“My friends and I had a wonderful time at America's Packard Museum! The vehicles on display were gorgeous and carefully maintained, and we learned so much about the detailed history of each one from an extremely helpful docent who was very patient with our many questions. We especially appreciated a number of features about early (and current) contributions of women in automotive history, most of which were new to us.”
“Have had a membership for years and frequently visit. It is a WONDERFUL place to go (repeatedly) with the grandchildren, or not! MANY adventures await: riding the carousel, pressing buttons on the model train display, climbing aboard the ARMCO engine, calling the dentist or florist on the old rotary dial phone, building with Lincoln logs or KNex, sliding down the hill in the tube slides, riding the train around the perimeter of the park, stopping in the print shop for a demo of old print presses (and walking away with a personalized card), eating in the tram in Culp's Cafe, etc. THEN add in the wonder of Carillon Lights during the holidays. This is a truly magical experience! Walking around the park at night when it is lit by string lights and Christmas music is playing throughout the park, hot toddy in hand, is amazing. On my visits to the park I've also seen the bald eagles several times, a pilated woodpecker and a hummingbird. This park has it all!!! Include a meal at Culp's Cafe or at Carillon Brewing with your visit, you won't be disappointed at the quality of food.”
“I love the look of the Grande Hall but unfortunately we won’t experience it in the way we would like. I inquired about a date over a week ago and was told by Shannon that it was available. She sent over the contract on 3/19 which was good for 10 days. I reached out to her multiple times through email, her personal number and the venue’s number but no answer about questions we had regarding the terms and conditions. Once 4 days went by I got concerned because we didn’t want to sign the contract without clarity because the deposit was also a lot of money. We figured that we probably shouldn’t sign at all let alone pay the deposit because we can’t even get in touch with anyone and that’s a big red flag. Well Shannon sends me a text message on the fifth day saying that she was out of office due to a shoulder injury and that she was getting all caught up at that moment with everyone and that she was going to reach out. We currently live abroad so I mentioned to her the time difference and that it would be best to reach out the next day (sixth day). She never reached out so now my fiancé and I confirmed that we shouldn’t go through the contract or deposit with this company. Although I still messaged her on the sixth day asking if she had a moment knowing I wouldn’t get a response, it was just very unprofessional on her end to not communicate or to not have a backup to assist with booking someone’s ceremony/wedding. We have been looking at this place for a while and took our time to find the perfect place so we thought for our big day just for it to be completely ignored. We would never inquire about services at this venue ever again or recommend to anyone who asks us. I hope this doesn’t happen to anyone else looking to celebrate something special at The Grande Hall. We are honestly happy it happened this way before our money was given away.
***Update
Jenna reached out to me due to my review being passed on to her. She worked to solve the problem before even reaching out to me which was great because it left no room for error or revisiting the problem. We loved how she mentioned that my review helped them within their company to make changes and not otherwise. Jenna immediately attended to how to fix the problem rather than what happen before. She offered a great deal and was still willing to offer that even if we decided to not try them again and that said so much from a business stand point but most importantly as a person. We are happy to say that we are having our wedding at The Grande Hall and since connecting with Jenna we have had nothing less than what we expected. Everyone that we are working with has went above and beyond to our needs and we appreciate that more than anything!”
“Really enjoyed this show. If you would like to have a "different" night out that doesn't cost too much with a nice, romantic vibe, go see Candlelight. I would go again.”
“I had my wedding at the Remedy in June 2025. I will recommend them over and over again! Didi and Travis have put so much into their business and their venue is so beautiful. I had the most perfect day there and cannot have asked for a better experience.”
“I attended the Edgar Allan Poe Speakeasy at Brightside. I was surprised, I did not know about this gem before hand. I love the style and the acoustics was very nice. Parking is an issue. Arrive early, car pool, or public transportation should be considered.”
“I deliver linen and china here. It's a beautiful place. Perfect for your event needs such as a wedding or homecoming party, whatever event you have. If you want somewhere nice you can't go wrong”
“Lisa did a fantastic job managing our wedding ceremony and reception! We couldn't have asked for more kind and helpful management from our venue. From suggestions of the menu and catering options to her "day of" assistance, Lisa went above and beyond. Beautiful venue, absolute hidden gem of the Dayton area! Highly recommend!”
“Best deli bistro in the area. Great management team in there moving them in the right direction. The food is amazing and the tables have awesome lazy Susan's in the middle which are always fun to sit around.”
“I rented the rose room to celebrate my wife’s 40th birthday. Everyone was kind and helpful. The venue was very nice and clean. It was a very pleasant experience. I would definitely consider having future events here.”
“Did a walk thru of this establishment for my wedding/reception and was very impressed. Chapel is very nice, clean and has comfortable seating. Bride and groom rooms are spacious and really nice. The venue is upstairs with full kitchen and plenty of seating and separate entrance. Owners are very nice and explained everything in detail. They also have Dayton's first and only Pickleball facility with 4 full courts and concession area. Plenty of parking and space in a very nice area off highway.”
“My husband and I went to Montgomery County Fairgrounds event center for the Greater Dayton Home Show to get ideas for the new house we are planning to have built. There were businesses for bathroom remodels, kitchen cupboards, flooring, a mattress business, roofing, etc. We got a lot of great ideas and met some very nice business owners and their employees. We even agreed to get an estimate to replace an old tub for a shower/tub combo in a house we purchased from my mother-in-law's estate that we plan to fix up and rent. We got the estimate two days after attending the home show and the price is locked in for a year. We decided to go ahead with this project. The employee, Ann, from Improve It was wonderful to work with and very knowledgeable.”
“I rented out the party room on 7/28/25 it was wonderful the owner was amazing. ? I will be using this establishment again, and recommending her to anyone looking to rent out a party room. THANK YOU ? ?? ? Amari Crowder”

“The Mandalay is always a great venue for large events. The reception room is a bit small for having 75 people plus tables for food, but the main room was nice. The chairs are comfortable and the linens were very nice. The food was chicken, vegetables and the sauce was nice. The butter selection was impressive. The restrooms were clean and parking was easy.”

“Went to the Unwind & Dine event yesterday with some of my dearest friends and babyyyy — it did not disappoint!
✨ 10/10 experience ✨
The food was fire ?
The music had us dancing all night ?
And the vibe? Grown, sexy & stress-free just how I like it!
Sometimes you really gotta step away from the hustle and just be present — laugh, love, and let go with your people.
Whewww, my soul needed that.”
