They were so kind to allow us to bring in our own centerpieces and our papel picado, which we carefully hung ourselves). From start to finish, the staff at Garden Manor were professional, attentive, and easy to work with. They always responded to our questions quickly, offered helpful advice during planning and contract signing, and made the process stress-free. The venue itself is beautiful--modern, spotless, and so elegant that it needs little to no extra decoration. Our guests loved it, and so did we! I would absolutely recommend The Garden Manor to any couple looking for a venue with excellent service and a stunning space.

How do I start with this one. It was a cluster if your looking for a simple summary of this fiasco…read morethat this horrible place pretended to disguise as a formal banquet hall. The incident started with a sweet 16 that my family booked there. First of all, the bill was why to high for just a hall with no food or decorations. Not even an open bar was offered for the $5,000.00 price tag. There was a young lady when we walked I who was asked to make sure that invites were in hand and that wasn't the case. I had to ask her twice during the night to continue to do her job. The next gross level of horrible service came from the bartenders who not only didn't know how to mix a drink, they were to check IDs that according to them is their policy. I know of at least 3 family members who are not 21 who got drinks. This was discovered after the end of the night when one of our aunt's called to let me know that her 19 year old was intoxicated. If you think this is the end, please read on. At the end of the night the banquet hall manager explained that the liquor that we had purchased,. Over $600 worth needed to be inventoried so we would be able to take back the rest of our spirits until Monday when the inventory was completed. Well, Monday comes around and more than half of the alcohol that was left over was magically gone. I mean, how doea this happen? I asked my aunt that night where in the contract this was written and she said that it was the agreement that she signed. I asked her again a couple of days later and she still was reluctant bro let me see it because I knew that this was a horrible way to do business. I ask that anyone looking for a banquet hall and you find yourself stumbling across this "gem", look elsewhere. The place is dated, the restrooms were not clean, the staff is very disorganized, and their practices are worst of all. There are way more options out there.

Finding the right venue is stressful enough so you'd always hope to have someone as kind as Scout! We hosted a pop-up for our small jewelry business, and it was perfect. This beautiful space can be used for more than weddings. The venue itself was the perfect size. The fact that we didn't have to bring our own tables or chairs is such a huge plus. And the fact that there's a huge free parking lot for the venue is enough to want to book the place. Beautiful interiors, comfortable temperature. Everyone loved it. I hope to do another event here!

I recently hosted an event at Palace Regency in Cicero and unfortunately had a very disappointing…read moreexperience. Communication with the owner was poor from the start. Calls and messages often went unanswered, and when I raised concerns about issues during the event, they were dismissed rather than addressed. On the day of the event, several things went wrong. Dinner service started late, the food was served cold, and there was only one bartender for approximately 130 guests. Drinks that were supposed to be served during dinner were never delivered. When I asked staff for assistance, no one was able to help or identify a point person in charge. Additionally, the venue was still being set up when it was supposed to be ready, which added unnecessary stress while I was trying to decorate and prepare. Instead of offering a meaningful resolution, I was offered a small discount for a future event and tickets to a band, which felt inappropriate given the situation. Overall, I was unable to fully enjoy my mother's event because I was busy managing issues that should have been handled by the venue. I would not recommend Palace Regency based on my experience.

The service was outstanding, and the team worked closely with us to stay within our budget while still delivering maximum value. We truly felt like we got the most bang for our buck. A huge shout out to Kelly, our event planner, who was there from start to finish ensuring that no detail was overlooked. She made hosting this event incredibly easy and handled everything seamlessly, which allowed us to focus on our members and enjoying the evening. Having everything in house, including catering, music, and bar service, made the event run smoothly and stress free. Our guests couldn't stop raving about the food, and the bartender kept the drinks flowing all night. The ultimate compliment? Several of our members have already booked their own events at HK Banquets after attending ours. We highly recommend HK Banquets for any organization or business looking for a professional, well run, and enjoyable event experience.
