So Accommodating & Best Service!

After much searching, we chose to have our rehearsal dinner here in the back room. Our contact was so responsive and answered all of our questions timely. Our rehearsal dinner was incredible - everyone had a great time. Such an amazing value for the service and experience we had. They surpassed all our of expectations and were seriously so accommodating - everyone there went above and beyond! We had mini champagne bottles as favors for our guests and some decorations that we wanted to have set out. They put everything out for us and it looked soo nice! The servers and bartenders were the best! They were so sweet to us and even wrote us a card and gifted my husband and I a bottle of wine as a wedding gift!! Would recommend Ranalli's to anyone looking for an incredible experience. Best service and the most amazing food and drinks!

Backroom at Ranalli's - Great place for Rehearsal Dinner!

This review is long overdue but had my Rehearsal Dinner in backroom at Ranalli's last year. Had about 50 people, perfect place to hold casual more laid-back event to kick-off a wedding weekend. Pricing is fantastic and food was great. Appetizers - Chicken Tenders and calamari, salads and a variety of pizza's - open bar - everything was great. All of the kids and teenagers were especially fond of the dessert, the baked skillet Chocolate cookies, I think they ate about 5 each, so good. The Staff were on top of things and kept food coming, even for late arrivals. Additionally, I had a lot of older and elderly folks attending and Ranalli's left in tables so these folks could sit and were happy to serve them drinks and food at their tables not high-tops. If you have speeches to make, no problem - they provided mics for us to use. I highly recommend this venue - book it, you won't regret it!

Engagement party

My fiancé put together a gathering after our proposal in the back room of Ranallis. Everyone involved in assisting with the party was very professional, friendly, and made the night very easy for us to sit back and enjoy friends and family. They allowed for personal decor which was nice for my family to be able to set all of that up, made it very personal. I will definitely be using the spot again!!
