The Balcony

This place is too far for me to consider but for those in this area it's amazing! They decorate the place with lights of their own (which are in many of my pictures). They have a balcony area (hence the name!) but it's only inside and is a small little space. It's good for medium to large parties. The kitchen is a decent size and the sinks work. There are some downsides, but to me they didn't detract too much from the place. There are only two stalls in the restroom with a light in the largest one (which is good considering one of the overhead lights had gone out).The tables are a bit wobbly though, so make sure not to put anything crazy heavy on them. The parking lot is tiny and it's easy to get trapped here. Also, when it rains, it gets cold by the windows so bring a jacket. All in all, I always enjoy coming to this place. I think it's very pretty compared to most of the venues I see.

If I could give negative stars I would. First off the gate outside is all bent up, My god daughter had her wedding and reception there. As I walked the first thing I smelled, that's right smelled, was old fryer oil. I walked into one of the foulest kitchens I have ever had the misfortune of walking into. I cant say anything good about the kitchen. in fact I cant say anything good about the entire building.The owner Shari (I'm not sure how to spell her name) is rude and unwilling to get off her butt and drive down the street to assist. I spoke with her twice on the phone and she was extremely rude, unprofessional, and combative to say the least. She was more worried about bringing up what little items she didn't charge for as if these gave her the right to not come down and address honest concerns. Here is a list of items I found wrong doing a walk through.Kitchen FILTHY!!!bathrooms dirtychanging rooms dirtyrailing of the balcony loose and dangerouswalls and floors filthypaint chippingpillars crapservice sets, (food warmers) tarnished and dirtytables wobblyeating utensils tarnished and dirtyplates and glasses unmatchedlighting sucksdustyI can honestly go on and on but I may run out of room.I would not serve slop there or hold an execution there.

I have been to two small weddings/receptions here. From what I understood, they offer someone to decorate for you, but you have to find your own servers and bartenders. The decorations were average, nothing too spectacular. It is a large open room, perfect for a small reception. To me it does not seem like it is well managed or taken care of properly. You could tell the floors were dirty and the decor on the windows isn't cleaned or updated often. The kitchen area was really dirty, with molded "left overs" in the fridge. It's a shame its not taken care of better, because the building has so much potential!
