Very large banquet hall. My school had its prom there. Staff appeared very professional and
were on top of every task. It is definitely worth a look for large gatherings.
Bill
I was a guest at a retirement dinner here and it was just wonderful. The food was good and the service was perfect. This is my 2nd time here and I wasn't disappointed either time.
Wonderful experience!
