Birthday Party

I live in California, but have family in Chicago. We were planning a first birthday party for our little one in Chicago. Imagine not being there to see the venues or try the catering. However, after some research online, I stumbled upon this beautiful venue. The staff was so helpful and responsive. We would be exchanging emails all day just going over details. They offer so many different menus and are so catering to different diets as well. The day of the event came and the photos just don’t do the space justice. The room is just stunning with the lights and the stained glass. And the staff working the event is just so helpful. The food was absolutely delicious. And the room was set up and available for us to put decor the day before. This place is just stunning. I would recommend it repeatedly.

Jessica Events Manager for Halim was always professional, personal and flexible. She’s very accommodating!

I attended a 75th Anniversary jazz brunch buffet at Halim. The event was held in the beautiful Wisteria room. The food is prepared onsite and it was fresh and delicious! Staff members were all friendly and accommodating. It was a fun and lively celebratory event from beginning to end!
