I cannot recommend Halo Lounge enough. Sal was an absolute dream to work with. From the day we signed the contract until the day of my... event, he was available for any questions I had — and I had many! The day that I paid my balance, he advised I purchase an adapter to ensure that my laptop would connect to his TV for the slideshow, and to come in a few days ahead so that we didn’t run into any issues on the day of the event. I wrongly assumed it would be fine, and he told me to come in and try it out anyway. Thank God I did because it didn’t work! (He even FaceTimed a friend to walk me through it!) The next day, he went in on his day off so we could try something else — Airplay worked! — which I really, really appreciated.The spot itself is incredible, and provided a great atmosphere for my party. I decorated according to my theme, but the room itself is nice enough to just roll in and host a party. Between the bar, the VIP lounge, the lobby (where the Photo Booth was) and the overall room, it was the perfect space for my 70 guests. I had so many guests tell me they were glad I had my event there so they could keep it in mind for their future events.I also want to give a huge shoutout to Joey, who oversaw my event last night. He was so helpful all night, assisting in setting up, cutting the cake and cleaning up.Highly recommend Halo for your next big event!read more

While the venue is a bit on the smaller side, the features definitely make up for it. Booked 5 months in advance and Sal was really... professional/welcoming. I had a party of 50 people and they fit comfortably... I'm not sure how 100+ have fit. But I guess they make it work. On the day of the party staff was helpful and attentive. Would definitely book again!!Also realized I didn't take many pictures of the actual space the day of.read more

Just celebrated another family 50th birthday party celebration at the Halo lounge. If you haven't already checked out this awesome spot you... really need to. It is the perfect venue for a party. The place is spacious, clean, and nicely decorated. Gives off a cool vibe all around. The staff for this party went above and beyond they took excellent care of us. Julio was our go to guy and Meg was behind the bar. They always checked on us to make sure we were good and that our guests were happy as well. The DJ was excellent he played a large variety of dance songs as well as worked off a request list we provided for the evening. Whenever we think of having a large get together with family and friends the Halo always comes to mind. Every experience we've ever had there has been spectacular. Sal the owner is always a pleasure to work with. He works with you, provide suggestions to ensure that your party is always a huge success!!!read more

Very grateful to Sal for working with me to plan an amazing Baby Shower for my sister. The food we ordered was great, we were also allowed... to use an outside vendor as well. The decorating team came in ahead of time with the owner's permission to see the best way to configure everything. Sal was so accommodating and I would like to extend my sincerest appreciation to the manager on duty Julio. OMG!!! He was so professional, attentive and personable. He made sure that I was happy with everything and I can't say enough about the impeccable service!!! Sal gives you alot of options which was very much appreciated!read more

When I did a walk through I immediately fell in love with the decor and the vibe of Halo. I had scheduled a graduation party for my son... which did not happen due to COVID. I spoke to Sal during the pandemic and he said he’d refund my deposit as things got better. To my surprise, a little more than a year, my deposit was refunded as promised. Thank you Sal and Halo. You kept your word especially during a time that was difficult for businesses and families alike. I’d love to give you 10 stars just for that! I’m definitely looking into using Halo at a future event and recommend it to anyone who wants a great party with reliable management. Thank you Sal.read more

This venue was Perfect in every way !!! The photo booth was in the front and out the way of the crowd . There was a lounge for our guest... who were finish eating . The tables were just right and up high . We did not hire a Dj so we were able to plug our device up to the Aux cord and play music . The music volume was just right because no one was talking louder than the music . The food was catered though Halo it was 50/50. But the owner Sal is that guy !!!!! He was very welcoming , respectful and any question I had he answered. If I were to through another event it would be here at Halo no doubt !!!!!! Thanks Sal for making my engagement dinner/party unforgettable!!!!! Much love Waynisha and Ty Williams .read more

I had my sweet sixteen here on Friday, January 17 2020, and it was such a blast. The staff was so helpful and responsible when taking care... of everything, and I didn't have to worry about anything during the party and I was able to have a really good time. The space itself is really beautiful and there was a lot of room for dancing and eating. We hired the DJ that was offered to us from Halo, and honestly out of all the sweet sixteens I have been to, the music was the best here. I was so excited for the party and they exceeded my expectations. So many of the people there messaged me after the party and came up to me when the party was over and told me how it was the best sweet sixteen out of all of the ones they had been too. I truly loved it here.read more

omg had my God son's second birthday party here, he absolutely loved it. the room is basic and quite large probably can fit about 50-65... people comfortably with tables and such. barista was the sweetest! you set your time for the location and set up and clean up, the staff hired were very helpful and sweet to help our family get in and out as stress free as possible. there is a small wall when you first walk in for party pics and then the hall itself leads right in.. a whole space for a dj booth is in the upper right hand corner ! and lights shined and my baby God son had the best time and his almost 22 yr old God mother might have had more fun 🙊 good place to have a party, can be made up to be casual or fancy depending on your decorations.read more

Had son’s 18th birthday GLOW party at the HALO LOUNGE this past Saturday, and it was the BEST PARTY EVER!! We looked all over and this was... the perfect place to hold our event! Awesome black light (perfect for GLOW PARTY) video screens everywhere, led lights on the bar look phenomenal & most of all just a great atmosphere to PARTY!! Sal was just fantastic to work with from the first meeting to the day of the party. He wasn’t even scheduled to be there, but because there was so much going on with everything we had planned, he came for the whole even anyway!! The food was truly YUMMY and there was PLENTY OF IT!!! Awesome Italian food (who doesn’t love Italian) and we got so much for the money!! Everyone said the food was delicious, the DJ Justin rocked the house, and was also very accommodating to everything we requested. We got to decorate the lounge just the way we wanted & all the guests are still talking about how much the party ROCKED!! Even brought in our own entertainment & Sal made sure everything went off without a glitch. Best of all, the kids had the BEST time & the birthday “man” had the time of his life!!!! Thank you so much Sal for making everything so special, being so accommodating & helpful to work with, and being there the day of the BIG event. Book the HALO LOUNGE...you and your guests will have a blast!!!!read more
