   Magic is great! Went for Sunday Brunch. Very family friendly and laid back. Staff was overall nice and attentive. Magicians very friendly. Getting into the building at 12:15 was a little confusing. Parking was validated as promised. We (5 of us) paid $272 for buffet and tickets to show. Drinks (coffee, tea, soda) were not included. Buffet was ok. Needed more than one man on the build your own omelette bar, but was very good. Shrimp cocktail was too soft/mushy (likely frozen then unfroze). French Toast was over cooked. The variety of syrups were good as well as the biscuits and gravy. I’d prefer to have paid for made to order quality for the price paid vs buffet. Overall a good time. There is room to give a better dining experience.

   Our waiter was outstanding; it was so nice to have somebody enthusiastic and invested into the business that really seemed to care. Everyone there made sure that our experience was as outstanding and enjoyable as possible, and the atmosphere is incomparable. The food was delicious and the drinks were even better. Definitely a place to experience at least once when you get an opportunity.

   This place is fine. It's not worth the value and they bake in extra costs to cover the costs of the magicians who do not actually roam around the restaurant. The magicians are stationary and require you to go to them. The service is excellent and the food is good, but I'm not sure it's worth the cost. All in all, it was a fine experience, but had I known what I know after going, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have gone

    While the. Brunch variety looked amazing….and my omelet looked great too. The ingredients added to the omelet brought the temp of the eggs down as the ingredients were cold The French toast looked amazing and the variety of condiments for the French toast was great. Unfortunately the French toast was over cooked and very hard. The prime rib was very good.

    Emma was our server and made my boyfriends 21st birthday the best experience I could have imagined. She was so helpful explained stuff to us, helped us choose items off the menu, and overall was just very friendly and made us feel special. We were actually sad to leave her after we paid. The girls at the host stand and the girl taking coats were also so nice and helpful.

    House of Cards is truly a magical date night. The food and drinks were amazing. The inside of the building is beautiful. The service we received from start to finish was superb. I definitely recommend everyone to try this experience out. Did I mention how good the food and service were. Top notch!!

    Steaks we ordered you needed a chainsaw to cut through. Everything overpriced. Do not go here to eat. The ambiance is very nice. You go for the magic. We caught the last show and the magician looked tired. The magic overall was fair. It's a gimmicky place. Its unique. After one visit no need to go back.

    I booked the reservation at house of cards to celebrate my partners military promotion. He is a big fan of up close magic and was overall very excited about the opportunity to enjoy a magical night. We both enjoyed the service that was provided which was very friendly and informed about the history of the restaurant. We only wish we had a little more time to check out the secret outdoor space. The mentalist was a blast with lots of energy and worked well with the crowd.

    Crab legs were waaaay too salty! 😖 And no drawn butter to go with them. 😱 Oysters had good taste but were flat and a little dry instead of plump and juicy. And there were no saltine crackers to go with them. Cocktail shrimp were overdone. Salmon lox were made beautifully, like a big pink rose, but individual servings were way too big. Prime rib was too fatty. Ham, bacon, sausage, eggs, gravy, fruit were all good. Biscuits were overdone (had to be cut with knife). Drinks took too long. Server was not very attentive. Atmosphere was great, just a bit too dark. Floor magicians were great but the "show" was just ok. Liked the complementary photo.

    Excelent experience! We loved the food and the environment. ONLY thing we did not like was there was a drunk group that killed the mood, they were too drunk and was messing with the small magic shows out by the tables. So obnoxious that even one magician had to shorten the show to one trick because he did not want to mess with them. BUT they kept going to the bar and they kept providing them drinks. Made us leave earlier than we wanted to. Other than that the experience was great.

    The location was difficult to get to, the setting was amazing, the bar tender was awesome, the magicians were fair, the food was awful, and the bathroom had several toilets that were clogged and wouldn't flush. For the price I definitely anticipated FAR BETTER. I wouldn't go back to eat, but I'll likely go back for a drink when friends come to visit.

    I thought the food was very good, but incredibly expensive. The mood was really ruined by the waiter though. We had a group of 4 and the bill was $700. We had received a $200 gift card for Christmas and applied it towards the total. I tipped on the remaining balance, which admittedly, wasn’t my best idea. It still wound up being 14% of original amount. I’m typically a 20% guy regardless of service, so I admit I didn’t do my part. In my slight defense, we were with another couple and trying to split up evenly. Anyway, the waiter sought me out about 15 minutes later and pulled me from the group (waiting in line for the show), to ask me if I made a mistake on his tip. Poor form by me to tip less than 15 or 20%, but the waiter was out of line in my opinion. I won’t be going back.

    I’m gonna dive right in, I love the decor. It’s super old school Hollywood meets magician world, meets swanky cocktail bar/lounge. But as we were being escorted by the host to our table, she walked us to two separate areas to stop us and talk about the “experiences”, but it was a bit awkward to be shuttled around before being sat at our table … I think a simple conversation at the table would have been more appropriate. Dining: The drink & wine list wasn’t anything to rave about. Our drinks were way too sweet and even after sending them back for another try, we couldn’t taste the alcohol at all and they tasted more like beachy drinks than a lounge and steak spot. I expected something magical ya know. Maybe some smoke or oversized ice cube and a cool cobbler with a surprise… I mean, it is magic show experience after all right? Moving on; The steaks were delicious and cooked to perfection! - but the sides were bland and not nearly as good as they raved about. So we passed on dessert. By the time we finished dinner, the next magic show wouldn’t begin for another 45 mins… and since the drinks didn’t excite us enough to make us want to kick back and wait for the show… so we left. Over all, we expected a magical experience along with a delicious meal, but we felt like it was quite set up right to make it really flow and make sense for what we spent. If you’re seeking a true Nashville experience, this probably isn’t what you would want your first impression to be. But if you just want to get dressed up and see what it all’s about, you may just really enjoy it. But it wasn’t really our vibe. Happy eating friends 🥂

    We were hesitant to go due to the dress code. After deciding to actually make the reservations, and upon arrival, the hostess gave two of the ladies in the group a hard time about their wardrobe decision, and insisted they wear a jacket. The jacket they provided did not appear to be clean. Let's be clear, they were wearing exactly what the website stated, which was a tunic that covered the hips, and pants. One of the ladies had to be in Nashville all day, and had traveled from Hopkinsville. This was a really bad start to the evening, and if the couple from Hopkinsville had not traveled so far, we would have instantly left. WE WILL NOT GO BACK until the pretentious dress code is no longer a requirement, and neither will the other couples.

    We learned about House of Cards from a family member, and we are so glad we went! The experience was great! Great setting in a "secret" location through a non-descript door going into an elaborately decorated basement. The dress code was fun as everyone was dressed up and added to the experience. The food was delicious but very high priced (be prepared for sticker-shock), but overall is a good value for the evening experience. The photographer providing a complementary photo for each couple is a very nice and classy touch! After dinner you can enjoy very good magicians providing up-close magic involving you in the tricks. The evening ended with a formal magic show in their small theatre....again, a great and amazing performance!!! We are spreading the word to any of our friends who are planning to go to Nashville anytime soon. Keep up the good work!!!
