. The play itself was a blast it was hilarious. The plays change every few months to keep things interesting and to keep people coming back. The shows always focus on murder mystery and comedy. The food is pretty good too. The appetizers are my favorite because you have a wide variety of foods to choose from. I highly recommend coming here!

Review №82

Our first visit (February) was totally excellent. Today was disappointing. One of the actors consistently spoke too rapidly and words were not well enunciated. We probably missed half of what he said. Therefore, it just wasnt quite as funny and wasnt as much fun. Also, it was supposed to be a birthday treat for my elderly mom. She had even more trouble hearing what was said and hardly laughed at all. The food was great. Service was good. However, I can no longer give the rave reviews I gave upon our first visit.

Went for a birthday in July. It was one of the most fun birthday activities I have experienced!!! It is an absolute treat. As a vegetarian, they have an option for you but it is definitely more limited than for the omnivores. Still, the fun of the experience makes it well worth it. Hope I can return in the future!

The show was excellent, the actors were wonderful, the drinks were great and the appetizers...ooo man! The only part of my experience I didnt like was the main course I choose which was the pork.

We had a great time at Agatha Christie’s restaurant and loved the performance of Murder on the Dancefloor! What a great group of people and very talented! We had a blast! From the moment we walked in the door we were treated nicely from all of the staff and given the appropriate information for the performance! I would definitely plan to go back the next time I’m in the area! The five-course meal and drinks were all very good as well, but the performers were excellent and hilarious!

Review №87

There are actor performances, audience participation, and a meal.The actor performances were great and extremely entertaining. I think was a little disappointed that we only had 2 actors for the entire show. This is critical when youre trying to be heard across a large room. So a lot of their dialogue couldnt really be heard, and made for a lot of dead moments where the audience had no idea what was going on. The 2 actors had to play numerous characters, but i guess they did the best they could under the circumstances.I surprised my husband for his birthday and he was chosen to perform a role. The audience participation aspect was awesome. My husband doesnt rap and had to pull a LL Cool J rap style out on the spot. He had a great time and there were numerous members of the audience who also had roles to play. I guess thats where the extra actors come from.The only part that was a little bit of a let down for both of us was the meal. I saw reviews that gave great compliments to the meal, so I was looking forward to it. The event begins with an appetizer buffet, which was tasty and just ok. The main meal, on the other hand, not so much. Everyone had potatoes and a mix of zucchini and squash for the sides. It really seemed to us like this meal was not made from scratch. My veggies had a weird taste, my salmon was overcooked, and they couldnt get the potatoes right. After taking a few bites, I left most of my food on the plate. For dessert, everyone received the same slice of sheet cake and birthday people got a special candle on theirs.Bottom line, for my hubbys birthday, I wouldve preferred to take him to a nice restaurant for the meal portion.Overall, we had a great time and would certainly recommend the experience to others. Three stars because Im not convinced that the experience (actors, audience participation, and food) was worth the money that I paid.

I took my partner here for her birthday to change things up. The show was hilarious and we really enjoyed it. The food was ok. It was nothing to write home about, but the show made up for that. I do wish that the show would have been more of a mystery of some sort, instead of a Mission Impossible/Fort Nite show, but it was still funny and she really liked, so I guess thats what counts.

I went there to celebrate my birthday and I must say it was a great decision! The actors and actresses are great and are always in character even when helping out participants! Another thing is that they have you playing characters as well! Everyone is involved in some way! The food was good. Look over their menu on the website before you go because the menu explanation goes by fast! They also dont have any physical menus. Overall it was a great experience and I will be going back to another show!

Review №99

So much fun! Very engaging. Actors comedic style was just the perfect amount of tongue-in-cheek without crossing the line into cheesy. Definitely an environment that fosters immediate camaraderie Pomona the guests at each table. Easily the best fun for the entire family. There were grandchildren cracking up at their grandparents as they fearlessly and braced the role they were assigned. My son is a 12 year old kid who is quickly becoming too cool for anything I force him to do. However, he really enjoyed this and had a blast with it. The food is also surprisingly good. Unfortunately, our server was the only server who visibly appeared to be in a state of constant panic throughout the entire experience. We were even taken aback slightly by his lack of effort to keep his frustration from playing out in front of us as there were several times that he verbally snapped at the food runner for, what seemed to be, something that didnt seem commensurate with the reaction it elicited.Other than that unfortunate soap opera, it was a great experience and we will be back. Manny was especially wonderful...and personally made sure my son & I were taken care of.
