Would not recommend this show. The waitstaff was great, the food was good and the show was terrible. The waitstaff was friendly and made themselves available if you needed anything. My party of 4 all had the chicken entree - which was pretty good tasting and good portion size. The show consisted of bad acting, yelling and cheesy jokes. The show might be appealing to young kids, but I would not recommend it for adults. My husband wanted to leave halfway through the show. I felt very uncomfortable, when we were asked to put money in an envelope to pay for the actors wages.

The mystery was a lot of fun and very entertaining. The food was well prepared and good, but choices were limited.

The actors put on an ok show, the food was fine, and the staff were kind. If this was a $30, Id give it much higher stars, even with the terrible and ugly hotel ballroom location (remember high school banquets? same place). However, for the money spent on the tickets one could get a much better dinner and much better show almost anywhere else in Seattle. And they had the audacity to ask for tips! Heck, for just a little more you could go to Teatre Zinzanni with an amazing show, gorgeous setting, and delicious food (and no tip requests). One good thing out of it: well talk about how bad this was in comparison to our expectations for years to come.

Would not recommend. Hotel staff was great, food was okay (nothing special and overpriced to be sure) and the show was embarrassingly bad.We saw several people leave after dinner and we almost did as well, but my wife and I started getting a morbid sense of enjoyment out of how terrible the whole thing was. The tickets are almost as much as the tickets for Teatro ZinZanni, an actual show.I actually wonder if this is a deliberate scam, or if the people involved are really that inexperienced and untalented. The performances are flat, unfunny and the pay $15 extra to be in the show bit means they talk to you 1-2 times during the show, attempting improv comedy.The mystery is given to you via laminated pages with clues and a mystery that although being easily solvable, is given away because the performer playing the killer starts walking around the room stealing butter knives near the climax. Its outrageous in its stupidity.Finally, the winner of guessing whodunit with the greatest amount of detail received a novelty coffee mug...something that everyone in attendance should receive, considering the $80 ticket. We couldnt stop laughing about how wretchedly bad it all was, until they spent 1-2 minutes talking about how they cant pay the performers if we dont tip them at the end of the show.With the high cost of the ticket, there is no way these people (some of whom only have 1-2 lines of dialogue) arent getting paid...and if they arent, is ALL of the money going toward the cost of the tiny hotel ballroom?Save yourself the trouble and go to a nice dinner and some other show. Youll get better food, and an actual show. This is a scam.

My group had an excellent time. And the food was better than expected. Yes, it seems a bit pricey, but its dinner and the show at the same time.
