Barrister Gardens Reviews

Malik at barrister gardens did a great job. He was very professional and great help throughout the whole process. He did a phenomenal job on the wedding day. We did not hire a wedding coordinator and Malik stepped in and helped whenever he could make us not worry about anything in regards to the hall.

I truly believe choosing Barrister Gardens was the best choice for us and am so thankful for their stuff and their administration to work out all the details.
they even were able to accommodate vegetarian options for more than 100 attendees out of 300.

Great job Barrister Gardens and Malik.

Barrister Gardens was a great choice for our reception! The banquet hall was renovated earlier this year, so it has a sleek and modern look now. The lobby is stunning and the ballrooms have bright white walls and floors, which makes it very easy to create any look you want. The bar has been modernized as well and is pretty large, so there were no long bar lines or congestion around the bar area all night. I worked with Alexis, the owner’s daughter, to book the first two ballrooms for my wedding. I had enough room for 185 guests, a vendor table, photo booth, gift table, sweets table, cake table, and a sweetheart table on a platform with plenty of room for guests to move around. Alexis is very helpful and flexible. It was easy to change things up until the date the final count was due and I even talked to the chef for an hour as he helped me understand the best menu options for what I was trying to achieve. I selected NY strip steak for my beef option, Chicken Marsala for my chicken option, garden salad with house dressing, and bow tie pasta with garlic and olive oil. You also get a full bar for the entire 6 hours. You can upgrade the bar, but we went with the standard full bar and guests were happy. Everyone said the food was really good and the servers were organized and responsive. The room looked amazing and Alexis checked on us periodically throughout the night (we also had our own day of coordinator). If you are lookin for a modern venue, with reasonable prices, good food, and the flexibility to create your own unique vision, Barrister Gardens is a great choice! The only two areas I would recommend for improvement are the approach to the food tasting and providing steak knives if the NY strip steak option is selected. My tasting was not until two weeks before my wedding and I had to call to inquire about it. Waiting until that close to the wedding date may be too stressful for some brides. Scheduling the tasting soon after the deposit is made would allow couples to finalize their menus, include specific entrees in their invitations, and order their menus cards earlier. With regards to the steak knives, I am not sure If it was just an oversight, but none of the guests had them for their steak. I had to ask one of the servers to bring my husband a steak knife. The server was prompt and brought one right away for my husband, but the guests just had their regular knives to use on the steak. It didn’t stop anyone from eating the steak, but if you opt for the NY strip steak option, make sure you request for all guests who select the steak option to also have steak knives. Overall, it was still a great venue and Alexis was awesome to work with.

The staff was very nice! Being an older first time bride this venue is just what I was looking for!

Oh my goodness! This venue was everything I hoped for and more. The venue is gorgeous, the staff was so professional. I called the ladies in the office almost weekly, if not daily. They addressed all my questions and concerns. I met with the site manager to go over the layout and he shared some great advice. The staff the day of the wedding were the best. They were so accommodating and conveyed exceptional customer service. I will definitely be back!

Great food!! And service was very accommodating! They will have a bridal suite soon too! Overall I wouldn't have had my ceremony and reception anywhere else! By far they best price around and its beautiful!

My reception is going to be at Barrister Gardens. They were flexible about my date and time. The food was great and the staff were professional. I would recommend this venue.

The food and service during our reception was amazing. We had the best staff that night. We just got married on 03/18/2016 and was so much better then I could have thought.

Peggy and Malid have both been great to work with as well as all other staff that I have been in contact with. My wedding is coming very soon, just about 3 weeks away. I just recently went to finalized the menu and and the food was amazing! I was shown different floor plans available as well as detailed overview of the schedule of each moment. I've been able to just pop in w/o appt just to make a payment or discuss my reception details. So far so good with BG. I'm just so excited and can hardly wait to the big day. I'm confident that everyone in attendance will be in aww of Barrister Gardens, I must say it has been beautifully design and gorgeous chandeliers. I'll check back

I've used barrister gardens for many personal events and the food selection is excellent! The food is delicious, the service is professional and friendly!
Recently barrister gardens donated a meal for our teacher appreciation week and EVERYBODY absolutely loved it!
Barrister Gardens provided such delicious food and is definitely a 5 star banquet hall! Highly recommend to all!

Barrister Gardens was by far the most amazing hall to work with and EXTREMELY reasonable in price. They worked with us and our needs and the food is phenomenal. All of our guests were raving about the food and the venue. Couldn't be happier!

Having a wedding at the barrister gardens was outstanding. Food and service was perfect. The lobby and ballrooms were beautiful. I want to thank the barrister gardens for making it a perfect night that we will always remember.

I was the maid of honor at my sisters wedding at barrister gardens. i went with her to every appointment so i have a few things to say about the place and it's staff. the office person Peggy was just great. she helped us plan every detail of how the night would go. the day of the wedding we took pics on the winding staircase which was so cool! the food was also phenomenal! joan the bathroom attendant was so nice and personal. i don't know how this place could get any negative reviews as our night went FANTASTIC! when i get married i will definitely look into barrister again for my reception.

I had my wedding at Barrister Gardens 12/14/12. I first met with the owner Jimmy who is extremely personable. He worked with us to provide an exceptional price for my 500 guests. On my wedding date the hall was beautiful. The food was great. Mine and my husbands filet was cooked perfectly! The staff were so helpful. My family was so happy with the way everything turned out and so am I. Thank you Barrister Gardens!

i want to thank linda and peggy and all management at the barrister gardens. i had over 500 people at my wedding. the food was delicious, and the service was the best. i also want to thank the chefs for an outstanding job.

Its been remodeled since our last time here. The manager Linda helped us emmensely from the time we walked in to book, to the second our wedding ended. The experience was perfect. Thanks Linda and ber staff for doing such a wonderful job. Not one thing went wrong.

I love this place and I recommend it to all my friends and family.

The food was EXCELLENT. The flaming rib, fabulous. The sweet table, beautiful. The service was the best and everything went smooth. The place was very clean. Im planning my baby shower there for 2013.

I had my reception there June 10,2012 and I would like to take the time out to express how wonderful the food,sevice and your staff were. I was afraid after reading the comments that my day would not go as planned. My guest enjoyed the food saying how awesome it tasted. The service was so professional and courtesy
through the entire affair. I can honestly say that Malik made sure everything was perfect and attentive to all our needs.If anyone is looking to use The Barristers Garden I would highly recommmend.

THANK You again

The hall was beautiful. Provided just what we needed. The guests were astonished! I recommend it to everyone!

This place has the best food! And it's decor is magnificent.

Everyone was very accommodating and very helpful during the whole process. Have NO complaints about the food and or the venue. Malec also really helped make sure everything was taken care of for the day and day before. Had one hick up when setting up on Friday but as soon as he got there he made it right ;) Would highly recommend looking at this beautiful venue !

When meeting with the ladies at barrister gardens we were welcomed instantly, they were very flexible with us on many things giving us a better look at a great budget,

We dealt primarily with Rita during our planning process and she was so sweet and accommodating. The venue looks absolutely gorgeous since their renovation and we heard so many compliments on how beautiful it was. There was a thunderstorm during our outdoor ceremony causing us to come to Barrister a few hours earlier than planned and Rita was so kind to let us take shelter there and clean up before our pictures were to be taken. The food was awesome, the bartender was a ROCKSTAR and the servers packed us up so much food which was totally unexpected but much appreciated. My only complaint is that once the reception began, we couldn't locate someone who could assist with the temperature of the room so it did get quite hot and a lot of guests were sitting outside but other than that, (to be fair, there was also another wedding going on so it's possible that could have been tending to them) I'd recommend them to anyone!

I've never had to rent a hall before, but if I must say, I think this is how they should all treat their clients! I was treated well all through the process. I didn't like that there were two other weddings going on the same day, but I guess that's what you get when you book somewhere this large, with 4 separate rooms. The food was good for what I like to call "hall food" nothing special, but for the price, not bad! I would use them for other events.

We had a GREAT experience with having our reception at Barrister. Peggy was absolutely wonderful to work with, was always available to answer questions, and gave me no problem making changes. Other vendors were able to get in the room early enough to get all set up without having to rush, and had no problems. Food was excellent- everyone complimented the cheesy mashed potatoes! :) Only issue was that the air went out, for a brief time, but they were right on top of it, and got it working pretty quick.
Overall, we were very pleased with our experience at Barrister Gardens!
