We hosted my bridal shower this past weekend at Gala Banquets. The venue is exceptional all around from ambiance to service and food. We received so many compliments from our guests on how beautiful the place is. The owner is super accommodating and the staff did a great job throughout the event. The food....is INCREDIBLE! Everyone loved it and couldnt stop talking about it. Overall, hosting here was a great success and I would recommend!
Gala Banquets has always been and always be my place to go. Konrad is extremely professional, kind and so easy to communicate with. He makes sure that his food is always top notch and fresh! He made my daughters sacrament throughout the years better than any venue. I highly recommend him for all and any occasions as a venue and for catering! He is just the very best!!!! Konrad thank you for always making me beyond happy with all that you do and making sure my guests are 100% satisfied! His #1 client and fan. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!!!! Agnes Metel

I had my daughter’s baptism at Gala Banquets and everything was amazing! The food was so fresh and delicious. The strawberry spinach salad is to die for! The place was super clean and plenty of safety measures in place due to COVID. The owner was very responsive, professional, and checked in multiple times to ensure everything was going well. The entire staff was on top of their game. As soon as they noticed something needed refills, they immediately got it, without having to be asked. I received many compliments from my guests about the event. Thanks Konrad! Can’t wait to plan another party with you!
This banquet hall is awesome! I had my college graduation here this past weekend I have nothing negative to say! We had so many compliments on the food, the service was amazing and there were absolutely no issues. From the first day we met Konrad he assured us that there would be no problems and that all we needed to do was relax and he was right. It was smooth, stress free and he made my vision come to life. The lighting, discoball, ambiance, all of it was perfect! I highly recommend banquet hall to anyone looking for an easy time planning and flawless execution. Thank you Konrad!
Elegant banquet with beautiful lighting. Great service and food. Overall a homerun for any occasion.
Nice mid size banquet
This banquet was amazing! We hosted my daughters baptism here yesterday and I couldn’t be more pleased. The room is beautifully done and renovated, the wait staff and Konrad were so accommodating and made sure we had everything we needed. I have to say, the best part of it all was the food!! Everything from the soup, to the salad, and the entrees were delicious! My guests couldn’t get enough! Definitely worth 5/5 stars.
I must say that I dont give reviews often. This case is special!Konrad, the owner, and his staff provided excellent service. They were very accommodating. The food was delicious and cannot forget the place itself. What a beautiful treasure. Gala Banquet is a newly renovated place perfect for all occasions. We were celebrating my daughters graduation and her 18th birthday just in the beginning of August. All of my 70 guests commented on this place how elegant and tasteful it is. Plus Konrad was able to help me choose a DJ, who understood his audience and played great music that everyone danced to. Thank you Gala Banquet, Thank you Konrad. I hope to see you at our next celebration! Highly recommended! A+
A nice home atmosphere. A wonderful and modern interior design. Home cooking which other banquet rooms can envy. All incredibly delicious and melting in your mouth.The whole room service at ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ pleasant, with a smile on your face 😀Nothing more to add ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐I recommend it and recommend it again.If I ever organize an event, then only with GALA BANQUETS !!!!!!!!!
My sister had the wedding couple of weeks ago at Gala Banquets. Everyone was pleasantly surprised by the service,food,ambiance . The best food for a wedding and very decent price.

Quality of food is SUPERB! The musical environment with DJ LEON is FANTASTIC! The space is cozy and intimate and perfect for any party!
I have been hosting family parties at this banquet hall for many years. The banquet hall is newly remodeled and looks fabulous. They have a great selection of food and they are very accommodating to providing the best quality food, service, and even provide options for people who have food allergies. I would recommend this banquet hall to anyone that is looking to for a nice clean modern place. My guests at my baby shower gave me many compliments on how happy they were with the food selection and how beautiful my shower was. I would like to thank Konrad and his staff for making my shower a night to remember.
We provided a photo booth for a wedding here. The room had an incredible nice design! The personal was so nice! They just go the extra mile for their customers! Super cool place!!!
I had my bridal shower here on 9/30/17 and it was absolutely perfect! Great service, excellent food. Conrad & his staff are so sweet and set up the place beautifully. I would recommend this place hands down! They have everything you need. Thanks again for a great party!
Absolutely the BEST !!! Recently I hosted large garden party at my home. I ordered catering from Gala Banquet Hall & Catering Concepts. The food was delicious and very fresh. Delivered hot, fresh and on time. Outstanding food and excellent costumer service. I would recommend Gala’s catering for any type of peoples gathering
We had our 40th birthday party over Gala Banquet . It is such a beautiful place. We received so many compliments from our guest about what a nice venue it was, some even said they would host an event there. The open bar package they had was amazing, the selection of alcohol was great especially for the price. All the guest we’re impressed. Everyone who works there is extremely helpful and help you plan a timeline. Perfect place!!!
Gala Banquet is my go to place for events. We love love their food, its always delicious. Our guests always compliment it. The place is also beautiful, and it is newly renovated. Overall, if you do not want to stress out about your party, then I would definitely go with Gala Banquet, always great service and food.
Jones Commercial High School, Class of 1994, held our 25th Year Class Reunion on Friday, August 9, 2019. Gala Banquets did an amazing job accommodating our requests.The ambience of the venue is gorgeous! The staff and service offered was nothing less than Top Notch! The food was quality and above all delicious! Not your typical banquet hall tasting food.We had a wonderful experience and I’ll personally patronize this establishment for future events. Thank you Konrad, for providing a high-end pleasant experience. You’ve gained a new friend and supporter!All the best and continued success with your endeavors.Kindest regards,LaTina Nicole
This banquet is BEAUTIFUL! I had my daughters christening here this past weekend and we love everything about this place! The food was delicious and and hot out the oven:-)! the service was amazing. All the waiters were there at all times to help and serve appetizers to each person as well as drinks! We had open bar and it was so great! The lighting was perfect and I love the disco ball!

Best banquet Hall ever!!! Super friendly and professional staff. Awesome food !!! Very affordable high quality experience. We just had our baby shower there today and we did not have to worry about a single thing. Big thanks to the owner Konrad for making this a very pleasant experience.
I am very pleased to say that having my party at this venue was entirely pleasing! Konrad is awesome and great to work with. He is very professional and flexible anything you need, he will try his best. The space, the price,the tables chairs, everything gets an A+. I would recommend anyone to have an event here!
I have been to Gala for many Events It was always a very pleasant experience. The food was always excellent and Plentiful. The Drinks were great. The staff was always pleasant and courteous. I would recommended gala to anyone for any type of event. Whether it be a Wedding a Baptism or a Family get together.
We had our daughters first communion party at Gala Banquets this past weekend. We couldnt be more thrilled with EVERYTHING! The venue is immaculate, recently updated, freshly painted, and beautifully decorated. The bathrooms are clean, modern, and spacious. The gorgeous granite bar was fully stocked and the bartender kept the drinks coming all night. The complimentary valet was very convenient along with additional free parking across the street. From the delicious appetizers (passed out butler style) to the generous portions of freshly prepared food, everything was wonderful! We received dozens of compliments from our family and friends afterwards. The owner Konrad is amazing to work with. He is very knowledgeable, experienced, and made our party a huge success. He recommended DJ Leon, who kept everyone up dancing all night. We will definitely have future parties at Gala. It is the best banquet hall in the city. We were beyond impressed with every aspect of the entire night. Just wish we could give them 10 stars!
Absolutely the BEST! I have attended many functions at Gala for many years and every time I have the best experience. I plan many parties from 20 to 200 people and every time I can count on Konrad and his amazing staff. The food is absolutely amazing and the talk of every party.If you are looking to wow your guest I strongly recommend Gala as well as there catering service!
Great party!Konrad is very helpful and easy to work withGreat food and staffBeautiful banquet roomThank you konrad for excellent organization and see on next party!

I couldnt be more happy with how they organized my wedding! Everything was perfect! I didnt have to worry about anything! Staff is amazing and I appreciate the kindness and experienced manner in which we were treated. Thanks again Gala Banquet Hall!
I was in Gala Banquet Hall four weeks ago. I had a baptism party. The place is beautiful,food is so delicious, service is professional,and bartender Ewelina is really nice and making amazing drinks. She works very hard. I never saw that bartender works that hard.Gala is number one in Chicago!!!!! I recommend this place to everyone. Special thanks to owner.
Everything was excellent
I had our wedding this weekend on the 28th, the banquet hall looked amazing the staff was amazing they made sure we had everything we needed and made sure all our requests where met. I Cant stress enough we were treated as If we were family. Konard made sure we had everything we needed. Ewelina, Thank you so much for making sure the wedding was on track and everything was done for us. Oh and food was plenty and it was amazing. We will be coming back.
New Years party of 2019 was a success! Nice ambience, fun music, delicious food and a lot of happy people dancing their butts off. I definitely recommend Gala Banquets!
I recently had my 40th birthday party at Gala Banquets and let me tell you this place is awesome. The food was fantastic, fresh and hot when served. Waiters and waitresses were asking if guests would like more food and we’re very nice. The bartender Ewelina made fantastic drinks (mojito are my recommendation). The owner Konrad checked and made sure everything was running smoothly.I will continue to recommend this venue to other and definitely will be back to have other parties at Gala Banquets!!Thank you for making my birthday special
I called to ask for availability to book the hall as I am getting married... (granted I knew we had to meet in person to discuss more details) but he cut me off and asked me for the date and stopped me dead in my tracks when he said it’s already taken and hung up on me. Maybe had he answered a bit nicer, or at least let me know that it was booked already I would have been a lot better off. But first impressions are keen and a simple phone conversation makes a big difference. ... rude.
I have to tell you these people are outstanding I have never ever felt so wonderful about doing business with a company as that is their flexibility with my budget was unbelievable they made everything happen for me and my price from the owner Konrad was amazing.They made me feel so at home the place is so very spotless I mean it is very clean and organized if I could go anywhere else again I would certainly go back to this again I cant say how much I enjoyed having our party with them they were just absolutely wonderful I think them from the bottom of my heart they made our party day so very special
I have recently been at party and just would like to say that gala banquets its my favorite place for any occasion best food I mean really good food even for take outs if u ever need to. Owner is super sweet and always nice answer any questions u will have and give good advice what will u may need for your party. And of course my favorite bartender Ewelina lovely very hard working helping with serving food as well as taking care of the bar marking sure everyone is happy nice and always helpful with lots of great drinks 😉Thank u great palce for any occasion
I have seriously never had better polish food anywhere, let alone at a banquet hall, except my grandmas. It was so good, I asked the server to send my compliments to the chef. Delicious!
My friend had her Quince here,it was one of the best parties Ive been to. I loved the food, and the service was great. The people were helpful and polite.
My wife and I Just had our second party at Gala Banquets; a Christening party for our daughter Olivia. It was an amazing night thanks to the great food and entertainment provided by Conrad and the rest of the staff of Gala Banquets. The area is spacious and elegant. We had approximately 90 people both Polish and American attend with children and there was still plenty of space to eat and dance the night away. This is an excellent place for all events. My wife greatly appreciated the changing table in the bathrooms. Finding parking in the city can be rough. However, Gala Banquets offers free valet parking and has arranged overflow parking across the street.The food was amazing! We got the Platinum Package and the food never stopped coming. My personal favorite was the mushroom soup, but we also had a full dinner complete with Pierogis, Salads, Meats, and Ice cream. Additional appetizers of Salmon, Tatar, various meats, deserts and others were severed after the meal. The staff was very friendly and courteous ensuring all our guests were happy and well taken care of throughout the night. Our friends and family were talking about the style and class of the banquet hall for days after.An open bar is a must at most parties and Gala Banquets will not let you down. It is a full bar including top shelf liquors, wines and beer. DJ Leon, recommended by Gala Banquets was amazing. During the meal he entertained the kids with music, games, and gifts. He played a variety of music that kept everyone on the dance floor.I cannot say enough about Gala Banquets and DJ Leon. Thanks so much for a wonderful night filled with food, dancing, and celebration. We will definitely come back for future parties.
Outstanding food and excellent customer service. It was a perfect venue for a Christmas party. Kids loved it.
2019 new year . The band was completely below deepest bottom. They not afford even one star, but there no other option, this band should retire long long time ago
Gala is the place to go far all your special events. I have multiple events there from weddings, holidays party, birthdays party etc. The service from the staff is outstanding and the food is incredible. Special thanks for Konrad and Ewelinka :)
2019 New Year Eve during celebration party the band preformance was horrible.Nothng special by the food was offered and this stuff had nothing to do with previous broadcast advertaistmentInterior design & total decoration were both looking great.Bartenders service was relatively & positive .
Had our baby shower and wedding shower here. Great polish food and kind service!
We had my wifes 60th birthday at Gala. Nothing I could write could describe how wonderful of an event that Conrad and his staff provided my family.The center was decorated beautifully, the food was the best Ive had in over 40 years of traveling to Chicago.The pork tenderloin in apricot sauce and strawberry-walnut salad were worth the price of airfare from Arizona. No 5 star restaurant in Chicagoland has better food.My father had never eaten pierogies, now he is a big fan!Our entire extended family was very impressed.This will not be our last family event at Gala.Love you guys, Betsy and Robert.
Thank you for the wonderful service and delicious food! Quality was great. Highly recommend it!
Excellent place, the servers were really nice and sweet, the food was very delicious.
Its a nice place clean, good food only one reason I didnt give you five stars is a bartender she was so mean oh my God shes name was Ewelina never take that lady for your bartender
The best place i ever been too staff very professional and friendly My wedding was amazing food delicious if i ever will do any type of party it will be at Gala for sure thank you very much for having us :)
THE SERVICE SUCKS IN THIS PLACE... DO NOT HAVE A PARTY OVER 50 PEOPLE BECAUSE IF YOU DO THEY CANT HANDLE IT.. SOME OF THE TABLES HAD TO WAIT UNTIL MOST OF THE OTHER TABLES WERE ALMOST DONE EATING AND I HAD 130 PEOPLE AND SOME OF THE FOOD CAME OUT COLD.... I WOULD NEVER DO BUSINESS WITH THEM AGAIN...THEY RUINED MY WEDDING DAY.......
I had a party here recently.The staff here is very good and helpful.The food is so delicious!!The decorations here are so beautiful!This is a perfect place for you.I would recommend this place to everyone.
Excellent experience, very friendly atmosphere.Great verity of deliciouse food.Thank you Gala.
Gala is the best place for all your events. You can decorate it however you want to, food is delicious & fresh and people working there very nice & professional thats why i really dont understand the review from Kaskader??? The bartender at Gala, the blonde girl Evelina whos always there, is very nice, fast and makes awesome drinks. Maybe this one time she had a bad day ( lets be honest, everyone has one of these) or maybe Kaskader was rude to her... who knows? My point is that i was at Gala approximately 7 times and also had my daughters Christening there and every time my overall experience was wonderful!!! Thank you Gala Banquets.
The best place ever !! We had our daughters first communion party two weeks ago and everything was the best and amazing !!

HelloLast year we had a wedding at Gala Banquets and our memories are so wonderful that we decided to visit Konrad and his great crew in this years New Years Eve party.Moreover, apart from guests from Poland, we also took 28 friends and acquaintances with us.The fun was great, the food was great And the atmosphere was indescribable.Thank you so much for such a great fun and I recommend everyone to visit Gale at least once, and you will certainly come back there.Best regards and I wish you a Happy New 2019 Year 🎉🎉🎉
I am delighted with the New Years Eve party at the Gala Banquet. I express my thanks and appreciation for such a wonderfully prepared event. Konrad, the owner stood up to the task and made every effort to make such a special event more enjoyable. It was nice to listen to the live orchestra, the band played songs from our 60s, 70s, 80s. We were impressed by the nice mood, great service and very good food. I recommend this place to everyone, our friends were also very happy.
Scary, New Years Eve, the musicians get the balance, or the same row flies twice, or the song starts and ends after 15 seconds, they are discussing something among themselves. The repertoire is terribly poor, a lot of falsehood, the band stopped somewhere in the 70s. Even when they play the disk, there are no hits like dr. Alban dj bobo, la bouche. I advise against. I have a video .. tight, food decent but no fireworks, no parking
An absolutely wonderful place for your celebration! From day one, Conard assured me that I didn’t have to worry about anything and to just relax and get ready for our daughter college graduation!As he said, so it was!The food was very tasty, served on time and hassle-free, the person who worked the bar very kind and quick. The staff who worked were attentive and friendly so much that the older guests were approached and asked if they needed anything to bring .. they were wonderful !!The room was remodeled, with wonderful details! Clean!If you want to celebrate carelessly make your celebration a Gala banquet!An absolutely wonderful place for your celebrations! From day one Konard convinced me that I don’t have to worry about anything but to relax and get ready for our daughter’s college graduation!As he said, so it was!The food was very tasty, served on time and without any problems, the person who worked behind the sledge was very kind and fast. The staff who worked were so attentive and accommodating so much that they approached the older guests and asked if they needed anything to bring .. they were wonderful !!The hall has been refurbished, with wonderful details!
