Booked The Mezzanine at Pedro's Wine Bar
5.0
We hosted our engagement party here and couldn't have been happier with Pedro's! The food was delicious and really wowed all of our guests. The wines stole the show too, all of them were exceptional and really well priced. Pedro and his staff were incredibly helpful and accommodating, both on the night and when planning the event beforehand. They predicted all our needs before we needed them and really took care of everything so we were able to relax and enjoy the party! The space itself was perfect for our party too, it felt private and at the same time spacious. We will definitely be recommending Pedro's to our friends for their events in the future. Thanks so much Pedro and to all your great team as well!
