Four course meal was good but chicken, rice, and vegetables was about cold when arrived at table. Chefs appetizer was fried corndogs and they ran out at serving table. Couldve brought out another tray for amount of people attending. Also not enough rolls for amount people at our table. Salad was simple and food portions small for price u pay. Actually brought out good size piece carrot cake for dessert. Show experience not as good as 1st time some years back. Show cast just seemed to kinda wing it. Main detectives forgot to introduce themselves in beginning. I mean for sort of d oing the same show for some time, shouldve been more routine. Just an ok night for amount u had to pay.

The Headless Horseman was incredible atop his steed, so realistic! Well done. The escape room was perfect, the haunted trail was even better and best of all was the haunted house! (sorry to be so vague but I don't want to spoil ANY of the many surprises you are in for.) They put on a production of 3.5 hours of non-stop entertainment. It would have been even better if they had a person walking selling hot cider, and cocoa to your seat like they do at the baseball games. It was chilli I would have paid for a pair of Hot Hands as well. Thanks for a memorable time.

In the past too bland no seasoning. The roast beef is always dry i don't even ask for it anymore, however the ham is usually very good. this last trip the fish was down on taste and the sweet potato dish had so much topping it was too sugary. In general the shows are excellant (except the tribute to John Denver last year and that should not come back) This year has been really great shows. we signed up for the 2027 season. I understand not putting salt of food for dietary reasons but it does need a step up of seasoning. The child actors are always fun, they are very talented. getting out of the parking lot not a big problem. everyone is usually patient and respectful letting each other in and out. Overal we enjoy the night out. Get those yeast rolls back on track LOL. this last time they were hard. The staff is always great. We tip based on the meal price. we always tip well as servers have a hard job and are amazing to remember verything they do! I notice the salad is getting smaller and smaller and less dressing. it must sit out an hour before we arrive as now it is not cold and crisp. that really brings the flavor down. I always have to ask for extra dressing and i no longer love the warm salad. I understand the timing but it would be nice to set the salads out so they are not so warm. I think attention to a few details would increase business for sure. And yes the seats are awful the atmsophere is clean bathrooms a plenty . The gift shop seems like they no longer stock it. I used to love to go in take a look and buy something. Now i don't visit the shop much. not much inventory.

It was quite the engaging night out! I hadn't been to La Comedia Dinner Theatre in years, so I was…read moreexcited to finally use the tickets I gave as a Christmas gift--especially for Jesus Christ Superstar. I do love me some Andrew Lloyd Webber, after all. First, the good: the service was excellent. Our waitress and the bus staff were attentive, hardworking, and made sure we were well taken care of all night. Truly appreciated. And the highlight of the evening--the show itself--did not disappoint. The cast was fantastic, full of energy and talent, and I thoroughly enjoyed the performance. Now...the not-so-good (because every great review needs a plot twist). The food didn't quite match the level of the show. The veggies were more "mushy medley" than fresh, and the roast beef had clearly committed to being well-done...very well-done. The fried chicken had a surprising kick--unexpected, but not terrible. Drinks leaned more toward "sparkling sugar water" than cocktail, if you know what I mean. That said, the white fish and tartar sauce were solid, and the sweet potato soufflé and coffee with strawberry shortcake dessert were definite highlights. One point of confusion: gratuity. It was clearly stated that it wasn't included (message received!), but since I'd purchased tickets months ago and only paid for drinks that night, I wasn't quite sure what the tipping expectations were for our wonderful server and bus staff. Also worth noting: the seating. After nearly four hours, the chairs and I were no longer on speaking terms. I even tried switching seats--same result. While the theater has a nice, elegant feel, it does come across as a bit dated and could benefit from a refresh. The same goes for their marketing--it's easy to forget about them, and the website could use some streamlining. All in all, it was a fun night with a great show and wonderful service. Would I go back? Maybe...after my back recovers and if the menu gets a little encore-worthy upgrade.

The food was pretty good, but would have been better if it had been hot, or even warm. I got the vegetarian eggplant parmesan and it was decent. The salad was good and the dessert was the best part. Chocolate peanut butter pie and a cookie. I also liked that they had hot tea in addition to coffee. I would definitely recommend checking it out! Fun for a date night or a group.

This is one of the best local theatres in the Columbus area. My son and I started coming here…read moreregularly several years ago after we were blown away by their production of The Addams Family Musical. Prior to the performance, I had asked several locals about the theatre and was simply told that it was small, hence the name. Thank you, Captain Obvious. So, with not much to go on, my expectations were pretty low. Even so, the ticketing system for this theatre is ridiculously antiquated. To reserve a seat, you have to leave a message on their answering machine. Make sure you have lots of time on your hands when doing so because you will have to sit through a greeting that goes on forever with no way to bypass it. If there is a way, please let me know how. The message will ask you to leave your information and that your call will ONLY be returned if there is a problem with your reservation. I am the type of person who wants confirmation of my reservation. Because this theatre is a good 45 minute drive from my house, I want to feel confident that my reservation is in good order. Not surprisingly, since coming here my reservations have been botched twice. Once, I left my message several days in advance, but It was never received. Last week, my message was received, but my seats were given away to someone else who also (supposedly) had my (very uncommon) last name. Highly unlikely, in my opinion. In both instances, we were accommodated with seats, but I would have been upset had we been turned away. Aside from that hassle, we adore this theatre. Yes it is small and seats less than 100, BUT the productions are spectacular! I was amazed at how much they could do on such a small stage. Choreographed dance numbers, intricate sets, top notch voices and reasonable ticket/concession prices make this historic theatre an absolute treasure in Grove City. I have not seen a bad production yet and I highly recommend the musicals. Tons and tons of talent and not a bad seat in the house!
