    Overall, we had a grand time. The magic show was quite good (how did he do those things?) and was short and intimate. Good time. The food was good overall, excellent in specifics (the buratta was marvelous and the parmesan fries were worth the trip!), but the filet was a bit undercooked and lacked firmness, and the sea bass was good but not excellent as we have had at other restaurants. The environment was well-thought out and inventive - a unique take on a restaurant experience. The display of ancient playing cards was a neat touch. We did notice a stale smell from the carpet. The prices were high, but such is the case with most high-end restaurants. The cocktails were outstanding - we had a second order, which is something we rarely do.

    I expected much better tasing food than what was provided. The steaks were great but everything else was completely mediocre. We had the frog legs, pork belly, ribeye, NY strip, fingerling potatoes and Brussel sprouts. The pork belly was so over cooked it was tough. Frog legs were ok but the onion was very overpowering . Sides were basic and overpriced for the quality. Steaks and dessert were good but nothing spectacular. The shows were great and entertaining but the food left so much to be desired. I can say this was a one and done experience for us.

    We had the best time at House of Cards celebrating two birthdays and an anniversary. The steak is incredible and worth every penny. The magic is so much fun, but don’t think that means the food quality suffers. Best steak I’ve ever had! Brandon was gave us exceptional service, fun backstories on the restaurant, and even gave us complimentary dessert. The magic shows were all amazing and I will never figure out how one of the magicians took my watch off my wrist without me feeling anything. An amazing experience across the board!

    Our two grandchildren insisted we take them to their second time experience at House of Cards for Sunday brunch. It did not disappoint… buffet was extensive and of good quality and the card and magic tricks were the best we have ever seen. Highly recommend.

    My husband and I went to house of cards for our anniversary. The food was fantastic and the atmosphere was really cool! We did think the price was a bit much for the experience but glad to say we have had the experience.
