We had our wedding here last month. They had great food – braised beef and salmon was out main entree. However, the servers didn’t treat my guest nicely. We had 2 extra plates because 2 people didn’t show up and when asked if other guests could take it home since it has already been paid for, they said no. I found out that my family and friends were given bad attitude when they asked for coffee and tea or an extra slice of cake. The day of the wedding (1 hr before the ceremony) I had an argument with the person setting up the table because the seating arrangements I was given was different from what they set up. They wanted to put my vendors table in the middle of the guests and I argued and said I wanted it in a corner so that it doesn’t look empty in the middle since vendors won’t be sitting most of the time. The manager had to come and tell him to do what I want. They took away my little cousins French fries before she fished. They took away the bread rolls before people could get any. They would not let me aunt give her dessert to her daughter. These were complaints from people seated in different tables… I also got complaints about the bar tender and how he looked grumpy at the beginning on the reception until the end. I was told that he was rude and was giving my guests attitude. As much as I liked how the place and food turned out, I wish I didn’t have to argue with them and I would’ve loved for my guests to be treated nicely. On the positive side – Klarissa was awesome and is really great in what she does. She helped us a lot and was very kind in every step of the way.

L.A. Banquets – Glenoaks Ballroom – Menu with Prices – 1320 W Glenoaks Blvd, Glendale

So so so so so amazing!! I couldn’t have asked for a better night! It really blew us away to know that was our wedding. Your staff are amazing and everything surpassed perfect! Our guest felt appreciated and and were highly taken care of. Haik listened to all my wants and need and never hesitated on reassuring everything was going to be great. Lol He pretty much said yes to everything and even through in extra accommodating things to help our wedding become a memorable moment! Everything we asked of him, he got it done, no problem at all! The food was AMAZING ! to be honest , I had low expectations on wedding food in general , but Haik reassured me the food tasting would give us assurance. When we made it to our food tasting so much dood to choose from, not only that, it blew us away with how tasteful everything was! We didn’t expect it to be that good at all, by the time we went back to our hotel, we realized we still wanted to go back there and we at for dinner lol. All in all, the food was definitely one of the biggest hits for ourselves as well as our guest. Haik is nonetheless one of the best vendors I’ve worked with. Very accommodating, great professional attitude ; and very very kind. He’s a pro at what he does. And he and his staff work very well together! I applaud the hard work I’ve seen leading up to the wedding, and the day of was even better than my wildest dreams! I’m impressed and if I could do it all over again, this place literally stole my heart ! Thank you so much Haik!! You definitely exceeded our expectations !!!

Paradise Bar Events – Menu with Prices – 9927 Venice Blvd, Los Angeles

I HAD to write a review for this amazing company! I am a wedding planner and recently had my own wedding, and I was determined to get the best bar, because we all know that makes a wedding! I had not previously worked with this company, just found them online and sent a message. Joy wrote back to me very quickly and anything I needed or wanted they were able to accommodate. There setup was just as gorgeous as the pictures they sent me and the bartenders that worked my wedding were AMAZING. And when we had our final walk-through, they were one of the only vendors I had that was 100% on top of things. Not only were they great and had a nice set-up, but there prices were so reasonable and they had no problem working out deals with me. And literally when people talk to me about the wedding they ALWAYS bring up how friendly my bartenders were and how great the drinks were. I would recommend them to anyone, and I will refer all of my clients to them from here on out! From start to finish they were truly wonderful to work with, special thanks to Joy and Aaron for all your hard work!

Whipped Bakery – Menu with Prices – 401 N Clippert St, Lansing

We ordered our cake many months in advanced after tasting a variety of flavors and making the initial deposit all in the same day (approx. 12 months before our wedding). About 5 months before our wedding we went to the bakery to change the color scheme. They could not find the order. The clerk was going to have the owner, who took our initial order and down payment, give us a call so we could update the color. After 4 days of not hearing a word from the bakery I called them. The owner found the order after a few minutes stating that the order was misplaced into another stack. The color change was made. About one month before our wedding the remaining balance was paid off. I called the bakery 17 days prior to our wedding day just to verify that all details were correct. Then, the Wednesday before our wedding I stopped in to verify once more (I did this with all the vendors assisting us with the wedding). Everything was all set. Whipped Bakery was going to make a delivery in Lansing and then deliver our cake around 3:00. So, now its our wedding day. The 4:00 ceremony is over and the cake has not been delivered. I call the bakery, knowing they were closed but hoping to leave a voicemail. I left a voicemail at 5:18 (cocktail hour has started and dinner is going to begin within 15 minutes). Dinner began at 5:30 and at 5:51 I received a voicemail from the bakery (with the noise I did not hear the phone ring) stating that the delivery time is scheduled for 5:30. The cake never showed up until 6:15. This 4 tiered cake was leaning, did not have enough frosting between the two layers of cake on each level, and they did not put on the cake topper as they stated they would do. The cake was delivered, placed on the table and at least 25% of the guests saw the delivery person hustle out the door before they would have to answer any questions as to why this delivery was so screwed up. I will say that the cake tasted good but Whipped Bakery as left a bad taste in our mouth, the mouths of our guests, and the mouths of the other vendors that assisted with our wedding. They have lost more business than they know.

Mr D’s Donut Shop – Menu with Prices – 11222 W 75th St, Shawnee

We used Mr. D’s donuts for our wedding and we couldn’t be happier with how things turned out! First, the owners (Johnny and Bonnie) were so helpful and sweet! They helped us make decisions regarding what we wanted served and were so accommodating when we asked to meet for a tasting. They also sent us the sweetest note for our wedding and followed up to make sure everything went smoothly. They are such amazing people! The donuts were INCREDIBLE and all of our guests loved them. We had such a difficult time choosing what to serve because we loved every single flavor of donut. We ordered more than enough and they were all gone very, very quickly because our guests enjoyed them SO much. We will definitely be back and would recommend this donut shop to anyone!

Firewall Food Stop Menu with Prices 1546 Ralph David Abernathy Blvd SW, Atlanta

I used Firewall Food Stop for the catering at my wedding in March, and could not be happier with how everything turned out. The reception venue had a place for Food Truck parking, so we had them bring the truck over, to prepare and serve the guests at our wedding. The food was delicious, and we have heard nothing but rave reviews from the guests that attended the event. Sam provided an awesome buffet line, as well as wood fired pizzas for the main course (cooked on the truck). The buffet included their specialty sandwiches/hummus/veggies/appetizers, so guests could eat some smaller dishes, while they awaited their pizza orders. Our wedding had approximately 130 guests in attendance. With that many people, the main issue we wanted to avoid, was prolonged waiting times for pizzas. Sam’s planning and expertise ensured everything went off without a hitch. I would HIGHLY recommend using them for any/all catering needs! They are the best!

The Music Box Village – Menu with Prices – 4557 N Rampart St, New Orleans

Oh man! Thank you to Music Box for letting Austin and I use your space for our wedding. This venue is magical! Our guests had the time of their lives playing music on the structures. It is also just a beautiful space in itself. Austin and I wanted a venue that was not your typical wedding venue and we got it. Thank you to Alita who got this plan going. Alita met with us on multiple occasions to go over what the venue offers and she set me up with the amazing staff to continue coordinating the wedding. Syd, you are above and beyond! Syd came in close to the end of planning but made it seem as if she was there the whole time. She was ultra supportive and really listened to Austin and my vision. She took time to set up a run of show plan and when it all went down, it was PERFECT! Syd is truly a genius at her job and could not have asked for a better coordinator. Thank you to all of the staff that went in to making the wedding happen. So grateful for everyone involved. If you are looking for a wedding venue, Music Box is the place to go. You and your guests will not be disappointed. Most fun we have ever had! We will definitely be back for a show!

Miss Cue North – Menu with Prices – 216 New Towne Square Dr, Toledo

Been here before, nice place, nice tables, good service. But last night the bartender was rude from the beginning, but just brushed it off and ignored it at first. She gave attitude to most people in my party at different times and even other groups where talking about the rude bartender. She charged for doubles, when he didnt ask for a double pour. He even came back to the table saying he thought he pissed the bartender off by asking for less Sprite since it was in a tall glass. She did ask if we wanted to play by the hour when we were already 10 feet away walking to the table, so we were charged by the hour, when we could have paid an all night fee for more than half the cost. And no discount for ladies night since men played at the table. Just be aware of the underlying charges and attitude.

Cakes by Gray Menu with Prices 41N Merrimon Ave, Asheville

Melissa is SO talented with her creative flavors and designs that I was instantly drawn to her when booking a baker for our wedding. Because we were having a very small and intimate wedding of only 36 guests Melissa gave us a box full of cupcakes for our cake tasting! She not only filled the box with the options we wanted to try but she also gave us many more options of her very best recommendations. I must admit that they were all so very delicious that it made it very hard to choose! We settled on a 3-tiered marble and red velvet “naked” cake. The top and bottom tiers were marble and the middle tier was red velvet, all covered in buttercream icing. We also had Melissa make caramel-dipped Granny Smith apples for us and our guests as a delicious wedding favor. We received so many compliments over how beautiful the cake was and how delicious the cake and the apples were! I’m so glad I stumbled upon Melissa and were able to book her for our most important and special day. Thank you Melissa!!

I d’ Ã?clair Pastry – Menu with Prices – 1800 E Lincoln Ave Unit D, Fort Collins

I contacted Espresso people months in advance for a brunch wedding. As all the other vendors had me sign contracts and pay a deposit, when I asked about the same for this vendor, I was told she didn’t have contracts and had never had a problem. I communicated a few times as the date approached and the owner seemed very responsible and proactive about electricity, set up space and the services we were asking for, which included 2 baristas. She shared that her daughter was getting married the week before our event, I sent her the name of our venue, an address and a Google map direction, well in advance of that week. I have no idea if her daughter’s wedding caused extra stress, but must say that things got weird after that week. The night before the wedding, while we were out at the rehearsal dinner, the owner sent an email asking for confirmation. I would question this timeline as most people aren’t on the internet the night before a wedding and I thought this was all taken care of. I didn’t receive that email, as we were busy with other wedding things. The morning of my daughter’s brunch wedding, I woke early for last minute preparations. I noticed that an email was sent at 4am. The owner said she was cancelling our event because she didn’t feel comfortable sending her people to a non-verified address. I was in shock and frantically sent two emails and tried to call her. I received a message that the number I was calling was disconnected. I had not signed a contract and had not paid money, but was so sad that our great coffee bar for a brunch wedding was being cancelled. My sweet husband mentioned that if missing coffee was the worst thing to happen, we were still in good shape and shouldn’t worry. Our venue was in the foothills behind Horsetooth and didn’t have cell service or internet, so we called family before we left Fort Collins and asked if they would buy coffee cups at the store and pick up large containers of coffee from a local coffee place as our caterer had been told we didn’t need coffee and breakfast without coffee was not a great option. Later that morning, as the wedding was just beginning, we were pleasantly surprised as the coffee cart showed up! They did a great job and all the guests were happy, but we had tons of extra regular coffee and lots of cups (not to mention the extra cost and the stress) that were not necessary. The hired workers, not the owner, said they were always planning on coming and had no idea why we got a message that they were cancelling. After the event, my husband paid using the invoice they gave us and gave a 20% tip to the baristas. In the following few days, I received another email from the owner with a new invoice that was a higher price. I wrote and showed that we had already paid and showed the included tip and said I wasn’t paying anymore. I never heard from her again.

El Riad Shrine – Menu with Prices – 510 S Phillips Ave, Sioux Falls

My now husband and I just used the El Riad Shrine as our wedding reception venue and we absolutely loved it and would recommend it to anyone! Joel is such a great person to work with during the planning process. He is very quick at responding to any questions and was always willing to work with my work hours if I wanted to go in for a visit or to see someone else’s wedding setup. They are such a flexible venue and able to accommodate large crowds with the spacious layout but definitely be sure to book early! We booked over a year ahead of time and got the only weekend they had available left in September. They have décor you can use if you’d like, they provide the linens for you, they provide a wedding coordinator to help manage delivery and setup with your vendors, they provide a bartending staff, you can bring in whichever caterer you would like for food.. I could go on and on. There are so many great things about using The Shrine as your wedding venue. You could even use the stage and get married there as well and they have a great dance floor! They really were an all-around great group of people to work with. We had the Clown group bartend at our wedding and they were an absolute blast! They were willing to do whatever to make sure we were happy with our experience there and we most definitely were! I would 100% recommend them to anyone for their wedding and am so thankful we chose them for ours

The Original Barrio Fiesta of Manila – Menu with Prices – 818 N Pacific Ave & Arden Ave, Glendale

VERY VERY POOR CUSTOMER. Before I ordered the Kare kare, I asked how many ox tails was included the waiter, I think his name is Jay or jr. We’ll he told me that it came with 2 big ox tails and some tripes and beef briskets. He mentioned if I just want the ox tails instead of the other meats, it would be the same price of $24.00 for large. But when he was explaining it to me, that he’ll put more ox tails, he said it will be extra. So I think he wasn’t telling me the truth. So I ordered our food -crispy binagoongan , kare kare, pinakbet. And rice. When the food finally came, my wife and I were very very disappointed that kare kare didnt have the big ox tails. That he said it would. We didn’t want to complain right there, so I called and ask him why is there only 2 small ox tails. I asked him where is the big ox tails, he said he never said that and he said there’s 2 in pot. He had an attitude bcuz I questioned the food. He then said he will get more ox tails. When he came back he brought over 1 small ox tail in a very tiny, small pala yok. What a joke , I knew his was making fun of me bcuz I complained. He also was asking me if I was good when he brought the small ox tail. I didnt want to make a scene. We as paying customer either Filipino or other ethic background be treated with respect . I was respectful towards him . I paid my hard earned money to eat good Filipino yet I got very very bad customer service and the was not great at all. The reason we went to this location is bcuz the one in north hills was busy. I told my family and friends of my bad experience here. They just lost a good paying customer. This facility needs to learn people skills. I do not recommend this place even if they giving food for free. Oh almost forgot, I called the place to speak with the manager, Jay answered. I ask for manager he said no one available. I asked for managers name. He would not give name. He asked why I wanted to speak to manager I replied I wanted to complain about customer service. He again had an attitude on the phone. So I just hung up on him.. For Jay being in the customer’s eyes. By giving poor customer service gives us Filipinos a bad name.. I even left a 18% tip of bill $64.70. knowing if I didnt he would be talking bad about us shame on you Jay Treating customers poorly. Had to pick 1 star or I can’t post. Zero rating:(!!

Fresh Smoothies & Cafe – Menu with Prices – 2450 Creston Ave, The Bronx

I would like to think it was because I came in 15 min to closing but that shouldnt change the attitude that you have towards the customer. I walked in and the ladies were talking they looked at me and continued talking. Very disrespectful didnt get greeted or anything, so I said excuse me and asked for what I wanted. Then I told her ill buy an orange juice aswell only for the simple fact that I wanted to see the machine working she stated that the machine is off and the juice was premade that defeated the purpose of wanting the juice so I didnt get it, but They have a lil process that’s done to meet customers satisfaction they serve you an ounce or 2 of w.e. smoothie you ordered to taste for perfection incase you want to add anything or change anything but as I get my sample the lady started to pour it in the cup, didnt wait for my opinion. It wasnt as cold as I would have wanted it to be but didnt wanna start anything I just said it was fine. The one moping gets mad because my boots were dirty she told me to stand by the door and the other lady tells me to come over to the cashier to pay and the one mopping gets mad. I just think for a first time experience on a Friday night it should have been a little better.. I’ll come again another time maybe I’ll change my rating but as of now very disappointed
