Spotlight on: “Dining in the Dark” at Dark Table
“There is no darkness but ignorance,” reads the William Shakespeare quote plastered on the wall at Dark Table. It’s an apt bit of wisdom for Dark Table’s “Dining in the Dark” concept, which challenges diners to experience a meal the way a visually impaired person might.
After choosing your meal in a lighted area, you’ll be led by a blind or visually impaired waiter into a completely dark dining area. There, your waiter will guide you through the process of enjoying your meal—one that should give you a new perspective on how food smells, feels, and tastes.

Great service, great food, awesome experience. Our server Al was very nice and made the whole experience very enjoyable. This restaurant has a very unique concept and everyone should eat here at least once. – Mary M.
Second time there. Really great experience. One of the best steaks (pre-cut into bite size pieces) I ever had and my vegan girlfriend enjoyed her meal as well. Try the surprise options and really experience the food. – Vince K.
Seriously, what a cool experience. So much fun, a little anxiety ridden at first but the servers are incredible at what they do and made the experience so much more. 10/10, would recommend. It’s not your usual dinner date. – Isabella T.
