The Salty Dinner Theater is a traveling troupe of performers. They put on shows in restaurants or…read moreother special events-often murder mystery or otherwise interactive with the audience. The shows are comedic and musical, with occasional moments of improvisation. So far, I've attended two of their performances: one was The Great Gatsby that was held in a parking lot. All the attendees circled their vehicles around a stage and watched from the Covid-safe spaces in their cars. I appreciated the creativity of the performers and producers of the show to be able to provide the entertainment while not being able to be " in person." The second show was last night and was at a restaurant. We were in a private room with every table filled. It was wonderful to see smiling faces that were not peaking out from behind masks. The show was entertaining-with tons of audience participation. If you don't want to be called out or interact with the performers, this might not be the scene for you. At the end of the murder mystery, the audience votes for who they think the murderer was-AND the appropriate punishment. I loved seeing the reactions of the cast members when they took their punishment-especially when one of them had to guzzle ketchup. It was hilarious! (I also felt a little bad for him, he looked like he was going to be sick.)

First and foremost, the lovely woman who checked us in was so kind and considerate at letting us move seats so my pretty large party could stay together. I thought it would be a bigger deal but she didn't even blink an eye! Once we were ushered in to the most gorgeous ballroom we were greeted with our first course introduced by Chef Anna. Chef Anna might be the actual star of the show. The food blew me and my party away and I thought I was just coming here for the magic and ambiance. We had the five courses with the fastest refills I have ever seen and the whole night kept a great pace. After dessert was one the other star came out... Larry Wilson. He was nominated for an Emmy but I now argue he was robbed and should have won. I never laughed so hard and felt so engaged in a magic show. He is a PERFORMER and kept everyone engaged and interacting. I could go on and on but I hope I sold you. I will be coming back for all my birthday needs and more.

You get a lot of freedom to play whatever games you want and move at your own pace. I think the original quickshot is the most fun. Make sure to be patient when loading the wax pellets as you want to reduce the chance of a misfire. Additionally, you cock the hammer to the first "click" in order to rotate the cylinder on the pistol.

For some reason we were admonished for using a cell phone as a flashlight in a dark space.

We selected Christmas-inspired games to enhance the festive atmosphere, which added an extra level of fun and engagement for our guests. The event hosts were professional, enthusiastic, and a pleasure to work with throughout the experience. The party package included unlimited drinks during gameplay, which was appreciated, and the option to add catering was a convenient feature--which I did end up adding. The only area for improvement that I would recommend is greater attention to detail regarding their add-ons. I had added a mini trophy and ribbon as part of our party package; however, these items were not provided until after the event had concluded and many guests had already departed. This was disappointing, as the add-on was intended to be part of the celebration itself. Overall, though, the event was a success, and we'll definitely be back for more:)

We had so much fun that we decided to stay for a second game. We did both Classic and Prime Time and honestly can't decide which one we liked more. Both were so fun and really felt like you were on a game show. This was easily the most fun we've had together in a long time. What really stood out was how customized the whole experience felt. It wasn't just running through a script. Colby and Justice made it feel personal and special, which took it to another level. If you're looking for something fun and different to do in Salt Lake City, this is it. We can't wait to come back next time we're in town.

The experience starts the moment you enter and doesn't end until you are walking back up the steps. The story, attention to detail, and special effects are absolutely incredible. While the hour passes by quickly, it is well worth the cost and will leave you wanting to come back. Himitsu Station is not a one and done, there are more puzzles to solve and more goodies to find. Make sure to arrive a little early as there is more to enjoy beforehand. I'm beyond thrilled SLC now has an experience that rivals Meow Wolf and the like.

I have done 100+ escape rooms and while on a business trip, I wanted to take my team of 8 out for a…read moreteam building event. I decided to book Under Pressure for my team at 9:30pm on 07/11. The only great thing about the place was the lobby and the customer service from the game master. The lobby is well maintained and it made me excited for the room. However, the room had multiple issues. The largest issue was that the AC did not work at all. This ruined the experience because we had to have the main entry door open the entire time so that way some fresh air would come in. Even with this solution, one of us were completely disengaged due to the heat, and everyone else was highly uncomfortable. Not having AC in the summer when it is 106 degrees outside is just no acceptable. Beyond the AC issues, the escape room itself was middle of the road at best. There was no flow and the puzzles were incoherent. One of the locks was left unlocked so we did not solve one of the puzzles. The room was overall cheaply made. For example, they use wall paper on a standard door to make it look like a submarine door, whereas other escape room company's would design a door that looks and feels like a submarine door. There were also 2 other cheap locks on one cabinet that one person easily guessed the combination to. Overall, I would not bring my team back to this escape room company.
