Amazing wedding venue! We had our wedding at The Romanesque Room in 2022. Duane, Rosalinda, and their entire team were very involved, attentive, and made sure every aspect of our wedding day was covered. They allowed us to personalize our wedding day experience, while offering creative recommendations to guide our process. From the first look, to the ceremony, to the bartenders, to the reception, and to the last dance, Duane and his team hustled. And, we're happy that Duane was able to sneak into the 360 Photo Booth for a video! Thanks Duane, Rosalinda, and the entire Romanesque catering team!

This review is for Romanesque Catering who catered our event at the Castle Green in July. Duane and his team are so amazing and attentive! At our wedding they made sure that my Husband and I both ate as much as we want and that we had drinks available for us as soon as we we recessed down the aisle. On top of that, we were able to choose from many different restaurants for food which was amazing to have a collection of choices to choose from. 5/5 would book them again!

Had my wedding here June 2021. Ann went above and beyond to help make me and my husband's wedding dreams come true! She and Tony were so understanding, patient, and accommodating as we rescheduled due to the pandemic and had a strict budget we were sticking to. It is a beautiful venue, and the fact that bartenders, service staff, and catering are all included made planning so much easier. I 1000% recommend!

Grateful to have an iconic place open...great service and service The rear patio was charming and quiet

AMAZING! Got to experience this wonderful place this weekend. Anne was a phenomenal host, who made sure we felt comfortable and well taken care of. Chef Tony prepares the most spectacular appetizers and meal I've had in a longggg time. Try the steak wrapped asparagus *chefs kiss*! Jonnie, our server, was very sweet and patient. During Covid, restaurants are a hit or miss. This was definitely a hit! We weren't cold at all, because they had provided heaters to keep warm while enjoying the beautiful view of the Green Castle during our meal. I can't wait to come back!! Thank you!

Currently offering outdoor patio dining on Friday & Saturday evenings and Sunday Brunch! Reservations are preferred!

Amazing view and delicious food. I had the Wine Country Chicken paired with garlic mashed potatoes and vegetables and it was perfect. If you're in the Pasadena area make sure you stop by for dinner on Friday or Saturday and Sunday for brunch. You don't want to miss it!!!

Beautiful ambiance for dining outdoors at this historic location (you walk through this historic building to get to the outdoor dining--gorgeous architecture). The servers & host were attentive and gracious. We ate so well here!--the bruschetta and olive tapenade, surf and turf were wonderfully seasoned and they have amazing garlic mashed potatoes. Creme brûlée was yummy too.

The Romanesque Room is a gem that we found lurking in the shadows of its neighbor, the Castle Green. It is comprised of a charming banquet hall with beautiful columns and high arches, creating a domed ceiling, and it has its own bar, lounge area, and outside patio that's partitioned off. It comfortably hosted our party of almost 170 guests, without feeling cramped or looking too spacious. When my husband and I first saw the banquet hall 16 months before our wedding, we were ready to book for our reception. However, the real hidden gems of the Romanesque Room are its owners, Ron and Starla. They rent out this venue for events, as well as manage their catering company, Castle Catering. They make up a true mom-and-pop establishment, with no hidden strings or fees attached to their services. It was made crystal clear from our initial tour and meeting with Ron that he puts his clients above all else and isn't interested in making a profit off of unsuspecting couples simply wanting to celebrate their special day. Starla is the queen of communication, as she promptly returned all e-mails when Ron couldn't get to them, and they both were very thorough and comprehensive in their responses. My husband and I felt very well taken care of since the very beginning, and our correspondences with Ron and Starla kept us feeling informed, confident, and at ease. One thing to note is that they are old-fashioned and accept only personal checks--no credit cards, Square, Venmo, etc.--so be sure to have a little money saved up in the bank and come prepared with a checkbook for everything. Other things we love about the Romanesque Room are its diverse dining options, our ability to provide our own alcohol, and its exceptional service. We were having a multicultural wedding, and Ron was already aware of the Chinese ten-course, family-style banquet we had in mind. Castle Catering already partnered with our caterer, which made the planning process just that much more efficient. Other couples who plan a wedding know that a lot of the expenses that are attached to a budget or venue are the fees for having alcohol, and sometimes, one cannot even opt out from having a bar! For the Romanesque Room, all service and bartending fees were already included and made explicit from the beginning, and Ron even referred us to a supplier for our spirits. We ended up paying less than a third of what we were expected to pay per guest at other venues for a full open bar, with specialty cocktails per our request, for six hours. Finally, the staff at the Romanesque Room/Castle Catering are as friendly and as professional as they can get. I didn't meet them until our wedding day, but every interaction I had with them was pleasant, and they were very forgiving when I didn't know their names (sorry!) They worked seamlessly with the additional staff our caterer provided to plate and serve ethnic cuisine. In addition to all these things, Ron goes above and beyond to make sure that no detail is overlooked. Since we were planning our Pasadena reception from the San Francisco Bay Area, we had a bit of a handicap with coordinating with our vendors. Ron graciously met with another potential caterer, who wanted to discuss their options for setting up a pop-up kitchen, and also with our DJ/MC, who was in charge of our decor and needed to scope out dimensions and potential for lighting. All of this was done on Ron's own time, and he always reported back on the meeting and any decisions made, again setting the standard for service and communication. Being the hosts, we had the option of validating our guests' parking with our rental security deposit, although it's important to note that validation can only occur for the Schoolhouse Parking Facility (the parking garage directly across the street). We opted out of this, but we appreciated being told we had this available. Lastly, I will mention that Ron and Starla have a whole storehouse of decor at your fingertips. If you forget the box with your table numbers and stands at home or need a little something-something to fill an empty space last minute, don't fret; Ron will have it for you to borrow. Our day-of coordinator jazzed up many of our common tables with theme-appropriate knick knacks, and our wedding looked better than we could ever imagine. Thank you, Ron and Starla, for everything, and for having us like you would family.
