Last year, we held our wedding rehearsal at Ficus 2nd Floor, and it proved to be an absolutely delightful and cozy venue. The buffet-style food offered was not only delicious but also showcased the restaurant's expertise in New American cuisine with a special emphasis on East Asian flavors. What made our experience truly exceptional was the ability to combine American, Italian, French, and Asian dishes. This diverse menu ensured that all our guests' culinary preferences were catered to, adding a fantastic touch to our celebration. The manager was prompt in responding to our inquiries, contributing to the overall smooth planning process. One notable feature that enhanced the ambiance was the well-designed wall, providing an ideal backdrop for our decorations. The inclusion of a music system added an extra layer of enjoyment to the atmosphere. The fair pricing coupled with the quality of the food made Ficus 2nd Floor a standout choice for us. In conclusion, I highly recommend Ficus 2nd Floor for any event or celebration. The combination of diverse cuisine, attentive management, tasteful ambiance, and reasonable prices makes it a fantastic choice for a memorable experience.

We've been regulars at Wild East since they opened, so it was a no brainer for us to hold our wedding reception there. The space is beautiful and the team is wonderful and very easy to work with. Casey, in particular, was immensely helpful in guiding us through the process. We had approximately 85 guests for a seated dinner in the taproom; the adjacent cellar room was the perfect space for our caterer to set up the buffet. We were lucky to find an amazing DJ who kept everyone dancing throughout the night. We couldn't have asked for a better experience.
