Chez Shari Banquet Facility

My husband and I had a great wedding reception at Chez Shari ! John is very knowledgeable and organized so we really felt like we were in good hands for our wedding evening. He shared a lot about choosing songs, the meals, activities, and worked closely with us on our preferences for the reception. Also he is super responsive over email so we really appreciated that. On the evening of our wedding, one notable thing I remembered was when the dance floor started having fewer and fewer people (my husband and I are millennials by the way), John started playing a song from our parents' time, which brought up a lot of people from our parents' generation and that was fun to see ! Chez Shari has a ceremony and reception option, but we were thankful that John also offered a reception-only option. Unfortunately we do not have much photos from our reception at Chez Shari, but the workers there made the ambiance feel very cozy. Would definitely recommend this place for other fellow to-be-marrieds with a more limited budget as we did but still looking for quality venues !

No amount of words can express how thankful we are that we found Chez Shari. From our first meeting with the owner John, we knew we made the right choice. John helped make the process of planning a wedding so easy! We didn't have to stress about anything because we knew it would all be taken care of. The food was amazing, the venue was beautiful and the service was great beyond our expectations. A special thank you to Felicia who helped me with some of the decorations, we truly appreciate all that you did. John, we are so thankful for you. You really helped make our dream wedding come true. All of our family and friends continue to talk about how beautiful and fun our wedding was. Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts. The Miranda's

Such a beautiful venue! Had my wedding here in February 2024. John took on being our DJ with 3 weeks left before our wedding and was AMAZING!

Food was delicious. Had their Prime Rib for Christmas with mashed potatoes and gravy.

10 Years ago we had my Moms 80th birthday party there. It was fantastic. I wish we could have have had her 90 th party there but I waited to long and they were already booked. I highly recommend Chez Shari.

Recently attended a holiday event with friends and colleagues. Long wait (about an hr) for drinks w/ two bartenders manning the bar. Bartenders looked upset the entire time. The server at the buffet appeared annoyed when serving our food. Main course (chicken and tri-tip) was dried. Dance floor was small so they asked if they could move our tables and chairs to make room, which left us with no place to sit. Some of the staff was friendly, but overall, the place lacked hospitality. Good thing our crowd knew how to make the most of the event and had a good time nonetheless. Would not recommend.

We had a celebration of life for my father at Chez Shari which was right across the street from where we had his service at PL Fry and Son Funeral Home, so it was convenient to go immediately following the service.  We made the arrangements with John, the banquet manager.  John had us send a Spotify playlist link to play all of the songs during the event as well as the slideshow we had at the funeral.There were lots of food options from sandwiches to pasta. We chose the chicken parmigiana with two kinds of pasta sauce and salad.  The drink options were good as well.  Since it was still during COVID there was a station with antibacterial gel placed before anyone could access the buffet. The tables were set up nicely with tablecloths. The staff was very accommodating. There was plenty of food left so they allowed us and our guests to box it all up before we left. This was a great experience and we would not hesitate to use them in the future should the need arise.

My husband and I got married last 11/28/21. It was beautiful. The food was great. The staff is very nice and friendly. John was very helpful. I would recommend this place 100%* Keep up the good work and good customer service.

Recently attended a wedding here. Although they ask everyone to sanitize their hands before going into the buffet line I would think due to Covid they would have servers dishing out the food instead of everyone touching all the serving utensils. The food was reheated frozen entrées at best. The only server they had was guarding the kids chicken strips and fries like they were gold. The facility was nice and the wedding guest all enjoyed themselves but would never recommend the catered meals

Recently had my wedding here on July 30,2022. It was such a great experience and everyone had a wonderful time . John was very helpful and accommodating.
