    Although we realize that children are allowed at brunch, the show was completely geared towards them. I wish that the website said that upfront that nothing in the show is geared to adults. Overall food was good and service very good. The individual venues set up in restaurant had some talented people.

    The price is higher than we normally would pay outside special occasions, but the quality of food, service and entertainment made it well worth the cost. We spent about 3 hours there. Your entree cost includes your ticket to the Magic show and up close magic tables. We went earlier (5:15) and were able to be right up at the front of the tables with small groups. However as it got later we noticed those up close tables had very large crowds. I recommend the earlier reservation for this reason. The magicians were amazing and our server Matt at the bar was so friendly and attentive. We look forward to coming back for our next special occasion. Did I mention the Australian waygu steak was the best steak we ever ate? Because it was hands down!

    The experience was amazing! My only complaint was I could not find the parking garage. I circled the area probably 6x. I think this is more of an.isdue with my GPS rather than anything HOC did.

    An AMAZING Meal! The setting was a wonderful speakeasy feel! It is a classy place as they are committed to keeping it as such by mandating a dress code and following up on that! Our server was top of the line! The show was a nice touch. We went on Wednesday evening, and by the time we finished the show, things were pretty shut down. The "stay at your table" rule until you have finished eating is a little tough when you want to see the other performances but don't want to do the main attraction and then go see the others performing. Recommend going EARLY - grabbing a drink and watching at least one performer BEFORE you eat. The meal was spectacular, and the performance was enjoyable. Ambiance is delightful! A definite treat!
