Last Saturday, we had the pleasure of attending a Sweet 16 party at this venue, and it left us with…read morea mix of impressions, from the grandeur of the ballroom to some notable service quirks. The grand ballroom made an impressive first impression, with its tasteful lighting and well-decorated chairs and tables. However, it was noted that the absence of an elevated stage was a missed opportunity, even a modest one-foot platform could have enhanced the visual appeal of the hall. The culinary journey began with a delightful array of appetizers. The spinach fritters, accompanied by yogurt, chutney topping, and a spicy powder, stood out as a true culinary gem. The addition of this spice powder accentuated the flavors and made it a memorable dish. My personal favorite, Vada Pav, was also on the menu, and I couldn't resist enhancing its taste with a sprinkle of the spicy powder. The bar and appetizer service took place outside the hall, and here we encountered a few service hiccups. The bartender was notably absent, which led to a bit of confusion among the guests. However, a friendly waiter came to our rescue and promptly served our drinks when requested. The situation at the bar took an unexpected turn when another bartender, who seemed to be in a pleasant mood at first, began using profanity in a soft tone when asked why he wasn't present. His exact words "Get the fuck out of here" to his own co-worker - ten times in front of all the guests who are waiting in line at the Bar and in front of the guests who are getting their appetizers. This unexpected exchange, while bizarre, didn't overshadow the overall experience but left us a bit bewildered. Moving on to the main course, it was exactly as expected in a Mughal restaurant - rich and creamy, fulfilling the culinary desires of guests. The dessert spread was a highlight of the evening. The Moong Dal Halwa was a standout, leaving a lasting impression with its superb taste. The quality of the Kulfi was exceptional, rounding out the meal on a sweet note. The ambiance was elevated by a dance floor with flashing colorful lights, adding a lively touch to the event. The combination of good music, delectable food, and a pleasing atmosphere contributed to an enjoyable evening. In conclusion, the Sweet 16 party at this venue offered a blend of grandeur, delicious food, and vibrant ambiance. While the service quirks at the bar were unusual, they didn't overshadow the overall positive experience. The standout appetizers, rich main course, and delectable desserts ensured a satisfying culinary journey. The addition of the dance floor and good music added to the overall charm of the event, leaving us with fond memories of a night filled with good food and enjoyable moments.

I highly suggest you to think of alternate places. We had a horrible experience with this…read morelocation/team for our recent event of close to 200 guests. Their staff is unprofessional, rude and outright disrespectful. There is no coordination among them and you will be left calling them 6-7 times during the event. We had guests who left without eating because they didn't put the lunch out until 1:30 PM for a event that was suppose to end at 2:00 PM. I will not point to any certain individuals but will say the whole experience was regrettable. We selected this event and paid premium because we wanted to have a pleasant experience and a stress-free event, but it was opposite of that. For those who already have signed the contract or are thinking signing one. RE READ everything and get all clarification in writing because the "ok, no problem, don't worry and we will take care of it" will be of no use when things go wrong during the event.

Stop your search and book DJ Nik and MC Hiral!…read more A DJ and MC can truly make or break your wedding and Nik and Hiral not only made our event unbelievable but they made it unforgettable for us and all of our guests! We had a vision/vibe in mind for every event and Nik executed the vibe PERFECTLY. They had the dance floor packed the entire time - children, parents and even grandparents. My 87 year old Ba and 93 year old Dada couldn't even help themselves when it came to Nik's songs. Leading up to the wedding, this team was responsive, very helpful, and UNBELIEVABLY PROFESSIONAL! Our venue, other vendors, and even parents loved working with Nik and Hiral. Loved these two so much they are already booked for our next family wedding! Like I said - stop your search and book these two! They are INCREDIBLE

VIBES!!! We have NEVER experienced a more lit wedding. DJ Vik and MC Neil exceeded every. single…read more expectation that we had. Our family and friends cannot stop talking about how incredible this team is. We met with Neil months before the wedding, and he completely understood who we were as people, our music interests and the vibes we wanted to bring to our wedding--that meant the most to us. The dance floor was popping before the Sangeet even started. They had us crowd surfing, had our friends and family raging, and had us going all night long. You have to trust me here, if you want a team that pays attention to you, your story, who you are and what you love and then can bring that to an energy level that is unmatched- this is your dream team.

Level of overall Service is sub-standard Onsite experience was basic at best…read more No complimentary coffee service on a Saturday morning. Couldn't even buy a bagel or a muffin from the restaurant. Barely could buy a bottled water. Only reason I am giving it a 3 is because guestrooms were clean and decent. I canNOT recommend and would never stay here again. Much better choice in the area is Homewood Suites

EVENT VENUE REVIEW ONLY:…read more Last month, my husband and I visited the APA Hotel Woodbridge for an event. It was a friend's graduation party, which was being held inside Bogart's Lounge. It's a cute and versatile space with a chic and modern look. There are different seating areas available - chairs at tables, lounge-y seats, and by the bar. The bar is gorgeous looking and is a full bar. The barter was friendly; she was awesome and remembered people's orders. Loved the overall vibe!

I visited Studio Ligaya for one of their line dancing social events! We found their events on…read moreEventbrite and were immediately intrigued. Included in your ticket is roughly 4 hours of good vibes, dancing, socializing, and lots of great food! There was lumpia, pancit, barbecue chicken and bistec. Everything was so delicious!! There is also pizza for the children. It's a family friendly affair! :) When it was time to start some line dances, the instructors were so funny and kind. They were also very encouraging and easily explained the steps. My favorite saying of the night was "there is no missteps, just an accidental solo." And that kind of welcoming and sweet energy is what I loved so much about this studio! The owner, Tiffany Joy was an amazing host and her enthusiasm was infectious. I loved when the lights would turn down and we'd have mini dance parties in between line dances. It was such a fun time! There was also a cute photobooth experience, complete with props to capture the moment! You're able to text the photos to your phone; it was so easy to use. My only wish is that it wasn't so far from where I live - our group made the trek from Brooklyn! But honestly, it was so worth the trip and I can't wait to go back!

For the past 6 weeks, my son has been taking Zumbini classes led by The Studio Ligaya's owner,…read moreTiffany Joy, through a program run in collaboration with his school. Tiffany first came to do a demo at his school and my son asked me to sign him up for the after school program. He has been happy each time we pick him up, and the school sends us videos of him dancing along with Tiffany and his classmates. Earlier this week I was able to take a regular Zumba class led by Tiffany at her studio and it was incredible. Tiffany is warm and energetic, truly a burst of feel good energy. Her studio is clean and calming, with a club/concert vibe in the main Zumba room. Today, I attended by son's last day of Zumba and though the classes are very different, Tiffany shows up genuine, warm and encouraging in both! She finds ways to engage both her adult and children dancers and she does so flawlessly. It was so much fun talking to my son about our Zumba classes, it opened up conversation about Zumba that wasn't there when it was just him taking the classes. One of Tiffany's missions is to connect families and communities and I think she does a great job of executing this task.

We hired DJ Sunny for our Pakistani Mehndi & Reception event...they were on time, they were…read moreprofessional, they really brought great energy and overall really commanded the floor.  Sunny is a super nice guy who is accomodating to our needs, our crazy lineup and did a phenomenal job with the music.  Seriously, you will not go wrong hiring him.  He did our events at the Imperia & Rasoi III , he knew the venues and how to set up with the lighting and sound.  Indoor fireworks are a nice touch for the first dance! I recommend them but make sure the venue you book is going to be okay with them due to safety and fire code. I would call the venue before purchasing the indoor firework package.
