Super shocked Orlando's has so little views on Yelp! Let's get those up!…read more The reason for my visit was that they were hosting a free tasting of select items on their menu. According to Mr. Orlando himself, they (now) offer a free tasting 3 times a year. So if you're planning an event, make sure to add them on your list. This was helpful for my fiancé and I as we have contracted with them for our wedding. Moving on, the location itself is located right off 55 which makes it convenient for traveling. All of the sales representatives were present and assisting with check-in, serving, and connecting with attendees. Vendors were also available (formal wear, travel, photo and DJ, ice cream). The tasting was more than I imagined. Typically when you think of a "tasting" you think of being served a small sample size. Instead, they legit offered a signature appetizer and had a self serving buffet complete with several items from both of their classic and deluxe menus. They also offered two new chef specials and a slice of cake from Wedding Wonderland cake shops. Wonderful experience Orlando's!

Two of us went to their inaugural Thanksgiving buffet this year without knowing much about…read moreOrlando's and we were quite pleased! It's basically a big banquet hall with tables to seat parties as small as ours to families of 12 or more and everything in between. As I said, it was buffet style with generous servings of all the traditional sides plus salad, macaroni and cheese, Brussels sprouts, and a LOT of dessert options (the pecan pie was the stand out winner). There was a carving station with turkey, ham, and roast beef. The staff was incredibly organized and kept the food fresh and the serving dishes full. It never felt too crowded or less than festive. They had a moment where a chef with a large chopping knife chased a turkey (person in an inflatable turkey costume) around the room for entertainment. A family sitting near us even brought their own games to play after they were done eating; they must have known they could stay and hang out due to the timed seatings. We are already considering returning for Mother's Day brunch.

RNB &Ice Skating event!…read more This event came around again and i definitely wanted to try it again. This ice center is well lit, spacious and clean. The area of this event is in the back area in its own separate section, restrooms included. A ceiling covering is blocking the outside air but still gives you the outdoor experience with fire pit vibes. FYI it's COLD but fire lol. You have the option to skate or just vibe. RNB music , one bar, one concession, different vendors selling skull caps, jewelry, hats, pickles. Food choices were typical concession and bar hot cocoa, beer, cocktails. Lines were long but understandable. Chill vibe, nice safe event.

I had a few ideas of which food I wanted based on their catering menu, but Dan made some great suggestions that I had not thought of. Additionally, he covered all the details that our event venue didn't even mention to me. For example, he asked how I would be playing music and I had no idea. He told me the options provided by the venue and recommended types of music that would be good for this type of event. Note that the venue I used was not associated with his catering company - he was just being nice and helpful. He was also very easy to get in contact with. I have definitely worked with other event-related services that are hard to reach and it is a nightmare, so consider this important aspect if you need your event to go well! The planning aspect of it all went so smoothly and I could not have done it without his help. The evening of the event, caterers were already hard at work by the time I got there. They had set everything up - buffet tables, tablecloths throughout venue, bar with bartender, etc... All I had to do was connect my phone to the Bluetooth for music and start greeting guests when they came in. They seriously made it so easy and I feel like that isn't even their job. Each staff member was friendly and helpful. I could ask them anything and they'd gladly help me find the answer. Not only that, but the FOOD WAS DELICIOUS!!! I wish I had taken pictures but I was too busy with hosting. Everyone I talked to at the event raved about the food choices. We had the following items in the buffet: -Salmon with Ginger Soy Glaze -Stuffed Chicken Breast (Herb Cheese with Balsamic Drizzle) -Broccoli Pancotto -Vegan Summer Pasta -Vegan House Salad -Fresh Breads with Butter -Dessert: Cake Shots -Drinks: Soda, Water, Beer, and Wine In summary, I would strongly recommend Hendri's for anyone who needs a catering service! They fulfill all of the top requirements for an important event, in my opinion - smooth planning process, excellent service before and during event, and delicious food.

20th Street Studios is one of those rare creative spaces in St. Louis that immediately makes you…read morewant to book something just to have an excuse to be inside it. Located at 503 N 20th Street, this thoughtfully designed studio completely transforms into a bright, modern, multi-use creative hub. From the moment you walk in, it feels intentional--clean lines, natural light everywhere, and a layout that feels curated specifically for photographers, content creators, and small events that need a polished but flexible backdrop. What stands out most is how versatile the space is. Between the all-white studio, the lifestyle set, and the various styled rooms, it really functions as multiple studios under one roof. Whether you are shooting brand content, hosting a pop-up, planning a small gathering, or building out a full creative production day, it adapts seamlessly without ever feeling repetitive or overdone. Natural light is a major highlight here, especially with the large windows and open layouts that make even simple setups look elevated. It is the kind of place where you can show up with a vision and leave with content that feels magazine-ready without having to overthink the environment. It also has that quiet "creative community" energy--very much built for entrepreneurs, photographers, and small businesses who want a space that feels professional but still inspiring rather than sterile.

Our menu was 2 kinds of ribs, baked beans, slaw, vegetables, and bread that was served in a buffet line for 100 people hot, tasty, properly cooked and delicious. I did not want to embarass myself by taking seconds but the food was good enough to take thirds. Our event planning classmate ended up taking a HUGH amount of leftovers which went to several church luncheons the next dahy. The wait staff was incredibly helpful but inobtrusive. Our reunion was great for all who attended and we never felt intruded by center staff. A GREAT PLACE FOR A REUNION

The only other other thing on the plate was fruit cocktail. I have never gone to a luncheon at a banquet hall and been served fruit that was not fresh. It definitely seemed as if we were eating a school lunch. The soup was good, but very typical. The only thing that was nice was the venue. Regardless of the price of the event, I would hope that the Julia's staff would insist that whatever they serve was delicious and of good quality. The staff is nice, but not amazing. The lunch at Panera that is half sandwich/half soup and comes with an apple (fresh fruit) is about 7-8$ and presents and tastes significantly better. I would only use this venue again if I was merely renting the space. Outside catering would be a must! Definitely will not recommend, sadly.
