The Prestige is a completely new and different experience. Guests to The Prestige first enter our lounge where the stately magnificence of our grand fireplace commands your attention. Once checked in at the bar and a cocktail secured, the room is dissected and it's unique décor and furnishings are discovered. This is your opportunity to catch some prestidigitation at the bar or consult ZOLTAR and hear him speak your fortune! You also begin to immerse yourself in the vintage and intriguing history of MAGIC. At your designated seating time, passage to our showroom is revealed and you enter a grand surrounding of magic history. Then enjoy a parlour style dinner experience that includes salad, choice of entrée and a dessert presentation that alone is worth coming to see.

How does someone purchase tickets?
Tickets may be purchased exclusively on this website (liveattheprestige.com)

Can reservations be made without buying tickets?
Unfortunately not. We are a box office that sells tickets to events. Seats are sold on a first come, first served basis and it is not fair for us to hold tickets when others are willing to pay. Tickets are non-refundable but are transferable with at least 48 hours notice.

Can you buy tickets at the door?
It never hurts to try. Sometimes all food options won’t be available at the last minute but we do our very best to accommodate everyone.

Is there a “Dress Code”?
No. The grandeur of our décor and the formality of our servers can be intimidating to some. This is not our intent. We do this so your experience is fun and unique but we are casual people.

Is there a group rate?
In our Grand Dining Chamber, private groups (single purchase transaction) of 42 or more receive a discount. Call our customer service for details 916-293-9000.

Are gift certificates available?
Absolutely! Buy more than ten and receive a discount from the face value. The more you buy the better the discount.

Are gratuities expected?
Servers are compensated for their time and they do share the evenings gratuities collectively. For this reason we ask that you are generous with your gratuity for the evening. We are however aware that large groups seldom tip individually and are often the most demanding of the servers. It is also our experience that because the purchase is completed days if not weeks or months in advance that appropriate gratuities are overlooked at the time of the performance. As is standard in the hospitality industry, especially post-Covid, a gratuity is added to all sales at the time the reservation is made. If at the conclusion of your event you feel our service did not meet your expectation please contact customer service so we can rectify any concern.
