- mikestravs0 contributionsYou can't beat the bang for your buckI'm not sure I can say enough good things about this. The Dinner was excellent. The murder mystery was hilarious. The cast were perfect hosts and even though I didn't solve the murders, I had a great time. For the cost you get 3 hours of entertainment and a 4 course dinner. You can't beat the bang for your buck.Written February 17, 2021

I enjoyed the show, it was funny & if you follow the clues you might actually figure it out. The only negative was the dinner. I guess I expected more from the Hilton the food was less than flavorful and even less on my plate. But the experience, the show was good

Well, this was a blast! Meeting new people, wonderful dinner and most important the SHOW! We went for our 30th Anniversary to experience something new. It delivered. The laughs, intrigue, guess work some team work for ideas, wondering if the suspect was at our table, was so much fun. We would highly recommend to anyone for a wonderful night of entertainment and much laughter.

The show was performed in a large ballroom and set up for 90 people. None of the characters wore microphones and moved around the room. Our table could not hear most of the dialogue. It was a huge disappointment to my entire group of 3 tables. I've been to many murder mystery shows and this by far was the worst. The plot made absolutely no sense. Don't waste your money.

Hello Carole! Thank you for your comments. The Dinner Detective is very different from a traditional staged murder mystery show, and we're sorry our show was not to your liking.
Based on the extensive pre-show correspondence from your large group regarding place cards, arriving early, exclusive seating, and other requirements, we gather that your group was expecting a private event just for you, instead of a regular public show. You even went so far as to directly contact our venue with your requirements, which complicated the process for our team.
To our knowledge, we did not receive any complaints from your group during the show on Friday 11/5 at the Hilton St. Louis Frontenac, which by all other accounts went very well and left our guests satisfied. Had we learned about issues during the show, we can and would have made every attempt to rectify the situation and ensure your satisfaction, but we were not told about your issues when we could do something about them.
After the show, we received an email from you demanding a refund, threatening negative reviews if we did not comply. As stated above, we made every attempt to accommodate your group's requests before the show within reason, and our team and the venue would have made every effort to satisfy you when you were with us. Instead, you chose not to tell anyone and threatened us with negative reviews after the event had ended.
Thanks again for joining us, and we hope you have a wonderful day!

The food was tasty. The show was fun and interactive with some twists, and lots of audience participation. We plan to do this again when the new script comes out!

Does that price include the food or pay separate bill?
