Masquerade Murder Mystery Dinner
US$75.00 per person
Prepaid
18 Jan 2025 only
The rustle of silks and feathers under muted conversation was probably the last thing heard by the tragically and unexpectedly deceased at the Billionaires’ Club Annual Masquerade Ball. With a mystery under each feathery façade, unmasking the killer may be quite a challenge. It’s up to you to determine which partygoer is guilty, bring this crime to justice, and save the party! Evening wear, ball gowns, Venetian masks, suits, and tuxes are what to wear to this high-class night of masks and murder. Dressing up is optional but encouraged. Buffet dinner and welcome drink included. Event restricted to ages 21+ for adult themes and language.

Brussel sprouts and cauliflower were under-cooked, and the scallops were under-seasoned. Drinks took f o r e v e r to arrive. Overall it was a good experience, but the food is usually better than what we had tonight.

We booked reservations with friends to celebrate Christmas and our friends' retirement. We have been to the Granville Inn in the past and had wonderful meals. However, last night was a disappointment... my dish was served with potatoes vs. purple rice, as described in the menu. I don't eat potatoes. I told the waitress, and she said, "I guess they switched out the side. I think it was on the old menu." I said it was on the menu you gave me or I wouldn't have ordered the meal. There was no offer to make a correction, she just walked away. In addition, the chicken was dry and the carrots were overcooked and cold. My husband ordered the scallops with Risotto. The Risotto was not tasteful and was undercooked and inedible. Our food was way overpriced for what we were served.

This was a special occasion and we had a reservation. But we waited 10 minutes before the hostess even showed up to the front kiosk. After that, we had a wonderful time. Our waitress was attentive and helpful. The food was out of this world; best steak I have ever had. I do wonder how they accommodate handicapped people as my husband, who has trouble walking, had to walk 20 yards from the handicapped parking spot to the 5 front steps and then climb them.

Hi Cathy! Thank you so much for the review. We are so glad you and your guests had such a wonderful time! I wanted to let you know we do have an ADA entrance with a ramp that is off the Carriage House section of the building that maybe easier for to navigate than the front steps. Any of our team will be happy to show you the entrance and give guidance on where to drop off anyone needing the ADA entrance before parking to cut down on the distance. We face some challenges with an older building but are always happy to assist!

I took my family here for the holidays. My expectations were far too high. We were seated in the bar area at a small table head the door. No frills, no tablecloth, high traffic. That would have been acceptable, but the food was just terrible. My husband and I both had scallop risotto, which was tasteless except for of ammonia. My teen liked his steak and our younger son ate one bite of chicken fingers. We finished with a cold, dry chocolate cake. $275. We will never go back. On positive, our server was pleasant and attentive.

Limited brunch menu and the food portions are very small. The worst thing about the place is that they crank up the background music, which was Christmas tunes when we were there, so loud that you can’t carry on a normal volume conversation. I postulate that the reason behind that is that most of the clientele seem to be elderly and hard of hearing. This is a beautiful establishment that really needs to up their game, menu and broaden the target audience for their restaurant or the future won’t be very bright..

We had a reservation in the Oak Room, not the tavern. When we were seated, our table was not fully set and we had to steal bread plates and cutlery from empty tables. Seating was tight and many other guests were speaking quite loudly. Conversation was difficult. The dress code was listed on Open Table as “smart casual,” but a woman seated near us was wearing a holiday themed set of footy pajamas. There were small children in the room who screamed and cried throughout our meal. I ordered the Vegetable Trio, which was delicious. The cauliflower steak was tender but firm, the mushroom jous was rich, salty and savory, and the mashed butternut squash was sweet and creamy, with a pleasant hit of red pepper spice. My partner ordered cavatapi, which was very disappointing. The dish arrived cold sticky and was saturated with so much garlic that i could taste it in my mouth for hours after sampling a single bite. Certainly not worth $28. Overall, our experience was mixed. While my food was excellent, I think it’s reasonable to expect more consistency, attention to detail, and ambiance at a restaurant where dinner for two can easily top $100.
