Garden Grove Community Meeting Center

I only give it 4 stars because of Christian P., he was the only nice one that helped me. He literally was at my call and emails. I went by 4 days before my party just ask 2 spikes questions that DID NOT require change to the party and this was so rude. She started immediately aggressive with «Yeah we didn’t respond because you can make changes to the party this late!»
Umm first that not what I wanted and second, I’m the customer so I would probably be a little nicer since we paid you. But Christian called me later that day to see the questions I had and was better already!
The day of my event was great just the little eye rolls and attitudes from the 2 ladies «helping» us, yeah no help but it was fine.
Other than that I loved the new renovations, it makes for a modern look. However, I won’t be using this venue in the future unless Christian is there to be my consultant.

I had to give a rating but my choice would have been 0.
Do not bring your grandparents or elderly here. My mother brought my poor grandmother here because she was excited to participate in the knitting class. This woman used to be one of the best and made some of he most beautiful things when she was younger. It’s not easy to leave a parent there in the first place for the first time because they don’t know anyone and are nervous. But to top it off, the point of these senior centers is to provide a service and opportunity for them to enjoy some time being active. When my mother arrived to pick her up, my grandmother was sitting alone w none of her things touched and LUCY the woman running the class blatantly in front of my grandmother rudely replied, «SHE’S UNTEACHABLE. She can only come sit in the class.» How is that compassionate?!? When my mother got home, she noticed she hadn’t heard my grandmother for a bit and went to check on her. The poor thing was sitting alone in her room in the her corner chair trying to teach herself how to knit again because she was so disheartened and embarrassed that the woman basically called her an invalid. Breaks my heart. My grandmother is still very capable. Went to the gym and drove a car until she was 90 years old. Has no problem carrying on a conversation, but may be slower at picking things up. I know LUCY may be a volunteer, but there’s something called empathy and compassion and class– she could have pulled my mother aside and explained. But instead she was a condescending asshole. Doesn’t she know that the hardest thing for any elderly person is accepting that they can’t do hints they once were able to? Unbelievable. She should be ashamed.

Don’t do business with place!!! No shame! Why give business to a place where they don’t care of your event but money? Have your memorable day else where!

If you want the same boring event with the same set up and plain look… this is the place for you. BUT If you are having an out of the box, exiting, with professional décor EVENT that needs special attention to detail along with understanding and customer-​service. This is not the place for you.

VOCOC & KOCOC mixer!

I’ve worked on the Asian Pacific Communities Health Fair committee for three years now. We’ve rented out this venue for our annual health fair and each year… the crowd just KEEPS ON GROWING!
They’re pleasant to work with. Always answer what questions i have and they kind of let me boss them around with how I want the room to be arranged.
They should just digitize and keep their reservations online already… they have to flip through this huge calendar to find out what event is happening on which day. –_​_​– stuck in the stone age y’all.
The facility is clean and staff are professional. I would use this facility for workshops or forums, but i think our fair is outgrowing the venue… we’ll have to see how it does this year to determine if we’re gonna have to go elsewhere.
Anyways…come out this Saturday, September 25^th from 9a to 1p to enjoy the health fair’s festivities!!! We’ll be administering 300 free flushots for seniors who qualify and other free screenings. Share the news!!!
