My fiance took me here for my birthday. Wow what a magical night! From the second you walk in to when you walk out it's entertaining. The staff was tremendously welcoming, accommodating, and so so friendly! We went to the 10:00 show then the midnight show after. Definitely recommend the aftershow also. Definitely can't wait to show this place off to some family and friends.
Unique experience! You enter what looks like an old laundry and then pass through a "secret" entrance to the bar/lounge. You don't need to have purchased a ticket for the actual show. You can simply stop in for a drink and enjoy the ongoing table Magic being performed at the bar. If you have purchased a ticket for the show, they will seat you in groups to your reserved seats at about 7pm. You then have about an hour to order food, drinks and again enjoy the roving table Magic. Various Magicians come to your table. The main performance consisted of two performers ... Both excellent! If you purchased the premium ticket, (limited to 40 people), you then get to go backstage for a special close up performance. The food was surprisingly good. Normally I wouldn't expect much from this kind of venue, but the Chicago Magic Lounge did an excellent job all way around! The tenderloin sliders were delicious and the fries hot and crispy. The surprisingly good appetizer was the roasted olives! YUM! I highly recommend you check this place out for a unique and entertaining evening!!!
A really cool place for a night out or even for special events! All performers are really good and with a great sense of humour. The drinks are really good and the initial close-up tricks at each individual table before the main show are a nice touch.If you don't want to end the night early, you can remain at the bar where you can experience extra tricks.
We were looking for something to do last minute and managed to snag tickets to their Monday night show. The entrance was an experience in itself where you enter through a laundromat. Inside there was a hidden door that opened to the bar where we were sent through another hidden door to the lounge. The evening consisted of a live band performing while magicians came to the tables and performed tricks. About halfway through the night, the lovely Paige Thompson performed some on-stage tricks which were super cool and very well done. The drinks we had were great and our server was amazing. We had the roasted olives (I highly recommend them) and the fries which were both delicious! The price for the tickets honestly felt low for the experience we had. I would highly recommend them and they are open 7 days a week which is great!
So fun! We went for jazz and magic on Monday night. The staff are both fun and professional. Great food: sliders, fries, stuffed dates. And the magicians are amazing. They walk around and do close-up magic tableside as well as a stage show. Great jazz trio, too!
What a truly magical evening. In every sense, for every sense. We started at the bar with an abracadabra drink with a beautiful flower perched on the rim of the glass. Then once we were seated we enjoyed the pictured Pork Belly sliders and S'More. They were so good that we ordered another set of sliders and an order of fries. The wait staff was attentive and the Chicago-style close up magicians roaming before the main show were all outstanding! Finally, the two stage performers were incredible! Both extremely talented entertainers!Definitely looking forward to another visit here!!
This was by far the BEST date night I've ever experienced!!! From the second you get to the entrance it is NONSTOP elegance mixed with so much entertainment, fun, & comedy! I could not stop smiling the entire time! Entering the building alone was amazing. Then once seated the beautiful MC personally comes up and greets you. She was amazing and spoke with so much enthusiasm and character. She did beautiful outfit changes between acts as well. She was the definition of a classy and fun story teller. Themagicians also did an AMAZING job prior to the show. They went up to each table, introduced themselves with their fun personalities, and gave a jaw dropping close up magic show at your table!! They're was an amazing piano player too set the mood. All the servers were super attentive & serve you during the entire show. The show itself was so much fun. I love how interactive they were with the crowd. I also paid for the 654 show after and omg SO worth the money!!! Its a more personal inclusive group watching a single magician. I was absolutely amazed at every trick.
I wanted to take my girl out for her birthday and came across the Chicago Magic lounge thru Google read the reviews and was amazed by all the good reviews that I had to experience for ourselves. We got there around 6:30 walked thru the front door which was by far amazing. Got to the bar and watched a pre-show while we got our 1st drink. The magician was fantastic very entertaining including everyone in the room with his magic and personality. We than got to go back to be seated for the show and had magicians at every table showing all their neat unique tricks. Not one seemed to be the same and they were all so entertaining. We ordered some drinks and the servers were excellent as well as the drinks that were top notch delicious. If your glass was empty they were there. We didn't get to order any food but I heard it was worth the price. Jan Rose started our evening out before the magicians came on and stole the show with her personality. The magicians were by far entertaining after the show we got to go to the 654 club which was about another hour of magic. 654 is like a VIP lounge that's more private experience of magic. The whole night was awesome my girl loved it and so did I. So if u need a night out for a special occasion or just a date this is the place to go to see some great magic.
I have a great time!, it was lively, and funny. The people are nice. For a Tuesday I thought the place would be empty, but to my surprise it was a nice crowd. Drinks are strong and good. Be aware of the laundry mat entrance it was so creative and funny. I had fun from the beginning until the end. I had fun for my Birthday.
This place is amazing. Staring with the entry, waiting area and the actual bar / scene.Nice interior, well designed. Clean, new bathrooms.Excellent cocktails. Classics and "magic ones".The Mentalist performance was superb. A lot of fun.Definitely a hidden gem, great date place and probably for kids too.I will get back there soon.
