Super fun and entertaining !! Their were actors sitting at our table and I had no idea for the whole time! We will come back again I just recommended this to my friend from church!! I hope she goes and enjoy the experience that I had as well read more

Went Sat. night with wife for early anniversary outing. Been to this dinner some years ago. Great idea for d inner and show experience. Four course meal was good but chicken, rice, and vegetables was about cold when arrived at table. Chefs appetizer was fried corndogs and they ran out at serving table. Couldve brought out another tray for amount of people attending. Also not enough rolls for amount people at our table. Salad was simple and food portions small for price u pay. Actually brought out good size piece carrot cake for dessert. Show experience not as good as 1st time some years back. Show cast just seemed to kinda wing it. Main detectives forgot to introduce themselves in beginning. I mean for sort of d oing the same show for some time, shouldve been more routine. Just an ok night for amount u had to pay. read more

This was the most unorganized, poorly done who-dunnit I've ever been to. The acting was terrible. I still have no clue what the crime was even about or who was the suspects because the main actors just heckled the guests the entire time. The crude humor was not even remotely funny. Luckily the food was good but I do wish I could forget the whole thing. read more

What an awesome, different experience! Dinner Detective keeps you entertained and on the edge of your seat the entire time. It is semi interactive but not over the top. I just sat back and watched the live actors do their thing. You truly have no idea what's going to happen next. They change up the show every two to three months to keep thing's different. Hosted at the Embassy Suits in Covington it was a nice setting overlooking the Cincy riverfront. The food was like wedding food, not the best but not the worst. Easy to get to and free parking across the street. Dinner Detective is definitely worth doing. read more

Great Show!!! Very entertaining!!! Great food and cast! The venue was great. Loved it and will definitely come again. read more

The Dinner Detective - Comedy Clubs Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

Such a fun evening full of twists and turns! I was a little leery to attend because I wasn't sure what to expect, but it definitely exceeded the limited expectations that I had. I won't ruin it for other participants, but you are literally a part of the show from the moment you walk in the door. I sprung for the suspect package and had fun watching my son realize HE was being accused of the crime. Pay attention, there is a prize for the person who solves the crime, which just happened to be my kid. #proud The food is average hotel fare, but there is a limited bar in the room where the show takes place. Additionally, there is a better bar directly outside of the room. This is a fun night and I would do it again in the future when the storyline changes read more

Went with my husband and parents. It was so much fun! Totally not what I expected. Real life Clue!

The entertainment was great. The actors were amazing and made the experience. The food was subpar and the only reason for the 4 star is the the underwhelming food. With that said the wait staff did a wonderful job. read more

Very entertaining, made for some good laughs with fun people! Really entertaining, and delightful.

Very fun show with interactive elements. The actors were fun and the dessert was delicious! The dinner options included fish, chicken, and veggie. The veggie option was okay. Also had a cash bar. Was a fun experience! read more

To start with they say you get an appetizer and they brought us 1 cheese curd each. I seriously thought it was a joke. The lights are very bright the whole time. I kept expecting them to dim a bit. The story line was long drawn out tough to stay interested. By the end I didn't even care really I was ready to leave half way through. Then we were expecting cheesecake and they ran out and we got brownies. That was the least of my worries at this point. Also on top of what we spent for the dinner show, drinks and parking we ended up rescheduling from a previous date to this night and that was an $80 charge!! This whole production almost feels like a scam. read more

Went for a Bachelorette party. Had wanted to do something like this for a while so I was happy to have the chance. I will say I found the ticket price a bit on the high side, but hey, it's what she wanted to do so off we went. It was at the Hilton down by the river in Covington, and this hotel didn't make a lot of sense in layout, so it was a bit of a task to find the place, but then it was easy going to check in and pick a name tag and get situated. I want to make very clear that the actors are amazing and enthusiastic and very very funny. The show was entertaining. It was a good time, overall. However... the food was... not great. Especially considering the ticket price. It was bland and tasteless and lukewarm. Only water was provided, and even then you had to catch someone about three times and ask for a refill. Not very impressed with the food or food service, though the individuals were all very nice, just overwhelmed I think. I'm glad we went and it was an interesting experience, but I'm pretty sure I wouldn't do it again. I mean, not unless there were a steak option? Or new food service. read more

We had a really good time , not big on having to socialize with a group of people I dont know. But show was entertaining.

It was alot of FUN. The food was pretty tasty. My only complaint is at times it was hard to hear. I would definetly go back to another show.

Had so much fun, even my husband who didn't want to go had a blast. The food left a little to be desired, but the entertainment made up for it read more

Very entertaining and well done! The food was good and the act was funny and well thought out. Highly recommend.

Great date night. I was skeptical. But, the actora were all great and I wasn't expecting the outcome. The food and food service weren't that great. But, that's not the fault of the production team. Highly recommend you try this. read more

Tons of fun and tons of laughs. My work group had a fantastic time and I highly recommend for anyone needing a night out for a fantastic show! read more

This was so fun! Great actors - great mystery - they really got the audience involved. HOWEVER - the food was horrible.... once you are seated they walk around with a few plates of appetizers and you are lucky to get any - we got a cold chicken "nugget" and something that we couldn't identify - and you only get ONE of each and that's it. For dinner you had your choice of chicken or salmon and you got a plate of massed produced - warmed up food. My chicken was cold a rubbery, the 4 tiny potato chunks were obviously several days old and then you got a portion of French style green beans. The best part of the dinner was the bread that was served with a small salad - but they took it away with the salad plates even if you weren't done with the bread. I asked if we could have our bread back and was told no. The wait staff was rude and acted annoyed to have to be there. So my suggestion is go to a nice dinner before or after the mystery performance - the price of the ticket is worth that alone without the dinner. Also I believe there are actual restaurants around town - like Maggianno's - that host dinner detective mystery nights (different actors and production company) - next time I would go to something like that where you will be served a great dinner as well. read more

So fun absolutely loved it!!! So entertaining ALL THE WAY THROUGH! Food was AMAZING!!! Servers was on top of it!!!

Super fun, engaging experience. Food wasn't great, and a comp drink would go great. but over all would do it again!

Where on earth to begin??? Here's the short version: about 45 minutes into this mind numbing train wreck of a murder mystery dinner, I began to fervently pray that I would actually be murdered, as my death would give me sweet respite from this waking nightmare, one that reminded me not only of my high school drama club, but the food from my high school cafeteria. For instance: the appetizer was one (1) frozen buffalo chicken bite. No, I'm not kidding. You know how you can get a bag of like 120 of those at Sam's for $10? They gave you one (1). Keep in mind this "experience" was $60 per person. As to the "performance": I simply cannot capture in words how completely opposite of entertaining it was. Terrible jokes. Time wasting interactions with the audience....each of them more cringe-worthy than the next.....and none of them with any actual relationship to the "mystery". Horrible sound that left half of the dialogue unintelligible. Actors scattered within the audience who were about as difficult to spot as a bonfire at midnight. All so bad that it became impossible to decide whether the food or the show was a bigger factor in leaving you feeling as if you had just been cheated, abused, and nauseated simultaneously. I'll tell you what is NOT a mystery..........how to best waste $60 on a Saturday night in Covington KY. read more

The show was great. The actors were funny and engaging. The clues kept us guessing until the end! Was a great way to spend a Saturday.

Super fun experience to celebrate my friend's birthday, I got the suspect package to have her called out which was definitely worth it. The detectives and other actors were great and super funny! read more

Went to the dinner theater last night in the Embassy Hotel. Nice experience enjoyed the bread, salad and pie. The actors performance was good and appreciate all the effort and hard work that was put into this including the wait staff. read more
