    The Fresno Convention and Entertainment Center is not very impressive. The facilities appear old and in need of updating. Valdez Hall could really use a facelift. Went there for a family members oath taking and it is in sad shape. Bad venue for having 1300 people take their oath taking. Not nearly enough room for family members to watch. The exhibit halls and Selland Arena are part of the "Entertainment" Center. Those venues are not as bad as Valdez Hall. Saroyan Theater, I have not visited. So, no comment. Hopefully, their facilities will be modernized in the near future. They have a good location in the heart of downtown Fresno. Til then, 2 stars.

    A pretty decent size venue that can seat about 250-300 people. This place is great for conferences,…read morewedding , and other big events. It was my first time here attending a partner luncheon and I think the space provides adequate seating. They also have a projector screen for PowerPoints and videos. In the back of the same area separated by glass is an area where they can serve food to you. There are clean restrooms for guests. Parking is a little interesting, but that's just downtown for you. They have an underground parking area and have staff to guide you where to park. I had beef, salad, and some green beans 7/10 cause the salad was looking a little rough.

Your professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail made the entire event not only stress-free for us, but also truly unforgettable. From the beautiful décor to the seamless coordination and thoughtful touches throughout, everything reflected your talent and dedication. Irene, It was clear that you took the time to understand our vision and brought it to life in a way that exceeded everyone's expectations. We've received so many compliments from our guests and family about how lovely the evening was--and we know that is thanks to your hard work behind the scenes. Your ability to make everything run smoothly while also creating such a warm and joyful atmosphere means the world to us. Thank you again for making our their anniversary a celebration we will cherish forever. Mark Pruett

    Oh man...where do I start. It was an event on 3/14/2026 where it was a special guest performer…read moreKiana ledè. So a couple of friends of ours, my girl and I paid for $300+ for a vip table. The event was from 9pm to 2am. Dress code was supposedly strictly enforced but I guess not for everyone. When we got seated it was really cold. We were on time and doors opened at 9 but we probably didn't get in until 45 minutes after. Our group was maybe 6th from the door. So we got in and the vibe was cool. Our waitress was TRASH. It's like she didn't know what was happening that night. We seen her serving other tables but she didn't get to us till about almost 10:45. A hour later after we were seated and at that it was because we flagged her down. Since we got a vip table it included an option of Cajun fish or Cajun fried chicken. Served with sides sweet potatoes, mac and cheese, corn bread and smoke greens and a bottle of wine. As I said our waitress didn't get to us until 10:45 and only got to us because we flagged her down. Once she came we asked where was our bottle of wine because we seen everyone else was getting served. And she was confused like she didn't know we were supposed to get a bottle of wine. So she leaves and comes back another 15 minutes later with the wine. When she brought back the wine we then noticed other tables were getting food already and we were just getting wine. We then asked for water as well and that took another 10 minutes. But when she brought the water back, it was in little plastic cups but everyone else had water in wine glasses. Our waitress then disappears for maybe another 20 minutes and we had to flag her down. So we then told her we want to order our food. She was not familiar AT ALL with what was included with the VIP table. Then she said all they had was chicken. When we asked about sides she again was unfamiliar with the sides that was advertised on the flyer. So she said let me check smh. She was then gone for another 10-15 minutes and just brought back the chicken plates and NONE of the sides that were included. So we then asked about the sides and she said there were no sides included and we said it was advertised that the dinner included sides. Just the plates of BAKED chicken...not the fried chicken that was advertised. We didn't get our food till almost 1130 and it was a small half chicken. From 1120 to almost 12 they were honoring 20 top influential women in Fresno. So after being in the line at 9pm on the dot, not getting in until 945 and not eating till 1130 Kiana ledè didn't come out till 12 midnight. She sings a song and a half and then started taking pictures. We had a better time listening to the dj play music than we did with the lack luster performance. After her 1 and a half songs we decided to just leave. So long story short this even was EXTREMELY unorganized, service was terrible, food that was advertised was not provided and 3 hours after the event started was when Kiana ledè came out just to perform 1 and a half songs. I will NEVER go there again. Adrien and mysti Harris...the owners NEED to do better.

    I went to Rosé for the first time, and the experience was extremely unprofessional. We were told…read morethe owner himself was coming to put us out after one of his bottle girls claimed to have an issue with my daughter -- even though my daughter had no interaction with her and walked past her multiple times without incident. When we asked to speak with the owner directly, we were given an Instagram page and told he's very responsive. He replied to the first message, then never responded again -- especially after we asked for a refund, which I thought was more than fair given the situation. We were actually planning to host a party at this venue in September, but after how this was handled, we will never return. The unprofessionalism from both the owner and that bottle girl was disappointing, and honestly, after reading other reviews, it all makes sense now. It's really giving the owner is sleeping with the bottle girl, because any professional establishment would've taken her off the floor if she "had a problem" with a guest -- especially a one-sided one. Shoutout to security guard Andre for being the only person who handled things respectfully and professionally. Thank you, Andre.

Plenty of parking spots. It Very convenient. We walk to the venue. My friend's company Christmas party at this place. I got to see it from the inside. They had tables already set up. I believe whoever rents the venue is in charge of arranging everything. The tables and the chairs They also had a Christmas Background to take pictures. The theme was casino night so They had some casino tables already there. Since we were the first ones to get there we got the chance to seat front seat to al see everything. They didn't have any music so no dancing. I thought I was going to be able to dust the mites out but no. No chance. lol! It finished early. It was nice getting out of the routine and enjoy some time with my friend. So the venue it's small you can book it for a birthday party, baby shower party, or any ovation. Even for a divorce party. I liked it. I don't know the prices but I would like to know. It is located in downtown Fresno. It was a very nice night.
