    What a great experience. Definitely recommend HOC. It's not cheap, but the uniqueness is worth the value. Wonderful attentive staff. The show was very good.

    Overall it was a good experience. The negatives involved the magic. One of the tableside magicians talked so low that people in the 2nd row couldn’t hear him. The main theater magician was obnoxious. I’ve been here several times and the magicians usually make the audience feel involved and happy. This one was rude and frankly offensive. If this had been my 1st experience I would not have returned.

    We were seated and took over 10 mins to be addressed by server. Main show was running behind and by the time we finished small room magicians had finished so we missed those shows.

    We went to House of Cards for my birthday. The service was outstanding. Our waiter was friendly and helpful. The food is extremely expensive but I think some of that cost is to pay for the magician. My family ordered steaks and a filet mignon. They said it was very good. I ordered the butternut squash vegetarian dish. It was good but not my favorite vegetarian dish I have ever had. A bit too salty so I did not eat it all. We had a really good bottle of Cabernet red wine. All in all I think we paid $750 for 5 people so be prepared for that. The magician was pretty good as well. We had a wonderful night overall. Every staff member we spoke to was polite and friendly. The ambiance was nice as well.

    It's hard to rate House of Cards. Love the ambiance and the magicians were awesome. The service was superb. Loved that we needed to be dressed up. The food was very good but not necessarily worth the price. Somehow I felt that the price was offsetting the cost of the show.
