Review of Artisans Restaurant

Had a lovely party for my dad;s 90th birthday part...

Had a lovely party for my dad;s 90th birthday party. The private room is great...nicely decorated, great setup, etc. The food was very good, and prices reasonable for the quality and quantity. The options for liquor were also quite reasonable. We offered consumption basis for wine, beer (brewed directly at Artisans) and sangria. They set it up as a station and only replenished when finished. I very much appreciated that they didn't push it onto guests to drive up costs. They worked with me on securing that specific room even though our party was smaller than the minimum (we had 44 adults), which I very much appreciated since we wanted the extra space to set up photos, dancing etc. My only two negatives (and why I didn't do 5 stars) are 1) their standard is 3 hours, not 4. I felt a bit rushed. You can get the room longer, but they charge a pretty high fee. With that being said, when we started to at least start to wrap it up in time, they didn't nit pick about going over a few I do think at least 3.5 to 4 should be standard like other places; 2) The internet was very shaky, which put a big damper on our playlists (brought both Alexa and an internet speaker) I was warned a couple days ahead that the internet was spotty but it was too late at that point to hire DJ. We had to run the music through a laptop without great quality or sound, and couldn't use Alexa as planned to play through instruction certain songs at certain times. All in all, I would definitely use it again for a private event Oh and for dinner too. Try their Sunday pasta for I think $13 and bottles of wine (good ones) for $15. Good deal!
