Percy Diner
70's Inspired Diner - Book Your Next Event @ Percy
Holds ceremonies and receptions
Percy could not have been a more perfect location for our celebration. We got married at Lilah right across the street and had our Private After Party and Bridal Pictures at Percy.
Working with Seth (owner) and their events coordinator Sabina was incredible! Among other things we experienced clear communication, friendly and accommodating planning and overall exceptional service from the whole team.
At the beginning of our process, we were able to set up a meeting with both the owner and events coordinator to plan our night, they were willing to close the restaurant an hour early and stay open late for us which was exactly what we had dreamed of. Living in the neighborhood; our ideal night was for everyone to stay close by, walk between venue and after party and enjoy amazing drinks, food and not have to worry about anything.
On the day of; we were able to use the Sound Lounge for Bridal Party Pictures, the kitchen and bar had snacks and drinks waiting for us and we didn't have to worry about a thing. Percy staff handled everything for us!
The after party couldn't have been better, we worked with Percy's chef Chris to craft a menu that would be easy to handle late night and feed all our guests. We were able to make 'mini' versions of some of our favorite bites and worked with the bar to make a custom drink menu to keep the drinks flowing and help the bar handle and influx of late-night guests.
The Sound Lounge hosted the late-night vibes and Cyrus (sound manager) was also helpful, flexible and showed us how to use the mixing boards.
Overall, we couldn't have imagined a more ideal team to work with and more perfect location. We would 100% recommend Percy to any friends and family. We are patiently waiting for the next opportunity to host another event at Percy
We hosted our wedding at Percy on May 9th and, as a new restaurant when we first committed to this, we were taking a gamble... and I am SO THRILLED we did. I don't have enough positive words to describe Seth (the owner), Sabina, Chef, the entire Percy team, the vibes, food, etc, but I will try.
From the start, Seth was always communicative and willing to ease my worries at literally any point in the process. We were able to tailor the night to exactly how we wanted it, and they were incredibly accommodating for all of our requests.
The night itself flowed perfectly, and the team at Percy put beautiful touches on the night (like taking our invite/signage and using it as the template menus and food labels to make everything cohesive, or making a late night french fry tower!).
Beyond the perfect vibes, ease on our part, and flow of the night, the food was INCREDIBLE. The Percy burger, caesar salad, and french toast sticks being the highlights and raved about by guests even weeks after. My dad even ordered the french toast sticks for breakfast the following day, and my mom keeps asking when we can go back to order the burger again.
If you are questioning whether or not to have an event here, don't. Just do it. You won't regret it.
