    Dropped in for a visit on Friday evening to take in the performance by the Divertimento Orchestra. An exceptional performance, we loved every minute of it. Great sound, well lit, friendly people, looking forward to when they install stadium seating.

    My choir uses the banquet hall for our weekly rehearsals. It's a great space and suits our needs. Thank you to the staff.

    Wonderful divertimento concert!

    Marachino pinwheels were spectacular, perfect bread to cherry ratio. Salmon sandwiches were strong, but could have benefitted from something acidic to cut the richness of the mayo. Cutting off the crusts was a nice touch. All in all, a strong culinary performance.
