Antun’s Catering Hall Review From start to finish, our experience at Antun’s Catering Hall was nothing short of exceptional. Kemi, the banquet consultant, provided outstanding service, ensuring every detail was addressed with care and professionalism. The food selection was delicious and catered to everyone’s tastes, setting the tone for a wonderful evening. The energy on the dance floor never faltered, thanks to nonstop music that kept the party alive. Our Maitre D, Randy, went above and beyond to ensure top-notch attention throughout the event, making everyone feel special. Adding a personal touch, Antun’s owner, Mickey, stopped by to introduce himself and offered his assistance, showing genuine care for our experience. The young waitstaff’s attentiveness and the beautifully decorated room created an atmosphere of luxury, making all attendees feel like VIPs. This combination of excellent service, great food, and a vibrant ambiance made our union holiday event the best five hours we’ve ever spent with coworkers. Highly recommend Antun’s for any special occasion!

Phenomenal Venue and a great staff. Richie, the Maî·tre d has to be the best there is. Antun's is the home of The KCOBA USA Reunion Dinner, now called Gala, and Richie has been consistently amazing for about 2 decades now. Yes, two decades - or there about! The newly renovated space took everything up a couple notches. The new projectors and screens make for a great video presentation as it did for ACB Celebration of Life Reception on January 17, 2025. I could go on ... the food - delightful! So said many of our guest as recent as the ACB reception on 1/17. KCOBA USA is already booked for Saturday, May 3, 2025. Check em out!

Even though I didn't have my own wedding here, I had the opportunity to photograph a wedding at this venue last weekend. I was thoroughly impressed. The staff, especially the owner and our maître d' Jodie, went above and beyond to make the day special. Their attention to detail and care was evident in every aspect of the day. Working with them was an absolute pleasure and I couldn't have asked for a better team. The food was also great, adding to the overall wonderful experience!

This review is a little late but I could not let the year end without writing it. My husband and I had a small 50th Wedding Anniversary party at Antun's in August. It was the perfect venue for us. We had attended several affairs at Antun's over the past few decades and always enjoyed the food, appreciated the decor and the fact that it was located across from the Long Island Railroad so it was convenient for those guest who did not drive. Additionally, all the celebrations were always fun! We wanted fun and we got fun! The staff was absolute great. Ashley worked with us to plan our party. She was so informative and supportive that I knew we were in good hands and were able to relax. All the staff that worked the party were attentive, professional, efficient and nice. Special thanks to the Maitre d and his assistant. They ensured that everything ran smoothly and they were nice guys. Bravo Antun's for a great team and thank you for doing your part to ensure that we had a wonderful celebration.

We wish to thank Antun's for the beautiful and well managed celebration they hosted for us. We return to Antun's because in our opinion they are the best in their field. The Matrae D we had was generous and very helpful in making sure we had a great affair.

I had my wedding there June 10th, it was a beautiful. The Bridal Attendant was awesome making sure we had everything we needed and requested. I have received many compliments about the food for the cocktail hour and dinner. We loved the Viennese table and so did our guest. Thank you so much for making our day a memorable experience us and our guest that will last a lifetime. 🤗

An extravagant event hosted by the local chapter of Delta Sigma Theta, Inc. I attended the event with my family and a good time was had by all! Antun's is a great reception hall that has been around since 1946. Upon entering the venue you could already hear the music and the DJ was pumped up! The event was a masquerade ball with attendees wearing beautiful gowns and men wearing their Sunday best. Each table brought their own food and beverages. The event went from 9 to 2 am. I always have a good time at Antun's and look forward to going there again soon!

Second Year that we have held our Alumni Reunion Dinner at Antun's and I could not be happier. We certainly recommend Antun's for their courteous, professional approach in planning the affair and the service provided at our event was excellent. A review, I received from our Alumni was, "Cocktail hour apps and drinks and sit down meal were Top Shelf." Sound system was excellent for over 300 people and the room size was perfect. I can not speak highly enough for the communications and from our Concierge Richie and the Staff working the event. They accommodated our requests and made meaningful suggestions to enhance our evening. See You again in 2025 Antun's. Thank You for another excellent event for Power Memorial Alumni and Guest

I attend 2/3 events at Antun's annually. The place is beautiful, the staff is courteous and pleasant. The food is also great. The rooms are big enough to accommodate big parties, without being on top of each other. The ambiance is great. It's great to have reception hall in this area of Queens.

Lovely venue with several entertaining spaces in one. Great audio and bathrooms. The staff was very attentive and the food was good as well. We had a Caribbean dinner and it was great.

This was my first time at this Banquet Hall. The occasion was my 20th High School Reunion (really 21st). The venue had a couple of events going on that night and upon entry we were directed where to go. We had the upstairs area, which is the smaller of the areas. The space was a pretty good size, but actually it seemed we didn't have enough chairs. The staff here was friendly and the bartender was also. He was working by himself and it was a bit of wait, but that was understandable as nobody was there with him. They had decent offerings buffet style for dinner but I only ate the roasted potatoes and platanos. Overall, we had a wonderful experience here and appreciated the friendly staff. They also have ample parking.

This event space in the heart of Queens Village is a surprise for new guests like us. Our function hall is spacious. I love the idea that they had the cocktail hour on same main hall then turned the space to a dance floor. What a splendid idea, less guests movement, price and time saver move. The staff are very friendly, accommodating, attentive and efficient. Food is descent. The hall is marvelous, the decors are eye catching. There is substantial parking space. A good turn out of the event as we were part of the last group who left the venue. Seems like that the organizer enjoyed the full service of the catering venue. A recommended place.

This is my first time to attend an event at this venue and I am pleasantly delighted. We attended a gala at this locale, everything looks classy and luxurious. Employees are very accommodating, attentive and courteous, service was quick and efficient , very professional. Food was decent, the meat that they served was tender and flavorful, but not really exceptional. Restrooms were very clean. Table set-up was neat, plates and utensils were spotless. Their parking area was substantial enough to hold a large amount of cars which makes it very convenient. In summation, my experience in this event/party venue was decent, comfortable and satisfying.

Had the pleasure of visiting Antuns the other day for a New Year's Eve luncheon..The food was delicious. The music was amazing and the decor was also beautiful as well. I took my main course food to go. I did try the penne alla vodka while I was there which was divine . The salmon and the mashed potatoes and string beans were good also. I'd recommend this place The staff were very welcoming and also friendly..

Second time here for a family celebration. This time RANDY amd COURTNEY made this retirement celebration for my sister a special and memorable one! The venue was so nicely decorated and arranged to accommodate more than 100 co-workers, friends and family. Many thanks to the staff, ALPHA KAPPA ALPHA, 100 Women and the colleagues of MTA that made this night a fun and memorable event. Fun times and memories were made here again!

This is a every upscale event space in the heart of Queens Village. It is very spacious and they serve cultured food which I love. Came in for an office holiday party. The servers and wait staff were professional, accommodating and attentive. I been to Autuns before for my grandma's repass and they did a great job and was able to accommodate us on short notice as well. Will always use Autun's in the future.

The staff member are very polite and helpful. The problem with this establishment is the owner. He has no respect for his hardworking staff, neither does he respect renting clients. My family and I were in finalizing our event with a 5 years old. First issues, cake delivery triggered him yell and drop the F word multiple times. Next a dinner wear broke then the hostile work environment appeared. He yelled at the staff as if they were children " why don't you go through the kitchen like a normal person, everyone is in trouble, get in the kitchen all of you now". At the end of our meeting I looked out for him but didn't see him. An owner should reflect the standards of the establishment with respect to their staff and clients. If this was my first visit based on this moment we would have walked out. As a follow up, the owner did call the following day apologizing for his behavior stating it was not accepted for him to behave in such a manner. He also, stated he apologized to his staff members as well. I took his words in good faith that this was an isolated incident.

Antuns is a beautiful establishment. From what I am told they have made quite a few changes. It is clean and inviting and the organizers are proficient and professional. Jodi and Tiana were the two who assisted me. Jodi gave me a quick tour before the ceremony (which I was officiating). She assisted me in testing The microphone and showing me the arrangements for the brides entrance. I highly recommend this place!

Came here for my stepdads birthday party last night Old school, Italian fancy place. Separate parties/events were happening Staff was friendly and attentive. Food made here was definitely passable.

Such a beautiful place. Had a family celebration here. Was my second time visiting here. It is so festive and family friendly. The staff delivers A+ service. The food is delicious, drinks are wonderful. I can't speak for pricing as I was not the family member that paid. They have plenty of parking to accommodate your guests. The cost check is great, with a $1 charge, not bad.

Went to a Pre-Valentine's day cocktail party. All the employee's are very nice the Princess room we where in was beautiful (love the red tablecloths and rose on the table). When you first enter the room you are greeted w/ a glass of champagne. The cocktail party was buffet style the food was delicious (oxtails, pigeon peas & rice, glazed salmon w/ spinach, ribs, fried chicken, seafood salad, pasta salad, boneless braised beef, jerk chicken, fresh fruit, assorted cheeses). It was open bar and associated cakes and chocolate covered strawberries. I will definitely attend the next event they have.

Food is awful and has been the same menu for decades. Decor is dated and there is no ambience.

I was a guest of a baby shower. This place was very clean and comfortable. The service was very on top of the tables. The manager of the event I saw him walking around the All time during the event. Food was okay..

Cheesy old school over the top trying to be elegant but goes beyond and comes off as a stale wedding cake. To be fair? Most if not all catered affairs and their halls are cheesy, fake atmospheres. This one had the fake fountains, the ornate "marbled" effect in its detail and bathrooms, the semblance of elegance.... semblance is a fair word. All over Carpeting...with all we know about how impractical to have that in public spaces, hygiene wise, why do we still do it? Loads of unhealthy eats and drinks before during and after that you feel decadent and piggish enough to keep eating along with the rest. It's Americana at its best. They are a chain and so there are more of these around....

I had no idea that Antun's was hosting an outdoor brunch during the summer and fall months. This was a classy setting for my godmother's 60th birthday brunch. The outdoors is lovely and the set up is very nice. The staff were very kind and the food surprisingly (just being honest) was pretty good. We had appetizers and a main course and unlimited beverages according to our package. We brought our own dessert in to enjoy. I must not that the wings included in the appetizers were so good ! All in all it was a good time and if this is something that you think would be good for you before fall ends, go !

The service was slow. They seem to hire very young individuals who were not very catering to the clientele. Not much to say about the food. It was standard event hall food.

As someone who never dreamed of having a wedding ceremony/reception, Antun's made the process as smooth and stress free. In retrospect, they exceeded all of my expectations. A good time was had by all and it was a stress free experience for the bride and the groom. Michelle helped us to plan everything and reassured us every step of the way. Not having to stress and worry about every little thing was amazing. Michelle is experienced, personable, knowledgeable, and is amazing at what she does. Through the various meetings, calls, and emails, Michelle was patient and accomodating. Thank you Michelle! Keva was also kind, patient, and helpful. She worked with us to execute some last minute changes that made me very happy and she ended up making my week. Thank you Keva! Our wedding occurred during Hurricane/Tropical Storm Henri and the venue called us and reassured us several times that nothing was going to ruin our joyous occasion. Though we planned to have our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour outdoors in their beautiful courtyard, Antun's quickly shifted to an indoor ceremony and cocktail hour. Everything went smoothly and without any issue. All of the staff, from the maitre'D, to my bridal attendant, to the wait staff were all professional, patient, and fun! It felt like they were celebrating with us all while executing their roles with excellence. Additionally, Antun's was very accommodating with my food allergy. I am gluten free so our pasta bar included GF pasta, my meal was gluten free, and they they gave us the option of having a gluten free wedding cake! I opted to have a small gluten free cake for the cake cutting and it was delicious. I couldn't imagine having to pay different vendors for the kinds of services that we received at Antun's. I am glad that we used this venue.

Wedding Saturday August 20, 2022, noon ish. Everything was nice from beginning to end. We were escorted to the ceremony room which was very simple but, tasteful. We were then lead across the way to the cocktail hour where the food was hot, fresh, and delicious. It was set up in 2 stations and was replenished accordingly. Afterwards, we were directed to an adjacent room for the reception which was set up by Antuns and decorated by family. The teamwork between both made the dream work. The bread and salads came first and was well presented and fresh as well as palette cleansing Then, came the hot entrees of guests choice. Salmon was my choice... was a nice size piece with some seasoned rice and Broccoli. There was a beef entree and not sure what the other was but, the plates went back to the kitchen empty. The coffee was piping hot and the cake was fresh and delicious as well. Then, the Bride and Groom gifted us with a Dessert Buffet of Ice cream, flavored coffee, and varies Italian cakes, cookies, and Pastries. The staff at this event were on the younger side but, made us guests... feel welcome and they were friendly, approachable, helpful, and very courteous. I would definitely have events here and recommend to family and friends.

Last night was my mothers retirement after 54 years of working in the operating room as a nurse. First I want to say Randy was the most amazing person throughout the evening. He was very helpful and assisted us with any and everything that we needed. From minor things like spills on the table and covering the music until the DJ arrived, to larger things such as helping the DJ get the stuff upstairs and making sure my mother had her favorite drink. When I say, hands-down, Randy made sure this party operated so smooth and really ensured we all had the best time he really did. Another honorable mention would be Cassandra. Cassandra was helping out with the food and made sure I got some food at the end of the evening because I spent more time drinking than eating. Last, but certainly not least shout out to the bartender Steph. He was great all night. I would highly recommend coming here for any event, birthday party, baby shower etc. This is the place to do it. Aside from the immaculate experience we had it was very beautiful outside, as well as the inside. I really didn't take any pictures before the party got going, but check out their website and definitely go here because it was amazing.

I went here last weekend for my father's banquet for the fire department he had worked for. The venue looks a little bit old on the inside, it could use more modern decorations to look more appealing. The service was good, there was a bunch of friendly servers walking around refilling water as needed and bringing appetizers around asking if anyone wanted any. All of them had a smile on their face. The buffet had a large variety of food, including pastas, salads, ribs, turkey, cheese, crackers, and some seafood. My review is based off of the few foods that I tried, but from others around me I heard the other food that I didn't try, wasn't good as well. I ate the lobster tail, which had a strange odor to it and didn't taste so good. The pasta was OK, and the turkey was OK. You can't expect much from a buffet but it could've been better. It's not a bad venue for large groups of people, and the service was good. Not much to say about the food but maybe it was just a one-off day where it wasn't that good.

My daughter was married 11/6. Hands down Anton's took care of it all they did. Extremely organized all was in order. Extra special thanks to Tiana I hope I spelled that correctly. absolutely phenomenal. Give her a promotion. Her grace and patience. The running back and Continuous checking in on us. When ever I needed something it's was done in 2.5 seconds. I offered to help or do something. She said no mom just enjoy we got this. Photographer was amazing I appreciate the professionalism the grace of this venue hands-down this wedding went off without any incidents

We had our dear fathers repass luncheon here on June 1st last year and I couldn't find a complaint if I tried. When you are grieving, the last thing you want to do is choose or decide on anything. They had great options, menu; etc. They thought of everything. The price was right and everyone raved about the food and overall ambiance. It's a neighborhood gem! Thank you Antuns! From the Murrays

I don't particularly care for old school banquet halls but this was an impressive spot for it's kind. You are greeted at the door and given direction to your event. Clean bathroom and facility. Definitely has an old school vibe and decor. Food was just about the best I've had at a banquet hall recently. The food was flavorful and tasty. Drinks were a bit weak. I give it 4 stars for staff hospitality, cleanliness and flavorful food.

I'm leaving a review as a videographer who shot a wedding at this location yesterday. While I understand that Antun's wasn't paying me to film at their location or vice versa, the way that some of the staff treated me was pretty rude and unhelpful. I'm used to an understanding of reciprocity with venues; they help me navigate their location so I can get my job done and in turn, their location is going to be featured in my film which is free promotion for anyone viewing my video on my social media platforms. From the moment I arrived, no one was polite enough to point me in the direction of the service entrance or the elevator while I was carrying 3 bags of fairly heavy gear. When I attempted to set up my audio recorder and had a question about where I could plug in, the manager in charge gave me an abrupt "I don't have an out" answer and walked away rather than helping me figure out a solution. There just seemed to be a general attitude of dismissiveness from a lot of people that I found very frustrating. It doesn't take that much more energy to also be helpful and friendly to the vendors because I've seen it done before.

I was a guest at a 70th birthday party yesterday (12/27/2015). The place was nicely decorated for the holidays and had a very old school look (set up, furniture, carpet, wall paper, etc.) Everything was very typical of a catering hall. I was not a fan of the service AT ALL, which is what prompted me to write this review. The bartender was very, very obnoxious... (name tag read Davy? Red-head, older gentleman) I went up with my mom to get a glass of wine and he very rudely asked if I had ID, telling my mom "she looks SO young" Obviously, I went back to the table to grab my license and as I presented it to him he continued to scold, make comments and shook his head saying "this looks nothing like you, this is your older sister" (lol k glad you know my life so well, I don't have sisters) Why was he hassling my MOTHER about this? I literally have *never* been questioned for so long about the validity of my ID. And mind you it was 2 in the afternoon... On a Sunday. At a 70th birthday party. With family. He continued to make comments and I thought he wasn't going to serve me but then I guess he gave in and angrily poured some wine. Obviously, I didn't argue or make a big fuss because that would just be unfair to the host and I didn't actually want to drink anyways... Still SO embarrassing, uncomfortable, and unnecessary. I am hoping this was an isolated incident but he was just SO unpleasant and unprofessional. It would probably be an exaggeration to assume that said bartender is representative of the entire staff but no one else was particularly pleasant or attentive either. All the servers looked miserable and avoided eye contact. Also, there was someone (a staff member) in the bathroom doing a book of word searches throughout the entire event looking so miserable as well. So weird! Ultimately, this encounter did not really ruin my time there because I went to see family (and did not intend to drink anyways) but I would not recommend anyone hosting an event at a place such as Antun's where the staff was this unpolished and rude. The food was mediocre at best and the viennese dessert table was an unnecessarily cheesy production - aka nothing else made up for the poor service and Davy's severe lack of professionalism.

Had a religious event here over the weekend and wow! Antun's exceeded my expectations when it came to professionalism. From the moment I booked my event with Samantha I was very pleased with how helpful she was. Now let me get to the event..Samantha mentioned my maitre d and told me he was one of the best and I can't agree any more. Our maitre d was Ray. He was soooooo helpful and fun. I was running around and Ray was always there to make sure things went smoothly. He really went above and beyond.

6 hours ago ANTUNS!!! The most amazing place on earth! An easy commute for all guests and the best staff on earth. They answered every single call, no matter the time of day at least 3 times a week. The cake was included in the price for the venue ( and YESSS it was so bomb omg). SAMANTHA, Mickey, Tamara, Jodie, Tiana and our lovely maître d', thanks for making sure we had a great wedding. Thank you for appealing to the young crowd by always staying active on your social media. We will definitely be having our baby shower there and I will truly recommend this place to anyone who's trying to book a venue for their event. I'm going to always shout this place out on my IG. PS: THE FOOD FROM THE COCKTAIL HOUR WAS BOMBBBBB.COM AND SO WAS THE DINNER. If you're vegan you're in luck!!! They have vegan ravioli!!!!

I been to Antun's many times because of my work in Queens nonprofit. Today I came for a gala lunch. Antun's is decorated classic banquet hall style with a large dance floor. Antun's is clean and well kept the bathrooms are kept immaculate, that is always a good sign. Today's event was buffet style, I prefer sit-down service but that's really up to your host. The food is okay tasty and the staff work hard. Antun's is not as upscale as other halls but when you are with the right people and have a great DJ it calls for good times!

I recently attended my cousin's wedding at Antun's. I didn't really feel likely going but I went anyway. My cousin and I are the same age, 32. I was jealous of the fact that he met someone while I've never been in a real relationship. However, that's neither here nor there. The interior is so beautiful and immaculate. The ceremony went off without a hitch. It was clear that the staff meticulously planned the ceremony. In addition, I really enjoyed the DJ. I loved the pasta appetizer. The actual dinner, however, was mediocre. This is an "upscale" venue so the menu is somewhat sophisticated- you won't find fried chicken, macaroni, burgers, or pizza on the menu. The prime rib that I ate was a little tough and the overall portion size was somewhat small. I didn't try the dessert so I can't comment on that. As we ate dinner, romantic music played in the background. The majority of the caterers had a positive disposition. However, one of them looked like she hated her life. Objectively speaking, I had a good, but not great experience. I'd rate it a 3.5 but since I'm feeling generous, I'll round up. This is a very easy to reach location. It's literally across the street from the Queens Village LIRR station and very close to the Cross Island Parkway.

They did a lovely job transforming the event space into a comfortable outdoor dining area. Tables are well-spaced and staff observes safety guidelines. The food is delicious, there's plenty of it, and you cannot beat the price! Staff is warm and welcoming. Highly recommended.

Super super nice place. I've been there so many times and have enjoyed myself each time. The food is delicious and the venue is perfect for any occasion. Clean and pretty. My review is for the Thurston Memorial Outreach Ministries this afternoon May 4,2019. Wonderful fun afternoon.

If you are planning a budget wedding, then look no further! Weddings are hectic, and whatever could go wrong does go wrong X 10! That's why, the event coordinator and maitre d should be pleasant and accommodating. I am a corporate events planner, I understand that things don't always go according to plan, however, I would still keep a level of professionalism when interacting with guests. Yes, we are PAYING guests. They should get rid of the maitre d title and rename it CO (corrections officer) bc she was speaking to everyone like we were inmates at a federal prison. I should also note the sassy wedding coordinator had some sarcastic and patronizing comments as well (but not directly towards me). As soon as the limo came, all our bags were whisked away to the bridal suite. We were then taken to the lobby area outside of the reception area. We were told we were NOT allowed in the bridal suite. Why? So no one could touch up their makeup or anything prior to the ceremony. After the ceremony, the bride had to pay the limo driver and asked me to go get the money from her bag. Since I didn't know where the bridal suite was, I asked the CO. I was told "I can't let you in there by yourself! Someone from our staff needs to accompany you. You are not allowed in there alone." Excuse me? I was obviously apart of the bridal party, bc when she lined us up like cattle earlier, she yelled out each of our names and I was wearing a bridesmaid dress. I had to disrupt the bride & groom from taking pics and tell them I was not allowed to go upstairs w/o a police escort. The bride had to come and tell the CO she needed to pay the driver. The CO rolled her eyes and spoke into her headset to get someone to police me, bc I'm not allowed access to my own personal property. 2 other bridesmaids and I finally get to go upstairs, it was like we were granted special privilege into the prison yard for good behavior. When we got upstairs, my tote bag was open, I know 110% my bag was zipped up. My jacket and cell phone was also stuffed into someone else's bag (so weird). I had brought 2 cash canons (to use during the reception but earlier when I asked, the CO looked at me like I was crazy and said I couldn't use it, it's basically contraband) and had them inside a plastic bag, one was on the couch and one was inside the bag, again very strange. When we go downstairs, the bride said we took too long to get the money and she had to borrow cash from a guest bc the driver couldn't wait (how embarrassing). A bridal suite is for the bridal party to keep their stuff in, change, touch up their makeup. Have a code entry or give a key, we shouldn't need permission or an escort to have access to our belongings. And this is definitely not about security for OUR stuff, bc when the party was almost over and I wanted to get my bags, I was told they already brought all our stuff down. They put all our stuff in the corner of the banquet room. Yes, they put my wallet, with my id, credit cards, and cash in a room with 100 people, very smart move Antun's! Who's the brains behind this operation? The last time I had to deal with the CO was for the bridal party entrance. She said when the bride & groom come in, we need to lift one arm up and create an arch. As each couple from the bridal party came out, we were to line up. The CO kept coming and pushing and shoving us to "get in line!". She even yelled at me bc I'm short and couldn't lift my arms the way she wanted me to. She basically wanted me to stand at a 45 degree angle, how is that humanly possible? The food was standard catering hall food. It started with what looked like a DIY salad, and then guests had a choice b/t 4 options. I was actually surprised to see they had (2) vegetarian options, which was great bc it was a no meat Friday wedding during Lent. I ordered the eggplant with angel hair pasta or should I say a thin piece of breaded eggplant wrapped around plain pasta with string beans and sauce on the side. The servers during dinner were very nice, also the bartender Indira was awesome! She saved this review from being 1 Star! Indira had the hospitality skills and personality that the wedding coordinators lacked. And FYI, you must buy your wedding cake from them. You are not allowed to bring in your own cake. A wedding cake is something special, this alone would be a dealbreaker for me. This is the first event space I went to that did not allow an outside cake, charge a cake cutting fee or something if you want to milk the customer for everything. And the cake was a plain yellow cake with vanilla pudding, weird mushy cake consistency. There are also a million stairs. All in all, if you ever want to have an OITNB experience or scare bad teenagers straight with a real life prison encounter, check out Antun's!

Recently attended a wedding here, and it was great! Staff was very attentive. Cute outdoor garden area for the ceremony, and then a big spacious and clean reception area. Food was delicious and appetizers were plentiful! Excellent wedding venue

Hello and thank you if you are reading this. I recently had my wedding there 9/24/16. They made my wife feel so comfortable. I could not ask for anything other then that. I went with L&S entertainment for the dj,mc and photo booth. You will not be disappointed when you use there recommend venus. We booked everything from the people the recommend so it went so smooth. Everyone was no friendly and help our family with anything we needed. I just want to say if your looking for a place just go in a see for your self ask to speak with Mickey. He would make you feel at home. Cindy was the one who help us book. But everyone I talked to weather it was one the phone or in person was respectful and cared to help me.

So this review is based on the parking situation, as far as the venue I come to expect that Antuns is what it is a catering hall in a ok residential neighborhood that provides a service. No WOW factor. Many rooms for multiple events unfortunately expanded the location leaving not enough room for parking, 3 lots all full to capacity. Had to park my car on the corner of 98av and 218 street, because this neighborhood is residential. Well came back to my glass smashed and items stolen from my trunk. Another family member also had there window smashed and items stolen. While I'm sure Antuns will say that has nothing to do with them. I fell they should really look into proper parking for there guests, and not focus on just squeezing in as much parties per night.

"Best wedding I ever attended!!!" this was said by my wedding photographer, who has done hundreds of weddings. Thanks to Antun's great staff, my wedding day was the best day of my life. They made everything so easy. They did all the hard work. I did not have to worry about a thing. I am forever grateful to them for making my once in a lifetime day truly memorable. All my guests loved the food, the room, the DJ, the ambiance, pretty much they loved everything. I heard over and over from many of my guests that this was the best wedding they ever attended. Cynthia Valdez, my wedding planner, was the best. Patti, my Maître D, was the great. Doris my Bridal Attendant was unbelievable. They made everything flow flawlessly. I do not know what I would have done without them. Love Always, Mrs. Laura Morand

On October 28th 2018 , we had our mom 60th birthday party there and EVERYTHING was PERFECT! The food, the ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL venue, our host Richard was wonderful. It was the best venue decision we've made. Absolutely will be using them again. Thanks again Michelle for everything. My mom was very pleased.

Thank you Antuns for an amazing evening! We celebrated our daughter Kelsie's sweet sixteen in the patio room. Sammy and the staff ensured that we and all our guests were well taken care of. We requested a couple of Latin dishes and they were more than accommodating. A lot of our guests kept saying the food and cake were delicious. Antun's provided us with a list of DJs they work with. We chose to hire Sonido con Clase and they were also very professional and kept our guests on the dance floor. We all had a great time and we would recommend Antun's to everyone. Again, thank you Joe, Gina, Sammy, and staff for a most memorable evening!

Had a disgusting experience with the owner of this establishment before I even signed a contract. All I wanted was to work put some details for a party I wanted to plan and the owner really did not care. All he rambled on about was how HE likes things run a certain way and how HE hasn't had an issue in 20+ years. He was extremely rude to me and even tried questioning my finances by saying some food at his establishment is quite expensive and not everyone can afford to eat it. Um what? Good job sounding like a hackjob. Hopefully you don't croak too early, you have too many white hairs showing from your unhappiness.

Standard Catering hall. Food not great, A lot of pre frozen stuff which of was obvious. Its a good place if you have a low budget for a wedding. Rolling in kitchen carts to serve the food to 80 plus people gave the feeling of feeding time at the zoo...that certainly could be eliminated from their procedures. Decor is dated big time, heavy carpeting and compartmentalized rooms gives the feel of a funeral home inside. Table service was excellent however. Staff was courteous and worked to ensure that everyone had what they needed. If you want a lower cost catering hall, I suppose this is good but I would imagine there are better options out there.

My team decided to take about 40 of our patients and their guests to eat at a nice place for a Holiday Party. We chose Antun's because it was near our office, it was near public transportation, the prices weren't out of our budget per person, and they would have a nice private room for us. This was a nice place and a nice experience for all of us, and i can see people enjoying themselves at a wedding or some other venue here. However, as an overall experience, it was "middle of the road." Some of the staff were pleasant, others were not. They were accommodating, letting us turn off their music. The decorations were nice, bright, and festive. Their holiday decorations were appropriate and fun. The food was "ehhh", I mean, the best part of the meal were the rolls with salted butter! The appetizer, the fruits, were sour. The entrees were pedantic and run of the mill. The portions were small. The dessert tasted like it just came out of the frozen food aisle at some random supermarket. I'd give the food a 2 and give the service, set up, and decorations a 4.

Antun's is a great venue! The service was amazing and the place is pretty nice. They really worked with us for our holiday christmas party! The staff was acommodating and professional. Antun is a great place to throw your party for weddings,sweet 16's or what have you. The food was really good for a dinner buffet and the drinks kept on flowing. Besides some more modern updating this is the place to have your party. They also have 2 huge parking lots so parking is never a problem.

Wish I could give more than 5 Stars. I had my Birthday/Retirement/ Anniversary Celebration here at Anton"s. Yobert, Ms. Cynthia Valdez were outstanding, They made the whole affair wonderful. They anticipated my every need and added special touches that enhanced my evening. The food was out of this world and the staff was so personable. I got the whole package DJ, photobooth and the videotographer from Antuns and I was very pleased. Thank you so much.

My fiancé and I originally wanted to have our wedding at Antuns however our finances changed and we opt to get married in court. We recently requested a refund for our deposit and Mickey was very understanding. Besides some minor fees he gladly said he'll send us a check within 30 days of the remaining balance. That was a relief and what I call great business !!! . I'll be sure to write a update once the check is received as well. UPDATE I was refunded within 30 day as promised. Satisfied client!

Wow! This place exceeded all of our expectations. The venue was impeccably clean and comfortable. The food was excellent, the bar had everything we asked for, the staff was kind and courteous. The Customer Service was outstanding right from the beginning during the planning stages of our event and ultimately culminated in awesome service during the party itself. Many of my guests snuck out to the office after the party to inquire about booking their own events here in the future. I would gladly recommend Antuns QV to anybody. Thank you for making our special day go soo smoothly.
