Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    Looking for something out of the ordinary? Cabaret Zazou is amazing and totally exceeded all of our expectations!

    We took our teenagers (14 & 16) who are not big into theatre but they loved the entire experience! There were a few “adult” jokes and innuendo so be prepared (we agreed to not make eye contact during those moments … lol). Be sure to dress up! Our daughter wore a great Gatsby dress and it just made her experience more fun!

    The wide variety of talent was remarkable! Honestly, I can’t even pick which member of the cast or act was most impressive. They all demonstrated such respect for one another, their respective talents and were enthusiastic throughout the show.

    There was lots of interaction with the audience - we had a birthday in our group and the servers and cast members made it a point to comment on our celebration. The people at the next table were willingly pulled into the show and a cast member took it upon himself to record their participation (so thoughtful).

    We heard much about Packo’s and had to try. The chicken Paprikás was super with large portions. Would have loved to have tried the cabbage rolls but they were out that night.

    One of the best times ever! We had a preteen, a teenager, 2 adults and 3 seniors and we all had a blast! We were so impressed by everyone there. Great singing and wonderful audience participation in an intimate setting. Food was excellent. I had 6 of the "actors" come up to me to compliment me after I was selected to go onstage. (I did an impromptu wrap which brought the house down. ) There was such attention to detail and everyone went out of their way to make us all feel welcome. I'd highly encourage anyone to go. You will not be sorry you did! (emcee Cheri P)

    The show was fantastic. We laughed so hard. I would highly recommend the show. we arrived early enough to find great parking in the area. With so many wonderful restaurants you can decide for hours where to eat. The actors were so funny!

    I come to this theater a lot. I like the smaller intimate setting of this one, and the fact that you can actually order from your seat. The cons of this movie theater is that the drinks aren't made very well at this one. Like many times we've watch the bartender have to look at the recipe while making the drinks, and they still turned out kind of bad. Other than that, it's still one of the better theaters.

    With the Groupon discount, it was cute. Otherwise I probably wouldn't spend the money. The mystery was hard to follow and its in a banquet room. Food was good and included in the price.

    Each table works as a team to discover the killer, so it is a great way to get to know and work with others. Clues are constantly being thrown around by the detective and the suspects so you have to listen in carefully to the conversations they are having throughout the performance. $$$ will get you all the facts you need - suspects can be bribed.
