Great venue!

We had a wonderful time at Bella Union. When I toured the venue the manager was very accommodating and made me feel at ease since it was my first time hosting such event. It was easy to decorate and make the area perfect for the event. Street parking was easy since it was the weekend. We all had a wonderful time.

Wonderful Team + Beautiful Space

We had our wedding welcome event here for 120 people. The rooftop was the perfect setting to welcome our guests to the city with stunning views of the Empire State Building. The team at Bella union were so helpful and ensured everything went smoothly on the night. The space was beautiful, the food was wonderful and our guests couldn't get over how perfect it all was. I can't recommend Bella Union enough.

Awesome engagement brunch!

Had an amazing engagement party during the day here. Service was excellent as was the food. The place has a lot of natural sunlight which added to the experience.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
