El Caribe Country Club

Wedding reception was AWESOME! The staff is supper professional and personable. Big space, decoraded tastefully and the food was amazing. The staff weights on you hand and foot, you will never have an empty glass! I enjoyed my night emensly and cant wait to go back.

I recently had my daughters Sweet 16 here and it was the best decision my family could have ever made. It was scheduled for January 23, 2016 (the day of the snowstorm that shut down the city). The owners and staff were more than willing to change the date to ensure that my daughter’s special day would be a day to remember. Everyone from Phil and the entire staff worked effortlessly to create a magic night. The food was superb the service was unbelievable each and every one of our guests were so impressed! Every aspect of this venue is outstanding. Each and every staff member was attentive and easily assessable.
Needless to say, no matter where my daughter may roam, she will be coming back to Brooklyn to get married here! Thank you for helping make an amazing memory for our family!

Came here for a holiday party and the venue is so cute. Everything is very festive and lit up. Very pretty. Idk how big the entire place is but the room I was in for the party was a good size. Prob around 150 – 200 people. The bathroom is nicely kept. There’s valet parking and coat check too. The food was ok. I didn’t try everything but from what I did try, it was ok. The eggplant was good though. Would love to come back for another party event or wedding

I got married at El Caribe in October and it was beyond perfect. My family and friends cannot stop talking about it. Ralph and Giuseppe were the best and did everything to make us happy. It is the most beautiful place and so elegant. The food was delicious and the Viennese hour was to die for ! I wish I could relieve the night over again.

Amazing food and truly professional! They honored all requests we had and made our wedding day extra special!

Walking into this place I knew it was going to be beautiful. starting off with the cocktail hour was definitely one to remember. Even though i was face planted into my 7 servings of food, i do indeed remember the pros
and cons of this place. The ham and London broil were very tasty, cooked to perfection. if you don’t already all know I am obsessed with cheese and they had a fresh mozzarella bar. The Mexican working there even had a bucket of salt water to spice it up. It melted in my mouth, mama miaaaaaa, The calamari tentacles, spinach pies, tortellini, penne vodka, brushetta, and even the cavier were all great!!, thank goodness. The caviar looked like deer shit, but i think its supposed to, just saying. Walking into the reception room was magical. The dance floor was so big which is a very important factor in choosing a hall for a wedding. In my culture we do a dance where we kick our legs up in the air so the bigger the dance floor the better. i could hang onto the chandeliers the ceiling was so low. Thats the only part of the room I didnt like. There were beautiful tree branches among the ceiling, the purple and blue lighting was very romantic. before the bridal party even entered our waitress asked to take our order, which I thought was rude. then two minutes later they asked if we were done with our salads but we said we’re waiting for the bridal party to sit down. once the bridal party entered they took away our salads, that was the icing on the cake for me. I would still like my salad if there’s any left. there were seven choices for dinner I selected the filet mignon medium rare but it came almost well done and it was not cooked to perfection at all. thank God the cocktail hour made up for that. The Vietnamese hour for dessert was really cool. I picked out the bananas Foster chocolate mousse cannoli and of course the wedding cake which was amazing. overall it was a good and really pretty place. I hope I have another wedding there in the future so I can try the other entrées.

Recently attended my cousins wedding (07−03−15) at the El Caribe… the food, service and atmosphere were outstanding! Wonderful venue for any celebration!

For a catering hall I thought the food was exceptional. The wait staff was excellent and very accomodating. A little over the top with ambience, but throw in some good company and what you have is a fantastic night out.

I could sit here and write for hours about the wedding my now husband and I had at El Caribe on Friday night! It was absolute perfection from start to finish!
While planning it was always «what can we do for you?» They made the planning an absolute pleasure and were always available for any questions.
The venue itself is gorgeous and they have recently done the outside with fire pits… A really nice touch to the outside area.
The cocktail hour was AMAZING! You name it and it was there:) one of my favorites was the fresh mozzarella bar! Seafood options, pasta bar, fresh meat station, deep-​frying station, bread/​cheese station… CAVIER:) just really top notch and something people talked about the entire next day. The actual sit down dinner had a variety of options!!! One guest told me they didn’t even need a knife to cut the filet mignon– «it was like butter». We were able to select what beers were available and the bars were stocked with top shelf liquor. The martini bar was definitely popular — another guest stated, «drinks were ice cold and flowing»!!
As the bride… I felt like a star! Well taken care of the entire night. In the bridal suite they made sure to have food and drink for us before the party began. I truly did not want it to end:)
The staff is unbelievable — there to make you enjoy every minute of the night. They were always checking that we and all our guests had everything we wanted, from food and drinks to taxis.
Our guests couldn’t stop raving about El Caribe, from the food to the service — friends that have been to weddings and events all around the world in 5-​star places said that nothing came close to our wedding. I lost count of the number of people who said it was the best wedding they’d ever been to.
If anyone is second guessing where to have your next event — please feel free to message me. El Caribe should be your only choice!

I had my wedding here a few weeks ago on March 14^th. It was a dream come true and so well executed by the El Caribe staff from start to finish. I cannot say enough great things about the El Caribe, and for anyone looking to have a wedding in the NYC area, you are missing out by not going to check out this venue. It is a hidden gem and not to be overlooked!
When my now husband and I first started planning our wedding we had a few priorities — the food had to be incredible, the space had to be beautiful and pristine, and the service had to be top notch. His brother had gotten married at the El Caribe in 2012, and every time we went to see a different venue, we found ourselves saying «well this aspect is nice, but it doesn’t have _​_​_​_​that the El Caribe does.» Before we knew it, we were booking the El Caribe for our own wedding, and it was by far the best decision we made for our wedding.
Ralph, Terrence, Sal and the rest of the staff take care of you, make you feel like family and you are treated like royalty from the moment you walk in the door. Our guests are still talking about the food and the atmosphere (250 guests able to SIT during COCKTAIL HOUR! So much food that people actually took doggie bags home from the reception!) The branches in the main ballroom on the ceiling are so elegant and beautiful that our floral arrangements were able to be smaller and less expensive.
Go visit for yourself and see why we knew this was the right place for us. I guarantee you won’t regret it!

Our company holds our annual holiday banquet here. It was held in the topaz, emerald and tiara room. The venue was spacious and décor was stunning. Perfect for weddings and corporate parties. There was valet parking and coat check. The person at the coat check was very careful with hanging our jackets and belongings. Food was decent considering that they had different variety of ethnic dishes but tasted like any regular food from a buffet restaurant just presented more well. The open bar was well stocked with many types of liquor. The bartenders were fast and kept their composures even when there were many people they had to cater to. Dj was playing good music that you could actually dance to not like the edm and techno stuff. Missed the dessert part because I left early. Event was supposed to end at 11pm and I left around 10:20pm. Wish they had started serving dessert earlier. This place looked grand from outside to inside. Planning to attend next year’s party and may consider this place to host my wedding in the future. Only downside is that the location is a bit of a inconvenience if not traveled by car and that it’s not in the greatest neighborhood.

Amazing venue. Food was amazing, staff was amazing. My only thing was the hall was a bit smaller than I like, and the ceiling was a little low. But everything else was perfect.
Best part, venetian dessert buffet and pretzel and hot dogs outside while you wait for your car during valet.

Just went to a fantastic wedding at this venue. The staff was fantastic, the food — amazing and the place was really pretty.

I can not express how amazing this place is. I just had my wedding there last night and it was the most amazing wedding ever. The service was unbelievable. There was not 1 person unattended to. When someone’s drink was running low, by the time they were done there was another drink being handed to them. The food was unbelievable. From the moment the bridal party got there I was treated like a queen. Every single thing I could imagine wanting my wedding to be, el caribe delivered and then some. I would recommend everyone to have your party there. I can’t wait to be invited to another wedding there so I can really relax and enjoy the food!!! Thank you El Caribe for making my wedding so amazing.

We had out wedding here in November and we still have guests telling us it was the BEST wedding they have ever been to. The El Caribe was a perfect fit for us and we will certainly be booking as many of our future events here as possible. I would strongly recommend them to anyone looking for an A1 venue.

Came here for a winter wedding. It’s pretty inconvenient to get here via public transit, especially when it’s snowing, but the venue is so beautiful, it’s worth it. Every single room is so pretty here — I even peeked into one of the other large rooms and it had silver branches with Christmas lights set up probably for another party. I would consider having my own wedding here, if only it wasn’t so far…
The food was mostly delicious. I ordered a filet mignon and surprisingly, it didn’t fall flat like other catered food — it was soft and tender. However, some of their other offerings, like pasta and pieces of steak offered at cocktail hour were not that great. The desserts for the wedding were amazing and I regret not being able to try all their pastries. The fruit tart was my favorite and made the wedding cake taste bland.
Service is very good — the waiter for our table was attentive. Although the bar staff didn’t seem that knowledgeable about drinks, he was very nice and obliged my attempt to make a sidecar.

The place is amazing. The interior the exterior are great for large gatherings, events and with the holidays coming up parties… The only negative I had is the food… I was not impressed with the food at all. It was filled with too much salt, at some point the appetizers were going to give me hypertension

Dont get me wrong, the décor/​place here is beautiful. Pretty good for a location in brooklyn. HOWEVER, the catering services that comes with this establishment SUCKS. i am not speaking about the appetizers because i did not eat it. I chose to have the filet mignon well done as a main course. How are you going to tell me that this bleeding piece of meat you brought out is well done? and ask me to keep cutting into it to realize it is well cooked?! I may be young but im not stupid. If you want to have worms in your gums then YOU eat it… never again…

Great Catering, people and Rooms, Perfect for all occasions. We hosted Many events their, and they always turned out Great.

Went here the other night for the NYPD Policewoman’s Endowment Association Dinner.
The cocktail hour was fantastic. There was a carving station, pasta station, cold anti pasta station, ribs, eggplant rollatini, sausage and peppers, calamari, stuffed pork, etcetera, etcetera. We were stuffed before dinner. And the bartenders had a heavy pour. Nice.
We were so stuffed, we took home most of the chicken entrée and all of the filet mignon entrée for dinner the next night. And it was delicious.
