Fun and interesting experience - Overall the experience was enjoyable and informative. But the restaurant was chilly and the time between courses was too long

Excellent! - Such an amazing experience! It’s really interesting using all your other senses to understand what food you are eating. Really enjoyed having to fill out a form at the end guessing what we had

The food was excellant, best of all was our waiter Noele, he was a delight, he made us feel so comfortable - Tasting food in a pitch black atmosphere was an amazing experience, allowing your senses other than sight to take over. Your hearing, touch and taste senses become heightened and once you adjust to the dark you sit baa k and enjoy the evening.

Horrible Dinner under the Cover of Darkness - This experience was awful. The environment was pitch black. The food we were eating was never identified to us and was unidentifiable to taste. The way the food was served made it nearly impossible to eat with provided silverware and therefore we made a mess the table was extremely tight and uncomfortable. Overall one of the worst experiences with Viator
