Five Stars Rehearsal Dinner Yelp Review

2010-06-29T11:35:00.000-07:00

6/16/2010 I had not been to La Residence for dinner in a few years, but was looking for a place to have my son's wedding rehearsal dinner and thought of them. The location was perfect for out of town guests who wanted to get the downtown Chapel Hill experience. And I loved the quaint (probably historic) home in which the restaurant is located, with a beautiful flower garden on the outside (which they use for their table flower arrangements) and lovely indoor and outdoor patio dining areas. Liz, their event coordinator, was very patient with me as I asked many questions (as I had never planned a big dinner party before). The night of the dinner, I was a nervous wreck and really didn't know what to expect. But my nerves were soon calmed. The evening was perfect! The wait staff were professional and accommodating, but most importantly to me, they were friendly and personable! (Landy was our favorite waiter!) And all of the food was absolutely scrumptious! We requested the Southern Buffet which included bbq pulled pork and bbq chicken, roasted potatoes w/ garlic and caramelized onion, macaroni & smoked cheese casserole, and several other sides. The homemade sweet pickles were to die for! We also had several pick-up dessert choices.....the 7 layer bars were sinfully good! Every single item on the buffet was delicious, and the evening was a huge success! I can't thank La Residence enough for making it such a memorable occasion. Many thanks go to Zeke, the dining manager. He was professional, and he bent over backwards to make the evening a success.....all while being friendly and lots of fun to work with! Thank you to all!

Valentine's Day Memories

2010-02-14T11:40:00.000-08:00

2/9/2010 My fiancee and I were having an early Valentine's dinner. The reservation instructions were followed to point, the staff was courteous and prompt while dealing with a large group (40+, very hard for server (from experience)). Our server (Landy), along with other staff had amazing recommendations and service. The atmosphere could not have been expected, wonderfully crafted. The chef was friendly and can cook! Thank you for the memories.

A Huge Success...

Thanks for an incredible Luncheon!

To all of the La Residence Staff,

Thanks so much for all of you excellent service for Will and Rachel's rehearsal luncheon. My mouth is still watering as I remember our meal! The display was not only lovely- it was also the appropriate temperature and a delightful summer combination of foods! The cake was so cute, and even better tasting! The wait staff was everywhere, ready to serve in any way. The flowers on the table indicated that a fabulous gardener had nurtured them! The event planner's recommendations were just what I wanted, and her attention to our needs with planning was greatly appreciated. Thanks again! Wilmington needs a "La Rez"!

Hi All!

I just wanted to send a quick note to thank you all so much for helping us have such a memorable wedding reception. I think everyone had a great time, the atmosphere was wonderful, and the food and drinks were perfect. The cake was so pretty as well....I hope my photographer got some good pictures. I couldn't have asked for things to go more smoothly, I would recommend La Residence to any other bride looking for a reception location. Thank you so much for your help the past several months!

A Big Thanks....

2008-02-20T11:33:00.000-08:00

To all the wonderful staff at La Residence:

A big, big thanks for making Vanessa and Brendan’s day a wonderful one. So many guests commented on how elegant yet relaxed everything was and we could tell that everyone was having a great time. The food and the service were above reproach, and the cake was not only beautifully decorated but had a deep luscious taste (unlike a lot of wedding cakes).

We thank you for the lovely flowers on the table which added so much flair. In the wedding photos the lattice and greenery of the patio show up so beautifully. You truly had exactly the right style and atmosphere for the type of wedding Vanessa and Brendan wanted.

Again, our deep thanks and appreciation.

It Was a Wonderful Experience!

2008-01-29T11:08:00.000-08:00

My daughter Andrea chose La Rez Restaurant for her wedding ceremony and reception site. To sum it up in 5 words: It was a wonderful experience!

The quaint and intimate atmosphere is perfect for such a joyous event. 150 people were in attendance. The service and food were excellent. The transition from the wedding ceremony into a reception site was seamless. While formal pictures were taken, guests were served appetizers and wine and the skirted tables magically appeared. Food stations were set, the DJ played songs for all generations, wine and beer were served and I cannot forget the beautiful wedding cake.

The food was delicious and the service impeccable. All I can say is that the planning staff at LaRez know how “to do” weddings! Again, I would highly recommend LaRez as a wedding and/or reception site.
