If I could give this venue 1000 stars, I would. The Chateau Ritz is nothing short of amazing! I’ve attended events at this venue in the past, once for a wedding, and once for a school banquet. I decided to throw my moms 60th surprise birthday party here and my mom absolutely loved it! I would recommend this venue for any special occasion. It is family owned, and the staff are extremely nice, efficient and professional! Ample parking space for all of your guest and in my opinion, worth every dime!👌

Hi, Just want to let everyone know a Little bit of my experience at the" Chateu Ritz"
I celebrated my Daughter's Quinceañera on August The 30th 2019! And let me tell you all It was Beyond Amazing! The Venue itself it's gorgeous! my favorite part are the Beautiful chandeliers! also the suite that my daughter accomodated her dress, shoes, clothes is very spacious and clean. The Service that Mike and Irene provided me was Amazing! They were extremely helpful from the start to the very end! Chateu Ritz it's a Wonderful place to celebrate any type of event, very spacious, clean, organized and not to talk about the food and the whole service from the staff, bartender and everybody that was there to host! My family and I are very grateful to have found this Venue to celebrate A very Important moment of my daughter's life! All My guests had an amazing Time!! Thank You so much Mike and Irene for making this not any day but the most wonderful to remember!!!
Sincerely: "!!The Salazar Family!!!

My sister had her wedding here and the whole experience was great. Everyone who worked there was super helpful, especially Mike. They all went above and beyond despite us probably being the most annoying and demanding wedding they've ever had there. They were calm and patient, and that helped us relax. I would highly recommend.

Let us start off by saying that Claudia and her staff are amazing. They went above and beyond with their service, and made the whole process smooth from start to finish. From the moment we first walked into the Chateau Ritz, Claudia was very welcoming and answered any questions that we had. We knew from the moment we walked out on our first visit that this would be our venue. After putting down our deposit, we made a number of other visits to the venue throughout the year, and each time Claudia and her staff welcomed us with open arms, answered our questions, and even let us walk around the rooms as other events were going through their preparations. It definitely helped us as we tried to visualize our own wedding layout.
The hall itself is beautiful, and quite affordable considering all of its amenities. It has a solid marble dance floor, sturdy tables/chairs, and gorgeous chandeliers. Even if you go with half of the room, it is quite spacious: fits up to 300 guests comfortably. There is plenty of parking space, and they allow you to leave your car overnight as long you let them know beforehand. During our research on food reviews, we had read and heard from others that the food was delicious - indeed it was. The Chicken Chateau was amazing, and our vegetarian guests loved the lasagna.
On the day of our wedding, Claudia was very happy to see us, and reassured us that everything was being taken care of. As you might expect, not everything goes according to plan at weddings, but Claudia and her staff truly looked out for us and accommodated us when something didn’t go as planned. The staff was very courteous and welcoming. One member of the wait staff even stayed late to set up and manage our late night snack table. At the end of the night, Claudia allowed us to wait at the hall while we waited for our delayed shuttle buses to take us to our hotel. They were even nice enough to collect anything that was left behind and store it in their office - we picked everything up the next day. Truly exceptional service.
We loved our experience at the Chateau Ritz and HIGHLY RECOMMEND it - 110%.

Beautiful venue, multiple rooms available for your special events. Parking is big with plenty of spots available for their guests.
On the minus side, the food was not as tasty as you would expect and this was noticed on more than one occasion.

We are very pleased after having our wedding at the Chateau Ritz in September of this year! Mike and the rest of the crew were very helpful with our wedding planning process. We had to do most of our wedding planning long distance and they were nothing but accommodating. We even had a last minute issue and they were there to take care of it so I wouldn’t have to be stressed out days before my wedding. The food was excellent and the wedding day itself was perfect! The venue is so beautiful! Thank you to all of the staff who helped us make our wedding dreams come true!!!

I had my wedding here over memorial day weekend and I couldn't even tell you how amazing and accommodating Mike and his staff were. Everything was perfect and went according to plan.Hands down they have earned all 5 stars and then some. Mike had a great list of vendors that really did an amazing job. The set up is just perfect for wedding pictures and memories for everyone. A wedding can be stressful and hectic however the front office is super accommodating and ORGANIZED. Most impotantly THE FOOD was AMAZING. Dates book up fast so I would hop on any openings they do have. I couldn't thank you guys enough For everything.BRAVO!

We had our wedding reception at the Chateau Ritz in November of 2017 and couldn't have been happier about our choice!

The very spacious bridal suite included a full bathroom (separate powder room) with enough room for about 3-4 girls to primp PLUS a whole sitting area big enough for at least 5-6 people comfortably. It was the perfect retreat when we needed a breather between the ceremony and the reception and the best part was that the waitstaff brought us up some food from our cocktail hour! We were starving and that hit the spot.

The candlelit room looked gorgeous! They placed the lighting exactly where I asked them to. Listen to them when they tell you what size room to get, they know what they're talking about. I kept thinking my 125 person wedding would take up the entire banquet hall but they insisted that I only rent one side. Of course, they were right. There are many places to take amazing pictures here.

My guests are still talking about awesome the food was. We served filet, sea bass, and vegetarian lasagna. This is not your average banquet food and the portions were huge! They did this really cute bow tie strawberry display on our sweets table too. The bartenders were super friendly and accommodating. Actually, everyone was. They never missed any of the details we requested.

The price was very fair and the bar package was generous. We are truly thankful we chose the Chateau Ritz.

All because of fear i decide to try it with little amount of $1,100 but to my greatest surprised Mrs Cathy Frederick made me a profit of $12,000 within a week, now I'm continuously earning not less than $8,000 - $12,000 anytime i invested with minimum amount of $1,000 within a week. Just so i also decided to post it out through recommendation just in case if anyone might be interested!! contact her via

doesn't recommendsMe and my fiancé were planning a large reception at the ritz however due to covid we have had to cancel our wedding. We... put $2,000 down for a deposit and the facility has refused to give us a refund or even a partial refund. How heartless. We didn’t cancel for personal reasons but due to a global pandemic. As if canceling a wedding isn’t hard enough on us now we have to suffer a financial loss because this facility will not refund us. This truly shows me the integrity of these people. These are not people to do business with because that’s all they care about. We are living in uncertain times and if you don’t want to lose thousands of dollars I would strongly recommend looking somewhere else with a facility that caresread more

The selection at the bar was amazing and when we asked for a certain beer that wasn't included, they made sure to get it for us. Mike and Claudia were with us the day of our wedding and we're outstanding. They kept my guests happy and were very attentive to all of our needs. With the stress of the wedding, I had a lot on my mind. However I never had to worry about the venue because Chateau Ritz had everything under control. You can't beat the quality of service you will receive at Chateau Ritz, not to mention they are reasonably priced. They try their best not to charge for extras, which we really appreciated. Thank you so much, we had an amazing wedding!read more
