    My wife and I loved this dinner and show. The actors are the best on the beach. We have been to the other 'murder' shows, and this one is the Original Murder Mystery! Simply put, it's the best because of the great food, service, drinks, and you'll never guess who the murderer is! It changes all the time ?!? Great night out!

    Not sure what we were expecting, but really kind of disappointed by this. I guess we were just hyping ourselves up. As socially awkward people, my wife and I did not have a great time. The room was very small and chairs were uncomfortable. There were a lot of people per table and it was very noisy and difficult to really hear anything. Several people at our table did not receive parts of the meal without asking. The clues were not very interesting. I really really did not like how much you had to use your phone to get any hints by scanning QR codes. This felt so detached and ruined any immersion. Not to mention it was so disingenuous to require liking them on Facebook to receive a clue. You should earn your likes not force them. The show was silly and family friendly and acting was fun, but it just wasn't a very well crafted story and again I just can't reiterate how annoying it was to have to use your phone to actually solve anything. There has to be a better way to do this kind of thing. I would never do this again to be honest. It really kind of felt like a waste to pay to play around on your phone. Food was pretty good at least. I think more social and loud people would probably have a lot more fun, but they'd still be on their phones most of the time.

    I had an awesome time last night! The show was very entertaining and funny. I would highly recommend going. I plan on going again the next time I'm in town.
