Mystery Diners is an American reality television series on the Food Network. The series, hosted by Charles Stiles, debuted on May 25, 2012.

Plot

The show focuses on the Mystery Diners, an organization that at the request of certain owners go undercover at specific restaurants and set up undercover stings and unseen surveillance cameras to catch misbehaving restaurant employees in the act.[1]

Beginning in Season 9, Mystery Diners made changes to its format including the addition of private investigators, new technology, new graphics and opening credits, and advanced equipment. In the opening sequence, Stiles narrates the changes were made on the pretext that restaurant staff have grown more aware they may be monitored and became more savvy in their scams.

The Consultation

Charles and one of his fellow Mystery Diners meet with the owner(s) at their restaurant to discuss the problem with the restaurant where Charles would learn possible suspects. Charles would then tell the owner that they will come in after hours to wire his restaurant with hidden cameras and microphones. The narrator details where the hidden cameras and microphones were set up and also mention which Mystery Diners will be going undercover as a new staff member or a customer.

The Sting

Charles and the owner(s) would operate in a nearby control room to see what goes on in the restaurant which would reveal what goes on during the restaurant's usual operations.

When it came to Season 9, Charles would also call in one of his private investigators that he brought with him who will show the owner some information he found while doing background checks on the employees and details that are connected to the illegal activities.

The Confrontation

After seeing enough, the owner would go down and round up the staff members responsible and brings them to the control room to be confronted by Charles Stiles which usually ends with the staff member responsible getting fired. There were also some events in which any other staff member was either manipulated into the restaurant and is spared by the owner(s).

Four Months Later/Restaurant Update

In the aftermath during this part, the narrator would tell the viewers what happened to the former employees, the remaining employees, and the status of the restaurant.
