    Such a wonderful experience and fun for people of all ages! The environment is so on-theme and very wonderful. The feast is a bit bland but definitely filling!

    First time coming here. Show was about 2 hours total. First hour or so was a bit boring and the second half was more entertaining with the knights fighting each other. It was all staged but still felt fun and good to do once. The food is included in the show and you shouldn't expect much. You get tomato soup, garlic bread, half chicken, potato, corn, dessert, and a drink. The chicken itself was pretty under-seasoned and very dry. The soup and bread were decent. We got tea at the end and it tasted like water. Overall it's a fun show to do and see once but don't expect good food

    We had the most energetic and amusing night at Medieval Times!! I've been a few times and this was probably my best experience. The show is really riveting and even better when your knight wins ;) The crowd was so hyped and I almost lost my voice from cheering. Food wise, the menu has been the same since I went the first time many years ago, but this time the offerings were more flavourful, seasoned, and served HOT. Service was prompt and environment was clean, including washrooms. Had a total blast and would 100% come back.

    We had dinner here tonight with another friend and their kids. Our server tonight was Marie or Mariosa or something for the blue group. Service was below average tonight. We saw our friend offered extra napkins and bread for their kids without them asking, but she passed our kids and only offered one napkin for me and one for my husband to share with them and no extra bread for them either. We asked for more napkins, and it never came. Even our friends were shocked in the differential treatment, even though we were part of the same group. At the end, she asked our friends if they had a good time, but didn't even acknowledge us or ask us. Then when it came time to tip, she hovered over us to ask us to tip. The show itself was good. The knights and horses kept our kids entertained the whole time. The food was mediocre, but we didn't come for the food. The service truly brought our experience down a lot tonight though. My family felt super upset that we got treated this way. It was our last night in Toronto, and we thought we were bringing our family to something fun, but Marie/Mariosa for the blue group truly made us feel pretty awful tonight. I feel bad giving a 2 star experience because the knights and other performers tonight were great.

    Came here for a friends birthday! The show was great and met some of the staff after who were really friendly, but unfortunately the food was lacking. Enjoyed eating with my hands, but most of the food came cold and the chicken was very chewy, dry and unflavoured. Corn came soggy, and soft drinks were flat. My group thoroughly enjoyed the experience, but wish the food was better

    It's always such a blast every time I go to Medieval Times -- they never, ever disappoint! I hadn't been to this location in years, so getting a whole new storyline made it even better. This time was extra special because my sister and her son are visiting Canada for the first time, so of course I had to take them -- and they had an absolute blast! I also love how caring and gentle they are with the horses. You can tell there's a real bond and connection between the performers and their horses, and it just makes the whole show even more magical. The food? Still the same -- tomato soup with garlic bread and half a chicken -- and I'm so glad they never changed it because it's that delicious. The venue is super cool and just adds to the whole awesome experience. See you next time :-)

    We really wanted to love this experience but it did not deliver. The whole place smelled like horse manure. The show was so staged that we were all bored. The food was not just bad but gross. The sauce on the chicken looked like it was bloody and the corn on the cob was oddly mushy. Even the dessert was an ill tasting chocolate eclair. Sounds harsh but it really was that bad unfortunately. We will not be returning.

    This was super awesome! The experience is everything. Although the food was not the best the entertainment is what you come for. The waiters were amazing our waiter was very nice and brought everything fast and good. The lights and all the effects were super exciting. The best part was definitely the jousting it was unreal everyone loved it! Definitely would recommend for family's, adults, and kids! We would love to come back.

    I took my family to the Medieval Times Dinner theatre. We had a good time. The place is huge. The place opens up 75 minutes before your dinner/show, but going early is not advised unless you want to look at all the toys and items for sale. You are assigned a colour and table number and when you go in they will had you your ticket and your crown aligned with your colour. We paid for VIP which entitled us to go in before others (without VIP) so you can choose your seats at your table. The show begins as they're begging to serve food. There's a King and Queen and there are 8 knights that are vying to win. The show is ok but it's hard to understand everything they're saying and to follow the story. The dinner begins with a tomato soup, followed by garlic bread. The soup was good. The garlic bread was not very garlicky. You're entitled to 2 soft drinks (Pepsi, Diet Pepsi, or 7UP), water, or can select from their bar menu. Then, they serve a half chicken rotisserie style (good size), half potato with spices and half a corn on the cob. All was tasty! For dessert, they give a little eclair with coffee and tea. The coffee was cold and terrible. As an aside, If going, plug Green P parking 856 as your destination in your GPS as it's the closest parking lot ($15).

    Fun dinner and entertainment combo!!! Very interactive. We were all cheering and waving flags for our knight

    It was amazing! I loved the food, drinks, and the show. The service was also amazing and my server was the best she made sure we enjoyed the food and the show. Lastly I love love love the ambiance and I love how it's makes you feel like you're in the medieval period but without the messed up ness. Well it was a 5 star experience and also I would love to go here again.

    Stepped back in time to the land of Lords and Ladies, with kings and Queens, Knights and Knaves. The atmosphere makes it easy to get into character as we cheered our knight to victory, however, our knight didn't win..... There is a decent variety of beverages, with never ending soft drinks with the meal or alcohol if you choose to purchase. The meal is a half chicken dinner with soup and toast to start and accompanied by a half cob of corn and a roast potato, it's a lot of food followed by a small desert eclair. The arena is busy with knightly action from start to finish. Being about a two hours long it's a great show with characters that really keep the feel going. Loved the whole show. When in Toronto, I would recommend this to all Knights and Knaves, Queens and Wenches.

    Different country, same tourist trap. I would recommend purchasing your tickets online. Hopefully, you can find a discount such as a Groupon or something. This place is kind of pricey. I liked the Orlando one better. It seemed more interative. They do not have their own private parking lot. I ended paying $15 to park in a commercial lot behind the arena. I should have probably checked one of those parking apps before I came, to see if I could save a few bucks. They suggest that you arrive there an hour before the event to participate in the pre-game festivities. I found the festivities lacking, boring and pretty uneventful. You can basically buy souvenirs, flags and blinky stuff, purchase drinks, see one of the falcons from the show, and see some of the horses in a stable. For an extra fee, you can have your kids be part of a royal ceremony. They only have their drink menu digital that you have to pull up using a QR code. However, I did not have cellular service and they did not have wifi, so I was not able to see a menu. I think they should have a few paper copies for those that are unable to pull up the the digital one for whatever reason. The bartender was able to give me a description of some things thatI may like and I chose from there. Most of the people purchased the VIP upgrade, which I am glad that I didn't because I still had great seats. There are really no bad seats in the arena. VIP just gets you in the front 2 rows. I ended up in the 3rd row, in the center of the arena. We were the black and yellow night and we cheered as hard as we could. However, the Green knight was victorious on that evening. The staff was awesome. Very friendly and energetic. They stay in character the entire show. Our server Bessie was the best. The show is decent, my kids were very entertained. It is not a big deal, but it seams that the "winner" of the tournament is predetermined. I think that the winner should be decided by audience participation though. that would be really cool. The show lasted about an hour and a half. My favorite part was the intro and the tournament part. My kids loved the sparks flying from the clashing swords. My daughter liked the knights throwing flowers into the audience, after they won certain tasks, mainly because she got one. The food was ok. It was decent for max produced/buffet food. You get a ton of it. There is baked chicken, baked potatoes, and soup. There is a limited selection of drinks that are included. Or you can purchase from the full bar or get a slushie (at a fee). We could not finish our food and had to get a to-go box. Don't get me wrong this is fun, but it does not compare to the other Medieval Times that I went to. There was no meet and greets, It is also very pricey for what you get. You should go in with a budget, becuase you can easily lose track of what you are spending with all the add-ons, trinkets and drinks available. Parking was also included at the other ones. So, you have to budget for that as well.

    I have never been to the old stand alone location so I can't comment on previous negative reviews…read morein relation. We attended the last showing of "No Time to Kill" at the Chelsea Hotel on Saturday, April 10, 2019 with a group of 10. The table was perfect since each table fits exactly 10 people. The night was a surprise birthday for my boyfriend and I personally loved that this was in the hotel which added to the surprise element for him. Our table was on the edge of the room which didn't cause any issue since the actors walk around engaging everyone in the room. I loved that they never broke characters and would ask questions to get us guessing on clues who was the murderer. The food was good- a lot of people complain about the food choices, but at the end of the day we weren't there for food. Personally, I love anything cards and that's exactly what was delivered. No one else at the table complained about the food and we all went for seconds or thirds. The time absolutely flew by as we mingled and wrote out clues on the note pads. We didn't have a hard time of hearings the actors have conversations at other tables, and if we did , the actors eventually came by our tables and we could ask more questions. I loved that they were able to incorporate my boyfriend into the skit numerous times making him feel even more a part of the night. They also called out numerous people at all tables so everyone gets their moment to "shine" in the skit. At the end, everyone who was there for their birthday got to stand up and receive applause which always makes the night special. Overall, great job by the Chelsea Hotel staff and Mysteriously Yours staff/actors you guys all did amazing and brought many laughs and conversations since. We will be back Thanks to all those at the box-office who helped make this all possible. Helpful hint: buy bulk tickets at once and receive a discount on the ticket price Hint 2: be fore-warned that the Chelsea charges HIGH prices for drinks, my Diet-Coke cost $10 and a beer/alcohol costs $12-15

I had seen the show many years ago as a teen on a school trip, before they had their own venue. Like a good wine--or anything special that ages with care and purpose--it has only gotten better with time. The cross-city rush hour drive was absolutely worth it once we arrived. The venue, located in a strip mall/industrial park, had plenty of free parking. We stepped into a one-story, open, airy, and accessible building that immediately felt welcoming. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth, professionalism, and a genuine sense of joy that set the tone for the evening. We were escorted to our table in a dining area that felt both spacious and intimate. Everything was clean, well-organized, and thoughtfully arranged. The tables were dressed with cloth napkins, tablecloths, and seat covers, giving it a relaxed yet elegant feel. I especially loved the photos of celebrities who've been involved with the company, tastefully displayed around the room. The service throughout the night was excellent. Every staff member we interacted with was kind, attentive, and clearly passionate about what they do. They struck the perfect balance, friendly and warm without being overbearing. We truly felt like more than just guests. We felt part of something meaningful. The evening unfolded in three acts. Act 1: Dinner. The meal far exceeded our expectations. Each course--from the appetizer to the main--was fresh, flavourful, and beautifully plated. I'm not usually a fan of salad, but I really enjoyed the one served. Even my son, who's not easily impressed when it comes to food, not only cleaned his plate, he raved about the meal. Act 2: The Show. Before the performance, the cast encouraged us to sing and dance in our seats, and we did not hold back. Twist and Shout was a high-energy, creative, feel-good experience. The puppetry, lighting, and choreography were brilliantly done, and you could feel the joy radiating from the stage. Watching my son fully engaged made it all the more special. Act 3: Coffee and Dessert. The desserts were decadent--two types of chocolate delights. My son and I went halvesies on both, a perfect sweet ending to the evening. What really sets this place apart is its purpose. You're not just seeing a show; you're supporting something meaningful--an inclusive and empowering space that celebrates ability in a truly unique and beautiful way. Equity, inclusion, and diversity are not just buzzwords here. They're lived values, visible both on stage and behind the scenes in a way that feels authentic and inspiring. If you're looking for something uplifting, meaningful, and different from the usual night out, this is it. It's rare to find something that resonates across generations, but this did. It would be a fantastic option for schools looking to offer students a fun and impactful experience, and it would also make a memorable, purpose-driven setting for a corporate event. Whether you're going with family, colleagues, or students, this place is a gem. The experience itself felt like incredible value for the money.

It's an interesting take on a caprese, although I would have liked actual mozzarella pieces as well. What makes the dinner interesting is you need to pay attention to the dishes. For most, there's something included in it that helps you with the puzzle. The truffled mushroom cigar looks impressive; a thin crispy crepe filled with a mushroom mousse garnished with black sesame ash to really give it the full effect. It's too sweet for my taste but I get why it's needed in the context of the game. Diners have a choice of mains: beef, chicken, or falafels. We all opted for the braised beef, a decent portion served with silky garlic mashed potatoes, carrots, and green beans in a rich jus. Before the main, I was still hungry but given its sizeable portion it left me satisfied. The beef was nice and tender and quite good for a murder mystery. Before the dessert we're given a palette cleanser. How it comes and what it is, I'll keep secret and not spoil the game. We end with another mousse, this one a cheesecake topped with graham crumbs and a berry compote. It's good, but by this time I'm a bit tired of mousses, just give me something to chew on already! Who knows, maybe they thought their demographic would seniors with no teeth. Having been to several murder mystery dinners, I'd say this was the most enjoyable. The Perfect Bite is more than a show, they include puzzles with each course, which give you clues towards a larger puzzle. Ultimately, it creates a more entertaining and interactive experience and makes for great teamwork to get to the next course. Rest assured, they're not difficult puzzles and if you're stuck, "Frank" the bar manager comes around to steer you in the right direction. Without giving too much away, I also liked that there's a twist, and it culminates in the final puzzle where you can really sleuth by getting out of your seat and using other devices.

Ultimately, this resulted in a 20-minute wait for drinks and over an hour wait for food, during a July visit. At first, we didn't mind waiting for food as their martinis ($15 each) were so satisfying. The French martini was dangerously smooth thanks to the sweet Chambord and pineapple juice mixed with the vodka, a lovely summery drink. The Lychee Loves Lips martini was a bit stronger with the addition of lychee liqueur to the vodka. Although, I was a little disappointed to a lemon slice garnishing the drink instead of lychee. Even a canned lychee would really add to the experience. As much as we loved the drinks, after waiting 45 minutes, we finally asked someone to check on the food. It was then they discovered the kitchen hadn't received our order and quick fired a complimentary bruschetta (not offered on their regular menu) to keep us satisfied while our meal was being prepared. We were thankful to have something to tie us over. I imagine they were rushing to send out food as the frito misto ($19) needed better draining to remove the excess oil and create a crispier flour coating. At least they were well seasoned, and the first bites super crispy and wonderfully hot. Being a frito misto, or a mixture of fried seafood, ideally the appetizer should contain more than a few shrimps. Alternatively, Jokers should consider dropping the scant crustacean and relabel this as fried calamari instead. With two simple tweaks, the burger ($19) could shine as it was tasty and incorporated fresh ingredients. Firstly, cook the beef to medium so the thick patty isn't so hard. Otherwise, if pink beef is not in the cards, chefs should form looser patties (so they are less dense) or switch it up and use two thinner patties instead. Secondly, nix the romaine (or at least the rib portion of the lettuce leaf) as the hard and uneven surface area causes the patty to slip and soft brioche bun to break. There's a reason why ice burg is so widely used. At least the fries were hot and crispy. My friend noted her steak was cooked to the requested medium rare but had a burnt taste. We figure it stems from two causes: either the pan/grill wasn't properly cleaned between uses (in this case, make sure they are cleaned) or the black pepper sauce covering the steak was burnt. If it's the later reason, to ensure the steak doesn't cool off or overcook, present the steak at the table first and let the customer know the sauce is being prepared again and will be brought separately. I would much rather wait for the sauce than have burnt tasting steak. Hopefully, as the restaurant matures, they will develop stronger front-of-the-house management or staff will become more cognizant of operations and communicate better. Indeed, businesses are reliant on technology, which causes havoc when there are issues, but seasoned personnel can mitigate or reduce the aftereffects. For example, I'm surprised it took us checking on our food for Jokers to figure out the kitchen wasn't getting orders. When they are approaching a busy dinner period and food isn't being ordered or coming out of the kitchen, shouldn't someone notice - either the kitchen, our server, or management? With the drinks, even after technology issues were resolved, we noticed my friend's second martini sitting at the bar for ~10 minutes before it was finally brought over. Our server was helping serve the Le Petit Chef dinner, but there were other people milling around the bar. Given Jokers operates two venues in one, management needs to be on the lookout for ready-to-serve drinks and food and/or servers need to communicate and ask others to cover when they are serving during Le Petit Chef periods.

    We came in for a Saturday night magic show. We thought it was amazing, but left at intermission…read morebecause we were both incredibly exhausted. From what we saw the show was great, the illusions were incredible and unlike cases where the tricks are obvious, there were some amazing illusions that had us questioning how that was possible. Two magicians performed and it was very cool to watch. My husband was even able to participate before we left. The one downside I would note is that this is a child friendly show, which isn't a problem, except you may be put at a table with young children. When sat we were put next to each other causing a party of five to be across from us, they sat the young children at the end of the table, so they could see understandably, but they sat parents down at the opposite end. The family was very respectful, but if you are not a children person, this may not be the environment for you. Over all great show! I wish I wasn't exhausted and could have stayed for the whole thing!

    Great experience! Found the show in a Google search after we decided we were done with the falls…read more We chose it because of the reviews and they were accurate. We had a great time! When we started to think we knew what was happening, he had a unique twist that surprised us. They incorporate animals into the show and we loved that. Overall, 3 adults and 2 teens were captivated. We didn't eat there but feedback from the table was that the food was "meh". We did get some mocktails and were surprised by affordable pricing. We wished there were some desserts to order. Note: If you have a WEGO pass, it's off the blue line by the Howard Johnson's stop. Parking was still advertised as "free" if you had tickets to the show so we parked there earlier in the day. **It is not**. We were told by the attendant that it is $5 cash/$6 card with tickets (still reasonable for the area). Free ended 2 months ago and to take it up inside. I did and they confirmed it ended. I sent an email with the info from their site that says it's free still and they said they would take that down and did offer a refund if I called.

    Great old theater lovingly renovated back to its original beauty after years of neglect. Whether…read moreit's a movie, play or concert, this is a great venue.

    I've been trying to get into seeing more theater lately, and my visit has only confirmed my thirst…read more It had been about a decade since I visited to see Peter Pan, which I had recalled mostly fondly, so I texted a friend and bought tickets for the show. We arrived about half an hour early after stopping at Lake Effect for scoops. Who needs dinner and a show when tummy ice cream is involved? The theater also sells snacks as food and drinks from the outside are banned. We were greeted outside by a dapper gentleman who held the door for us to get into the lobby. Unlike other theaters, there was elbow room to have them check out printed tickets and make conversation about the show. Others had digital tickets that seemed to work as well. We popped into the loo, which thankfully had multiple stalls, hardly any wait and was fully stocked with soap and towels. There were people selling souvenir toys and raffle tickets that we bypassed to find our seats. The playbill girl gave us a rough estimate of where we would be located. Thankfully everything is clearly labeled as to not get lost. For a mere 40 each, after fees, we were five rows back, centered. The view was clear, the sound was clear and the leg room- my gosh. For the first time in a long time a theater had room for me to stretch my legs a bit instead of cramming in more seats. The view is historically gorgeous in architecture and paint. Though we were there to experience the show, not just a building. The show started on time, held a brief intermission and concluded in about two hours. During that time, we got wowed by talented singers, very acrobatic dancers and mostly talented actors. (There was one that we would have probably chosen a different person to portray the roll, but I'm not going to crush a child's dreams when they did adequately. And others filled their rolls amazingly so I'm chalking it up to personal preference.) The costumes are well constructed without being extravagant. Tiny shorts cover any areas that would make this child friendly show receive an R rating. At the end, after all the standing ovations, we were able to exit with ease and get back to the car, parked at no cost in a nearby lot. Beat that Buffalo parking. Extra shout-out to whoever put the dual drummers in the loge to let us see the masterminds at work. They were the heartbeat of the show for me!
