text: I had been planning to go to House of Tricks for quite some time, but when I finally did I was very disappointed. As a general restaurant I'd probably give it 3 stars, but the price range demands higher expectations. The service seemed very unprofessional, our server didn't know anything about the dishes or wines. I ordered a tenderloin cooked medium-rare and it came out medium-well. In addition, the quality of the meat was definitely below par for a $35+ steak.
