"I was invited to a family reunion and it was overall excellent 5 stars!"

"The place is beautiful but they need parking, especially for handicapped."

"I recently reached out to Elks Lodge 2235 in Carteret, NJ to inquire about pricing for an event. Unfortunately, my interaction with Kim was extremely disappointing. When I asked about pricing, she refused to provide me with any information unless I had a specific date in mind. I found this to be unhelpful and unclear. As a vendor who frequently recommends venues to clients, I was shocked by Kim's unprofessional demeanor. When I mentioned my profession and expressed my intention to share my experience with others, she became defensive and stated that she didn't need my help. She even went so far as to say that she wouldn't provide pricing information to me, which I found to be unacceptable. To make matters worse, when I informed her that I would be leaving a review about our interaction, her response was 'please do.' This lack of concern for customer satisfaction and blatant disregard for potential business is alarming. Overall, my experience with Elks Lodge 2235 and Kim's customer service was appalling. As a business, it's essential to provide helpful and courteous service to potential clients, regardless of their profession or intentions. I would not recommend this venue to anyone based on my interaction with Kim."

"Really nice venue that holds about 150 ppl. the hall looks really nice and it looks new. About $650 to rent with $300 security deposit. Must sweep and mop the floor after the event. They give you ample time to set up which is really nice! Party must end at 11pm. I love the fact that there is a backyard so you can have an additional activity outdoors weather permitting. My sister had a mini petting zoo outdoors. You can bring your own food, drinks and alcohol. Kim is really nice and easy to work with."
