My husband and I got a Groupon for this escape room as a present. We had never done one before and were excited to try it. There are several experiences to choose from: Trapped in a Room with a Zombie, Escape an 80's Dance Party, Escape the Wild West, and DaVinci's Lost Meatball. We decided to go with DaVinci's Lost Meatball. Our guide was Chef Martini and he was great! You need to arrive about 15 minutes early to sign releases and go over the rules. Our quest was to find DaVinci's 3 lost meatballs in order to find the magical 4th meatball. It was myself and my husband and 4 other ladies we did not know. We had an hour to complete our quest, and as we time traveled back to the 1500's the room was lit by only candlelight and the "torches" (flashlights) each of us were given. The puzzles were great and there were lots of surprises. I was really impressed with the experience. We managed to find all of the meatballs with 3 minutes left on the clock. We had a fantastic time and will definitely go back and try another room!
