The age average is probably 70ish. I've been here now twice as both occasions were gifted for my birthday. I still enjoyed my time each time even though we were probably the youngest as someone got my husband and I tickets here for my birthday the past two years. The music was fantastic and we saw the variety show and the Grand Finale show and I enjoyed seeing multiple genres of music. The lead singers and musicians were phenomenal, and I absolutely loved the costume changes. The outfit changes really held my attention and was a great part of the show. The food, however, was just okay. I wouldn't come here for the food alone, but rather for the overall experience and to do something different. The meal included vegetables, potatoes, mashed potatoes, spinach cheese ravioli, chicken Parmesan, pulled pork dish, and a pineapple fish dish. This was the same food both times we went, so I'm not sure if they ever change it, I wish they did for a change. The pulled pork and cheese ravioli were good, but I wasn't a fan of the other dishes. The chicken Parmesan was probably the worst I've had as it wasn't at all what I expected from a traditional chicken parm. Dessert is a slice of chocolate cake that's already at your table when you arrive. I did think it was a nice touch that they pass out foil before the show ends so you can take it home and not waste it. The recommended tip listed on a sign at the table is $5 per person, so in addition to your ticket price, expect to pay at least that much extra. Drinks are also not included, so that's another added cost. Overall, this is a great experience, more so for 50+ and would make a fun gift, especially for a couple looking to do something different. I wish they had a family friendly show where it encouraged families with kids as I could see my kids who love music at 2 and 4 enjoying the show and dancing! I sat about in the middle of the theater and had a good view of everything. I really think most seats will be just fine! read more

A full evening of dinner and a show for around $50. It's a great deal! Went to see the Elvis and Friends show with an awesome group of people. You start with the buffet. There's a variety of food and it was all delicious. There's a few different proteins, this night was swiss cheese chicken, pulled pork, and beef stroganoff. The was roasted red potatoes and garlic mashed potatoes with gravy. And sides that included suateed vegetables and cheese raviolis , dinner rolls and butter. There was also a salad bar, but after a little bit of everything previously mentioned I was way too full. Had to save room for the chocolate cake. Then came the show. I never saw Elvis when he was alive, so I was excited to see this show. The guy does a great Elvis impersonation, taking you from the 60s Elvis, advancing to the Vegas Elvis era. And, since "and Friends", other folks in the crew did tributes to act like Bobby Darrin, Nancy Sinatra, Tony Orlando, Barbera Streisand, Melissa Manchester, etc. All people Elvis worked with to some level in his lifetime. Interspersed, was information about Elvis, the things he did for people, and discussions of the songs he sang. It was informative and very entertaining. The whole crew were incredibly talented at both singing and playing their instruments. The Silver Star also offers other variety shows, like a Country Music one, classic radio music one and a couple others. I had never been to a dinner theater before and really enjoyed it. If you're looking for something to do for a full evening or maybe have people visiting and looking for something to do, you should totally go! read more

Good food ! In fact sooo delicious! Entertainment was top notch !!! I was glued to the performance the entertainers were so awesome & so talented! I've gone the last three years to the Christmas Performance.... I'm suggesting everyone go see the Christmas Show & enjoy DINNER & the SHOW read more

Went to the Finale show and enjoyed it very much. The buffet food was tasty and plentiful. The serving line moved quickly and the food was fresh. The servers and staff were friendly and efficient. The Silver Star band put on a professional show with super fun music and upbeat dancing. The female singer was the best I've heard anywhere - and I've seen many Broadway shows. Well worth the price - will go again! read more

Here is another Dinner Theater East Valley favorite. Located in a Strip Mall in Mesa, the Silver Star has a similar performance program like on in Apache Junction but a larger verity of shows and show times. Seating is more likened to the terraced seating tables if the Las Vegas Rat Pack days. I prefer this seating vs the community picnic table dinning room arrangement. All the shows are fun, nostalgic, ocassional audience participation and enjoyed with dinner. Pricing is all inclusive less Adult beverages served at the bar. Maybe it's me but I feel all age groups would enjoy these live performances. Parking is shared with other businesses in the Strip Mall. Depending on party size $$$/$$$$ Check them out! read more

Amazing buffet! Best chocolate cake ever! We had excellent seats! Cowboy Brad put on a great concert! Managed to spend some money in the gift shop! The place is beautiful! 10 out of 10!! read more

Great selection of food in the buffet; something for everyone. The staff are very friendly and attentive. The entertainment is superb (we saw the Hit Parade Variety show).

My lady and I enjoyed our return to the Silver Star after 3 years. We chose the Ultimate Hits show featuring rock hits from the 60's, 70's and 80's. When we arrived this past Friday (August 4th) evening, we noticed the bar was no longer there. We were informed that our servers (they were wonderful, not to mention efficient) would be available to take cocktail orders at our table and this worked out fine. The buffet was still there and the fare was good overall except for the pasta which was fairly salty. Their famous layered chocolate cream cake was delicious as always and our iced water tumblers were never empty. The show was absolutely fantastic as always with the exception of the underwhelming jokes. The artists were enthusiastic and had no problem getting us audience members to engage with them. The various song selections were well sung and played and much appreciated by those of us in the audience. The band and vocalists were at the TOP of their game during this Ultimate Hits show! Note: The Elvis impersonator was damned good! A BIG thank you to the band, vocalists and the outstanding staff at The Silver Star! We're looking forward to attending additional shows in the near future! read more

First class entertainment everytime we go (usually six of us); we've never been disappointed. The buffet is one of the best in the area. But it's the music, music, music!!!! Professional musicians that love to entertain and the audience loves every minute of it! Can't wait to see what's coming up for the 25/26 season, since we'll have beau coup visitors during the holidays. read more

The dinner was a buffet. Salad bar was well stocked. The entrees were pretty good, with a choice of turkey, beef and ham. If you have a mobility issues, the staff will assist you with getting your food. The performance was very good. We were there for the Christmas event, they sang many well know Christmas songs and a few I didn't recognize. There were a few light moments , generating laughs. Overall, very good read more

Everything was excellent! The service was excellent. The food was excellent. The show was excellent. I recommend going and will definitely be going back there. read more

Look, it's not Branson. It's not in the same atmosphere as Vegas...it's Mesa. But it was fun and pretty OK food. Such awesome hostesses and servers. We had a fun date night and are planning to bring the whole family next time and enjoy ourselves again! So yes, I'd recommend the Silver Star Theater. 4 star because the food was average to middlin'. Food: I would say if you're a foodie, this is not the place for you. If you just want something to taste ok and fill you up, you're home Just think high school cafeteria food vibes. The food was nice and hot. The rolls were warm. The salad bar was your average salad bar dressings came in packets. The fruit on the salad bar, I would say, would be your average Costco tub or cut-up fruit. The drinks were served with a smile. The chocolate cake is served at your table before you get there, so if you want to eat dessert first, you're in luck! Service: Everyone was super friendly, and my husband and I were the only brown middle-aged couple there. Our server was nice, and so were the hostesses and other kitchen helpers. Ambiance: I would say the perfect temperature and the lighting was nice and soft. It wasn't a loud crowd, so that was nice. There is also a store, lols. They know their audience! read more

The food was very good but the entertainment was painful due to the lighting and sound. The performers were very good but the star vocalist and fiddle mic was so loud it was painful and over shadowed the group. It would have been excellent. The light blasted in your face ever so often and you didn't know when that would happen. read more

The buffet style food aray was very good, the hot food was hot and the desert was tasty. We went to the variety show type performance. Speaking from a musician's perspective, the performance was outstanding with the music and vocals exceptional. read more

Same food on buffet time and time again. Extremely salty tonight. $85 for Valentine Day. Only difference between Valentine day and regular shows was you got a small bottle of Champagne. Compared to last year entertainment has gone down hill quit a bit. Didn't care for female vocalist. Her "dancing" was painful to watch at times. Rick Lindsey aka Elvis was really good .... Drummer and key boards did good job. They had lots open seats which not surprising when you look at cost and fact they served a buffet with mediocre food and OK entertainment. .. read more

Buffet food was very good. Ambiance for a dinner show was great. The performance was excellent. Lively and entertaining.

Went for Murder on the Strip... Didn't know it was canceled until the band came out... Got my money back. No problem. $50 for an ok buffet and an almost ok band.... Unimpressive... There was a bus load of folks from Peoria... sure if they knew about the change or not. Nice venue. Would consider going back for a play. It would be nice to have a no buffet option. read more

Notice all of the other 5 Star yelps? Yeah, it's not just yours truly. A plush setup in a nice neighborhood with great food and......Jessi! Banquet servers work really hard. Both my brother and I have done such work. Jessi is at the top of the heap. Jessi and her Teammates tended to a nearly sold out house in competent and girl-next-door beauty and style. I am on Yelp in part to give props to hardworking service workers that can make or break a customer experience. Has your Server taken great care of you? Please Tip them commensurately and tell them how much you appreciate them. They deserve it. Aloha Jessi! read more

The show/entertainment was great!!! The buffet could have been a little better, but was okay.

We came from Cave Creek and thoroughly enjoyed the show and the food. What a bargain! I wish they would consider a Scottsdale location.

Wonderful! Great food, great entertainment and they sing all the Christmas songs during the Christmas holidays! It was a great experience!

We had never been here before and it was recommended by some neighbors. We purchased tickets for Solid Gold and enjoyed the show and dinner so much we returned for Malt Shop Memories. What amazing talent these musicians have. I loved how they got the audience involved. This has become our new "go to" place for an amazing entertainment experience. read more

The entertainment and food were amazing! The price is well worth it as well. We will definitely go back.

Went last night and saw the Vegas show. I was happy to see servers at the buffet, so there was less chance of passing germs. Same variety of food as in the past. Everything was good. I go every year but this was my first time for the Vegas show. It is a much better show. I will go back again read more

WOW, FANTASTIC, AMAZING!!! You have to see this to really understand what an amazing show it is. The show was one of the best I have EVER attended in the Valley of the Sun anywhere. The food was very good and we (large group) all agreed the price just under $40 apiece for dinner and food was well worth it. They had a packed house and every second of the evening was perfect. Alcohol is available for a cost but it too was extremely reasonable. We were told every show is different............so we will all be going back. Check this one out it is a "have to see" event in Mesa! read more

The Rhythm Cats put on an outstanding show. We picked their Variety Show and were treated to a tight, well rehearsed, musically diverse and completely entertaining show band. Each member has impeccable musicology credentials on a variety of instruments. This is Las Vegas class entertainment here in Mesa, AZ. The buffet style dinner was tops with a super variety salad bar and tasty main course buffet with 4 or 5 different meat choices very well prepared. The dinner alone was worth the price of admission only to be outdone by the stellar show performance. The addition of Jackie added the right female touch to the show. We will be back for more at the Silverstar that's for sure. read more

Wow wow wow Went to the dinner theater last night and was amazed at how delicious the dinner was and then enjoyed the evening with the quality musicians who played multiple instruments and sang with voices that were so awesome. This is a great value for entertainment in the Mesa area and a must. The cost is under $40 each so a value for the quality of service and entertainment. Check this out for yourself you will not be disappointed I'm a snow bird in a Rv Park and this is the best experience thus far that we BOTH enjoyed our evening together. A MUST read more

We went to the dinner show last night. The staff was super friendly and right on top of things. The buffet was an excellent variety and their salad bar was the best we have had this vacation.
