    Came here for my birthday it is an expensive visit but if u can find online coupons you shouldn't be spending too much. But the food was different and delicious they atmosphere is cozy and fun then the show itself is amazing and group interactions are fun also i would highly recommend for birthdays ( it is kid friendly ) & date nights. The servers where nice the service was immaculate one of my better birthday experiences

    Service was absolutely amazing. Found this through Facebook and went to celebrate my friend's birthday. The food was absolutely incredible. Started off with appetizer, salad, palate cleanser (no picture), entree and dessert. Loved the ambiance, the decor, and everything about it, would def want to go again and see the different shows they have to offer!

    Amazing experience! My friend and I went for our belated birthday celebration. They open the doors at 6p. The dubbing room had an elegant and cozy atmosphere. The servers were friendly and energetic. Every course of the meal was delicious. We got the veggie lasagna and prime rib. Portions were generous with plenty for leftovers. The wine bottle prices are reasonable. The magician was entertaining. I would definitely go again.

    Outstanding experience from start to finish. The high quality food is full of bold and well-balanced flavors. What really sets this place apart is the magic show included with the meal!

    From the food to the incredible magician Jade, our family had the best time celebrating my husband's birthday. This wasn't our first visit, but it was definitely our best. Jade was personable and truly talented, such a highlight of the night. She even kept our teens engaged the whole time--that says a lot! We'll absolutely be back.

    What a great and unique dining AND magic show experience. I surprised my husband and took him here for his 52nd bday. He was soooo happy and he can't wait to go back for their Halloween dinner which per the ladies that work there is super specials. Now, it's not cheap by any means. BUT, look for their coupons online for some great savings. Prime Rib was a 10!' Staff was super friendly too.

    I'm big on reading reviews before I go somewhere and I definitely was not disappointed. We learned there are different themes depending on the season (Jan-Aug is normal decor, Sept and Oct is Halloween and Nov and Dec is Christmas). I recommend the Mac and cheese. It's truly so delicious and did not disappoint. My husband and I got prime rib but will be getting the Mac and cheese next time. You get to enjoy all the food first and then get to participate in a show after.

    We had a group of 6 grab tickets for the Manifestations show at Mystique Dining that celebrates the works of Edgar Allen Poe. It was a very intimate setting for about 20 people total and included a 5 course meal as well as a magic show. Expect the experience to last about 2.5 hours. The dinner was excellent and included a bacon-wrapped fig app, a salad, a sorbet palate cleanser, main course, and a dessert. I was impressed with the food and the generous portion of the main dish. I had the prime rib which was enormous and had a flavorful crust. Dave Cox was the magician for the night and there was lots of audience participation. He was fantastic! In terms of value the whole experience was around $125-150 per person which I felt was fair for dinner and a show.

    The meal was delicious, the hosts were all very professional, and the magician's sleight of hand was quick. I've got to say I was there for the Easter Dinner, and it was as tasty as I knew it was going to be having been there a few times now. I had the Mac and cheese and it was everything I wanted it to be. The lamb was delicious, charred to perfection. The Cornish hen was just the right size. And the lobster tail was supple. Having a 5 course meal is definitely a treat, especially because someone who knows how to season it is preparing it. Very glad to see the food hasn't changed tastes.

    This was such a pleasant surprise. Nestled in Old Folsom this little gem offers amazing food in a quaint setting which holds a maximum of 18 people on a long table. The wait staff is amazing, so attentive yet not hovering. So nice you have assigned seating in this relaxing room. Have to say the Chef is a genius, love the meal being served in courses with each plate carefully prepared. The sauces and dressing described, along with any special nuance shared as the plate is served. Each course compliments the previous one. Just as you think it couldn't get any better, along comes dessert. WOW! At the end George Tovar comes out and works his magic- great ending to a lovely meal.

    A Magical Night at Mystique! We had an absolutely great time at Mystique. From start to finish, everything exceeded expectations. The prime rib? Enormous and perfectly cooked--honestly one of the best we've had in a long time. The service was impeccable--attentive, friendly, and totally on point all evening. And the show? Simply wonderful. George is such a talented act! His performance was the perfect mix of mind-blowing magic, humor, and charisma. You can tell he's a seasoned pro, and he had the entire room completely captivated. If you're looking for a unique night out with great food, flawless service, and world-class entertainment, Mystique delivers. We'll definitely be back!

    My wife and I celebrated our six-year anniversary at Mystique Dining, and it was truly an unforgettable experience! We attended the "Manifestations" event, a stunning tribute to Edgar Allan Poe, and they absolutely nailed the ambiance, service, and entertainment. Ambiance: The atmosphere was incredible and felt like stepping straight into a gothic fantasy. They transformed the space into a beautifully eerie tribute, with gothic chandeliers, velvet walls, and even a coffin in the decor! Each detail, from the tombstone humor on the walls to the spooky low lighting and centerpieces, added to the vibe. The only drawback was the small waiting area, which could use more seating. But once inside, we were completely immersed in the ambiance, even enjoying a spooky dry ice effect on our apple appetizer. Overall, 5/5 stars - a stunning setting with an attention to detail that made the night feel special. Service: Top-notch. Our server, Monica, was fantastic: sweet, funny, and skillfully managed the event on her own. She timed each course perfectly, and between courses, we were treated to Poe readings from a floating head illusion. Her presence made it feel intimate and well-orchestrated, adding a lot to the evening. 5/5 stars. Food: The five-course meal exceeded our expectations. We expected the focus to be on entertainment, but the food was genuinely excellent. My wife, who only eats poultry and seafood, opted for the vegetarian lasagna, which was delicious, and a shrimp cocktail to start. I had the stuffed mushrooms (amazing!) and the gourmet mac and cheese - truly perfect comfort food for a vegetarian. The meal was rounded out with a fresh salad, palate cleanser, and a rich turtle cheesecake for dessert. Both of us were surprised by how delicious everything was; easily one of the best meals we've had in a while. 5/5 stars! Magic Show: The magic show was the cherry on top! David Parr performed, bringing a mix of humor, charm, and surprising tricks. We loved the interactive feel, and while the show had a playful, cheesy side, it was well-done and fun for all. There's a chance to participate if you're open to it (I may or may not have nearly broken a Pez dispenser - David, my apologies!). The intimate setup made the experience feel like a cozy gathering with friends. 5/5 stars. Overall, Mystique Dining provided an incredible anniversary night. We left with full hearts, full stomachs, and great memories. We spent $300 including tip, which felt like a steal for such an immersive experience. If you love interactive dining, this is a MUST-try! 5/5 stars!

    I had a great time! Can't wait to go back. When you walk in you're swept away into another time with decor and overall ambiance. Each part of the meal was delicious. I do wish I could pick a meal day of but understand with the size of the space the Pre-order is beneficial. Service was quick and friendly.

    Ask the Community - Mystique Dining

    What time do doors open for 9:00 show?

    I think their website stated that guests should be there 15 minutes before the show. The one I attended was the 8 pm one and the people started gathering in the hallway around 15 minutes before but they waited until all the guests checked in before… Read more

    Is food paid fort separately or is it included in the ticket price?

    Yes food is included and delicious and plenty. There are add-on food items like shrimp cocktail, stuffed mushrooms and lobster tail. Alcohol drinks are extra too.

    If reservations are at 6, what time do you go ahead of time to hang out in the bar? Or is there a bar area?

    No there is not a bar. They will not let you in until 5-10 mins before.

    How long is the experience?

    2.5 to 3 hours

    What are the seating arrangements ? From the photos it looks like guests sit with strangers at one big table.

    Correct. There are also 2 separate pub tables that seat 2 ppl each located in the back of the room.

    My Husband doesn't eat veggies, can he get potatoes instead?

    Absolutely! Just make a note under special occasion when you place your order.

    This place looks great! Are there any vegan options?

    As much as I think some people on yelp may be exaggerating a bit, I made an account to write this…read morereview. I came to watch the Devil Wears Prada 2 (wonderful movie and definitely recommend!) and I had mixed reviews about my stay. The movie was good and the food was spectacular, the steak tacos sign at the front sold me! The theater was pretty clean and the reclining seats were comfortable. I was sad to hear the assistance buttons were disconnected- takes the feel of a dine-in service away. My biggest issue was that my order took nearly an hour to be delivered to my seat. It was hard to see, but I believe I only saw one person delivering food? He gave me a refill on my popcorn and soda I had ordered, so for the inconvenience that's alright. After the movie ended I also saw him cleaning one of the theaters. It's not my place to judge but it's disappointing there weren't other people to cover different parts of the job, or Atleast not enough staff. I hope the next time I come back it's a little better!

After walking in and being greeted by the front desk, we had mentioned that this is our first time here and that we had already purchased tickets. The guy at the front counter scanned my QR Code and then printed tickets for us. Being that this was our first time here, he then proceeded to tell us that we could either order food at the bar or from the QR Code at our seats and then the food would be delivered. We got to our seat after walking a little bit and then when we walked into the Theater let me tell you that the place is VERY Clean and that as we sat down I realized that the seat was comortable and it reclined. We then ordered Popcorn and a Medium Sized Drink and after about 5 or 6 minutes the Popcorn came in with the Medium sized drink and let me tell you that the Popcorn was very salty and there wasnt alot of butter. The Mr Pibb on the other hand was great but the price of $28 for the Popcorn and the Drink was WAY too much. I normally dont spend that when I get a Popcorn and a Drink but I guess, it is, what it is. The thing I can say is that while the seats were comfortable, the movie was wonderful but the prices here are a BIT much. It's not like I wont return to watch another movie, Its just that I wont order Food, besides a Popcorn and maybe just bring my own drink. As I looked over the QR code at the food I also noticed that there was a lot of different pricing for food that I also think was a bit high. Great experience over all.

The pacing of the meal felt very unbalanced -- we waited far too long for the main courses, yet all of the desserts were served at once with little presentation or care. The dessert quality itself felt below Michelin standards, lacking creativity, refinement, and attention to detail. What concerned me the most, however, was the hygiene standard in the open kitchen. The chefs were freely talking with customers while actively preparing food, and none of the kitchen staff were wearing masks. In a fine dining environment that claims Michelin-level service and standards, this felt extremely unprofessional and unsanitary. I understand that every restaurant has its own style and atmosphere, but for the price point and expectations associated with Michelin recognition, I expected a much more polished and thoughtful experience.

The event also requires you to talk with people at your table and move around the room to gather clues, but it was very hard to hear those conversations as well. Because the whole experience depends on hearing what others are saying, that made participating in the mystery frustrating. The other issue was pacing, it always felt like we were being rushed to do our next steps. The ACTORS THEMSELVES WERE EXCELLENT, and the mystery and the overall format seemed well designed. It felt like it could have been a really fun event, but the noise and acoustics made it hard to follow what was happening. There was also one issue with the food service.

However, like others have said, I bought my ticket for a viewing in Feb, it was cancelled last minute and rescheduled to May. May comes and they cancelled last minute again. It's really frustrating that if you have known issues within the company, be more transparent and upfront about it earlier. The only thing they're offering is a refund, not even a coupon for later, which goes to show they're probably not doing another showing. So if you're in the Bay, I'd suggest not purchasing until they sort out their internal issues.
