Testimonials

“Thank you and your staff for an incredible wrap party experience last evening. We have been getting calls all day long from cast and crew commenting on how great of a time they had. The venue, great food and friendly staff all made for the perfect way to celebrate the end of a long season of hard work.”
Steve Oster - Producer GRIMM
“I just wanted to say THANK YOU! Everything was great last night. Our hostess Niki was wonderful! She was on the ball with everything. She answered all of our questions and was extremely attentive. I know she had three parties yesterday but she did not show it! She was great! Everyone had a great time. The space that we rented was perfect, the food was great and the service was even better. I will definitely recommend Grand Central to my friends. Thank you again!”
Lindsay – Moda Health
“Fantastic venue for a youth birthday party! The large screens at the end of each lane keep the kids entertained and there are great games upstairs where multiple kids can play together-no need to take turns. Plus, you can keep an eye on the kids bowling while up in the game room. The staff was incredibly helpful and attentive and the food was great!”
Jenna Andrews
“Thank you for taking such good care of us yesterday…we had a great time! Our servers were fantastic, although I think we ignored our server at the bowling lanes…we never made it down there but I’m sure she would have been just as fantastic as our server upstairs. Everyone enjoyed the party.
Again, thank you so much and Happy Holidays!”

“Thanks for such a wonderful evening last night!
Everyone seemed to love it, and they can’t wait until next year (it’s likely we may even do a mid-year function; that’s how much fun everyone had). Aubrey, Emily, Tamara and the girl running the lanes, were excellent – please pass along my most sincere appreciation!”
