The Gourmet Detective has been a professional in the food and murder business since 1990. What makes us unique is our emphasis on the patron's overall experience. Our murder mystery characters interact and "play" with interested audience members during the show while serving up an elegant dinner as the mystery unfolds. Once inside the stylish dining atmosphere, you'll sit back and enjoy a visual feast of authentic costuming, sets and live period music. Our professionally scripted, audience participation mysteries have won awards and rave reviews (Winner of both the Critic's Choice Award for "Best Dinner Theater" and the "Best Kept Secret" Award from Orange Coast Magazine, and "Best of the West... Best Mystery Dinner Theater" from Sunset Magazine).
The Gourmet Detective is celebrating its 19th year of mystery and mayhem in Orange County, CA. Opened November 2, 1990 with the Bogart parody MURDER AT THE CAFE NOIR.
