EPIC Railyard Event Center

I had a disappointing experience at this event center. My fiancé and I had scheduled a tour with the owner, Irma, two weeks in advance. Despite traveling from Dallas, we were greeted by no one upon arrival. When Irma finally showed up, she told my fiancé that she had meant to cancel our appointment. This lack of professionalism and communication left us feeling frustrated and inconvenienced. We had high hopes for the venue, but this experience left us with a negative impression.

This is such an awesome event center. You can do so many things at this venue. When you first walk down the little alleyway you come to a big open area where it would be perfect for like a little concerts or a little fleamarket. Then when you walk into the actual venue where the wedding was it was so nicely decorated. I would absolutely recommend this event center for a function. I don't know whether they catered the wedding or not but they had the ceremony and the reception in the same building. Really nice

Went there for a wedding reception . First off, they have free valet parking which would be fine except all 350 guests arrived AT THE SAME TIME. We we in a traffic jam on Texas St. for a long time. I gave up and parked my own car after letting off my family at the entrance. Second, the reception was extravagant but the servers of the 5 course dinner didn't seem to be coordinated. The servers didn't seem to know what to do or when and the meal , although fabulous tasting, was served rather haphazardly. I don't know if the servers were from EPIC or from the two places that brought the food. The place is not fancy and rustic but that is the charm, I guess. I would not host anything here. There are better options, IMHO.

I have attended numerous gatherings here, a photography workshop was one of them. I love the rustic feel, and the environment is one-of-a-kind!

This review is based solely on my interactions with the staff, I have never been to an event here or hosted an event here. Searching for a wedding venue out of the traditional ballroom types, we opted to check this one out for its rustic-type feel. We had initially set up an appointment during the week to take a look at the venue and get further information. The lady we spoke to said we could go after 5pm (which she agreed to although they are only open until 5pm.) to look at the venue. We confirmed with her that we would be there after 5pm. We show up and there was no one there! The venue was obviously closed for the day. We inquired at the business next door and they had no idea as to why she would confirm a time with us and not be there. So we left. (With a bad impression.) A separate day, we decide to do, on the whim, drop by with no appointment. There was someone there (I'm assuming the same lady that told us from the previous ordeal.) but her overall demeanor was very not friendly, no people skills. Very coldly showed me the place. Asked a couple of questions as to what I was looking for and that's about it. She remembered me after I told her about the previous experience but did not apologize or nothing. Suffice to say, for those reasons, we decided not to go with this place. (I could just imagine how handling a wedding would be like.)

I held a company Christmas party at this venue last year and hands down a wonderful experience. The staff is wonderful and easy to work with. The venue itself offers something different, its not a typical ballroom and offers character. It easily accommodated all 230 of us. We are booking this venue again!

I wish I could give this place a zero-star rating. Irma has to be the worst business owner I've dealt with. Despite traveling from Dallas, my experience at this venue was incredibly disappointing. Irma's treatment was utterly disrespectful. I had arranged a meeting with her three weeks in advance, providing ample time for her to cancel if necessary. Sadly, upon arriving, there was no warm welcome. All she said was, "I forgot to cancel you," without even an apology. She shut the doors on our face. I'm glad I will not be spending any of my time, money, and effort into dealing with someone like Irma. If you're looking for a venue please reconsider other options with better customer service.

The owner of the venue Irma forgot about our wedding appointment even though we came from out of town to meet with her. She treated us with the worst customer service.

We choose this venue for my daughter's wedding. We liked the rustic feel and were excited that we could add our own personal touch to it. Although it was intimidating at first because of the size, the owner helped us feel more comfortable with ideas and advise. I was also very grateful the owner allowed us to use some of their antiques which added extra touches to the venue. She was always available to address my questions and concerns. I have received only compliments from my friends and family about this venue!
