We saw SpongeBob SquarePants the Musical on Saturday. The food is pretty good. They ask that you wear your mask and gloves while you are at the buffet. The thing with the dinner theater is that you show up at 1000, then seated at 1030, then you eat till the show starts at 1230. For some reason I thought we were going to be seated, grab our buffet food and the show would start shortly. Again, not a big deal, but if you have plans after, or have a childcare, you need to account for the 2 hours. I think the show ended around 1530? I felt like we spent a half a day there, but then again, I was with family and we had nothing but time to spend, so it was good for us. The staff was awesome. Although drinks are not included in your ticket, you can buy drinks. They ask that you tip according to how much your tickets cost in your party and to also factor in your drinks. They staff were super nice and awesome actors and we didn't mind tipping them at all for a job well done. I just wanted to write this review for a newbie to Toby's since I didn't really read a review mentioning the time and total amount of tip expected. Like I mentioned earlier, I didn't care about either but I think some people would like to be informed of both. Or maybe not. I knew of SpongeBob SquarePants but was never into the cartoon. My sister and niece gave me a mini course on SpongeBob SquarePants 101 so I did know what I was getting into. You don't need to be fan to understand what the heck is going on! It was really a good show! Bravo to the actors and actresses who doubled as the waitstaff 😁 I will definitely go again.

Wonderful experience for the whole Family. The atmosphere is great, the dinner was wonderful and the staff is top at their game. The show is one of the best off Broadway you can get (costumes, props and music production quality). Definitely a must visit for any musical lovers!

A fantastic spot for an evening out and perfect for any theater fan. The food is good, very filling and accommodating for many dietary restrictions. You could easily have a good meal with vegetarian or gluten free options available (though I can't say much for vegan guests) The staff are friendly and doing their best to keep things as safe as possible given the current health climate, and have sensible safety precautions in place. The touch of having food service gloves in use at the buffet was a good touch. Warning: Some shows have large amounts of flashing lights so be careful if that is a concern.

This is a dinner theater, so your cost includes both the buffet and the show. The food was tasty and available in abundance. I especially liked the seafood pasta salad and the roast beef, carved to order. There were many delicious choices …

Shirley Bender | Nov 10, 2018
Mindy Kruty-Crothers | Nov 11, 2018

You are assigned a seat based on how many people are in your party and the order you come in the door. It's kind of theater in the round for the most part. There arent any bad seats!

I find it so funny that know one can figure out what this guy is asking. I'm pretty sure he is asking "is toby's closing?". Maybe he is using voice to text on his phone and it misunderstood what he was saying.

Usually you can only buy the glasses during the shows. You might be able to check and see if anyone is selling that particular glass on eBay.
