Mystique Dining of La Jolla 915 Pearl Street, San Diego, CA 92037

"I’ve been a few times and every time the magic has been incredible! That being said you have to prepare yourself for cheesy night and a long dinner. They added some more menu items and this time I had the scallops which were good and but the prime rib is very rare and not that flavorful. The mushroom bourguignon was good. The salad was nice and I liked the strawberry shortcake dessert. The dinner is about 615-745 then the magic is about an hour. The magic was amazing this time as it always has been. It’s just a very intimate setting which can be great, or if there’s some weirdos it can be a bit awkward. Very fun to go as a group and it would be great to buy the whole place out."

"If you need a good place to celebrate or just something to do throughout the week, I highly recommend Mystique. The staff was wonderful and attentive, the food was exceptional. I had read some unfavorable reviews about the food so had my expectations low and was blown away by the care and detail in each dish! We had a fun crowd celebrating various things and the Magician was phenomenal. Almost everyone got a chance to participate in his act and his skills were top notch. He even sat with us for dinner (uncommon) but was a nice touch to have light conversation during dinner before the show. Be prepared for casual conversation with your neighbors if sitting at the middle table. I’ll definitely go back next time I am in town."

"Such an incredible, immersive, delicious experience. So much more than just a five course meal! Mystique is truly magical and memorable from the moment you walk in the door. The food was delicious... the rich crab cake, fresh salad, palate-cleansing sorbet, and some of the best prime rib I've I had in years - capped off by a delicious desert. And then... the magic!! Mystique features new world-renowned magicians and themed shows, and the featured performer changes every few weeks. Our magician was globally recognized and has won several awards. He was was charming, funny and incredibly talented. I still have NO IDEA how he did it... what a fantastic evening. We will be back!!!"

"I recently visited the Mystique for their magical dining experience. It was a really great time. It was intimate, unique, and well done. The food was delicious and the magician was funny and professional. This is a great date night or evening for taking someone for a special occasion. Make sure to make reservations in advance. Mainly all the seats had a fine view. There is a small wine bar you can drink at in front before the experience starts as well. Parking wasn’t too bad either but I’d go a little earlier than the scheduled time."

"Alright Everyone! If you're looking for an amazing dinner and a show, this is the place to go! We had an amazing time for the hubby's birthday! The food was great! If you have any food allergies you can note it when you make reservations and they take your food allergies very seriously. I'm lactose intolerant and they were very careful not to give me anything with lactose. I appreciated very much that they took it seriously. The food tasted great! I'm a pretty picky eater and enjoyed all of the food they served. Also omg the show was amazing! It was George Tovar's first night at the Mystique and he was phenomenal!!!! He was absolutely hilarious and made it entertaining the entire night! His magic was amazing, he had a great show and he was so entertaining! The website did say they discouraged kids under 8. I brought my kiddos, one under 8 and told them to be on their best behavior. George was awesome and incorporated them into the magic show. But honestly it really isn't the place to take younger kiddos. Tip: if you want to upgrade to the tomahawk steak, you do so when you make your reservations."
