Editorial Review for Medieval Times Dinner & Tournament – by T.R. Witom

The Scene
The tiered stadium has nearly 1,500 seats, which provide perches for plates and ringside views of the equine demonstrations and tournament. Everyone gets a paper crown color-coded to match costumes worn by the various "knights." After the horses run through their paces, the jousting begins. Matches start tamely but escalate to a fight to the finish as mock knights engage in skirmishes with swords, javelins, maces and axes. Sparks fly, but nobody gets hurt.

The Food
Don't expect a regal feast. A basic one-size-fits-all meal starts with a hunk of bread and a bowl of bland vegetable-rice soup. Next comes a roasted half of under-seasoned chicken and a single unremarkable spare rib atop a plain Jane baked potato half. For dessert, you've got one choice, and it's a non-event: a paltry apple pastry with very little apple. Wash it down with cola or coffee served by your "wench of the day."

I went to Medieval Times on Saturday night with a group of work friends for a bday. It turned out really great! The food was yummy and they kept you eating the whole time. Everyone seemed to have a great time and I highly recommend it for groups
