“Our server was a little slow, and it took a long time to get our initial round of drinks but when the food arrived, everything was delicious! Still some of the best chicken parm around.”
“Omg!!!! If I could give 100 stars, I definitely would give this venue 100 and more. My cousin used this venue for her wedding this past Friday and everything was absolutely beautiful. The food was amazing her bridal assistant Iri went above and beyond to make sure my cousin was comfortable and ensured everything she needed was available to her. How could I forget Mark Mark if you are reading this from the bottom of my heart thank you so much for working with my cousin from day one till the day of. I know myself and the rest of the bridal party had you on roller skates, and you did not fuss not one bit you were patient with us you did more than we needed or asked for and everything was a dream come true thank you so much and I can’t wait till my special day”
“I recently held my baby shower at Zenith Events. The space is clean and intimate. Loved that there was a separate area for food. I booked the gold package and got my money's worth!”
“We had our wedding at the Pleasantdale Chateau this past Saturday, and calling it extraordinary somehow still feels like an understatement. Multiple guests have already told us this was the best wedding they’ve ever been to—and we completely agree.
When planning, we seriously debated between the Pleasantdale and several famous New York City venues. Choosing the Pleasantdale was the best decision we’ve ever made—and that is truly not an exaggeration.
What sets the Pleasantdale apart is the combination of outstanding service and extraordinary food. The staff is attentive, warm, and seamlessly professional in a way that makes you feel completely taken care of from start to finish. Every detail was handled with precision and genuine care, allowing us to actually relax and enjoy our day. And the food—absolutely unreal. Guests are still talking about how incredible every course was, from cocktail hour through dessert.
The property itself is stunning, but it’s the experience the Pleasantdale team creates that makes it unforgettable. Our wedding felt elegant, joyful, and effortless—all because of them.
We cannot recommend the Pleasantdale Chateau highly enough. If you are considering it for your wedding or special event, stop looking. This venue is truly in a league of its own.”
“We just had our daughter’s party here and everything was wonderful! It is a beautiful venue with beautiful ballroom. The food was great, the service was exceptional, and the staff made sure everything ran smoothly. We truly had an amazing time and our guests did as well. Highly recommend for any special event!”
“Amazing venue. I booked it twice for my bachelorette party and wedding a day apart. It worked out great! The staff was very helpful. The building’s historical vibes really make the pictures unique. We were close to 200 people and it didn’t feel crammed at all. Louis in particilar was amazing with all of his help. He really understood me and helped a lot! I would definitely recommend it.”

“Its a small theatre so wherever you sit you enjoy the show. They have a bar and snacks at the movie section. My husband was disappointed they didn't have coffee.
They staff was very nice and helpful.”
“We absolutely loved our venue. Wendy is amazing, she communicates efficiently, and does everything she can do to achieve your vision at their venue. We had an amazing Wedding and we cannot thank the team at Brooklake enough! Our guests still compliment the food…shout out to the fried pickles a crowd favorite! Literally sooooo much food, we could not be happier! The Bridal Attendant Vanessa also deserves a shoutout for being your right hand woman for the day, ready to help with anything you need. Thank you Brooklake!”

“My 5 yr old daughter loves coming to Parteaz Mini camp!! Susan and her staff are so caring, playful, fun and keeps her busy with princess dress up, arts and crafts, music, games and so many fun activities through the day! She’s always asking to come back, I love the flexibility as for a working mom and there’s no school I know I can trust my daughter will be in good hands with Parteaz camp!”
“We hosted my son and daughter in laws baby shower at this event space and couldn’t recommend it enough. The owner was respectful, communicative, and very accommodating especially when we received news that a snowstorm was coming on the day of the event. She helped us to coordinate a new date and time to ensure our celebration happened. The event space was spacious and in a great location! We had an amazing time!”

“I’ve been taking lessons with Monica in Montclair, and the improvement in my game is night and day. She has an incredible eye for technical adjustments—she fixed my backhand follow-through in just one session. She’s patient but firm, ensuring you get the most out of every basket of balls. If you’re looking to actually level up your USTA rating or just hit more consistently, Erica is the pro to see.”

Thank you for making my daughter’s day extra special!”
“First time here. The food was fresh and portions were large. All in our party enjoyed our dinner. Felt full after but a just right full. We can see why this gets high ratings.”

“Jim, Julia, Grace, and Nick are truly an incredible team! Jim runs an exceptional venue and genuinely cares about every couple who celebrates there. His dedication to creating unforgettable memories is evident in every detail.
From the very beginning, the entire staff was accommodating, attentive, and always willing to answer any questions or accommodate special requests. The food was absolutely delicious, and we received countless compliments from our guests about both the cuisine and the cocktail hour.
One feature everyone especially loved was the abundance of seating throughout the rooms during cocktail hour, which created a comfortable and inviting atmosphere for guests to relax and mingle.
We feel so fortunate that we chose The Mansion as our wedding venue—it was everything we dreamed of and more. If you’re looking for a beautiful venue with outstanding food, exceptional service, and a genuinely caring staff, we highly recommend reaching out to The Mansion. You will not regret it!
Thank you from the Kruty and Siluk families!”
“I gotta say this place looks tough. The inside had good air conditioning, and the studio looked amazing. I would definitely attend or even have an event in here.”
“We had an amazing experience with Food Company for our daughter's graduation party. The food was unbelievable, and every detail was attended to with such care. Everything from the charcuterie boards to the plated strawberry shortcake was just delicious. Our guests had a wonderful time!”
“A MUST-BOOK VENUE! The space is clean and stocked with amenities such as a big variety of table sizes, heating mats for catering, built in sound system and wifi-enabled monitors for displaying a logo or graphic. The layout of the venue is perfect for hosting, with one large party space and then a bar off on its own. Then, the staff enhances the venue even more…accommodating, kind, friendly, helpful and more. For a kids party (like ours) a milestone celebration of even a small wedding - book here!”
“I’m so happy to write this review! I was planning a rehearsal dinner for my son’s wedding. I was not familiar with the area near the wedding venue. I specifically wanted a location to accommodate 50+ people and allow me to bring in my own alcohol. I found The Warehouse online. Right from the start, I was greeted warmly by Lisa, who was able to talk me through the space, menu, staffing, pricing, etc. She patiently answered my litany of questions, worked within my budget, and presented me with a menu and plan for the evening. In a nutshell, the food was fantastic, the space was beautiful (shabby chic/rustic), very comfortable for the group. The staff managing our dinner, led by Noemi, was superb! She attended to every detail, beautifully displayed the bar options, food, and desserts. Not a detail was missed! We never felt rushed in anyway. I highly recommend The Warehouse for any event!”
“AMAZING venue!! We rented the entire facility for a sports-themed Bar Mitzvah with a couple hundred people. Kids AND adults all had a blast as there was something for everyone. Amy is the BEST to work with - helped to make our vision come alive and kept everything running smoothly all night. Very flexible space - highly recommend!”
“Fantastic event at YCI!
I had a great experience at YCI! My sister recently held her wedding here, and it was obvious from the moment we were greeted by Dee that we were in expert hands. The space is large and convenient, but the real highlight was the hospitality.
Parking: It can be a little tough since there isn't a dedicated lot right at the door, but there is one within a short walking distance.
I highly recommend YCI to anyone looking to host an event in NJ. I’ll definitely be back!”
“In just a few days, the upcoming Lunar New Year brings the Year of the Dragon on February 10th among East and Southeast Asian cultures. It’s fifth in the 12-animal Chinese zodiac cycle and the only animal that’s a mythical creature. This afternoon, my partner and I arrived at the Woodland, located off of Woodland Road in Maplewood, to celebrate Lunar Fest NJ 2024—Maplewood Arts & Culture. Completed in 1930, the Georgian Revival-style mansion and adjoining auditorium have been a hub for Maplewood’s vibrant cultural and civic life for over eight decades. The unique event features lion dance, performances representing Chinese, Mongolian, Thali, and Korean cultures, children's activities, and delicious food trucks, which brought out the crowd.”

“The staff, facility, and overall experience at Avalon Banquet Hall was fabulous! The staff were friendly, attentive, and helpful throughout the event. The facility was clean and inviting. I attended my cousin’s repass at this location and was impressed by the overall atmosphere. Thank you for making our grieving process a little easier for everyone.
May you continue to expand and achieve bigger and better things!”
“My daughter had an amazing time at Grooves Unlimited, I am very impressed by the level of professionalism, teaching and dedication they show towards their students. I am so happy we found this place, I highly recommend it to any parent who is looking to improve their children confidence and dance technique.”
