It has been a long time since I have been here and so happy I came back. I loved how they remodeled the restaurant - feels so cozy! I had the land and sea and the steak was a huge portion & really good! The beef salad was delish and my very dirty martini was yummy! Our waitress was very attentive and would check up on us at the right time . I will com back much sooner! LT read more

Really enjoyed this place. The environment was very comfortable and the staff was attentive on receiving us. Parking was plentiful at 5 pm but full by 7, I would uber there if you get a later reservation. There is a bar inside if you wish to get there a little early (there's also one outside I'll touch on in a bit). Seating was great and comfortable, table was ample for the plating. Waiting and service staff were prompt and professional. Food was very good, I wouldn't say 5 stars but a solid four. My steak was a little overcooked, but everything else was very good. Ordered the ribeye with potatoes and zucchini, my FRIEND ordered the chicken with broccoli and mashed potatoes (very well prepared and cooked). We added a side of mushrooms which were a highlight of the meal. Cocktails were great and balanced. For entertainment we had Elvis in the building ! Not needed but greatly enjoyed. There was also a magician doing card tricks roaming around. We didn't have room for dessert but the options looked great. The owner came by to thank us for attending and invited us to the remodeled outdoor bar and patio which came with a 25% discount for being dinner guests. The outdoor area was beautiful and interesting. Our hostess was attentive and kind. Again, great cocktails and they also had a short menu for those wishing to have a more casual evening. Overall, I think it was a good pick and would go back for occasions calling for a high caliber steakhouse. Cost was fair for what they offered and didn't hesitate to leave a healthy tip. Thank you magic lamp crew, I think we left a great impression. read more

The Magic Lamp Inn was a really good time! We drove out from LA to visit with friends in town from Portland staying nearby. Hubs and the friend picked the spot so I had no idea what to expect. What I found was this amazing steakhouse out on old Route 66 that completely takes you back to another era! I mean, it's called the Magic Lamp and it's magic that awaits you! Open the door and you're immediately transported to another time where Elvis and Sinatra are alive crooning familiar tunes you grew up with/heard your parents listen to. You should likely plan ahead and get reservations, although we didn't. It was so last minute we couldn't. But the hostess on the phone said they take limited walk-ins when we called the day before. We just arrived early and hoped for the best. And luckily, we got a table. They sat us in the bar area and although it wasn't directly in the room with Elvis or Sinatra we could hear both and it was an incredible place to sit and people watch! They have an insane cocktail list and even better, bartenders who actually know how to mix a drink properly. Every cocktail we ordered was spot on! They even had mocktails for our teen. The Steakhouse offers a variety of steak and seafood options with salads and pastas too. Plenty of sides and starters. Everything I ordered was absolutely delicious! And even the bread basket which I didn't order had some very tasty bread/pretzel options. The people in our party who ordered steak absolutely loved their plates. The fish eaters were not as in love but that's not to say that everything wasn't good. It was all enjoyable but if you're going to a steakhouse order the steak! They do it well here. The ahi tuna starter was also delicious and so was the Hemingway cocktail. If I was younger, I could have sat there all night trying every cocktail on the list. I mean when a business has a margarita called The Pornstar Margarita, they mean business. I don't eat too much red meat these days but damn, my steak with mash potatoes/ gravy and veggies was so good! My hub and teen stole several bites. I ate the whole thing and I rarely do that these days. To round up the meal, for dessert we share a baclava with ice cream and the biggest/deepest cheesecake slice I've seen in a long time! Both were excellent. As if the food and drinks weren't great the entertainers were awesome and they even had a magician roaming around! I liked that the manager (I think that was who he was) stopped by the table to ask how everything was. Old school done right! This was a very fun and memorable experience. I will remember this evening with my friends and family. It's 4.8 stars on Yelp and they truly, truly are a 5 star place! To top it all off the Elvis singer sang Carpenter songs which completely took me back to my mom/dad and the 1970's. Anyhoo! Magic in a Lamp indeed! Somehow they bottled it up here and are serving it out! read more

I'd somehow never made it to The Magic Lamp Inn until a friend took me there in April. Looking back, I'm glad he did. The glowing neon lamp outside sets the tone before you even walk through the door. Inside, rich wood paneling, crystal chandeliers, cozy booths, vintage décor, and nods to old Hollywood give the restaurant plenty of character. Marilyn Monroe watches over one dining room, members of the Rat Pack gather near the bar, and every corner has another detail worth noticing. The light-up menu was another fun surprise. It's one of those little details you don't expect, though it made browsing the menu that much easier. The service was warm and attentive from start to finish. Our server checked in at just the right moments and shared a bit of the restaurant's history, including stories about Frank Sinatra and the many Hollywood legends connected to the Magic Lamp over the years. I always enjoy hearing those kinds of stories because they add another layer to the experience. The cocktails were a great way to start the evening, and I loved the classic relish tray that greeted the table. We started with the jumbo shrimp cocktail and roasted bone marrow. The shrimp were fresh and chilled, while the bone marrow was rich without feeling overly heavy, especially spread onto the toasted bread. For our main course, we shared the 22 oz. bone-in ribeye, cooked medium rare, with a side of roasted mushrooms. The steak arrived perfectly cooked, tender, flavorful, and paired beautifully with the mushrooms. It was the perfect centerpiece for the meal. When the singer performed Dream a Little Dream of Me, we both paused our conversation just to listen. It fit the room perfectly and added another layer of charm to an already memorable evening. Before you leave, take a few minutes to wander through the restaurant. Between the vintage light fixtures, artwork, and old Hollywood memorabilia, there's plenty to admire beyond your table. Looking back, I can see why my friend wanted to bring me here. Great food, welcoming service, live music, and decades of history all come together to create a place that's easy to recommend. I'll definitely be back. read more

One of my most enjoyable dining experiences took place recently at The Magic Lamp Inn. I heard about this very special restaurant from a You Tube video with Charles Phoenix. The iconic magic lamp sign with the billowing flame is something you just don't see anymore. The hours of operation are limited (5pm -8:30 p.m.) but, don't let that stop you from visiting. Yes, there is a dress code but don't let that stop you either. Dining at the Magic Lamp is an experience so put on a dress shirt or nice dress. It's worth it. We arrived without prior planning or a reservation around 7:30 p.m. We had just left the Ontario Airport and decided to drop in. We were greeted very warmly and directed to the outdoor garden to enjoy the bar and comfortable surroundings. Within about 20 min our table was ready and we entered the lush, warm brandy and red surroundings. The jazz chanteuse serenaded the patrons and I became so relaxed. I imagine this is what fine dining was meant to be. Besides the drinks we enjoyed, we ordered the tequila pasta with shrimp, beet salad, and tuna tower. The pretzel bread was a definite highlight. The only thing that I was sorry about was that our meal ended. Plenty of parking out front. Enjoy your visit! read more

Had an early Father's Day dinner. Allegedly, the Rat Pack partied here, but according to my 5-second research, they hung out more at the Sycamore Inn a mile away. You go for the excellent service and ambiance more than for the meals. The rack of lamb was good, but I prefer it done more Middle Eastern style. If you aren't lucky enough to live near Armenian and Russian bakeries like I am, the Russian chocolate cake will impress you. read more

Why did it take so long to find this place?!? What a hidden gem with amazing vibes and good food. It's quite a trek from the OC but totally worth the drive!!! Came here on a Friday night after getting stuck behind a train that wouldn't move! But the hostess was just gracious and even scored us a great table just because it was date night. (Thank you!) The owner Edward even came by to make sure everyone was having a good time. (Nice touch)! They have live music- talk about real talent! We missed Frank Sinatra and Elvis but the female vocalist was amazing. Her voice was so soothing and beautiful. (Hot tip: They also have a magician on some nights!) Now for the food- yes kind of pricey but you're taking about dinner AND entertainment so totally worth it! Great portions and delish. We ordered the rib-bye and ended up taking half home. Perfectly charred and temp. Even the complimentary bread was tasty- hot and a nice crunch. Other delicious fixings included roasted mushrooms, loaded potatoes and Brussels sprouts. (Did we say we were hungry?!) Highly recommend and can't wait to come back! read more

This place feels like stepping into an old-town resort where everyone is dressed up, live music is playing, and the whole atmosphere instantly puts you in a holiday mood. The decorations are beautiful and unique, making the restaurant feel more like a special getaway than just a dinner spot. Service was excellent throughout the night and the staff really helped create a warm, celebratory vibe. The filet mignon was cooked well and definitely one of the highlights. The shrimp bisque had good flavor but was a little too salty for my taste. Bread and pretzel were just so-so, nothing particularly memorable. Overall, this is a great place for celebrations, date nights, or special occasions if you enjoy live music, elegant ambience, and a festive atmosphere. read more

As a heads up, on Friday/Saturday there is the menu item for prime rib and also on these days a magician that walks around. Other days do not include this, so I didn't get to experience this. There is also a dress code but they weren't super strict for us! Staff was very friendly from the entrance and also our waiter. He was very nice including packaging our food for us and making sure we were taken care of even when there was a sides mix-up. There's live music routinely, and the ambiance is very unique. There are mannequins and stained glass windows and little decorations here and there. As for the food, I overall felt it was very reasonably priced and high quality. I tried 3 different steaks and thought the filet mignon and Porterhouse were great. I am typically a big NY strip person, but I thought the other two were better than the NY though it was still good. I believe the NY steak was just a little overcooked which may have contributed. Mushrooms were solid, the lobster mac was tasty, and the tuna tower was yummy. Overall, it's a hidden place that I have not heard much about. Given the thought and experience of it all, I really enjoyed the place and wouldn't mind coming back. Much prefer this steakhouse in the Inland Empire region than other places I have tried. Food: 4.5/5 Ambiance: 4.5/5 Service: 5/5 read more

Perfect restaurant for a bit of nostalgia! This steakhouse is amazing and to learn it's been around since 1955 I realize I've been missing out!! Amazing experience. It's dining at its finest, with top tier food, live music from singers like Frank Sinatra and Elvis! The night my friends and I went, Elvis entertained us all evening - such a good singer!! Food was as delicious, their bar is a trip down memory lane (fantastic espresso martini ) Special thanks to the manager Anna who helped me make a reservation for my party of 6 - I had been wanting to have dinner here for months and she made it happen! Don't wait - make the reservation and have a dining experience, not just dinner!! P.S. check out my video of their menu read more

Took my boyfriend here for his birthday dinner. It's a very cute place inside and out. The live jazz music and lit up tree decor all around make us feel like we're going to walk outside into a winter wonderland in the middle of a Hallmark movie. They give complimentary bread and butter (and the butter is soft!) and a plate of vegetables too. I've never been given a plate of vegetables as a complimentary appetizer so that was a pleasant surprise! Although some veggie dip or ranch or something would be cool too. The menu is all lit up which we thought was really cool. It's not even that dim of a place, yet it's still intimate and romantic. I'm a vegetarian so I could only order the primavera pasta, but it was really good. My boyfriend got the porter steak with the truffle mashed potatoes and asparagus. It was huge and I tried the mashed potatoes, which were amazing. The service is impeccable. Everyone is so sweet and attentive. It'd be a nice place to celebrate any special occasion or get together with family, especially around the holidays! read more

I have long heard the legend of this place , and was finally able to get out to Rancho and check it out . Not only did it live up to the hype , it surpassed it ! Amazing decorum , very old school charm but without being campy or overtly kitschy. Warm yet elegant , fancy but not stuffy . Great fixtures , great booths . The food was great , the staff was great , our server Lynne was one of those waitresses that seems instantly familiar . One of the proprietors came to our table and made us feel welcome . The garden bar downstairs is sublime , you can go there for an amazing date night drink if you're not doing dinner . The food is old school steakhouse fair , but well done with quality ingredients. Also , if you go on weekends , there is a free roaming table magician . Go for a special night , or A drink and Desert to impress that special someone . My highest recommendation! read more

The Magic Lamp Inn is absolutely yummy. The meals we enjoyed was nothing short of spectacular. The Ribeye was perfectly cooked, juicy, and bursting with rich, savory flavors that satisfied every bite. The Filet Mignon was tender and melt-in-your-mouth. The Lobster Mac and Cheese was decadently creamy. The loaded baked potatoes complemented the meal beautifully, packed with flavorful toppings that added a satisfying heartiness. And... it was HEARTY!!! The ambiance at the Magic Lamp Inn strikes a perfect balance between romance and nostalgia, creating an inviting atmosphere that feels both intimate and timeless.

I celebrated my birthday here with family and had a really great time! The hostess was incredibly sweet and courteous, greeting us upon entry and allowing us to explore the beautiful space while they added some special last touches to the table, such as balloons courtesy of the restaurant. They had a live jazz singer in the lounge while we enjoyed our meal and he was incredible - singing Sinatra, Anka, and more. It really added to the sophisticated ambiance. Appreciated that the menus light up (literally) when you open them so you can enjoy the natural ambience of the dimly lit space without whipping a phone out for light. It's a very thoughtful touch. All our drinks and food were delicious; we enjoyed every last morsel and were even served cheesecake for dessert to celebrate! Amy was such an attentive, professional server and we loved everything about our experience here. Always love a Clearman's spot and will be excited to come back for more special occasions when I visit home. HIGHLY recommend The Magic Lamp Inn! read more

We kind of selected this place not knowing what to expect. On our way home after a concert, we were looking for a place to celebrate my birthday. We came upon this place and my wife said let try it because of the location was on our way home and was open on a Sunday night. We arrived and were pleasantly surprised that there was live music ( a pretty vocalist singing very recognizable old tunes) to our delight for the evening. A roaming magician kept us entertained for a short time before our food arrived. The food was delicious and the menu is able to accommodate different tastes. For those who enjoy dessert beverages or drinks there is enough to satisfy the most challenging of guests. The restaurant offers a variety of things to enjoy. read more
