Sam did a wonderful job helping us for our wedding day! She went above and beyond with decorations and if there were any issues she would let me know. Also, this venue is very reasonably priced if you are looking for an affordable wedding. The biggest plus is the food is excellent! If you are on a hunt for a venue that has good food and is affordable, this is a place to have for a wedding! The staff were great too. Thank you so much Sam!
This venue was absolutely amazing for all we needed the entire night. From schedule flexibility to amazing set up and tear down the crew at Gambitta’s couldn’t have been more amazing. SO thankful we found this gem of a venue to hold both our ceremony and reception needs for a 190 guest wedding.
We loved having our wedding at Gambitta's, it was a great time! Sam was easy to work with and always available to answer all our questions and help out. We were able to set up our decorations before the day of the wedding which turned out awesome. Our food was amazing from the appetizers to the main course and we heard plenty of complements on it. The bar tenders were very nice and professional. The venue was spacious for our 150 guests. Overall would choose this location again for our wedding.
Any questions?
Sam was so helpful and amazing to work with. I had 200 questions and she went above and beyond to make sure I had the wedding I dreamt of. The whole staff was phenomenal. I received compliments all night on the venue. I would highly recommend Gambittas for any party needs!
I would rate gambittas 15/10 if I could! From the minute I contacted Sam about viewing her family’s hall until going home on that Saturday night after my wedding reception—my experience was amazing. The hall is absolutely perfect for a wedding, there is only one hall, only one wedding at a time unlike other places that had multiple halls that rent out multiple weddings on one night. Everything about planning this was super easy any questions I had were answered quickly I have absolutely zero complaints about the experience I was given by Gambittas. The food was amazing-you have tons of choices to choose from. They throw a little taste testing party that allows you to test the food before your event. They offer a full bar services with bartenders included in the perfect layout where the bar is just in a view of the dance floor. There’s a little DJ booth stage right off the HUGE dance floor that fits perfectly with a wedding atmosphere. Sam even recommended some DJs and photographers that we ended up going with a Dj service she recommended that were awesome. I cannot give enough compliments on this evening and the experience we had here! Thanks
We hosted our daughter's wedding reception at Gambitta's, and it was all we had hoped for and more. The venue is beautiful and very clean. Food was great and our guests raved about it. They did all the centerpiece and favor set up for us - we just dropped everything off and they took care of the rest. Sam was great to work with and was always quick to get back to us to answer questions. If you are looking for a nice venue, good food, and good value for your money, this place is it.
This review comes straight from the heart.
We got married 2 weeks ago and had our reception here. Just an amazing place! Planning our venue with them was such a pleasure. They did everything perfectly from the best food ever to the cleanliness of the facitily. What a class act is all we can say. Every time I had questions up until the day of my wedding they responded immediately which was amazing. All of my guests were so impressed with this venue.
We had a wonderful reception at the party center. They were very accommodating and the service was excellent. We had multiple guest compliment on how great the food was. Everyone had a great time! I highly recommend them!
We absolutely LOVE Gambitta's! Sam is so nice and professional, everything went smoothly, and the food was amazing!!
We loved working with Gambittas for our reception. Sam was amazing to work with and was so helpful throughout the entire process. She responded quickly to all of our questions. We received so many compliments on the food and the bar service. I would highly recommend them to anyone.
Gambitta's is the spot for any wedding! Sam was no nice and easy to work with. The hall was gorgeous! This venue lived up to every expectaiton and more. Our wedding reception was perfect and so stress free ! Thank you Gambittas!
Gambitta's Party Center was absolutely amazing! The food was excellent and all the guests were raving about it. They were extremely pleasant to deal with and let us do what we wanted with the place! The service was exceptional
The food was excellent, the staff was extremely helpful, and everything went smoothly. You absolutely cannot beat their pricing and their attention to detail.
This was the first reception hall we looked at when we were searching. We ended up going with them. The decor is VERY neutral, so you can decorate how you want. There was more than enough room for 165 guests. Ruth, Sam, Joe and the rest of the Gambitta's staff worked with us SO nicely!!! They were very prompt with call backs and set up the reception hall how we wanted it! They even cooked special meals for our guests with food allergies as well as our vegan guest. We appreciate their hard work and will definitely recommend this hall to everyone who asks me! For the price, you CANNOT go wrong!! :)
Fantastic job. Food and staff were amazing
For anyone getting married in the North East Ohio area and are in need of a TOP NOTCH reception hall, look no further than Gambitta's.
They bent over backwards to help my husband and I, who were VERY inexperienced with the whole "wedding" thing. But everyone at Gambitta's made the planning so easy. They were always available to answer all of our questions (no matter how silly or off the wall), and were extremely patient with us even afer we changed our theme 3 times!
The food was beyond excellent as well. We actually struggled with picking our menu! In terms of the pricing, they were exceptionally competitive and offered us advice on some cost cutting short cuts.
The day before the wedding, Gambitta's made sure they had someone there to help us with the pre-wedding decorations. I didnt even have to go out an buy full center pieces. They have beautiful white centerpieces and tall glass vase centerpieces already made and brides can personalize them (the glass vase ones) and are able to use them at no extra cost. All we had to do was put up some of the ceiling decor and a few odds and ends, then they took care of the rest!
That night, the waitresses/waiters were friendly and kept stopping to congratulate us and compliment us on the decorations and some of the little personalized touches we'd used. Sam, the lovely girl that was there the night of the wedding to make sure it all went smooth, was always within helping distance too and made sure to check in with us that everything was going perfectly.
I didnt have to worry about a thing that night. My husband and I's wedding day was perfect from start to finish and Gambitta's played a big role in making our day perfection, right down to the "Congratulations Stephanie and Patrick" sign out front.
We are planning on using them again for my parents and his parents 50th wedding anniversary parties.
Give them a call! I promise you will not be disappointed!
We used Gambitta's Party Center for our wedding reception and we are so happy with it. I want everyone to know how amazing they are. The staff is some of the best people to ever work with, and so kind and easy to get a hold of as well as professional! My husband and I were waited on hand and foot and everyone working there asked if we needed anything at all. The decor was clean and simple with a beautiful bar and good sized dance floor. Their prices are more than fair and allowed for a small or large party. And now to the amazing, amazing food. It has been a week since my wedding and everyone keeps coming up to me to tell me how amazing and wonderful the food was, and how they kept going back for more. Anyone in Northeast Ohio should give them a call. I know we still plan on using them to cater any future parties.
This is a great venue. The food is fantastic- my guests raved about it. The price is fantastic too. It is all inclusive - food (salad, main dishes, sides, & pastry) no cake cutting & boxing fee, no cork fee for champagne toast, centerpieces, police officer, ect. The staff was wonderful & very easy to work with also. I highly recommend Gambitta's!!
Joe listened to all the details we wanted and executed them! The food was excellent and there were no issues at the reception. We paid per head, and it included food, drinks, alcohol, and a dessert bar. Alcohol was optional, and we also added in appetizers. Ended up paying $44 pp for everything! Im only giving 4 stars because when we arrived at 4pm (reception to start at 430pm), things were not completely set-up and ready to go yet.
