I recently attended a private event at GM 705. The event space was nice and intimate, but it looked…read morelike they had the ability for a lot of different settings. The table arrangements of tables, booth seating, and cocktail tables were great so you could have a cocktail hour, as well as a seated dinner. The food was from the Gianmarco's menu and it was absolutely delicious. We had three appetizers in the cocktail hour. One was a mushroom bruschetta, one was a fried oyster bruschetta, and a small Caprese appetizer. The fried oyster and Caprese appetizer were the only two I tried and they were so fresh and delicious. I really liked that the fried oyster crostini and the mushroom bruschetta were served on small slate square plates. It was a really unique way to serve the hors d'oeuvres and the presentation was beautiful. Everybody's main meals looked so delicious and I was very pleased with my lamb. It was cooked absolutely perfectly and so flavorful and tender. I will say that the chicken Parmesan looked phenomenal and we had one friend order the veal Parmesan and it was an insane amount of food. He had never tried veal before and he really enjoyed it! The servers and team there were so hospitable and friendly. I would definitely keep this place in mind in the future for private events.

A wedding party of 250 enjoyed themselves here this past weekend. Staff were on top of things. Salad and drinks were on the table and meals were brought out with very few questions. The dinner options were large and pretty good for banquet food. We were on the upper level and there was space albeit limited, for a jazz band, the wedding party, the cake, a DJ, dessert tables, photo tables and a few more. Outside there are areas for many photos and lounging. There are two parking lots. The lower one has a steep hill not conducive for high heels so take note. My only complaint is the outer drive was littered in mini liquor bottles. Maybe from former events or a current one not sure. Either way maybe some trash cans around the facility would prevent this.
