Taking "dinner and a show" one step further as dinner is the show with the state-of-the-art animated dining experience by award-winning TableMation Studios™. Guests can expect a whimsical, first-of-its-kind evening as the animation (beamed from overhead 4k laser projectors) intertwines with each dish of the 4-course meal. As the lights go out, the guest's table will come to life right before their eyes while animated ingredients and characters interact across their plates. Each course, curated by Ciclo Restaurant, has been cleverly crafted to coincide with the program's storyline to create a fully immersive experience. The experience includes a premiere spot at the communal dining table (in custom-outfitted dining room), a 4-course meal with delicacies ranging from tuna tartare to steak ravioli, and a complimentary welcome cocktail. In addition, story-worthy wine pairings are available for those looking to sip along with the show.

I would like to start by saying that the food was AMAZING. drinks were awesome and we got a variety. Everything was great but felt like the server was rushing us to leave. We went early on a Friday and no one was in the restaurant but felt like we were being pushed out. Checks were picked up while we were still there and not busy at all which seems odd to me.
