Want to thank jennifer of silent host 4u at orangecrest club for the incredible service. This venue is all inclusive with great decors for all occasions. Our celebrating of life reception had a two week window, and Jennifer's compassion heart and expertise, made it happen. We highly recommend this venue. The Gaxiola Family Thanks for helping us heal. read more

Amazing venue! I just used the venue for my mom's 80th birthday. First, the host, Jennifer, was so helpful. I could ask her any questions and she'd respond with an answer within minutes with multiple responses and/or options. All of my guests were complimenting me on the location, elegance, parking, open bar, and bouncy house. It accommodated all ages. I would recommend it to anyone. Jennifer made my mom feel like a queen and me a genius for picking this venue. You can pick a package or à la cart. The prices are reasonable on any budget. read more

Orangecrest Club Baby Shower Experience: Stressful Planning and Poor Communication I feel it's important to share our experience planning my daughter's baby shower at Orangecrest Club/Silent Host. From January through May, we made repeated efforts to resolve concerns and improve communication, hoping to make the planning process easier for everyone involved, but unfortunately those efforts were unsuccessful. We paid our deposit months in advance, yet after booking, the owner attempted to change previously quoted pricing for both the alcohol package and bartender. Additional fees also appeared later, including a security guard charge that had never been discussed during the booking process. Quoting the owner when we protested on the change of cost: "I'm not doing it for nothing just to break even." The biggest issue was communication. Despite repeated requests, we did not receive our contract until only 12 days before the event. The contract stated final payment was due two weeks before the event, yet we were expected to meet that deadline even though the contract was delivered after it had passed. When I asked questions about newly added fees and contract terms, responses were often delayed for days at a time. The venue itself worked well enough for our event (needs new flooring desperately), but the planning process was unnecessarily stressful. We struggled to obtain basic information needed for decorations and setup, and communication remained inconsistent throughout the process. We were told a security guard was required because alcohol was being served, but no security guard ever appeared. We were later told one had been sent away because we were "fine." The owner also left the event for several hours despite advertising an on-site "silent host" to assist when needed. After the event, despite leaving the facility exceptionally clean and being told our deposit would be refunded within seven days, it took multiple follow-ups and over two weeks to receive our refund. During one of those follow-ups, the owner asked whether we wanted to tip her or her staff. We had already tipped the bartender generously for her excellent service. The owner's inconsistent pricing, poor communication, surprise fees, delayed responses, and lack of professionalism made what should have been a joyful family event far more stressful than necessary. I believe she issued the contract after I started questioning her changes and increased prices, knowing it was so close to the event date we had no choice. She lied, she manipulated, and she should not be running a business. I gave her the opportunity to be accountable and instead she used our community forum to try to blame me for her shortcomings as an owner. Based on our experience, I would not rent this venue again. (This doesn't include all problems encountered, but for the sake of not writing a longer novel I tried to summarize best as I could.) read more

My name is Reyna. I booked Orangecrest club for a Sweet 16 August 1st for My Granddaughter. We picked up the packages offered at Orangecrest club and were extremely satisfied with the outcome. Jennifer made sure that I did not have to worry about managing the event. The manager Jen went above and beyond to make sure the event went smooth and made our night perfect. I highly recommend this venue because Jennifer the manager is a true professional that will go above and beyond for your event. My expectations were 1000% meant. The event felt upscale. It made our night perfect and My Granddaughter loved it. Her friends are saying she had the party of the year. read more

This week we had my father in law's celebration of life at this amazing venue. The venue was set up beautifully. The owner, Jennifer, was absolutely wonderful to work with. I had some moments leading up to the event where my emotions and stress levels were quite high and Jen did a phenomenal job easing those feelings and making me feel relaxed and reassured that everything will be wonderful and it definitely was. I had so many of our friends and family compliment the venue and tell me how beautiful the service was. I would highly recommend this space for your next event. The owner does an excellent job running your event for you so you can sit back and relax and enjoy your friends and family. Thank you Jen for giving us this beautiful evening. read more

My father's celebration of life was held at the Orangecrest Club, and I just attended another celebration of life there recently. Jennifer, the host, is absolutely wonderful to work with. She is flexible, kind, accommodating, and compassionate when it comes to helping plan a COL. She communicated clearly with us throughout the whole planning process and made a difficult time a little easier. I have already recommended the Orangecrest Club and Jennifer's services to others. The Orangecrest Club is a good choice, especially if your loved one's services are at Riverside National Cemetery. read more

Jennifer and staff did an amazing job with the presentation of my brother's celebration of life reception!

Thanks for Everything!!!!! read more

Amazing service. Great communication. And an absolute beautiful set up. Definitely recommend for any event.

Jennifer is an absolute angel. She handled our Celebration of Life for my husband with so much care from start to finish. She made herself available at all hours and gave us great suggestions.

Jennifer was the best host! She worked with our budget and helped put on our high school theater banquet. She was accommodating and opened up the night before our event so we could set up early. She hustled and was attentive to all needs during the banquet. The event space was clean, easily accessible, and nice and cool on a hot afternoon. I highly recommend The Orangecrest Club! read more

If you need a place to host an event, this is the place to go! Jennifer from start to finish was the best host! She helped my family and I get through a very difficult time. She ensured that our Dad's Celebration of Life was a success! And I can say with full confidence that it was flawless. Jennifer took the time to address all of our concerns from beginning to end. Every detail from the catering, to the place setting, to the color coordination was spot on. She ensured that I was able to pay tribute to my dad and had her set up ready to go for the powerpoint and music. Highly recommend! read more

We had our wedding here January 20th. I was hesitant due to the recent influx of less than stellar reviews but I wanted to call and meet in person before making any snap judgements. Phyllis coordinates the event space and she was a very nice person. Most complaints in these reviews are from people who clearly didn't read the contract she provided you. My event went off without a hitch. She was accommodating to our crazy schedule and was very helpful when I needed to reach out by email. Phyllis offers a rental package that comes with linens, chargers, goblets, and napkins among other items at an affordable rate. This honestly made set up and take down a breeze. If in need to host an event again, I wouldn't hesitate to choose the orange crest club again! read more

Can't say enough about what an amazing experience we had with this venue. Jennifer went above and beyond to ensure we had not only a beautiful venue with so many little touches but also really cared about our kids having a night to remember. If you are looking for a location that comes with a personal touch this is the place for you! She worked with our budget and we could not have been happier with the result. Thanks again! read more

This place is a gem. Jennifer knocks it out of the park. We had our father's funeral reception here and Jennifer didn't miss a thing. So comfortable, pumping AC, clean bathrooms and helpful Audio/Visual support. read more

Let me start off by saying what a sweet person Phyllis is. She made the experience so much easier and stress free. Now, let me get into details. Found this place for my cousin's wedding reception and it was great. From the size and location to the wait staff. Everything was great. Phyllis helped throughout the whole process. Made it seem like she was also a part of the family. She made the whole experience AMAZING. If I could, I would book the banquet hall for all events; birthdays, graduations, etc. This place is truly a hidden gem read more

We had our wedding here on November 6th, 2021 after waiting it out from covid. Definitely five stars . The hall is simple but elegant, clean, beautiful windows and pretty spacious. Phyllis is the most amazing host, very helpful and did a beautiful job decorating the hall for us. Very affordable I absolutely loved how my wedding turned out!! Phyllis thank you again for everything! Will always be a beautiful memory for us on our special day. Love The Vasquez Family read more

The manager is majorly RUDE! We still had a 1/2 hour on the hall and she came in and started shutting down our party. Told the D.J to start winding down, lower the music and said that the music was offensive. Personally I thought she was a bit raciest. read more

Good communication leading up to the event and very fair pricing. Manager is great with the decorations and the place looks better in person. Photos don't do it justice. My only fair criticism is on the day of the event, as others have pointed out, the manager became very controlling. Our caterer did not want to serve before we (bride and groom) arrived, but they notified me they were being pressured. We could only cut the wedding cake in the room, we had to use the kitchen to serve it. Despite paying for the venue until midnight, we were being rushed to wrap up our reception. Manager seemed very put out when the family wanted to stay until our closing time. Lastly, family was helping clean up at the end of the night and tossing trash bags into a truck bed. As recyclables are worth money in CA, the manager accused a family member of attempted theft and "stealing" verbatim. Mind you, these were our own provided cans and bottles. This caused an altercation, which thankfully was settled, but not a good choice of words to use towards family members who have been drinking. I understand wanting to protect your venue and taking all necessary precautions to do so, but in my opinion, there is some hospitality to be expected from an event coordinator. We loved the place but almost felt like a burden. read more

We threw a surprise 60th birthday for my mother, Patricia, at Orangecrest Club last night. Wow, everything went PERFECT Phyllis was amazing to work with and incredibly sweet. She also recommended our bartender, Tino, and server, Tyson. The whole staff was like family! We are so grateful to each of you for making my mom feel special last night. read more

I had my event here 8/8/19. The venue itself is nice, clean, affordable, and spacious. It includes tables and chairs which you will have to provide linens and chair covers yourself if you wish. The kitchen is open but you can not use the stove to cook. There's a fridge and plenty of ice that can be used which is also great. There is an outside area that is very beautiful too. It's fenced in and has a lot of greenery. When I first interacted with Phyllis, she was friendly and provided tons of information. Throughout the times we did meet, she continuously asked if we would have someone "play bartender" mind you we only served soda, water & tea. There was no alcohol involved. I didn't think it would be such a huge deal to have someone stand behind the bar to hand out sodas and water but she demanded that we had someone behind the bar. She had asked if we were going to be servicing appetizers, I told her well we will be serving "nachos, pasta salad and fruit" she then replied "wow those are your appetizers".... The day of the event, she still insisted to have a bartender and demanded someone be behind the bar. She also told us when we needed to start feeling up the sinks with ice and placing our drinks in the ice. She was also a bit intrusive and invasive. I had a table setup where our guests can put there gifts and cards, it was also a memorial table for two family members. As I was changing in the restroom she goes in and says "do you have a table setup for gifts because you just had a guest bring a big gift" which I then explained to her where the gift table was. After that she periodically would walk out from the kitchen to I guess, check on how everything was going. Because of everything that happened it did make a couple of our guests feel uneasy. With all that being said, Phyllis does offer decorating and she did a great job on that. Overall I would say everything was ok and that's why I'm giving 3 stars. If customer service was better that would of made our experience better and I could of gave more stars. read more

Don't get this place the manager she's so rude she will think u will steal there stuff horrible service when it comes to her .

This place is amazing. Just had my daughter's Quinceañera there and it was nothing short of fantastic. Phyllis is awesome. She answered all my questions and was there every step of the way. Going with the decorations and service package was worth it. The servers were attentive and polite. Phyllis was there with them making sure nothing was out of place and going as planned. Anything that came up unexpected Phyllis went with the flow and assisted as much as she was able. 10/10 I will always recommend this place. read more

I had my Wedding here and the manager was a pest she allowed the air conditioner to turn off when the weather was 103 degrees all my guest were sweating and crazy hot for like 2 hour.she complained about everything I wouldn't recommend this hall just because the manager.the building is nice but she is not very professional read more

I'm giving this establishment a high rating based on the wedding party I attended on Friday evening. I am not privy to all the details that went into the choice of making the OrangeCrest Club the wedding venue. All I know is that we had a pleasurable night. The wedding was well planned by the coordinator and she should be commended for having done an outstanding job. The wedding and the party right afterwards are to be onsite. When we arrived there was great hustle and bustle, but we could see that we were early. The decorations were in place, the tables were nicely covered with chargers and place settings. The front of the hall was where the wedding vows would take place and it has a nice size dance floor with a side for the DJ's sound equipment. The restrooms were easily accessible and the bar area was quickly found as you enter the hallway. Outside there was plenty of parking for guests and on the front of the building there was an area for nice wedding pictures. On the far side there was a semi patio area for those that needed to have fresh air. The service did a great job keeping up with the ceremonies, the food lines were quick and the bar was tended professionally. Like all weddings, it is the moments for the bride and the groom to shine and I would like to say that the OrangeCrest Club offered a nice venue for this wedding. read more

i had a party in November at this facility. everything went exactly as planned. Phyllis was awesome! Everything delivered exactly as promised. she was very attentive and sweet. Our event was amazing. the building looked perfect the extras we added were well worth the money. i highly recommen! read more

Was here for a retirement party. Now the location itself is great my concern is with the service. One of the servers "Tyson" made me and my wife feel very uneasy. The guy kept hovering over my son. There was 7 other kids in the place and he kept zeroing in on my son. Total creeper, we would purposely go outside to get away and he would find a way to come around and hover. Other family members noticed his odd behavior as well. When my wife made the manager aware of the situation she was very dismissive. Instead of being understanding and telling him to back off she stated he's a close friend, great with kids etc. No parent should have to feel the way we did today instead of enjoying the party I had to watch where "Tyson" was at all times. No reply needed since the initial interaction regarding him was dismissed. read more

I just had my son's 5th birthday party yesterday and it was a total blast! I had multiple people asking me details about the venue because of how nice and big it was inside . We will definitely be booking future events with them read more

Just wanted to thank The Orangecrest Club , and especially Phyllis. We just had our wedding and reception there. It was amazing. We had around a hundred guests.

Extremely disappointed. We had confirmed our event date, paid our deposit, and signed our contract to reserve the venue. Received a phone call a couple days later where the manager started the conversation with "You're going to kill me...." and notified me that she had double booked the venue and had to cancel our date. She apologized once and offered no accommodation(s) or dates. Quite disappointed with her approach at notifying us that the venue was no longer available for a date we confirmed over the phone on several occasions. Overall, not a good experience. read more

We just held a post-wedding reception at the Orangecrest Club for my son and new daughter-in-law who were married in Columbus, OH. This venue was just perfect for our group. The layout is very accommodating for a celebration that includes dancing. Phyllis, the coordinator, was wonderful to work with ...from my initial meeting with here to see the venue through the actual event itself. She was flexible and incredibly customer focused. She offered many great suggestions for us, and provided service that was "above and beyond"! It is my pleasure to highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for a place to have a reception. read more

I really wish I could give 10 stars!! Celebrated my wedding here and it was absolutely PERFECT! Phyllis and her crew did a wonderful job! The decorations, service, and organization was amazing! I didn't have to worry about a single thing, Phyllis took care of all the details. The hall was beautifully set up for all my guests and my husband and I were treated like royalty! I would definitely recommend the Orangecrest Club to anyone who is looking for a nice, clean and affordable venue. I will be hosting more parties here! Thank you Phyllis! :) read more

Read the reviews before you sign the contract! I wanted a stress free- modest party for my daughter and this place did not deliver! At our second visit with the hall coordinator (after signing the contract) she let out a list of rules to follow including the rule that made it difficult for us to decorate; no tape on the walls, you can only use the hooks that are already in place; many were missing and others were falling off. The day of the event, she was walking around anxiously stating her demands to the vendors, my family, and guest. Everyone felt uncomfortable with her presence, especially since nobody knew who she was. Although she was very impolite, I kept my cool the entire time. I do not believe that her intentions were to be rude; however, she puts unnecessary pressure (drill sergeant like) on anyone. The day after the event, I checked the reviews and found this one from Miranda M that describes my experience exactly: "The event coordinator will smile in your face up until the day of the event to get your money. I had my wedding reception here and was VERY disappointed with the way she treated my family, vendors, and guests (as if they were below her)! I couldn't believe the things they told me after the wedding was finally over. She totally transformed into a rude, controlling person, making things way more difficult than they needed to be. I will NEVER host another event here as long as she is the event coordinator and don't recommend it to anyone else! Save yourself and avoid!" read more
