A friend of mine had a wedding at the Marina Del Rey recently, and it was absolutely wonderful. The food was tasty, the room was beautifully decorated, the atmosphere was perfect. My only issues is that the staff could use a bit of help, as they seemed somewhat unprofessional in that they had no idea what they were serving. I would definitely recommend this venue.

I went to Marina del Rey for a wedding reception on November 29, 2008. The food was fantastic, the decor was beautiful, and the staff was excellent. I highly recommend Marina del Rey!

My sister recently got married at Marina Del Rey and the place was amazing. I don't know what everyone else is talking about because the food was delicious and the staff treated everyone well. It was worth every penny!

Look-this is not a deluxe catering hall and that being said, it lives up to it's implicit promise. The food isn't bad if you like fried calamari and baby meatballs for apps and the usual steak/chicken /salmon entrees. The party I am obliged to attend here yearly is always a theme event. You know-like the Sixties! or some sports theme. Argggh! I hate those things. A group of really bad actors meet you at the door and you can have your picture taken with people who look like idiots.
The accomodations are OK with views ot the water and if the weather is nice, you can go outside on the terrace. If you're smart, you'll stay there and miss the DJ and his team acting like fools. The food as I alluded to earlier is nothing to write home about. In fairness, you don't go to a third-tier place like this and expect Xavier's X2O. The best thing I can say is I never got food poisoning after an event here. Overall, they try but don't quite make it. I would rate them 6/10 which I think is being generous.

So we get there early yesterday, see no one outside, and park in the lot to wait for the other guests to arrive and to enjoy the view. Suddenly some bald-headed freak comes up to my car and snarls you can't come in here. It's valet parking. Ok, if I knew that I MIGHT have waited outside the entrance, but I wasn't about to pull back around to the entrance just so this a-hole can drive my car 50 feet back to where I was parked, especially with the attitude he was giving me.
Later that night we're leaving and in front of a large group of customers, all the valets start yelling cheapcheapcheapcheap as we drive off ( I just drove two hours from Connecticut, and with gas prices the way they were, it was anything but cheap for me).
Whatever, I'm not ever going back anyway, but I wonder if the other cutomers waiting for their car were made to feel uncomfortable and were pressured to tip more because of this display.
