Salad bar and rolls started us off; when the warm buffet was served, a row of tables was asked to come forward. The dinner course was amazing! Tonight we had green beans, mashed potatoes, rice pilaf, meatballs, salmon (with a delicious sauce on top), fresh carved ham and/or roast beef. I think there was chicken too, but it was temporarily not available when we went through the line. I'm sure it was great, but we were too full to return for more. Dinner is also served with a dessert. Now the play... it was adorable! We saw Becky's New Car, which was a delightful comedy. All the actors did a superb job, even Steve's understudy. Lots of laughs. It was fun how they involved the audience! I'm sure whatever play they choose to put on at this theater would be fun to see. Thanks for a wonderful evening!

Finally, a proper venue in Mount Dora. Granted, it's not a theater, it's more of a large room (it…read moreused to be a Publix!), but this place has potential and you can tell that the new owners mean business! It's larger than you would think, the view from any seat in the house is fine, and feels very open. There are high top and low top tables, as well as some couches and comfy chairs. There is a bar, and while it doesn't really have a lot of ambiance or character YET, it, too, has potential. Regardless of any of that, the stage production I saw would rival any dinner theater, the sound and lighting systems are both excellent and make it feel like an A-list dinner theater. I suggest you come and see a show here, I was also told they are bringing in a full menu of food, so this place promises to be a hit! Come and show your support for a local venue!

Our party ended up being 20 of us and we were able to share a unique link for purchasing tickets so our party was all linked together as one party. When we first boarded, there really wasn't any direction as to what to do or what we could do so we just sat down at our table and waited for someone. We weren't sure if we could or should go to the bar to order drinks or if we could walk around before dinner. It took a while (10+ minutes) for anyone to approach our table.) Once someone approached our table we ordered drinks and then walked around the boat. We went to the top deck to take some photos and watch the sunset before dinner started. Once dinner started we were able to go the buffet as munch as we wished. Since it was Italian night they had all Italian dishes, none of the dishes really stood out but nothing was bad. It was good, but not like wow! While eating they started pouring our wine samples. We got two red and two white samples and a sommelier talked us through each sample. After the first two samples they gave us a break to walk around, go to the bathroom, etc. I would have preferred a shorter break in the middle of dinner and more time in the beginning so that we could spend more time on the deck while the sun set. Tickets for this event were $65 and in my opinion it was worth it. We had a great time and it was something I could check of my bucket list!

We knew it…read morewas first come first served for seating and arrived about ten minutes into doors but still had to find a seat in a back corner on the second floor. I didn't feel like we were able to get a real show because of the location and I'm not sure it helped the queens either. They did try! Plus I appreciate that a company in the Sanford area was willing to host the show! From a river ship standpoint...the ship is showing its age and I'm not sure I heard or saw any safety protocols or briefings. I have to believe there were some because I would think that's a requirement but I must have missed it. The goldfish on the tables were a nice touch but a bit stale. Our drinks weren't weak so that was nice too. The server who came to the table was nice and able to get us what we asked for in a timely manner. Someone at our table had the pretzel and it looked decent, but I didn't try it myself.

We were encouraged to mingle with everyone around the room including the others at our table. The people were nice and the food was fine. The "Detective" show portion of the evening was three acts and it was incredibly cheesy. I was not very entertained but I'm sure others were as it just was not really my thing. I really wanted to socialize with the group I was with instead of watch was seemed to be a drawn out 3 hour program. I went because I was invited by a group and would potentially go again if someone asked but I wouldn't ask others to go for any special occasion on my behalf.

Salads and dessert placed on the table ahead, sitting there warming for hours. Ew. Chicken picatta had zero sauce, had "funky" chicken parts, dry. Mashed potatoes were ok.

Save your money, go to the Dio nearby for the same price!!!

I honestly was NOT expecting this to be as good as it was!

The show itself was spectacular! Stunts, sound and water effects, and a lot of crowd interactive type of competitions. I loved that the crowd was divided into different teams. Our server was so nice and attentive to our needs. We chose not to upgrade our meals (it was like $20/extra per person if we wanted steak instead of chicken), but we were impressed with the 3 course meal! It started with a Caesar salad, followed with chicken accompanied by veg and mashed potatoes, and finishing with a brownie. The chicken straight up fell off of the bone. I was also served like half of a whole chicken (I had to take some home because I was so full). It was cooked way better than I thought it would be. You can purchase appetizers after you get you salad for an extra cost. The drinks are good but can be expensive. If you're looking for a less expensive alcohol option, definitely ask about using their house liquor. I had to ask them 3 times for them to actually tell me it was like a $9 difference between getting it with their house vs premium liquor. I will say that anything you get from the bar or as an appetizer that cost extra already includes 15% gratuity. Nobody will tell you it does, but it will be written on the appetizer menu in a very light colored font. What I think is a little BS is that although gratuity is included for those, it isn't included for the server who is serving you the whole night. But none of this negatively affected my experience, I just want to make you all aware of this! I would come back for sure with some family who hasn't seen the show.

If you've been to Medieval Times, the concept is somewhat similar, but I felt this show had more of a storyline and much more audience interaction, which made the experience even more engaging. The show itself was very entertaining, and the set design was absolutely amazing. The entire atmosphere really makes you feel like you've stepped into a pirate world. The lobby area, designed like a pirate marketplace, was especially cool. There's plenty of pirate-themed merchandise to check out, and you can grab a nice drink from the bar before the show. The food was also surprisingly good and definitely added to the overall experience. Service was good for the most part, although there were a few moments when it was difficult to get our server's attention. We went on a Saturday and were actually surprised that the place wasn't fuller, but that made for a more relaxed experience. Overall, this was a fun family night out, and both of my sons really enjoyed it. Definitely worth checking out if you're looking for something different and entertaining to do in Orlando! ‍

Our waitress obviously had experience taking photos for people because she had all the right angles. She also gave me three cups of jalapeño because I told her I love spicy.

Highly recommended if you want a themed dining experience and is okay with standard burger/fries type of food.

The atmosphere is definitely the highlight, and we were really excited to finally experience it since we had tried to dine here on multiple previous visits to Disney World but could never get a reservation. Unfortunately, the experience didn't live up to the anticipation. They were already running behind schedule when we arrived early for our reservation, and we still had to wait at least 30 minutes past our reservation time to be seated. We were offered a regular table instead of a car, which they apparently offer to walk-ins, but we wanted the full "drive-in experience". Once we saw the inside, I'm glad we passed because the tables in the back looked like small, somewhat run-down patio furniture and would have taken away from what makes this restaurant special. Once seated, the car setup was really cute, but the restaurant itself felt like it could use some better upkeep. Our table and menus were sticky, which was disappointing considering the overall Disney experience you expect. There are two rows of booth style seating in the cars which you share with another party as a party of two. With two adults, the seating felt cramped. The food and service were the bigger letdowns. Service was very slow, and the food was overpriced for what we received. My Grilled Chicken Citrus Salad, which is normally a dish I really enjoy at other restaurants, was particularly disappointing here. Overall, the food just wasn't very good and didn't feel like it justified the price, even with the expected Disney markup. The lunch and dinner menus also feature the same items at the same prices. Another missed opportunity is the on-screen entertainment. Disney has access to so many beloved movies, cartoons, and shorts, yet the clips shown here felt like they could have been much more fun and varied. With such an amazing library of Disney content, it seems like there is so much more they could do with the screen and the drive-in concept. The concept is fantastic, and the car booths are genuinely cute and fun. Unfortunately, the execution just wasn't there for us. After wanting to experience this restaurant for so long, we're glad we finally got to see what it was all about--but based on the slow service, poor upkeep, disappointing food, and high prices, it would be a once-and-done experience for us.

Where else can you enjoy a full meal while watching knights joust on horseback? From the moment you walk in, you're fully immersed. Everyone stays in character with medieval language, you get your own team colored crown, and yes, you eat with your hands - which just adds to the experience. The show is exciting from start to finish, and audience participation makes it even more fun! Don't forget to grab a souvenir photo afterwards to remember the night! Some people say it's a one time experience, but honestly I'd go again in a heartbeat. It was a unique and entertaining evening that I'd recommend to anyone visiting.

The food was a 2.5 out of 5. One major suggestion I have is to go early. There is no seating arrangement so if you arrive closer to showtime, I think you will end up being seated towards the end of the row. It's still a good view but middle of the arena would be even better. Even with the VIP seating, we sat in the front row but other people with VIP were seated at the end of the front row. Do not expect much from the food. Appetizer was tomato soup with garlic bread. Entree was chicken leg, half a potato, and corn. Dessert was eclair and we got a slice of cake due to getting celebration package. Drinks are Pepsi, lemonade, or water. Overall, I had a blast. I enjoyed cheering on my team. If you are looking for a fun activity/show with food, I recommended going to this dinner show, even to experience it once.
