    Jack is skillful and fun to interact with.
    Michael Y.

    Jack was at the 2024 yelpies event, walking around and performed close up card tricks. Great energy and personable fellow. Would definitely consider for our next private party.

    Such a great magician and so kind/engaging with the littles who are infatuated by his talents!! His sweet fiancé is so kind too - they are a bright light in a darker world these days. My boys and myself met him in beautiful San Clemente a few years back and we've been following him ever since . Just this past week we saw him again creating magic and memories near the pier in San Clemente and it just was such a great suprise !!!

    Our reaction after a confounding magic trick.

    We booked Jack for our wedding cocktail hour, and it was a blast. Our guests loved him, and he added something unique to our celebration. He was very fun, entertaining, and talented. We're very happy and would book him again for a future event.

    Jack was INCREDIBLE. He came out for my best friends birthday so last minute and was so so kind we were all blown away by his tricks. He was the best part of all of our nights. Thank you Jack!!!

    Jack Murdock, Murdock the Magician, performed at my birthday party last weekend. 75 guests from age 3 to 93 and he engaged with everyone. I hired him for both "walk around magic" where he performed to small groups of guests, and then a 30 minute show to the seated audience. He wowed everyone with his skill, a variety of magic including playing cards, balls, match books, money, scarves, ropes, and even a bear trap! Jack is so charming, likeable and agile. He's a 5 of 5, a 10 of 10, a 100 of 100.

    We hired Jack for a business anniversary dinner at a cocktail bar. Jack was very friendly and personable and walked around interacting with everyone, he was just a joy to have at the party. His magic was actually unbelievable. It's a totally different experience when a magician is doing tricks right in front of your face and you cannot for the life of you figure out how. I was skeptical we needed a magician for the party at all - but by the end of the night I was literally chasing Jack down to have him show people more of his tricks. 10/10 experience, would hire again in a second. Thank you so much Jack!

    What an amazing talent! He made our party a blast! Our guests were all talking about how great he was and how much fun he made it.

    Absolute fantastic magician. Keep the audience engaged and on their toes the whole night. Wonderful performance.

    We had Jack and Carrot the Clown at my boyfriend's son's 10th birthday party, and they were absolutely fantastic!

    I went on a free day which definitely influences my review, but the rainy weather also impacted…read morethis specific experience. Regardless, the free entry automatically made the visit a great value. This is a small museum (and even smaller now due to unfortunate damage caused by landslides in recent years) with a gorgeous interior, a vibrant garden, and regal ocean views. The interior includes many collected works of fine art that betray quite good taste, something to be attributed to the provenance of the home. I liked that because it was during the winter holiday season, the house was decorated accordingly; I wonder what the house looks like during other times of year! I am not sure how involved the museum docents are meant to be, but they appeared happy to show us around and give further explanation on some details of the house. Important note: public restrooms are available, and also there are even functional in-situ bathrooms. Using one made me feel like I was a proper guest to the home. This will probably be a good time for the whole family, if art and culture is something yours values. I'm bringing my mother on my next visit, hopefully on another free day.

    Received great hospitality from the owner during the week (I believe his name was Kevin?). He was…read morevery attentive to our needs and provided great information about the menu. The Detroit-style pizzas are delicious. Per the owner, they are made with a thick, buttery focaccia crust and take approximately 20 minutes to arrive at the table. The crust was beautifully crispy at the corners, and every piece is a corner piece. I opted for a build your own with pepperoni, red onion, jalapeno, and mushrooms. Super generous amount of cheese and toppings. Note that the jalapenos are thick-cut and fresh, not the pickled variety. The pizzas can be pricey but if you consider each one can be split between 2 people, the price is not bad. We also received complimentary containers of hot honey, which were delicious with the pepperoni. The pizza also reheats well. During my first visit, several cocktails and drinks on tap had caught my eye, and I returned to try the mango seltzer and 313 pizza, which was a work of art! Once again, the pizza blew me away. I enjoyed tasting all three sauces, which are likely used in their pastas. As far as ambiance, quite loud with music and chatter in most areas, as expected of this type of establishment, but there are one or two quieter corners where you can sit if you prefer a quieter environment.

You also cannot skip out on the honey siracha chicken wings!! The service is also good; you can order at the counter and they'll give you a number and bring the food out to you. -1 star though because it's pretty much a sports bar and the live music can be a bit loud sometimes where I can't even hear myself talk, but that's just my preference. I will still choose to dine in because the vibes are just immaculate, but it does get busy sometimes and may be hard to find seating. Overall, my favorite place to get pizza in orange county so far :)
