Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on December 24, 2009From San Jose, CA

Many thanks from eBay inc. to King Creole Entertainment and Rick Torres for the fantastic Elvis Quickie present to one of our employees. It is a very well designed service with lots to offer. I was very impressed with the portable self contained sound system they used and the advanced technology that went into it. Incredible sound! He Designed it, and I told him he should market it! The performance was so much fun, and the songs he picked for me were very suitable for the occasion. We will definitely use the services again..

Wine Tasting PartyReviewed on May 12, 2013From Healdsburg, CA

Rick is an amazing performer. He has entertained at Alderbrook 2 years in a row for Passport to Dry Creek Valley which is our premiere wine event of the year. We saw hundreds of people on Sunday who came to see Rick again this year after his outstanding performance last year. He gave a 150% performance in the hot sun and everyone loved the show.

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on April 2, 2014From Paso Robles, CA

Rick was an Amazing Elvis! He totally looked the part & his voice was spot on. He never left character & was very professional. He kept me up to date on all aspects of his performance & his website was very easy to manuver through. He had all the different outfits you could ever want to choose from & our whole party was very impressed. The best part was seeing the look of surprise on my wifes face as he came into the room vocals blazing. It was a great surprise party & he really helped make her 50th birthday memorable. I would freely recommend Rick to anyone seeking an Elvis impersonator whose show realy delivers!! Thanks again Rick for all you did and then some!

Corporate FunctionReviewed on August 19, 2013From Lodi, CA

Rick performed at our annual Company Appreciation Picnic. I love the fact that he allowed us to determine the length of time to sing and length of time for meet and greet. We ended up wanting him to sing more songs than originally planned and he had no issues at all. We all loved his pink Cadillac, very nice!! Even my 4 year old wanted to watch him and got mad when someone stood in his way. Definitely one of the best entertainers we have had. I would recommend him to all, and if we want Elvis again, I would definitely ask Rick to come back. Thank you Rick for a great night! Calva Products

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on October 1, 2012From San Leandro, CA

What do you give a 75 year old who has it all? A flash from her youth, Elvis! I've seen Rick perform at another birthday party and was so impressed that we sought him out for my mother's 75th birthday. Rick is a true professional from start to finish. He answers phone calls and emails immediately and he has a comprehensive website which makes costume and song choices very easy. Yes, you get to pick the costume he will wear and the songs he will sing. Rick is very good at what he does and it is apparent that he has been doing it for a long time, his performance was realistic and very entertaining. Everyone enjoyed themselves, the pink Cadi was the icing on the cake!

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on June 5, 2013From San Jose, CA

Rick Torres was absolutely great to work with and is a great entertainer. He was very friendly, cooperative and proactive with all the booking details and even allowed me to make last-minute changes to the song list. His website contains all the information that you need to make a complete show package... songs, outfits, give-aways, feedback, pictures, and videos. This guy is very thorough and professional. Rick knocked the socks off of everyone at my mom's birthday party. I totally recommend him to anyone and would enjoy hiring him again. He is truly the Bay-Area's best Elvis entertainer, if not the best in the country! Rick Rocks!

Community EventReviewed on February 17, 2014From Pinole, CA

Rick Torres or Elvis was the greatest Impersonator I've ever seen, He was on time, sang great and took pictures with our residents which was very important to our community. his memorable performance will forever be with us, we also plan on hiring him any time we need Elvis to " be in the building". Thank you again Rick for a great time. My staff thanks you as well. TIM.

Anniversary PartyReviewed on September 18, 2013From San Francisco, CA

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on February 19, 2013From San Francisco, CA

My birthday party for an 80 year old began with my theme of music throughout his years. I hired a pianist to play music from the 30s and 40s, then after dinner Elvis sang. I hired a Marilyn Monroe impersonator for the 60s to sing the iconic Happy Birthday. I had written to the White House to send Birthday Greetings and asked Elvis to present it to the birthday boy and thank him for his service to our country. The letter didn't come until 2 hours!!! before Elvis sang. He handed the birthday boy his letter and sang America and Danny Boy. There wasn't a dry eye in the place. Elvis was the best, most accommodating and talented person I could have asked for.

Christmas PartyReviewed on December 24, 2013From Colusa, CA

Rick Torres exceeded my expectations on every level! Rick was truly a class act and was so well prepared for our surprise guests with names, autographed scarves and glasses. His voice, movements, costume and the way he worked the crowd was the best! I appreciate his continued contact and update on the event and he was cool with my making some changes even up to the day before our party! He was wonderful, his assistant was wonderful and of course the pink Cadillac was simply WOW! I will book Rick again ???

Christmas PartyReviewed on December 20, 2013From Pacifica, CA

Rick is as good as Elivs' get! I have utilized Rick twice now & will be booking again as they're "asking" for him! This performance was a surprise for our club and Rick's performance was top notch! I scanned the crowd of 52 faces & there was so much happiness! I received a call the following day and I will end with the message because "this is what it's all about!" --"Member "X" has been going through a lot - selling her home & moving into assisted living, slowing down, depressed... While driving home she couldn't stop talking about Elvis, smiling, singing his songs and everyone in the car felt like she was visited by Santa!" Thanks again Rick!

Private PartyReviewed on July 4, 2011From Mountain View, CA

Elvis brought down the house. He was open to our needs, anxious to accommodate us and willing to help with last minute requests. Having him here was a pleasure, he will be invited back at the earliest opportunity. He made the effort to re-invent himself to please the particular theme of the event.(Hawaiian Elvis)He did it with great style! We thank him! The pink caddy & ukulele were a great touch! Thank you, Elvis We look forward to seeing you in the future, Amy & Staff

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on August 16, 2011From Concord, CA

It takes a lot to render my husband speechless but when Rick/Elvis walked into his 60th birthday party my husband's jaw dropped wide open. Later, he told me that Rick looked & sounded exactly like Elvis did when he saw him in Las Vegas in 1972. He just couldn't believe that Elvis was singing in our back yard. The experience exceeded my expectations. Rick is very talented, very professional, and an absolute pleasure to work with. He incorporated some personal info into his act to make it special for my husband. Rick puts a lot of love, thought, and energy into his performance. Rick's website is nice but HE'S AMAZING IN PERSON! Thank you,Rick. Thank you very much!

FundraiserReviewed on November 11, 2013From Concord, CA

Rick Torres did a fantastic job at our event. He is very accommodating to see your needs are fulfilled. He makes lots of suggestions and he allowed us to raffle off a cruise in his pink caddy for a few of our guests as an added fundraiser for our event. He is as nice in person as he is on the phone. Very personable. I would recommend to anyone out there who is looking for the real deal impersonator to hire Rick. He will not let you down. Your guests will all be left with big smiles on your faces. You can't go wrong with Rick Torres as your entertainer. He lives up to his name "#1 Elvis Entertainer of the Year".

Anniversary PartyReviewed on July 10, 2010From San Jose, CA

Rick is the BEST-definitely added that "WOW" factor to 2 events: a surprise 50th bday for a teacher at a school fundraiser (Mar'10) & at my in-laws' 50th wedding anniversary (Jul'10). Loved how he renewed their wedding vows in Elvis-Vegas style. Everything on the website0 videos, audio clips, Elvis outfits, cool pink Cadillac, picture-taking w/guests was nothing short but first rate. His staff was awesome. We had a great time, his performances were awesome, and our guests thoroughly enjoyed him.

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on April 17, 2012From Fremont, CA

This is the 4th time we haved used Rick for a special event. Each time he has made it even more personal than before. His likeness and music truly honors the Great Elvis Presley. His style is so unique and breath taking. He takes the time to honor the person he is there for and yet he includes the whole audience. Even the younger children enjoy his performances. I am certain the next family event we have we will keep him in mind. Rick has a geniune heart and you can tell through his performance he truly loves what he does. That is hard to find in a person. I want to say a special 'Thank You' to Rick from my heart for making it so special. God Bless, Susan Napier

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on January 30, 2013From San Jose, CA

Rick and Bobbi are Number 1. I have seen him at a few other events and loved him. I hired him to renew my brother (who just came home from Afghanistan) and sister in laws vows. Rick nailed it. He accommodated every single request and more. I let Rick come up with the songs and costume (normally you pick this)again he nailed it!! Rick gave us so much more than what we paid for, He is a true entertainer. His performance was fantastic. Everyone loved it, I was told by my guests how great of a time they had and what a show!! Everyone was pleased. He does not cut corners or time. He stayed and took pictures with every single guest that wanted pics. I will hire them again!

Nursing Home EventReviewed on July 5, 2013From Daly City, CA

Hiring entertainment is not new to me however I have never worked with someone so personable, accommodating; a true Professional! It is obvious that he is passionate about his performance and strives to go beyond expectations by "bringing so many of my guest back in time!" Of my 500+ guest, Elvis was their era and so many claimed he was "Elvis!" I look forward to working with him again soon, with the many inquiries I received for his contact and and my recommendation to family/friends I hope he'll be available! Elvis: "We'll" remember you....

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on June 14, 2010From Fremont, CA

My family can't stop talking about how AWESOME Rick's performance was and my sister tells me it's the best gift she ever got! There was so much excitement when Rick came in and surprised everyone. He has a fantastic voice and crazy Elvis moves - we were very impressed that he stayed in character the entire time. Just when we thought the show was over, we sent out for the pink cadillac cruise and had even MORE fun! Rick is a great sport, posing for zillions of pictures and giving hugs all around. Thank you, Rick, for an unforgettable performance!

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on February 15, 2013From Fresno, CA

He sure knows how to shake it. I Margaret, I was so happy on the best birthday show that Rick had for me on my (60th) , My family and I were so excited with the very best ELVIS Impersonator, he made everybody want to get up and dance with him. He had such a warm heart when he connected with me to set our date for the main event. Number one in my book, I can hardly wait for my next event to have Rick complete another wonderful show for us. He sure made me fell like being twenty-one again, thank you Rick.
