Had my wedding here a few days ago. I have to say they helped me have my dream wedding! Giselle was always available for me when I contacted her with questions and concerned. Everyone who works here seemed so happy for me and so happy to help me out. No matter what hiccups wedding planning brought up, they were always a phone call away. I am so pleased with my experience, the cost of my wedding, and the attention I received! read more

Sterling Banquet Hall - My dad walking me down the aisle - Caterers Near Me - Houston, Texas

See all

Parrrrrtay... wooohoooo! This hall was nice!!! Location: This hall is located on the beltway feeder. Go to fast and pass it up and you are in for the longest U-Turn. Please us GPS so you won't pass it up, otherwise drive really slowly.. Parking: Parking was great for us because we got there before many of the guests. However, when we left the hall we saw a super jam packed hall. The hall: The hall was gorgeous, however, walking up to the door was a bit confusing. For the wedding we attended signage was not out yet, so we were not sure of which door to choose. There are 2 sides: Hall A and Hall B. We chose the hall on the right and it happened to be correct. Yay! It works for some, but I am not a fan of the possibility of 2 similar events happening at the same time, which is what happened indeed. Sheeeesh! There were people in Hall A's wedding on accident and vice versa. Glad we got there early because it was terribly confusing. As Service: The service was great! The bar tender poured great drinks. The only thing I could think of is from time to time we couldn't find anyone at the bar, so perhaps he was the only one on duty. I am not sure if the water glasses were from the hall/facility, but they were alllllll different. Sheeeeesh. It was a hodge-podge of drinking glasses. The restrooms: Very nice and clean. I think they may be shared between the 2 halls because you have to technically exit the hall and walk down a super long hallway to get to it. Not quite sure as I didn't go often. Sound: Hmmmmm, where should we start. I am not a big fan of a multi-hall facility for many reasons, but especially this... we heard the other wedding clearly while our Emcee was hosting. While the other party had bumping music, it was quite hard to concentrate on whatever the Emcee was saying. I don't know if the DJs were supposed to keep under a certain decibel, but they didn't. It was the battle if the largest DJ! Either way, the hall is nice and has potential. If mutli hall facilities is your style... go for it for sure! It has many nice qualities, but some are less practical! read more

I Got #HitchedToAHodge! I would like to post a quick review on venue and vendors. Venue: Sterling Banquet Facilities (4.5 out of 5) We did a very much all inclusive package. We hired several of their own vendors. (Chapel, Photo booth, catering, decorating, & DJ) Ali, the owner was very patient and worked with me all the way. I had to prove my wedding SEVERAL times and he was ok with it! I did end up paying a small date change fee, but that's because we changed it so many times . I will say this... YOU OR YOUR WEDDING PLANNER NEED TO STAY ON TOP OF THE VENUE. They are busy. It seems like they have several events every weekend so you sometimes need to call them and schedule viewing and planning sessions. THIS VENUE ACCEPTS PAYMENT PLANS! Yay! I do like that we can BYOAlcohol. I brought in kegs, wine, soju, & mixers. They provided all non alcoholic drinks including coffee after dessert! I got to the venue several hours early and put in the last minute details (I planned and ran my entire wedding. - no wedding planner or day of coordinator) my girls helped me stay on schedule but it was perfect! The place is beautiful and photos came out great. Star Photobooth provided the coolest inflatable photo booth! I did provide a scrapbook and stickers and markers to decorate though. BEST IDEA EVER I HIGHLY SUGGEST DOING ONE! The DJ Palillo was great. Followed my schedule to the T. Like I said, I ran my wedding, so I would walk up to him and just confirm before we started. Easy. Great music and awesome looking set up! The Knot Studio - John was the most fun and creative photographer! I was very particular and specific on certain spots that I had to absolutely have and he executed them out beautifully. He took the candid shots and the more posed ones. He gave out posing ideas and then just let us do us! Love him and his work! Any questions, feel free to ask! BY THE WAY! I WOULD RECOMMEND DOING A DRESS REVEAL TO YOUR BRIDESMAIDS ON THE DAY OF THE WEDDING. IT WAS EPIC. read more

You know, I almost chose this venue, but what I didn't like was the fact that the two spaces were right next to each other. It would be easy to have unknown guests roam into your little side of the world. The hall to your left, was pretty, with the lace draping, but it was divided in an awkward way, which would split up your guests and cause divisions. It gave the space a more cramped feeling than what really existed. It was the smaller room, and I think it had more to do with the shape of the room then anything else. This room had the chivari chairs, in case you love that type of chair. Apparently, that's a wedding thing. The hall to the right, was the one I really liked. It was so pretty and I found the uplighting unncessary as the chandeliers took care of the ambience of the room. The standard centerpieces were okay, but the room had a nice romantic and intimate appeal. The outside of the venue is this nice brick design, though some odd warehouses/retailers surround it. We were worried about parking and my future sister in law and mother in law checked the place out when there was an event. They are two nice ladies, harmless, cute, but if they were able to confirm there was parking even when two events were happening and the security guard didn't question them going in at all during the event, it just made me wonder what would have happened. I've learned vendors are pretty easy going about seeing the space when they are in set up. If they say otherwise, they are lying! But to be able to check out a venue when an event is occuring, well you can see why I worried about guests coming in and out. I would have most likely hired actual police officers. Yes, they have security, but I don't think they have proven themselves. Either that or they need to find a new security firm. The man we spoke to was nice, but our biggest issue wasn't even the guest coming in from one room to another as we had a plan for that. It was the whole catering issue. We learned from the Hammerly location they have their catering from a Colombian restaurant near Highway 6. An appealing aspect about Sterling is you can buy out the catering. We just wanted to know who the caterer was and he refused to tell us. I didn't get it. Apparently some tacky folks would pretend they were going to use Sterling and go there for a free meal. I mean, I get that, you don't want to give people free meals who are taking advantage of you, but you can't even tell us who caters. That drove us crazy. Pretty venue, cheap prices, some negatives, but overall a good place to look at when considering venues for your wedding. read more

I recently attended a wedding at Sterling Banquet hall for a friend of mine and the service was great! The wedding party received excellent treatment and service from the managers and the wait staff. All of the staff was very professional and made sure that I and all guests were attended to. The hall decor was set up as the bride wanted from the center pieces to the stage. All things were looked after and were done as promised on the signed contract. I would definitely recommend Sterling Banquet Hall for your next party. read more

We had a great experience with this place, my cousin recently got married here and I was a part of the preparations from finding the venue to talking to the event coordinators and setting up the floor plan etc. They were so patient with us especially Sam he has amazing customer service and is a great person to deal with. They made her dream wedding come true. Our family will def recommend them and go back for future parties and events. read more

This place is a nightmare! DO NOT BOOK HERE!! I made the horrific mistake of trusting them and came out with a horrible experience for my daughter's birthday!! This place is cheap, dishonest and that will rob you every chance they get! GO SOMEWHERE ELSE FOR YOUR PARTIES! THEY charged one of my guests 150.00 to sit at a table when there were 2 empty tables on another side!!! ABSOLUTELY DISPICABLE!!!! I WOULD GIVE THEM ZERO STARS IF I COULD!!!!! read more

Amazing staff treats their guest like family and not just a customer. They are always a phone call away with any questions or concerns you may have. I been to other halls and no one could top it off like Sterling. Thank you very much Sam for all your help and staff and I definitely look forward to doing business with them again. read more

We just finish using this Hall for my daughters wedding. Everything was perfect BUT ever since the wedding started the air condition was poor! The hall was hot from the get go! We kept asking them to turn it down several times and they kept saying they did but never did it felt at least cool in the hall. It felt great towards the dressing room and restroom but the hall was HOT!! The staff there are great! Very attentive. The size was perfect for 200 guests. I hate to rate it only 3 stars but the air condition system is a must to have specially in this Houston heat!!! read more

Recently celebrated our wedding on November 1st, everything was wonderful! From the staff at the bar. to the food, to the decorations, to our event producer Mr. Syed, he was very nice and helpful throughout the whole process he also explained everything in detail. My husband and I will definitely be recommending Sterling Banquet Hall to our friends and family for their events, although a lot of the people who attended the wedding loved it as well. read more

We booked this venue a few months back and at the time we booked it, it had draping from the ceilings (still does on their website videos and pI went in to make a payment and noticed that there was no longer draping. I asked if they were going to put it back and was told by their onsite representative that the Fire Marshall told them they had to remove it. The venue did not notify its clients and our event is less than 7 months away. I've asked the owners to call me to rectify this decor as it was one of the reasons we went with this venue. There are so many other venues that offer this elegant touch - I hope this owner will be willing to honor its original decor or at least be willing to cover some wall draping of some sort. To be continued... Update - venue and I have compromised, we shall see how this will work for our event. read more

Very beautiful hall! At the time of searching for a hall to do my daughter's quinceañera we walked into this one and my daughter said let's not look anymore. We had the friendliest staff. We loved it!!! read more

Let's start off by saying this was the worst decision I have made in a long time. Please do not deal with these people. The management is not there to help you but only to get your money. Please do not do business with them! read more

We had our son's 1st birthday party at the Hammerly location with 230 guests. There was plenty of parking, separate, open area where appetizers and lunch was held, as well as a bar area for drinks. The room was big enough to comfortably mingle around the tables and stage size was perfect for our decor. Customer service was excellent as well. Give them a call and check out the locations. read more

For my sister's wedding it was a nightmare dealing with this place manager, the venue itself is descent but the people that work there just plain suck!! Not helpful at all, first of all their projector didn't work and had already payed for it and of course they didn't refund us!!! Even though we notified the manager and he couldn't make it work. Also we needed more chairs and the manager refuse to provide us with more. read more

I would like to say that my wife and I had a nice wedding at this venue. But working with the owners (Zakiya and Saiyed) was a nightmare to say the least. Where do I begin. Firstly, we paid for a dj through the venue. We were told there were a handful of DJ's we could choose from. We were told that they would find us an Arab DJ as that was our preference. Five months go by with one month left until our wedding day and they told us they were unable to find us an Arab DJ and they no longer work with the other DJ's that we were told they work with and returned our money. Another problem we had was with the sofa on the stage. Zakia didn't have any sofas to choose from so she was going to go buy some sofas and charge us to use them for the day, which was fine. What wasn't fine was the two options she gave us had a price tag on them for $500 and she was going to charge us $500 to rent the sofas for one day. Needless to say we went elsewhere for the sofas. Another problem, Zakia calls me and tells me that since we are serving both salad and dessert, she can only provide plates for one of the items and we would have to bring in our own plates for the other. My wife calls Saiyed and tells him that is absurd and he tells her not to worry and that plates will be provided for both salad and dessert. The day before our wedding we call Saiyed to confirm a list of items to make sure things we're set for the wedding including the plates. Regarding the plates, he told us to bring disposable plates to serve the cake! THE DAY BEFORE OUR WEDDING!!! After my wife talked to him panicking, he said he would provide the plates and he did. But I really couldn't believe this was happening. Also we were told by the owners that we had two options for dinner, either buffet style or sit down dinner. We wanted a sit down dinner and they told us that required to pay for additional waiter so that they could serve the food. That was fine, we paid for the waiters because we wanted a sit down dinner. On the day of our wedding, just minutes before dinner was to be served, they started to prepare the dinner buffet style. When I had talked to the waiter, he said the owner told him we were getting buffet style even though we paid for the extra waiters to have a sit down dinner for our guests. It took a lot of frustrations to end up getting what we paid for. Lastly to top all this off, There was a period of 3 weeks in which Zakia kept ignoring my wife's phone calls and text messages. My wife had to drive all the way to the venue and voiced her frustrations to whoever was working there letting them know zakia isn't returning any any of her calls and texts. Within 5 minutes zakia just so happened to call my wife to see how things were going. This was all complete BULL Overall this experience was such a nightmare going through the planning stages of our wedding. We literally are in shock how this place has decent reviews. My advice to everyone, is STAY AWAY! They are very friendly in the beginning and seem like they will be easy to work with but unfortunately that was NOT the case for us. The reason why we had a beautiful was because we got everything done by a 3rd party. We thought we were going to get everything through sterling but because of their lack of communication and professionalism, we had to get everything else done else where. I would give 0 stars if I could. read more

We held my sons first birthday party and it was amazing. They have two halls that are both designed well. It's a family business and we felt like we were treated like family from beginning to end. While shopping around for different spaces. I found that their prices were very reasonable. They have different color table covering and chair covering you can choose from. The best thing is that they have options to cater from them or bring outside food. We chose to bring food from a caterer outside. Being that it's my sons first birthday, he's going to look back at these photo albums and hope he loves what we did for him. Sterling Banquet hall was part of that memory. Definitely going to come back to them for any other special events as they have different locations with different decor. read more

Great experience, host my daughters birthday gala at one of their locations ! We had over 200 guests , they really made sure everything was great , people loved the decor and food . We are planning another party in about a year or so, will definitely consider this place again. read more

I just celebrated my union this past Saturday 08/04/19 at location 1, Hall B! Sterling made it a breeze, I enjoyed working with the staff, the freedom to bring in my own liquor is HUGE plus seeing as both my families drink and party well. My event planner (that I hired outside of Sterling) in combination with services provided by the faculty made my day UNBELIEVABLE! I'm still getting calls about how beautiful everything was. The only bump was that we asked for the pillars in the aisle of the chapel to be removed and they weren't; no biggie we took care of it and kept moving. ***NOTE*** they provide the chafers but not the burners. I will seriously recommend any one of the faculties they provide. read more

My husband and I just had our wedding reception here this past Saturday October 19 and it was amazing. The food was great, decorations were beautiful, and staff was so friendly. We were 100% satisfied. Very beautiful venue! read more

Everything was perfect, didn't have to worry about anything. Had great customer service, spacious hall and very clean restrooms. Thank you Sterling Banquet Hall! read more

Sterling Banquet Hall - Caterers Near Me - Houston, Texas

My sister inlaw booked this venue for her wedding on September 1, 2017. Hurricane Harvey hit and caused historic flooding and damage up and down the Texas/gulf coast. When my sister in law called to cancel their event (since the city is flooded, under a curfew, and so many people lost everything) the owners refused to give her back any of their money and were extremely rude to her. This place does not deserve your business! They do not support the community or have any remorse for those who lost everything! DO NOT USE THIS VENUE! read more

Our daughter's Quinceanera turned out beautiful! We had an amazing time and the staff was awesome to work with. We would definitely used this venue again. read more

Here's part 2 of my review, as I was limited in space (edited to add that part 1 of my review seems to have disappeared. The shortened version is that everything would have been 5 stars except for the fact that the linens were wrong on the wedding day, and when my cousin pointed it out, the lady was rude until my dad talked to Syed, and that other people were in the chapel during our rehearsal that we paid for. We could have forgiven that, but the restrooms were non-functional from the time we arrived until the time we left, and were disgusting): We called Sterling Banquet Hall, and were told that we could only speak to Syed's nephew, since he was the one that was there that night. When my husband spoke to him, he was insulting and belittling. My husband mentioned the restroom situation, and Syed's nephew told us that it was out of their control, and that we needed to contact the City of Houston. First of all, a wedding venue should have insurance for this type of thing, and should not be instructing their customers to contact the City of Houston. They should offer some money back, and then reach out to the City of Houston themselves. If that weren't enough, we reached out to the City of Houston a few weeks after this call, and were told that there were no service calls to the City of Houston on the night of our wedding. Additionally, Syed's nephew told my husband that it was OUR fault that the restrooms were in an awful condition, which was not true at all. We found out from our guests that people from the other side of the hall were coming in and using the restrooms on our side, because their side only had one single stall (in addition to this, my cousin and sister-in-law missed a large portion of my ceremony because a security guard called them out of the chapel to get a child that didn't belong on our side of the hall, and was actually part of the other wedding). He refused to refund any portion of our money, citing the contract. First, the contract mentions acts of God, and I can assure you that the toilet situation was not an act of God. Secondly, the contract actually said that my last payment was due on OCTEMBER 1st. Octember! This is really the contract you want to stand behind? Additionally, the contract mentions that they will mail your security deposit out the Monday after your wedding, but we had to go pick ours up. I will be honest - if I hadn't re-read the contract for my rights, I wouldn't have even known that I put a security deposit down, so I would have never called about it. They're counting on that so that they can keep your money. They don't even stick to what it says in the contract, which is that they will mail you the check! My husband tried to stay patient with Syed's nephew, but once he started accusing us of being the reason the restrooms were in awful condition, my husband told him that if he would not offer us a refund of any amount, we would post our review on social media so that other people would be able to make an informed decision. Syed's nephew asked my husband "How old are you?" and told him that was slander. I'm sorry, but an honest review is not slander. It is the very reason websites like Yelp exist. Syed's nephew was incredibly rude to my husband, unnecessarily. I feel that anyone in our position would have requested the same. I even asked friends who used to work at venues, and they said that their venue would have given a refund, no questions asked. With that being said, I called one last time to visit with Syed, who is definitely the kinder of the two. He told me he couldn't help me, but then told me that me or my husband had already posted a review about the restrooms, which we had not. We purposefully did not do so until we had an attorney review the contract. Again, this would have been a 5 star review, had it not been for the insulting nature with which we were treated, and the fact that the restrooms weren't functional. Not only did our friends and family leave early, but we also had to pay for other vendors for a longer period of time than we were able to use them. I did not feel that this was a good business practice on the part of Sterling Banquet Hall, and I was very disappointed in their response. read more

This place caused me and my family a great deal of stress. They tell you one thing and then they do another. Sam tells you whatever you want to hear but the problem comes when he cant do what he says. Dont ever try to talk to his assistant because he is the rudiest person i have ever met- ever. On the day of the wedding, it was HOT and we had to keep asking him to turn the air up only to find that it wasnt even turned on. The reception hall itself is decent but they suck at running a business. Hopefully they will get better but i had a horible experience through the planning process and during my event. R read more

We did our Daughter's Graduation and my Husband's 50th Birthday party together. Very organized and all set up for the party. They provided two waiters, a bartender, and a security guard and lots of other complimentary drinks. We were not worrying neither about setting up the tables, chairs and decorations nor cleaning up after the party. We were all dressed up nicely and enjoyed the party. We highly recommend Sterling Banquet Hall #2. read more

This place and its staff was good to us, we had spent a few weeks looking at other venues but the pricing here was better than many others places we saw , also they had the specific decor and colors we were looking for, on the whole the venue is very beautiful . Ask for Sam he is very helpful and promptly returns calls and messages. read more

I want to thank sterling banquet for a job well done dj was great food was good and the server and bartenders did good too the security guard was great we will definitely be back read more

This place is so gorgeous and we had the best time at our wedding. The owners are super helpful in answering any questions. Our guests had an amazing time. The staff was friendly and very good. We were the first wedding in the newly remodeled hall and it was gorgeous!! We highly recommend them for your wedding or next event! read more

I've been to all of the Sterling locations. True to their brand, all of them are extremely beautiful, lavishly designed and tailor-made to the occasion. Be it wedding, birthday, party, corporate event --- Saif and Ali are always available to do their bit to ensure that the event is executed in the best way possible. The service has always been top-notch. As I've heard and experienced, this is one of the the places where the event's success is taken to heart and maintained to perfection. The halls, across all locations, are spacious and gorgeous, whilst the lighting systems are pretty much magical. I've always had a blast at Sterling, regardless of events. Looking forward to the next one! read more

I do not understand the bad reviews on here. This place was stellar!. The service, the payment plan, the staff, the vendors, and the facilities. Flawlessly clean. We had our daughter's quinceanera here on 6/2/2018 and we are so thankful for the wonderful experience. I will use them again and recommend them forever. Thank you for everything! -- David and Sofia read more

Doing business with these people was a pleasure , I had my Anniversary / Vow renewal party we booked 8 months in advance and the whole process went smoother than we expected, they guided us through the whole process from selecting the right colors , to choosing the right center pieces for the tables. Initially the coordinator who was helping me out was Syed, when we left for a vacation Sam took over , and I didn't feel for a moment that a new guy was dealing with my contract and event , they are really on top of things. Food was good too ! Our guests had fun that's what matters the most. read more

Hello I would just like to let you know as a guest of a wedding that your staff absolutely sucked! It consisted of 3-4 individuals that did nothing! The only person whom actually did the expected work was the bartender and even him at the end of the night decided that he would engage in an argument with me AS A PATRON. I criticized the work that was done to the "security guard" whom was on his phone the entire night NOT BOTHERED as to what was going on and the bartender over heard and decided that he would engage in an argument with me about the shotty service. I will NEVER recommend the Sterling Ballroom as long as there are employees feel that it is appropriate to get into heated arguments with guests without a manager present; as well as never recommend a venue that disregarded us as paying guests in your establishment. I was told that my money wasn't needed and I could leave. Wow! Being a retail manager for a multi million dollar business I have never and will never put up with an employee disrespecting guests or arguing a proven fact. I felt as if the entire establishment did not give a damn about what was transpiring nor did anyone care that the employees did the minimum to earn the job. The only individual that actually put in time was the lone bus boy that went around picking up the plates that sat on the tables for at least 45 minutes after dinner. It's such a shame because I was very willing to share great experiences with my colleagues and friends about the well dressed venue and the services I thought it would provide. Smh read more

Over all good experience ! The decorations were great , the prices very reasonable and everything turned out as promised , will recommend.

I previously spoke with Sam about a year prior when considering an event. I liked that they were family oriented and thought the hall and location was decent for pricing. I was planning my wedding for February 2014, and decided to return. I called before hand to confirm availability for my preferred date, as we were in the process of confirming our honeymoon package. I was informed by Sam that my date was available. I immediately came in the next Saturday, so that we can confirm a package. I know that planning a wedding can be stressful and I wanted to get things knocked out as soon as possible. When we walked in, you can smell a foul, mildew smell. It made me think of a review i read which stated there was a plumbing issue. I made a note to buy scented candles to try to mask the smell. The hall itself is nice; yet, hallway that leads to the restroom and bridal suite is vary narrow. My fiance said it made him fell smothered. The restrooms are poorly decorated and were dirty at the time of viewing. the bridal suite is small and not an appropriate space for the bride to get dressed but is fine for last minute touches. The up lighting is nice; yet, as mentioned before is an additional charge. The food is catered by a Colombian restaurant which have very sub par reviews for food quality. We originally wanted to serve Italian food but are weary of any catering service that advertises "lasagna" as "lassana". They also serve a side of fried plantain with every dish as though plantain is appropriately paired with Italian dishes or steak. Thus, we were going to pay the $300 buy out fee for our own catering from Pappas Seafood House. During the meeting, Sam was very removed. He did not build a proposal even though we were physically in the office. And, he pushed us out the door to view his 2nd venue that we stated we did not want because it had a club feel to it. Monday following the meeting I asked for a contract to confirm a date. I didnt here from him so I called Tuesday. When he finally sent the contract it was for the Hammerly facility that we did not want. He stated the one at Beltway 8 and Tanner had been reserved for over a year now. He lied to me 3 times by telling me my date was available; my fiance was a witness. Then when i called him to confront him, he begin to yell at me. No bride should be treated that way.There are liars and you will continuously have to follow up with them to get something done. We are taking our money over to Dermers banquet hall. Their customer service, all inclusive pkgs, and catering service is great. read more

Sterling banquet was amazing to work with very flexible with people's work schedule! And they were spectacular the day of my friend's reception! The staff was so friendly and attentive and the hall was just perfect and pretty! We all had so much fun and all of our guests had the best time! The food was absolutely amazing as well! Sam and Ali was very professional and attentive and courteous. For the great price we got more than expected, I would definitely recommend this venue to everyone no matter what the occasion is they will take care of you. read more

I went to a wedding this weekend with the newly married Jack's. I have to tell you the service was good and quick. I love that the servers wore gloves, they was quick and quiet. I was so amazed at how efficient they were. The chapel part was nice a few light bulbs out in the chandelier but not noticeable. A lot of dressing rooms for the wedding party. The food was GOOD, most of the time you expect for the food not to taste that great but nope, The food was yum, we had chicken breast with beef and an open bar, unlimited lemonade , ice tea and coffee. I had 6 cups of coffee it was good. The floor manager Sacramento was so courteous and professional. The table settings, I could have made easily but the place was great location, parking was fair and the lighting was always ready to set the mood. Great staff help good job Sacramento. I took a peak at a brocure and the prices are good will keep this tucked in my back pocket. read more

Well.... where do I start. Went to a wedding there recently. What a joke this place is. First, the wedding chapel or what ever they call it was very cheezy and very dungen like, Felt like I was at the haunted house at Disneyland. Its in a warehouse, how so intimate. Not! then we were herded back to the front of the warehouse where the air conditioning was not working well at all and the lighting was so horrible. the decorations were s 70's look. Candles were lit on the table putting out some horrid scent that was causing a bad taste and sore throat. Oh..... lets not forget about the food, if it was food or not. Really not sure. We had the chicken and beef and canned green beans and instant mashed potatoes. The potatoes came with some hard , solid, lump in them. And they told us it was served buffet style, NOT. Got to the front of the line, was handed a plate with food already on it and a salad plate. The server handed me a salad plate with French dressing on it, I said I would like ranch instead. The server looked at me with death look and finally served me a salad with ranch, but with attitude with it. All the food is canned. If you thought airplane food was bad, this place is worst. Would be better off have McDonalds cater your event for you. As far as everything else about this place. Well, that was miserable too. OH......One more thing, the Mall Cop, (failed the real cop tests obviously) rent a cop, also had attitude trying to show there strength in the parking lot trying to tell everyone where to park and not park, but they saved the best parking spot for themselves, which I believe they (not sure if it was a guy or a girl rent a cop) where driving a 1984 Buick La Sabre that couldn't move faster than gramma in a wheelchair. Anyway, enough said for this rat hole. Don't waste your time booking here or even attending anything event here. This place does not even deserve one star, but I had to give it something to start to review. read more
