Banchetti By Rizzo's

t and melting before cocktail hour even started when my moh told them they brought it into the fridge only to then bring it out again with a huge dent in the side, that was in all my pictures. I'm really easy going so I wasn't that upset. It the fact they never followed up or apologized didn't sit well with me . Also one of the meals were supposed to go to a different table as people moved seats, which we had notified the waitstaff, the meal was never brought out and guest waited 40 mins for food, but again understandable as it could of been confusing ... Other then that tho the staff management everything was awesome and I would recommend this venue to all friends and family . It was beautiful, everyone complimented the food as well as the venue . Very happy with my choice !

great care of us, from the first meet!

you may have without hesitation)! We chose to have a buffet style dinner and it was the best choice! Our guests raved about the food and continue to talk about what a beautiful night it was. Thank you to Claire and Carol for helping us throughout the planning stages and for being there the day of to ensure that everything went smoothly. Ben was a great "go to" for anything we needed right away that night, too. Also, to pull it all together, it was great to see the owner, Mike Rizzo, there making sure that we were satisfied with everything. Our wedding would not have been the same if we did not have our reception at Banchetti's!

ered until a certain time) but the owner graciously called to have it filled up again and payed for it again, talk about customer service. Everyone raved about the food and how good it was. The gazebo was beautiful, I honestly can't say anything bad. Will definitely recommend

g about using the grove for the wedding and reception was that you get so much space! Your guests can use the grove area AND the reception area during dancing and cocktail hour! The space had a nice gazebo and all the surrounding trees made it very private. Food was fantastic, price was great, and the staff was good. A few things could have been better. When we initially booked, we weren't given our "wedding folder" which included a timeline. So we missed our 2 month appointment, and Benchetti didn't call us until 3 weeks prior to the wedding to schedule a meeting. And during the reception, they lost my toss bouquet, so we didn't get to do that. But overall, those were minor things.

nd work with me. The Grove looked great & the guests had a great time. I heard many compliments on the food! I could not have asked for a more caring staff to make the planning so easy or make it such a memorable day.

to the entree. We had prime rib, salmon and chicken riviera and everyone was pleased with the food, especially the portion size. We also ordered our wedding cake from Banchetti and it was delicious and absolutely beautiful. I was very pleased with everything on our special day and would definitely recommend Banchetti Banquet Facility to have your wedding reception.

y but over crowded. The food was excellent and I wished I had asked to take home a "doggie bag" to eat later. We had a buffet. The stuffed pork loin, carved ham and roast beef were PERFECT! Yum! I had left instructions and talked to several of the staff up to the day. They had placed my 3.5 x 5.5 feet picture of Nick's Lake behind the head table on tall cocktail tables as I had asked. It was just what I hoped for. I can't wait to see it behind us in the photos. The food was served in a timely fashion, the clean up was quick as well. The bartenders had awesome personalities. We had Irish Danced before dinner and I am so glad that they were flexible in keeping the floor clean and free until we were done before dinner. The bar was special, we had a keg of Sam Adams October Fest, a case of apple wine, and a sparkling wine at the head table added to our tab. They also substituted Jim Beam in for Jack Daniels per the groom's request. I only have a couple gripes but I could have done some of this myself so I will take half the blame. My 10 solar lanterns that were used in the centerpieces were not left by a window to charge and thus didn't light up during the reception. I wish someone had paid more attention to detail and noticed that before I did. BUT I could have done that I suppose. The day before there seemed to be confusion when I dropped my centerpieces and decor off. I had made an 11am appointment and I dind't get to talk to anyone until 11:45am which wasted a lot of my time since I got there early to unload. I just wanted to drop go over everything one last time and run. I think it would be best if only one person handled all my changes and requests. I had seen 3 different coordinators during my year of planning. Though if you have ask for anyone I favor Ben. It was a wonderful time and I'm glad we chose Banchettis.

or glitch was that his wife's family had arranged for appetizers to be served at 5 p.m. The room was not ready until about 5:15 which made it difficult for our older guests. Because we were not involved in the cost I cannot rate the value.

out.

off the FOOD was great!!!! Food and Music and key factors to your wedding day, so thank you Banchetti's!!

me too! I would just say to double check all details the day before the shower because some things seemed to be unclear but once we talked about it again it was perfect.

aved about the food.

derful! Thank you Banchetti's!!

the dinners for myself and my husband. The staff was marvelous, making sure every detail was perfect. The food was amazing, even my hard to please mother-in-law was happy with everything. I couldn't have had a better wedding reception. We had the tiki bar add on and every one loved it. All my friends and family have been saying it was the classiest and nicest wedding they have been too. If class and good food at an affordable price is what you are looking for this is the place to go.

r oriental)... Everyone kept commenting on how good the food was. The service was awesome, especially our head waitress she was right on top of everything and kept checking in with us without being annoying. The staff decorated everything perfectly and set up our center pieces, favors, guest book, etc, perfectly, and packed everything up nicely at the end of the night (without rushing us or making us feel like they wanted us gone). The owner and 3 different managers made contact with us throughout the night, which was nice. Overall we had a great experience with Banchetti and I definitely recommend them. I have never been to the inside rooms... But I LOVED the Grove. It is a risk with the weather, but it was sooo nice out there. It made it less banquet-ish and more unique and fun. And for the price, compared to other places around, you get sooo much. We had a 5 hour open bar, 4 appetizers (2 hot and 2 cold); for the stations we had a meat station with 2 carved meets and rolls; an italian station with 2 pasts, 2 sauces, veggies to go in the pasta, caesar salad, and meat for the pasta; and the seafood station, with 3 things (there were lots of choices for the seafood and also the meats for the other 2 stations, and a ton of appetizer choices). With gratuity and taxes, it was around 50 a person (and we upgraded the bar to top-shelf).

or that they were doing something wrong. It is a beautiful place and their food is wonderful!
