We couldn't have asked for a better venue for our intimate beach wedding and reception. The Reef is a rare gem for its gorgeous location, reasonable pricing, and great food. We fit 57 people comfortable although the banquet space can hold up to around 70. Danielle, the venue coordinator, was very helpful throughout the whole process.
We enjoyed the food and service during our reception at The Reef. The location and view are gorgeous!
I could not be happier with everything The Reef did to make my wedding amazing. The service was exceptional and they went far above and beyond my expectations. There was horrible Nor'Easter that blew in the morning of my wedding and we had to make a decision at the last minute to move the ceremony inside. Danielle and all of the staff sprang into action, closing a second dining room, moving tables and chairs, and setting up an aisle and arbor for us to conduct the ceremony! Words cannot express how thankful we are to The Reef for doing everything they could to put us at ease! THANK YOU SO MUCH!! Also, the food was amazing and the service was top notch!
This is where my fiancé and I had our first date, so when we found out they host wedding receptions it was a no brainer! Angie is great to work with and extremely accommodating to any bride's needs, and the food is fantastic (all of our guests were commenting on how great the meal was)! Overall, very satisfied!!!
I had my wedding ceremony and reception at the Reef restaurant. Angie was great and accomodated all of our requests as we incorporated two cultures in our wedding (Persian/American). Guests loved the food and atmosphere. Everyone has been saying it was one of the best weddings they had ever been to. This is a great location to do the ceremony/reception all in one place in a beautiful and intimate setting.
Can't beat the location or price! There was a snafu the day of with trying to get in to decorate but otherwise but that was my only complaint.
i was ripped off! after i gave a deposit they kept changing prices... on my wedding day the food did not look or taste the was it did when we had the food tasting... stay away!!
The reef did a great job. Personalizes menu for our night. Food was amazing and the staff was great! Everyone enjoyed themselves.
My fiance & I found The Reef after deciding to have our ceremony at Castle Otttis just down the road. We found this beautiful beachfront restaurant immediately after. I loved the view and the extensive seafood menu. We did shop around a bit only to decide on having our reception here. The reception coordinator worked with us continually for nearly a year as we planned every detail of our reception. The restaurant allowed us numerous visits to be in the space since we were planning from out of state and even a menu tasting. Joyce's patience and willingness to create the perfect wedding reception for us made our day unforgettable!
Location location location!!!
The view was breath taking. We had eaten there several times before and the food was consistently well prepared.;The reception manager changed hands several times in the year between booking the site and our reception. When I first arrived to decorate in the morning for an evening reception the menu was completely wrong because they had confused my reception with another one they had going on at the same time on the same day something they had promised would not happen from the beginning. The manager quickly corrected the menu but it wasn't served exactly as stated on the menu(a coconut sauce instead of being served on a bed of fried plantains) and they never served the pies I had brought in. The cocktails were not ready to go at the appropriate time as well.
