    All of the performances are great! If you've never been before try checking out the best of show first. Plenty of great shows on the main stage, as well as in the bistro area during the week.

    This is a wonderful theater where the performers take on multiple roles -- you'll see them serving food, performing, and then chatting with the audience. I love the community feel of this theater.

    Get The Freak to drink... it's so good! Saw the "Body Heat" show. Great performance with SNL-esque humor. Food was okay. Reasonably priced, but not amazing. Hoping to go back soon!

    The food is much better than it should be - chicken Philly was delicious. The house band is amazing and "Which One's Pink? is a must-see for any Floyd fans out there. Don't miss it.

    The food is good, the drinks are great, and the actors are your waiters and they are amazing at both jobs

    Fun and inexpensive way to spend an evening. Get there early for best seats. The round tables have too many chairs, love thy neighbor ;)

    I got the chicken red pepper panini. It was well below average. Overall bland worse of all the chicken was small and so thin that a slice of the bread was thicker than the chicken.

    Food is not that great, would eat elsewhere next time. No draft beer. For parties of 2, seating time doesn't matter that much, would spend the time eating somewhere else.
