This is a nice little package of cruise, dinner or lunch and a show. The show and the cruise was the best, Food and service just ok. You are at the wait staffs mercy . Don't count on drink refills or extra bread, you get what you get and that's that. The wait staff is way too busy. Also if... more

It was a nice meal, a nice show, but I get on a boat to know I'm on a boat. There was no sense of moving which is good if you are prone to motion sickness. There also was about half an hour that you could watch the water, be on deck, etc. I would have preferred more. I do... more

We took guests and prepared them for a great meal but we were very disappointed. We had been on the showboat a couple of times before and had a great meal but this time the only edible thing on our plate was the beef and potatoes. We love vegetables but the green beans were full of water and tough and... more

We enjoyed our time on the Branson Belle. The food was not great - kind of like a frozen tv dinner (think tyson cordon blue chicken) However, the entertainment more than made up for it. After eating you are able to walk around the ship for a while. The boat is not able to go very far away from shore... more

Date & Time: Saturday, July 4; 8:00 PM Crowd Factor: SOLD OUT (720 attendees)—providing high energy in the audience. Entertainment: “Great Show”—went “way” beyond our expectations. We arrived at 7:15 PM, and left the dock at 8:00. We ate while the live band played. The food was excellent and we heard other compliments as well. At 9:00, they let us... more

sorry we wont go again. really didnt enjoy it at all. i wouldnt waste my money, far better shows in town. food wasnt that great. would have been better off going outside for the boat ride, to much money for what u get more

After reading some of the previous reviews here, I was pleasantly surprised that I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. True, the food was pretty much average, but we enjoyed the variety: a decent meal, a boat ride, dixieland music before dinner, dance music during, a very pleasant and talented quartet/quintet of dancers/singers and a unique and humerous comedian. Some thought it... more

We went to the Branson Belle on May 19th, 2009, it was a really great experience we really enjoyed the shows, especially the talking dogs. The food wasn't great, very average, but wasn't terrible either, My only suggestion, use real tea, not instant, tea was bad. There was smoking on the outside deck which wasn't good for non-smokers, because you... more

Our kids really enjoyed the talking dogs performance. We had some issues with seating, our seats were obstructed although we were not told so when we purchased. We were given other seats on the upper level when we complained. There was another family who experienced a similar situation and was asked to split up. The food was good, service was... more
