The Dinner Detective True Crime Murder Mystery Dinner Show - Franklin, TN Avis 12

You wanna have good wholesome fun? Do this! We made friends, we never stopped laughing, and great food to boot.

The bar was excellent prior to entering the event then followed with excellent food and amazing entertainment!

Many facets need improvement:
1- Too much responsibility is placed on the guests to both sleuth AND mingle and not enough time to eat the courses. There is especially no time to go from the bar or restroom and arrive back in the conference room without missing something. A cash bar should be in the room where the dinner and acting takes place.
2- The wait staff did not speak English well. Plus, we had to ask for more dressing and bread and refills. There was not enough of the former to go around at a ten-person table, and they never came around unless they were waved down.
3- There should be more physical clues in the room and more scenes acted out. Insisting that each guest rely on a shared QR code in order to mine clues on their phones is time consuming - and the food is getting cold. Moreover, everyone should be given a clipboard since there is no room on the table to place or write on the single piece of paper that is the worksheet.
4- The code names are pointless and the actors think they are being creative by putting people on the spot to come up with a backstory for their code names when they are not employed actors; they are paying customers expecting to be entertained.
5- The basis of the crime is not explored at all (which revolves around the suspicious and untimely death of an actress) but we are supposed to forget about that and solve the most recent ancillary murder, which seems to ignore the overarching motive.
6 - In the end, one patron is awarded the prize for getting closer than anyone else to solving the (ancillary) murder. But the rest of the participants are not made aware of why that person won, what they uncovered, and what the rest of us may have missed. Thus, it is wholly anticlimactic.
The food, however, was very good. And it ought to be for 80 bucks a pop.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

It was an amazing experience, and I'm not only saying this because I'm friends with the actors.

It was interactive and fun. I loved this

Was a little leery going into it but it was actually a great time highly recommend

Great preformance and service. Wonderful personalities!!! So much fun!!!

The entertainment was great. Unfortunately, the salmon that was served to us gave both of us food poisoning. We both thought it smelled fishy before we ate it. But it tasted fine with the sauce covering it. However, the next day my wife spent two days in bed with nausea and vomiting. We don't drink alcohol and had been fine before we went there. Tried to call the number on the email to report this but could only get recordings. Had this happened to someone that was immunocompromised it could have been a for real detective show. Didn't want to post this but no other way to let them know about the food that is being served there.

The actors and the Great people that surround me.
