REPOST-From 06: Wedding Friday night at Villa Lombardi's-want me to keep an eye out for anything?? UPDATE-MINI REVIEW!

let me know!

UPDATE:

My 7/14/06 review of Villa Lombardi’s

Please note that this is MY PERSONAL OPINION!!!!

Décor- This place is very beautiful & the grounds are very nice.

Cocktail Hour: There was tons of food hot/cold and everything I tasted was delicious.

Service & Food: the wait staff that we had at our table was very nice, however if you turned your back for one second your drink was gone! They also kept coming over to ask if we were done eating & that made us feel a little rushed. I had shrimp oregenato for dinner & it wasn’t really too good. I didn’t finish it The veggies & potato were excellent. DH had rack of lamb & it was over cooked & he also didn’t finish it. As for everyone else at our table they said the food was just okay. However, my in-laws were at another table & enjoyed their dinner.

They did not do a Venetian hour, so I can’t comment on that. There was another wedding going on either upstairs or in the room next to us & during dinner we could hear the music pumping in there.

I have heard so many wonderful things about this place, but to be perfectly honest-maybe they just had a bad night. All in all we had a good time, as well as the bride & groom.

If you have any questions please let me know

If you could give us some details and maybe a picture or two of the Viennese hour that would be great!

Keep an eye out for the Maitre D and their name also if the reception room seems tight. Thanks so much! Can't wait for your review!

Thanks sooo much for the review!
I'm not worried about the food.. my boss went to Villa Lombardi's 2 weeks ago and had the Shrimp oregenato and she said it was out of the world delicious! sooo.. I assume they must have had a bad night. As of right now.. no one is getting married there on my day.. so hopefully the music wont be an issue!
Did they have the ceremony there???
Wondering how it looks outside all done up. Thank you again!

I used to valet at Villa Lombardi's a few years ago. The place is so pretty and immaculate! Gergous places to take pictures too. The food was sometimes hit or miss. The chef used to feed us if there was anything extra rather than it going to waste. Sometimes it was to die for and others I couldn't eat and had to go next door to Mama's and get some pizza.
I never heard any complaints about the music from another wedding before, but I do know that they will do up to 3 weddings at a time depending on the size of them.
