    We got married here a few weeks ago and we loved the place. It was the perfect size for our 140 guests. The Upstairs is so beautiful with the hanging lights and modern feel. The staff were truly kind and helpful, and the food/drinks were amazing!

  • Excellent wedding venue

    We just had our daughter's ceremony and reception here. It was absolutely wonderful. Ann was incredible to work with, making sure everything was taken care of. The day of the event went smoothly. The bar and wait staff received lots of positive comments from our guests. The food was delicious and the place looked unbelievable.... Just what our daughter envisioned. I would 100% recommend The Upstairs!!!
