It's a cute indoor small shops store and venue for rent. My friend rented out the venue portion and…read morethe staff were easy to work with on time/clean up etc, and the venue was very fantasy/fairy/garden lights vibes. I visited the small stores since it was just next door and bought a stamp (from small stationery store) and ended up buying a Chinese traditional han fu/dress. The staff were very friendly, patient, and helpful! I spent a good 30-40 minutes picking out the one I wanted and they helped with trying it on / taking pics for me etc. The owner of the han fu store seems to go to China to get fresh goods decently often, so if you don't see any you love you can always come back in a month to check.

The venue is already decorated so beautifully, which makes the experience that much easier! My bridal shower was tea party themed, and this venue was PERFECT!!!

This review is way overdue. Life got ahead of me. I'm sorry, Emil and Lisa!…read more I had my daughter's quinceañera at El Palacio Hall on March 14, 2026. We hosted 175 guests. When we first started looking for venues, we had a few specific things in mind, and flexibility was one of them. On our first visit in March 2025, we met with Emil, the venue owner. He was very welcoming, friendly, family-oriented, and easy to work with. He answered all of my questions and was very transparent from day one. He never pressured us or made us feel obligated to choose everything the hall offered. All selections and packages were based on our budget and what we wanted to spend. When I walked into the venue, I was immediately attracted to the décor, high ceilings, and bar area. Everything was very clean, the white draping made the space feel even more open, and the floor plan was perfect. I knew I wouldn't have to do much. I did hire an outside vendor to help with the themed décor, but almost everything else, including the plating, was purchased through the venue. As the quinceañera date approached, we met the venue manager, Lisa. She became our go-to person for anything we needed. She was very attentive and made sure the event was a success and that everything looked beautiful on the big day. The day of the event, everything went very smoothly. We had a venue host who worked hand in hand with Lisa. I forgot his name, but he was very kind and helpful. I had many family members say, "This place is beautiful! I never knew this was here." No one had any issues with parking. The restrooms were well maintained throughout the event, the food was ready on time (we had the fajitas, beans, and rice which was very tasty), the serving staff was very efficient, and the air conditioning was blasting and felt great (the temperature that day was around 78-80 degrees). Every area of the venue was operating seamlessly. All-in-all I am very grateful to all the staff at El Palacio Hall because they helped make my daughter's quinceañera a success. I would definitely have another event there again.

This is one of the longest running Sunday brunch buffets in the area, and one of the few that still…read moreoffers an all you can drink champagne that truly feels worth the price. 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.

I had the prime rib and it was decent, wished the horse radish was a bit more stronger. The omelette station was temping but it was a lot of food. Oh! Forgot to mention they had a noteworthy menudo that was delicious (also noted others returning for that one).

Built in 1913, The York Manor was home to a Methodist congregation before transitioning into the…read moreYork Blvd Church of Christ in 1963. It sat vacant for a few years and briefly reopened as a performing arts space in 2013 but was forced to shut down. After being declared a historic monument, it underwent a complete renovation by new owners in 2015. The building changed hands again in 2023 and functions as an event center and a shared common workspace. This three-story venue has rooms upstairs. Downstairs is the main room with lofty ceilings, large windows, wood floors, a kitchen, bathrooms, and a stage for a DJ or live bands. Downstairs is a speakeasy style bar and the backyard is also a nice spot for an outdoor reception. I've driven by this place numerous times thinking it was just a church. I recently saw that there was a Holiday Market Place being held here so I stopped in to do some shopping. There was a man on the front lawn making pupusas and people sitting at tables enjoying them. Inside is quite spacious and there were several vendors selling their merchandise. The tables were nicely spaced apart, so it was easy to browse. This realty is a nice spot for an event or to use as a shared workspace. *Street parking only.

CRATES. they barely had any garbage disposals for us to clean. main thing was the workers under the company look lazy and rude. if we didn't clean, they would keep the deposit. I don't think a reception of that size would be overlooked by the host and simply wasn't disclosed that significant detail. for the price of a different venue with all services for cleanup, seems like it's better to go somewhere else. plus, no parking and it's only street. interesting space but pass.

This is the most difficult Botanical Garden to get in touch with…read more The hours they have posted on their website are wrong, no one picks up the phone after calling several times and leaving several messages. I went in person last weekend, and it was closed despite their online hours posted. The lack of clarity even upon walking up to the venue is not clear. They have no signs stating they are closed and it's clear they do not care to return voicemails. Please do not waste your time going there.

Hours Of Operation: They welcome visitors to the garden on many Friday and Saturday evenings and during the day on Sundays. You can check out their schedule of events and admission cost on their website: https://japanesegardenpasadena.app.neoncrm.com/np/clients/japanesegardenpasadena/event.jsp?;=&event=1612& Admission Cost: Mostly, $15 on Friday and Saturday. Sunday, it's $12. For other events, they post the cost on their website. Location/Parking: Located across from the Arlington Gardens (Free). It's kinda hidden, but just use the gps on your phone to guide you. Parking can be found along Arlington. For special events, they encourage you to park at Westridge School (Orange Grove and W. State St.) and walk up to Storrier Stearns. Ambiance/Decor: The Storrier Stearns Japanese Garden is a beautiful and charming retreat with a quiet and tranquil elegance. The place is small which contains many of the much admired design features found in the most lavish of Japanese-style gardens of its era. As Kendall Brown states in his book, California Japanese-style Gardens, "this is the genius of Kinzuchi Fujii: this was once a flat area of two tennis courts; now it is a masterwork. 1) Classic Niko-an Teahouse, the garden landscape offers a variety of other beautiful details. 2) Numerous gathering points, seating areas & vistas 3) Four original bridges plus the original cedar log Japanese Waiting Bench 4) Two large interconnected, irregularly shaped koi ponds 5) The sounds of two waterfalls, one cascading down a 25-foot hill 6) An artful dry riverbed for rain overflow winding through the garden 7) Cooling shade everywhere from spreading sycamores & old oaks 8) Many tons of boulders & stones 9) Granite statuary & stone lanterns Storrier Stearns Japanese Garden For Thought: Wouldn't mind coming back to re-center myself.
