Assyrian Style Engagement Party Review

Manzo’s Banquets and their whole team helped make my engagement party a dream come true! The whole staff was friendly, helpful, and considerate throughout the entire process. I also have to specifically shout out Mimi who went above and beyond to make sure us and our guests were well taken care of and comfortable. She was so kind, attentive, and thoughtful it felt like I was working with family. Everyone who attended our party raved about the food and how beautiful everything looked. Manzo’s helped make this process very smooth for me and I am incredibly thankful for everything they did throughout my party planning process. The night turned out better than I could have imagined even with the unavoidable hiccups along the way and I know a huge reason for that is the amazing staff at Manzo’s! The team helped make the entire event worth every penny and everyone enjoyed the night so much! Our expectations were exceeded!

Friendly & easy process


We had our wedding (ceremony + reception) at Manzo’s on 1/18/26. From the initial tour to the day of & everything in between, the entire process was smooth. Diana was our main contact at the venue; she was very kind and easy to work with. The pricing is fair, the location is accessible, and the food was fantastic. On our wedding day, Diana wasn’t able to be there but she fully communicated who would be there to support us. Everything was a breeze, the staff was wonderful & she also did a follow up call to check in and see how everything went. Thank you!!

Best venue ever!!!

Where do I even begin? Manzo’s is incredible. I had my wedding reception here and I cannot thank them enough for how easy they made this process. From the initial contract to the moving of my wedding date, to picking out linens and food. Everything was SO easy. They’re incredibly economical too. Their prices are the best I have seen around. Everything was so magical and so easy. I got so many compliments about the food. The food honestly has to be the best food I have ever had a banquet in my life. I still dream about the pasta. 10/10. If you’re looking to have any party, BOOK HERE! I will forever use Manzo’s not only for my events but for catering!!! I love them and the office staff are incredible. THANK YOU!!!!

Charming wedding venue!

Manzo’s was an incredible place to host our wedding! We had about 80 guests, and the Gala Room was the perfect fit. It felt cozy, elegant, and full of charm. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how delicious the food was, especially the vodka pasta, which became a clear favorite.

The staff was amazing. Diana in particular went above and beyond to answer all of my and my mom’s questions and even helped us with some of our DIY decorations. The pastries on the sweets table were some of the best we’ve ever had.

Everything ran so smoothly on the night of the wedding thanks to their team’s help with setup and coordination. Even our photographers mentioned how great Manzo’s is for photos because the lighting in the banquet room is beautiful.

We are so happy we chose Manzo’s for our special day and can’t wait to see our professional photos and videos. We would absolutely recommend this venue to anyone looking for a warm, welcoming, and unforgettable wedding experience.

I recommend this place to everyone. Great service, delicious food, decorations, rooms, toilets, everything is perfect.The employees were very nice and everything I asked for was done.The owner of this place is very nice and helpful. This is the place where you will be happy on the most important day of your life ! Thank you so much for all employees!!!!

In my opinion, the sweet table was a bit underwhelming. It didn't have that WOW factor. Everything was delicious, but the presentation needs to be improved for such a large event as a wedding. It's a must-have for a WOW factor.

A Lovely Wedding Brunch

We recently hosted our wedding day after brunch at Manzo's, and it was an absolutely delightful experience! The food was delicious. Our family and friends couldn't stop raving about the delicious spread. The service was exceptional. The staff were incredibly attentive and ensured everything ran smoothly, allowing us to relax and enjoy the moment.

The atmosphere was equally impressive. The venue had a warm and inviting ambiance, creating the perfect setting for our post-wedding celebration.

Manzo's provided us with a memorable and joyous brunch that perfectly capped off our wedding festivities.

Best Experience!

We got married September 7, 2024. We visited a few other venues and Manzos was by far a better choice. Vanessa helped us through the process. She was very patient, profesional and always available for us. The food was delicious and more than what we expected. Their all inclusive package is more than what we expected because we did not have to worry about anything else, they took care of EVERYTHING.
On the day of our event all the staff was prompt on attending our needs particularly our server Jackeline who was very friendly and helpful. Thank you for making our special moment even better.
