“Food and drinks were okay. A little overpriced in my opinion for the drinks. Two small mojitos (not strong) cost $44. Had to keep going out the room to call them if we wanted to order drinks or food; so service could be a little more attentive. But they were accommodating and very patient when it came to splitting the bill unexpectedly. Staff was very friendly and welcoming. The room was spacious and had good sound.”

“We had a beautiful baby shower here in May 2024. Everything came out perfect. My guests had a wonderful time, they loved both the indoor and tented areas. I was able to play photos on the TV's and we had music throughout the space. Dana and her team assisted the entire time, and helped make the event run smoothly from start to finish. I highly recommend it!”
“Private brunch for a baby shower, the crew was fantastic, the fixing were on point and service impeccable. Lots of refills, tables cleared promptly and any needs met instantly. There was lots of street parking (meters and alt side) and all went as planned.”
“Joe Orzo and team went above and beyond to make my daughter’s wedding perfect! From the views to cocktail hour, to the most delicious food and bringing around second servings…. They outdid themselves!!!!”
“My husband and I had our wedding here on 2/16/24. It was the best day that we could have had. The staff is incredibly helpful, considerate, and truly made us feel cared for. The owner, John, and his staff (specifically James and Lisa) made this day so amazing for us. They were so good that I planned a wedding without a planner or a day-of coordinator and I was not worried in the slightest! The value you get at Stewart Manor is unbeatable and we will definitely be having more events there in the future!”
“I had my grandmother repast here. The space was clean and spacious. Miss D did a great job setting up the space. She was very pleasant and accommodating. If you are looking for a space to host your event then this is it. It won’t disappoint.”
“The theater is beautiful! Huge and powerful in its presence! It was an honor for me to sing the National Anthem for the People of the State Address by Jumanne D Williams at the Performance Art Center! A historic moment for me! I'd definitely like to perform there again! +ERecording Artist - Edwin Vazquez Musica”
“This venue has an antique elegance that doesn’t compare to another venue. It has a gorgeous layout that is perfect for an elegant event like a wedding or sweet 16. I highly recommend this venue. I had my sweet 16 here and the service was impeccable.”
“Celebration of life- Host Abraham was very accommodating. I loved that he had decorators/caterers to refer. He made a stressful sad situation smooth. Would definitely use again and recommend to anyone”
“We had a stepping up to Kindergarten party at Once Upon a Sundae and everything was great! The kids had a blast in the play area and of course loved the ice cream time toward the end. The owner and her assistants were really helpful as well. Thank you!!”

“We booked a joint birthday party for my daughter and nephew and were very pleased with the experience from start to finish. The team at Jungle Adventure were extremely responsive from our initial inquiry to our follow-up after the party. The team onsite during the birthday were organized, attentive and very helpful. The food catered was very good and the cakes were beautiful - all ordered and coordinated by Jungle Adventure, along with the double decor (we had a theme for each child). All of the kids had a wonderful time and enjoyed the facility. I would definitely do another party here as well as attend open play sessions. Thank you!”
“I recently had the pleasure of working with Kevin Guevara as our maître d' at Leonard's Palazzo, and he truly made our event seamless and enjoyable. Kevin was patient, kind, and helpful from start to finish. When we needed extra tables in the ballroom at the last minute, he made it happen quickly. Even when we needed batteries in a pinch, Kevin came through for us. He kept everything running on time, ensuring the flow of activities was perfect. Thank you, Kevin!!!”
“I saw Tiesto here. The venue is really cool. The open amphitheater layout really distributes the sound nicely. I was in the bowl section and didn't need ear plugs, my ears were not ringing by the end of the night. Ear plugs are normally a must for indoor venues.”
“I recently had my wedding at The Sands, and Lori and her team exceeded all my expectations. My bridal attendant was exceptional, always ready to assist with anything I needed. The entire staff truly made our wedding unforgettable. The food was absolutely delicious—a week later, family and friends are still raving about the cocktail hour and dinner. The service was fantastic and incredibly attentive. I can't express enough how wonderful my experience was; I wish I could relive that night over and over. Thank you to the entire Sands team for making our wedding the best night of our lives!”
“The owners were amazing this spot is very beautiful and then a great location if you have to drive or take the train. I really loved that they had chairs and tablecloths readily available and even the big Grand chair if you're having a baby shower or bridal shower or just honoring anyone at an event. There's also a heating area that can heat all your food that's not ready to be taken out and placed into serving trays yet.”

“Our daughter loves Dream City, so it was a no-brainer for me and my wife to host our daughter's 2nd birthday party there.From the initial planning to the day of the event, Dream City's professionalism and dedication were evident, making the entire process smooth and stress-free for us parents. The decorations were wonderful, and the staff were incredibly accommodating, attentive and friendly, ensuring every detail was taken care of.If you've been to Dream City before, you're aware of all the play areas and interactive games/activities they have to offer. Needless to say, there was endless fun for the little ones, and even some of the grown-ups! With cleanliness and safety also being a top priority, the kids were able to enjoy themselves freely, while giving the parents a bit of peace of mind.Overall, we highly recommend Dream City for any special celebration or event. Their dedication to providing a fun, safe, and memorable experience for children and families truly shines through. Thank you Dream City for making our daughter’s 2nd birthday a magical and unforgettable day!”
“I take my kids to Nana’s regularly. It’s clean, safe and full of fun courses for the kids (especially the slide and the huge ball pit area). It feels like they built this place with safety as their priority. There are no exposed sharp corners, fully covered floors and they also regularly sanitize the entire place. There is also an area with tables for adults with an unhindered view of the play area, so I can rest while also making sure that the kids are ok.”
“A great venue with a luxurious feel. I enjoyed my event with both levels and the owners were very helpful and accommodating. It has the space that’s needed to entertain your guest comfortably while having my event. The decor package that suite116 provides will make your vision complete and you won’t be disappointed in any way,shape or form. Highly recommended if you want a everlasting memory.”
“About two weeks ago, my family threw me a Sweet 16 party on the Skyline Princess!! It was amazing, and the staff are all so kind. The DJ on the third floor was on point, and he was kind enough to let me and my father do a dance together. It was such a great evening to celebrate with all of my friends and family. Everyone had a great time. It was a night I'll never forget!! Thank you so much ?✨”
“I had the absolute pleasure of visiting this hidden gem in Queens, and I can't say enough good things! From the moment I walked in, the hospitality was outstanding. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, and their customer service was top-notch. They were incredibly accommodating and made sure we had everything we needed, making the entire experience seamless and enjoyable.
The drink special is a real steal—such great value for the quality and taste! I also loved that the venue is super kid-friendly, which is a huge plus for all the parents out there. It's rare to find a spot that offers such a welcoming atmosphere for families while still being fun for adults.
I will definitely be coming back for my birthday! Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great time with amazing service. You won’t regret it!”
“Had some trouble booking online given cost and lmitations for needing one night with family of 4 (i.e. occupancy requirements per NY law)
Gat a chance to see the place in person while visiting family here at the beach. Beautiful location, great ambiance and looks like impressive food / service.
Hopefully will get a chance to stay in the near future perhaps when booking and schedule will allow it. Would recommend a visit to the grounds at the very least.”
“We just held a party for 80 family and friends to celebrate the upcoming wedding of our daughter and her fiancé at The Ocean Club. To be with loved ones in such an awe-inspiring setting was magical; the ocean, the most beautiful white sand, the gorgeous sunset-all enjoyed from their beautiful deck..:then the indoor and outdoor bar....and lovely ballroom. the atmosphere is casual yet elegant festive yet calm. There were really three parts to the experience and all three were perfect. First there is the period of selecting and working with the team: they couldn't have been more cooperative and helpful and responsive and flexible. Second is the event itself: ran absolutely smoothly and everything they said they would handle, they handled with great care. Third after the event; we left some items behind and they were in touch with us the very next morning. The Ocean Club works with one caterer and man what a skilled and delightful group of professionals who not only prepared delicious food but we're so invested in the success of our event that their presence enhanced the evening for all. Together this made for a perfect event!”

“I just had my daughter’s birthday at Kids N shape in Howard Beach. This is the third party I have done with them. This is the best place for parties! The staff take care of everything. Decor, food, activities. It is clean and safe. The employees are beyond helpful, sweet and willing to go out of their way to give the kids a great time. Christine has always been a great help when planning and when the day comes. It’s easy to get overwhelmed planning parties but she makes it so effortless and you feel relaxed ! All the kids always so excited when they get invited to a kids n shape party! They know they will have a blast. Thank you! Looking forward tk future parties with them!”
“This is our go to party hall in Queens, not only is the staff super friendly and accommodating, but the space is large enough for a decent sized party. We have had birthday parties, Christmas parties, weddings, anniversaries, baptisms, and even baby showers here. I couldn’t recommend this place more.”

“This was my first experience at a Kosher restaurant. The service was outstanding and the atmosphere was lovely. The food was absolutely delicious, and I look forward to returning!”
“It's a nice venue. Went to celebrate my cousins birthday. It's not too big or small. Clean space. It's far for mebto throw an event there, but I'd recommend it for others”
“Had a big birthday celebration Nov 23rd. Lee, the manager, was absolutely the best! Knowledgeable, affable, accommodating, patient. The room is large, tastefully done. Lee and his wonderful staff made my event spectacular. Thank you to all.”
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about The Inn at New Hyde Park! We recently celebrated my sister’s Sweet 16 here, and it was truly a beautiful and unforgettable experience from start to finish. Everythingfrom the stunning décor to the delicious foodwas perfect.
What makes The Inn even more special is that it has been a part of so many milestones in our family. My sister has celebrated her 16th, 18th, 21st, and now 23rd birthdays here, and each event has been just as magical as the last. The staff has always gone above and beyond to make every celebration feel unique and special.
Everyone we interacted with was an absolute pleasure friendly, attentive, and genuinely invested in making the night perfect. The atmosphere is elegant yet warm, making it the perfect place to celebrate life’s biggest moments.
The Inn at New Hyde Park will always hold a special place in our hearts, and I can’t recommend it highly enough for anyone looking to host a memorable event.”
“This place was awesome. I attended a baby shower here, though workers were extremely accommodating and attentive. A highlight was the decor for the party. It was beautiful. They had a floral pastel theme!!! Experience no issues or problems definitely would come again.”
