TERRIBLE TERRIBLE TERRIBLE place to have a party at. We had my mom’s 70th birthday there this past March and We so regret it. All the money we paid just to have that Pepe guy be unprofessional and very very rude. If you’re thinking of having a party here DONT!! Also the food tastes worse than hospital food.

If I could I would give zero stars. The old man who answered did not even greet and told me to hold only. He was not very helpful and kept insisting to use website. What is the purpose of having a phone number to call if they are not very helpful and so rude. He hung up and was very unprofessional. Will never call again or recommend this place.

I recently hosted my daughter's Sweet Sixteen at Pierre’s Banquet, and it was absolutely perfect! From the initial planning to the day of the event, the staff was incredibly professional, attentive, and accommodating. They made sure every detail was taken care of, allowing us to relax and enjoy the celebration. The venue itself was stunning-elegant, spacious, and beautifully decorated. The lighting and ambiance created the perfect party atmosphere, and our guests couldn't stop complimenting the setup. The sound system and dance floor were great, keeping the energy high all night!.

We celebrated our Mother’s 70th Bday this past Saturday, the staff was great, Marty and a young gentleman were awesome. Our problem was with Pepe pepillo you know the old man that likes to dress up, he is rude and ignorant has no type of respect for paying customers, obviously we spend a pretty penny on this banquet hall you would think he would be grateful we pay for his bills and thanks to paying customers he has a job but no he is very unprofessional, when he needed that deposit he would not stop calling and harassing us to sign the contract with him and sold us a whole different version of his attitude towards us. First the day we signed the contract we told them out of 150 guest some would be children we just didn’t know the total count yet, he said it’s ok we can put 150 adults for now and then when you get the total of kids let us know and you’ll get a discount as kinda meals are discounted, well a week before we called to add 10 kids and he had a whole different version of what he said, he then said we had to pay for 150 adults and children would be paid extra so total of 160 guests.. mind you this was not what he said in the beginning, all lies with him!! Second he told us the total balance had to be paid a week before the party… and 4 weeks before he called my sister and threatened to cancel the party for not having full payment, literally lies after lies and he literally sits there and argues with the customers, so ghetto and unacceptable behavior, I wouldn’t waste my money here EVER AGAIN. also food is terrible like not good at all!! And the drinks are mediocre the bartender is also so, so rude acts like he is doing you a favor by serving you a drink again we paid a pretty penny for this event you would think it’s top notch but no where near!! 0/10 definitely would NEVER recommend!! Don’t waste your money here literally there are hundreds of better banquet halls. We learned our lesson!!

I hosted my event at this venue in November, I was very delight with the venue and the initial customer service received when we signed the contract. While the décor was beautiful and the food was good, my experience became increasingly disappointing as I sought clarification on certain aspects. The representative assisting us displayed a passive-aggressive attitude, making it feel as though he wanted the event to be managed solely on his terms.
Pros: • Beautiful Décor: The venue was beautifully decorated • Discount on the DJ service (Note: This discount will be offset as you will incur a 20% fee plus 10.75% tax on the full original price, meaning the actual savings will be lower than stated). Cons: • Lack of Transparent Pricing: When I reached out to understand the pricing structure, I encountered unprofessional and defensive responses. Simple inquiries about charges were met with aggression, making it difficult to get clarity. • Strict Catering Policies: Outside food is not allowed, including desserts and cakes, which must be purchased from their bakery. The dessert table, which is charged per person, contained only a limited selection of pastries and pre-packaged cookies—making it overpriced for what was provided. Additionally, the chocolate fountain and dessert table were removed before guests had finished. • Restrictions on Third-Party Decorators: Hiring an external decorator comes with an additional fee of $2,500 if they require more than an hour for setup. Furthermore, the process is made challenging as they bombard you with numerous questions when trying to bring in a third-party decorator. • Inflexible Headcount Policy: Once the initial headcount is provided, it cannot be adjusted down, except when upgrading from child to adult. This policy feels restrictive and unfair, as it does not allow for necessary modifications. • Additional Fees: A 20% service fee is added to the bill, along with a 10.75% tax on all add-ons, significantly increasing the overall cost. • Over-Promotion by the Host: The host frequently promotes his own business during the event, making it feel more like a marketing opportunity for him rather than a personal celebration. • Small Portion Sizes: The food portions were insufficient for the price charged plus food was taken from the table before our guests had even finished eating. • Delays and Poor Time Management: The dinner service was significantly delayed, causing a rushed experience that affected the overall flow of the evening, including dinner, entrances, and dancing. • Unprepared Venue: The venue was not ready at the agreed-upon time, further complicating the event's schedule • Overpriced: The overall cost did not reflect the value provided. • Musicians: We hired a Banda that was asked to leave 30 minutes before the agreed time because the representative did not approve of their vibe. Also, he requested a payment of $40 per person for their drinks, which we refused to pay. Later, the representative returned, stating that he would cover the cost himself.
Final Thoughts:
I would not recommend this venue. I spent a significant amount of money and did not feel it was worth the cost or the stress I encounter during the planning process. I encourage you to explore alternative options to avoid a similar experience. Take the time to thoroughly read and understand the contract before signing. This is my most honest and unbiased review of the venue.

I had my wedding here and it was a horrible experience to say the least. Marti the owner is unprofessional and condescending. She will compare you to other clients. She will belittle you. She will say no to ideas but then when you go in with your husband say, “we work with you,” but then doesn’t. She told me she wanted to cancel my event cause “I” was being difficult, then continued to talk down on me as if I was her child. Apparently asking question and asking for receipts is being difficult. The only reason she didnt (I wish she did) was because of my husband, not the fact that it was 2 weeks away. Unfortunately, we had paid in full very early on because they needed the money to pay bills, (her husband words) which is the first red flag and we wouldn’t have gotten a refund if we cancelled. She told me she doesn’t need my event and showed me another clients event that was spending way more than mine. She would go on talking about, it’s about trust when I asked for detailed receipts. But, it’s not about trust, it’s business and you clearly give contracts. My wedding planning was horrible because of her. Day of the wedding, she was in fact cordial. But, I will say food was bland and bartender kept making faces to my guest ordering drinks. Overall, do not recommend this place. Service is horrible. You’ll find a much better venue elsewhere.

The place is VERY beautiful and VERY clean. The staff I came across was amazing all night. They were all VERY busy but polite. My God I was amazed at how busy they all were but very quick!!!!!! There was always someone who came and grabbed our trash. Our server was a young, thin young lady with black hair, approx shoulder length. We were on the right side of the hall in the vip section, close to the table where all servers go to after we placed an order. This young lady was SO busy tending to many tables at onceall night. She was so kind and polite each time we saw her. She constantly asked if we were ok. If she couldn't help us right away she made sure to tell us she'd be right back and each time she sure did. A couple times someone else brought us our drinks or food. Im imagining it's because she was so busy. She still came back & double checked that they brought us what we asked FOR each time. I was amazed. She really made me feel at home!! She was a true sweetheart. Please acknowledge her and all the staff. I wish i had gotten her name! This whole place was amazing!!!!
I had a very disturbing experience with Pierre's Banquet Hall. I visited to schedule an event. The initial representative stated that they would be excited to host the event, had the date available & even allowed me to tour the space that I would be able to book. I received a quote and was scheduled to drop off the deposit and meet the owner. Upon arriving to the establishment with the deposit, I was not warmly welcomed and was told that all the things that were promised me the week before would not be honored or extreme fees would be added. These were basic requests---hot water at every banquet table & preferred number of chairs at each banquet table. The owner refused to finalize the contract but stated that she would take the deposit. I stated that the deposit will be given when the contract was finalized. Immediately after leaving the banquet hall & meeting with the owner, I reached out to the original representative who quoted me for the event and confirmed specific requests. The original representative I spoke with showed a completely different personality and was disgustingly rude and abrasive and said the owner did not want to do business with me---"the owner did not see having a long term relationship". Then, it was shared that they would consider hosting the event if I paid more than twice the original quote. Why would the price that was quoted change? I was extremely disturbed by the horrific customer service & price gouging. As a corporate & private event planner, I was left in SHOCK! After this disgusting interaction, I wanted to research the banquet hall further to see if this is a consistent experience for others. AND IT IS! It was heartbreaking to read ALL THE HORRIBLE experiences from others. I am SO GLAD that this bullet was dodged and I did not fall into the price gouging trap, with horrible customer care.
I was extremely fortunate to find another banquet hall that EXCEEDED my expectations.
Pierre's Banquet is not it!

Pierre's did am amazing job for my mom's 70th Birthday/retirement party. The service was great. They were very accommodating to our needs and exceeded our expectations. Pepe was extremely helpful, attentive, responsive, and knowledgeable. The ball room was elegant and beautiful. My mother and her guest had an amazing time. Thank you to Pepe and your staff for making my mom's party so memorable.
