I wanted an indoor venue for my sons birthday since his birthday is in the summer & the good time venue was perfect! The price is comparable to other venues nearby and Natalia was very easy to work with! I was able to customize my sons birthday exactly the way I wanted to and all of my guest enjoyed the space. They also have a kitchen available for use and they set up tables and chairs accordingly to what you need. I was worried about the limited parking but my guests had no issues finding parking on the weekend. There's front, side and back parking as well as public parking lots. There were also a good amount of restrooms here which is great so you don't have all your guests waiting around to use the restroom.

Such an amazing venue! My family recently celebrated a graduation here. It was a wonderful experience, we had a blast! The entire staff are extremely accommodating and supportive, and can't thank them enough for all their hard work. We had everything we needed for our party to run nice smoothly! The venue itself is beautiful and spacious- from the brand new fully-equipped kitchen and bar area to the gorgeous tiled bathrooms (there are 5, which was amazing so no one had to wait), the lighting (provided a great ambiance), and hardwood floors. We also loved the surrounding neighborhood! The San Gabriel Mission District is absolutely adorable! We will DEFINITELY be hosting more events here:)

This venue was beautiful. We had our baby girl's first birthday party there and everyone loved the place. We were able to have tables on one side and bounce house and ball pit on the other side. It was perfect!

Such an adorable venue in a great location. Was extremely spacious and clean. Hosted my sisters baby shower here and everything went smoothly and all of our guest complimented the space and decor which was provided by Wife of the Party. I highly recommend this space! Thank you to everyone at The Good Time Venue for making this a memorable celebration for my family!

Highly recommend this lovely chic venue!! Fully equipped with anything you can imagine to host a event or celebration. Natalia made the viewing and reservation process so seamless and was always available for any questions or concerns. The venue is like a blank canvas that you can use to make your aesthetic visions come to life. We booked for my sister's 18th birthday celebration. All of our family and friends loved it! It was nothing less of a GOOD TIME

The dance floor and backdrop setup we made for our event.

Had a blast throwing Gaby's Masters degree Graduation party at the good time venue. The kitchen was perfect for the catering company we had. The bar was spacious and perfect as well. We fit a dance floor and had 75 guests comfortably. 100% recommend you have your next event here!

The Good Time Venue its a great place to have any celebration. We had my daughter's Quinceañera this past Saturday . We had such an amazing time . This place is not only a beautiful but it is also located in a great and historic area in San Gabriel . Also , the place itself it is great , beautiful hardwood floors, very spacious, great Lighting, nice bar area and bathrooms . Everything was just perfect. My guest loved it so much and Im coming back to celebrate my next QuinceaÑera .

Hosted my sister in law and brother's baby shower here and it is the cutest venue. Everything was perfect. The venue is spacious, and the layout is great- it has so many different ways to set up your event. There is a kitchen, multiple bathrooms, and a bar area that you could use as a desert table, food set up, etc. The location is great too, there is a parking lot behind the venue, street parking around the mission district, and other parking lots not too far from the venue. We can't thank the team at the good time venue and wife of the party enough.

They created a library for my baby!

See all

Giving 3 stars because I left a message and called a few times but they never called back. Had to look elsewhere for my event.

You are responsible for your own table cloths, or you can rent it from them for an additional price. There's a kitchen that you can use, the bathrooms are clean, and there's plenty of parking inside. The venue can host 100 people, but it will be very tight with that many people. We had about 80 people (including kids) at the event, and though it felt tight, at least the kids were able to hang outside to enjoy the bouncer. I rented the afternoon time frame, so we were given the venue from 2:30-9PM. The only thing that I found weird was that there was absolutely no attendant available at the end of the night. Overall, a decent place to rent a venue if you wanna DIY things yourself.

It felt a little tight, but there was still plenty of space in the foyer area and in the back. At the event I attended they had a bounce house and a taco vendor in the back. There is a full sized kitchen available for use so you can store or prepare food and drinks. The grass lawn out front was also a nice place for kids to run around. Super family friendly space! It was nice they even had a changing table in the women's bathroom. I would love to attend another event here in the future!

He handled everything last minute...And what I mean last minute, one day before the celebration due to a reason at another hall nearby canceled on us last minute. He got on his phone made calls and made everything happen. Delicious catered food, delicious cake, bartenders, staff to give us great service, and table cloths with artificial flowers center piece. Every single staff member at the hall had their responsibility and they took care of us 100% and provided top notch service. If someone dropped food or spilled a drink they cleaned it up right away. The staff were very friendly. The restrooms were kept up clean and fully stocked. It couldn't of had been any better. The bar area was very nice. All of our invites kept complimenting us on the hall. They were surprised how good the staff were. I highly recommend this venue. I wouldn't hesitate or think twice on booking a future event here. Mr. Emil we thank you for making it an incredible unforgettable night for my daughter, family, friends and for my wife. We thank god for putting a great person on our path on helping us out and taking pride on helping families on having an incredible celebration. Thank you for having us. I really appreciate everything you did for my daughter and my wife. Thank you

It proved more difficult when dealing with the owner Scott. I'll start by saying the end result was us rescheduling at the same rate that we booked & our event went well, however it wasn't without hiccups. When rescheduling, we were specifically instructed by Scott to cancel our booking in Peerspace & rebook the new date. That's when issues started. Before cancelling I mentioned how Peerspace won't refund our full amount & Scott replied that whatever isn't refunded will be credited toward the new date. That didn't happen without us constantly reaching out via text, email, & Peerspace. When you request a date on Peerspace it's pending review/approval from Blush, however it charges you immediately. Since we opted for the payment plan that required about half down & remainder later, we were waiting on our refund to book the new date. It never came. When we were finally able to have a phone call with Scott, I couldn't get one word in the entire time he was mansplaining the world of business. He was very patronizing & I swallowed my pride because we just wanted a resolve & to not lose the deposit. I asked very clearly whether he was going to uphold our agreement. He did, but under the condition that we pay the remainder of our balance upfront in good faith to them. We did & that was that. Thereafter, it was back & forth whether Chris would still be working our event which Scott said he was. Chris was the saving grace of Blush in our opinion. Customer service & how you treat people is king, so it put our hearts at ease. But not for long, since it was changed later to Jin. Getting Jin to respond was difficult. We requested a final walk through with our coordinator about a month before our event. Jin told us he wasn't feeling well & wasn't present for most of the walk through. So we asked questions via email instead. I specifically mentioned a clean facility is important to us. The place just wasn't as polished as we first saw it. He was responsive only after I'd send text follow ups. The week of, not at all. I was waiting on confirmation about our drink selection which I never got & we just hoped it would all work out the day of. Day of our coordinator arrived first. The bathrooms were clean but the bar, cocktail tables, mirror hallway, & front door were full of fingerprints and sticky as if not cleaned from a previous event. We were told there would be 2 staff & that they'd be able to help us move cocktail tables. We weren't aware one of those people would be Jin & he wasn't helpful at all. He completely ignored our coordinator & aunt, but jumped to help our DJ with the sound system. We can only conclude it's because our DJ is a man & as a same sex female couple that leaves such a bad taste in our mouths. Our coordinator & aunt ended up cleaning everything with the one rag & spray bottle he gave after we repeated asked. Coordinator, wife, son, & I moved the heavy tables/ottomans. The drinks didn't taste like our selections. But the worst part was that he started charging our guests upon arrival. My wife & I stepped away to change our clothes. We were there 1.5hrs before start time & Jin never approached us or our coordinator for our card. He also had our itinerary ahead of time and met our coordinator. FYI on top of booking fees, you're also required to use their bar service for ALL drinks alcohol/nonalcohol which is included info on Peerspace. We agreed we'd cover the required minimum of $2500 & once we reached that amount it would turn into a cash bar. Our guests approached us confused about the bar so my wife personally went to Jin & asked why people were being charged, to which he responded "I couldn't find you guys." They immediately include their tip, which we weren't aware of, so drinks totaled to about $2100 w/ the remainder being tax/tip. They continuously ran out of cups & had zero cups for the water dispensers. We were refilling used water bottles to give to the kids. My aunt & cousin were busing tables. Bartenders didn't care to stay quiet or hold drink orders during vows. Every video we have of our vows is them shaking drinks & slamming glassware. There were good things too, kinda. It wasn't communicated to us that the front bathroom was for staff only & we had a outfit change planned, so after first saying no, Jin ended up letting my wife & I use the front bathroom. Also him assisting our DJ resulted in the music going well. It's sadly overshadowed by all the other things that needed improvement. It comes down to a lack of customer service & professional decorum, because the venue itself is beautiful. We gave a final 3 STARS because everything came together. Those missing components are just so vital. A work day for them is literally someone else's most important day that they're choosing and paying to celebrate at Blush.

Inside a beautiful golf club, it has long been a local favorite. We have been coming back regularly ever since they resumed Sunday brunch service after the COVID shutdown, and it continues to deliver a satisfying, relaxed experience. Parking can be a bit tight when there's a special event like a wedding, since the buffet is arranged alongside the event space. Even though the venue isn't huge, the selection is surprisingly well rounded. You will find classic American brunch staples such as scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, and even BBQ ribs, alongside Mexican dishes like green chile pork and menudo. There are also Chinese options, including favorites like beef with broccoli, giving the buffet a nice multicultural touch. One pleasant surprise is the quality of the chilled seafood bar. While the offerings are simple, typically snow crab legs and cocktail shrimp both are fresh, sweet, with a clean, satisfying texture that stands out compared to many hotel brunches. Made to order omelets and prime rib steak add another layer of value and ensure you can get something hot and customized. The champagne may not be top tier, but it's easy drinking and pairs well with the variety of food. A full beverage station with juices, coffee, and tea rounds things out nicely. After the meal, it's especially enjoyable to walk around the property, walk by the lake, and soak up the sunshine, it's the perfect way to digest and extend a leisurely Sunday morning. Overall this a great value brunch buffet with diverse food options, pleasant surroundings, and a comfortable neighborhood feel that keeps people coming back.

The territory is incredibly well maintained, with huge mature trees, beautiful flowers, fountains, mini waterfalls, and small ponds where you can see fish and turtles. There is also a lovely grassy area in the center where you can sit, relax, or have a small picnic. Geese walk freely around the gardens, and colorful parrots fly overhead, adding even more charm to the atmosphere. In April, the garden looks especially stunning -- the pergola and trees are in full bloom (I wish I remembered the names of those gorgeous flowers!), and the whole place feels alive and magical. Honestly, this garden is beautiful in any season of the year. You can come here with dogs, which is a big plus, but it's important to respect the property rules: pets must be on a leash, owners are responsible for cleanup, professional photography requires a permit, and activities like skateboarding, drinking alcohol, or organized sports events are not allowed. These rules help preserve the calm and cleanliness of the space. There is also a secondary school located on the property, which adds to the unique character of the place. Parking-wise, we were able to find free street parking nearby without any issues. This is a perfect spot to slow down, enjoy nature, and escape the city noise for a while. Highly recommended for a peaceful walk or a quiet moment surrounded by beauty.

I would recommend this place if you want to take a break and sit and enjoy the area. People were friendly and welcoming. Parking is a bit limited as we had to park across the street. This area is located behind apartments and a bit hidden from the public. Once you walk around you'll find your way. Overall great place to visit.
