Let me start off by saying that The Magic Castle is a private club and if you don’t know a member the only way (as of fall 2023) to get in is by staying a night at the Magic Castle hotel. That being said, if you are a fan of Magic - spending a night at the Magic Castle must be on your bucket list. It really is a special place filled with amazing magical acts of all types, a nice (if overpriced) restaurant and many great bars. Plan to spend the entire night from open to close and you still won’t get to see every act that you want. If you can avoid going on a weekend that will help with some of the lines inside. With a dinner purchase you get one reserved seat per person to the main showroom show but all the other showrooms are first come first serve. No pictures or video are allowed anywhere inside and formal dress is required. Can’t wait to go back!
I have always wanted to explore the inside of this majestic building… We were so lucky to receive an invite from a member, and the dream came true! I’m not going to give details; the fun is in not knowing everything ahead of time, and this place’s mystique is well deserved. Formal attire is required and it was incredible to see everyone there in gorgeous clothes. Enjoy it; there are few places left like this. The building is all that you imagine it will be! I was in awe and loved every minute. Dinner there was incredible. Everyone in our party ordered something different and it was all fantastic..even cocktails with magic bubbles! You are then entertained all evening with shows from gifted magicians. It was a “little magic in an everyday life” for us! This was an incredible experience for our family and we are grateful for the invitation and the hospitality that everyone at the Castle provided! If you get to go.. make the most of every moment.

Magic Castle offers a truly enchanting night. The atmosphere is steeped in old-world charm and each magician delivers top-notch performances that will leave you in awe. A unique, must-visit venue for magic enthusiasts and casual visitors alike. Highly recommended!
This place is absolutely stunning. Takes you back to 1845 magical art , this place you have to get invite to go in. So if you hear someone that has any connection with Magic Castle, you have to be his friend please!!! you have no idea how beautiful and magical displays. The vibes are absolutely different than everything you do here in Los Angeles. The food inside is amazing and more than that. I cannot tell to not destroy your surprise.
The building is fantastic, the food was delicious, I had the beef Wellington, but deducting a star because the service was awful. The hostess and entry staff were so rude, on the way in and the way out. Really left a sour taste. Everyone inside was delightful, especially the usher to the showroom. Worth going for the experience.
What an amazing or should I say magical place. The atmosphere is mesmerising and the performers are world class.

Had the most amazing experience! Brunch food was delicious and one of our favorite magicians was performing today @JamesKnight! If you enjoy mentalism performances please check out James Knight!
What a fun and magical evening! The magic castle is truly a unique and elegant experience! In addition to the wonderful magic performances, the food and drinks are delicious (and not too pricey when compared to other specialty venues). The staff is warm and welcoming, but quite strict about the house rules, such as dress code. If you are lucky enough to get an invitation, you should definitely pay them a visit!
We recently went here for brunch with my kids after learning that this was indeed a real thing and not just a punchline from Arrested Development. :D We had a blast, the shows were really amazing and the staff were incredibly accommodating for my husband who is a wheelchair user. We were really pleasantly surprised how fantastic the staff were helping us navigate the seating and shows so he could participate. We can't wait to come back and go to the evening show. 10/10!
Wonderful unique eclectic building providing good food and impressive variety of magicians! Even better if you are fortunate enough to be a guest of a member. Put it on your bucket list!
