RP- any info on these reception sites???

One of my hubby's friends who just got engaged is considering some of these places, and she asked me if I had info......the groom to be is in NY, the bride to be is in California (she's a doctor in the army).....so it will be a little while before she can see these places herself. I've been to two of them on her list, but figured I'd turn to my girls on LIW for more feedback!!

pls let me know if you have any good or bad feedback or notable info. If you'd rather FM, please do!

TIA!!!!

Here's her list:

-Nicotra's Ballroom at the Hilton Garden Inn, SI
-Vanderbilt at South Beach, SI
-Li Greci's Staaten, SI
-Terrace on the Park, Flushing Meadows
-Russo's on the Bay, Howard Beach
-The Renaissance, Bklyn (14th and 59th)
-Sirico's, Bklyn

ETA- if you have any places you'd recommend in Brooklyn or Staten Island, feel free to let me know, I can pass it on to her to research. Thanks!

My aunt got married at the Vanderbilt in Staten Island. It was great. The place is beautiful and the food was delicious.

Russo's on the Bay also does an unbelievable wedding.

I've been to tons of weddings at Russo's, their weddings are always beautiful, the offer tons of food, the service is great and the place is gorgeous

I looked at Terrace on the Park - it is very nice and the food packages looked great. I was not thrilled with one of the ceremony rooms. Also, if you are having a smaller wedding, you will probably not get one of the cool rooms with a view on top but rather a first floor room that is sort of like an old ballroom.

I want to a bar-mitzvah in 'Vanderbilt at south beach' last March. I liked it , the food was great and it was beautiful. The only problem i had was the rooms were close together, and i heard the wedding next door. Terrace on the park is nice if you are having a big wedding, anf you can get the penthouse, otherwise the other ballroom just looks old. I was not thrilled with the elevators either, they looked scary, like they r about to break down.

I looked into Terrace on the Park the only problem i had booking with them is that they wouldn't let us taste the food
