I was really excited about The Dinner Detective and was happy when I found free parking on the street, but the "show" wasn't really worth much. The food was decent, but nothing to really write home about. I tried all three appetizers that the waitstaff was walking around with, and the best of the three was the mushroom quesadilla. The salad didn't seem to have very fresh ingredients. My dinner selection was the beef tenderloin, which was the highlight of my meal; the mushroom sauce was excellent. For dessert I had the bread pudding, which was okay. I wished that the "show" was more interactive. Maybe if I had shelled out more money for a package, I would have had more fun. They also didn't give us enough time to review our clues, which my sister was very disappointed about. I was told that there is a Dinner Detective in Long Beach which is on a boat, which I would definitely want to try. I just feel the L.A. Dinner Detective wasn't "exciting" enough for me. Definitely not what I expected.

I really enjoyed attending this. If you paid attention to the clues, it can be easily solved. It's pretty easy to figure out whose part of the show too. But if you let loose and just enjoy the show, it's fun. The food was surprisingly good. Moist, flavorable and filling. The mystery was entertaining and pretty funny. Lots of parking on street, so you don't really need to valet.

Pros: tasty meals, friendly service, funny show

Cons: everything is includes except for the drinks
