What an amazing venue in Lomita. This is right next to Corridor Flow the coffee shop that's a very…read morenice spot to hang out and have coffee. The space is perfect for small events. We attended an Anniversary and there were about 100 people or so and you can fit a good amount of tables depends how you set up. Love that as you enter they have a designated area for a DJ if you plan to have music which is great! The space has these cool wooden walls that add to the decor and the fun lighting that they provide for you. There is a little side room that is like storage and an extra bathroom there as well. The bathroom was very clean and spacious as well. There is a designated area with back entrance for placing food if you have catering and there is a spacious fridge for food and drinks as well. There is a fun opening area for a coffee space thats a nice touch. Def has a lot of potential to make it your own space and decorate how you wish. There is a small lot for parking and then there's lots of street parking as well so that wasn't a problem.

A huge thank you to Kristina, the co-owner and event manager, who went above and beyond to make my vision come to life. From the very beginning, she stayed in constant communication, keeping me updated every step of the way and making the entire planning process stress-free. I booked the decoration package, and it exceeded all of my expectations. Every detail was absolutely gorgeous--from the stunning balloon wall to the fresh flowers on each table. The space looked elegant, welcoming, and even more beautiful than I had imagined.

I truly debated whether or not to leave this review because our wedding day itself still had some…read morebeautiful moments. However, after reflecting on the entire planning process, I feel future couples deserve transparency before making such a large investment. To start with the positives: the venue itself created a beautiful atmosphere for our wedding, Critic's Choice Catering was loved by our guests, and several setup details, including the welcome table and cake tables, were set up as planned. Many guests complimented the food throughout the evening. Unfortunately, the planning process behind the scenes was extremely stressful and, at times, disappointing due to repeated communication issues, inconsistencies, and preventable mistakes. From the beginning, Kaycie (the founder and coordinator) sold us on the venue by emphasizing that it was "all-inclusive" and offered things other venues did not. During our initial meetings, I specifically asked for an overall quote that included a dinner package so we could determine whether the venue fit within our budget. I trusted her expertise and guidance when she provided us with pricing, and because it fell within our budget, we decided to move forward. Several months later, we discovered that we had actually been quoted for an appetizer package rather than a dinner package. Kaycie stated that we had mentioned possibly bringing in our own catering company, but that was simply a question we asked while exploring options. It was never confirmed that we would be using outside catering. The difference in pricing was substantial, and we felt misled. When we raised our concerns, we were told that we should have noticed the pricing difference and asked more questions before submitting our deposit. As first-time wedding planners, we relied on the expertise we were paying for and expected accurate information from the start. Another concern involved what was actually included with the venue. During our tour, Kaycie proudly showed us a large book of linen options and explained that they offered far more choices than other venues we had visited. Later, we learned that glassware, china, silverware, tables, chairs, linens, and other essentials were not included as we had believed. As people who had never planned a wedding before, we did not know these items would need to be rented separately. We often felt like information presented in person did not align with information later provided through email. For larger weddings, I would strongly encourage couples to get every detail in writing and verify exactly what is and is not included. At one point, we were told, "We have no control over how you read and interpret our literature." As clients relying on the venue's expertise and documentation, that response felt dismissive rather than helpful. One of the biggest disappointments was the seating chart. Kaycie sent me another bride's seating chart as a template and instructed me to follow that format. I did exactly that and even asked her to review it beforehand to make sure everything looked correct. She confirmed it was fine. On the wedding day, however, families were split apart, couples were separated, parents were seated at different tables, and children were not seated with their families. We later learned that she had told some of our guests she could not fully read the chart. Had that concern been communicated beforehand, I would have gladly clarified it or come in myself to ensure it was set up correctly. Instead, one of the most important organizational pieces of the reception was mishandled despite us paying for coordination services and setup assistance. There was also a serious issue involving one of the bartenders, who we later learned was terminated. Multiple guests informed us that he refused to serve drinks unless they tipped him, despite the fact that we paid for bartending services and supplied all of the alcohol ourselves. Guests reported feeling pressured to tip, and one guest was even told, "I have rent to pay," before being asked to send money directly to him. Another guest was left in tears after an uncomfortable interaction. We were also told he attempted to charge for premium tequila shots using tequila that we had personally provided. Several guests commented that drinks were inconsistent and tasted different throughout the evening. I do want to recognize Brendon, the operations manager, who was kind, professional, and genuinely apologetic. He listened to our concerns, acknowledged that these issues should not have happened, and took accountability for the areas where they fell short. His response was the first time we truly felt heard during this process. I understand that no wedding is perfect and that unexpected issues can arise. However, communication, accountability, and professionalism are critical when couples are investing significant time, trust, and money into one of the most important days of their lives.

It was a huge bonus being able to have our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception all in one place, which made the day so easy for us and our guests. A huge shoutout to their in-house caterer, Critics Choice Catering--they did not disappoint. Our guests couldn't stop raving about the appetizers and dinner, and there was more than enough food for everyone. We received so many compliments on the menu, and our guests left full and happy. A special thank you to Kaycie, who went above and beyond to make sure everything came together perfectly. We truly couldn't have asked for a better venue and team to help bring our wedding day to life. Highly recommend!

I had my daughters Quinceanera here in May. I wanted to leave my review on my experience. Katie the…read moreowner is super nice, considerate of everything up until your contract is over. I had reached out to Katie the very next day after my event to let her know how my experience went and certain things that were concerning . She was definitely not as nice or concerned about my complaints. Very unexpected. My daughter, fiancé and I went upstairs to use there restroom and help my daughter adjust her dress. We found three cases of beer, in the second room with the door closed. They were not there earlier when we went upstairs. Keep in mind there were three young staff working that night. Once we found the beer my fiancé confronted the main guy and he said they had to move the beer upstairs because they were moping downstairs in the kitchen. If you've seen this hall you know they could have moved the beer to the side hall way right out the kitchen and before the stairs. It didn't make sense why they would move it all the way upstairs. Also that it was not in the first room but second room with the door closed. The other issue I had here was I had bought a small cake for pictures and a sheet cake that was in the fridge. I had asked the staff if they were going to cut and pass out the cake and they confirmed they would. Come to find out at the end of the night cleaning up, the cake was still in the fridge. They only cut the small cake and placed the plates of cake on the counter. Who ever saw it grabbed cake and who ever didn't, didnt get any. More than half the party did not receive cake, not even my daughter. I had asked the guy "did everyone get cake" he confirmed yes, the sheet cake was extra. So I had an untouched sheet cake and most my guests didn't get any. I felt I just received excused from the staff as well as Katie for that night. Also keep in mind the person they had for photoboth comes off with attitude with her tone of voice. Last thing that went wrong was the staff giving my own professional DJ a hard time when he got to the hall to set up. We had fun but the staff isn't that great and unprofessional. This is my experience. Consider it, before booking.
