Feedback
- Wow! Rick by far exceeded my expectations! All 25 guest at the party loved him! Rick gave us his all....the whole Elvis experience...we were all transported to another time and enjoyed every song and every minute of it. Rick sang, danced and mingled with the crowd...always in character...we couldn't have ask for anything more. The entire family is still talking about him this morning and so are all the guest that were at the party. He was the highlight of our day! Loved him! We are now his number one fan and will be following his career closely. Thank you so much. Linda and Tom Burkett, Mountain House, CA. -- Linda B, Tracy, CA, 1/14/2012
- 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! -- Rhonda G, Concord, CA, 8/14/2011
- We hired Rick Torres to perform wedding ceremonies in the Why Wait Chapel as part of the radio promotions at 2 of our Rascal Flatts/Flatts Fest tour stops (9/15/2011 Sacramento and 9/16/2011 Mountain View). He was very easy to work with and his performances were fantastic. We highly recommend him for any event. Check out his website for photos of him with Rascal Flatts! -- Kristy R, Wheatland, CA, 9/15/2011
- I used Rick Torres 4 times, and it seems every time he out does himself, I would recommend Rick in a heart beat, he is the best. He just did our wedding vow renewals, and the Pink Caddy Cruise, and it was AMAZING.We love you Rick and will use you again.Love Frank and Renee Crisci. -- Renee C, Pacifica, CA, 7/30/2011
- I can't say enough about Rick Torres. He was very accommodating and agreed to do a last minute request to perform at my parents 55th wedding anniversary party. He was very professional and made the transaction so easy. He was so on top of every detail, punctual, and overall a joy to meet. I have always been a big Eivis fan and his performance as an impersonator is; I'm pretty sure the best I've ever seen. His appearance was such a surprise to my parents and the guest. I could see through my own eyes and much feedback that they all thoroughly enjoyed it. I would say this made the party. Rick & his assistant were the best! My only regret is that we didn' video tape it. -- Lisa G, Newark, CA, 5/6/2011
- Rick was very "FRIENDLY", "EASY TO WORK WITH" and "ACCOMMODATING". He was "THE BEST ELVIS ENTERTAINER" I had ever seen!!! "VERY AUTHENTIC"!!! Elvis was definitely "ALIVE" & "IN THE BUILDING" once again! :) I would "ABSOLUTELY" hire him "AGAIN" & "AGAIN"...My friends & Family all "LOVED HIM". They told me They were next in hiring him for their next event!
Rick Torres made my mom's 60th. Birthday "EXTRA SPECIAL WITH LOVE AND ENTERTAINMENT"! A day my mom will soon not forget! You can tell he loves what he does and makes sure your event is "PHENOMENAL" & "EXTRA SPECIAL"!
The Pink Caddy Cruise was a "HUGE HIT" with everyone! It was the "BEST EXPERIENCE EVER"!
-- Christina P, Richmond, CA, 10/15/2011
- Rick Torres, aka, "Elvis", is a loaded pistol! He explodes into the room and rocks it from foundation to ceiling. Comments from guests include: "money well spent", "Elvis was great", "I just loved Elvis and will never forget him", and so forth. Rick is punctual, courteous, and delivers exactly as promised. Costume, car (ride was lots of fun), accessories are fantastic replicas, and Rick's moves are just like the King's. Rick dances while singing effortlessly (guests loved his kicks). Rick's voice is very similar to Elvis. If Elvis were alive, I believe he would give Rick two thumbs up. Thank you, Rick, for a night OJ and guests will never forget. XOXOXO -- Carol O, Salinas, CA, 11/12/2011
- Best wedding ever. He stayed in character the entire time, did exactly as we asked, and let me write my own ceremony.
The timing for the processional got messed up (was the wedding party's fault) and he fixed it on the spot! did a fantastic job and no one even noticed. Everyone said it was the most fun they had ever had at a wedding hands down. Not a single person got bored! everyone had a blast.
He happily waited after the ceremony for us to take pictures before he gave us a ride in his caddy back to the reception. He was happy to do anything I requested. VERY much worth every penny. -- Kimberly N, Rohnert Park, CA, 10/22/2011
- Rick Torres made our The Sports Club/LA - San Francisco's 10Year Anniversary Celebration memorable by entertaining our Members with his talented singing, dancing and posing for photos skills. Rick definitely deserves the title of "Bay Area's #1 Elvis Impersonator" for his 5star service! -- Thiana M, San Francisco, CA, 10/20/2011
- So much fun!! Incredibly authentic, the pink Cadillac which provides the mobile sound system enables any type of venue from ordinary citizen -b day to corporate level events to enjoy Elvis. Rick Torres's impersonation is so realistic we were croonig. I felt like a littl kid on Santa's lap, you knew it wasn't him but you couldn't help but believe it was really him . It was such a thrill to hear him sing!!!!. I highly recommend him. The party will be forever remembered and his show is GREAT for the entire family 9 to 90 yrs. Long Live Elvis
Sincerely,
Marie Kay -- Ann K, San Mateo, CA, 7/24/2011
- Rick was great from the first call to the moment he drove away in his fabulous pink caddy! Totally professional, upfront, accommodating, and most of all ENTERTAINING!!! He helped me pick songs, and I loved the selection of tunes AND wardrobe outfits. He was able to squeeze our party into an already booked up Saturday, he drove all the way out to the boonies where we were camped out for my boyfriend Jim's birthday. It was a surprise none of us will ever forget! Jim still shows off his souvenir scarf whenever he gets a chance. Once Elvis started singing people from all the other campsites came to watch and take pictures with him. Book him NOW!!! You won't regret it =) -- Amber A, Morgan Hill, CA, 7/30/2011
- Wow! I've never seen my parents have so much fun together. For their 50th Anniversary my Mother wanted to renew their wedding vowels with Elvis, but had no idea that they could do it in the Bay Area. Thanks to your help and planning, I was able to surprise them with an Elvis show just as good as Las Vegas. Rick's performance was spot on talent for Elvis, the props were even Las Vegas quality (we all thought Rick was lip syncing!). All the details of his performance, including the beautiful scarfs and Elvis sunglasses, made for a very memerable evening. You Rock, Rick! -- Joe M, Martinez, CA, 7/20/2011
- Rick Torres was a top notch professional from the first phone call to setup the details until the moment Elvis drove away. Even my critical uncle James was extremely impressed with the performance. Uncle James said "Elvis really gave it 110%, and far exceeded my expectations" As for the rest of the guests, we were all thoroughly impressed with his authentic and enthusiastic performance and were crushing on Elvis the rest of the day!!! My grandma (the guest of honor) will be talking about this for the rest of her life, and we all have such a memorable and personal memory to share for generations. I hope we have the opportunity to see Elvis again :)
-- Julie W, Martinez, CA, 9/24/2011
- Rick was awesome. We all had a great time. Rick's professionalism is 5. Rick handled my request perfect 5. I think Rick has a great profession-talent 5. I would recommend Rick & his assistant (I think her name was Bonnie) to anyone, great people 5. Over all satisfaction if Elvis was still alive I think he would have competition. Loved watching Rick perform 5.Thank you Rick and hope to see you again. My mom really loved it!! Regards Debbie Broscoe -- Debbie B, Visalia, CA, 11/5/2011
- Rick is fabulous!!! He met and exceeded my spectations. He is very proffesional, friendly and awesome at what he does. What I loved about him is that he takes the time to take pictures with all his crazy fans and makes sure everyone is having a good time. After he left, he was still the "talk of the night". Oh and his pink caddy is sooo cute!!! Thank You so much Rick!!! -- Lesley A, Sunnyvale, CA, 10/23/2011
- I would highly recommend Rick Torres to anyone thinking of having Elvis entertain a gathering. We had him come to a birthday party last year and were so impressed that we had him come this year to a wedding rehearsal dinner. He is FANTASTIC! He not only looks like Elvis, he sings like Elvis and has all the Elvis moves. He was very accommodating, even being flexible on his time of arrival up to the day of the event. He goes above and beyond and definitely gives you your moneys worth. We love Rick Torres aka - Elvis! -- Nancy M, San Martin, CA, 11/3/2011
- Wow! What a great Elvis surprise for Grandma Roma's 90th. Rick delivered the goods and more. His performance was top notch. He worked really hard to make it super special for the birthday girl. He was patient with the youngsters in the group (2 enthralled seven year old girls), and overall provided an experience that will always be remembered. We loved the pink caddy, the rings, the scarf, the authentic outfit, and Rick's generous spirit. It was very clear that he loved doing this. He can sing too! -- John M, Santa Cruz, CA, 9/10/2011
- Rick was wonderful from the time I first spoke to him to the end of his performance. He really made our friend's birthday very special. She said she will never forget it. Rick is a professional through and through. I would highly recommend him for your next party. I would definitely hire him again in a hire beat. Thank you, thank you, thank you! -- Maryann T, Santa Clara, CA, 10/22/2011
- Rick was phenomenal! He arrived ahead of schedule just to make sure everything was in place. And his performance was an additional highlight to my parents' double 70th surprise birthday party! He knew how to work the crowd (both young and old) and he was quite the entertainer. If our party wasn't on such a tight schedule, we probably would have hired him for a longer set. Kudos to Rick...nice job! -- Gwynn V, San Jose, CA, 9/24/2011
- I hired Rick to perform at my sister's 50th Birthday party which there were 50 guests at the party. This was the second time I hired him ( he performed at the 8th graders' dinner dance last year) and like the first time, Rick's performance was amazing and I got lots of compliments on how professional he was and they liked his style. I highly recommend Rick. He's a good performer, very professional and he is easy to work with. Thanks Rick for making my sister's party a memorable one. -- Cristela B, Santa Clara, CA, 7/17/2011
- My Sister is a disabled adult and I hired Rick for her 70th Birthday Party. I like the idea of picking out which outfit he wears and the songs he will sing. The ride in the Pink Cadillac was icing on the cake. Even the two older gals, 92 and 94, thoroughly enjoyed the performance. The 92 year old booked him for her 93 birthday party. All the women loved him and even the men were impressed. Rick sang to every woman but of course his main focus was on the Birthday Girl who was enthralled with the songs and attention he gave her.
Rick is a very talented Elvis impersonator. Good voice and excellent moves. We thought Elvis was in the room.
-- Judy C, Castro Valley, CA, 2/19/2011
- Rick Torres was stellar. This venue was a Sock & Paws Hop for canine freestyle dancing. Rick was warm and loving with the animals. We have many pictures of the dogs giving him kisses. Dance teams all had a wonderful nostalgic evening. The winners of the raffle for the ride in the Pink Caddy were all smiles. Very memorable thanks Rick. -- Vange L, Napa, CA, 9/1/2011
- Hi. Great performance and got everyone involved. Took pictures with everyone and made sure that everyone had a great time. Wonderful to have at a party. -- Sophia C, San Francisco, CA, 3/20/2011
- We hired Rick as Elvis for the last dance performance of our wedding. Rick came on time, he looked really good, his outfit was awesome and looked just like the real King! We didn't tell anyone he was coming so everyone was really surprised when Elvis walked in and immediatly started singing and performing. He paid special attention to all of the ladies in our wedding who were really swooning! Rick really sings like Elvis too. It was amazing. Afterwards, Rick stuck around for photos with everyone. We will for sure be hiring him for our anniversary weddings! See you then, Elvis in your pink Cadillac! El Rey Vive!
Irma & Tom -- Irma Z, Mountain View, CA, 4/30/2011
- The town will always remember the free Elvis concert at the Settler cabin in Historic San Juan Batista. Our wedding went from a 16 people quaint ceremony to about 40 with gathering town residence. Ricks Performance as well as his ability to perform a wedding ceremony were everything I read on his site. My wife found him on the internet and compared to other Entertainers there was no doubt he was the one. Very professional and easy to work with. His Pink Caddy was fantastic!
-- Bill C, San Juan Bautista, CA, 10/7/2011
- 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 -- Amy F, Mountain View, CA, 7/1/2011
- Rick was amazing! He was the hightlight of my boyfriend's entire birthday party (and there were alot of activities and entertainment including a live classic rock band so that really says it all!!) He showed is true professionalism when he had to call and let us know his pink caddy had broken down and would not be there. He more then accomodated us with lots of spiffs and extra songs. It was a fantastic evening! I would hire him again in a heart beat! Love him!! -- Cherie R, Los Gatos, CA, 8/20/2011
- The overall experience is VERY POSITIVE. Everyone had a good time and enjoyed the performance. I have no complaints. -- Dale D, Milpitas, CA, 10/8/2011
- Rick Torres far exceeded my expectations. He was fantastic. I will recommend him to all my friends & associates. The group he was performing for was thrilled by his performance and his charm. -- Randall J, San Jose, CA, 9/22/2011
- I have really enjoyed my encounter with Rick Torres he has been very accomdating and whenever I have called him or sent e-mail he has been very promt in getting back to me. He did an excellent job at the 75th Birthday Party of my friend was extremely liked by all the guests. He was funny, polite,charming and delivered more than what he promised. I would definitely use his services again when I need to. -- Sarna K, San Jose, CA, 8/6/2011
- A rating of 5 is NOT high enough....!!!!! Was COMPLETELY overwhelmed by how FANTASTIC Rick was!!! Seriously made my mom's 60th birthday celebration extra special. I have never seen her have so much fun! All the guests kept commenting how great he was and how fun it was to take pictures with him and the pink cadillac. Thanks again Rick!!! You ROCK....:) -- Cassie P, San Jose, CA, 12/18/2010
- This is the second time that Rick has performed for us once for my daughters 16th bday and our wedding (everyone attending said it was the funnest wedding they had been to) both time's have been outstanding, you think you are realy in the present's of the king him self. Rock on Rick. -- Michelle A, Mountain House, CA, 7/16/2011
- I've always dreamed of getting married by Elvis, so I was very excited to find Rick in the Bay Area!! I wish I could have seen and heard more of the music leading up to the ceremony, but what I could hear from outside and while we had our processional was AWESOME! Rick has such a great voice and great presence! I kept hearing from everyone that ours was the best wedding ceremony they'd ever been to. Rick did a fantastic job! -- Tracy C, Pleasanton, CA, 9/11/2010
- My husband and I hired Rick Torres as surprise entertainment at our wedding. He was fantastic, lively and energetic. Our guest were so surprised and kept telling us all night how much they thoroughly enjoyed his performance. Guests took pictures with him after he preformed along with his pink caddy. Rick exceeded all our expectations. He's very professional and easy to work with. I really appreciated that he also let my husband and I know where we could catch a performance of him before our big day, if we wanted preview. Rick allowed us to pick songs from his list, pick his outfit and our scarves were a nice touch that we got to personalize. It was all wonderful! -- Rachel H, Pleasanton, CA, 8/27/2011
- The Pink Caddy Concert show provided by Elvis Rick Torres was the coolest addition to the day. It's hard to believe it requires nothing but a performance area, and needed no power hookups - that was great! The setup took about 5 minutes from the time Rick showed up in his Caddy, to when he started performing. Incredible sound! He's the BEST Elvis, and I would recommend the Pink Caddy Concert and Rick Torres. -- Annie J, Diamond Springs, CA, 7/4/2011
- I've been a huge ELVIS fan and so is my family..like many other fans of ELVIS..I'm sure they at one time or another played songs for their kids. My daughter has been brought up on his music and watching him on DVD Concerts. For 21 years of ELVIS THIS and ELVIS THAT. I had a chance to bring the KING back alive for one special day...When Rick walked through the Doors as ELVIS..it was SHOW TIME..He was AWESOME!! He Had the Moves...Performed the Songs I requested to the tee..Interacted with the crowd..and Hung out with my family to answer questions and take Pics..When I ask my girlfreind to merry me..I want Rick to be there as ELVIS to bring it all home..T C B!! -- Steven S, San Jose, CA, 5/29/2011
- THE SHOW WAS FABULOUS. HE SPENT EXTRA TIME AFTERWARD DOING PICTURES AND TELLING STORIES. HE SEEMED TO REALLY WANT EVERYONE TO ENJOY THE EXPERIENCE AND I NEVER FELT HE WAS JUST A "QUICK IN AND QUICK OUT" PERSON. I WOULD ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND HIM TO OTHER PEOPLE. -- Stacey K, Palo Alto, CA, 5/20/2011
- Rick Torres was the best! He was so easy to talk to and accomodating and he was a awesome Elvis.. We had him for a 70th bday party for my mother-in-law and he was a hit. All the women were talking about him and how they felt like teenagers again! I would highly recommend him not only for his great talent and performance but also for his professionalism! Elvis you were great!! Thanks for everything! -- Natalie P, Stockton, CA, 5/21/2011
- Rick is an AMAZING Elvis Impersonator. I would highly recommend him for any event. He is professional, authentic and super entertaining. He is the best Elvis impersonator I have ever seen and has the moves and the talent to go along with it. He can have a crowd of people on their feet and cheering in no time. I would most definitely recommend him to others and will absolutely hire him again at my next event. -- Delicia N, Cupertino, CA, 6/8/2011
- Rick Torres was a big hit at our event. He is professional, courteous, accomodating and came very well prepared to wow our group.

I am very satisfied and would highly recommend him to perform at your event.

- My husband really likes Elvis's music and has since Elvis's beginnings. Rick was so authentic, was so like Elvis, very entertaining, appropriate for adults and children. he engaged all the guests, was great with picture taking.. the pink caddy was a plus....He deserves #1 Elvis impersonator everywhere. -- Joan L, Santa Cruz, CA, 6/25/2011
- Elvis (Rick) MADE our party! Everyone died at the end of the wedding when he came up on stage and told everyone to meet us out front to say goodbye. The pictures are PRICELESS!! I didn't even know that everyone was taking their own pictures with him before we came out. And even after he dropped us off at our hotel, Elvis did some singing and dancing right out front for the rest of the people arriving. Rick was so easy to deal with, right on time, super nice, and he has a HUGE range of outfits to choose from. He was one of the best decisions we made for the wedding! -- Laura C, San Francisco, CA, 4/30/2011
- It was a great experience!!!!!!!!!!!! Everyone loved him!!! You would of thought by everyones reaction to him performing that he was the actual Elvis! I would recommend him to everyone! He was a pleasure to work with. We will continue to use him in future events! -- Susie C, Lemoore, CA, 6/15/2011
- Rick was awsome!! He did a wonderful job for my mothers 60th bday party.. He had humor along with talent which was great. Kept us laughing ... My personal favorite, "Hey Hot Mama"... :) And we really enjoyed that he included everyone in the party.. Even the little ones! ;) Overall, he was Fantastic and worth every penny!! To see my moms face when he came in was priceless.. I would recommend him in a heartbeat.... Once again, Thanks Rick for the performance!! -- Rochelle L, Stockton, CA, 4/30/2011
- Rick Torres, the BEST impersonator for Elvis Presley. He was the highlight of my party. I called last minute and I was impressed that he accomodated me and made adjustment of the time, thanks to him otherwise my party would had been dry.
He was going to every guests'tables singing, took pictures with him with his pink Caddy, we had a Blasts!!! My hubby was very much entertained.
Very much worth it. -- Lina S, San Jose, CA, 4/23/2011
- Yay! My husband and I had so much fun!! Thanks for an entertaining ride in the pink cadillac!!! -- Veronica L, Palo Alto, CA, 4/29/2011
- It was magnificant! He was a great performer, he was always getting everyone involved, a little girl was crying and he took her for a seperate ride in the caddy. He stayed and hung out til he had to go because he came all the way up from santa clara that day. It rained very, very hard, his wipers broke the day before and he still drove up. Absolute professional, he even dance with a girl with downs syndrome, he picked her out of the crowd. He pays attention, he's #1 in my book. Well worth the money. -- Zeena H, Loomis, CA, 12/19/2010
- Rick Torres greatly exceeded our expectations. He is a wonderful entertainer and an outstanding professional. He actually sounds and moves like Elvis. His performance made everyone at our event very excited and happy. Rick if full of love, fun and happiness and his cheerfulness brought joy to everyone at our event!

- Elvis is back! For a short period of time we were able to re-live our past with songs,dancing and movements that only the king could do with grace.
Our guests at the party (over 120) enjoyed Rick immensely and he was very accomodating to the guests and their cameras. -- Elaine N, San Jose, CA, 9/10/2011

Thank you
Sharlene -- Sharlene P, Los Gatos, CA, 3/12/2011
- We had a BLAST with Rick at our party - it was a surprise for my mom & she was blown away. Rick was professional, courteous, and very accommodating. While Rick was preforming, a family member expressed concern that my mom was outside without shoes on, and another family member replied that it would only be a problem if she was actually touching that ground. Thanks, Rick, for making my mom float on air! -- Sioux V, Half Moon Bay, CA, 12/18/2010
- Our residents at The Forum Healthcare Center were very happy about his performance. They enjoy the show and thankful for the wonderful Mother's Day event performace by Elvis Presley a.k.a. Rick Torres. -- Jennifer G, Cupertino, CA, 5/8/2011

- I would have to say that having Rick Torres at my party made it a total sucess. He was very excellent at performing and got the crowd going .I would recommend him to anyone who ever needed an Elvis at their party ! -- Raylin M, Hayward, CA, 3/12/2011
- Rick understands audiences preferences and is so willing to accommodate those, as he did for our shy guest of honor. Also, his portable sound system is brilliant-- he's able to start immediately, go all over the performance area and be heard perfectly. Everyone loved him! Terrific! -- Francine R, San Francisco, CA, 3/30/2011
- I knew Rick was a pro when I saw his website - but he is a pro in more ways than a website can show. We were nervous, of course, about our wedding but he handled us like we were the only people in the world and he was there to make our day go as smoothly as possible. I have no hesitation about recommending Rick. I have complete confidence that he will make your wedding or event better than you are expecting. He has his music equipment all set up so he just shows up and makes it all happen seamlessly. Best Wishes to Rick and Thank You for making our wedding fun and a good memory for everybody who attended.
Sincerely, Michael & Suki -- Michael S, San Francisco, CA, 12/21/2010
- Rick was great... Singing, costume, pink cadi.. It was fabulous! The process was easy - I love the way you get to pick the costume, songs, etc. You can't go wrong when the experience is tailored to your choices. Way to go Rick... My husband said this was the best birthday party ever! Ever!
-- Tina B, Redwood City, CA, 3/12/2011
- Great performer. Uncanny as Elvis. Great interaction with audience. Arrived fully prepared with self-contained sound system. Client gets to choose which songs and costume he will wear. The costumes are very authentic replicas of those actually worn by Elvis. His spot-on performance made many ladies in the audience swoon. -- Liz P, San Jose, CA, 7/30/2010
- When Rick is performing, you are experiencing Elvis. His energy, talent and personality shine. I'll definitely be hiring him again, as will many of my coworkers. -- Diane L, Palo Alto, CA, 10/31/2011

- Hi,
Rick Torres was amazing! He made my Mother's 81st Birthday the best ever!!
Half of the neighborhood came out to watch. Our neighbors on the left were having a family get together and they went crazy when they saw him.
The Pink Cadillac was a nice touch, as were the blue suede shoes.
He also did this "Kick in the air thing that my sister's loved"
Thank you Rick.
Darla & Kevin Pietschker -- Darla P, San Jose, CA, 2/27/2010
- Rick and his assistant were awesome! Very professional, very accomodating, very talented! He took this birthday party to the extreme and everyone loved it! I can't thank him enough for making this such a wonderful experience. -- Barbara R, American Canyon, CA, 3/5/2011
- Rick Torres was the best! He was very personable w/my guests and demonstrated a lot of passion and high energy throughout his performance. Many guests commented favorably about his voice and costume.
Fried peanut butter and banana sandwiches were served by Aroma Restaurant and the birthday cake was shaped as a Gibson guitar which can be viewed at: www.flickr.com/photos/debbiedoescakes.net. The baker is a former Food Network bake-off participant. Rick stated these were the best he had ever seen and tasted at any Elvis themed event.
Overall, a fantastic birthday celebration thanks to Rick Torres! -- Glen W, Alameda, CA, 12/18/2010
- Rick was great! We had created our own difficult lyrics to some Elvis songs, and he went way out of his way to record them and make the event special. I hope to be able to hire him again! -- Barbara N, Oakland, CA, 11/9/2011
- Rick and his staff were outstanding to work with. He was very organized and professional in the preparations leading up to our event. His vocal skills and appearance were perfect and our guests were so excited to have "The King" attend our holiday party. His performance was THE highlight of our event and I would not hesitate to use his services again! -- Janine M, Foster City, CA, 12/10/2010
- We love Rick, I mean Elvis! Highly recommend him!

- My experience with Rick Torres was nothing short of fantastic! He was able to accomodate our party on less than a weeks notice and was pleasant to make plans with. Upon arriving, he lit up the birthday boy's face as well as his grandkids who were in awe of the singing and especially the cadillac ride. He was very great with kids and even extended his performance. He went above and beyond for a small family gathering and brought spark, and happiness, to everyone in the room. Thank you again Rick for a great experience, and the great talent! -- Julie G, Gilroy, CA, 11/14/2010
- Rick Torres rocks Elvis! No matter what the venue,He not only looks
the part but has an incredible self-contained amp system that nearly duplicates Elvis'sound! Most importantly, he is a man of his word who
in our experience arrived at our party on time, and made each and
every guest(even our dog) feel special. And he is versatile. Whether
it is a child's birthday party, a retirement party or a golden
anniversary, Rick makes it works. I highly recommend him and hope that you will choose Rick Torres-Elvis Impersonator for your next
special event. -- Linda H, Morgan Hill, CA, 9/12/2010
- He was simply FANTASTIC!!!! Because of some serious traffic problems he was quite late but couldn't have been nicer, more accommodating and generous with his time and "perks".
A true gentlemen - SO much fun - my guests got totally engaged with the music and dancing. This was a MEMORABLE, fun, crazy, wonderful evening and memory.
LOVE you Elvis (ie: Rick)
jaquie Bosch -- Jaquie B, Sonoma, CA, 7/18/2010
- Rick is truly the best Elvis Impersonator any of us has ever seen! He performed for our parents’ 50th Anniversary Party, and he worked the entire crowd with his impressive voice and awesome dancing throughout the show. He also held a wedding renewal ceremony for our parents during his performance, and gave them personalized scarves, gold Elvis sunglass, and a certificate! After the show, he posed for every photo request by our guests! Finally, he took our family for the pink Cadillac cruise! He is the best performer ever! -- Shinobu T, Los Gatos, CA, 7/3/2010
- 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. -- Sheila S, San Jose, CA, 7/3/2010
- Rick was a very professional and a very pleasant man besides the fact he was a great performer! I definately would hire him again and will let all my friends know how wonderful he was. Thank you so much Rick! -- Ellen C, Clayton, CA, 7/17/2010
- Hi Rick, So sorry I did not submit this back in April, but thank you for your recent email to remind me. Eddy's 45th Birthday party is still the talk around the table and you were the subject of many. We had a great time seeing you at the Petaluma parade, and again the buzz on the street was your performance! I kept telling people Yep. I know him! You're the Best Rick! -- Choissette K, Santa Rosa, CA, 4/22/2010
- Amazing talented Entertainer and what a great performance. Rick brought us all back 20 years to a time when we danced and sang with the most talented king of rock and roll. Rick entertained us for 2 hours singing,mingling. Faces were mesmerized! He not only was the best I have ever seen on stage, and I have seen many, but also how he really worked the crowd to get them involved.Rick Torres brought down the house. To anyone interested in hiring him if you want my opinion Please call if you need to speak with me. We will be using him for to big business events in 2010 and our dept. in charge will be calling for availability soon. Respectfully sent Gary Cockrell -- Gary C, Foster City, CA, 12/13/2009
- Rick Torres was one of our entertainers for Hot San Jose Nights. We got so much more than we hoped for with Rick! Great entertainer, great to work with, fun to have around, and very professional in every way! Rick Torres WAS Elvis! The crowd just loved him! Great costumes, great hair, great attitude. He really is a superstar and a one man party! He mixed with the crowd and greatly added to our event. If you are fortunate enough to get Rick for your next party, you will not be disappointed! You'll get more than you hoped for, too!
-- Mike H, San Jose, CA, 7/9/2010
- I have been working back and forth from here to the east coast and really have not had time but my Girlfriend loved your performance in April and she has wanted to call you about taking us for a pink caddy cruise to the wine country now that I will be here for a few months steadily. Do you do that?
Anyway you are the best and Hope to see you soon. Heard you were in town a few weeks age at a car show. Sorry we missed you. -- Marc B, Antioch, CA, 4/2/2010

Higher Rick Torres for your party, you will NOT regret it!!! -- Chrystal L, Santa Rosa, CA, 6/26/2010
- 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! -- Cristina H, Fremont, CA, 6/12/2010

The pink caddy was the best.I would definetly hire him again.
Sherry Arce -- Sherry A, Redwood City, CA, 6/19/2010
- Hello Rick,
The whole family really enjoyed your presence at our gathering. We could not have asked for a better performer. You did a fabulous job. Your pictures dont do you justice. You were much better looking in person by the way. Thank you again and we will definitely recommend you to anyone we possibly can. Take Care! Brenda
-- Brenda P, Modesto, CA, 2/27/2010
- We are still getting calls for his information from people who did not get his cards. He had a fun time with Rick who is without a doubt the best Elvis Impersonator any of us has ever seen. The Bay Areas number 1 Elvis impersonator is not broad enough!! He quite a bit more than that I think. A few of the guest go to Hot August Nights in Reno and they said he was much better than Elvis Impersonators they have seen there. -- Dania D, San Francisco, CA, 1/9/2010
- Rick Torres did an amazing job for our event at Courtside Cottages in Vacaville. He was personable with the residents and treated each one as if he was singing to them alone. I was impressed with his professionalism at all times, and how he accomodated our special requests with ease. Thank you Rick!!! Hope to see you next year!!
-- Mary Jo R, Vacaville, CA, 5/15/2010
- Rick Torres did a wonderful performance at our school 8th grade dinner dance. Everybody had a good time and I received numerous wonderful compliments from the students, parents and school staff how great he was. Rick even stayed after and posed for pictures. He was professional and flexible. I would definitely recommend Rick and would hire him again in the future. Thanks Rick! -- Cristela B, San Jose, CA, 6/3/2010
- Rick was spectacular!!! His Pink Caddy was really cool too!!! The wedding renewal was so special and everyone really loved the whole service. We wanted him to stay, but his public still needed him elsewhere, so he had to leave the building! He will be back as we are looking to have him again for my moms birthday. -- Michelle W, San Jose, CA, 2/20/2010
- This was the most fun at any party ever!!! The King was amazing and the pink cadillac was super!!! I'm so happy that Elvis is alive and well and lives in the Bay Area (and I have his phone number)!!! -- Marie P, Hollister, CA, 5/14/2010
- Rick, I mean Elvis, you were wonderful! Thank you so much. I will definitely keep you on the top of the list for future parties. You were a huge hit!! Thank you!!
Jeannie -- Jeannie W, Emerald Hills, CA, 3/13/2010
- I engaged Mr. Torres for my husband's birthday.
He was very entertaining and my guests and I had a wonderful time. -- Ellen K, San Jose, CA, 4/24/2010
- Bay areas incredable number 1 Elvis Rick and his over the top cool pink caddy were a hit! He was the buzz all over town when he went after day 1 to a local seafood restaurant to have a valentines dinner after 23 wedding renewals performed on Sat the 13th. His suits as well as himself were just so impressive! We are going to have him come up to do a Ultimate Elvis Tribute show in the summer. His voice is just beautiful, you just have to see him in person to really truly appreciate how good he is. -- Leighann L, Healdsburg, CA, 2/13/2010
- Make no mistake, this is Elvis! A great addition to our parade! -- Joe N, Petaluma, CA, 4/24/2010
- Oh My, yes it would be my honor to do this! Rick Torres performed to a capacity crowd of 400 attendees of our fundraiser event. The cheering during his performance was so loud it was almost deafening! Following his performance he posed for pictures in front of his Pink Cadillac which everyone just loved!! We are going to be working with Rick for two more performances this year which we hope will be just the beginning of many future events! He was beyond our expectations and all the ladies thought he was so good looking and looked like Elvis in many ways. -- Sheila S, Milpitas, CA, 3/6/2010
- On time and spot on Elvis! My wife loved the surprise we gave her and the incredible performance. Also, the very cool sound system to the beautiful pink Cadillac he showed up in just set for the perfect appearance. My wife just came from Vegas and saw a few Elvis impersonators there, she said he was better.
-- Gabriel J, Orinda, CA, 4/2/2010
- He would hire Bay area Elvis Impersonator Rick Torres again in a heartbeat! He is just so incredible to watch in person. His videos are good but in person thats a real treat. He is the best! Hire him! The Pink Caddy is real cool!! We saw Rick on CBS last friday with his new caddy! -- Jenuahi H, San Jose, CA, 2/12/2010
- OMG Rick!
I just wanted to email you and thank you for your wonderful performance. Professor Hammond was barely able to finish class, he was so blown away and pleased ! He just kept grinning and laughing.
Everybody in class kept saying how great your performance was and how well you sang and danced. I am pretty sure everyone on campus will be talking about this for weeks!Really appreciate how accommodating you were for us. Got to say that is a cool pink caddy!!!!Thank you so much!
Hannah
-- Hannahg P, San Jose, CA, 3/9/2010
- Rick Torres astonished our company and the Hotel staff who catered our event. We had the Ultimate Elvis Tribute show which was a very impressive:"WE DELIVER LAS VEGAS!"type show. I had to ask how long it takes to rehearse with the lighting Technician, and found out all the lighting was set- up in advance with computerized automation. OMG! Hightech! In passing one of the staff members commented to me that there was another Elvis Impersonator there on December 11 and did not even come close to the Look or performance he saw at our show. We could not be more pleased with the service we received and will use Rick Torres and King Creole Entertainment for future Events. -- Ruth C, Fremont, CA, 12/12/2009
- There is so many testimonials on his site now but Im sure there is room for more. He was worth every penny, so worth it we felt the need to give him a little more when he left. His entire presentation from himself to the beautiful pink Cadillac he showed up in was all Elvis!!! It was a amazing experience having him at our get together. -- Christina S, Santa Cruz, CA, 2/27/2010
- Ok day 2! people hearing he was here and how fantastic he was came to receive the renewal of wedding vows! We ran out of certificates!lucky for us Rick had a few more. 52 wedding renewals performed over a two day event and his energy level never slowed a beat! Every ceremony was beautiful, fun, and humorous all at once.Every song performed with the same energy and passion. You should hire Rick to perform your wedding renewal ceremony or actual ceremony! Yes he can do that too! See you in a few months Rick! -- Leighann L, Healdsburg, CA, 2/14/2010
- I was really interested in hiring the best Elvis for this birthday, and among all the Elvis impersonators on this site Bay areas Elvis impersonator Rick Torres was without a doubt the most impressive. He is obviously the most booked and for a good reason. I have to say now after watching him perform that he was the best choice, and was as impressive in person as I hoped. He has all the attitude to pull it off ,and a fantastic voice -- Randy G, Stockton, CA, 1/12/2010
- I was so nervous how this would play out. I wanted it to be so special, and Rick did a incredible job of seeping it very top secret. He is just nothing short of the best I have ever seen. He has it on any of the Elvis I look at on this site. We will be watching him on CBS on Feb. 12th at 7pm to watch him do his stuff again!! -- Sharon R, San Francisco, CA, 1/30/2010
- I wanted Rick come to a birthday party for myself and two friends. He has strict instructions that he did not know anybody but was in complete costume, and just happen to be in this bar. No singing other than a few notes without music. He said he was staying in the hotel and just came from a show. It was a private party so he asked if it was ok if he could stay or is there another place to have a drink close by, and was gesturing like he was leaving. That was the clincher. Everyone welcomed him bought him a few drinks and he left buzzed! His assist drove him home. Rick your the coolest! -- Justin M, San Francisco, CA, 2/5/2010
- Rick was really great and was the best Elvis we could have hoped for! It was a well planned surprise. The birthday party was very special mostly due to the great performance he gave to us. He has a very good Elvis voice, singing and talking. The best I have heard. We took many cards from him to use his services again in the future. -- Victoria V, San Francisco, CA, 1/20/2010
- Rick was very professional, and performed D.J Karaoke and Elvis appearance. He is very good at doing all and made it very fun. He was on time and delivered on all commitments. He made the evening flow and I really appreciated him taking command of all evening festivities -- Sri B, Fremont, CA, 1/16/2010
- Hey there Elvis!

We all just think you are the greatest! See you at Sheilas party in July! I heard she just booked you via email invite! Im there! -- Connie B, San Jose, CA, 1/15/2010
- I heard about Bay Area Elvis Impersonator Rick Torres when I was on my way to work, and I was listening to 98.5 KFOX Greg Kihn morning show. He was on there being interviewed for Elvis Birthday, and he was doing a benefit concert for Stanford. He just sounded like a fun guy, and he could really sing well! I could tell by the D.Js that he was real good as well. Had to have him at our party, and he was a blast! It was a party that all will remember. I cant express enough to whomever is looking for an Elvis impersonator to hire him. -- Angela Q, Oakland, CA, 12/19/2009
- I was hearing about this sound system that was going to be used, and I thought well if you show up 15 minutes before you perform how does that work? I could now believe the sound that was achieved from this portable system. Elvis assistant comes in and hits the button and POW!! It was like a concert in there!! From the blind Elvis was singing, and all the while people are thinking, cool its an Elvis song! Then he appeared in the doorway and it was magical! This Elvis Quickie service is the best! Rick was fantastic! -- Martha W, San Francisco, CA, 1/14/2010
- Elvis Impersonator Rick Torres was so good he made some of the girls cry! I swear it was just an amazing experience,and we just had the best time with Rick! Bay areas supreme king!! I think we are going to hire him for our Christmas party along with the D.J. services they have too. I passed all the information to my company. -- Merissa C, San Jose, CA, 1/8/2010
- Rick was so Wonderful in spite of our small venue. We'd like to hire him again in June for another larger event we are having. I would not hesitate to recommend Rick to anyone looking for entertainment for an event! Phyllis Weber, VP Sales and Marketing for CSR Real Estate in San Jose, CA. -- Phyllis W, San Jose, CA, 1/22/2010
- 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.. -- Robert S, San Jose, CA, 12/23/2009
- Ok first things first!!! Got to say Rick Torres has a very nice looking hum hum in those 68 leather jeans!!! LOL! Fantastic performance, and he is such a great guy just like the King. Everyone wants to see him again at some future party next year. I will be contacting him in the near future to discuss that. He is such a dynamic entertainer! Everyone who is looking for an Elvis Impersonator needs to stop right here.
-- Teresa V, Santa Clara, CA, 12/4/2009

- We loved the performance! All I heard is excellent reviews about how he looked, sang, performed, and even talked like Elvis! We were honored he could attend our new years event, and we will continue to express to others to use him in the future. Sincerely yours, Marlon June Massersk -- Helio Q, Vacaville, CA, 12/31/2009

- It was a Last minute decision to book Rick Torres when one of my family called me and alerted me to this site. He was very impressive on your website, and the decision was very easy and unanimous to hire him. It was a fantastic appearance, and something my mother who turned 80 will carry with her all her days. She was very impressed with his singing and appearance as were all the guest who attended the party. We would strongly recommend his services!Thanks Elvis! -- David C, Fremont, CA, 11/22/2009
- The decision was made at short notice, but we were so pleased that Rick Torres was able to free up the time to perform at our Vegas Homecoming. From all the options seen we were really hoping he was available. Many of the Kids took pictures with him and were very impressed with the performance. His appearance was a fabulous addition! -- Loraine W, San Jose, CA, 11/20/2009

- Elvis Impersonator Rick Torres successfully performed our wedding ceremony as well as a few songs for the crowd of 120 guest. Upon booking He asked me questions about how me met and our lives together and created a beautiful ceremony based on what I told him. We did a casino reception with the King on top. He was without a doubt the excellent choice for us and I cannot see anyone I looked at prior to booking him that impressed me like he did. -- Monica S, Livermore, CA, 11/11/2009
- Man was that a blast!! It was a great hanging out with the King! Since he dident have any pressing engagements following our appearance we had Rick stay another hour and sing some more songs. He made an impression on everyone at the party. He really knows how to belt out the tunes, and he really changed the atmosphere as soon as he arrived. We want to have him renew our wedding vows next year, and since he is ordained one of my sister in laws is considering him to officiate her wedding Vegas Style! Rick is Numero Uno! -- Mark O, Lathrop, CA, 10/27/2009
- We had the King Creole Rick Torres show up in the black leather 1968 comeback suit and perform songs Elvis performed at that 68 show.

Very fun, also entertaining. -- Joanne M, Stockton, CA, 10/24/2009

Many guest were just beside themselves during and after the performance. Everyone loved it! It was a fantastic addition to kick off the evening to come. Hire the best! Hire Rick Torres! -- Karen E, Piedmont, CA, 10/24/2009
- Rick is the Number 1 Elvis! We would have had him perform all night if we could. Everyone loved his energetic performance. Our Halloween party was transformed by his performance, and it went high gear from that point. Very handsome guy, and all the girls agreed he was very Elvis. He has those eyes goin on. We could have not done better by our decision to use him. -- Mike And Suzy D, Manteca, CA, 10/23/2009
- I had no idea how to surprise someone in a crowded restaurant but King Creole did. Everyone at the party talked the entire time how terrific the appearance aka The Elvis Quickie was. Not to mention over and over again how impressive Elvis Impersonator Rick Torres was and is. We had quite a few people at the restaurant ask for contact information after they left. At least 10 so he should be getting some calls. -- Phil C, San Leandro, CA, 10/23/2009
- He was on the dot - arrived at he venue on time. He did make follow up calls - calling me several times to see to it that everything is ok as scheduled. Very professional and accomodating to our guest. He did an excellent performance to the satisfaction of the celebrant and all my guests.

- GREAT! SHOW! When Elvis performed at our party, the Hawaiian dance group we hired said, O my God that is Rick Torres! We have seen him perform before! You got the Best Elvis around!! Can we perform with him during a song? My husband was thrilled when you said yes and performed Rock a hula and Blue Hawaii with the Background Hawaiian dancers, as much as they were. This was unexpected as the Hawaiian dancers were a bit early and overlapped Ricks appearance. A Day to Remember! -- Hellen L, Milpitas, CA, 10/10/2009
- We could not be more please. This was a second performance we used Elvis impersonator Rick Torres of King Creole Entertainment. Both previous shows have been day time performances. We are now looking to do an evening performance to book his ultimate Elvis Tribute performance with a spotlight and the choreographed light show he has available. Looks cool on his site. Cant wait to see in person -- Renee C, Pacifica, CA, 10/10/2009
- It was very cold outside show! Windy and cold! Rick performed on the outside deck like it was the a perfect summer evening. Not fazed by the fact that most of the group was blue lipped! LOL! He is a perfect example of the phrase, THE SHOW MUST GO ON! People started interacting with him and dancing around, and then we started feeling the summer too! Superb Performance! -- Uschi J, Menlo Park, CA, 10/3/2009

- Without a doubt from the 150 plus people at Saturdays big 50 party for my sister, the highlight of the evening was the performance provided by Rick Torres of King Creole Entertainment!! With everyone surrounding him, he had about a 5x5 area for his performance and exploded like a white fringed firecracker with spins, kicks, dips and a sexy smile. My sister along with all the other gals were in love. His voice is really something to hear in person. I would suggest to pick Unchained Melody. It was my fave, and made me cry -- Leslie P, Redwood City, CA, 9/19/2009
- Rick was totally awesome - everyone loved him! Even the younger crowd
who are into hip-hop & par music loved Rick. My guest of honor (my
sister the birthday girl who turned 50) was totally thrilled with Rick
and his music. I would highly recommend Rick to anyone for their
event. And I would certainly hire him again for my next event!
Thank you and Rick for making my party a total sucess!

- I would literally look for reasons to throw parties just to treat my friends again to another amazing performance by Bay areas best Elvis Rick Torres! I would have him perform in a different suit and perform different songs so it would be a new performance every time. We are now planning a benefit concert on my property where we will have him do his Ultimate Elvis Tribute service. Should be a sight to see, and I can wait. See you in a few months King! -- Sheryll M, San Jose, CA, 9/5/2009
- Got this feedback and had to add on to this impressive list already existing. My cousin has been to Graceland a few times during Elvis week and he said Rick was one of the best he has seen. Rick modestly replied, well thank you, I do the best I can. His best was more than good enough!! He belted out 4 of my mothers favorite songs and really made her day. Thank you Rick, I hope we will see you again when your performing in the city. -- Sophia R, San Francisco, CA, 9/5/2009
- WOW! and WOW some more! I have used Rick Torres for my wedding, a karaoke party, and my 10 year reunion for D.J. services. I have always been interested in having him do an Elvis appearance someday. I could not believe how talented he is. He also gets totally in character, even when speaking to me. He really is number one for all the reasons I have read in his very impressive list of Testimonials..Thanks again King! We will see you again soon! -- Allison O, San Jose, CA, 8/30/2009

Fantastic moves with high kicks, beautiful voice oh my god dont get me started on that, and just a very modest and sincere person. It was the best, and I know my mother will cherish the memories forever.

- There was lots of Strangers.Her friends,my friends, her family, my family,college buddies on both sides etc.People sat with the people they knew.There wasent any interaction between groups.It was sort of like different parties going on under the same roof. You came, that all ended. Everybody got up together,and got excited and talked to strangers. Nobody sat for the rest of the night.After you left people stayed on the dance floor. While the DJ stopped playing music,5 hours.You were great with Mattie,and all the folks who took pictures with you.You went beyond the call of duty! -- Kevin O, Fremont, CA, 8/1/2009

The Elvis quickie services is fantastic and we are considering it for another show in San Jose. -- Chris H, Pleasanton, CA, 7/19/2009
- Hi Rick
You were amazing!The Ultimate Elvis Tribute was a great addition to our relay for life. You had hundreds of women falling in love with you! I had one of the ladies, who was too nervous to come up for a scarf, tell me later that when I dragged her across the track to your arms it was one of the highlights of her life. She is 80 years old.
We will definitely use you in future events and refer anyone looking for Elvis to you.
Thanks for your support of our cause and your fabulous show.

Thanks again Rick, you were a total hit. -- Joyce C, Los Gatos, CA, 7/3/2009
- Hello Rick and Gigmaters!
Your Service is right on! We had an awesome time! But we all agreed, that the pictures you have on the website dont do Rick justice, in person was waaaaaaaaaaaaaay hotter ah, better!!! LOL Thank you for making this such a memorable experience. The singing, the suit, everything was exactly what we wanted. We will definitely use your services again whenever we feel the need for Elvis! The Girls at RFI
-- Sara O, San Jose, CA, 6/30/2009
- Absolutely wonderful!! We have had performers come in the past and he was the best by far. He was easy to work with and was willing to do almost anything we asked. Our party was a birthday party for 6 year old twins and he was wonderful with everyone from them up to their grandparents. Even some of the other kids who didn't know who Elvis was truly enjoyed the show. His costume was impeccable and his appearance completely had you believing it was Elvis. He had a wonderful personality and put everyone at ease. Even our photo shy uncle wanted his picture with him! I would hire him again in a minute. -- Michelle T, Rohnert Park, CA, 6/27/2009
- We all had a ridiculously good time!! Talked about it all night! And this morning too, when my sister woke me up to relive it all over again! She even pulled out all her old Elvis records! Shes ridiculous! Its all your fault! All shes been talking about is how you sang to her, kissed her, flirted with her, etc. Oh man, it was a very good time and the people in the restaurant were all commenting about you and what a great show you put on! Even the band said something to us when we walked over there to dance afterwards!The performance was much more than I expected. Thank you forever!

- Ladies and gentleman! The ULTIMATE ELVIS TRIBUTE SHOW !!! We opted to have a 45 minute deluxe Elvis tribute show with a synchronized light show option during the performance. Very impressive, and met with a standing ovation! When Rick, and his crew got set up they were testing the sound, lights, and all . Rick was singing as he walked the room checking his microphone reception. I had to walk up to him to see if it was really him singing. Man is he good! Definitely close to the genuine article in my book. Many show options to give you the flexibility to arrange exactly what you want, and will work with your budget. Thanks again for a impressive evening! -- Robert H, Oakland, CA, 6/14/2009
- Rick was the highlight of my husband's surprise birthday party. He was spot-on Elvis! There were 30 guests and he connected with all of them. He stayed afterwards so that everyone could get a picture with him. He was very professional with the contracting process, follow ups prior to the date and during his performance. Book him-you'll love him! -- Marthe T, Cupertino, CA, 6/13/2009
- Rick Torres was very, very entertaining as Elvis. Dressed beautifully and sang great!!! Was very accomodating to all the ladies at my party for pictures and hugs!!! He even danced with some of the gals!!! He made my birthday party very special!
Thank you!!

- All my mom talks about is Elvis. If it was too much before the flood gates are wide open now! It was everything just to keep her in her seat during the appearance. The Elvis quickie is the best, and we highly recommend Elvis impersonator Rick Torres!! -- Diana L, Stocton, CA, 5/23/2009
- Ricks performance was awesome! We had a contest with various departments we did a Vegas theme. We won first place because people had so much fun in our Theme,and of course with Rick Torres. Not only is he an all around good guy and great to do business with, but his performance was outstanding. He made the ladies blush and the guys move their feet! Even our executives were climbing on the desks to get a better view. I look forward to doing business with Rick again and highly recommend him. -- Rebecca R, San Francisco, CA, 5/20/2009
- Hired Rick again to perform at Birthday party.Had a great time! -- Rhonda J, Fremont, CA, 5/16/2009
- Rick Torres is all that. 2 great performances at the club. We are looking to have him back in a few weeks. -- Preston T, Burlingame, CA, 5/14/2009
- Elvis Impersonator Rick Torres has to be the best, and I will tell you why. My Mother has got to be the biggest Elvis fan on the planet! She has a room 10 by 10 just pack with Elvis keepsakes ,and stuff she collected at his concerts. She just wept through the entire show, and kept saying, oh my god your incredible to him. When he left my mom said he was very gifted and she was putting the pictures and the scarf he gave her in her Elvis room. I was so happy I hired him. It was more special than I could have imagined it would be. -- Valerie S, San Jose, CA, 5/10/2009
- UNBELIEVABLE PERFORMANCE!!!!!!!!!! What a Fantastic Performance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Mahalo Rick! I can see why so many people hire you. Everyone wished you could say a sing a few more but I told them, you had to go and swoon a few more girls today. Loved you so much! -- Nancy M, Fremont, CA, 5/9/2009
- Rick Torres was very accomadating and responded quickly to my request. It was my mother's 70th birthday, and although she is a conservative lady, Rick made her feel great. He really knows how to break the ice and sees to it that everybody has fun. My aunts were dancing and they all had a blast. They will never forget this event, especially my mother. This made her 70th the most memorable. Also, although he did not have to do this, because I live in LA and was unable to be there, he sent me pictures and video clips of all the songs he sang. He deserves all the great reviews I had read about him. -- Mike H, San Jose, CA, 5/9/2009
- The performance was at the bank. Everyone stopped to enjoy the show! -- Rhonda J, Fremont, CA, 5/9/2009
- Velvet Grill and Creamery will never be the same Rick rocked the place with his gold lame and blue swede shoes!! We were outside taking pictures, and people were pulling into the parking lot just to take a picture with the best Elvis impersonator! Looked and sounded Astounding. -- Alexandra R, Modesto, CA, 5/2/2009
- Fantastic Service and Performance! -- Paige P, Windsor, CA, 4/25/2009
- Thank you so much! Rick Torres is everything we expected and more! The Elvis quickie was just perfect! We had 30 kids and parents who were so impressed that when he finished they rushed him for photographs! He has the coolest sound system with this L.E.D. Elvis sign on top. It sounds like a very nice house stereo but it is portable with a wireless microphone, and runs on its own power. Rick said he had it custom made specifically for the Elvis Quickie. So professional!! I have to say after he left most of the people at first thought he was lip-syncing, but quickly realized he was not. What a voice!! -- Tracy B, San Anselmo, CA, 4/25/2009
- My Grammy Gram went over like a bomb in the house! The Rock a Billy 20 minute Elvis quickie was just amazing and we are so grateful to the best Elvis around Rick Torres for bringing Elvis back to my 80 year old grandmother who just loves Elvis! He was so smooth in all the hip swings and hand movements. His voice we knew was going to be great thanks to all the examples on this site and his own personal site. Top performer and service !!!!! -- Anthony A, Fremont, CA, 4/18/2009
- If there was ever a meaning of the term inspirational entertainer it certainly pertains to Ricks performance last weekend at our event. Women wept and swooned as he approached them! I could not believe the effect he had on the audience! We had one of the Ultimate Tribute Shows. Ultimate is another word that sums it well! Rick ran out of business cards and started writing his information on napkins. He signed the napkins for a good time call Elvis! LOL! I Love it! -- Evelyn V, San Jose, CA, 3/21/2009
- Rick was truly "THE KING" impersonator, he catered to all our needs and requests for special songs. The Birthday girl (70 years young)was very surprised as were the rest of the guests by his proessional performance. Many said it was better than some shows they had seen in Las Vegas. Many asked for his number as they would use Rick in the future. It was great that he stayed and made sure everyone got a picture with him. Thanks again Aleta and Tom. -- Aleta M, Pleasanton, CA, 3/1/2009
- It was a small but memorable ceremony. Rick Torres was our Officiate and Elvis Impersonator. He was just so incredible to work with. We had to reschedule a few times due to family conflicts, and he was always so understanding and accommodating. We really felt like he cared allot about what we were trying to do and not just doing it as a job. He is the type of individual you dont come across often. He is an over and above very exceptional performer!
-- Angelina N, Manteca, CA, 2/18/2009
- I was at a Wedding in El Cerrito, and was so impressed with Rick Torres, we booked him for our Valentines function on the 14th. I have received so many calls and emails about him, and the outstanding Job, and performance he and his co. provided. Rick Torres and King Creole Entertainment are pure magic, and a guaranteed Hit! -- Eva G, Richmond, CA, 2/14/2009
- Hi Rick and Bobbie,
Thanks for being the best part of a PERFECT fifties themed 60th birthday celebration! Thanks to you, the party was even better than I had hoped. The 50s and 60s music and Elvis performance were perfect and really made the party the celebration that it was. We attended two weddings in the last year, each had a DJs. One DJ was obnoxious and one DJ was boring. You two were such fun! People are already saying we had the party of the year! Thank you.
-- Jean B, Livermore, CA, 2/7/2009
- Previously, we had hired Rick for our benefit and this was a private party. In his typical fashion he was sensational! None better! -- Susan M, Palo Alto, CA, 1/31/2009
- Thanks to Rick Torres Our fundraiser Goals were met 3 times over! His radio interview with KFOX was just the best!! We are planning a larger show in August. Rick Torres and King Creole Entertainment will be our first call. Excellent performance Elvis! -- Susan M, Palo Alto, CA, 1/8/2009
- Very professional and entertaining. Believe even non Elvis fans enjoyed the performance. -- Bente J, Mill Valley, CA, 9/18/2010
- Heard about Rick Torres The Elvis Impersonator from a friend who saw him perform in San Francisco at a benefit concert. This guy is incredible! We will be booking again for next year. Fantastic! -- Sheryll M, San Jose, CA, 12/19/2008
- I would highly recommend Bay Area's #1 Elvis Impersonator Rick Torres. He gave us the EXACT show we needed for our corporate event. As a result, the performance was a BIG hit with all of our employees. Rick has unparalleled talent and professionalism... and best of all, he has contagious passion and enthusiasm. Rick, there's a reason why you are #1. Thank you for an excellent performance. -- Jen J, San Jose, CA, 12/17/2008
- That Elvis quickie service is just the greatest idea! This is the second time I used King Creole Entertainment. Definitely worth the money and the performance provided was seamless and well performed. Rick Torres is excellent. I would definitely call again for this service It is a great gift for any occasion. Thanks again. -- Dennis S, San Jose, CA, 12/15/2008
- We had King Creole over for our Christmas party. We opted for his Ultimate Elvis Tribute package. It was like a Las Vegas Show! With lasers, spotlight, brilliant stage lighting effects,and scarves! Everything was perfect! And the best show in our history of partys according to all that attended. To put in one word WOW!!!!!
-- Shelby K, Sunnyvale, CA, 12/13/2008
- We were thoroughly entertained! We could not be more pleased! Our Christmas party with D.J. Rick/Elvis came off with everyone saying man this was the best year ever! You gotta call this guy again! We certainly will be doing just that! -- Elise B, Gilroy, CA, 12/6/2008
- What we got was exactly what I had expected in reading in his countless testimonials for about 30 minutes prior to making a decision to hire him. Our employees as well as myself just loved him. His voice and singing style is ELVIS! Give him a call! -- Tracy H, San Jose, CA, 12/6/2008
- He was the best! We went from a crowd of 25 to 100 as soon as he started singing. People coming out of other stores stayed and enjoyed the utterly fantastic performance! Thank you so much. He must have taken a few hundred pictures with the crowd. -- Lisa C, San Ramon, CA, 12/6/2008
- My Mother is the Biggest Elvis fan! To put it another way, she has seen more than her share of the local Elvis Impersonators. To surprise her I started looking for another one when I came upon the Gig Master Site. Rick Torres appeared to be the most logical choice. His reputation and feedback was so impressive, it was a guaranteed homer! My Mother was in disbelief to how great he was! Better than any she has seen in decades.3 hours after he left the party he was still the topic of most of the conversation in the room. Thank you Rick Torres and Gig Masters. -- Brenda H, San Luis Obispo, CA, 11/29/2008
- This was such a fantastic service. I was so happy with the Elvis appearance as was my family. Thank you again! -- Christine L, San Jose, CA, 11/28/2008
- I have been trying to find a moment to send you this testimonial, and I want to say it is my absolute pleasure to do so. Rick Torres is a true professional, and he without a doubt loves what he does. The Appearance was to be a complete surprise for those who attended the party, and I cannot believe how happy everyone was that I hired him. Rick was off the scale. Also you need something higher than a 5 in your rating. He Rocks!!! -- Paul F, Redwood City, CA, 11/26/2008
- Such a unbelievable performance! The Elvis Quickie service was the service we decided on. To be honest we were expecting some kind of boom box and a cute little appearance. When they came in with this completely impressive self powered mobile system, and his assistant turned on the system proceeded by Elvis, the party just went pandemonium! That 20 minutes seem to last longer. It was definitely a hard act to follow for the band who proceeded him. We read all about the past performance but it is really something to see in person! Thank you so much! -- Tom D, San Mateo, CA, 11/23/2008
- THANK YOU, THANK YOU THANK YOU! Your show was by far the BEST program we have used as entertainment for our group BAR NONE! You made new fans of people in the audience who have never even seen Elvis! The professionalism of yourself, your crew and your equipment was TOP NOTCH! Your renditions, moves and stage presence truly involks the essence that was Elvis Presley and recreates that magic LIVE ON STAGE! you are truly, The KING!
-- Robert A, San Francisco, CA, 11/22/2008
- I have had a few let downs hiring Entertainers, but I can begin to explain in the text time allowed for this feedback how completely please we are with D.J. Rick/Elvis and King Creole Entertainment. Everything was fantastic! The D.J. Services combined with Karaoke, and a memorable visit from the King Himself! This has got to be the best entertainment co. around! We danced and sang through the evening and when it was over we must have thanked him 20 times. Heres one more thank you so much Rick for an incredible evening! -- Melinda W B, San Francisco, CA, 11/21/2008
- Rick! Thanks again! it was wonderful!!! It was a huge surprise and hit for everyone! Just like we wanted it to be! We appreciated your involvement and flexibility. All the testimonials we read to how talented and incredible you were are definitely right on the mark! Thanks very much! -- Jackie S, Livermore, CA, 11/18/2008
- Rick was totally great-on time, looking good, good looking, and our guests really enjoyed him. He was accommodating in taking photos and greeting our guests, also he is very convincing in his role, and a very down to earth person. I would most definitely recommend him. We will use him again without a doubt
thanks
-- Theresa S, San Mateo, CA, 11/15/2008

The ceremony, songs, and over all performance blew us and our friends away! It will be a party to remember!

Amanda & Eric Kuehnl -- Amanda G, Berkeley, CA, 11/8/2008
- I didn’t actually see him perform, I booked the services for a friend but I heard that he was sensational from everyone that was there. I know that most there wanted his contact information for future appearances. Abby is a big Elvis fan, and she said he was the best Elvis impersonator she has seen anywhere. -- Sean S, Santa Cruz, CA, 11/7/2008
- We were so pleased with this service! Anybody looking for an Elvis Impersonator? This guy is in every way the best I have seen. So cool! Even when you are just asking Rick where he is from or how he got started he never comes out of character! Same mannerisms as Elvis and everything. Not in a pretend way or like he is trying to sound like him . You feel like you are talking to Elvis. He is so much on his game that he literally brings you into the illusion. Between that and his unreal, Incredible voice it does not take much. Hire the best? Take my word for it, Your definitely there, stop looking. -- Katrina C, Palo Alto, CA, 10/27/2008
- I originally booked Rick the Elvis impersonator for 45 minutes to mingle with the guest at the party and sing 8 songs. The 250 plus guest who attended the party were so impressed with him I asked him to stay longer which he gladly did and performed request songs for the guest. He was so into character and his appearance was so genuine that even though everyone was in costume they knew he was an Elvis impersonator and people were standing waiting to take a picture with him or just talk to him. Absolutely the best Elvis I have seen anywhere! My wife and I are big fans of Elvis and have seen many shows both locally in Memphis and Reno. -- Mike C, San Jose, CA, 10/25/2008
- The performance was fabulous! Rick/Elvis has a wonderful voice and everyone truly enjoyed the show a great job! -- Teresa E, Saratoga, CA, 10/22/2008
- Yes, this testimonial is a pleasure! Rick/Elvis more than meet and exceed our expectations. We trusted Rick to bring us a creative solution for my brothers wedding reception. Rick asked me for some personal information about my brother and his wife, and came up with the agenda to surprise my brother and said he was Elvis the Singing Physic! LOL! They approached him and he starting telling them things about the two of them and coax them into a brief wedding ceremony and then sang them a song. Everything was perfect, funny and fun. Rick was well worth the money, and the memories and pictures will last a lifetime. Thank you Rick! -- Bill H, San Francisco, CA, 10/18/2008
- Very! Very! Very! Good At was he does! Was he lip syncing? ah no He is that good! Thanks for everything. -- Sam W, Santa Clara, CA, 10/15/2008
- Rick was awesome! He was a big hit with my guests, they all enjoyed the music. The only negative thing I can say is I thought the price was high for a 30 to 40 minute performance. Thanks Elvis for making our evening so much fun! -- Joyce V, Pinole, CA, 11/5/2011
- My Mother is such an Elvis fan. She just loved the performance. A great performance, a great guy, very convincing, and everybody in the family was equally impressed. Thank you again!! -- Rosanne A, Daly City, CA, 10/11/2008
- He was great everyone loved him. I would highly recommend him to anyone. My daughter was so suprised at her party to see him.
Thanks
Lorene -- Lorene D, Modesto, CA, 9/13/2008
- We were impressed with all the songs and the way you arranged the 3 performances throughout the day. The progression every two hours from 1959 Elvis to 1968 Elvis and then the 1970s Elvis was a great idea. We were impressed how your moves on the stage changed according to the era. Very Cool and it was almost like there was 3 of you LOL! Saying that you are talented is just dosent cover it. We will recommend you without a doubt! -- John R, Santa Rosa, CA, 9/7/2008
- What a completely convincing performance! You must really study him, you have the mannerism, stage personality, movements as well as that incredible voice that everyone was so impressed with. The week following your performance we watched a actual performance that Elvis did in a concert and I have to say it again Well done! You give him back to those who loved him. -- Jennifer P, Alameda, CA, 9/6/2008
- Thank you Rick, thank you very much,
You helped make my parent's 50th wedding Annaversary such a fun and loving party. I recommend you to anyone who wants to have a wonderful, magical, event. We Love ya, bayba.
your Pink Poodle Skirt Groupies,
Julie, Sarah and Amyrillis
-- Julie M, San Jose, CA, 8/30/2008
- You WOWED my group, and I know our next project will be even more spectacular! I had a chat with Robin Rosaaen, the gal running the San Jose Elvis fan club. She is apparently someone very famous, as it turns out, having written several books on Elvis as well as appearances on Oprah, Geraldo, etc. She is on board with this January project. She suggested we might want to look at a date earlier than January 8 so that the fans of Elvis can go to Memphis for his birthday. -- Susan M, Stanford, CA, 8/23/2008
- Our Hot August Nights kickoff party was a success! You are definately walking aside the Ghost of Elvis. I believe since August 16 1977. LOL. See you next year. -- Debbie G, Pleasanton, CA, 8/21/2008
- AMAZING BABY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -- Susan C, Mountain View, CA, 8/18/2008
- Westmont High school reunion Class of 1968 would like to thank King Creole Entertainment for making it more like 1968 with the 68 comeback special Elvis Appearance. Very authentic and I cant begin to say enough positive things I heard all night about the performance. Now that we know you D.J. as well we hope you will be available for our next reunion. -- Carl T, Santa Clara, CA, 8/16/2008
- What we expected for our Elvis appearance was nothing compared to what happened. We were having our party at a private park at the Elks lodge I belong to. Elvis show was a surprise. He pulled up on the lawn by the stage in a 2003 T Bird Convertible and the group just went wild! He performed for 30 minutes and people cheered, danced, girls swooned, and in general stood there with their mouths open in shock! The whole time I was thinking this is the best show I have ever seen! I just had no idea it was going to be that incredible. -- Bill C, Santa Clara, CA, 8/8/2008
- It was more than special for Carl & Patti who were celebrating their 50 year anniversary. Rick/Elvis is an exceptional performer! His overall personality and mannerisms just resonate with the spirit of Elvis! Everybody literally gasped when he made the corner into the room with the 2001 Elvis intro playing prior to his appearance. Both Carl and Patti received a scarf illustrated with Happy 50th anniversary Carl and Patti! They both said they with put them in a place of honor with all of their other Elvis memorabilia. Simply Unforgettable and a spectacular service! -- Carl P, Belmont, CA, 8/8/2008
- Rick was just wonderful. He played the role of Elvis to a tee, and never once slipped out of character! I hired Rick to surprise my fiance on his 60th birthday. It was a complete hit! We have asked Rick to come back and perform our wedding!!
-- Chris C, Walnut Creek, CA, 7/27/2008
- Thought it only right I follow up with you. Your performance last night was without question the hit of the party. Forget about meeting expectations, you, Elvis, far exceeded them. Folks are still talking about it this morning and I know of two that will be calling you. Thanks for all the energy you brought to the group, it really was a fantastic show.Definitely a reason why your the best around. -- Greg A, Alamo, CA, 7/25/2008
- If you want the BEST!!! OMG!!! Then you should hire Rick the number one Elvis impersonator at King Creole Entertainment. When he walked into the party it like a bomb went off, and the explosion lasted until he left. I stood with my sister who helped me hire him and said, man is that guy hot or what! one word sums it up ELVIS!!!! -- Christina T, San Jose, CA, 7/19/2008
- My Mother & Fathers 40 year anniversary was full of surprises. The pivoting point of the afternoon was the momentous appearances by Elvis! King Of Rock and Roll! Cant say enough about it. Thank you so much King Creole Entertainment for all you did for us! -- Claire A, San Ramon, CA, 7/12/2008
- You did a great job and sounded great with the Band, The Detours. The gals are still swooning and Your costumes were great. Everyone is still talking about it and so I hope that you will be available again next year. I never start planning until March or April but you will definitely be hearing from me next spring
because I would like to put Elvis on as a regular. Thanks again. Mary Hoopes
-- Mary H, Danville, CA, 7/4/2008
- My Mother Just loved the performance! it was out standing everyone had a great time I would recomend this Elvis to anyone. -- Sean E, Los Banos, CA, 6/29/2008
- Overall, Rick Torres was very professional, I just had a few small issues. First, the sound system...It reminded me of an "AM radio," kind of sound. Very Karaoke. Second, the gig was suppose to start at 7:00. Our cooks were unable to get the food out on time, so we had to ask Mr. Torres to start at 7:20. He did, but also stopped playing at 7:45. I paid for a 45 minute show, not a 25 minute show. I was mingling with guest and didn't really notice until my DJ came up to me and told me he was just playing a 25 minute set. I then asked his assistant, if she could have him play the full 45 minute set. They complied and the show continued for the remainder. -- Tina C, Alameda, CA, 10/8/2011
- Thank you for a great performance. The gueats were very pleased. We will call you again for future appearances. -- Kimmy H, Santa Clara, CA, 6/26/2008
- Looking forward to your performance at our Hot August nights at Pezzellas De Napoli in Sunnyvale next year!
-- Vince P, Sunnyvale, CA, 6/21/2008
- "Elvis" was a super hit at our party. His performance was more entertaining than I ever expected. I will find ways to have him return for other events in my family. His blue outfit was awesome.
Thanks for making our party something people will never forget ! -- Ann S, Fremont, CA, 6/14/2008
- Rick was awesome at accomodating our requests. He did a wonderful job and my Mom was truly surprised. Rick's Elvis show was great and I would highly recommend him. -- Victoria F, San Jose, CA, 6/7/2008
- Our office retirement party was great! Everyone had a great time and made it a very special day for our great Elvis fan Connie Garcia! She was so shocked and surprised and really enjoyed the entertainer D.J. Rick Torres. His act was fun and very life like. He is very professional and made if fun for everyone. We all wish we had more time with him. Especially the ladies in the office. Thank you again Rick for the great moment you gave us. It will be one to remember for all. -- Matthew T, San Jose, CA, 5/30/2008
- FANTASTIC!!!!!! Everyone especially Peggy the birthday girl was completely entertained with the excellent Elvis performer with King Creole Entertainment. Back in March, he was hired to do a 80 year birthday party for Helen, the mother of my friend Barbara Valencia up in Castro Valley in the first time I saw him, and he was just amazing! I hired a Elvis impersonator from Green Onion singing telegrams once and he was not even half as good as King Creole! I just knew needed find a reason to use him again, and I found one! ! Just Love that good looking Elvis Guy Man! -- Gloria L, Union City, CA, 5/29/2008
- We had booked King Creole for two events. One in san Francisco and one the next evening in San Jose for a friend who was having a bachelorette party. Other than myself and Jackie who had to seen him in action the past evening. Knew anything. They went completely wild over him! -- Dina R, San Jose, CA, 5/25/2008
- Gig Masters, King Creole Entertainment, and especially Elvis / Rick OMG thank you so much! The Elvis appearance was a BIG hit! I am quite sure Jackie will be talking about this for years to come. As you could probably tell she has discriminating Elvis taste, but she thought you were outstanding and was ESPECIALLY impressed when you whipped out the song, If I Can Dream....she talked about that all night! Everything worked out perfectly! It was hard keeping the secret under wraps! Your services were more than expected and what was needed to start off her 40's with a bang!!! I will definitely call you again , and Im sure many of my friends will to for future events!! Ch -- Dina R, San Francisco, CA, 5/24/2008
- WOW! What a fantastic performance! Elvis was great with the crowd and made my husband's 40th birthday party a memory we will never forget! -- Lisa R, Dublin, CA, 5/21/2008
- My Mother has seen Elvis 5 times in person. Her and her best friend would go and see him together. I got this idea for her sweet 60 Birthday. I found Rick the Elvis impersonator with King Creole Entertainment, and was extremely impressed with all the Kind words left by his past clients. I will never forget the look on my mothers face. She just love him and thought his recreation of Elvis was just perfect! The entire restaurant was going wild. At least 10 of the customers followed him outside the restaurant just to take a picture with him and asked him to sing a few bars of their favorite song. Which he gladly did. They looked at him like he was Elvis Himself. -- Greg S, Union City, CA, 5/18/2008
- Our Elvis encounter was amazing! We hired DJ Rick for our mom's 70th birthday party and couldn't be more impressed. He personally called me to set up the whole show and made sure everything was perfect. He was professional, fun and made a lasting impression. He was so very personable and stayed for dozens of pictures with our family after the show. I'm sure everyone at our party will be talking about him for years to come. My mom said this was the best birthday party she ever had, and Elvis had so much to do with it. Thank you, Elvis! -- April M, San Jose, CA, 5/17/2008
- Rick was amazing! He has an uncanny ability to make people feel special and like he's singing just for them. We had about 200 ladies ranging in age from 18-90 at our community event and heard nothing but positive feedback. We honestly can't wait to have him back again. Elvis truly was in the house! I've already had about 20 people ask me where we found him...said they have seen many Elvis performers and that Rick was way better than any they had seen before. THANKS RICK...and Bobbi too...you guys really MADE THE EVENT! I can't thank you enough! Shannon -- Shannon H, Brentwood, CA, 5/9/2008
- My girlfriends special day was highlighted by Rick's performance. His professionalism, punctuality and dedication to The King proved to be the icing on the cake of a most memorable event. He sang from the heart and his songs were enjoyed by everyone in attendance. Thank you Rick,we really appreciated the real Elvis in you. Craig and Natty. -- Craig H, San Francisco, CA, 5/4/2008
- A true performer, and an excellent singer! My girlfriend loves Elvis, and I just thought this would be a funny thing to do. OMG! It was like Elvis came to life and walked into the park to perform for us! Other parties in the park that day were cheering as he performed, and I stood just in awe as the tears welled up in my Girlfriends eyes. She was just thrilled and in disbelief. This Elvis quickie is a incredible service, and I strongly recommend if you are looking to blow someone away to hire Rick/Elvis with King Creole Entertainment!! -- Delicia N, Santa Clara, CA, 4/26/2008
- Rick is Nothing short of completely amazing. Seeing is believing, and he better in person. I have seen a few Elvis impersonators locally and in Vegas. He is the by far the best I have seen. Cant wait to book him for another event! -- Drew R, San Jose, CA, 4/25/2008
- This week I have been going crazy trying to finish up the details for my Jimmies 50 year birthday. King Creole was so helpful with all the services they provided. They D.J.ed ,emceed , helped with the schedule, and oh my god what an incredible Elvis performance. The bar that you have to walk through to get to our room was full of people. Most came to the door asking to watch the performance. We thought the voice was actually Elvis voice and he was lip-syncing, he would talk in the middle of the song, and thats when we realized it was actually him singing. He also is very sexy when he does his cool Elvis moves, also easy on the eyes. If you want to experience the next best thing next to Elvis himself you need to call Rick/ Elvis at King Creole. -- Joyce S, Santa Clara, CA, 4/12/2008
- WOW, What can I say? Elvis LIVES! The Show, The Songs, The Effects all combined to make the experience of Elvis come Alive on stage to the delight of all in the audience! Young and Old alike were Rockin' to the music of Rick Torres as Elvis Presley! On behalf of the Viva Las Vegas Benefit Show let me say that I would not hesitate for a moment to recommend Mr. Torres to anyone looking to put on a truly memorable show with a TOP NOTCH performer and crew! So many people commented on the wonderful evening that we will definately be booking another show soon! Viva Las Vegas, Baby!

- The most impressive moment of all the acts we had in the evening was when Rick The Elvis Impersonator walked into the spotlight to perform a ½ hour tribute to the King. We have 50s parties at our Church every year and we always hire an Elvis impersonator. He is without a doubt the best we have ever had. What a amazing voice and his costume and moves were equally amazing. We already booked him for next year to make sure he was available. -- Sandra M, San Jose, CA, 4/4/2008
- Elvis/Rick was simply wonderful, from the moment he responded to our initial request to the time he drove away in the white Thunderbird. We were extremely pleased with the courtesy, convenience, and attention to detail during the setting up of the event. His performance was spot-on--very Elvis-like, funny, clever, and best of all, entertaining for a crowd that ranged from the 75-year-old birthday guest of honor to his four-year-old granddaughter. Everyone loved him! Keep up the good work bringing smiles, laughter, and good times to all sorts of folks. We can't recommend him highly enough.
-- Bing T, San Jose, CA, 3/30/2008
- Thank you......Thank you very much. Everybody got a real thrill out of the excellent performance. -- Joanne B, Antioch, CA, 3/29/2008
- We almost hired another Elvis my sister found in Modesto that was cheaper, but I had this vibe that someone who is willing to drive from Modesto to san Jose for $150.00 might be cheap for a reason. I am so glad I followed my gut. King Creole Entertainment price was very reasonable, their performance, setup and overall communication, and dedication to assuring our event was a success was very professional. We had this in a public restaurant and everybody there was just thrilled. Such a warm and personable entertainer. -- Nichole M, San Jose, CA, 3/22/2008
- Our Las Vegas night was complete with the show provided with King Creole Entertainment. Everyone loved the authentic costume, look, mannerism, and singing of the Elvis impersonator who just put on a memorable performance. For anyone looking this is the company to call. Many of our customers said they have seen many Elvis Performers and none were half as good. Rick was just a delight to work with and very professional as well -- Shelby K, Hayward, CA, 3/15/2008
- Great Job! My Mother Loved the show!! She was really surprised and really happy with Elvis. Thanks for everything. -- Ruby F, San Francisco, CA, 3/15/2008
- Our club members we overwhelmed, and very impressed with an incredible recreation of Elvis through the talent of Rick Torres Elvis Impersonator with King Creole Entertainment. I read most of his testimonials on this site and thought wow he is very favorable and obviously the popular an obvious choice. No doubt in my mind, we will have him back for a larger show in the future. We had members who had seen him in shows at other events, and just loved him all over again! Thank you for the opportunity to express my comment. -- Evelyn V, San Jose, CA, 3/15/2008
- When Diane the birthday girl came in to our restaurant for her surprise party she was surprised again when a handsome, dressed in black leather Elvis impersonator AKA Rick walked in from the back of the room! What a great surprise for her, and everyone who was in our completely pack bar. The guest who just happened to be there were treated to a great performer, and a real genuine guy. The Girls just loved him, and did not want him to leave. But, he left anyway….Darn! I guess we will have to have him back soon for a repeat performance! -- Cathy M, Clayton, CA, 3/14/2008
- Elvis/Rick , my 95 year old mom loved it and so did I. You were terrific and made the day very special for her. So many people came up to us and said this was the best party Villa Serena Retirement Home ever had. What a special day. Thanks for the red sweaty scarf, I will treasure it always because it was from "the King". I have told and will tell all my friends how great and handsome you are. Oh, and you know how to sing too. You really went the extra mile. Thanks for a great party. j.

- Hi,
I wanted to thank you for your wonderful performance! Everyone loved you, you were the hit of the evening. Mrs. Hansen even asked how she could contact you as she has a teacher retiring....uh oh!
Anyway, I am sending in some pictures to the paper and if any of it prints, I will send it to you. Thank you again, I will be referring you and contacting you again!

-- Lisa W, Danville, CA, 3/12/2008
- Rick Torres as Elvis was way beyond my expectations. He was the hit & highlight of my Dad's party. Everybody raved about him and asked for his card. He was funny, talented, sweet and handsome. Our guests had so much fun taking pictures with him at the end of his performance.
I will most definitely hire Rick over and over again in the future and tell all my friends about him. Thanks a million for making it possible to give my Dad the best 80th Birthday Party he could ask for. -- Bonnie M, Berkeley, CA, 3/8/2008
- You are Excellent! My son and his wife of one year wanted to see Elvis in Vegas, but when they were married there did not have the time to do so. I was on line looking for the right gift when I found King Creole. Hey, they deliver to your home! Just like a pizza! I said to myself. Boy does this guy deliver! Extra hot but no extra cheesy! Also comes with all the shake you can take! Seriously for a minute, a got to see for yourself experience. Rick/Elvis is an incredible showman, and has got the act, and voice down to a tee. Would hire them again , and I have already told all my friends and colleges, some of which are calling him to book future dates. Thanks again -- Alan R, San Jose, CA, 3/5/2008
- We hired Elvis for my Mom's 80th b-day. She loved him and so did all her friends.He was really great and personable with everybody. His performance was outstanding, I'd recommend him for any occossion! -- Barbara V, Castro Valley, CA, 3/1/2008
- I hired Rick for my husband's 60th birthday to surprise him. Rick was very accommodating in the time, date and he even learned a song that I requested to be performed for my husband since it is his favorite song. He came 30 minutes before my husband was supposed to show up and took pictures with all the guests, talked to everyone. He is absolutely fabulous.
2. I am the lucky victim of this surprise! I was so impressed with how he gave the complete illusion of Elvis and did so well on his big numbers. Costume:perfect. Personality:Super. He 'dragged' me on stage and we had a ball singing a song together. A memory of a lifetime, captured on film. Thanks, Rick. -- Frida B, San Jose, CA, 2/24/2008
- Thank you King Creole Entertainment for an unforgettable evening. We appreciate all you did before, during, and after your show to get the crowd in the mood. I know we will be calling you back for another show in the summer as we gear up for the custom car show. Everybody was so impressed with the show, and the complements kept coming in hours after you left. We will definitely be in touch. -- David S, Morgan Hill, CA, 2/22/2008
- Elvis was a HUGE hit - he turned our dinner party into a truly memorable occasion! It was a last minute decision, and I really appreciate how easy it was to get the event planned and how accommodating King Creole was to work with. My dad only wanted on song, but when Elvis sang that one song, my dad was so impressed with his voice he requested a few more! Thanks so much! Sue Ann Salmon Evans -- Sue E, San Francisco, CA, 2/21/2008
- Just got back home from the greatest event ever thanks to King Creole Entertainment!! What a fantastic Performance, and very professional presentation. -- Cynthia L, San Jose, CA, 2/21/2008
- Unbelievable performance in every way. Impressive, and professional staff. The show was seamless, and very thought out. I had researched Elvis Impersonators available in the bay area, and available on the internet. I can say without a doubt that I could not have made a more excellent choice. King Creole Entertainment brings the spirit of The King to life. What a great voice, and a great person in general. -- Hoa L, Milpitas, CA, 2/17/2008
- Thank you for a memorable experience. My mother who is the ultimate Elvis fan was blown away by the completely authentic appearance, movements ,and singing style she witnessed with King Creole Entertainment. She always wanted to see Elvis, but never did because her husband at the time told her she had to sit on her hands during the performance, so she refused to go. To put in a nut shell she did not sit on her hands for this show! If you are looking for an incredible Elvis performance this is the company to call! -- Jerry C, San Mateo Residence, CA, 2/17/2008
- Hi DJ Rick and King Creole Entertainment You were great! My mom will never forget her Elvis Encounter, and that goes the same for everyone in the room. Thank you! You are very professional, and talented. You also have excellent service when dealing with your client prior to the party. I will highly recommend you. Angeli -- Angeli T, Union City, CA, 2/16/2008
- Rick, and King Creole Entertainment
Everyone loved the show ! Especially my wife. She was completely surprised. It was perfect. Thank you so much. Even the glitch you had was funny and you handled it great, turning it into a photo op. Everyone commented that your voice was spot on. Congratulations and thank you for making Mim’s party a big success
-- Chris P, San Jose, CA, 2/16/2008
- Thank you for your help. King Creole Entertainment is unreal! Just got back from our vacation in Bora Bora, and the reality of what we went through in the last month preparing for the wedding was almost too much. Dealing with so many different venders. D.J. Rick & Bobbie were simply a delight to work with and went way beyond all our expectations. My husband is a major Elvis fan, so I arranged a 20 minute Elvis tribute as a dinner show surprise .I cant believe how much everyone raved about the excellent performance! My husband just could not believe it. Excellent performance, and a must see to anyone looking to hire an Elvis impersonator! Thank you again, I hope we can pass the word enough to get to see you in action again. -- Michael N, San Jose, CA, 2/10/2008
- We had a few changes in the time, and then we had to change the date at the last minute, and the venue. King Creole Entertainment was able to work with us in all the confusion. There was no additional cost because the optional day we needed him he was available. We tipped him because he kept insisting on not charging us. All that aside, I have seen Elvis Tribute artists Las Vegas, Reno, South Lake Tahoe, and a few here and there locally over the years. Rick the Tribute artist with King Creole Entertainment is fabulous, with an amazing voice! I cant say enough about the excellent service we received from beginning to end! -- Brenda K, Burlingame, CA, 1/25/2008
- Rick is the BEST! The "real deal." What I thought would be "cute" and fun, turned out to be Fabulous and Entertaining beyond our expectations. Elvis impersonators can be really good, or really bad. Rick was Amazing. We are trying to think what other event we can have Elvis at! Thanks again, it was a fabulous evening all around -- Melissa Bender -- Melissa B, Danville, CA, 1/12/2008
- King Creole entertainment was great! The Elvis Tribute artist was everything we expected from all that we saw and read before hiring their services. Everyone had a great time! Thank you very much -- Steve C, Livermore, CA, 1/12/2008
- We Hired King Creole To perform three 30 minute Elvis Tribute shows for the 3 hours and when he was not performing he was hanging out taking pictures with the guest. He put together all the background music for the evening, as well as performing the 21 songs and providing a great spot light show! The entire party was completely impressed with every service King Creole provided for our holiday party. Very professional, talented and exceptional service in every way.
-- Wendy R, San Francisco, CA, 12/13/2007
- Rick the Elvis impersonator arrived on time to a room full of extremely surprised Girls! He had his work cut out for him! What a sensational entertainer and a very down to earth person just like Elvis.His look and outfit were very authentic. I think Elvis would be proud to know that Rick carries on his memory with such reverence.
-- Franco P, San Jose, CA, 11/29/2007
- Very authentic performance, and definitely worth every penny. This was a surprise for my husband, and when The Elvis impersonator walked in to perform I actually jumped in my seat. Excellent Voice Thank you again! -- Amy G, San Francisco, CA, 11/24/2007
- Rick's performance was excellent. Everybody in the audience had a great time. Rick was very friendly and accomodating; it was a pleasure dealing with him in preparing for the show. -- Eric H, Milpitas, CA, 11/18/2007
- For our Casino night, we had many attractions throughout the evening, but none compared to the Elvis Tribute presented By King Creole Entertainment. Everyone gave a standing ovation and cheered for an encore performance. Elvis did two more songs and hung around for pictures afterwards. Most of the people had never seen an Elvis show and completely loved it. The ones who did said it was the best they had seen. Thank you again for a great performance -- Corina V, Monterey, CA, 11/17/2007
- To Gigmasters and King Creole Entertainment. We are very happy with the services we received using King Creole for our Elvis appearance. We were contacted at exactly the time we were told, and were greeted by a KCE staff member and the King! The restaurant where we were having our small bachelorette party was very full and also, surprised when a very authentic Elvis strolled in the door. The cameras and camera phones were going off like crazy as he headed toward our table at the far end of the restaurant to perform the Elvis Quickie 4 song show for the Bride to be. The restaurant hostess thought that others would be bothered with the show and asked the KCE staff member to turn down music. When they did they were immediately told to turn it up by the management because the other customers said to please turn it up again.
I heard someone at another table say,Man! the boy has some pipes! He did indeed. Thank you for a great performance

- Our convention/50s party was a complete success mostly in part of the excellent service given to us by King Creole Entertainment. D.J. Rick is a true professional in every way. He definitely knows his stuff! The Elvis tribute/68 comeback rock-a-Billy, and a little dash of sixties concert was very unexpected as we have seen this type of show before, but nothing like this. The impersonator was funny, interactive, and had an incredible voice ,that along with his stage presents, and tight leather suit made the entire experience very authentic. Most of the audience said later that they thought the voice was so good that he might be lip-syncing. No way it was him singing….WOW!! If you are looking for the best, King Creole is you Entertainment Co. Thanks again Rick -- Megan M, Berkeley, CA, 10/18/2007
- There are so many good things to say, I don’t even know where to begin with this. I have a career where I am around talent, and entertainment, and I was very impressed with what transpired throughout the evening. The Elvis tribute was magical, and the Elvis Tribute Artist was very impressive! The lighting, the sound system, and the wide variety of music played were fantastic!! The great overall experience my family, and friends as well as myself experienced were Completely memorable!! -- Jeanette J, San Jose, CA, 9/22/2007
- The Elvis performer was excellent. My husband was very surprised and impressed it was Definitely memorable. Elvis performed a wedding ceremony after our actual ceremony. It was perfect, and the family and friends who were there just laughed out of control! Thanks again! -- Jill V, San Jose, CA, 9/22/2007
- So Sorry Rick Its taken me so long to respond. I appreciate your reminder you sent me. It was a great experience using your services, and I have told many people since your event to use your services. If you want to give them my email address for a reference please feel free to do so. I can believe you were at the camarro fest in arazona! I also saw you at Christmas in the parade!! You were a Hit!! Chris.
-- Cris M, San Jose, CA, 3/27/2010
- This was a surprise, and a last minute surprise at that for my Dads birthday. I am sooo glad King Creole Entertainment was available for this. I was on his website for at least 1.5 hours watching all his past live footage and viewing pictures at King Creole Entertainment.net. He was even better in person! The jumpsuit we selected, the Blue Owl suit was so cool and authentic! The people at the hotel were taking pictures with him all the way out to the lobby where, unfortunately we said goodbye to him. That you Gigmasters for offering astounding services! -- Kathleen K, Burlingame, CA, 9/21/2007
- Rick,
you are an outstanding DJ,and a great Elvis Impersonator! one of the best I have ever seen in person, and I have seen a few! You made my 40th birthday party ROCK!!!! Getting middle-aged Marin people to go crazy on the dance floor is a huge achievement - and everybody loved it! I hope you had as much fun as we did, but I hope you do not have to put up with aching feet.I also hope you will come back next time we have a party, because we want only the best!!Thank you, thank you, thank you.Dennis and Lisa
-- Dennis S, Tiburon, CA, 9/15/2007
- Great Job, Thank you again for your excellent Service! -- Edie D, San Rafael, CA, 8/12/2007
- We had an Elvis quickie on my parents 40th Anniversary!
The Elvis show was the greatest thing we ever did for our parents 40th Anniversary. King Creole entertainment's Elvis show was awesome! The Elvis costume and show were very authentic. The performance was outstanding. My mom and dad had a blast and so did everybody at the party! It was both romantic and totally entertaining. Thumbs up! Thanks Elvis!!!!
-- Cristina S, Santa Clara, CA, 8/10/2007
- Thank you gigmasters for your help. At the last minute we decided since out theme was a 70’s party, that be great if we could have Elvis there to sing a few songs! It was extremely short notice but it was worth a try as long as it was not a fortune we had to pay. King Creole was contacted, and they replied almost immediately. They had a previous engagement that day, but made special arrangement to make it for our show that evening. King Creole entertainment was accommodating, professional, affordable, and Elvis was amazing!! My mother who is a very lively 90 years old had seen Elvis in concert, and was brought to tears of joy as the memories flowed while watching the Elvis impersonators flirty mannerism, and also his perfect singing style of the late Kings songs. He was worth every penny, and the price was very agreeable, considering the memories he made that day were priceless to my mom. Thanks again

- 2007 Hot August Nights was a great success. We created a special page featuring a 40-photo slideshow and FIVE video clips featuring Elvis impersonator Rick Torres with King Creole Entertainments dynamic performances of You Gave Me A Mountain, T.R.O.U.B.L.E., Are You Lonesome Tonight, The Wonder Of You, All Shook Up, My Way, and Cant Help Falling In Love...thank you very much! Click HERE to enjoy the sights & sounds!http://www.pezzellas.com/han2007.html -- Vince P, Sunnyvale, CA, 8/4/2007
- Rick Performed at my home in Morgan Hill in Jackson Oaks. We had to shuttle his equipment down the hill, and he was a real sport about it. I knew he was nervous. Looks to have quite an investment with the Pink Caddy and all. This was my 50 year reunion and I we had a great time with Rick.
-- Ivan G, Morgan Hill, CA, 6/22/2010
- When Elvis arrived to our party, the 200 + guests went crazy over him and his performance!!! What a great show he put on! He looked and sounded fabulous! Our guest of honor's, (there were 2 birthday boys), looked great in the glasses and personalized scarf's Elvis gave them! Would definitly recomend you hire him for your party entertainment needs! I know I look forward to party planning with King Creole Entertainment in the future!
Thanks for the great experience!
-- Teresa A, Monterey, CA, 7/29/2007
- Oh Yes, Definitely the right decision using King Creole. Thank you for a memorable evening. The Elvis Tribute was amazing, and very unexpected for the guest who attended the event. The Elvis impersonator had the voice down, and the show flowed with perfection! We did not exactly know what to expect, but after looking at the King Creole Website and speaking with Rick the owner of K.C.E. we knew the decision to proceed forward was a right one. Everything about the performance was fantastic, and the professionalism while they prepared the show was as well. Thank you again!! -- David F, Saratoga, CA, 7/14/2007
- Dear King Creole & Gigmasters We hoped for something that would make our fathers dreams of a visit from the greatest performer Elvis a reality. The 45 minute show supplied by King Creole was a dream come true. My Family and especially My Father will remember this performance forever. The music and the songs sung by King Creoles Elvis impersonator were fantastic!! The costume was beautiful and the lighting and Elvis sign used to complement the show were the cherry on top of a perfect birthday for him. Thank you again, so much. I still am getting chills watching the video we made. The voice was so right on, it was hard to believe it was live, but I was there ,and it was. -- Annette R, Morgan Hill, CA, 7/14/2007
- Thank you Gigmasters & King Creoles Elvis for a memorable 15 minutes!! The Elvis Quickie! What a great service! The girls at the office were a in a buzz all day awaiting the retirement party of a great friend, and at 6:30 pm Elvis 3 song show and photo op. aka the Quickie!!. The music and the singing of the late King were perfect. The costume was beautiful! I love the way King Creole laid out their ELVIS website. You can actually select the Elvis jumpsuit you want for you party, view pictures, and see footage of past shows listed by song, so you can create your Elvis experience. Completely amazing service and a Great Entertainer!!! Thank you again. -- Melissa B, San Jose, CA, 6/22/2007
- Dear Rick,
I can't even put into words how great you were and how much my siser and brother-in-law LOVED you. Joe is thinking about having you come for an hour, he's just trying to make up a new holiday just to have you come and sing. Thank you for making it so special for them. I have a question, was that really you singing? I was excited to meet you as well. My daughter and I didn't have to go out of town this weekend so it was a big surprise for my sister and Joe for us to be there. He is one of my favorite people. He truly loves my sister of 37 years. Anyway thank you and you will be hearing from us.
Love Susan

- Hi Gigmasters,
I wish to start by saying , there was a very unexpected chain of events that could have been worst if it was not for the extreme professionalism and imagination of King Creole Entertainment. Six days prior to our date we were advised Our Elvis Tribute show scheduled was halted due to the convention centers rules about setting up shows such as this. Not swayed D.J. Rick: owner of King Creole created a rolling self contained wireless system that required no set-up and performed in front of our booth. Elvis rolled the system about and lured countless people to our booth that may have not stopped at all. King Creoles Elvis was a great showman, with a great voice and open personality. King Creole made our day a success!!!!
-- Mike M, Santa Clara, CA, 6/8/2007
- Our quarterly parties are generally fun and, most of our employees just come to eat. Looking to make this party more interesting I dismissed the few D.J Companies we had used in the past ,and came across the Gigmasters website, and more to the fact King Creole Entertainment! I was very impressed with the price as well as the options of services they had to offer. In the past we have paid almost 50% more for only a D.J. than what we were paying for The D.J./Karaoke/Elvis Tribute that were supplied by King Creole. Based on the impeccable service we received I quickly realized that we have been overcharged in the past. Nobody including myself knew what to expect of what was to come. Fantastic outdoor Tribute show with Elvis, amazing lighting and smoke effects, everyone doing karaoke in the area Elvis performed at, and a great D.J. show to say the least. As I said previously, most people would typically leave after they eat, but nobody walked away from this day. Thank you King Creole & Gigmasters, we have found the only Entertainment service we will ever need. -- Kris G, San Jose, CA, 5/11/2007
- We Definitely made the wise choice hiring the Elvis Impersonator @ King Creole entertainment. He was incredible ,and everyone was completely floored with the music, the costume, and the general feel of the whole show. We did not have the turnout at first, then the music started echoing throughout the building. Then all of a sudden there were people coming from everywhere to watch the show. Nothing short of spectacular! Thanks again! We will definitely use you for another function. -- Daniel C, Berkeley, CA, 4/26/2007
- Completely spectacular in every way. Thank you soo much King Creole Entertainment for a great performance. Everybody felt like they were enjoining a cocktail show in las Vegas. The lighting effects,the spotlight,the red white & blue lighted Elvis sign, and the general layout of the entire scene. It was like going back in a time machine. The songs were sung with such heart by Rick T. aka Elvis, and the entire show was completely timed out perfectly. Thank you again!!......Or should I say..…Thank you very much. -- Ben S, Santa Clara, CA, 4/18/2007
- Dear Elvis, Your Elvis Quickie was just perfect. My wife loved every minute of it and it was a great value. We will keep the scarf and Elvis glasses forever. All my friends are talking about it and I will recommend your service to anyone
-- Eric L, Burlingame, CA, 8/22/2009
- Totally professional and totally fun. Would definitely recommend wholeheartedly! Thanks, Rick!! -- Kath P, San Jose, CA, 9/30/2011
- Hi Rick, Nora Jeans 60 th birthday on October 24 th was the highpoint of the year for her, and most that attended the party. Thank you so much for attending, and I hope we see you again someday! You are the best!
-- Chris H, Antioch, CA, 10/24/2010
- This was so, great. Rick Torres was out of this world. Rick had my guests & Resturante emlpoyees so amazed to see him as they all thought he looked and sounded just like Elvis. He was amazing ,Dynomite .What a voice, outfit and his Caddy blew our minds. Rick Torres put the old Elvis away which I hired years ago.Rick was tremendous. Elvis performance was PRICELESS(Comments from my guests) including San Jose, Police Officers)etc. He was senstional and will book him again in a heartbeat. Rick made my party a SUCCESS. God Bless you and your Talent Rick. Sincerely, Sylvia Rogers -- Sylvia R, Pleasanton, CA, 10/1/2011
- He was wonderful! -- Lyzz Z, Turlock, CA, 4/13/2011
- Let me first say that I only gave Rick a 4.5 for his professionalism and not a 5 because he was more welcoming and fun than a business man which impressed me the most. He was a wonderful wonderful performer and very accomodating to all of our party needs, he exceeded our expectations and our satisfaction 100% and I would highly recommend him for any event if you are thinking of hiring (ELVIS). My son is 16 years old and a huge Elvis fan. He loved every second of the performance. I am getting married next year and concidering asking my fiance if we can have him back at the reception just for fun. Rick, thank you again for making my sons day more special! -- Kristina M, San Mateo, CA, 4/10/2011
- He took the party from good to great. He was fabulous and fun. -- Jolie O, San Jose, CA, 5/21/2011

- Good Job :) thanks Gloria Melendrez -- Alicia B, Lemoore, CA, 4/21/2011
- What an awesome entertainer and a great time we all had! DJ Rick was professional, a pleasure to work with, but most importantly a great Elvis! Everyone ranted about how great he was and kept the crowd engaged! I'm spreading the word to all my friends to book him if they ever need a great entertainer! -- Susan O, San Jose, CA, 8/6/2011

- Rick was perfect. He is very talented. He performed at my mother's 95th BD party. He was patient and gracious. Ocverall, an awesome experience -- Melanie M, Alamo, CA, 8/27/2011
- Our residents at our skilled nursing facility were so excited to attend the event we had scheduled with Rick (Elvis Impersonator). He was very engaging and enthusiastic with our residents and they enjoyed the songs he sang. We have had him perform at several events at our facility, each time he is more entertaining. A recent event we had in our parking lot, Elvis drive up in his pink cadillac and what a treat it was for our residents. Everyone was so excited and had a great time listening to the music and taking pictures, what a great day. We will definitely have him come back for future events.

- This is the third time Nimitz Elementary has hired Rick Torres for one of our events. I can't say enough good things about him. He is very easy to work with, very professional, likes to be around the kids, makes sure the songs are appropriate, is always on time and is very accommodating. -- Debbie C, Sunnyvale, CA, 10/28/2011
- He was on time and very professional! I would hire him again.
-- Billie R, Fremont, CA, 10/22/2011
- Rick was amazing! My mom said he sang so well and so did my other guests. He was personable and very friendly. We appreciated him taking the time to take pictures and sign autographs. Would defintley recommend him for another party if given the chance. -- Melissa S, Milpitas, CA, 1/7/2012
- Rick I should say ELVIS ROCKS!!!
Elvis was the hit of the party!!! Everyone loved it. It was amazing how well he could sing with the sound system all coming from this portable system that rolles in. and this was in a restaraunt. can;t imagine what he would be like on a stage. And the costumes, the rings , the scarfs everything was fantastic...
I think others from the party will be inviting elvis to their parties in future
-- Mario P, San Jose, CA, 1/7/2012
- Rick has been DJ'ing for my family for over 6 years. We are a large family and have MANY events even extended family Rick DJ's for.
There are more words of praise than I have room for for Rick. He DJ'd my daughter's sweet 16 and made a chaotic mess run so smooth, his assistant Bobby is the best, they could not be a better team.
I will be getting married next year and guess who my DJ is????
Thank you more than you will ever know Rick and Bobby :) -- Olympia M, San Jose, CA, 12/17/2011
- Rick is a true professional, a real showman and crowd pleaser. We've had Rick perform an Elvis tribute for us in the past, but yesterday we had him do a DJ/Karaoke set-up. Wow! A great system, great song selection, and we already knew----he's a great singer! Everyone at our company party had a fabulous time and enjoyed the music, karaoke, and of course, our special song requests of Elvis. Many people told me that they thought it was an actual Elvis track---until they turned around and saw Rick singing. The night couldn't have gone any better. THANKS ELVIS!!! -- Jennifer J, San Jose, CA, 12/15/2011
- Rick was fantastic! We had to move the loaction of the party at the last minute and Rick was so accommodating,,,he showed up on time and his performance was 5 stars!!! He had us all dancing and clapping. We had such a great time watching him and listening to him sing and do his Elvis moves,,,Thank you Rick for a great performance. You made the party!!
Joe -- Joe D, San Jose, CA, 12/10/2011

- It was certainly a great experience - from handling the contract to seeing the performance. Rick made the Christmas Party the best ever! Thank you. -- Jackie L, San Ramon, CA, 12/3/2011
- Rick was able to draw an even bigger crowd of shoppers this week! He now has a following of local shoppers that come to Gilroy Premium Outlets just to see him perform (and get a little shopping done). As a matter of fact we had phone calls from shoppers that wanted to confirm the date, time and location of his performance! As always, we are completely satisfied with his professionalism and talent. We look forward to having him entertain with us again... -- Heather R, Gilroy, CA, 12/18/2011
- We have hired Rick a number of time at Gilroy Premium Outlets beause of his professionalism and great ability to captivate our shoppers. He continually does an amazing job at entertaining our shoppers and is always a pleasure to work with. -- Heather R, Gilroy, CA, 12/11/2011
- "Elvis" was a surprise to all the guests...and they were all equally surprised, excited, and impressed with his performance. He sang, danced, and gave it his all...then, everyone went outside to his pink caddy for photos and a ride around, Elvis style. I would highly recommend him for any special occation. From the eldest (70+) to the youngest (4 months)...and everyone in between, everyone loved him!! The following day, we got lots of calls from folks to tell us how much they enjoyed Rick's performance. -- Jack K, South San Francisco, CA, 11/26/2011
- Great experience and great entertainment...
Rick is very responsive and very accommodating, so easy to work with. -- Debbie S, Pleasanton, CA, 12/9/2011

Thanks Again Elvis
Bertha Salinas -- Danny S, Morgan Hill, CA, 12/26/2011
- This was the first time that I had ever done an event like this and it was a great experince. Rick was very professional and helped with any questions that I had along the whole process. I could call him anytime with questions and he would always give me a straight answer. He was very helpful when it came to making extra money for our event and helped in anyway that he could. His show was one of the coolest things that I have ever seen! He brought lights and lasers, smoke and best of all was his huge Elvis sign that lit up behind him the whole time during his show. He was great with the crowd! Everyone that attened the event loved him and enjoyed the show very much! -- Kolbie C, Chowchilla, CA, 12/31/2011
- Rick was absolutely incredible. Not only was he professional, easy to work with, and accommodating (he was willing to work with our budget), he was also an astounding performer. It was so clear to our entire office how much Rick loves what he does. He 100% delivered on his offer, I so look forward to the possibility of working with him again.
I highly recommend looking at Ricks website, not a single other performer who gave me a bid could offer song/suit selection...money well spent.
Thanks Rick! -- Tiffany F, Palo Alto, CA, 1/20/2012
