Provided by YP.comThis place is one of my favs, as a matter fact it is number one on my list! I just had the opportunity to book this venue for my 30th birthday and it was worth every penny. I definitely had a time to remember and such positive energy from all staff. Everyone is professional, listens to your ideas, and some how makes the place come to light! Thank you Friends for making my birthday one for the books!

I used this location for my 40th birthday. I went to see the hall and loved it. I asked Jean (The Owner) What the deposit would be and her reply was that the hall needed to be paid off by Jan 31st to get the special. Therefore, this would lead one to believe that there was no deposit needed immediately. Anyway things went bad quickly. I gave her 100 deposit and she called me stating that wasn't enough to hold the date. Now before she debited my card that should have been explained. We worked through that. I paid the hall off January 31st for a party on March 22nd. She emailed me a contract and never went over it at all. 2 days prior to my party she calls me stating that there was a 125.00 bar tender fee which she never mentioned in January or February yet she mentions it 2 days before my party. She and her friends were at the party the entire time. She tried to shut my party down at 11. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL! Who has ever heard of anyone getting out of a party by at 12 on the dot. She even tried to take my plates by kicking them under the table but someone notified my husband because they saw her and he looked under the table and got my stuff. This lady is a con artist that tries to get over on people by adding hidden fees and not going over her contract with you at all. She called my party planner stating that music was too loud and so on. ITS A HALL AND A PARTY. I would not suggest that anyone use this establishment until she learns how to be a professional business woman.

I was very disappointed how they treated my guest when I rented this place put for my wedding reception. They are very rude and unprofessional. I would never recommend them and feel bad for anyone who had to endure what my guest and I had to endure for my occasion.

Provided by YP.comMy grandmother's 90th birthday lunch was a huge success. The decor, food and service was exceptional. Jean was very attentive to the guest of honor. I was extremely impressed and would use the facility again if the need arises.
