I took my wife here for her birthday. We showed up about 7:50pm for a 8pm show. The appetizers were 90% gone. We were sure they were going to be refilled but never were. The hot appetizers are served in cold dishes so they were cold when we ate them. Nothing like cold fried mushrooms, chips and salsa and a meat and cheese tray with no crackers for an appetizer ""buffet.""\r

We bought a bottle of wine for $36, which ended up being the highlight of the night. The dinner theaters I have been to before have many actors and I kept expecting for there to be more than just 2 people performing. The room was a little awkward for the show. The room was only half filled and the crowd was very diverse, from very young to very old. We dressed pretty nice but were sitting next to people in jeans and t-shirts. \r

I had a fly in my water when we sat down. After we finished nibbling on our meats and cheeses we were served canned vegetable soup. The salad was equally non-impressive. For dinner we had the beef tenderloin and grouper. The grouper was ok but the tenderloin was tasteless. The couple across from us said the sauce on the salmon was too sweet. The potatoes and veggies that came with were extremely blah. The dessert was not the custard but a hard cake with strawberries. They serve you the dessert after the show is done so the servers are cleaning the tables as you eat which makes you feel rushed. I bussed tables for 7 years and you never start cleaning up until everyone is out of the room. What can you expect from servers when the tip is included in the price?\r

As far as the show, the 2 actors were good, but I was expecting a show and a meal for $120. For that money, we could have went to a very nice restaurant and had a great time. I would have paid $40 tops for this. Even if they included a bottle of wine in the price, it still wouldn't be worth it. I spent $160 on a busted night. Do you know the meal you can get for $160 in Atlanta? The show does no where near make up for the remaining cost. \r

The other patrons seemed to be having a great time so maybe it was just us. My advice, go if someone else is treating or it's a company event. At least we'll always have the memory of our terrible night to laugh about for all time.
Pros: Still trying to fine one
Cons: Food was terrible
