Warning to all those who decide to book their events at Fiesta Hall. Please be careful I hosted my daughters event in August for her sweet 15 and everything looked very nice. until it came to the food. when the food came out everybody was complaining that it was too salty and even the owner Blanka Nieto and their own staff said yes it was very salty. as a result my aunt had to go to the hospital because of the salt on the food. I address it to the owner of the hall and they said they were going to go ahead and reimburse me for part of the food in monthly installments. well when it came time for the final payment they decided to tell me to kiss my thumb because they didn't have the money to pay me that month for the fact that their hall wasn't making enough and that they were going to pay me in January when they felt like it. I was very upset but I wasn't going to let it ruin my holiday. 2: One of my guest had to leave because she was in a wheelchair and they had no handicap ability for her wheelchair to fit in the bathrooms. I was embarrassed and brought it to the owners attention and once again Blanka Nieto said I'm so sorry there's nothing we can do about this. 3: they have their own valet stuff mind you they charge to park your car who is attending the event. well our guest decide to go ahead and valet there car and as of the results of that they had there sunglasses stolen once again we brought it to @Blanka Nieto attention and her staff and they said yes they had problems with this gentleman before. Told my guess they were going to go ahead and reimburse him and me. here we are in January they won't answer his phone calls or ours and still haven't reimbursed him for his sunglasses after she did ask for receipt on how much the sunglasses were in since he just bought them for his wife he still had that and provided that information to. Here we are in January and they still haven't given us pictures of my daughter Sweet 15 . Try calling their photographer 5th Avenue Productions Photo & Video who is on their package and asked him for our pictures and still we haven't had any luck no pictures no nothing of my daughter party. so we have emailed them call them and nobody will answer calls or our emails so unprofessional and so rude please if you go ahead and book at this place be very careful because there are very unprofessional.. read more

I attended a celebration for life event today and parking was a major problem. The inside was nice as I have been to other events in the past. Improvement on parking would be great as well as more curb appeal on the outside. read more

We just had our daughter's Quinceanera at Fiesta Hall this past Saturday 3/7/15. Everything came out excellent and on point! We chose do a package with Fiesta Hall that included the hall rental fully decorated with table linens, chair covers w/sash, uplighting, etc., sit down dinner for up to 150 people (we went over the 150, so we paid for the extra plates), open bar including alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, hors d' oeuvres, the dj, and photographer & videographer. The hall was absolutely gorgeous when we walked in! The fresh flower centerpieces were exactly what we asked for, beautiful! The food was delicious (we chose the chicken poblano, which I highly recommend) and served hot (which is always a concern when hosting a sit down dinner). The waiters and waitresses were very courteous and professional, and took care of our guests throughout the entire party. The DJ did an excellent job of playing a variety of music that everyone could dance to. Our photographer (5th Avenue Productions) were great as well! They arrived to our house to take pictures of us and our daughter, and then we went to Centennial Park in Coronado to take additional pictures before the ceremony. They continued with pictures and video throughout the ceremony and reception. We can't wait to see our pictures and video in a few weeks, and we will give them a review as well. All of our guests were giving us compliments on everything throughout the entire night! The only slightly negative thing I can say about Fiesta Hall is the parking lot. Its on the smaller side, but we honestly only had 1 guest mention they had a hard time finding parking (there is parking along the street). Other than that, we cannot say enough about Fiesta Hall, Blanca and her staff! They gave us more than we expected and everything went so smoothly! It was perfect! We highly recommend Fiesta Hall, and we will gladly refer this Venue to anyone we know! Our most sincere thanks to Blanca for helping to make our daughter's Quinceanera the best we could ask for! And by the way, in response to a previous review that stated there were no handicapped bathrooms that would accommodate a wheelchair....There was a larger handicap stall in one of the bathrooms that had rails, and my 90 year old grandmother who uses a walker (the bigger ones that have the seat), used it just fine. It was the same as any handicap bathroom stall you would find in a restaurant or anywhere else! ~Francisco and Danielle Corona read more

In response to patty, she has life a little twisted. First, do you think a venue can operate without handicapped bathrooms? Is she dumb or what? Yes she's dumb. I'm sorry this lady, or whatever you want to call her is not only ignorant, but very ill. Second, if you know fiesta hall or has been to an event there, knows that the valet parking is strictly controlled by the other businesses surrounded by fiesta hall. They have no relation with them and they have no control of what other businesses do. Third, in regards to the salty food, how can someone end up in the hospital after eating a portion of the plate due to saltiness. If it was salty and the lady found it salty you would think she would not eat it RT? Or is the lady that dumb eat herself into a hospital. Lastly, out of generosity, after threatening the owner blanca into a lawsuit, blanca decided to give her 2k in payments. She originally wanted 5k back. REALLY? I would of told her to pound sand. So today she received the last 500 of the final 2k and decides to post this not only here, but 3 facebook accts, south bay stuff for sale, and God knows where else. This lady clearly likes to live off of people's money. KARMA is a bitch miss whatever you are. Someone needs to stick up for this business! read more

Not the greatest of neighborhood nor the best run banquet hall. They packed so many poeple in there my cousin's quincenera. The tables were put so closely to one another. No room to walk whatsoever. Food was average at best but it was nicely decorated. read more

Run, you will be glad you did. They are a great help when it comes to not having to worry about the things that come in the package and they are nice people but that peace of mind comes in high price. Compared to other package halls in the south bay they are the priciest. They will try to charge you every penny they can get out of you; including the parking from the smog place next door because they only have parking for about 25 cars for a hall that sits 300 people. They hire a security just for show, because they don't check your guests invitation and let everyone that shows up and then they charge you extra for plates. Be cautious because they will charge extra plates and not end up serving them to your guests. Very beautiful set up, but they use and reuse the same supplies. Go get more for your money. read more

I recently had my wedding there and i am very happy with the service. The hall is huge and they decorate beautifully. I also got the package that everything is included,..and everything went perfect....EXCEPT THE 5TH AVE PHOTOGRAPHER. DO NOT CHOOSE HIM. HE IS VERY UNPROFESSIONAL,IT TOOK HIM MONTHS TO GIVE ME MY PHOTOS....AND THEY EVEN MESSED UP ON OUR VIDEO. TILL THIS DAY HE HAS NOT EVEN GIVEN ME MY COMPLETE PACKAGE. HE NEVER RETURNS ANY CALLS AND HE DOES NOT CARE AT ALL. read more

I prepared for so many years to have my daughters 15. Of course you look for the best. Only having one daughter. It took me 2 years to pay off the complete package that BLANCA offered. In my two years I heard a couple of bad comments so my husband and I spoke to her about it. A month prior to my event we change photographer because we were told that it's been over two years and they still had not received their picture. We got credit for the photographer in exchange for more dinner plates. My dream day had arrived. I had spent over $800.00 in hall decorations. We were told by her to leave it in the lobby and that they would set up the following day. The day of our event June 25 , 2016. My husband and I show up a couple of hours before just to make sure everything was put up. What happened then was just the beginning of our worst nightmare. Staff were only given orders to place linen on the tables. I was in shock. I asked " Where's all my decorations ? " I brought in about 15 boxes all label with their containment. I went in to the back. Opening every door to find my belongings. Knowing now I had less 1 hour before my guest would start arriving. As I opened one of their closet doors I found that some of my boxes were just thrown there. Some were glass items for treat table . My cake was delivered and the box with those decations never to be found. So here I am in our biggest day ever. Only one daughter..prepared for 2 years for this place not to care about your dreams , illusions. We worked so hard . Endless hours. Between myself and some of my guests we finished setting up the tables. What ever decorations that were still in good shape. Most of them broken . Our theme " Hollywood " Only 40 % of my decations were found and still in good shape to put in display. My daughters surprise outfit only half was found. Why we don't know. Everything was all together in one box. We had 1 box label with " Tejas " which were cowboy hats for surprised dance. 2 worth over $ 300. 00 each. Also never to be found. And to top it all off. Days later I found out 2 tables were never waited on. Never given dinner. Skip. I spoke to owner Blanca. I told her everything that we had experience. Her response was." I promise you so many hours of your event .You got it ! " I can't do anything about it " My response was I paid for a service that you offered in your contact. Where Me as a host was supposed to just come in and enjoy myself. Not come in and be put to work. Do your job of setting up and on top of that .my belongings b r oken , missing and having no intentions of ever being put up. Because in your staff words. " I didn't show up earlier to st up myself " MY EXPERIENCE WITH FIESTA HALL. " THE WORST EVER ! " YEAH IT'S WELL SPACED OUT.! FANCY BUT WHEN IT CAME DOWN TO COSTUMER SERVICE .THE WORST. I WOULD NEVER EVER RECOMMEND THIS PLACE. I ONLY HAVE A FEW PICTURES WITH MY DAUGHTER. I NEVER SAT AND RELAX OR ENJOYED MYSELF. JUST STILL TRYING TO COMPREHEND WHAT WE WERE GOING THROUGH . read more

PLEASE DO YOURSELVES A FAVOR AND DO NOT PLAN YOUR EVENT AT THIS PLACE! I cannot express enough how unsatisfied I was for the way my event turned out. For over a year I planned my sister's Quinceañera (which took place on August 13, 2016), hoping that Marisol and Blanca would help me take care of anything that was needed; turns out they were complete LIARS. On the day of the event, there was just mistake after mistake and I spent most of my time outside the hall complaining to Blanca about the issues that were arising but she was no help at all; she DID ZERO to solve anything. The week before the event they offered me extra parking space for an extra charge, which I paid for. During the event, the small parking space they have got full in less than an hour. I then asked Blanca if they could re-direct my guests to where the extra parking was located for which she answered with a; "the guy who owns the parking has not come to pick up the money so he hasn't opened it yet, nor moved the cars out of the lot." I asked her if she had even call him for which she replied "I did but he doesn't pick up and I can't do anything else." Many of my guests left because finding parking was almost impossible, or they had to walk a long distance at night which they obviously found dangerous. There were many other issues as well during the event, such as letting more people in during dinner time, which left many and one of my most important guests with no food at all, only one bathroom was available because the other ones were out of service, bartenders denying certain drinks to my own family members and many other problems. All Blanca did since the beginning was put the blame on other people for her own mistakes AND for the lack of communication between her employees. so..PLEASE DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY AS I DID RENTING THIS HALL! I think you would be more satisfied with a backyard party than with the way these people run this business. The only good people whose job I was very satisfied with were the photographer Jorge and the DJ Juan Carlos, who were nice and courteous to my family and myself all along, so to them a big thank you. I regret the amount of money, effort and time that my family and I put for this event so that at the end we couldn't even fully enjoy it. DO NOT be fooled with their slogan of being "San Diego's Best and Largest Hall" which is so not true, there are better halls out there people, PLEASE, and I can't emphasize enough, DO NOT waste your money nor your time coming here. read more

We just had my nieces quinceañera in June of 2016 at Fiesta Hall. We chose a package with Fiesta Hall that included the hall rental with the most expensive fully decorated package offered. We made all payments on time and they even promised that everything would be set up as planned. I arrived to the hall an hour earlier to make sure things were set up as I wanted and when I walked in to my surprise nothing had been set up for our party. My family gave them specific instructions on how to set up our themed decoration and they lost my cake decorations and broke some of my decorations and showed no remorse. My cake was looked plain and ugly. Some of the waiters even laughed in our faces. Another thing I paid for was 20 extra plates that were never served to my guest and my guest left because they were hungry. I would never recommend this place for anyone's special event. It's not worth it, this place no shame. The security guard at the door was disrespectful to our guest and the owners assistant was rude and acted indifferent to the problems. Be careful not to waste your money on something that does not act or abide the contract. read more

This place is sucks I so regret having my daughters Quince here. The photographer is a piece of garbage, fiesta hall should just get rid of his service, the photo guy will not care about your pictures or video he will tell you that the package you paid for trough fiesta hall is crappy and that is the service he will provide if he doesn't get another 200-400 dollars out of you on top of what you have paid fiesta hall for his service. He will tell you pictures are very memorable so you must paid for more and the video is only about and hour long so if you want 2 hours you must pay me some more money. The only reason why this place is getting 2 stars from me is because one the DJ actually took the time to call me and meet with me to set up the music and actually listen to my concerns and the second star because its actually very nice from the inside and looks elegant for that special night. Oh and the waiters are not professional at all they will keep the extra liquor you bring so they will try there best not to serve it to your guest. Fiesta Hall will not get my business for my other daughters Quince which are next year. read more
