Royal Palace Banquet Hall

Best overall banquet hall

From beginning to end Royal Palace provided us with excellent service for our wedding. Their service is top notch. We have had several events recently at different halls and while they were all good, Royal Palace went above and beyond to make our wedding spectacular. The food is ridiculously abundant. It literally never stops coming. The waiters and manager have the best attitudes and everybody's job that night is to make sure that you are totally satisfied. Job VERY well done. Our guests were all impressed and you will be too. You should definitely consider this place if you are having between 200-350 people. You will not be disappointed.

Heartbeat DJ

You can't go wrong...

Vasken is definitely the BEST Armenian DJ there is. You will totally get your money's worth and shouldn't think twice about hiring him. He was a very important part of making our wedding a very memorable one for us and our guests. We are so happy we found him and you will be too. He is a master of his art.

Little Russia

Excellent choice for less than 100 people

I had my engagement party here and it was excellent. It was exactly what I wanted in terms of a cozy, intimate feel with great food and excellent service. We had a comfortable dance floor and plenty of room for people between tables. We had just under 100 people. I would highly recommend this place if you are having less than 100 people. Anything more will just be cramped and probably annoying for your guests.

DJ Armen

Good DJ

We booked him for our party. He was great! He definitely played what the crowd liked and was very professional. You can feel comfortable booking him for your event but if you want specific songs played then make sure that you don't just provide a genre but song titles and artists.

Van Bakery & Restaurant

Is this hospitality???

My now fiance and I saw this place and thought it very cute for a quaint engagement party. The woman who helped us was very nice and seemed to be very accommodating. She knew that we had just driven past the place and were not familiar with the food.
She insisted on having us try the food from the bakery next door so we would be confident that the food was fabulous and book the place. We thought it a very nice gesture and so very hospitable. Imagine our surprise when my fiance decided to sample a few things at her suggestion on a plate and then was given a total at the register. TACKY! We don't expect to get anything for free but to INSIST that we try the food and then charge us left a bad taste in our mouth (no pun intended).
