How to Plan the Perfect Date Night in Martinez
Looking for a date night that's a little out of the ordinary? A magic dinner show is one of the most memorable ways to spend an evening together — and downtown Martinez is the perfect backdrop.
Arrive a Little Early
Doors open before showtime, and the experience starts the moment you sit down. Arriving early means you can settle in, enjoy table-side close-up magic before the main stage show, and place your food and drink orders without rushing.
The Show Does the Talking
You don't need to plan conversation topics — the performers will give you plenty to talk about. From mind-reading to impossible sleight-of-hand, the show is designed to spark amazement and laughter all night long.
Ready to plan your evening? Check our show schedule and book your tickets in advance — our intimate theater seats only 30 to 40 guests per night, so dates do sell out.
Your evening at California Magic Club is more than just a magic show. It's an opportunity to step away from the ordinary and enjoy a unique experience filled with great food, laughter, and moments of wonder.
7:00 PM – Doors Open
Your magical evening begins when our doors open at 7:00 PM. Our intimate theater offers a welcoming atmosphere where you can settle in, order a beverage, and get ready for an evening of entertainment.
7:30 PM – Close-Up Magic
Before dinner, our talented close-up magicians visit guests at their tables, performing incredible magic just inches from your eyes. Cards, coins, and everyday objects become part of seemingly impossible moments. This is interactive magic at its best, and you may find yourself becoming part of the experience!
7:45 PM – A Three-Course Dinner
As the evening continues, you'll enjoy a delicious three-course meal prepared for our guests.
First Course – Salad
A fresh spring mix salad with dried cranberries and savory toppings, served with your choice of ranch or walnut raspberry vinaigrette dressing.
Main Course – Entrée
Our regular entrée features a combination of tender tri-tip and chicken, accompanied by seasoned rice and a medley of green beans and peppers.
We also offer alternative meal selections to accommodate dietary preferences:
Vegetarian: A flavorful combination of quinoa, brown rice, pesto, vegetables, and Parmesan cheese.
Vegan: Quinoa and brown rice with pesto and vegetables, prepared without Parmesan cheese.
Gluten-Free: Tri-tip, seasoned rice, and vegetables, with the salad prepared without the regular toppings. Our chicken is excluded because the marinade contains gluten.
Dessert
Finish your meal with a delightful assortment of sweet treats, including a cream puff, chocolate-covered strawberry, bite-sized cheesecake, and a s'more.
For guests requesting a gluten-free or vegan dessert, we offer an açaí bowl topped with fresh fruit.
Beer, wine, and a selection of cocktails are available for purchase throughout the dining portion of the evening.
9:00 PM – The Main Event
Following dinner, the lights dim and the spotlight turns to our featured magician.
Every weekend, California Magic Club welcomes talented performers who bring their own unique style of magic, comedy, and audience interaction to our stage.
Our intimate theater means there are no bad seats. You'll experience the magic up close, and don't be surprised if you find yourself invited to participate in the show!
Some performances will leave you laughing, others will leave you speechless, and many will have you wondering how something so impossible could happen right before your eyes.
An Evening to Remember
At California Magic Club, we believe the best magic isn't simply what happens on stage. It's the laughter shared around the table, the look of amazement on someone's face, and the memories you'll take home.
Whether you're celebrating a birthday or anniversary, enjoying a date night, or simply looking for something different to do, our goal is to create an experience you'll remember long after the final curtain.
Come for the magic. Leave with the memories.
We look forward to welcoming you to California Magic Club!
