The Riverdale Banquet Hall Reviews

Our Galaxy theme wedding dream was brought to life by the team at the Riverdale. Venue was absolutely gorgeous and the lighting venue has really made the theme pop! Lisa, the events manager, was a dream to work with. Highly recommend!

I am so glad I picked this venue for our wedding. There are so many good thing to say, the venue is gorgeous, the staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. The venue is family owned. They offer catering and we had custom drinks made just for our guests. Everything was flexible and tailored to our liking. Out of everything though, I have to say my favorite part was Lisa. I know my wedding would have been nothing without her and the rest of the staff. I am a heavy procrastinator and Lisa was there to go over everything that needed to be done and keep me on track. She even set up the table decor. So if your looking for a venue for any occasion but, especially if you need help with the planning from people that actually care then book this one. I guarantee you won't regret it.

I had my rehearsal dinner here and my wedding. I don’t know where to even begin. From the very beginning Lisa was so super helpful with absolutely everything. She made the wedding planning so much easier, she helped me with everything down to the decorations. She had so many left over and I was able to use them. My guests had such a good time at my wedding too. This venue is absolutely stunning! They did everything they could to customize my wedding to exactly what I wanted. She was even able to get the alcohol my parents requested. I highly highly recommend this venue to anyone.

Absolutely incredible! From the beginning Lisa (and staff) made the Riverdale the place we wanted to get married, she was so warm welcoming! She made the wedding planning process easy! She made our budget for the wedding work (trust me with my husband not all the easy! BUT I married him anyway)! I can not say enough great things about her! The food was out of this world! We showed up the day before the wedding to rehearsal and everything was decorated for us, we did not have to lift a finger, the attention to detail and the way everything turned out was a dream come true! I did not have to worry about anything! Please if you are looking to have your dream wedding pick the Riverdale! You will not regret it! I promise!

We are SO happy that we chose to go with The Riverdale Banquet Hall as our wedding venue!!! They were absolutely incredible and we could not have been happier. Lisa was extremely organized, personable, creative, and helpful. We met multiple times prior to the wedding to plan the big day and she was sure to include and think of every possible detail for that day (a lot of stuff that neither my husband or I would have even thought about if she didn't say something!) Lisa and the entire staff did an excellent job setting up for the wedding and being efficient the entire time. The food was delicious, the decorations looked incredible, service was attentive, and everything was clean and organized. We highly recommend this venue to anyone planning a wedding, having a baby shower, birthday party, or any other event. It was amazing and we are so thankful that we chose this venue. Thank you so much!!!

First of all, the venue is absolutely beautiful! They did an amazing job renovating and decorating the space. Lisa is so great to work with. She met with us several times along the way to make sure that everything was perfect and exactly how we wanted it. I will miss all of my meetings with her! The Anastos family was so flexible and accommodating through all of the changes due to COVID regulations. They have made all of the transitions and regulations as seamless and safe as possible. Also, the venetian table was a big hit. Delicious! I would recommend this venue to anyone. Do yourself a favor and check them out!! :)

I dont even know where to begin! The staff was amazing. Lisa was amazing and helped us through all the planning and she even knew some of the most perfect vendors to use for our cake and flowers. The building has been turned into a beautiful venue after the fire when they where brothers 2. They made us feel so welcomed and special as they surprised us when the whole staff and owner gave me a dozen Rose's after our arrival. Couldn't have asked for a better place to hold our wedding! Bot to mention the food was amazing!

Where do I even begin with this!! First I guess I begin with the amazing Lisa! After many years of being engaged and going to a friends wedding we decided to finally set at date. We picked the date on a Monday morning and by noon that day Lisa was taking us on a tour of the venue. Other locations didn’t call us back for weeks and she had us in hours after we called. I was set on a place that not only wasn’t stuck in the 80’s (the glory days of our town) but also a place that could offer stations for the food. After going over the menu and touring the facility we were 100% sure this was the place. The venue is stunning to say the least! The updated and modern style with an awesome touch of sparkle and glamour! The did an amazing job renovating this place! So the easy part was over we booked and just waited for the day to come! Lisa was so amazing at reaching out to us asking where we were at with things. Scheduling appointments to go over everything and offering to help in a million places that you would not think. She did hand drawn chalk board signs for us, helped put other and set up our memory table and candy bar station. She even offered to put our center pieces together since we just bought bulk flowers!!! I can not state enough how much she went above and beyond! Super easy and super organized! Now let’s get to the big day!! Once everything was set up it was absolutely stunning! They have the modern chairs and a beautiful bridal sweet! And can we talk about the bathrooms?!? I know weird to hit on but they are stunning too!! And lastly but not least the amazing food and staff at the Riverdale!! Jimmy and the whole crew at the Riverdale we’re so amazing!! The food was delicious and I’m so sad I didn’t eat more. We wanted good homestyle food and they delivered! I mean we had a mash potato bar for goodness sakes!! From philly cheese steaks to hamburger sliders to the pasta station it was delicious!! I really can’t say enough about how amazing the whole night was!! Thank you!!!!

We had our wedding at The Riverdale on the 1st of December, everything was truly a fairytale! Lisa, Steve and Jimmy make sure everything went so smoothly and everything went absolutely perfectly! They decorated the venue beautifully beyond my expectations and it truly brought tears to my eyes when I walked into the venue in our wedding day. The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous and has a very ‘grand-like’ feeling, which is exactly what we were looking for in our wedding venue search! Throughout the whole planning process, Lisa was extremely helpful and answered all my questions about every last detail immediately . Lisa went above and beyond all our expectations with her decorating as well as the planning aspect for our wedding. She’s very attentive and personable and truly what made our day even more perfect. She truly puts the bride and groom above everything else and ensures everything would go perfectly! I cannot thank Lisa, Steve and Jimmy enough for making our dream wedding come to life. The food was absolutely delicious and wait staff were very attentive! I highly recommend The Riverdale banquet hall for any and all parties! We will definitely be hosting more events here in the future!

The venue is absolutely beautiful. The attendant was so helpful and kind.- she really went above and beyond. The software they used to organize the wedding was super helpful. I gave it 4 stars because the food seemed a little too bland for my liking, but overall, I would do it over again in a heartbeat!
