The service was excellent, the food was delicious, and the entire team was incredibly accommodating. They were very easy to work with and maintained great communication throughout the whole process, which made planning so much less stressful.

Highly recommend to anyone planning a wedding or special event!

Unfortunately the food was not authentic, I wish they had kept the chefs when they bought the Seafood World restaurant. I had been in this White Palace 2 many times before when it was called Emerald restaurant. This venue is the best, it was really a beautiful night club serving Chinese food. They had New Years eve party every year and I will miss these forever. So if you are looking for a restaurant for your wedding reception, this is it. Most people are not that fussy, I notice people enjoy the ambiance and the beautiful décor for a memorable experience, I speak from my experience, my sister had her big birthday party and everybody I asked just loved the food. VACF requested a donation of $60 pp. The menu was very short, not your usual wedding menu. 1) The appetizers just had some chewy seafood, fried dough and oranges not the usual cold cuts and other delicacies. 2) The only good dish was the fried prawns in special sauce over noodles. 3) They did not even have a beef dish, the tofu was so bland I could not eat it. 4) Hainan chicken was so chewy, very fatty/greasy and bland the green sauce that came with it was also bland. 5) The fish was filet not whole fish like in many weddings I went to but it was tasty. 6) The fried rice was so bland nobody ate it, don't they try to put a little more soy sauce, there was hardly any eggs or char siu, not even enough onions for flavor. When my sister had her birthday party, she ordered the full wedding menu w lobster and only 3 out of 10 dishes were tasty. I'm writing this for my sister and cousin to take note, I will not attend my cousin 3rd live concert at WP, their sound system was loud and had echos, the sound is better here at WP2 but the food is the same recipes, not delicious and not worth the $150 I usually paid. I will of course attend next year VACF to support cancer survivors including myself. This year VACF throw a big party here. Dr Bich Lien, the founder husband just passed away of cancer, my husband just had a craniotomy so I feel her pain, she is a wonderful oncologist and accomplished humanitarian. She organized this annual event, she gave a heartfelt speech to open the reunion, God bless her, we had photobooths, raffles, entertainment with a show w singers, karaoke and an amazing ballerina. I could not believe I won a raffle prize. I'm looking forward to this annual event, the food to me was not important,it's the ambiance and the vibes that count and that added 1 star to my review.

Exceptional Venue for a Celebration of Life From my…read morevery first conversation with Ana and Bryana, I knew Mile Square Golf Course Banquet Facility was the perfect place for our Celebration of Life. Their kindness, professionalism, and warmth made a difficult time so much easier, and I am beyond grateful for the experience. The venue itself is stunning, elegant, light, airy, and uplifting, which was exactly what we wanted for this occasion. The room's clean, timeless aesthetic required little decoration, yet it felt warm and intimate. The table spacing was perfect, offering both comfort and closeness for our guests. The accommodations were top-notch. The team provided a large screen and laptop for our video montage, a cable to play personal music through the in-house speaker system, as well as a microphone and podium. They even supplied an easel for our loved one's portrait and an additional table for photographs, ensuring that every personal touch was seamlessly integrated. The linen selection was extensive, but we opted for classic all-white linens, which complemented the elegant setting beautifully. The service was impeccable. Ana and Bryana were not only responsive, professional, and incredibly accommodating, but also genuinely kind and authentic, a quality that extended to the entire staff. They ensured that everything ran smoothly, and their attention to detail did not go unnoticed. The water and tea pitchers were always full, plates were cleared discreetly, and the overall hospitality was second to none. The food was exceptional, our guests couldn't stop raving about it! While everything was incredibly delicious, the Waldorf salad, fresh vegetables, warm rolls, chicken and cookies were particular standouts. It's almost impossible to find a meal of this caliber for just $30 per person, making it not only a beautiful event but an outstanding value. Logistics were effortless. The club's entrance was easily accessible, parking was a breeze, and the staff even allowed me early access to set up table centerpieces and our photograph table. Set-up and breakdown were seamless, handled efficiently and professionally. If I had to describe this experience in one word: EXCEPTIONAL! The level of care, service, and quality provided by Mile Square Golf Course exceeded every expectation. I am so grateful to have chosen them for this special event and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a truly elegant, stress-free, and beautifully executed gathering.

I can't say enough wonderful things about this venue. From the very beginning, Jamie went above and…read morebeyond to help coordinate my son's 2nd birthday party. It turned out even better than I could have imagined. Planning a party can be overwhelming especially with my son's theme being a bit challenging but Jamie was able to help make it happen in just a few weeks. She was incredibly organized, attentive, creative, and always willing to help with every detail. The party was a success! She's very experienced in party planning and works closely with many vendors she can refer you or recommend. All my guests had a great time but most importantly the kids had so much fun. I honestly could not have done it without all her help. Her dedication, professionalism, and genuine care made all the difference. I highly recommend this venue to anyone looking to host a special event. I like that they have the outside patio great for food vendors and extra space for additional seating. If you're considering having a party here, you will be in good hands. Thank you, Jamie and your team at Xo Event Space for making my son's birthday so memorable!

Our family recently celebrated our son's HS graduation party at XO Lounge. We had a wonderful…read morebeginning-to-end experience that included incredibly responsive, thorough, and professional communication with Jamie--the main contact in charge of booking, planning, and operational oversight. On the day of the event, Hope, Hai, Lola (bartender) and the remaining staff were unbelievably helpful, accommodating--and integral to our efficient set-up and smooth execution of a successful celebration. XO Lounge is a very posh venue with modern décor. The nightclub vibe and setup provided the core foundation--that minimized decorative needs for our graduation-themed event. Our event hosted approximately 150 guests--that we comfortably housed in the smaller nightclub event area. Despite opting out of seated dining, our area easily accommodated our guests with the use of the booths and lounge-style sofa set-up for central-space seating. We still had surplus space leftover--that was allocated for the dance floor and bar area. The nightclub further opens into an enclosed courtyard--allowing for additional cocktail tables, bar stools, and lounge-roaming for our guests. Our party featured a standard photo-booth setup with an 8-ft props table--as well as a 360-spinning video-booth in the front entryway lobby area (just to the left of entrance). Our 360-video-booth included an inflatable enclosure--that successfully fit in the entryway alcove. Our rented XO Lounge space features a stage with a floor-to-ceiling TV-grid. This large multi-screen TV--along with dozens of TVs lining the entire room-walls--cycled a slideshow of our graduate's photos throughout the evening. XO Lounge further features a full PA system, DJ plug-ins for surround sound (you must provide your own DJ/music/equipment), full nightclub equipment (e.g. spinning disco-ball light machines, fog machines, laser strobing, etc.), full bar & bartender staff, etc. I LOOVED that XO included all the needed tables of various lengths and sizes--with fitted fabric *tablecloths* included. Fabric tablecloths may seem like a minimal feature, but fitted cloth coverings elevate a sophisticated aesthetic while alleviating the patron from the added costs for these supplies. Hope oversaw our function and was so attentive--always offering to help with literally *anything*--to reduce stress for the hosts (I really appreciated that!). The venue was surprisingly affordable--with a nominal outside-catering fee; the staff were professional and delightful; and the party space and outdoor-courtyard areas fit our guests, photo/video-booths, food vendors, Welcome table, Sweets table, and largescale Balloon Arch. XO Lounge features one-stop-shop booking and planning services for all party needs, (i.e. catering, decoration, DJ, photo-booth vendors, etc.)--though we did not partake of these additional offerings. Hosting an event on this scale is stressful (IYKYK), but this venue and staff minimized the stress and streamlined our experience for a fantastic celebration. Our family would definitely book with XO lounge again for future event planning needs--and would highly recommend to our friends, family, and others. Our guests had the BEST time; and we had a GREAT PARTY celebrating our newest grad!

We toured the Newland barn as a wedding venue rental. The Newland barn is owned by the city of…read moreHuntington Beach and offers hourly options with an array of prices depending on date and type of event. While it is a good option for a smaller wedding, I don't see it being a good fit for a larger wedding. They offer a barn with a smaller capacity (50-60 people I believe) and up to 200 people on the lawn. For a wedding ceremony, there's a gazebo. Parking is limited at the actual Newland barn site. However, parking is offered at the shopping center as an alternative.

From the moment we arrived, he made us feel incredibly welcome. He walked us through the grounds with such warmth and care, and it was clear how much he enjoys meeting people and helping them feel at home. He's polite, kind, and truly a blessing to work with. The grounds themselves are beautiful--well-kept, spacious, and full of charm. All of our guests had nothing but positive things to say. The wedding under the stars, surrounded by the soft glow of the Huntington Beach lights, created a magical atmosphere we'll never forget. We feel so grateful to have rented this place. If you're considering Newland Barn for an event, we can't recommend it highly enough, God bless Richard!

Great audio system via TV for guests to enjoy music playlist. There is a patio. Which is a nice bonus. Liked the fact there were two rest rooms for guests!

We sat in the hot sun while our ice, flowers, and food were melting in the two spaces of "parking." The venue is super cute and LOOKS great. It was a nightmare for our special day. 1) They only give you 30 minutes to set up, so we paid extra to come early to set up and NOBODY WAS THERE! Nobody answered my calls or texts. Finally, someone came 40 minutes late to open up. So, we had barely enough time to set up. 2) To add to that issue we had paid for 8 tables and they promised 2 extra tables for the cake and presents which was included in the cost. There were 6 tables when we arrived + one without chairs! The "security " guard Alex tried his best and was very polite about everything, but said he wasn't informed about the # of tables. He did help us get the tables promised, but it delayed set up that was supposed to be done already. He had to work extra hard to help set up tables that we weren't supposed to have to set up! We paid for that service!!! 3) Then, The AC system was broken in the front and it felt like a sauna, especially at the entrance and Kitchen area. We did have a lot of people in the main hall, so you'd think they'd have the AC ready and on when we arrived. It was not prepared, nor was it well ventilated. Everyone was hot and fanning themselves. A pregnant woman almost passed out it was so warm. Not even a fan or anything was set up. We had to drive home during the party to get our fans do our guests would be comfortable. ‍ The tile store that the owner also owns was completely air conditioned and super comfortable for the "security" guard that stayed there the entire time. We had to pay for the security guard too, which was confusing because he wasn't even in the venue, because it was probably too hot and he preferred the AC in the tile store adjoining the venue. 4) there was a roaches in the wall by the restroom 5) The restrooms weren't set up with paper towels and we were so busy hustling to set up because they were late opening, we didn't notice until someone asked to dry their hands. So embarrassing for us! 4 women said they just "air dried " their hands. ‍Needless to say, the beautiful day I'd spent many months planning ended up being stressful and exhausting. We ended early because it wasn't ventilated enough for our guests and people were uncomfortable. And, the pregnant mother almost passed out from the heat. If you're wanting a special, fun, smooth party, I'd warn you to maybe look elsewhere. How disappointing and sad.

Whether, you choose to do a corporate outing, a casual hangout or celebrate something meaningful. Please choose the Linksman host you. I am not kidding.
