On the day of the wedding, everything went off without a hitch. The staff's attention to detail was truly commendable. Every element--from the setup to the timing of the events--was thoughtfully managed, and everything flowed smoothly throughout the entire evening. The pricing was fair, especially considering the quality of service and the beautiful setting. The food was absolutely delicious, and many of our guests commented on how much they enjoyed the meal. What truly stood out, however, was the ambiance. The venue itself is absolutely stunning and created the perfect atmosphere for such a special occasion. It felt elegant, warm, and magical all at once. My daughter's wedding was everything we hoped it would be and more. It was a truly unforgettable day, and I cannot thank The Hacienda enough for helping make it so perfect.

During that time, I made multiple phone calls and sent several emails, but unfortunately, I never received a response. Because of the complete lack of communication, we've decided to look elsewhere for a wedding venue. First impressions matter, and if a venue cannot respond to a prospective client who is simply trying to schedule a tour and receive a quote, it raises serious concerns about the level of service they provide throughout the planning process. While I can't speak to the quality of their events, I can speak to my experience as a potential customer, which was disappointing. Based on the lack of communication alone, I would not recommend this venue to other brides or families looking for a reliable and responsive wedding team.

From the moment we walked in, we knew the space was spacious and beautiful, but what really blew us and our guests away was the quality of the service and the 8 course meals. The Food: Usually, "wedding food" can be hit-or-miss, but the 8 course meal here was spectacular. Every dish was served hot, beautifully plated, and tasted like it came from a high-end restaurant. Our guests are still raving about the Peking Duck, the House Special Lobster with noodles and the appetizers during cocktail hour. They even handled our guests' dietary restrictions with total ease. The Open Bar: The open bar was a massive hit! The bartenders were professional, fast, and incredibly friendly. Even with a large crowd, there was never a long line, and the drinks were poured perfectly. Having a high-quality bar service kept the energy high and the dance floor packed all night long. The Staff: A huge thank you to Anh Tony and Anh Tuan and the entire team. They made sure everything ran smoothly so we could actually enjoy our night without worrying about the details. If you want a venue that looks stunning and treats your guests to an unforgettable meal and a great party, look no further than White Palace 2. Highly recommended! Crystal & Michael - 10.18.2025.

Unfortunately the food was not authentic, I wish they had kept the chefs when they bought the Seafood World restaurant. I had been in this White Palace 2 many times before when it was called Emerald restaurant. This venue is the best, it was really a beautiful night club serving Chinese food. They had New Years eve party every year and I will miss these forever. So if you are looking for a restaurant for your wedding reception, this is it. Most people are not that fussy, I notice people enjoy the ambiance and the beautiful décor for a memorable experience, I speak from my experience, my sister had her big birthday party and everybody I asked just loved the food. VACF requested a donation of $60 pp. The menu was very short, not your usual wedding menu. 1) The appetizers just had some chewy seafood, fried dough and oranges not the usual cold cuts and other delicacies. 2) The only good dish was the fried prawns in special sauce over noodles. 3) They did not even have a beef dish, the tofu was so bland I could not eat it. 4) Hainan chicken was so chewy, very fatty/greasy and bland the green sauce that came with it was also bland. 5) The fish was filet not whole fish like in many weddings I went to but it was tasty. 6) The fried rice was so bland nobody ate it, don't they try to put a little more soy sauce, there was hardly any eggs or char siu, not even enough onions for flavor. When my sister had her birthday party, she ordered the full wedding menu w lobster and only 3 out of 10 dishes were tasty. I'm writing this for my sister and cousin to take note, I will not attend my cousin 3rd live concert at WP, their sound system was loud and had echos, the sound is better here at WP2 but the food is the same recipes, not delicious and not worth the $150 I usually paid. I will of course attend next year VACF to support cancer survivors including myself. This year VACF throw a big party here. Dr Bich Lien, the founder husband just passed away of cancer, my husband just had a craniotomy so I feel her pain, she is a wonderful oncologist and accomplished humanitarian. She organized this annual event, she gave a heartfelt speech to open the reunion, God bless her, we had photobooths, raffles, entertainment with a show w singers, karaoke and an amazing ballerina. I could not believe I won a raffle prize. I'm looking forward to this annual event, the food to me was not important,it's the ambiance and the vibes that count and that added 1 star to my review.

No one wants to read a negative wedding venue review, and overall, our wedding day was wonderful. I…read moreunderstand that we were a difficult couple, especially due to all the restrictions with COVID guidelines. But I was hoping for a little more than we got, especially from the staff. The venue itself is beautiful. I knew as soon as we walked in that my (then) fiancee would love the place and that we were done looking at venues. The high ceilings, chandeliers, brick and hardwood... the whole aesthetic was amazing. The catering staff (the catering company owns the venue, so if you want to get married at The Estate, you have to hire Jay's Catering) was really good, and they worked with us to individually package to-go meals for our guests since we couldn't in good conscience have all of our guests eating together. Now for the difficulties. As I said before, our wedding was during COVID-19, so we dealt with a number of restrictions. We were also a difficult couple to deal with because we had to keep changing plans as the government placed greater restrictions and/or eased restrictions. We needed to be talking to the venue and catering coordinators quite a bit, as we increased and decreased guest counts and talked through all the different precautions that needed to be made. Toward the beginning of our working with them, both coordinators (Jeanne and Sierra) were very communicative and prompt, but as time wore on (and our wedding day grew closer) we were having more and more difficulty getting a hold of them. There was a point fairly early on where we realized that if I (the groom) called or emailed, I would get a terse, sometimes unhelpful response in a day or three. However, if my fiancee (the bride) called or emailed, she would get a prompt response that answered all of her questions thoroughly. As a groom who wanted to be involved in our wedding process, it was particularly irritating to be sidelined like this. The sound system wasn't what I was expecting. I help out from time to time with audio at church, so I'm used to working with venue sound systems. The Estate's sound system was set up more like a home theater. There were a few inputs, but everything was running through a central receiver rather than through a sound board. Normally this wouldn't have been a problem, but since it was COVID season, we were livestreaming the ceremony. Their system was incapable of handling that complication, so we ended up paying the livestream company an additional fee to bring in their own sound equipment so that we could have sound for both the in person attendees as well as the livestream viewers. There's a small parking lot in the back that is shared by some nearby vendors, and we were told that we'd have the whole lot (about 35 spaces) for our guests to use. When we arrived on the morning of our wedding, we were told that we were able to use about 8 spaces because the venue coordinator hadn't reserved the parking lot. We were also supposed to have a curtain that divided the main room so that the bride wouldn't be seen too early. That curtain was nowhere to be seen. After a lot of running around and numerous phone calls, our wedding coordinator discovered that the curtain had been used at a different venue the previous day (the catering company owns multiple venues) and wasn't returned. Our coordinator was able to find a spare curtain that was much smaller, but got the job done, but the whole situation left us feeling rather disappointed. So all in all, we were happy with the way things ended up looking, but there were several little things that added up to a large amount of unnecessary frustration.

Their kindness, professionalism, and warmth made a difficult time so much easier, and I am beyond grateful for the experience. The venue itself is stunning, elegant, light, airy, and uplifting, which was exactly what we wanted for this occasion. The room's clean, timeless aesthetic required little decoration, yet it felt warm and intimate. The table spacing was perfect, offering both comfort and closeness for our guests. The accommodations were top-notch. The team provided a large screen and laptop for our video montage, a cable to play personal music through the in-house speaker system, as well as a microphone and podium. They even supplied an easel for our loved one's portrait and an additional table for photographs, ensuring that every personal touch was seamlessly integrated. The linen selection was extensive, but we opted for classic all-white linens, which complemented the elegant setting beautifully. The service was impeccable. Ana and Bryana were not only responsive, professional, and incredibly accommodating, but also genuinely kind and authentic, a quality that extended to the entire staff. They ensured that everything ran smoothly, and their attention to detail did not go unnoticed. The water and tea pitchers were always full, plates were cleared discreetly, and the overall hospitality was second to none. The food was exceptional, our guests couldn't stop raving about it! While everything was incredibly delicious, the Waldorf salad, fresh vegetables, warm rolls, chicken and cookies were particular standouts. It's almost impossible to find a meal of this caliber for just $30 per person, making it not only a beautiful event but an outstanding value. Logistics were effortless. The club's entrance was easily accessible, parking was a breeze, and the staff even allowed me early access to set up table centerpieces and our photograph table. Set-up and breakdown were seamless, handled efficiently and professionally. If I had to describe this experience in one word: EXCEPTIONAL! The level of care, service, and quality provided by Mile Square Golf Course exceeded every expectation. I am so grateful to have chosen them for this special event and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a truly elegant, stress-free, and beautifully executed gathering.
