Same menu multiple times, that may be more about the organizer than the restaurant itself. Variations of pasta, roast beef, chicken and salmon. Nothing exciting. All was fine, but just typical catered fare. Beer list is really weak though, with only one local on tap and it's from Rhode Island, so not that local. No excuse for that these days. It's a pretty spot, tons of parking, so likely the reason people book it.

A 5-star private social club in the Platinum Clubs of America, it is situated on Whitney Avenue near the Yale University campus, and two blocks from Ingalls Rink and State Street (home to Modern Apizza, our favorite in the Pizza Capital of the World). The New Haven Lawn Club offers five comfortable, spacious overnight guest rooms and one suite, a main dining room seating 200, and a grand ballroom seating 300 that was being used for a wedding reception the night we stayed there. The fitness center and four squash courts are open 24x7. Outdoors, there is a pool, toddler pool, eight Hart-tru tennis courts, two paddle courts and a playground. Guests enjoy free parking and wifi. We enjoyed pre-game cocktails in the bar off the Grill Room, accommodating 100, where lunch and dinner are served Wednesday-Saturday, and where seasonal Sunday brunch and supper are available. A unique feature of the club is art exhibits hung in the rotunda outside the Grill Room. Rebuilt in 1931 after a fire destroyed the original two years earlier, the clubhouse was added to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places in 2003. It also is designated A New Haven Landmark by the New Haven Preservation Trust.

To the couple below: I'm sorry your experience wasn't a positive one. You seem pretty committed to…read moretrashing Lisa as you have posted on pretty much every platform which makes me start to question your accusations. I would say your circumstances are very unusual. All my vendors, family, and guests raved about their interactions with Lisa. My personal interaction is below and My brother recently got engaged and the first thing I said to him was you need to hire Lisa. This is the easiest, most heartfelt, and important review I have ever written. If I am honest, I started writing this review before my wedding because of how important Lisa was to me and I didn't want to miss a thing. Outside of saying yes to my husband, Lisa is the best decision I have ever made and I don't say that lightly. Despite getting pushback on hiring a planner, the minute I met Lisa, I knew I needed her. She's a complete powerhouse. I wanted someone showing up that day focused on my husband and I. The venue has priorities, catering has priorities, our families have priorities and I wanted someone in my corner covering my tracks if I dropped balls, and a sounding board as I navigated a once in a lifetime event. That's scratching the surface of what I got with Lisa. She is all I could have dreamed of plus a million more things! DON'T THINK, JUST BOOK LISA! Lisa is a masterclass on professionalism, kindness, organization, crisis management, and finesse. She keeps it real, highlights things that are important, and things that you can pass on all along with a nonchalant and humorous approach. Separately, we had an especially difficult vendor who brought me to tears on multiple occasions and could have derailed our entire event. If I had been in this alone, I would have been a basket case. Lisa would show up to any adversity in our process with a proactive assess, and say "Don't worry, I got this" and she did. She showed up direct, professional, and continued to tell us "you two are my priority, I don't care about anyone or anything else". To hear that during such a stressful time when you are getting pulled into a million and one different directions, is invaluable. I have tears in my eyes writing this review and thinking about how much comfort, knowledge, solace, support, and invaluable expertise Lisa provided me. I don't know what my day or mental state would have been like without her and thank my lucky stars I had her by my side. A perfect rating doesn't just happen, it requires expertise and commitment to your craft, a strong work ethic, and top notch customer service. That doesn't even begin to cover it with Lisa. She is hardworking (probably too much so, I don't think she has had a day off in years), attentive, accessible, knowledgeable, all along with a sense of humor and easy going, we got this kind of approach. Not to mention, her team!! Lisa was my right hand for planning and the sound of her voice on my wedding day made me burst into tears but HER TEAM, MY GOD!!! Shout out to Kelly, Chelsea and Marcy! Talk about complete ROCKSTARS!! There are no weak links with Lisa's team, they are the smartest, warmest, most boss ladies you'll ever come across. Given her perfect rating, she doesn't need my review and there aren't words to the fully capture the impact she made. I struck gold twice. Once, finding my husband then finding Lisa. She saved me, truly.

My husband and I had a terrible experience working with Lisa. As a person of color, my experience…read morewas especially hurtful. We felt that she was pushy, sarcastic, and condescending and did not have our best interests in mind. We also felt that she was inconsistent in responsiveness (sometimes taking a few weeks to reply and other times replying immediately) and while she helped us find a few vendors (photographer, DJ, catering), we had to follow up multiple times over months with her and ultimately ended up finding most vendors ourselves (venue, hair and makeup, videographer, florist). She was also inconsistent in recommending vendors that fit our budget and in helping us establish a realistic budget in the first place, and multiple times complained to family members about our budget being too small, but never mentioned that to us. Additionally, we got the sense that she kept brushing off our smaller wedding for larger events and was not very invested in planning our wedding. We also felt that she was not on our side when we ran into issues with vendors, and that she was not supportive of non-Western wedding traditions. For example, our caterer, who had said they could do a Chinese entree (whole grilled fish) and had scheduled a tasting for us, changed the tasting menu on us last minute. Lisa took their side and told us "nobody wants to eat that." Anything that was not a traditional American wedding, she judged, critiqued, and made a huge spectacle of, to the point where I felt uncomfortable integrating any cultural elements into our wedding! It's hard enough planning a Chinese-American wedding, and to have our planner actively dismiss my culture like that was beyond frustrating. Most hurtful was Lisa's response to our feedback. When we politely mentioned these concerns to her, instead of apologizing, she insulted me and blamed me for her behavior. She said I made her feel dumb and feel "like poo." Never once did she care about my feelings, and never once did she acknowledge how her behavior was hurtful. While we had been nothing but friendly, patient, and accommodating in our strained relationship, she lectured me on how to be nicer to her instead! We ultimately ended our contract with her due to the many difficulties in working with her. Even now, we are saddened that she has made several attempts to dispute or delete our reviews, and has not sincerely apologized for her behavior, instead continuing to be defensive and blaming me for her behavior. If you'd like to take a look at an interesting trend exemplifying what we suspect Lisa does to retaliate against those who speak up for themselves, take a look at her recent reviews posted in June 2023, especially after these negative ones. See how many directly contradict the negative reviews, to the point where it's an uncanny correlation, almost as if they were expressly written to dismiss our reviews. We are not accusing her of anything, and we are sure she knows soliciting reviews in bulk, and selectively soliciting reviews, violates most company policies. This is just a VERY interesting pattern!
