My sweetie, who is an online seller, and I paid $70 each last March for an event there that was put on by Poshmark. We dressed up formally and were expecting to have a very fun engaging time with an elaborate buffet spread. After all, it did cost $70 per ticket!!!! Anyhow we were so disappointed! Their buffet was of fast food fare. There were grilled cheese quesadillas, simple beef burgers and fries. Seriously!!! OMG!!! If I wanted fast food fare like this, I would go to el Pollo Loco or Carls Jr. for better fast food and still pay much less. All I did at the event mostly was sit around and play with my phone. I did talk with a few other people who attended this event who told me the previous work shop event held by Poshmark was not that great either and the food was mediocre. Sure, Poshmark could have done better. There could have been interactive activities like a scavenger hunt event to win prizes and other contests, there could have been guest speakers, and free goody bags for participants. Gee, I am not even an event coordinator and know how this event could have been better! But I found the buffet to be the most disappointing. Sure, Poshmark perhaps chose the menu but it also reflects on the restaurant/event venue. After all, this is supposedly an ultra high end restaurant/event venue with the ambience to match. But the food was not worth the $70 ticket. And, sitting around with not much more to do but over indulge on fast food, talk with others in a noisy venue, and sit around fiddling with my phone was not fun for me. It was the first time my sweetie and I ever went to this restaurant/event venue and it was a let down. We may have got an inaccurate first impression of this place. I would think the general menu for this place must be better then the food that was catered at this event. I would think other events held here would have better buffets with a carving station, a salad bar, a snack bar and more (but for much less than $70 to attend). But surely other events that charge attendance here would have been better than the one we attended here. We did not find coming to this restaurant/event venue memorable. We will not be coming back to this restaurant /event venue nor ever come to another $70 Poshmark event like the one held here. It was disappointing. I wish we could have got our money back. read more

We held our wedding at the Glasshouse recently and can't stop reliving the day. From the moment we set foot at The Glasshouse, we knew we had found the perfect venue for our wedding. The venue itself is simply breathtaking. With its floor-to-ceiling windows, creating a serene and airy atmosphere that feels both intimate and expansive. Every corner of The Glasshouse was picture-perfect, and the clean, modern aesthetic offered endless possibilities for decor. The space is versatile and adaptable, allowing us to personalize it in a way that felt uniquely ours. There is also a patio outside perfect for cocktail hour. It's also situated walking distance from all the major DTSJ bars/clubs so access to an after party to readily accessible. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect venue to celebrate our special day. The staff at The Glasshouse went above and beyond to ensure every detail of our wedding was flawless. From the very beginning, they were incredibly attentive, helping us with every step of the planning process. On the day of our wedding, the team was professional, warm, and always there when we needed them. Thank you so much to Savanah, Whitney and Oswaldo for all that they do. They made sure everything ran smoothly, so we could relax and enjoy every moment without worrying about a thing. If you're looking for a stunning venue that offers both beauty and impeccable service, we wholeheartedly recommend The Glasshouse! We loved our experience at Glasshouse, and there is one individual that we would like to specifically mention. Our event coordinator, Savanah, was incredible and really made the entire process and day as memorable as can be. From the moment she took over for our previous coordinator, Savanah exceeded all of our expectations and brought a level of dedication, care, and professionalism that made our wedding day unforgettable. Our previous coordinator was nice but often offered empty platitudes. We didn't feel like she really heard our questions or request and would often have to remind her of our previous conversations and agreement, also constantly having to send reminders for updates - she is no longer with the venue. When Savanah took over, it was a huge blessing. We had actually met Savanah prior when we were touring the venue and loved working with her instantly but the event coordination was handled by the previous coordinator at the time. We couldn't be more thrilled to have Savanah take over as our event coordinator. She was personable, responsive, and always available for questions. Savanah's attention to detail, communication, and responsiveness was second to none. She made sure every aspect of our wedding was flawlessly executed, from the smallest decor elements to the smooth coordination of the entire event. It was clear that she not only understood our vision, but also cared deeply about bringing it to life in the best way possible. Beyond her exceptional organizational skills, Savanah's kindness, generosity, and personable character made for a truly exceptional experience. She was always there for us, offering support and coordinating with our wedding coordinators to make sure everything was well thought out and ran smoothly. Her thoughtful approach and genuine care for us made the entire planning process a pleasure. We always felt at ease knowing we had such a competent and compassionate professional in our corner. Our wedding day was everything we had hoped for and more, and we owe so much of that to Savanah. Even after the wedding, she was still checking in on us to make sure everything was what we hoped it would be and even went out of her way to offer us her congratulations. What more can we say to express how much we loved working with Savanah except simply thank you for making our wedding day the best we could have imagined. We are beyond grateful to have had the opportunity to work with you, and we could not recommend you more highly for all to-be-newlyweds. Savanah is a gem, and we will always remember her as an integral part of our special day. read more

The Glass House is AMAZING! The venue, the food, and the staff are all five stars. I engaged the Glass House for our non-profit fundraiser and they outdid themselves. From working with us patiently on our menu, perfectly capturing our vision, and even staying meticulously to our color scheme of pink and green (down to the lighting!), they were phenomenal partners. I highly recommend them, and can't wait to work with them again. Don't give away my date for 2025! ;-) read more

I have been planning events for my company for the past seven years. I would say this was one of my favorite events. They went above and beyond. The venue itself is gorgeous, the setup was beautiful. We had about 200 people with a full-course plated meal. Everything was delicious. Had people coming up to me saying how great the food was even. Staff was very friendly. Dani was our coordinator and did a fantastic job from start to finish. Thank you so much! read more

Horrible security. My friend was almost sexually assaulted while I was in the restroom and she told the guard to the 21+ area someone is grabbing her. They said it wasn't their problem and they only manage the security of the entrance and nothing else. They don't care about anyone's safety read more

Tickets are meaningless since they keep everyone in line until tickets are expired. Imposible to reason with door people unless money was provided. You would think they would provide an ounce of hospitalitly given their admission prices were more than two cheap drinks. Even after an hour of opening, there were not many people inside and they were like zombies, barely dancing, only sholders moving an inch with feet in cement... Sad sad establishment. Do better. read more

The Glass House was an amazing venue for any type of party or occasion. I went here with my aunt to her Christmas holiday party for Malwarebytes company. This location was big enough to host over 300 people. I loved the decor of the venue with a huge bar. I also really liked the idea that there was a separate area for the food. We had a selection of different meats, mashed potatoes, salads, lasagna, and cheeses. The servers were also walking around with egg rolls, empanadas (which were amazing) and wings. The best part was the chocolate fondue station with a assortment of different treats to dip in the fondue. The party had an open bar from 6-8pm. I never felt I had to wait for a drink because the bartenders were very efficient. The only downside was that parking was very difficult to find on a Saturday night! We ended up parking 2 streets down. read more

The Glass House was pretty darn nice! We went here for the 2019 yelp elite holiday party & yelp knows how to throw a party! This location was big enough to host 8+ vendors and leave room for performances. There was two photo booths, a few dessert tables, Mediterranean food, sushi hand rolls, 7leaves, vodka tasting and more. I was really impressed. Unfortunately, I got here a bit late - 7:30pm to be exact. So I only got to try a few things. I got to try the Mediterranean sampler dish - AMAZING. I was really happy with everything on the plate! Hand roll with avocado and rice only (ran out of sashimi), but it was still super duper good! Probably my favorite. I've been trying to cut down on my protein intake and this helped with my cravings. Hot chocolate from chromatic coffee - possibly the best hot chocolate I've had in a while. And vodka - tasted like vodka but it was really good mixed with their "Moscow mule" mixer. Although I was really late to the event, I'd have to say - I still enjoyed my time here. For future reference, I'll know to get there early so I can try more food next time. I was kind of sad that food ran out around 7:45 though :/ All in all - THANK YOU GLASS HOUSE FOR HOSTING THE 2019 YELP ELITE HOLIDAY PARTY! read more

Just got married and where to start! The GlassHouse SJ from start to finish worked with my wife and I to make sure we had the best weekend and wedding of our life and we 100% did! From logistics to the cost to the last minute situations that arose, they worked with us all to make sure all sides were happy. And happy we were!!! The venue was beautiful and in a great location, and the staff here worked real hard to make sure they brought our dream wedding to a reality! Special shout out to Whitney, Dani, Gladys, and Oswaldo who all helped to ensure the most amazing night! Cannot thank you all enough! Will be referring future clients to you all! Thank you!!!! read more

This is a good place for a smaller event. It's downtown, near parking, reasonably safe, modern facilities. The reason I'm even making a comment is the bathroom situation is ridiculous. They're very small. The men's room is one stall in a sort of closet? and then three very small urinals very close together with no dividers. I'm not shy, nor a prude, but it's very very awkward. It's hip to hip. read more

I celebrated my All White themed birthday party here in the outdoor patio area. Ruby the event coordinator was amazing. Great customer service, friendly, and she helped me create some cute decorative details to accent the party theme. The space was lovely inside, and out.

August 2024 bride here and I can say without a doubt that we had the most incredible wedding at this venue. As a super type A bride, who was on a budget and doing a lot of DIY, I was initially skeptical having seen a couple bad reviews here and there but Dani and her team delivered the most EXCELLENT SERVICE. The communication working with Dani was clear and extremely helpful, she was always there for us, answered every email and phone call. We updated our BEO and floor layout multiple times, she was always cheery and happy to help. Their team even folded our menus into their napkins for us. And when we walked into our venue the day before to drop our items off we were blown away. Everything was fully set up and ready to go. Not only is this venue gorgeous but our guests could NOT stop talking about the Salmon, cooked to perfection. When is Salmon not dry at a wedding? When its at the Glasshouse!!! Our guests danced the night away and brought the HOUSE DOWN! The staff was gracious and allowed us to meander our way out, no harsh lights to signal the end of the evening. Dani and her staff were so attentive throughout the evening including when a few stray bubble guns got the dance floor slippery right before the mother/groom dance, and within 2 minutes of asking one of the waiters to help mop it up, it was done! This team works like a well oiled machine and they made our wedding INCREDIBLE. I had old chinese aunties tell me they hadn't danced in 20 years and that they hit up our dance floor (!!!!) We had the incredible time here and cannot say enough THANK YOUS to Dani, Rachelle, Gladiz and the entire team here. WOW. Our day went so well because of you! Thank you!! read more

This review is way long overdue. We have our wedding at The Glass House on 4/6/19 and we can't thank enough for all the staffs at the GH for an amazing job they did on our special day!! GH is very spacious from the upstairs bridal suite to groomsmen's room to the dance floor. My husband loved how the groomsmen has their own bar in the room. We love how we have access to the bridal suite all day so we can get ready there. Bridal suite has great sunlight for makeup, pictures, spacious restroom, and this suite can fit 15 girls. The venue is beautiful, modern, and worked great for having both our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception there. The room turnaround time was so fast, and everything went according to plan! Bartenders service was excellent on our special day. Guests were very happy how the service turn out. The servers came to each table and asked guests if they needed anything else. We were really happy that GH did that. We couldn't be happier about how everything turned out! Thank you for making our day so special!! We highly recommend GH!! Book with The GH and you will not disappoint! read more

Came here for a Yelp holiday party event and the space was amazing. There were over 15 vendors setup with ample room along with multiple bars and games! There was even a wooden dance floor platform setup for a dance exhibition. There is also a 2nd floor overlooking the main space! I also got to try the catered food from The Glass House and the appetizers where quite fancy and tasty. This would be a great place for a reception with catering on-site. They also have a large hallway under the 2nd floor which could be turned into a private area or more room for fun! I don't know the pricing, but I would definitely consider The Glass House for future events! read more

My sorority had an event here and while the venue was pretty, the staff seemed rather unorganized. We paid for an event with over 200 people and they told us that they would provide microphones. When we began to give our awards the woman who was in charge of the venue's services had left and we had no microphones. This meant that we had to literally scream so that our guests could hear us which was embarrassing. At the end of the night no one was aware of the time of last call for the bar so they stopped serving earlier than expected. All in all, our guests were disappointed with the outcome of our event which only occurs every five years unfortunately. read more

The invitation says it will be a decadent Soiree to celebrate the grand opening of San Jose's newest event venue. I agree! From three blocks away you can hear the music and see the pulsing lights! Almost all attendees were all decked in the evening's theme the Roaring 20's! Hosted by Dekko88, Today's Bride, Honeybook and The Glasshouse, this party kept its promise of flowing cocktails , hors d'oeuvres and a virtual who's who guest list from the business community, wedding industry and city hall. TGH's 12,000 square foot venue is the perfect place to make a lasting impression and can be suited to any occasion. Planning a wedding? Check this place out. A convention? Why not? How about a yelp event Candice G? :) they can handle events from 50-1200 yelpers! Just sayin' ... They have a full prep kitchen, selection of excellent caterers and an award winning design team! The outside seating is perfect hangout place for those much needed SoBay fun in the sun! Thanks for the invite! Welcome to d/t San Jose! Cheers! read more

Pictures don't do justice. Thanks to Vanessa for working with us from beginning to the end. My husband had fallen in love with the Glass House when checking out the pictures so we made a deposit on day 1. We love how modern and stylish the venue looks. It was very spacious and could accommodate both ceremony and reception. The bridal suite was perfect and a great place for a party of 15 ladies to get hair and makeup done. We had such a great time and everyone who participated said they loved the Glass House and our wedding. Thanks to the Glass House and your team for making our special life event greater and more memorable than it was.

RUN!!!! Seriously though! The venue is gorgeous but don't let that fool you. The staff is horrible to work with. This is a long review but worth reading. The stress this place causes is not worth the beautiful venue! Started with a phone call with Rebekah, she was very nice and gave us available dates to choose from over the phone. We choose 5/29/22 because she suggested it would be flexible with pricing and because it was a Sunday it wasn't a popular date. We agreed to still tour the place, and fell in love with the venue! Although when we arrived she hands us a random quote for their sister venue because someone else on her team booked that date without her knowledge apparently... She later said she booked it by mistake thinking she was looking at 2023 when we spoke, which cannot be true because 5/29/23 would be a MONDAY not SUNDAY. During our tour, she was nice, and was throwing in services and items to comp us for the mixed up date and she would get a proper quote to us shortly. After about a week we started reaching out for our personalized quote. About a week after we got our quote and to our surprise she had tried to charge us for all the comped items and services that she had promised us during our tour which she was taking notes down at. With the double booking and hearing so many different things in person that I was told on the phone/email. We decided this place wasn't for us due to its lack of professionalism, and even took the time to email a proper denial and stated reasons why we didn't feel comfortable using The Glasshouse. A week or 2 passes and we get an email from Christa, she seems amazing and promises to work with us and that we wouldn't have to work with Rebekah due to our lack of confidence in her. Christa was amazing and very responsive and knowledgeable. She provides an amazing tasting bath their sister venture and had an amazing personalized served which sealed the deal for us thinking our prayers have been answered! Signed contract and deposit paid! Let's Go! Some time passes and I reach out to Christa with a question since she had been so great to us and you our surprise she no longer works there and I can reach out to Rebekah with any questions! At this point I felt extremely tricked/ bait and switched into signing our contract. Moving forward we had to contact Rebekah and Ruby many times before getting any response. I literally had to dig through emails to PROVE to them what we were promised certain services like the Marquee outside. Which we were told was not going to work for our event - a month out! Miraculously they had it fixed in time but guess what. by the time it was nightfall our image was long gone way before our event was over and no one in site to fix it. Good luck getting our gorgeous night time shot of the sign on the building! This place is so unorganized and is a nightmare to work with as a Bride to be there was nothing but added stress working with this venue. I had to reach out to confirm everything, I scheduled rehearsal by reaching out to them multiple times. I had to also correct them on event orders they sent over with different pricing then what we originally agreed on. Fast forward to Day of! I saw Ruby ONE TIME the whole event. My fiance and the groomsman had to rush to move furniture around and out of the bridal suite when I got there because he said it was just full of furniture and I couldn't get in. It was not cleaned up good from the event they had the night before.. My Drunk MOH was able to somehow get a bunch of champaign before the ceremony! and later we learned it was from our champaign toast!! Apparently ruby was allowing her without mine or my husbands authorization. Cocktail hour was supposed to be in the patio and by the bar, but the patio was LOCKED and not set up AT ALL! So our guests were coming out front getting in the way of photos which made them take longer.. Our DJ wasn't able to turn the volume up on his system because the power from the glass house didn't support it! THE BAR was charging people different pricing for drinks! We literally had guest pay anywhere from 10$- 18$ for a jack Daniels and coke. No one knew what the actually prices where. After the meal was done my now Husband asked for the leftovers they wouldn't allow us to take any leftover food!! They lied to my husband and said they threw it away but I walked to the kitchen and made my daughter a plate and saw a ton of left overs! What kind of bull is that! read more

TGH was a great location for our event! All of the staff were professional, attentive, and very helpful throughout the process. The venue is wonderful and is perfect for any occasion.

The perfect venue to hold a wedding! I must say, I'm surprised our wedding went so smoothly. I have worked with many difficult staff and coordinators leading up to GlassHouse. We knew GlassHouse was the one when we saw just how well Marlene and Rich were able to pull everything together so seamlessly. Thank you Marlene as our day of coordinator! We had both our ceremony and reception at the venue. Set up was fast and thorough throughout the entire night. Of course, family had to be all hands on deck in the early afternoon for items the venue does not assist with. That worked out perfectly fine and was as expected. Here are some amazing shots from this weekend. read more

Our event turned out okay, but I completely disappointed by the service during setup on the day of. The glasshouse only allows an abysmal 2 hours of setup with each event, which required us to purchase multiple extra hours of setup time in order for our vendors to setup properly. Our event coordinator was very rarely on the floor during the setup. The only time they were present without us having to go to the office and knock on the door was when they had the gall to bring in another couple for a site visit during the venue setup time THAT WE PAID FOR. As if that wasn't inappropriate enough, they actually took the touring couple to the bridal room, WHILE THE BRIDE WAS STILL THERE GETTING READY. This was completely inappropriate, and there was no acknowledgement or apology, let alone any kind of advance notice that random strangers would be brought in while we were preparing for our event. It's infuriating/unthinkable that they thought it was even remotely appropriate to bring strangers into the bridal ready room. Our hair and makeup artists were appalled, and the bride was extremely embarrassed. Think twice before you sign. They're attentive until you sign the contract with them. read more

Attended the 2019 Yelp Holiday party and it was the most awesome experience to attend. It was my first time there and didn't even know that it's a venue for those who need a place for weddings, big birthdays, gathering and events. There is private parking in the building but didn't see that until I parked and had the chance to find free parking after 6pm across the street. We had some catering done by the staff that supply the building and it was pretty damn good. I am guilty of getting more than a couple of pieces. I had to ask the staff if it was made in house and it was and didn't believe it because the quality to detail and taste was top notch. It's a beautiful place to have events if you need a place for any need that you may seek. read more

HORRIBLE!!!! Held an event with nearly 200 people here and while the venue is beautiful and in a perfect location the staff is not helpful, snotty, unprofessional, rude, unorganized, and unpleasant. While planning the event, staff was not easy to get ahold of, did not put in any effort into making sure that we could have a proper event, and was impatient. They screwed up our plans and overcharged us nearly 2,000 dollars.. While at the event they left us with no equipment for music or even something as simple at a speaker. DO NOT WORK WITH THIS VENUE!!!!! HORRIBLE!!!!!! read more
