Over the last three years, we have visited this, Medieval Times and the Pirates dinner show. This was genuinely the best of the three for us.
Right, it doesn't have the spectacle of the horses. But the overall package was easily the strongest of the three dinner shows. The staff were super friendly (our server's name began with B, I think, and he was wearing a crown while dealing with us. I wish I could remember his name, as he was funny and super attentive). The food was easily the strongest (a selection of Italian food off a menu; pizza, pasta, etc).
The show was funny. It's not some groundbreaking "Citizen Kane" show. It's a dinner show with some fun and laughs, a lot of songs, a lot of crowd interaction and creates a great atmosphere. The audience loved every moment, and it was very funny.
It was a little raunchy in places, but nothing too crazy. The odd "Joke for the Dads!" type of stuff. Harmless stuff, mostly predictable, but of the three shows, probably the most "adult" orientated, rather than pure family stuff (I find the Pirates show to be so child orientated as to not be much fun if you're going without kids).
The actress playing Jewel had a great voice too.
The discounted tickets online were amazing value though. We got the VIP tickets, so for $50, we got our three course dinner and a show. There was also free flowing alcohol included in that price.
One criticism; the giftshop felt very underutilized. Not one person during the show was wearing any of the fedoras or boas that were on sale. You couldn't hit the giftshop (as far as I could tell; we were ushered past in quite quicky) before the show. If it was open during intermission, no one seemed to notice. It feels as if an expanded and easier accessed gift shop would encourage people to buy costume pieces before the show, to wear during the show. Maybe we just hit a bad night in that regard though, and on other nights, the audience might have pushed more for it.
But overall, easily the best overall experience we've had at a dinner show in the area, and I'd heavily recommend it for anyone considering a night out.
