    Such a great magician and so kind/engaging with the littles who are infatuated by his talents!! His sweet fiancé is so kind too - they are a bright light in a darker world these days. My boys and myself met him in beautiful San Clemente a few years back and we've been following him ever since . Just this past week we saw him again creating magic and memories near the pier in San Clemente and it just was such a great suprise !!!

    Our reaction after a confounding magic trick.

    We booked Jack for our wedding cocktail hour, and it was a blast. Our guests loved him, and he added something unique to our celebration. He was very fun, entertaining, and talented. We're very happy and would book him again for a future event.

    Jack was INCREDIBLE. He came out for my best friends birthday so last minute and was so so kind we were all blown away by his tricks. He was the best part of all of our nights. Thank you Jack!!!

    Magic of Murdock outside show

    Jack Murdock, Murdock the Magician, performed at my birthday party last weekend. 75 guests from age 3 to 93 and he engaged with everyone. I hired him for both "walk around magic" where he performed to small groups of guests, and then a 30 minute show to the seated audience. He wowed everyone with his skill, a variety of magic including playing cards, balls, match books, money, scarves, ropes, and even a bear trap! Jack is so charming, likeable and agile. He's a 5 of 5, a 10 of 10, a 100 of 100.

    We hired Jack for a business anniversary dinner at a cocktail bar. Jack was very friendly and personable and walked around interacting with everyone, he was just a joy to have at the party. His magic was actually unbelievable. It's a totally different experience when a magician is doing tricks right in front of your face and you cannot for the life of you figure out how. I was skeptical we needed a magician for the party at all - but by the end of the night I was literally chasing Jack down to have him show people more of his tricks. 10/10 experience, would hire again in a second. Thank you so much Jack!

    What an amazing talent! He made our party a blast! Our guests were all talking about how great he was and how much fun he made it.

    I saw Jack's fantastic performance when I went to the Escondido Renaissance Fair. My brother and I were not only amazed by his magic, but also thoroughly entertained by his sense of humor!! Seriously this guy is so funny. He had us on the edge of our seats (or hay bales in this case) with his tricks and the crowd participation was great. I've never seen a magician use a bear trap or a straightjacket before!! I will definitely be booking him in the future for all my events!

    Absolute fantastic magician. Keep the audience engaged and on their toes the whole night. Wonderful performance.

    Jack is a fantastic entertainer. Super talented. He keeps his audience engaged. He's one of the nicest people I've ever met.

    Jack exceeded what I thought I would get by teaching me overall skills rather than one simple trick.

    Gibroni's Pizza is a Detroit-style pizza spot in San Clemente with a lively bar atmosphere and…read morestrong weekend energy. Pros: This place has a really good overall vibe half restaurant, half bar which makes it feel more like a night-out spot than just a pizza place. The atmosphere was fun and energetic, especially with live music starting around 7pm on the Saturday I went. Staff were friendly, and the bar side added a nice social element if you're just hanging out with drinks. The pizza itself is a Detroit-style deep dish, and I got the pepperoni with hot honey. The quality was solid cheesy, thick, and filling but a bit more oily than expected. Still, the flavor was good and it felt like a heavy, satisfying meal. The beer selection was also good and paired well with the food. Parking is actually a strong plus here. There's a dedicated lot for customers that's free, which makes things easy if you're able to get a spot. Cons: The biggest downside is the menu structure--you have to order full pizzas only, with no slices or half-and-half options. That makes it harder to try multiple flavors. I wanted to try the mushroom truffle pizza but couldn't without committing to a full pie. Price is also on the higher side at around $26 for four pieces. Verdict: Overall a really solid spot with great vibes, good drinks, and quality pizza. I'd definitely come back, especially to try the mushroom truffle pizza next time.

    After waiting an hour for 2 sandwiches I've decided my review consist on one word…read more Don't.
