My office held a corporate event here and everything went very smoothly. Out of the three dinners I planned, Francesca's was by far the best to work with and very informative from the beginning. The food and service were excellent and all at a very affordable price too!

Great food, excellent service and attention to detail. We are so grateful for such a beautiful venue right in our valley. We were all very pleased with Francesca and her staff who assisted us. They made our bridal shower a great success!

Francesca's was amazing. We loved it, and have recommended it to our engaged friends already. The food was amazing and so was the service. Francesca was so easy to deal with. The day turned out better than we have imagined!

I would absolutely recommend this facility for any type of party or get together (from weddings to reunions, proms, etc...). Francesca and her staff are curteous, professional, and extremely accommodating. Francesca went above and beyond. The food was fantastic and we received many compliments from everyone (even the pickiest eaters of the guests). The presentation was flawless and beautiful! Francesca was also very approachable and organized. She did an amazing job and I will always be thankful! Having her was as good as having a wedding planner. The price was also extremely reasonable for the venue and food. Everything was absolutely perfect! Thank you again to all of the staff at Francesca's banquets and catering. :-)

This venue was awesome. All of the guests loved the room and the food. We encountered a few issues the last couple days before the wedding and I was able to call Francesca at night and discuss it with her and she took it with a grain of salt and told me everything would be perfect - and she was right! The staff was very friendly and extrememly accomodating. My daughter's wedding was perfect and Francesca's helped make it so.

WE WERE VERY PLEASED WITH OUR RECEPTION. WE ARE STILL GETTING COMPLIMENTS ON WHAT A GREAT JOB FRANCESCA'S DID. EVERYONE SAYS THE FOOD WAS GREAT. WE HAD OVER 200 PEOPLE AND IT WAS PERFECT SIZE. WE EVEN HAD A BAND AND STILL HAD ROOM FOR DANCING!! GREAT BAR SERVICE, GREAT FOOD. THE PRICE WAS GOOD ALSO. THE "WEDDING PLANNER" WAS VERY HELPFUL. KEPT ME RIGHT ON SCHEDULE WITH EVERYTHING. NO COMPLAINTS HERE!!! I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND FRANCESCAS.
