Fantastic Wedding Venue
There are too many good things to say. Fandi Mata is a beautiful space that really captures the feeling of Brooklyn. Everyone raved about the food and the plants and just how unique it felt as a wedding venue. It was intimate and fun and lively. Our guests also raved about how good the food was, and the drinks and cocktails were equally yummy. The service was impeccable; the staff was so friendly and present throughout. Ivana, the in-house coordinator, runs this venue like a well oiled machine. You are in amazing hands, and I never had to worry about a thing leading up to the event or on the day. I truly felt like a guest in my own wedding because of her thoughtfulness, rigor, and professionalism. Of all the venues in the city, I really think that Fandi Mata has the complete package for a very fair price based on how naturally beautiful it is inside and how much comes with the experience. They don’t upsell you and let you work with whichever vendors you’d like. We knew as soon as we walked in this was it for us, and every interaction with Ivana and the team proved that out. I’d recommend also looking them up on Reddit because there are a lot of good, in depth reviews there, too. That’s how I originally found this venue. Thank you so much, Ivana & Fandi Mata!!!!

What. A. Night.
What. A. Night. The number of people — literally almost every single person we spoke to — who complimented us on our choice of venue was insane. Person after person: “This venue is incredible!” “How did you find this place?!” “The plants!” "The art! "The tables!" But the thing is, it goes far beyond the physical beauty of the venue itself. It’s the people behind it. It’s the greeters welcoming everyone with four different types of wine as they walk in. It’s the staff moving the mirror moments before the ceremony because our photographer had a last-minute recommendation. It’s the waiters bringing appetizer after appetizer. It’s the succulent chicken and crispy fish arriving at every table, no matter how many people were seated. It’s the espresso martini shots making their way onto the dance floor. That is what makes the venue perfect. And so much of that starts with you, Ivana (and your team, including Arianna). You are the leader who somehow brings professionalism and care together with joy and fun. From our very first meeting with you through the final moments of the night, we felt like we were in incredibly capable hands. We truly could not have asked for a better experience for our wedding. You set the bar so high that now all of our out-of-town guests think this is just what NYC weddings are like! We are forever grateful to you and the entire team. We would absolutely love to leave a review — is there a particular platform you’d prefer us to share our gratitude on? And if you have any questions or need anything from us as you wrap things up on your end, please don’t hesitate to reach out. With love, Gabriel & Taylor

Wedding Perfection
We had our wedding reception at Fandi Mata in March 2026 and it was absolutely amazing. Even weeks later, our family and friends are still raving about the delicious food. The ambience is perfection. The service is top notch. Ivana and her team are incredible to work with and helped take the stress out of planning our day. I am very detail oriented and Ivana always provided a thoughtful and professional response. We trusted her team with orchestrating one of the biggest celebrations of our lives and they delivered 110%.

Lovely Baby Shower for baby Mia
We threw my sister's baby shower at Fandi Mata. Our guests were raving about the food and the decor. The croquetas, french toast, chicken skewers and pizza were amazing! The live music set a nice vibe. The staff was very friendly and extremely helpful. The cocktails were great as well. Highly recommend for any event!

Wedding at Fandi Mata
We absolutely loved Fandi Mata as a wedding venue. The venue was gorgeous and unique - we got compliments the entire night from guests. The food was beyond incredible. Drinks were great. The whole night went by in a flash - they were so on top of the organization that all was left to do was enjoy. Highly recommend your next event here!
