Our tour guide (I can't remember his name) was wonderful and very informative about the family who owned the property and the families that worked on the property. We had an inquisitive group and he was very accommodating with answering the questions and sharing additional information about the area where the Marietta House is located. I definitely recommend visiting Marietta House and other historical properties in the county if you enjoy learning local history.

I rarely leave a one-star review, but unfortunately, this place just isn't it. To be fair, the…read moreclassic Chuck E. Cheese experience is here--the machines and games all worked as expected, just like any other location. However, the biggest issue for me was the armed security guard. Yes, armed--with a large firearm. At a Chuck E. Cheese. This is a kids' venue, and it was deeply unsettling to see. It raises a serious question: what are we doing as a community where this kind of security becomes the norm in a place meant for children? To put this in perspective, we've been to three other Chuck E. Cheese locations in the past few months for kids' birthday parties--Waldorf, Woodbridge, and Bethesda. None of them had armed security guards with rifles. With other options available, I won't be returning to this location. I can't support a place where this level of security feels necessary in a kids' environment. I want to support local business, but not at the expense of my kids safety.

I wanted to make sure the BOGO promotion I had taken advantage of and ordered online would be ready prior to 11:30 am. He made it happen. I also then placed another two cheese and I mentioned it to the bigger gal working the salad bar this last Sunday and she was like "You just placed it, it is not done yet. -_-" Not to mention the amount of time it had taken someone in the prize area to acknowledge my existence to get me to the right person to answer my question on the pizzas. Then when my sister went to the prize wall to redeem tickets for my nephew, the gal working acknowledged my sister and then just directed her attention to other individuals within the area. The manager is very attentive, I would just wish that this etiquette was passed down to the rest of the staff.

We were so lucky he agreed to drive well outside of his usual area to perform. His illusions were mesmerizing, and he expertly handled a room full of inquisitive and skeptical kids by getting most of them involved in his performance. He gave a great message in the end of the performance also, drawing on the themes of inclusion and acceptance from the Harry Potter stories, which the adults present also mentioned as being a highlight. We cannot say enough great things about his professionalism and performance and we would highly recommend him for any event!

Vick had a wonderful story line and great tricks that kept everyone's attention! We had some guests that are very skeptical of magic tricks, and he still blew them away! I'm so happy we had him! We ended up starting his show a little late, unfortunately, but he was incredibly patient, set-up, and mingled with a few guests while he waited! He then put on a 45-50 minute show for all of us, and included some guests, my father, and us in the show! I highly recommend him for ANY event -- weddings, birthdays (children AND adult), social events, etc. Thanks, Vick!

Finding quality party entertainment is a challenge -- in an age of Pinterest and Instagram…read moreeverything has been done before. That is not the case with Ariana at Ancient Mysteries Divination, as one of EIGHT lipsologists in the world, the service she provides is unique, fun, and will leave your guests buzzing long after the party is over. I am an event planner and had Ariana at several of my events. The crowd that she is able to command is impressive -- so much so that I never got the chance to get a full lip reading with her until at my own company hired her for our work holiday party. As an event planner I have found Ariana to be easy to communicate with, reliable and professional. As a party guest, I found her to be a mix of whimsical and mystical. Her reading was spot on, she's funny and therapeutic. She's able to deliver concise, personal, messages in a loud busy scene. It was really impressive! Her set up is easy to understand and keeps the guests engaged while they are in line (a must since she always draws a crowd). I would highly recommend Ariana for a corporate party, bachelorette, or bridal shower. You won't regret it! And if you don't trust my review, trust Dr. Oz, she's been on his show as well!
