Chris Greene Review of Egypt Magic

Absolutely loved this place! It is a hidden Chicago gem which we found from a Thrillist YouTube video on Chicago's secret menu as we were visiting from the UK. I say a hidden gem because you would not realise it was there we ended up walking straight past it and then when we found the entrance it was another mystery to get in as it is disguised as a Laundromat, which is all part of the fun. Once in we were met with a friendly greet by staff who were really helpful and informative. We booked ourselves in for the music and magic show then settled down at the bar. The cloak room is complimentary which was also great. The venue decor and ambience is great and really adds to the experience. Erin our Mixologist was friendly, chatty and made great cocktails all while holding down the bar on his own but still provided prompt service. I really recommend the Amortintia#9. While in the bar we were entertained with Magic and Comedy by AJ who did a great job, he was funny and engaging. We sat down for the show and the views are good. We ordered the Goats Cheese Marinara, Potato Pancakes, Pork Belly Sliders and Fries which were all really good. The music and magic show was entertaining with bits of close up magic at your table. My only disappointment was the second Stage Magic slot only lasted 5 minutes as I was really enjoying it all. So in summary great staff, great food, great cocktails, great show... GREAT PLACE!
