Reviews of Mysteriously Yours... Mystery Theatre
(click on links to read reviews)
Dancing With Stars Can Be Murder!"... a particularly tasty piece of entertainment. Their current production is one of their cleverest and funniest in recent memory. There's a new chef in the kitchen, Therese de Grace, who delivers some amazingly complex dishes as part of the three-course dinner menu. You'll eat well, you'll laugh heartily and you'll only have to park the car once. That's my definition of a fun night out."

"You go down the stairs on Yonge St., just north of Davisville, to a subterranean nightspot that looks like the nicest, cleanest speakeasy in existence — the Cotton Club after the Designer Guys got through with it. You sit down at comfortable tables and enjoy the attentions of a friendly staff... you order your three-course dinner off a menu filled with appealing choices." - November 2004"Plenty of satisfaction... Everything is part of one conveniently organized package... enjoy a theme-related meal that is notches above similar venues.
