Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on June 21, 2008•From Paramount, CA
Phil Van Tee was awsome. He perfomance is all my guests keep talking about. His skills and personality are the best and if you want a great magician that does well with all age groups, he is your man!
If I ever had to recommend a magician or entertainment for any function his name would be the first to come to mind.
Phil is great and I am glad I hired him for my daughter Sweet 16.
Phil....you the best!!!!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on April 14, 2007•From Woodland Hills, CA
Phil is a phenomenal performer. He had everyone enthralled with his sleight of hand and the lead-in stories really held the kids attention. The show appealed equally to adults and children (it was an 8 year old's birthday party), even my 4 year old son was fascinated. I am looking forward to the next birthday party when I can hire Phil again. He payed special attention to the birthday boy and even taught him a couple of tricks to practice. Overall, he helped me have a successful party for my son.

Phil VanTee was amazing! He was so personable and easy to work with. He was kind, prompt, and his talent was wonderful. My 40 teenage students LOVED his performance. They were amazed and amused. I will have him back every year if he'll come!!!! Thank you, Phil.
Wedding•Reviewed on October 27, 2007•From Monterey Park, CA
Phil was wonderful! My husband and I did not have to tell him what to do very much. When guests were arriving and waiting, Phil entertained them from table to table and did a great job. The kids loved him! My husband and I are very satisfied with his service and highly recommend him to be a part of anyone's wedding. Thank you so much Phil for all your hard work!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on May 19, 2007•From Rancho Santa Margarita, CA
Phil Van Tee went out of his way to make our event a success. His combination of comedy and magic was a huge hit. Phil is very personable and a very likeable guy in addition to his amazing sleight of hand. His communication was great prior to the event and he was very flexible with his time. He even invited us up to the Magic Castle in Hollywood to see him perform the week before our event. We really enjoyed the experience. Phil is a 10+ and you could not go wrong hiring him for your event. Highly, highly recommended. We hope to see him again sometime soon.

Phil did a wonderful job for our school fundraiser. He was professional, accomodating, and very engaging. The entire audience, from pre-schoolers to grandmothers, were delighted with his many tricks and illusions. His humor also kept the adults well entertained. A great time was had by one and all!
Community Event•Reviewed on October 19, 2008•From West Hills, CA
Phil Van Tee was wonderful. He arrived early and circulated around doing small tricks with the children and their parents, telling stories. During the show he had everyone's attention from 2 to 82. We all had a great time and enjoyed every minute! There were lots of very happy faces. If we ever need a magician again it will be Phil Van Tee that we call. A wonderful evening.
Awards Night Party•Reviewed on February 1, 2010•From Los Angeles, CA
Phil was very professional, on time, and extremely accomodating to our time schedule. He required very little direction from me which I appreciated since I had to run the event. During the cocktail hour he worked the crowd, doing slight of hand tricks and being quite funny, too.
We enjoyed having him and I wished I could have had him do more but our event went a bit overtime.
I would use him again and/or recommend him highly.
Corporate Function•Reviewed on June 1, 2011•From Lake Forest, CA
We hired El Ropo! to perform for 130 people at our employee luncheon. While arranging the event, El Ropo was very professional, accomodating and a pleasure to work with. Our employees loved his performance. Everyone laughed and had a great time. As the event coordinator, I've asked our employees for feedback and there has been not one negative comment... They loved El Ropo! Many of them are still asking "How'd he do that"? Thank you El Ropo for an hour escape from our work!
Holiday Party•Reviewed on December 23, 2011•From Huntington Beach, CA
Phil showed up ON TIME, and spent the first hour of our event walking around from table to table entertaining our guests individually. According to feedback from my co-workers he did an AMAZING job, and really kept everyone entertained.
After dinner we did a show involving everyone, Phil was amazing! He was hilarious, and talented, and everyone is still asking me if he showed me how he did his tricks! I highly recommend him for an event, our party was adult oriented and he did a great job. Everyone is still ranting and raving about how it was a great party, and they don't know how we will top it next year.
Thank you Phil! You were amazing.
Community Event•Reviewed on September 28, 2009•From Costa Mesa, CA
Phil was amazing from start to finish! And when I mean from start to finish, I mean from the start of booking, to the performance, and the follow up! He made sure to call me every step of the way so I wouldn't forget something.
Our organization is a tough crowd and to be quite honest, I was slightly worried at the beginning of Phil's performance, but by the end of his performance our whole club was laughing and praising him for his amzing magic!
Go Phil!!! The Kiwanis Club of Huntington Beach was absolutely proud and honored to have you perform for our 2009 Installation dinner!
