We had our reception at the Mokena location and it was everything I could have imagined!! The price was very affordable and the food was the best reception food I have ever tasted!! If I had to do it all over again I would not change a thing!! It is close to two very nice hotels and to the expressway!! I could go on and on..... The only thing that I wasn't happy about was that they wouldn't bend on the exclusive packages!! But besides that it was excellent!!!

I was completely satisfied with DiNolfo's Homer Glen. Not only is the venue beautiful and elegant, the staff from the front office to the waitstaff were nothing but accommodating. There was not a single problem or bad thing that I can say. Everything was perfect.

Dinolfo's Banquets is in my opinion the industry leader in value price and service! The time that Meghan spent with us was priceless. She spend every moment that we needed helping us select which of the two colors we wanted to use for the sashes on the chair covers. She spent numerous amounts of time demonstrating the different ways to tie the chair sashes. She toured the facilities with us on about seven different occasions to make sure that we understood everything they had to offer. She even called us to let us know of special discounts that were available on certain things that we had to decline due to budget issues but somehow she always seemed to get her what she wanted at a price that would meet our pockets. She recommended several vendors for our ceremony site, one of which we used. Excellent! And she spoke to me on the phone the day before the wedding for about 20 mins calming me down about some of the last minute issues that arose. The service that they provided was so excellent that we even convinced our aunt to entrust two of our vendors with her 70th birthday party. Dinolfo's and Event Trendsetters!

Our reception was held in the Mokena location. Either location provides a wonderful menu at an outstanding price! Although a bit smaller with a few less amenities than the Homer Glen location I loved it - perfect for my wedding. I think the lighting is more aestheticly pleasing as well - the chandeliers are beautiful! We booked on a Friday and had the entire site to ourselves! Everyone we worked with was professional, fun and accomodating. I made many changes and was undecided much of the time and they were very patient and would give suggestions. The room was amazing - large, great fabrics, big dance floor... Also, they gave my husband a "groom's portion" of the prime rib...it was practically a full roast!! Go check it out!

My sister had here wedding at the Mokena location in 2006. As her maid of honor (and wedding planner) I was along when she looked at this location. At that time, they were still building the new Homer Glen location and only had the future pictures displayed. I knew the minute I saw thoses pictures that that was where I wanted my reception. I got engaged the year after and booked the Homer Glen location after only one month of being engaged - we had two years until the wedding still!
I loved the staircases and the windows and outside terrace in the end rooms. It was beautiful and just what I wanted. Turns out I was so wrapped up in the excitement that night, that I never actually got to go outside and enjoy the terrace that I had wanted so badly! :) All of the guests enjoyed it, though, and raved about it afterwards!
The food was great and the service was good as well. The only complaint I have is that they brought the food out on ugly metal industral looking carts, which I can understand makes it easier, but some ended up in some pictures, and it looked really tacky. Other than that, everything was perfect.
The staff was very friendly to work with, I think I worked with just about everyone in the front office, and was also treated like they knew me and knew about my event, which was really nice. I was even able to trade some items from one of the add-on options - like I really didn't need the ice sculpture and was able to get some additional fruit trays and hors d'oeuvres. Plus, the fruit trays are typically placed out with the sweet table at the end, but I knew I wouldn't eat any of the hors d'oeuvres and really wanted a fruit tray available for the bridal party as soon as we got there - and they were super nice about making sure one was up in the bridal suite for just us!
All in all, everything was perfect, and I couldn't have been happier!

We loved our wedding the Homer Glen DiNolfo's. Food was great! Service was great! The planning process was smooth. They were not very flexible when it came to the rentals/negotiating prices, etc. They required you to rent linens from them at a higher price...but other then that they were wonderful to work with!

Dinolfo's was AMAZING! They were always prepared! I changed my mind a million times and they were never rude about it... They said "this is why we write in pencil!" I couldn't believe how helpful they were with everything! The night of our wedding we had tremendous service! The head waitress introduced herself right away, the manager was there and made sure to sto p by every table to check to see that things were good. At the end of the evening they packed up my cake serving set, extra favors, gift box, cake topper, toasting flutes, I mean everything put it on a cart and wheeled it out to our car and loaded it all in. The bartenders knew all night what my husband and I were drinking so every time they saw either one of us on the way to the bar they had our two drinks waiting! I cannot say enough about how wonderful they were! The food was hot and delicious and I had nothing but compliments from all of our guests!

I LOVED Dinolfo's. Everybody is still raving on how we had such a fun wedding. You can go meet them anytime of day and just walk in. They are super flexible and very accomodating. We had reserved the two middle rooms for the 200 min. requirement. Just because of our budget. Well since no other weddings were booked that day the moved us to the bigger room for no extra cost and they helped to setup and decorate. It was fantastic. The food was exellent. Warning we did not get a taste test but when I first tasted the food it was FANTASTIC. People said best wedding food ever. It was warm, steamy, and plenty of it! We did family style and it was a big hit. The coordinaters came by frequently to make sure me and my husband were happy and comfortable and if there was anything we needed them to do. I would highly recomend Dinolfo's to everybody! Fantastic and beuatiful!

My new bride and I were married May 9th 2009 and went to Dinolfo's because we had heard many good things and boy were they right not only did they exceed every possible expectation but they also recommended our D.J. and photographer and it
was spot on the whole way. The food was great the service was fabulous and absolutely everything went off without a hitch. I highly recommend that you at least consider DiNolfo's and give them a chance to impress you the way they impressed my wife and I.
Thank you Laureen,Chris and staff great job

Both wedding ceremony and reception were at the Homer Glen location, and it was simply amazing! The place is breathtaking, not to mention affordable. We fell in love with it from the minute we walked in. Typically we take 24 hours before making a final decision, but I wanted it that day. The Dinolfo brothers and Janet were flexible with payment plans and the million times I called for confirmations and verifications. When the big day arrived, we were the only party there during the day, so the entire staff was at our becon call. The food was great, well seasoned and cooked just right. The only thing I didnt approve of is that they showed our room during our reception without our permission, and the staff kept unlocking our bridal suite which had alot of personal items in there. I would have to say that Dinolofo's was the perfect choice for our perfect occasion. We had elegant and classy on a budget!

I had my wedding reception at DiNolfo's in Mokena, I chose the venue mainly because it was close to my house and the expressway, but it was probably the best decision I made for the wedding! Everything was incredible, from the staff to the decor and of course the food! My family LOVED the food! The staff is so friendly and helpful (and incredibly patient with an anxious bride as myself)! I spend many hours with them, asking numerous questions, they were always courteous and offered assistance in any way possible. I also saw the owner and staff throughout the reception, checking to make sure that everything was perfect.

This banquet hall was great. We went in one Saturday night and the head lady was able to leave the weddings that were going on to meet with us and everything ran so smoothly without her in those rooms. They were able to get back to me quickly when I had questions. Everything was set up how I wanted it to be. Flexibility wise you can have kids plates, vegetarian plates made up as well as any set up you want and they will set up everything for you! Highly recommend!
