As each of us watched so closely, Alan bent quarters, spoons and read our minds revealing cards that we selected. If you ever have the opportunity, see Alan! Invite him to your function!

First off, you really can't beat the price. Your ticket includes a dinner buffet and magic show…read more What a deal! I suggest arriving early so you get first pick of the food. By the time we got to desserts, the ice cream bar was a bowl of soup. I honestly only came to eat. I couldn't find any pictures online of what kinds of food would be available. As far as taste, the food was ok, let's just say I didn't grab seconds. The good thing about the buffet, was that they was a little something of everything. Even the kids had their own line. The magician was funny, the show itself was cute. I've been to magic shows in Vegas and this is nothing like that. You get what you pay for. It's definitely would check it out, but I won't pay to see it again. It was one of those, once you see it, you're good. If you've seen this show before, I'd find something else to do on a Wednesday night. Overall, food was a 2/5 and show was a 4/5. That is why I'm giving a 3 star review.

Secondly, they've been a big hit at both of the parties we've hosted. Both the kids AND adults took part in receiving a face painting and twisted balloon.

I actually first saw Mike Ching by accident when on youtube, there was a video of him making a girl…read morefloat in the middle of a restaurant! Since then, I have been seeing his name all over town, and it seems just about everyone on the island has been hiring him to perform at their parties. He does those tricks that make you stand there with your mouth open for 5 minutes. I had a chance to talk to him and I was really impressed. Besides the fact that he made my fork disappear into thin air lol! He has been doing magic since he was 6 and he doesn't just do magic but designs sets and props, and is a total expert on how to dress like Santa which he takes very seriously. He said that it hurts a kids feelings if a Santa looks bad, so he always wants to make sure to be the BEST santa EVER! He also said it isn't that hard, that for $5 you can go to Longs and get what you need that it just takes a little effort. I just thought that was really cool that he cares about kids that much that it makes him mad to see BAD SANTAS lol. He was really upset when he talked about Santas who don't take pride in their appearance and character! I would definitely hire him for my kids party and actually would hire him to consult on any event I did because he knows just about everything there is to know about having an event in Hawaii and the vendors to hire etc. I think he could save you a lot of headaches and a small fortune if you hired him to consult on your event.

Mike came to our event on April 28th 2019 and it was at the Mai Tai bar in Ala Moana center. The…read moreevent was a supposed to be a family event but we didn't have much for the kids scheduled. Mike came as a strolling magician and delighted both kids and adults alike with his quick wit and slight of hand. I would recommend Mike Ching Magic for anyone that wanted that something extra for the whole family. It's very rare to find an entertainer that works for all ages. Mike Ching is that person.

Writing in from New Jersey, and still thinking about this show!…read more From the moment you walk in, you're placed into this beautifully curated museum of oddities that immediately sets the tone for the rest of the evening. It's immersive, thoughtful, and has a little bit of history. Once inside the theater, the stage design continues that experience, reflecting King David's travels with what feels like carefully collected souvenirs from his travels around the world. I loved how the history was woven in so seamlessly. It actually sent me down a rabbit hole learning more about Hawaii's last monarch afterwards haha. The show itself? Phenomenal. Aki and Ken are not only incredibly skilled magicians; both masters of sleight of hand and parlor magic respectively, but also genuinely hilarious. Their chemistry carries the entire experience, and they stayed perfectly in theme with the Hawaiian Victorian atmosphere in the magic they performed. I won't spoil anything, but I will say I was left completely mind-blown. There were moments that genuinely didn't seem possible, and just when you think you've caught your breath, another reveal hits. It just kept building, which is the type of magic I really enjoy watching. The venue is intimate and seats about 60 guests. There truly isn't a bad one in the house. Being that close makes everything even more impressive because there are no trap doors, no mirrors, nothing to hide behind. The magic happens right in front of you, and somehow that makes it even harder to believe. They also do a great job with audience participation, which adds to the fun without ever feeling forced or awkward. The show does sell out, so definitely grab tickets ahead of time. It's absolutely worth it, and I'd recommend it to anyone visiting Honolulu!

Complimentary drink was fine, nothing exciting. The magician includes everyone, not just VIP but vip is more often chosen for the on stage roles. He really blew my mind & i would pay to sit VIP all over again. He makes the show feel very personal. Thinking this will become an annual spot!

We had a great experience with Mr. O…read more It's so stressful planning a baby first birthday, but he made the entertainment easy. We booked his services about 4 months in advance and choose his GOLD package that included the magic show, walk around magic, ballon twisting, and the MC. We initially met at the venue and I put down a 50% deposit which is reasonable. I asked about the MC duties which the package included. He suggested a separate tip would be appreciated. Initially I thought that a bit strange, but trust me the MC he uses is PHENOMENAL. He has a true "radio voice" and was absolutely fantastic. All this guy must due must be events because the very next week we saw him at a graduation party manning a Photo Booth. Everyone loved the magic. It really puts a finishing touch on the party. The kids loved it. I heard from one of the parents their child was still talking about the show a week later. One thing that caught me completely off guard was the balloon twisting. I thought the poor guy might make a dozen balloons then be ignored. Not true. ADULTS WERE STANDING IN LINE FOR BALLOON TWISTING. Unreal. My friend's kid even took her ballon back to Hilo with her. All on all Mr. O and his pals are a PHENOMENAL value. In fact we spent $500 for a Photo Booth that only a few people used. I'd skip the Photo Booth any day and just book Mr. O

We recently booked for a party and he is the only vendor I've received multiple compliments about. When booking Chris immediately answered my email, and every follow up phone call and text message. We booked Chris for the sound system as well and he graciously helped navigate technical issues with a musicians equipment. When the event date approached he helped tailor a program that was perfect for our needs and even added things we didn't even think about. Chris has been doing this forever and is successful for a reason. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to any of our family and friends! Mahalo Chris!!!

Attending a party that offered services for both face painting and balloon twisting. My view is…read moresolely for the balloon twisting. Terrible service from the balloon lady. Not sure what's her name, but she was an older Caucasian lady. They were there for about 3 hours or so and never once did I see a line to get a balloon. Probably because 1 of many reasons.... 1. I witnessed one of my nephews trying to get a balloon and he had to explain to the lady why he was getting another one. **he should not have to explain to the lady why he needs another balloon. The balloons are unlimited for 3 hours! There wasn't a line. The lady was just sitting there. 2. My friend told me that she had to help my other 5 year old nephew get a balloon because the balloon twister refused to help him since she was unable to make the balloon he wanted. She just so happened to be next to the vendor and heard her tell him to "go get your mommy". Instead of showing him the balloon folder of what she could make, she just refused to make him a balloon. My friend went over to help him pick one from the folder of pictures . **I don't understand why she couldn't just show him the balloon folder to begin with... maybe she just didn't want to deal with him. AGAIN, there was no line. ** 3. My daughter has a whole lot to say about the balloon lady. She kept saying how rude she was... In all honesty, I wasn't going to write a review about the rude balloon twister, but my daughter randomly brought it up again after 1 month. She said "remember that balloon twister lady... she said multiple times that she needs to save her balloons because she has other parties to go to"... **again, THERE WAS NEVER A LINE. She probably saved lots of balloons thanks to the fact that the host had so many vendors!!!! Save your money and go with another balloon twister! Face painter was good!

These guys were probably the best part of my kid's 7th birthday party. I contacted them with…read moreprobably under 2 weeks to go til party and they were super friendly and easy to book with. At the time they had a deal for $365 for any 2 of their services for 2 hours each and I went with the face paint and balloon twisting. I was a little nervous that the quality of service wouldn't be up to par seeing as they were almost half the price of the competition but I wasn't let down. They arrived early to set up and immediately went to work and were cranking out balloons and face paints non stop for 2 hours and the kids kept getting back in line giving them no time to rest. They handled it like champs and I would recommend them to anyone.
