“Beautiful solo date/ date night experience. The staff makes you feel welcomed and comfortable. The instructions are very easy to follow. All the amazing scents to choose and the vast variety of vessels. I had an amazing time with my mom for her birthday. Thank you to the staff for making it such an amazing night.

Would definitely recommend I would definitely come again with my friends!”

“This theatre takes you back into time with its preservation! The Christmas Show featuring the Rockettes was superbly executed keeping the audience attentive and captivated through the show! A must see when in NYC during the holiday season.”

“We just had my daughter’s Bat Mitzvah at Rain and honestly couldn’t have been happier with how everything turned out. Scott and Miriam were incredible from start to finish. They were extremely helpful and responsive during the planning process and were there the entire night making sure everything ran smoothly. You can really tell how much they care.

The space itself is perfect for a Bar/Bat Mitzvah or any event really. The atmosphere is fun and modern, and the layout worked really well for both the kids and adults. The entertainment was absolutely amazing and everyone had such a great time. The extras like the photo booth, popcorn and cotton candy machines, air hockey, foosball, etc. really added to the party and gave it an extra kick.

We were also able to open up the outdoor space for dinner since the weather was beautiful, and that ended up being such a huge plus. Overall, Rain made the whole night special and easy, and we got so many compliments from our guests afterward. Will be doing more events there in the future. Highly recommend.”

“Choosing The Estate at Florentine Gardens for our wedding in November was one of the best decisions we made. From the moment we arrived, everything felt elegant, warm, and incredibly well thought out — but what truly made our experience unforgettable was the exceptional staff.

Every single person we worked with was perfectly accommodating, professional, and genuinely kind, making us feel completely supported throughout the entire day. Our wedding attendant, Monica, deserves the highest praise and biggest shout out— she was attentive, thoughtful, and always one step ahead of my needs (especially with the many outfit changes). Without her, I don't know what I would've done. My husband and I were able to relax and fully enjoy every moment without worrying about a single detail.

Our wedding coordinator, Samantha, was absolutely amazing throughout the planning process. She was organized, responsive, and incredibly helpful, guiding us with care and expertise every step of the way. Having her support made the entire experience feel seamless and stress-free.

And the cocktail hour food...omg truly the best ever. It was abundant, beautifully presented, and unbelievably delicious. We still hear our guests raving about it and telling us it was the best cocktail hour they’ve ever experienced at a wedding.

The grounds were stunning, the flow of the evening was flawless, and every detail was executed with such precision and heart. It genuinely felt like the entire team at Florentine Gardens was invested in making our wedding perfect — and they absolutely succeeded.

If you are looking for a venue that delivers timeless elegance, unmatched service, and an unforgettable guest experience, The Estate at Florentine Gardens is the one. We would choose it again without hesitation.

Highly, highly recommend ?

“DJ and Trey are the best!!! They are so easy to work with. They made sure that we had what we needed. The space is very pretty especially the kitchen. If you need a space to work from here on out I will always choose workville!”

“Thanks again for the warm hospitality. The location is great and the room just feels like home, nice and quite.I personally thanks Saloua for her excellent hospitality and care. Will definitely come back.”

“We had my wife's surprise 70th birthday party at the Park West Loft last weekend and it was a fantastic night thanks to Chris and his staff. The food and service was great and Chris was meticulous about planning the event, yet extremely easy to work with. He made sure everything went smoothly, including surprising my wife, which went off with out a hitch. The venue itself is wonderful, with a NYC vibe, and is well designed for a party.
I would recommend Chris, his staff and the Park West Loft without reservation.”

“I've taken several lessons with Hugh Heo. He has worked with me to relearn how to swing from the ground up. There has been a very noticeable improvement to my ability to play well and consistently after practicing what he has been teaching. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to get better.”

“We loved our stay at The Kimberly! The room was spacious and graciously appointed. The location was perfect…walkable and central to our needs. It was wonderful to have a balcony in the city! We would love to stay here again.”

“Rocked out at Bingo Loco... the hall was nice, clean, and easy to navigate. The hall was bigger than expected but still cozy. I love that the balcony area was not off in space and we could see cleary. Bars upstairs and downstairs. The bartenders were on point and the bathrooms were clean all night. What more could we ask for?”

“We hosted my daughter’s 4th birthday here and the team was exceptional. They were kind, patient and so thoughtful with the girls. Every detail was perfect. Couldn’t recommend enough!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 – A must-do New York experience
The Museum of the City of New York is an absolute gem. We loved every minute — it’s engaging, well curated and brings the story of New York to life in such an interesting and accessible way.The exhibits are informative without being overwhelming, and you walk away with a much deeper understanding of the city, its people and how it became what it is today.
If you’re visiting NYC, this should be on your list. A genuine must-do and a brilliant way to connect with the city beyond the usual tourist spots.”

“We had a great experience working with Midtown Loft & Terrace! We booked their rooftop venue for our wedding reception in late March and although the weather was cold so the roof and glass walls needed to be closed, it was decorated so beautifully and our guests had a great night. Not only was it a convenient location for people to get to, it also has beautiful city views and guest photos turned out amazing. The venue worked really seamlessly with our caterers and other vendors, and they were very easy to talk to while planning and asking questions.

Loved working with them and was so happy we could have our wedding there!”

“Sal the owner took care of everything we needed, was flexible, and was very welcoming & pleasant. Communicated with us immediately whenever we reached out. The venue itself was spacious & perfect for our party of 30, and it gave a very nice vibe almost club-like. The staff was friendly, and helped us with whatever we needed and the DJ provided was great as well. Definitely will be referring people here and booking again for future events.”

“A wonderful experience at Hudson Manor!

We recently provided a photo booth for a birthday celebration at Hudson Manor, and it was such a pleasure from start to finish. The venue is beautiful, easy to navigate, and perfect for hosting a lively event. Guests had plenty of space to mingle, enjoy the party, and jump into the booth without feeling crowded.

A huge shoutout to Ariel, who made the entire process seamless. He was organized, welcoming, and incredibly attentive throughout the event. From coordinating load‑in to checking in during the night, he made sure everything ran smoothly and that we had everything we needed. It’s rare to find a manager who balances professionalism with genuine kindness, but Ariel does exactly that.

If you’re planning a celebration in Fort Lee, Hudson Manor is a fantastic choice. Beautiful space, great energy, and a team that truly cares about your event. Highly recommend.”

“I recently celebrated my birthday at this venue, and it was truly an amazing experience from start to finish. The attention to detail was absolutely outstanding, and the staff went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect.

Everyone was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help with anything we needed. The atmosphere was beautiful, well-organized, and made the entire event feel special and stress-free.

My guests had a wonderful time, and I couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate my special day. I highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for excellent service and an unforgettable experience.”

“We have not been able to stop raving about Riverview and about our experience there. I can’t say enough good things about The Riverview. The team made sure our event was more than we could have ever imagined and asked for. I must have called over 50 venues before choosing this one, and not a single place came close to the level of professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail that Stefania and Arthur showed us. My mother, who owned a party planning business for years, even said she’s never seen a venue handle things this smoothly and thoughtfully.

From the very beginning, they went above and beyond. They thought through every tiny detail - things I wouldn’t have even known to ask about. They were incredibly responsive, even on weekends, after hours, and late at night and always made us feel like we were their top priority. Because we live far from the venue, Stefania not only arranged a virtual walkthrough for us, she then actually went through the space herself, gathered  photos of each area, and sent them to us with descriptive details so we could decide which rooms we wanted to use for specific parts of the wedding. They were incredibly accommodating and flexible. They were on-top of scheduling multiple meetings to make sure our whole event was perfect and exactly the way we wanted it to be.

They offered so many thoughtful touches - like including a beautiful bench option for under the bedeckin and even a chuppah - and packed so much into the package that most venues would charge extra for. They kept in constant communication, checked in regularly, and scheduled multiple meetings to ensure we felt completely ready.

The day of the wedding, everything was flawless. My father is handicapped, and they took the time to sit down with us beforehand to plan everything out carefully - even measuring the aisle to make sure it was comfortable for him. That level of care meant the world to us.

The venue itself is absolutely STUNNING - it is so regal, elegant, and well-designed. Our photos came out gorgeous. Friends of ours are still talking about the gorgeous venue and how beautiful all the pictures came out. What stood out most was the team's honesty and transparency; nothing was hidden or last-minute. They even helped us make decisions that a typical venue would never get involved in, essentially stepping in like our own event planners when we didn’t have one.

I can honestly say I’ve never felt more taken care of by a company. One guest actually told me during the wedding, “I’ve never seen a more relaxed bride,” and that’s 100% thanks to Stefania and Arthur at the Riverview team. Their coordination, communication, and genuine care made our entire experience with them unforgettable. Truly blown away by Riverview and could not recommend them enough!!”

“this place was amazing! the atmosphere and staff made my experience a 10/10. there one was specific young gentleman Zek, who was so kind and funny. He made our night ! ?”

“I recently hosted a Masterclass at SHiFT Midtown and was absolutely blown away by the experience. Not only were Kim and Bruno exceptional to work with in planning and coordinating everything, the day of the event went off without a hitch. The attention to detail and level of professionalism was first in class. The venue itself is so unique and a must to experience at least one time. 100% recommend hosting or attending an event here!”

“Comfortable seats with amazing leg room. The theater kind of needs a little tlc but clean.

*****Call Me Izzy - Excellent show and story. Leaves you thinking at the end. I was Johanna Day and she was wonderful.”

“The Pixel Lab was super nostalgic! From the front, it looks tiny but they offer a lot. There were a bunch of classic video and arcade games and I love that it's only $25 for a game pass or pay per hour. The day pass includes unlimited all you can drink fountain sodas and seltzers too so you'll never go thirsty here. You can also bring your own bottle and/or food and watch movies they play on a projector on the back wall. My boyfriend and I had a great time here, especially playing classic games on the Nintendo. Highly recommend for a fun night out!”

“The Mecca of the Sports and Entertainment world. And I was there for Dwayne Wade’s retirement tour if that even means anything. ??‍♂️Like I said, I’ve seen it all. Or at least almost seen it all…”

“I absolutely love love love The Little Gym. We were looking for something new to put our daughter in that she would actually enjoy. She is always talking about how much she loves her gymnastics class and her coaches, especially Coach Kayla. Coach Val, Coach Kayla and Coach Sophia are the best!!! My favorite thing about the classes is how they have different themes and switch it up all the time to help keep her engaged and excited week after week. Highly recommend!”

“I've attended several events at LUME and have even rented out LUME myself to throw a launch party for my own business

- The first time, I was there was for my best friend's birthday party. There were multiple DJs, and the lighting and visuals on the walls were insane. It was a great time.

- The second time, I was there was for a tasting event that featured Michelin-star chefs and Caribbean food. At first, I didn't even realize it was the same venue because the experience was so unique compared to my friend's birthday party, that it wasn't until I put two and two together after the fact and realized that the events, had in fact, both been hosted by LUME.

- The third time I actually had been invited to a corporate event in the fashion industry by one of my business partners, and again it was a completely unique experience.

When the time came that i needed a venue for my company's launch party, I rented LUME and had an
opportunity to meet the owner who was a pleasure to work with. And his team - let me tell you - they helped with the lighting, setting up the event, told me how to send out digital invitations, and even created a media package that I was able to send to all my guests afterwards.

This is a great spot, and I highly recommend it for anyone who needs a venue for an event of their own.”

“Instructors for kids programs are excellent. 4 yo has been really enjoying going to class for the last year and looks forward to class every week. Skills progressing rapidly. Highly recommend”

“I attended JFRE event last month or another name is Japanese Food & Restaurant Expo. It was super nice to see tons of vender and restaurant owner. It is a good opportunity to get contract and explore more high quality or get a good deal for your business if you are in this industry. The convention has separate section between food, drink and equipment. It was less people in the morning but super packed in the afternoon.”

“I had a celebration of life memorial here for my dad. The space was accommodating for our needs. The staff was friendly, helpful, and easy to communicate with. I also liked that we had lots of flexibility and time with setting up and cleaning after the event. We had the space for practically an entire day. My only issue is that it took a few days to get my deposit money back. I took off one star away for that. The staff was friendly still. They apologized and fixed the issue. Other than that, it was a good experience. I’d recommend it.”

“Nestled in tranquility, Housing works bookstore invites you to savor a book over a steaming cup of coffee. The impeccable service, though unobtrusive, adds to the charm. While the book collection isn’t extensive, it remains a delightful haven for leisurely moments.”
