- wedding party
My niece had a wedding party there. It was beautiful!
- event inquiry
UPDATE: Manager responded after seeing this review. Halley, we exchanged emails AND met with you in person, and it's clear you do not remember the conversations we had or the commitments to follow through on your end. We've gone with another vendor for our event and could not in good faith choose Rhodora at this time. Thank you. ----- I wish I had good things to say about my experience at Rhodora. After visiting a few times, I inquired about holding an event at their space. Staff and management were unavailable after multiple attempts of contact and left communication unanswered for several weeks. When we did visit the space, the manager never followed up with a quote, email or any of the communication that was promised. I found this lack of follow through unprofessional and disrespectful, as we were trying to support a local business during this time. If you're looking for an establishment that respects its clientele try Bacchus, Cafe Paulette or one of the other great restaurants in the area.
- friends group drinks
Been coming here for awhile. Honestly some staff are absolutely lovely...but my experience tonight was a last straw. One bartender in particular is pretty rude, and told me as he has in the past that he doesnt have "the gear" to do a salt rim (a plate) even though ive had it plenty of times here by kinder staff. Tonight we had a larger table with friends but all individual tabs. When I went to close out mine, the bartender suggested to the girl he was taking to that my tab was the one she might be ordering to (i quickly shut that down as she was not in our party) when I went to pay the number was much higher than I thought possible. I asked to see an itemized list and they said they could only show me after I payed. After paying, I noticed the amount of margs was inaccurate and told the staff and they essentially told me I was wrong and too bad they couldnt do anything cause I had already closed out - as if i had a choice. Extremely disappointed and would be extremely wary keeping a tab open here.
- group night out
Such a lovely corner wine bar with plenty of drinks, bites and a cozy vibe. It can get quite loud (even in their additional space) but it's great fun with the right group of people 😊
