The recent remodel and relaunch of The Ingersoll is amazing. Looks great. Every seat feels like a front row seat. Food was absolutely delicious. Prime Rib, Salmon, Risotto all excellent. To top it of the service was some of the best I've ever had. We will definitely be attending more events and can't help but recommend a visit to anyone and everyone we meet.

The food was top notch! It was a very good show. We had some very nice conversation with others while we were there as well. One thing we noticed as soon as we paid the ticket the service stopped. Which was no cool when you paid upwards of a hundred dollars to get it.

What a wonderful experience! It's been quite some time since I attended a dinner theater and this one did not disappoint! I love the way the service and design is set up. I just wish there was a little more space between the seats so I'm not kicking my neighbor when I need to get up from the table. Be sure to follow instructions and show up well before the performance because once the lights go down, there is no service to limit disruption to guests and performers alike. And no recording of the performance! Great policy! The food was fantastic! We got the Chilean Sea Bass and Peppercorn-crusted Prime Rib. Very, very impressed with the execution and the amalgamation of flavors. Nothing was over or under-seasoned. We had a minor incident with rock-hard dinner rolls and wilted/spoiled salad
