The event was held in the stone room, which was perfect for our party of around 30 guests. Susan and Kaylee worked directly with me to bring my vision to life and were always available to meet and answer any questions. Their preferred vendors were also awesome - shoutout to It's Graze-y and Wisteria Grove! The final decor was absolutely stunning, and the event turned out better than I could have imagined. Susan and Kaylee even set up an arts and crafts table for the children present to help keep them occupied! It was such an unexpected surprise and really touched my heart. So grateful to La Villa Bella for helping me create this special day for a beautiful growing family. Looking forward to future events here! Highly recommend!

First class service all the way with great food, entertainment, and an amazing location. This was for the classes of 79, 80. And 81 for South Hills High School. The event was held at the Via Verde Country Club which overlooks the San Dimas and Via Verde local area. It has amazing views and lots of nice sections like a ballroom, dining area, pool, tennis courts, and I believe a golf course. The service was first class, and spare no expenses. They had fire dancers, a girl in a large bubble in the pool, a sketch artist, live band, and an assortment of hor d'oeuvres throughout the evening including salmon, meatballs, veggie dishes, and shrimp. Everything was great. They had an entire indoor area as well with a spread of desserts. Very classy place and a great time. I recommend booking events here.

our family enjoyed an excellent celebratory dinner at casalena…read more EXCITEMENT (NOISE) LEVEL when we booked our reservation for 9 pm on saturday through open table, we did not expect the energy to be so high so late in the evening! the beautiful, expansive restaurant was buzzing with animated conversation that was even louder than a dim sum restaurant! we all needed to lean in a bit to hear one another. PARKING valet is available, but we found street parking on ventura blvd. FOOD 01. squash blossoms ($21 for 5 pc): 8.3/10 these were crispy and light, delightful to eat on their own without the tomato marinara sauce served on the side. casalena's squash blossoms had a strong, lovely hint of lemon that wasn't present in mother wolf's rendition. 02. chicken piccata ($29): 7.5/10 this main was served with a generous helping of potatoes mashed into a delicious velvet. 03. vodka lumaconi ($25): 9/10 this dish was the standout of the evening! the pasta shells were cooked al dente and coated in a slightly spicy, perfectly savory vodka sauce! casalena does not skimp on the sauce in any of their dishes! 04. tagliatelle ($29): 7/10 this pasta dish was not nearly as impressive. 05. tiramisu ($15): 7/10 since we mentioned the dinner was for a special occasion in our reservation, this dessert was served with a candle. while its presentation was lovely, its taste was underwhelming. the espresso was extremely subtle, and there was more madeline than mascarpone/cream. overall, our party of 4 was fully satiated after splitting 1 appetizer, 3 mains, and 1 dessert. service was lovely throughout! and as another yelpie mentioned in their review, their matchbook is very nice.

You can never find your server. Staff all have an attitude problem. There no parking. I honestly hate to leave reviews like this, but this place SUCKS! Oh if you want to go out for a date? Don't come here! When the entire place is a full house you can't even hear yourself think. Sounds like a school assembly! If you want cold food, & rude staff come here. I'll never COME BACK! You have to pay me to come here Lol.

Came through Eden on Brand and went with the trifecta: ribeye, crème brûlée, and a crafted cocktail…read moreand honestly, that's the way to experience this place. Starting with the ribeye: it landed on the table with a solid sear and that melting herb butter slowly pooling into the meat, which is always a good sign. Cooked to a true medium, it held onto its juices and had that balance of charred exterior and tender interior you want. Flavor-wise, it didn't need much seasoning was on point, and the butter just added that extra richness without taking over. It's not trying to compete with a high-end steakhouse, but for what Eden is a vibe-forward, social dining spot it absolutely delivers. Dessert kept the momentum going. The crème brûlée had that satisfying, audible crack when you tap into it, with a nicely torched sugar layer that wasn't burnt or bitter. Underneath, the custard was smooth, creamy, and not overly sweet, which made it easy to finish even after a full meal. It's a classic done right, and a strong closer if you're lingering at the table. The crafted cocktail lineup deserves a mention too. This isn't a place where drinks feel like an afterthought. Presentation is clean, flavors are balanced, and you can tell there's some intention behind the mix. Whether you're starting the night or transitioning into more of a lounge vibe, the drinks fit seamlessly into the overall experience. Speaking of vibe that's really Eden on Brand's main draw. The space leans into a dim, upscale lounge atmosphere with music that sets the tone without completely overpowering conversation. It feels like a hybrid between a dinner spot and a nightlife destination, making it ideal for date nights, birthdays, or just a night out where you don't want to bounce between multiple places. Service, like a lot of spots in this category, can vary. On a good night, staff are attentive and keep things moving at a nice pace. On a busier evening, there can be some lag. It's not a dealbreaker, but it's noticeable enough to mention just come with a little patience if the place is packed. Overall, Eden on Brand isn't about precision fine dining it's about the full experience. You're here for the ambiance, the energy, and a menu that hits enough high notes to keep you satisfied. Order smart (ribeye is a win), save room for dessert, and don't skip the cocktails.

Came with a large work group last night. We had a reservation so shouldn't have been a surprise…read more Only one other table had guests, but somehow they still seemed woefully understaffed. Not only that, they were either out of or didn't have enough of so many things. No shishito peppers, ran out of filet mignon after a handful of orders, out of the sake we ordered, only one bottle of the wine we ordered was available...it was almost comical. In addition, service was abysmally slow & forgetful, food came out cold, and wasn't that great/cooked correctly either. My "rare" filet mignon was medium at best. The "rib chop" my coworkers got was flaaat as hell and overcooked with inconsistent presentation/preparation. Can't send my overcooked filet back of course because it's the last one. Crème brûlée was actually soup in the middle. Bread pudding was dense and unpleasant. Potatoes were cold. Given our group dropped almost three grand, it was pretty damn lackluster. It's too bad because it's in a great location and has nice ambiance, but that doesn't make up for everything else. Brownie sundae was the lone highlight.

You can miss the place because you have to go through a narrow alleyway to get to the parking so just be aware of where the place is because I missed it and had to do a uturn.

The guest list was around 200 people and the place was able to accommodate. They had security guard and the workers here was very nice. I would recommend using the bathroom in the banquet hall because the bathroom near the outside patio area is small. They had a in n out truck to end the night and that's my favorite so it was a win win.
