Thumbs up all around. Not like any typical dinner theater. Tables are set up so you can carry on your own conversation without being 'in the middle' of someone else's. Food, appetizer to dessert, excellent and beautifully presented. Staff very attentive to every need as well as exceedingly funny. If you are easily offended you should probably stay home and... More

I am neither. This is far from a family night. My girlfriend and I laughed so hard we cried; I admit some was a little over the top, but just a little. The actors served the food, and the food was excellent. Some dinner theaters have terrible meals and you are stuffed at a table with 8-10 more people, or... More

My wife and I saw this show 4-26-13. I was amazed over the fact that the waiters and waitresses were the cast of the show. Both of us had the Filet Mignon and it was very tasty and tender. It was a table for four and seated with us were a very nice married couple who we had a great... More

I was a little hesitant after reading a couple recent reviews, but only to find out that the food and entertainment were great. The staff hosts and staff provided excellent service. The wait staff are the performers. "Paula Deen" by Angela Thomas gave me a real from the gut laugh. Her old lady on a cruise was perfect! She just... More

found the Broward Center for Performing Arts on TripAdvisor, under things to do in Fort Lauderdale. Am I glad I did!! I bought tickets online for this dinner theatre to go to, on the first night that our cruise vacation was over. What a WONDERFUL evening this was!! The dinner was delicious. I had Asian Sea Bass with Jasmine Rice.... More

No offense to the actors, but this was awful. Food was edible to say it best. But we both got sick from the "filet". the sea bass looked like they ran our and split it between two orders. $65 does not include at least a coffee. Sold out so service was cold as were the sides. Servers are actors. As... More

I've never been one for dinner theater. I thought it was something for old fogies. But with family visiting for the holidays I thought we'd try something different. It was a BLAST! The food was good. No, great, for dinner theater. (Spoiler alert) The servers are the actors but we didn't know that until we saw them up on stage... More

They start the show with a song saying they will ridicule many including gays, blacks, liberals, conservatives, Christians, Muslims, Hindus, etc. . . The truth becomes clear early on the only ones they scorn are republicans and Christians in general, the republican leaders individually and especially Mitt Romney. Much fun is made of them and the writer’s characters embellish their... More

Dinner theatre as it should be. The waiters are also performers. Good food (vegetarian pasta was great, my husband was less thrilled with the lamb) Comedy is topical and spares no group - so don't go if you have no sense of humor. Be prepared for them to tack on a lot of extra charges if you aren't careful -... More

What a great place to go and sit for the night. Eat excellent food, marvelously entertaining service, the wait staff are the comedians. And the show is just one of the best in town. The Paula Dean Skit, OMG , we wet ourselves it was so funny! No we didn't pee our pants, we were crying and my face was... More
