“MO’s Banquet Hall is top notch! I would recommend this hall to anyone looking for a place to throw a party. Max is amazing and very helpful made my daughter’s Sweet 16 run smoothly and took the stress off of me and I was able to enjoy the night. The bartenders were amazing no complaints the photographer and videographer captured beautiful pictures and so attentive all night! If you are looking for a place this is it a one stop shop..Max again thank you for your service and your dedication and for making my daughter’s Sweet 16 a night we won’t ever forget!”

“The server at the bar, Bojana, was wonderful,welcoming and knowledgeable. Her smile and recommendations were greatly appreciated by my wife and myself. I have owned a restaurant for over 31 years, my review is, Bojana, 5 stars!”

“I attended a Wedding at the Venetian over the weekend. It's a beautiful venue. I had a wonderful time and was fully entertained with the event and traveling through their many rooms. The food was wonderful.”

“This is such a famous place that it just has to be seen close up, so may famous people have performed here, it took me a while to actually believe I was there. It has to be seen, I would definitely recommend seeing this building at night, it just looks so amazing, I never went in, it was enough for me to just be looking at it in person”

“I must say, upon arriving, one of the gentlemen immediately took care of me and directed me to where Dawn's office is located. Since Dawn was busy taking care of a couple, I was able to speak to Greg, who took all of my information and was able to assist with all of my inquiries. Greg was extremely helpful.”

“4.5 / 5.0 - My friends and I came here for brunch on Easter Sunday and were in for a fun surprise.Robert is on top of the Museum of Arts and Design, with impressive views of Columbus Circle and Central Park. We’d made reservations in advance but unfortunately were unable to sit by the windows with views. We still had a very enjoyable meal in this spacious and stylish restaurant.We ordered the Rigatoni ($25+), Lobster Roll ($21+) and Scrambled Eggs & Caviar ($28+). The complimentary basket of bread and muffins was a nice addition.The food was good, but the highlight for me was the festive atmosphere and Easter treats. They had a cotton candy stand, where they offered free cotton candy. And during our meal, an Easter bunny came around, waving and posing for photos.I’m not sure how they celebrate other holidays, but I would love to be back again for more unique experiences as well as the views.”

“Salvador took care of us at the upstairs bar. He was personable, attentive, and incredibly friendly. Food came out very quickly. Best midtown East bar!! Definitely would recommend to anyone looking for a good bottomless brunch.”

“Great museum to learn more about the history (and present!) of New York City. Some displays feel a little outdated, that’s why I give four stars. But the compilation of movie fragments depicting various aspects of life in NYC (moving, making money, relationships, work, entertainment) is a must-see and makes the museum definately worth a visit!”

“I have passed by many times but never had an occasion where u til last night. I was pleasantly surprised once I stepped inside because the outside is rather plain and doesn't hint of the tasteful and elegant inside. The front door opens to a lovely atrium area adorned with a huge flower arrangement in an urn with a bar and seating area. It is lovely tan and brown marble with bronze lighting fixtures and comfortable and booth seating. The food was done very very well. In stark contrast to a wedding I went to at a different well known catering hall a few weekends ago, the buffet was on point. The fried calamari was brought out small trays at a time often so that it remained crispy on the buffet. The cheese was delicious and actually tasted like cheese. The chicken franchise was tasty of lemons and butter and not overdone or mushy. The coating wasn't falling off in a wet heap like we sometimes see. The salads were fresh and delicious. The roasted peppers were certainly made in house because they had roasted flavor with brown grill marks and the garlic slices tasted like freshly sauced garlic. The drinks were on point. The bartender assured me she could make a good old fashioned, and indeed she did! I highly recommend this place”

“Whenever my travels to NY require a hotel stay, The Kimberly is, WITHOUT EXCEPTION, my favorite home away from home. This particular staff is among the most warm and gracious of all of those whom I have met across the globe. I am ALWAYS welcomed as an extended member of their family and I adore each of them. These lovely people are so genuinely kind. If you greet them in the same way (and if your requests are REASONABLE) they will do their utmost to ensure that your stay exceeds expectation. We discovered The Kimberly when our “go-to” hotel, down the street, had closed due to renovations. When that hotel re-opens, The Kimberly will remain our home in the city. No matter what the occasion — during all the seasons of the year — you will be THRILLED with your visit to The Kimberly and treasure the memories created there.”

“My friends and I spent one last evening in this city and it was an excellent experience; Exquisite and sociable staff, really good food and above all excellently made drinks. Quiet and relaxing environment, excellent for an evening with ”

“When it was time to open our firm's new NYC office a couple of years ago, we obviously had several choices. SO happy we went with D.J. & Tali at Workville! Wherever we are in the world, we know the Workville team always has our back!”

“I recently completed a one-hour swing evaluation with Lily Bartell at this location and I've been thrilled with the results. Lily was extremely knowledgeable, clear in her instructions and, most importantly, very patient. My shot consistency has already improved dramatically thanks to this initial session with Lily and that was all the convincing it took to continue working with her. Thanks Lily!”

“I visited to have a good time with my mom after Carnegie concert. The waiter was very friendly and his name was Adrian. I highly recommend visiting here for a good time with good people.”

“The food was the best. I have never had anything like this in my life and it's truly amazing. The steak melts in your mouth and it filled my stomach with joy. And the desserts where do I even start everything was masterfully crafted and made with love. You can tell that the chefs really care about every dish that they make and take pride in it too. Also the staff are incredibly kind and helpful. Also the vibe was really cool we are in these barrels which had a nice atmosphere and further played into the overall experience of this steakhouse.”

“My experience at the restaurant was a bit overwhelming due to the noise and crowded atmosphere, especially on a Friday night with live music. Despite the tight arrangement of tables making it difficult to move around, the food and service were excellent. I particularly enjoyed the vegetarian dish with pasta and plan on returning for it. My friends also loved their salmon dishes and couldn't stop raving about how delicious it was. Overall, while the ambiance was not to my liking, the quality of the food and service made up for it.”

“Chess max makes chess so much fun. My daughter started when she was 3.5 years old and was able to learn the rules quickly. Both Mr. Paul and Mr. Ramone are amazing teachers.”

“When it comes to the perfect view, day or night, this is the place to reserve a table. I highly recommend making a reservation with a note attached; it significantly enhanced our experience, especially with one of the best views in the restaurant. The portions are perfect for sharing, ideal for large parties. Unfortunately, our server wasn't at his best, due to personal issues, but the rest of the staff excelled in compensating and accommodating our party. Special mention goes to Wanita, who not only served our table with enthusiasm but also packed up leftovers for us. She was super friendly and accommodating. Very promptly about packing up the food into to go boxes. As soon as I asked for the ETA of our desert she walked out with ours immediately.The GM, Mr. Hans Nielsen, swiftly assessed the situation and implemented the best solution. It wasn't about lowering the bill; it was about his understanding of our discomfort and reassurance of Chart House's standards. I expressed my concerns, but they don't overshadow this five-star experience. Mr. Nielsen's professionalism and commitment to customer satisfaction left a lasting impression. His proactive approach ensured that our dining experience remained enjoyable despite the initial setback. This is the type of leadership every customer deserves when eating out and we are grateful.Overall, Chart House exceeded expectations with its breathtaking views, delicious food, and exceptional service. I eagerly anticipate returning for another memorable dining experience.Parking: Pay the $20 for the valet it’s worth it”

“I recently hosted a baby shower/gender reveal at The Women’s Club of Glen Ridge and I’m so happy with our choice of venue. Elizabeth was so accommodating and open to all of my ideas for the event. She was always available and helpful from the day we toured until the day of the event. We were able to set up the day before because the venue was not hosting anything the day before my event. It doesn’t get better than that. When we went to set up is when I met Luis. He is marvelous. He was like 10 people in 1. Whatever we needed he made it happen. And what he didn’t have he found a way to get it. I can’t wait to book here again and work with these wonderful people and their beautiful venue. Luis is truly an angel and made our day perfect.”

“Macaluso's is such an amazing venue! Before I even talk about the amazing staff let me tell you about their INCREDIBLE food. Whenever I see that I am photographing a wedding at Macaluso's I make sure to not eat any breakfast or snacks so I can fully enjoy their food!As a wedding photographer it is super important for me to work at a venue that has scenic areas for great photos of my couples and Macaluso's does not disappoint in that category at all (see attached photos). In addition, their staff is super friendly and willing to help with anything!I can't recommend this venue enough if you are looking for a great place to host your wedding or event!”

“I just had my daughter’s sweet 16 and I had an amazing experience. The hall itself is beautiful and the staff did a wonderful job. I would recommend this venue to all my friends and family.”

“I have had the most incredible experiences at OFFSITE through the years! Talk about high class! Not only is the venue comforting and warm, but it is also extremely functional and versatile for so many different types of events. The staff is always stellar and always go above and beyond to accommodate! Not to mention how accessible the location is. I wish they had more locations, but Im sure they will blow up and expand soon! I would never use another venue for any of my events. Highly recommend the beautiful and esthetically pleasing environment they provide! Can’t recommend them more!”

“This place has definitely changed their menu (or even entire concept). They don't serve Cuban food anymore, but the burrata pita was still fine and the service was nice.”

“My friend:s wedding was here and the staff, food and cocktails were excellent. I am vegan and gluten free and was so pleasantly surprised at how great the options they had for me were. Will definitely go back!”

“My spouse and I looked at around 11 other venues, and none come close to what you get at The Estate at Florentine Gardens. First off, the whole venue is GORGEOUS, with a beautiful, freshly made ceremony room, cozy but classy cocktail room, and a spectacular elegant ballroom for your reception. Even the hallways, groomsmen suite, and the bridal suites are amazing - they're big, stunning and are perfect for getting ready. If you're considering a winter or summer wedding, this venue is perfect. Even you're in the summer and it gets rained out, you'll still have a picture-perfect ceremony room, so really there is no need to worry. We did our wedding just a week ago and it was amazing!Not only does this venue wow your guests in terms of how it looks, but the staff are INCREDIBLE. We worked with Samantha (our event consultant), Jeffery (our maître d'), Monica (our bridal attendant), Max (helped with the groomsmen) Sal (entertainment services), DJ Tony Gia, and Shar (videographer). From day 1, Samantha was always enthusiastic and patient about our many many many questions that we asked throughout the whole entire year before our wedding. She was a joy to work with! Everything was done professionally and the answers provided truly reflects how much this venue knows and understands how to run a good wedding. Monica, Jeffery, and Max were with us the day of the wedding and they truly ran the show behind the scenes. They were there to answer any questions, take all the stress off of us and our families, and made sure everything was on time and done well. There was really nothing we needed to worry about because Jeffery, Monica, and Max were well coordinated and knew exactly what to do, even with our outside vendors (photographer and florist).One of the best things about The Estate at Florentine Gardens is that they also have amazing entertainment services. If you end up booking this venue, we highly recommend using Sal Travis and his team. Sal was always ready to provide us good song selections and help us craft our package for what we would like to have (lighting, videography, DJ, sparkler towers photo booth, ceremony music, and so much more). DJ Tony Gia was the best - he kept our dance floor up and dancing the whole night and was an amazing MC. Sal's team of videographers were also outstanding and blew our guests away. They were able to catch everything live and even produce an amazing wrap-up video to display at the end of the night.Our friends and families members who have been to so many weddings before said that our wedding was the best wedding that they have ever been to, and we know that it's because The Estate at Florentine Gardens is 1. beautiful, 2. provides the highest quality of service, and 3. is truly working to ensure your day goes smoothly, and 4. the food is so DELICIOUS!! (we had endless amounts of food flowing from our cocktail to reception to after, everyone said they were so full and thought it tasted so so good)!So a HUGE THANK YOU to the Florentine team for making our wedding day the best day it could have ever been.”

“If you have never been to the Seasons you are missing out! The seasons is one of the top venues in New Jersey and an absolute treat to photograph a wedding at!As a wedding photographer it is super important to work at a venue that has scenic opportunities so that may couples don't have to find an outside park somewhere to do their photos. The Seasons does not disappoint with that! They have beautiful waterfalls, a gorgeous garden area and an amazing indoor staircase! (see attached photos)Finally lets talk about their AMAZING cocktail hour! It's honestly the thing i look forward to the most when working here!I highly recommend this venue for anyone on the fence looking to book it!”

“The rockleigh is an amazing venue ! Beautiful ballroom great staff amazing food. And vendor friendly. Zara & Jeff are awesome to work with. Can’t wait to do more events !”

“I HIGHLY recommend RAIN. My daughter’s bat mitzvah was epic. Scott and Miriam covered every detail making it so easy and simple to throw a smooth and fun event. The DJ, emcee and dancers were incredible and had the whole crowd - from ages 2 to 52 dancing for the Bat Mitzvah girl- they just get it! And the space is so easy to customize to your own look. The parking made it very easy for our city friends to pull up and have a blast!! Thank you so much Scott and Miriam!!”
