Beautiful decor, decorated photo walls, best tasting cake and a private room with bathroom we used to change and have our hair & makeup done on site. Ruben is so easygoing and down to earth that he makes you feel at home. His sister Sylvia was very attentive to all the decorations and involved us in decisions and what we wanted. I recommend La Gala by personal experience.

I appreciate all the text and phone calls and meet ups. I love the "we can do anything attitude"!! It was a beautiful event and I thank you! Most importantly my daughter was happy! Theme was enchanted forest, it was lit up green and the vintage chairs gave it a special touch.

Came here on Friday night to learn some new dance moves!…read more It started at 8pm, and you do not need your own partner to come. They all rotate in circle so everyone gets to dance with everybody. If you download the app with the QR code they have in the front, it's free to get in. I believe this was 18+ up for the dance class. There was one instructor and he danced with you in the circle too. Ladies learned the dance first then it was the boys. Then we all come together and danced. It looked like we weren't the only first timers here. We've learned Poka and barn yard dance. Poka was a lot of turning and that just made me dizzy. Barn yard was so much more fun, it was easy to follow. The drinks were good and we had a good time!

My first experience here was on a Saturday night and I honestly wasn't sure what to expect. We…read morebrought a group of friends as two of them aren't from Texas and had never two-stepped before. The venue itself was pretty crowded as expected, but the dance floor was a lot less crowded than the areas around it. That is, until line dancing songs came on! They played a good mixture of country music, hip hop music and a random variety of line dance songs (Boot Scoot Boogie, Cupid Shuffle, The Wobble, etc). The music mix was seriously SO HOUSTON that it made the night extra fun! Also, we found out that they do FREE two-stepping lessons at 8pm on Friday nights, so we will definitely be returning with our group of friends for that. Tip: if you plan to go out on the dance floor, you're not allowed to bring your drink out there. Be sure to leave it with a friend or finish it because they're pretty serious about not having drinks out there.

It was nicely decorated for the event. The place is huge. To give you an idea, it was set up for 90 guests - 9 roundups, 10 chairs each. A photo booth, serving area, room for a DJ, a dance area big enough for everyone to utilize at once, plus the stage which I would guess to be 10'x15'. Plenty of space to move around. Staff members were courteous. Food was wonderful. We had a great time!

If you have a vision for something or a desire for something to happen, this is a great place. She informed me they are in the process of retiling the floor, and bathrooms can stand updating but for the overall price, decoration, and space, this was a great choice. Owner even donated centerpieces as a gift to hubby and I, along with other items she made available for usage. I was truly amazed by the use of the space, (which I included catering, dj, and a photographer in), and how beautiful everything turned out. There was no lottering, littering, or dangerous circumstances in nor near the hall, which makes it a comfortable rental place. It is also required that security be present for all night time events, which is comforting. Hubby was very surprised and happy with the set up and party and for that it was all well worth it. Thanks Miranda!

Made a visit with a friend for Houston Restaurant Week (HRW) $20 lunch…read more Entered a fairly quiet dining room with 3 other tables, and was greeted immediately by a friendly waiter. I opted for the charcuterie board and the salmon. Presentation was a beautiful work of art for both plates. Charcuterie board had a decent variation of meats and also had a sort of super rich salmon pate (initially I thought it was cheese). As far as the entree goes, I felt as if I had a plate of salmon alongside a bunch of random decorative vegetables. Presentation was very nice, portion was fairly large, just more so random to me. Taste was ok. We didn't opt for the $5 supplemental dessert, however we were given 3 delightful complimentary coconut and banana white chocolate truffles upon receiving the check. I'm thankful for opportunities like HRW to give me a chance to try places that I normally wouldn't go to. Not sure if I'd return though.

Le Bistro is a French restaurant located inside the Culinary Institute Le Notre. What initially…read morestarted off as a bad experience made a dramatic reversal. I tried to stop by on a Friday evening for dinner. Le Bistro is located on the north side of town, is not in the best area, so it was a bit of a drive. Once we arrived, we were asked if we had a reservation. We did not. They were unwilling to accommodate us as they require reservations. We had to leave and dine elsewhere. For the inconvenience, we were offered a free glass of wine on our next visit. Le Bistro is a small restaurant so I get it. But, when we visited the next week, the restaurant wasn't full. That's not to say it wasn't when we tried. Either we were unlucky or they use an antiquated system without the flexibility that diners expect in this day and age. Rant over. Fast forward to the following Friday and we stopped by for Houston Restaurants Week. They start you off with some warm bread, fresh out of the oven, with butter. A lot of it too. We demolished all of it. For my appetizer, I had the scallops which are served with risotto. Scallops are easy to mess up but they cooked them just right. Soft in the middle with a nice crispy sear on top. The risotto complimented the scallops nicely. For my entree, I had the waygu strip which is served with potato sticks (the fancy kind) and green beans. For all the steak eaters out there, you know that waygu is an expensive cut of meat. I was expecting a small portion as a result. It was not. 10 ounces which was a lot more than I expected. This dish alone is probably worth more than the $45 you pay for three dishes during HRW. This was my first time having waygu and it was as advertised. A little fatty on the outside but flavorful, chewy, and buttery when you take off the fatty ends. An excellent cut of steak that everyone should try at least once! The sides were also good. For my dessert, they were out of two out of three of the desserts listed but offered us some alternatives. I went with an apricot flan which was alright. Throughout the meal, we had a bottle of red wine which was also great. Eating at a culinary institute is an experience in itself. You're going to receive excellent service. The waiters and waitresses are students so they have an incentive to provide great service. Not only are they getting a tip but they're being graded. At the end of the meal, they give you a card to rate your experience and sign up for any culinary classes that you're interested in. Not only do they have several classes available, but you can also get a diploma as well as an associates or bachelors if you're trying to become a master chef. The chefs are from France so you're learning from the best. The presentation of the food should also be noted. The food looks like art. Which is what you would expect at a fancy French restaurant. We had a 5-star experience. The service was friendly and efficient. Just make sure to make a reservation.

With 100 people, it was hot. I tried to cool the space by propping the door. Communication with the owner was seamless and mostly via email, and the venue was set up exactly as requested. The suite was perfect it was decorated nicely and spacious. The on suite bathroom was convenient for both the kitchen staff and those using the suite. Parking lot only has 25 spots. There is street parking available, but don't park in front of the houses. The homeowners will complain. The church next door is open for parking as well. Outside of cooling issues and parking and location, it was the perfect space to host a baby shower.
