"I have been to Medieval Times in California long time ago. This performance of this Medieval Times in NJ is 10X better than what I remembered. The cast was committed, the tournament was definitely entertaining. The horses were beautiful. We had a great time. The potion was good and the roast chicken, potatoes and corn juice and well seasoned. I don’t care about the dessert. The facility is well managed and spacious. It was a great value for the price. We really enjoyed our evening."

"Abigail was an awesome server!!! This is always a super fun time out! Be sure to look for coupon codes and veteran discount codes. The show was always lots of fun and extremely entertaining! This is also a place where you get to eat with your hands! If you have kids, I suggest taking them to one of the earlier shows as the 7:00 show can be a little bit rowdier. The tomato soup seem to be a little bit different this time around and we wonder if they changed the recipe or the brand that they use. Other than that, expect a half a chicken, garlic bread, a piece of the corn on the cob and half of a potato that is well seasoned. It's also easy to get to as it's right off of route 3 and it's also an easy exit as well. We have gone here, probably at least eight or nine times and each time we've had a blast!"

"We had so much fun. Honestly, we didn't do many children but it was lovely to see families and big groups. Great atmosphere, and thoroughly entertaining from start to finish. It was also great to see all the different props and things they offered before going in for the show. There's also a lot of places to take photos throughout the entrance and main walkthrough before sitting for the show. It was great to see so many people also dress up. Food was great, we didn't realize they were going to give us utensils 😂 but it played into the medieval atmosphere. Can't wait to go back and take more friends!"
