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.

I recently visited La Comedia in Springboro with a friend. As always, the performance itself was…read moreenjoyable, but be prepared for a fairly long evening--it is a full dinner theater experience. The meal begins with a fresh salad topped with a nice mango chutney dressing, which was definitely a highlight. Guests are then invited to the buffet in sections, and I must say our waiter was exceptionally kind, attentive, and provided wonderful service throughout the night. Unfortunately, the food itself was quite underwhelming. Having visited about 12 years ago, I was surprised to see that the menu has not changed and feels very outdated. The so-called signature sweet potato dish--with sugar and candied pecans--was unappetizing, and overall the food tasted inexpensive and poorly prepared. That said, the atmosphere remains pleasant, the theater is clean, and the staff is friendly. I truly enjoy the theater experience at La Comedia, but a refreshed, more modern menu would make the evening so much better.
