The bridal suite was my favorite part. We had a larger wedding party. We were all able to hang out there all day for hair and make up and there was plenty of space for all of us.

I am updating my review because I had my wedding here in November and I cannot believe how smoothly…read moreit went. I did not have to worry about a thing all night. Chuck and Maria were so wonderful to me, as were the rest of the staff at Valentino's. Professionalism seems to be the utmost importance to them. The food, ugh! We chose to have family style, which I do not regret. We ordered some typical Utica foods (riggies, greens), while also having some options for staple items, like a wonderful pork loin roast. There was not one thing that tasted bad. We opted for the open bar and had no problems with this all evening. Everything was so clean and tidy. I am so happy with how beautiful our photos turned out at Valentino's. Maria was always willing to meet with me. I probably came down the Valentino's 4 or 5 different times before the wedding to make sure everything was correct! Even a few days before the wedding when our rental company had some issues with getting flooded, Maria and her staff ironed and tied every bow on the chairs. I couldn't believe how much they helped us! I have nothing but positive things to say about Valentino's, but I think my pictures speak for themselves. Book your reception with them! You will not regret it.

The waitress never asked about our meals. She did ask if she could box up our left overs none of us took anything home. Desert was pineapple upside-down cake , the cherry was the best part of it. We all felt the best part of the meal was the wine. Also not accessible for anyone over 50. And tge stairwell smelt terrible.

Great way to grab a glass at your leisure or taste something new for a low as even 99 cents! I see myself being a regular here!

And the turkey, mashed potatoes, green beans, sweet potatoes, rolls and gravy were arguably the best that any of us have ever had! Thank you, Cathy, for helping to make our Thanksgiving the best!

My wife's cousin had a wedding and reception here recently. All in all the place itself is gorgeous…read moreand lent a nice vibe to the day. They had a beautiful outdoor space for the ceremony, tucked away in a clearing in the trees. For the reception ,the place itself is vrey cool. It's a barn all redone with really nice wood giving it a rustic yet modern feeling. It's two floors with the top floor having a nice wrap around deck. My only qualm with the place is that all that wood provides for plenty of echoing effect with the sounds reverberating around the room. It was very loud and hard to talk to people during cocktail hour and at your own dinner table. Then once the music was on, forget about it. It was like being at a loud club. This might not be an issue if the doors and windows were open but since it was hot they had air conditioning on, which left no place for the sound to all go. Outside of this, a really great venue though.

It's a beautiful venue. Did not like staff. Spent a lot of money to end up having my cousin set up…read morethe whole thing. Diana never once alleviated any of my worries. She added to them! Anything you asked about was met with an attitude. Very business like. Always made a point to prioritize tours and not the wedding they were hosting literally that weekend. We had to scramble out of the venue at the end of the night Saturday because they needed their cleaners to come in the next day to clean up for the tours at 10:30 am Sunday. Sunday morning came around and we were scrambling to get out by 10 am. The owner (whom I had previously never met) then came down to confront us about a one star review that was left by a guest of ours. Our guest felt as if he was being racially discriminated against by the bartenders as he was asked multiple times for his license, which he didn't have, it was in his car. He then presented it to the bartenders. Our guest was upset as he watched multiple other people getting drinks and he was the only one he saw get ID'd. We understand staff was trying to comply with NYS law; however, staff was seen laughing at our guest when he stated he felt racially discriminated against. THIS IS WHY HE WAS UPSET. Professional standards do not include laughing at guests when they bring a concern to management. Also, although they stated the bartenders ID'd numerous people, others were not ID'd once which creates a discrepancy in practice and therefore could be the cause for the issue above, but there is no excuse to laugh at a guests concerns, especially when it comes to race! There were other issues as well. We expressed this concern to the owner and I informed him if he would like to continue with our conversation, he could call. Big surprise he has NOT called me. If you were truly a businessman, you would care about low stars and would give that person a call in order to correct it for your next customer. The venue is stunning, I would Spend my money elsewhere that is more personable and you can actually enjoy your wedding! They only care about getting paid! Our day was amazing despite them!
