So... to say I was stressed would be an understatement!! Nikki was calm and never seemed bothered by my random questions. My special day was so amazing PJ (I think) was the lead server she was also amazing!!!! I brought my bins and gave her my vision of how I wanted tables set up and when I walked in I was taken aback by how beautiful it was!!!! THE FOOD omg the good was bomb.com! Everyone raved about how good the food was and boy oh boy was there a lot! We literally had everything- jalapeño poppers, taco bar, hot dog bar, mushroom brochette literally every thing PLUS our main meal I had salmon (cuz ya girl don't eat the land animals aka the meats) they had stake and chicken, both with potato and veggies and it was good!!!

Wow.. just wow!…read more You would never know the capabilities of this place just driving past it on a whim. This place is great for a wedding or Upscale event. I recently visited Avalon Manor for a Wedding/Reception and everything was perfect, except for the fact that there was another event next to ours that was really loud and distracting. I wish they could make the rooms sound proof somehow so other events don't interfere with yours. But other than that, this is a great place for a Wedding,Reception, Meeting and whatever else you could think up! Check it out for your next event.

My friend hosted her wedding here recently. I can't speak to her experience during the planning…read moreprocess but I was really surprised when we showed up for the rehearsal and to start getting ready the day of the wedding. Basically they unlocked the door and we never saw them again until the dinner started. The bar opened about 15 minutes late into the 1 hour cocktail hour and I didn't even know who to check in with or where to find them to figure out what was going on. Luckily my friend was super busy taking pictures so she didn't really notice. I did enjoy the food. There was a pretty good variety of appetizers and entrees. The champagne was delicious! My friend and I both took a picture of the bottle so we could remember it later. They also set up a little coffee bar with flavored syrups by the dessert table which was a big hit.

Though quite a trek from Chicago's north 'burbs, it's worth battling the traffic. The modern and…read moreattractive Center for Visual and Performing Arts enjoys a bucolic setting in Bieker Woods Park. In addition to an intimate 410-seat thrust stage theater and an art gallery, this facility has a pair of elegant dining rooms for banquets and special events, and also a gift shop featuring handcrafted items. We were participants in a 'group package' which included a hot multi-course lunch followed by a matinee performance of "Ghost." The meal, consisting of lemon rice soup, a choice of Chicken Tetrazzini or Beef Stroganoff, and chocolate cake, exceeded our expectations. Though basic, this 'comfort food' was yummy, attractively plated, and served at just the right temperature. They were a bit parsimonious with the rolls and a basket of crackers (the latter was whisked away as soon as we finished the soup), but otherwise the portions were ample and the servers were genial and attentive. Afterwards, we had time to explore the gift shop and art gallery. The restrooms are immaculate. The theater has comfortable seating with generous legroom and excellent sightlines. Although the scenery and props for "Ghost" were minimal, the performance was so absorbing that we soon became too engrossed to notice the bare-bones setting. We also enjoyed chatting with General Manager Richard, who likes to mingle with the guests. If only the staffs at other fine arts venues were as personable and informative. All in all, it was a perfect day.

Recently (June 28th 2026) I attended the Odyssey for Sunday Brunch to celebrate an 80th birthday…read more Much to my surprise the Brunch was held downstairs, and not in the usual banquet area. There was no prior warning regarding the need to walk down a lot of stairs for anyone where this would present a challenge. After making it down the stairs, the first impression of the banquet room was not appealing! The entrance to the venue where I'm accustomed to the brunch being held is very elegant and classy. The room appeared as an after thought as I was told by a worker that they were having an event upstairs in the usual room where the brunch is held. We were seated quickly, which was the only positive. We never had a server greet our table and was never offered champagne, which is customary. The glasses remained empty. Empty plates were left to pile up on our table and we had to flag someone to clear them. The array of food was extremely limited, cold, and in some cases dry and overcooked. The person at the omelet station had a hard time keeping up with the demand of people waiting as she had no help. In the past it's usually been at least two people cooking omelets. The food and venue have great potential and ive always enjoyed my experience, but the lack of attentiveness and poor organization severely impacted our 80th birthday celebration! We definitely did not receive the level of service expected and previously received at this price point. in addition, the 20% pre added service charge was not earned, which by the way was the only time the server appeared, which was to present the check!

We used this location for our wedding reception and while I have more good than bad to say about…read morethis venue I feel the need to point out the things that I did not like. 1) We were not told about the $150 security fee until the month before our wedding. 2) They did not begin serving dinner quick enough. 3) They served our cake from the back before we could cut it in front of our guest. (Very upset about this.) 4) They rushed us out at the end of the night even though we were on target to be out by our scheduled time. 5) We were not given a food tasting as we were told that we would when we initially met to go over our expectations and pricing. (Luckily for us we had family who tried the food before and the food that we picked was good.) Overall, we had a good night, but the professionalism could certainly have been better leading up to our day.

They were thorough on the diagram set up, making sure everything was set to my liking :) The food was perfect- people are still asking about the filet from the Gourmet Family Style dinner. They coordinated with our flower vendor and DJ for set up, so we literally did not have to lift a finger. AMAZING! The whole team was involved from ceremony to reception, and it couldn't have been any better! Thank you, Gaelic Park! xo, Colleen & Mondo

The food, tables, chairs, bar and bathrooms were all impeccable and functioned beautifully with a big crowd. I have attended many weddings in similar venues but this topped them all. Plus, it was a hot summer night with close to 300 people and the A/C was superb. Great place for a great event.

When I waked into the banquet hall, I was expecting something dark and subdued. Low and behold, the lobby area and banquet room was light, spacious and elegantly decorated. The food served at the luncheon was a nice chicken breast with a lovely sauce and fresh vegetable on the side. The dish was nicely seasoned, the chicken breast was tender and juicy. I was lucky enough to sit at the table with the Maribel the Banquet Manager. She was so nice and accommodating. Next time I am considering an event, they will be my place to host.

Salvatorian Hall is a hidden gem that I would have never discovered if I hadn't been a hostess at…read moremy mom's class reunion. It's the kind of place you might overlook if you're not aware of what it is. The grounds are well-maintained, and you can constantly see the staff working hard to keep everything looking pristine. The hall itself is spacious, featuring a stage, a kitchen for cooking, a bar area, and a main hall that can host a variety of events. During this event, they made good use of the DJ on the stage, set up several round tables for dining, and the catering company provided the food, while we utilized the bar area for cold beverages. The food was just okay, but there was plenty of it served buffet-style. My only complaint was that five people were in need of forks. Although everyone spoke English, when I asked for forks, the lady immediately started speaking in another language, which made me feel uncomfortable. She had a thick accent when she explained the situation. Eventually, they both spoke in English. This experience almost made me consider writing a negative review, but I wanted to evaluate my overall experience of the event. The hall has plenty of restrooms, and they are kept clean as well. Overall, although the space is a bit older, it is very well maintained and seems perfect for hosting events.
