    I submitted a request through Yelp to find face painters and David responded quickly. The…read moreinformation and additional services sealed the deal. Upon arrival, set up was easy, prepared, and early. Super friendly service offered but even better was the face painting! The art on faces was so good and was completed in an efficient time to move multiple people for the large event. I would highly recommend this company and support this local business.

    I would not recommend Magic by David based on my experience…read more When I first spoke with him about a month before the event, he quoted $300 for the magic show and mentioned an additional $75 for balloon twisting and face painting. I confirmed the $300 and told him I would decide later about the add-ons. He also asked for a $27 booking fee, assuring me that it would be deducted from the total amount. About three weeks later, I called to inform him that I did not want the add-ons. He insisted that I must take them, saying that his assistant would be present for the entire duration and that the package could not be changed. Since the difference was $75, I agreed. He mentioned that with taxes, the total would be $396,--which he had never mentioned before that their will be tax--and requested that payment be made in cash, Cash App or via Venmo, which I found unusual. On the day of the birthday party, as soon as he arrived, he demanded $396 before bringing in his setup. I reminded him that I had already paid a $27 booking fee, but he refused to deduct it, saying that the Booking fee was separate. I ended up paying the full $396 anyway. He had promised a one-hour interactive show to keep all the kids engaged. However, the magic show lasted only about 40 minutes, and the face painter stopped after 30 minutes, leaving several kids disappointed. Altogether, the entire performance was over in less than 40 minutes, far short of what was promised.I've attended several other birthday parties with magicians, and they always allowed all the kids to touch the animals. However, this magician only let the birthday girl and her sister touch the animals, which made other kids unhappy. Additionally, I noticed unprofessional behavior. The tissue roll I had refilled in the morning went missing, and I later saw it with the magician. After the event, it vanished (the magician took it away with him). He was also seen peeking into the children's gifts, even holding one of the return gifts and curiously looking inside, which made me uncomfortable. Overall, this experience was very disappointing. The service was unprofessional, misleading, and not worth the amount charged. I would strongly advise others not to hire Magic by David for their events.

    I came to see Kerwin Claiborne's show and his performance was good, but everything about this…read moreestablishment has gone downhill since new management took over. When we arrived there was an elderly lady at the door scanning tickets. She looked confused about what her role was and the line was beginning to back up. We finally sat down to enjoy the night. We were told we had to place a 2 item minimum order from the restaurant/bar menu. You are required to pay up front for your order. With 30 mins left into the show, we/patrons still had not received our food but the owners of the club had a table at the front with their family and friends, all of them at the table had their food. They went back into the kitchen and got it themselves and comes out flaunting it in front of the customers. I found this to be distasteful and down right rude. How dare you eat in front of your paying customers? Then management told everyone that they will get a full refund for the food that was purchased and to give it up to 10 days to process. The show was on August 31st my food bill was $50.68 (8 wings, 8 shrimp, fries, Pepsi). I looked at my credit card statement and on September 3, 2024, I was charged $72.73. What a bunch of crooks. How dare you over charge my card and for food that I did not get. I will be having my Bank reverse this TODAY! Until they get new management or someone better, it will be a while before I step foot into this place.

    The drinks are always good. They offer a variety of entertainment for the Columbia area. Service…read morecan be hit or miss, depending on the capacity of the venue. I usually have great experience and visit quite frequently. Their is a two item minimum purchase for each guest. The food is decent for this type of business. Great for date night, girls night and a group of outing. Check their website often for show availability and pricing
