I cohosted my parents 50th wedding anniversary here and the service from Hugo and his staff exceeded our expectations. The food is absolutely delicious. They recently renovated their catering location - it’s now a beautiful contemporary space. Everything from the moment we booked the location till the end of the party, it was all fantastic. Thank you!
