    Ask the Community - The Dinner Detective

    Has anyone been to the Dinner detective in Chapel Hill, NC in 2017? The reviews I see have all been in 2016 or earlier and I am about to purchase tickets to attend.

    We went in June 2017. Beautiful atmosphere, tasty and plentiful starters and entrée. It was a hoot, and we will visit again soon.

The drinks were a little pricey, but overall a great evening. I wasn't sure how the theater was going to be put on, like a stage , but instead the actors just moved around the room and incorporated the guests into the show. It was fun and the guests were quite lively and got into it!

Table assignment and brought to the dining room. There was a full service cash bar serving anything you could need and an appetizer buffet. We got some drinks, and snacks for the buffet (cheeses, veggies, cheesy tater tots fried onion pedals) sat at our table and mingled with the other seated at our table. Actors performed within the room as we ate our 4 courses, and it quickly became unclear who was part of the show and who was just dining. It seemed there were actors planted at the tables, or where there??? The whole thing was well scripted, funny and made for an enjoyable evening. The food was delicious, I'd compare it to a nice wedding meal. Pricing may be a bit much for some, but it makes for a fun evening. I don't want to say too much and spoil anything, but I will say it was fun!

She really went above and beyond to make the day so special, and every thing went very smooth!!!

It used to be an old freight train depot in the early 1900s, but was later converted into a dinner theater and now, it's a special events center. Very old and rustic looking, a lot of the original wooden flooring and structure still remain in place today. I visited on Friday night for a wedding rehearsal dinner afterparty. The inside was nicely decorated for the holidays with Christmas trees, beautiful lights, and colorful ornaments. The main hall has a stage, dance floor, plenty of table seating, and a small open bar in the back. Cool space and perfect for the event. There was a projected slide show on stage of the married couple to be and also a little dancing. The sound system could have been better, but it wasn't a big deal. Bartenders did a good job. Ample parking outside.

    March 17, 2026; 3 Stars Rating…read more I visited this establishment as part of a birthday celebration for my cousin. We typically come here for celebrations. We were eager to come because of the changes made to their seating and menu. The changes to the seats were OK but not comprehensive. Only some chairs had the uplift, but it wasn't the full chair. It was just the portion of the chair that you sit on. The menu didn't change. They simply added a few things to the menu. I was excited to try them. I ordered a couple new items. I didn't enjoy the fried tomato; it was rubbery and not moist on the inside like I am used to having at other restaurants. I also didn't enjoy the bread pudding. It had a nice flavor, but it was too hard and crusty. The portion sizes were smaller than previously. I rated it a three star because it was OK, and we enjoyed our time together, but there is still work to be done to bring it up to the luxury standard for which we've all gotten used to. November 28, 2023; 2 Star Rating I visited this luxury movie and dinner location on November 29, 2023. I went after work to see The Marvels. I enjoy going to CineBistro. It's a wonderful experience and a comfort and convenience to have food while watching the movie. The seats are in dire need of repair or a covering. There are also some general areas that would benefit from some modernization/renovation. The service is always great, and I appreciate the variety of entrées and desserts available. It would be good if the menu could be more consistently/periodically updated especially for someone like me who visits Cinebistro quite often. The reason for my rating of 2 stars is because the heating system isn't working in some theaters. The theater that I watched my movie in yesterday was one of those theaters without heat. I was freezing while eating and watching the movie. If I did not have my coat, I would not have been able to endure the coldness for the entire movie. Although it was not unbearable because I was wearing my coat, it was very cold and not comfortable. A manager did come to see me and acknowledged the freezing conditions to see if I wanted him to give me a free ticket to return another day when the heat was working, but I opted to stay and continue to watch the movie because I had driven 40 minutes to go out there, waited very long to see this movie, and my schedule is pretty busy so I would not have had another opportunity to watch it before Cinebistro no longer carried it. Perhaps a better substitute to a free ticket would have been if he offered to pay for my meal because of the non optimal conditions that I was placed in. Other than the freezing condition in the theater, I enjoyed watching the movie and eating my tuna poke bowl and pumpkin bread pudding. February 17, 2023; 4 Star Rating My nephew, one of my friends, and I went to see the new Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania movie at CinéBistro Waverly Place today. My nephew was new to that type of movie experience, so we decided to expose him to it. The cashier was very professional, and very helpful in helping me sign up for their new rewards program. As we got seated and comfortable in our luxury reclining seats in the theater, a server came, brought the menus, and took our orders. We each ordered a salmon and shrimp entrée, popcorn, cheesecake, a few mixed drinks, and water. Our drinks were served within 5 minutes, and our food came out within 10 to 15 minutes. Everything was plated nicely, and our drinks were as expected. The dinner portions were okay. The salmon was moist and the shrimp was cooked well. The dish tasted good, but could have used a little more seasoning. It was a little bland. The cheesecake was flavorful but could have been a little larger for the price. The luxury seats were comfortable and relaxing. They were spacious as well, which helped to provide a great movie experience. I always enjoy visiting the CinéBistro at Waverly Place. It's always a good experience, but it is pricey so expect to pay a lot for this experience.
