We rented the deck and the clubhouse and had them cater the wedding so there was not much I had to worry about. Everything fit into our budget and there were no surprise cost at the end of the night. We had about 100 people attend and held the wedding and the reception there. The food was AMAZING as well. Many of our friends who attended still tell us how amazing the venue was and how much fun they had.

For a reasonable rate, you rent the location, catering of food, servers and decor if you need it. It was a huge success! Steve and his staff were super friendly and helpful. This is a great location for any venue, especially in the spring and summer when you can go outdoors by the lake. Alas, ours was a winter celebration but the view was still fantastic and the added snow just added a magical quality to the whole thing. This is a great option, especially here in the Bronx where choices are few!

I cannot speak highly enough of Lizarda, our exceptional bartender! From the moment we walk in,…read moreLizarda makes us feel right at home. Her warm personality and attentive service truly set the tone for a wonderful evening. Not only does she craft amazing cocktails with skill and creativity, but she also takes the time to get to know her guests. It feels like we're not just customers but part of a family when we're at the bar. Her recommendations are always spot on, and she has an incredible knack for making everyone feel special. Might I add.. Everyone in this establishment is just so hospitable. If you're looking for a bartender who goes above and beyond, look no further than Lizarda. She has a gift for creating a welcoming atmosphere that keeps us coming back for more. Thank you, Lizarda, for making our nights out so memorable!

It looks like eggs you get from a buffet that's been sitting out. I'm disappointed. You go out to a restaurant and to be served food that's not fresh is not right. I've been here another time for dinner and I'm still not impressed. The ambience and the servers were nice. But I wouldn't come back for brunch or dinner.

The decorations was beautiful and they even did my centerpieces which where tall glasses with pink water. We added our own centerpieces which were gold mason jars and pink roses. She did a arch of balloons and gave us a baby shower couple chair. Normally you have to rent them. What was great about the space was the dance floor I love the back and white tiles. I also loved the stage for the cake to be the center of attention. The lights were amazing gave it that disco club scene and there was a bar (you bring your own drinks). There also is a coat room and what I loved is that we had a security camera just in case anything went wrong. The surround sound was great too it was a wonderful experience. I definitely recommend this place and am looking forward to throwing my daughters future birthday party here because it was a no hassle event. Week days are cheaper then weekends! Love

The place is very spacious, VIP sofas are comfortable and good looking color for pics. Altho, for some events they require the purchase of (4) bottles? to be seated in some VIP area, i guess that only works for large group of ppl.? For those who appreciate attractive waitress, this is your place. I only recommend ordering premium alcohol if at any of the two bars or/and buy the bottle of your preference. I just went yesterday, Fri. 12/12/25, to see Luis Vargas and found out the wrong way that they NO longer accept CREDIT/DEBIT CARDS.

Parking fills up quickly. They have an overflow lot a few blocks away, but it's an uphill walk to get back to the park. It's a great place to have a picnic. Lots of families and kids. We ate lunch at the cafe, but weren't super impressed by the food. The chipotle chickpeas were bland. The paper menus also didn't match what was actually available at the register. The line to order was quite long, but the wait for the food wasn't the worst. They had lots of seating indoors and a nice outdoor patio with more tables. We walked a few of the trails. Most were unpaved. We managed fine with a stroller, but the paths were a bit rocky. To see several sections, you need to climb stairs so a stroller was not the most convenient. The view of the Hudson, from both the upper and lower terraces, is wonderful and great for taking pictures. It was spring so they had tulips in bloom. Their shady grove of trees was cool to check out. I also loved the upper gardens.
