Shaw's is a place my mom and I frequent often for after work martinis and apps. We love the Oyster Bar and one day decided it would be the perfect spot for my bridal shower. It was better than I could have ever dreamt up! The team at Shaw's did everything imaginable to give me the perfect day ever! The drink service was quick, everyone was incredibly friendly, and the food was amazing. I have gotten a compliment from everyone that attended.

We just had our wedding at Formento’s and were *amazed* by the space, food, service, vibes and overall experience. We were shocked they can fit 120 people for a wedding (or even 130 if you’re okay getting a bit cozy)—and we were so thrilled we could have a larger guest list *and* restaurant-quality (very quality!!) food and drink. Don’t pay to rent a space and bring in meh food. Have your wedding at Formento’s you will never regret it!! Their events team is immaculate: India, Karen, Julie, and so many more, and it felt like everyone from the events team to the service staff were celebrating with us. Simply the best. We’ll be back for every anniversary
