This banquet hall has some great features! The dance floor in our room was absolutely beautiful and added a nice touch to the event. There was also plenty of parking, which made it convenient. However, I was disappointed that the music from other events taking place in the building could be heard in our room. It was a bit distracting and took away from the atmosphere of our own celebration. Overall, it's a lovely venue, but better soundproofing would make it a more enjoyable experience for everyone. read more

The chairs in the hall are harder than cement! The cushions are completely worn out, it's like having nothing under your buttock! This needs to be addressed asap. It's to the point of feeling unsafe when sitting. read more

To Management Salcedo Bday Party 10.12.24. we had a family party and your staff member (short caucasian) was so rude throughout the evening. 1. She was cursing at a kid (12 years old) to sit the "f***" down 2. Did not announce last call for the bar at 11:30pm 3. Cut the DJ off at 11:55pm after the bday girl had a last song request "she made the comment I am glad I shut this s*** down" to guests. 4. Had the nerve to argue with guests including a teenager boy 5. The manager did not tell her to stand down or send her away or diffuse the situation 6. She needs to be reprimanded for her racist behavior 7. She was not dressed professionally did not have a name tag or even know what was her role. 8. My niece paid a hefty price and this worker should not get a tip let alone get paid for bad service/customer service. 9. email was sent to Management via Dynasty Banquet 10. All social media should know how bad things were read more

My organization holds an annual luncheon and for the last 9 years, Dynasty Banquets is the best value we've found in the region. The venue is attractive inside with ample parking, great service and delicious food. I can vouch for the Grecian Chicken! The staff has always been very helpful in making our events successful. We'll likely be back for a 10th year! read more

I was invited to a holiday luncheon at Dynasty Banquets and was pleasantly surprised that the venue and food were above average. The venue is conveniently located near the expressway which makes it ideal for those traveling across the miles to share in special occasions. I was assured that there was sufficient parking for this sold out event. However upon arrival the surrounding businesses caused concern. Dynasty shares a parking lot with a restaurant and two motels. Thankfully the area is monitored and safety wasn't a concern. Especially when I couldn't find a parking space in front of the venue and was forced to park in the rear near a couple charter buses. I was grateful once I noticed the rear entryway. I found the interior festive without being gaudy. There were simple holiday decor with special elements spread throughout the space. The food was flavorful and the servers top notch. I enjoyed my first visit & I won't hesitate to attend another event at Dynasty Banquets. read more

Second time at the Dynasty for an event in a year's time, being in the large ballroom each time. Considering the other options you have for a wedding or major event in the area, the Dynasty is a great place to pick. The room is big and has wonderful pink and gold decor throughout. They even have pink napkins already you can use. Round table mostly, with places where a stage can be set up and dance floors. The room can be sectioned off if you need a smaller space. They have drapery that make the place nice, also in pink to match the decor. During my second visit, I experienced the catering of Dynasty, which was OK. The were many servers who never stopped working. They were friendly and dressed nice. The food was always hot and never run out, even when I was sitting at the last table served. Many people came for seconds as well. We in line may have waited for serving items to be replaced / refreshed for a minute or two but it was not long. The food was ok. It was a brunch. Eggs and mashed potatoes had too much margarine in it. But the meats , bacon and sausage, were good and the breakfast potatoes were great. There cakes Amy highlights and I had three pieces! However, the ballroom did have some wear and tear that I seen on my last visit than I saw on the first. Maybe it's my "bride" eyes I have now right now. The chairs that are fabric based needed cleaning. At the first event I attended, they covered the chairs, which I would recommend to any bride having a wedding reception event here. The wood paneling around the room and service doors need to be replanted or sanded/refinished. Other than that, the place is keep up very nicely. If I lived in the Gary/Hammond area and needed to do a wedding in the area, I would choose the Dynasty, food and service was great. I would ask them their plans for fixing the wood doors and paneling prior and get a discount on chair covering. But I would come here again as a guest, for sure. read more

The banquet room was beautiful with nice chandeliers. Was spacious for the sport banquet that was held. Food was better than expected. Was served family style dining: baked chicken not dry a plus, tender beed and the sausage was okay. Staff was friendly and patient. Overall good experience. read more

I had my bridal shower there and HATED IT...WAS WAY TO OVERPRICED for food that was SERIOUSLY LACKING....although I never let my maid of honor know because she graciously paid for everything...I FELT SO BAD because I know she paid $14 a plate for CRAP!! The chicken was FLAVORLESS and DRY...just because you pour a sauce over it does NOT make it juicy! Also the roasted potatoes were NOT completely cooked...the only thing that was good was the kids meal my little cousins had...chicken fingers with fries...lord knows what the charged for THAT! Also...the room was poorly decorated and THERE WAS A HUGE STAIN on the rug!! RIGHT IN THE FRONT! Where people first walk in our room!! I mean if you are charging that much AT LEAST KEEP IT CLEAN!! Or stick a table over the stain OR SOMETHING!! This place takes advantage of the people in Northwest Indiana...BEWARE!! GO ELSEWHERE!! read more

I have NEVER been to bad party here! The decor is always wonderful...obviously varies based upon what you pay, and the food is amazing!! In the summers, the larger banquet room with the murals is unreal because it opens into the pool area...this makes it all so much nicer! Host your party here, because I think it is wonderful, and would be shocked if you didn't agree! read more

Just left here on Easter for brunch and the food was seriously uneatable. It was a banquet style brunch and all the meats were pre-cut in a pan douced in sauces including lamb, ham, beef, and a mystery cut unlike the "Carving station" that they had told me on the phone. I got up from my table and asked the server to observe that I had not eaten nor had my family eaten anything but one bite of this "what they considered food". I spoke to the manager who told me " I was the only one today that disliked the food". She then spoke to another Manager who said to have a seat while she was going to refund my cash. I told her my family was waiting in the car and spent enough time here. She then refunded my money but had shorted me $5.77. I told her what I paid and minutes later returned with my change. There are two lessons that I learned today about Dynasty Banquets. 1. They should rename this place Dy-Nasty! 2. Never eat at a place where the female hostess has a mustache. read more

I attended an awards banquet this week. The room was beautiful; round tables with impeccable linens and glassware. My heart sank when I saw two buffet stations for over 300 guests! Dynasty succeeded in delivering a great meal to all! The green salad was fresh romaine, peeled cucumbers and ripe tomatoes. Other dishes included roasted potatoes, mostaccoli with a meatless sauce, fresh green beans, vegetable stir fry and rice, Greek chicken and fried cod. The chicken was juicy and well seasoned and not at all dry. Servers continuously and quickly restocked the buffet and cleared the dishes from the tables. Vegetarians could enjoy most of the offerings. Best of all? I took home an award! read more

Attended a luncheon on 5/31/2014. The food and service was good. The tables were nicely set, when the food came out it was attractively displayed on the plates -- Chicken Kiev, rice, tossed salad, and small rainbow of vegetables. Rainbow sherbet for dessert. It was clean and well-maintained. There were enough areas that were good for taking pictures; and I like the elegant light fixtures. We wanted to have a decent meal for our attendees, and -- mission accomplished. Thank you, Dynasty Banquets. read more

I HAD THE WORST EXPERIENCE WITH DYNASTY BANQUETS!!!!!!! I had my wedding there, Mary(Sales) promised my husband a Grooms-room or somewhere for him and the groomsmen to change clothes the day of the wedding. Ironically, Mary wasn't there the day of the wedding. As I walked in the managers office, Karla (Sales manager) was eating lunch while on the phone. I didn't know know at the time she was on the phone w/ Mary. At rehearsal two days prior, Mary and I discussed a balance that was due and the communication wasn't clear. Karla was VERY nasty and rude and ordered me to pay the balance in full that day or else. I'm in FEAR, it's my WEDDING DAY and you aren't giving me any options. I called my sister who had to come from the other side of town. Karla was RUDE and NASTY to my husband who asked for the key to the honeymoon suite (that was FREE to us for booking) to change into his tux. Karla made it VERY clear that he wasn't getting a key to the room until the balance was paid. Again, its our WEDDING day and the ceremony was due to begin in less than an hour AND she was aware that the balance was in route to the banquet hall. Karla suggested to my husband that he can change his clothes in the mens BATHROOM, Really?? The woman who ran the banquet hall staff that day was just as rude and mean as Karla. She walked up to me DURING my wedding and showed me a receipt and said "PAY THIS BEFORE THE NIGHTS OVER" I had no idea what she was speaking of. I didn't have extra guest, the chairs that wasn't covered came from people who didn't want to sit on the grooms side of the room and took it upon themselves to get the chairs. The door was open and the chairs were exposed and that's why they took them. I was FORCED to pay an extra $177.00 just to keep the night moving smoothly. The banquet hall NEVER returned my toasting wedding glasses and to top it all off, when we got into the honeymoon suite, the toilet didn't FLUSH! read more
