Our Red Knight threw one, and another knight who saw our other granddaughter got left out tossed her one. And they excel at selling you take home barware you don't need or want. Everything was cooked well and served at a good temperature, even for us on the end of our row, where we were always served last. All the seating looks outstanding, so I don't think priority seating is very important. However, if you want photos, birthday announcements, priority seating, etc, it makes it much simpler to get all those things done. We added on the birthday package, which makes it much more expensive. Here is what I think about this place: 1. This was a birthday gift for our son-in-law, so we had four adults and two granddaughters, almost four years old. My husband and I had an unexpectedly great time here. The battles seemed a little like pro wrestling in that the victors were probably pre-determined, but it was fantastic to watch the brilliant choreography of the fights between the knights.We really got into cheering for our knight (and booing his opponents), which made the evening much more fun. The show itself was wonderful to watch, and the horses and knights were amazing. Tomato soup was meh.There were more than a few people who took home leftovers in the clamshells provided by the servers. The corn was excellent and the chicken was very good. We did not save any of our leftovers, and even then probably ate more than we should have. The food was very good, and more than enough. I thought it was worth it to be closer to the action, but you could see almost as well from any seat in the house. We upgraded to the Queen's package (the night before) for an additional $25 per person to get front row seats. When we did get there about 6:20 for the 7:00 show, most of the people were already there and hitting the bar for drinks and shopping in the store. The staff was very accomodating and allowed us to change our tickets to the next day. When we finally got there right from the airport it was about 8:15pm for a 7:00 show. We planned on going the evening of our arrival (by plane) into Phoenix, but our plane out of Sacramento was delayed 4 hours because of hitting some birds on takeoff. We really enjoyed our selves and will be bringing back our niece and nephew during the summer. After the show you are able to get pictures / autographs with the queen and all Of the knights and performers in the show. It was a nice night and something different to do. Be mindful the restrooms are in the main lounge area ( about the same distance as in a movie theater). This would help keep the kids interest also. The one thing that I believe the show needs is a jester or joker to help with the transition between games. During the service of the food the games are played and you must be mindful to root for your knight be sure to wave you flag to cheer on the games. You have two free rounds of any non alcoholic beverage to drink then you are served a desert and coffee. You are served a soup, bread, half a garlic baked potato, corn on the cob and a half a chicken. The food is served and you eat with your hands. Be mindful of your neighbors cause you are close together. You sit at a long bench like table with individual seats (no arms on the seat). Once in side the area it is stadium seating. They do have NON Alcoholic beverages such as ices for the kids as well. There is a full bar service and you can purchase souvenir cups for all your drinks. They have many gift shops to walk around in and a torture chamber to view (ticket sold separately) I would not recommend children under the age of 16 to view.

We purchased “The Queens Package” online which was great because it gives you access to the area in the first two rows. This is a great activity to do with the whole family.
