40th Birthday Party · 30 guests · March 2025 · Trixie's
The moment I walked up the stairs, I knew Trixie's at Gem Saloon was perfect for my event! The price of the bar and food package was very reasonable and the team was super easy to work. Everything was taken care of, including a mic and speaker for toasts, serving plates and utensils for the cake I brought, to-go boxes so food wouldn't go to waste, and even a personalized welcome sign! My friends were impressed and kept asking how I found the place :)
