As a group we loved everything, the food was amazing, especially the chicken, potatoes and pasta as well as the cheese cake and everything was homemade. The ambience and service was exceptional, and I personally recommend. Thank you Dean!
Cefalo's was incredibly accommodating, classy, fun, professional, and easy to work with. The food was amazing, and Cefalo's was willing to accommodate many different dietary needs for guests. My husband and I were married on October 2, 2021, and Cefalo's ensured that our reception was magical!
We had a wonderful experience with Cefalo's. Thank you so much to Dean and Amy!
My now husband and I were looking for a venue that would go with our planned Art-Deco themed wedding. Cefalo's was the very first place we looked at and we fell in love right away! Len was absolutely fantastic with helping us plan everything and the entire staff was so friendly and made sure the day was perfect for us! The food is not just your standard wedding food, they seriously go above and beyond. We had so many guests tell us that this was the best wedding food they have ever had, and we could not agree more!
I can't recommend Cefalo's enough!
Cefalo's was the PERFECT place for our Reception. Len, the owner is a fantastic organizer and extremely good at what he does. He is punctual, fun, and knows his stuff! The business is family run so you know it is personal to them! They worked so well with us to help nail down every important detail for us and they were ALWAYS available when we needed to coordinate with them. The food at this venue is truly amazing. You really cannot say enough good stuff about it. Everything is prepared fresh and in house and served efficiently and professionally. People are STILL raving about how delicious all of the food was at our wedding and they also couldn't get over how cool it was that they had run of a full bar as opposed to a selection of just 3 beers, 3 wines and 4 liquors like so many places will do. The food, the bar, the service and the staff (ownership) are not the only amazing things about this venue! It is a truly gorgeous location for a wedding. It takes great to uplighting, has a stage, a balcony, a VIP bridal party area, and then the party room and dinner room are two different places so you can keep the dinner formal and the party fun! People are STILL telling us how much they loved everything about our wedding. They can't stop saying how much fun they had or how good the food was, and they keep bringing up how enjoyable the whole event was as a whole because of the unique set-up and the trendy, upbeat atmosphere. If you have your wedding here, you will NOT be disappointed! <3 :)
Len, Dean, and their entire staff will go out of their way to make your wedding a day all will remember. Our guests are still raving about the beautiful venue, delicious food, and outstanding service. We couldn't have been happier about the personalized attention for our wedding.
WOW! My husband & I had our reception at Cefalo's on June 18, 2016 & we are still hearing our guests rave about the venue! The food was AMAZING, the staff was very friendly and helpful & the venue itself is really unique & spectacular. We had about 140 guests & had no problem having enough room for everyone. Len was so easy to work with & made our day so fantastic! He was very flexible & even allowed us to keep the party going for an extra half an hour! Thank you so much to the entire staff at Cefalo's. You helped us create a perfect & memorable wedding day we'll never forget!!
My husband and I recently held our reception at Cefalo's, and it was amazing! Our guests raved about how beautiful and unique the venue is and about how delicious the food was. The venue was also perfect for our live music. We knew from the start that we were in good hands with Len Cefalo - he helped us to focus on the decisions we needed to make and he made great suggestions when we were uncertain. Len was also very gracious to our guests that night, and the staff was professional and friendly. The event was so well-organized that not one problem arose that night. We were able to just enjoy ourselves and have fun with our friends and family without worry.
We held our wedding reception at Cefalo's on May 3, 2014 and we couldn't have been happier! It was the perfect day that we had planned for and hoped for! The owner, Len, was wonderful and patient with us throughout the planning process and on our wedding day the team executed perfectly!
The venue is unique, and beautiful which is exactly what we wanted. We loved that our guests weren't sitting at the same table, in the same room all night long. We've since received many, many compliments about the food, the service and the overall venue.
I would absolutely recommend Cefalo's for your wedding reception! Thank you Len and the whole staff!
Thank you, Cefalo's, for a fabulous rehearsal dinner. The room was arranged perfectly, they set up a screen and projector for a slideshow, the food was FANTASTIC (the crab cakes were amazing), and made sure that everyone was well taken care of. On such an emotional and exciting night, it was so nice to not have to worry about anything else and to be able to enjoy the moment.
If your search has brought you to Cefalo’s Banquet and Event Center in Carnegie, PA, look no further. My wife and I were searching for a venue which would be able to accommodate our ceremony, our dinner after and our reception afterwards, all in one location. We count ourselves very lucky to have fallen upon Cefalo’s in Carnegie, very conveniently located just minutes off the Carnegie exit of I-79. We concluded that Cefalo’s was the place for us and just celebrated our wedding there on November 3, 2012.
We were having something of a non-traditional ceremony and reception, and Mr. Len Cefalo (the owner) was very friendly and accommodating throughout the entire process, making our wedding planning considerably easier. First, he provided us with a wide and varied menu from which to choose, guiding us in our selection of those items which are the most popular from his menu. During the wedding ceremony, our guests commented upon the beauty of the facility itself (a former church, which makes things nice for those who desire a traditional setting, with a somewhat different flair…the seating is club style, with tables and comfortable chairs instead of church pews; all else remains with the traditional style and appeal of a church, i.e. stained glass, etc.).
Once the ceremony was over, our guests couldn’t stop raving about the quality of service, friendliness of the staff and many of guests commented that the food was the best they had ever had at a wedding! (Word to the wise, the crab cakes were spectacular and many of our guests noted that the New York Strip was the best they had ever had!). Dean Cefalo, co-owner and chef, prepares the highest quality hors d’ouerves and main dishes which your guests will be raving about forever.
So if you are searching for a venue site which is suitable for any occasion, whether it be a wedding, a business meeting or whatever your needs may be, look no further than Cefalo’s in Carnegie. Their staff if absolutely the most helpful I have ever experienced. Len’s consultations were outstandingly professional, and courtesies were extended to us with every avenue, down to the last detail, making it a very special day for the both of us. The setting is absolutely beautiful, with quality that will not be surpassed.
Sincerely,

My daughter and I were just thrilled with the wedding reception at Cefalo's. Len, the owner and banquet person gave us that personal touch we so wanted. All of our guests commented on the food which was fabulous and the nightclub was so different from any wedding reception I've ever been. As a wedding photographer for some years, I've seen it all and I didn't want the traditonal reception. My favorite was the balcony where the wedding party arrived to drinks and snacks and then was introduced to the crowd below. Our photographer took a photo from there and we used it for our thank you cards, a suggestion from Len. If you are looking for a hassle free, unique and beautiful venue, Cafalo's is the place to go. Thanks to Len and his patience, he took care of everything so we could relax and enjoy. My daughter called the day after the wedding and we both agreed it was perfect in every way, we are still getting compliments from friends and family.
My wedding at Cefalo's was amazing. I knew I wanted a unique venue, and I found just what I was looking for the minute I walked into Cefalo's. The lounge is grand yet comfortable and has a great ambiance with the stained glass windows, pillars, and tall ceilings. The dining room is classic and elegant.
Everyone raved about the food, too! It was delicious and the value is fantastic, unlike a lot of other places in the wedding industry that overcharge for poor quality.
The Cefalo family was great in listening to our wishes and helping us to achieve our vision and we had a perfect wedding.
Len and the Cefalo's crew truly made our wedding day the "fairytale" that we always imagined. The food was perfect, the service was amazing, and the ambiance of the venue is just wondeful. So many of our guests have told us that they have never had so much fun at a wedding! Although we're a little biased, neither have we!
Beautiful facilities, delicious food, extremely personable and helpful staff. Owner helped us with every step and aspect of our wedding day!
