Great Location with multiple entrances. The venue is large enough to hold nice sized events that can hold a good amount of vendors or you can simply enjoy a beautiful bar matizvah, quiencinera, wedding and anniversary parties, you name it and the party can be done at this Venue. The people in charge of the venue are extremely nice knowledgeable and helpful. They were able to supply catering and security and DJ making it very convenient on me to focus on my event and guests. Recommended this spot especially if you are on a budget and want to make some magic work!

We recently attended a birthday dinner party here at Great Event Studios in Tarzana and it is…read moreactually the same owner as Athena Studios in Nothridge where my daughte celebrated her 18th bday. This Tarzana location was actually really nice too - it's located along Ventura Blvd (closest cross street is Wilbur Ave.) right after McDonalds and next to Dominos Pizza and right across Lady C's Cafe. The closest fwy for those travelling from another city is Tampa ave. exit. The venue is really pretty, very well maintain, very clean and very aesthetic design and has its own restroom inside. The size of the venue is perfect for intimate parties with a group of 50-60. There was space for buffet table, bar for the drinks, Sushi bar, Photo Booth and DJ booth and a decent dance floor size was setup and it didn't feel like crowded at all. The balloons, table setting, decors etc was also done by great event (separate fee applies on top of the venue rental). I highly recommend this event place if you are planning on your next initimate party! You will love the place, and if you decide to also hire them for organizing and decorating the venue you will surely love it. The owners are very proffesional and really nice. There's also a lot of parking spaces as well as on the side street - from my own personal experience, we didn't have a hard time finding a parking spot and the part was on a Saturday night.

For the venue I attended the food was great and the table settings were elegant. Overall, a terrific place to book your event provided they do something about the mosquitoes.

I recently celebrated my daughter's baptism at Verdi and I have nothing but positive things to say…read moreabout Verdi Restaurant! It is such an amazing outdoor venue with a beautiful atmosphere, but what truly makes this place stand out is the incredible manager, Karina. Karina is absolutely amazing. Her customer service is truly out of this world, and she goes above and beyond to make sure everything is taken care of. From the very beginning of the planning process all the way through the event, she was there every step of the way. She was always just a text away, ready to answer my questions, help with anything I needed, and make sure I felt supported and comfortable throughout the entire process. The servers were also amazing and very attentive. Did not mind heating up food for me to eat at the end of the night when I got a chance to sit down. I visited several venues before finding Verdi, and the moment I walked in and was greeted by Karina with so much warmth, kindness, and genuine hospitality, I knew I didn't need to look anywhere else. She made me feel so welcomed and confident that I had found the right place. There truly aren't enough words to describe how wonderful Karina is and how much I appreciated everything she did for us. If you're looking for a beautiful venue with an amazing atmosphere and exceptional customer service, I highly recommend Verdi. You will not be disappointed!

Planning a baby shower from Texas for an event in California could have been stressful, but Teena…read moreat Athena Event Studio made the entire process seamless. She was wonderful to work with--always responding promptly, sending additional photos whenever I had questions, and offering extra rental items on-site so I didn't have to coordinate with multiple vendors. What you see online is exactly what you get, which I really appreciated. The venue itself is beautiful, spotless, and thoughtfully designed. The indoor space was perfect for our event, and the kitchen easily accommodated our professional catering team. Everything was clean, organized, and ready for us when we arrived. The reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 has nothing to do with Teena or the venue itself. My only concern was the surrounding area. While unloading decorations, we were approached by a homeless individual who was shouting nearby, which was a little unsettling. Parking was also somewhat limited, and I found myself worrying about our guests. Having worked in Northridge about 10 years ago, I remember it feeling much different than it does today. That said, this isn't a reflection on Teena or Athena Event Studio. She was an outstanding host, and the venue exceeded my expectations. I simply wanted future guests to be aware of the surrounding neighborhood so they can plan accordingly. I would absolutely recommend Athena Event Studio and would gladly work with Teena again.

Since we would much rather have her be a guest at our wedding and not working the entire day, we started our search for a day of coordinator that is fast to respond, detail oriented and assertive in time management. We were so happy and very relieved to have found Jenn of The Overwhelmed Bride! She was everything we were looking for and more. During our planning process, she was so fast in responding that we were never left wondering or worrying. She was very patient and helpful in guiding us when we were putting together our timeline and she was on point when getting all of our vendors commit to a time for setting up. We really didn't need to worry about any of the big or small details with Jenn at the helm. She even brought up great suggestions like having the families sit on opposite sides at the wedding so the groom's family can see my husband at the alter and my family can see me. On the big day, Jenn was very assertive in making sure everything is running according to the timeline laid out. She would usher everyone to where they needed to be without being too pushy. The decorations and all the small details were laid our perfectly and we're so happy that we had her on our team. I can't imagine doing this ourselves or really with anyone else. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is getting married!
