      It was an awesome-amazing experience at my first trip to The Staaten. We came from Long Island so after a slow trip on the Belt it was a welcome quick trip once we got over the Verrazano Bridge. I like the fact that it was very easy to get to and the large parking lot made it very easy.

      It is a beautiful entry as you come in and I would say that this is a perfect place for a wedding, I was here for a Kiwanis dinner. We had around 120 people in a large room with plenty of space for more had it been necessary. The room is big and bright with plenty of dance floor available.

      The team here is marvelous. They are just so cognizant of what is happening around them. After ordering a simple glass of club soda twice... they brought me a small pitcher.

      Dinner started off with salad and a vodka pasta dish, both were really good. The main meal was a choice of Salmon, Chicken Rollatini or Pork Chop. All fantastic. It's nice that the bulk of the food was all served at the same time. It was incredibly tasty and hot... perfect. I am definitely looking forward to my next trip back here.

      KUDOs to the team at Li Greci's Staaten.

      Came here for a reception and they did a good job. It seems like they throw multiple events at once so parking can become an issue, but the staff inside was good at directing us to the right room.

      Our event had a cocktail hour with a whole buffet full of delicious foods from charcuterie items. sushi. chicken wings, shrimp cocktails, salmon, calmari, and oysters. Plus the open bar had a very attentive bartender. I had way too much food here.

      Then we went to another room for dinner where there was a big dance floor. The staff was great at bringing out each course. The prime rib was great but the baked potato was really hard. Then the dessert spread had cakes, an ice cream sundae station, and a chocolate fountain.

      I know a lot of the food was due to our host's picking some great items, but the food was almost universally delicious and there was plenty of it in a timely manner. It was a great place to celebrate a couple's wedding reception in style.

      Food and service is very good here with friendly . It started off with salad with a great dressing. Then with a vodka pasta dish both which were really good. And the main was a choice of salmon , flank steak and chicken parm. I had the flank steak which was very good for a tough cut of meat. Came with beans and a potato croquette . Wife had the salmon with same sides. We thought they both were very good. Ice cream station and cake topped it off. Was a good time here as most islanders book here . Been some time between visits here but still remains a good place for parties.

      I recently had lunch at this beautiful venue . It looks like a fantastic Wedding Reception destination. The Italian Wedding Soup was to die for! Got a huge plate if Linguini & White Clams with Clams with Shells on top. Very good. I highly recommend this place for the Lunch Special.

      If I could leave 0 stars I would. I have been to the Staaten before and everything was amazing! I planned my mother's 60th Birthday party and was so excited! i was told we would have one of the newly renovated rooms and when my father went to go pay the deposit he was shown a beautiful room. The day of my mother's surprise party, they put us in their downstairs room, which we were not shown (and they comfirmed at the party they never show this room). There was an old musty smelly rug, pillars of broken mirrors, dirty walls, paint of the chairs, floors held together by duct tape, 8 foot ceilings that make you feel claustrophobic. Instead of admitting their wrongs, they informed me it was a miscommunication and they offered a cheese board and a sundae bar! I was so infuriated that I didn't even think to ask for a refund or money back! Since I was angry, which I am sure I had every right to be for being put in a room we did not request, the host went around to our guests telling everyone I was crazy and asked my best friend if she was the nicer one. The lack of professionalism is disgusting. The icing on the cake is, I found out that someone else who had a party there a month prior dealt with the same situation! So the Staaten is double booking parties in a room that is beautiful and the day of the party, putting one group in their downstairs room so they can make money from all rooms! I am disgusted and it's illegal to show someone a room and put them in another. They should be ashamed of themselves! Do not trust your booking there because it may be a scam!!

      My daughters first birthday party was at the Staaten this weekend. They have recently renovated it and it's stunning inside. We had a breakfast brunch. Everything was delicious.
      Everyone was up for 2nds. Their sangrias and mimosas and blood Mary's were so good too.
      It was a great party. The owner was very helpful and kind when booking her party. He even came in to check on us. Always making sure we are happy and everything is running smoothly.
      Our servers and Maître d' were very helpful through the whole party. They did a great job. I highly recommend them. My guest were happy too. Two of my friends that attend the party plan on booking them for their next event. You won't be disappointed. Hope this helps

      The Staaten is a Staten Island catering institution.
      The Li Greci family has proudly operated this fine facility for decades. Ask anyone who grew up on Staten Island I will guarantee they have attended a communion, wedding, sweet sixteen or some combination of those at the Staaten.
      The food and service are always top notch.
      The decor can use some help as it's dated.
