Villa Penna Reviews

Reviewed On 9/21/2021 by Sabrina S
I rarely write negative reviews but after having the experience I did with Penna’s, I had to say something. We had scheduled a wedding date for the summer of 2020 back in the fall of 2019. Once COVID hit we were unsure leading up to spring/summ...
er 2020 if the reception would happen at all but then things started to open up again which led to a meeting with Penna’s, specifically Mary Lou, to go over any Covid Guidelines Penna’s had along with easing any fears I had. What happened was the complete opposite. Back when we had this meeting a lot was still unknown with COVID, there were no vaccines, technically weddings weren’t even suppose to operate indoors but I think Penna’s was getting around this initially with it being a “restaurant,” so my fears for my elderly family and making sure if they chose to come to my wedding weren’t unfounded since so little was known and it was very new still. Instead of easing fears, I got a person who could not care less about me, my family or honestly my money, given the way I was spoken too. I was called the “worst bride” she ever met for asking if I could possibly have tables of 6 or 8 instead of the typical 10 or 12. She did not care about any restrictions or keeping her guests safe. What I asked wasn’t unreasonable- I wasn’t asking to get multiple rooms or more or less staff or anything like that. Just to make table numbers smaller and give me some sense and peace of mind that you cared about my guests. I was also told by her staff prior to the meeting that there would be no dancing or music. When I tried asking about that at the meeting she constantly talked over me, would barely let me get a question in and said not to listen to her own staff, that there were zero restrictions on music or guest count or anything. I got berated for asking about safety measures, being “reassured” they wouldn’t get in trouble by police because they “knew” them, only for Penna’s to call me a month later and say they had to shut down due to the restrictions they were so blatantly ignoring. Since then, I’ve had multiple friends from both my side and my husband’s side that have had similar experiences with Penna’s. One actually did end up switching his whole reception to a different venue because his experience with Penna’s was that bad. I honestly used to love going to Penna’s for events and for their food but after this experience I wouldn’t want to attend even as a guest. If you are considering Penna’s as a venue for your event, I truly implore you to find somewhere else unless you want to get torn down and treated like you and your guests are worth less than nothing. I would never do business with them again.

My fiancee and I had spoken to Villa Penna several times via email and scheduled a tour. At minimum were going to host our reception there but possibly the ceremony as well. We arrived today at 9:52 for our 10 am appointment and waited, as the ...
doors were locked, on an outside bench by the door. A woman turned into the parking lot near us speeding as though she was late for an appointment, so we figured she was who we were meeting with. We waited but no one came. By 10:08 I tried phoning only to get an after hours message. I also wrote an email saying perhaps we were at the wrong door but crickets. By 10:15 we drove to the back where her car and another was present but couldn't enter there either so we left. It's now 2 hours and 43 minutes after our appointment and there's still crickets. Looking at other reviews I believe the woman saw two people of color and decided they didn't want to service us. My fiancee and I are middle age professionals who came prepared to conduct a finanical transaction today. I'm recovering from a major surgery yet delayed my recovery to keep my appointment for a venue we were excited about but I know why we were ignored and will take our business elsewhere. If you are a person of color don't even waste your time here or at their sister property.

to take questions, the venue was super lax about policies - not to mention no 21%+ service charge or room fee, included coat check and valet. George was available to explain the preparation of the food and give advice on substitutions. They happily accommodated guests with dietary needs and allergies. The food was hands down the best wedding food I've had, it was a true Italian meal. We did family style and my guests were blown away with the precision of the timing as well as the quality of each dish. The venue itself has gone through extensive renovations and is beautiful. I've been to more expensive venues that don't hold a candle to what George has done with the place. They really helped make my reception a wedding people are using as a baseline to compare theirs to.

we received. I tend to hold very high standards for customer service and Villa Penna exceeded all of my expectations. The office staff who help you prior to the wedding are efficient, timely, and respectful. When my husband and I arrived at the hall we were greeted by the head caterer who stated that if needed anything throughout the night to let her know and she would take care of it. There were plenty of servers to ensure that all of our guests were served in a timely and appropriate manner. The servers were also professional and polite. My husband and I had our own personal server, but because we were speaking with our guests through the night we barely had time to eat anything. Our server came up to us at the end of the evening and told us that because she saw we hadn't had time to eat, she had packed us to go containers of all the food. When the reception was over, our linen company had not yet arrived to pick up the linens and so I began taking them down myself. The head caterer insisted that I stop and said that she and the other workers would take care of it. Even when I told her that felt badly because it wasn't her job, she said that she didn't mind and didn't want me working on my wedding night. I am so happy that we used Villa Penna's as our reception hall. Our guests couldn't get over the delicious food, and the entire night went smoothly without any worries. Villa Penna also has a great relationship with flower shops, cake bakeries, linen companies- which we learned when visiting with these other vendors! Compared to other places that we visited, Villa Penna offered much more for a lesser price.

id catering, and was surprised to find out they did!!! The only drawback is that they don't deliver. But since we were renting a passenger van, I had one of the ushers swing by and pick the food up. It was ready when he got there, and they helped carry everything out to the van. The food was warm, and ready to go! I would say since we had two meats and expected 150 people their trays actually carried more food than required as they come only in 50-person increments. We had ordered roast beef for 150 and chicken for 150 (as well as salad, new potatoes, mostaccioli, and garlic bread--each for 150). There was SO much salad left over, and we were actually boxing up food to send home with guests. I wouldn't have changed a thing though, because everything they cooked was great! Also, we had a few Gluten and Dairy-Allergic guests, and they were able to make a couple special pasta dishes for those guests, which made me feel good we could accommodate their needs.
