We just held our daughter’s wedding reception at the Max of Eastman Place and I have to say thank you for all you did to provide the perfect venue for our special celebration. The staff was attentive and a pleasure to work with from beginning to end.
Everything was amazing and our guests had a wonderful evening. The food was spectacular and the ambience both inside and outside in the court yard was the perfect setting.
Everybody felt truly blessed with the entire evening....read full review
Brilliant, original food offerings. Flavorful without being overly spiced. Great service. It would have been helpful if the dinner menu presented at the table agreed with the menu on the website.
