Macaluso's — Attraction in Hawthorne

If you want great food, service and an amazing modern venue with a big garden look no further and book an appointment today with Maroon.

We had our wedding at Macaluso's in September of 2019 before the crazy times started. Just recently in April 2021 we hosted another event for our daughters christening, going back to the same venue should say a lot about it already. We both worked in the industry for few years so our standards were pretty high when it came to our wedding and Macaluso's went above and beyond our expectations. From the first meeting with Maroon we knew this was the place we are going get married at, mind you this was when the garden wasn't even ready yet. The big room was just recently redone prior to our wedding so everything is brand new and state of the art they did not spare any pennies in the renovations.Their bridal suite is huge and there was plenty of space for us and the bridal party to relax. They will work with you any way they can to make your guests and you happy so just ask if you have any special requests. Their food was out this world and there was so muchhhh from the cocktail hour people were so full they had to dance some off to be able to enjoy the amazing dinner :) Our guest still mention the food from the wedding (almost 2 years later) to us when we see them. The venue is even nicer now with other renovations and the garden being done with an outside bar, water fountain and fire wall and plenty of space to relax and catch some fresh air or a smoke (They have tents out there just in case the weather has different ideas). They will let you bring your extras even few days before so you do not have to worry about all that stuff a day or two days before the wedding which was great as we had plenty of extras.The food, service and overall experience was just amazing top notch at both events and we are looking forward to find another reason to have another event at Macaluso's. They will treat you like family and take care of your needs. I keep on recommending Macaluso's to anyone looking to host at party in the future.

Thank you again to Maroon and the whole...

I was married here in August and there are just no words to express how amazing my experience was. From my first appointment to look at the venue, through booking and all the way until day of my wedding, I received top-notch service that simply doesn't compare.

Maroon was phenomenal; no matter what I needed, he made happen. I didn't have a coordinator and he helped me through so much, I wouldn't have been able to do it without him. He took the time to speak with me on the phone and meet with me in person as often as I needed. He gave me ideas and pointed out things I didn't even think to consider. We went through every part of the day and worked it all out so I could relax and feel as prepared as possible. Cannot sing his praises loud enough.

The entire staff went above and beyond to make my day special. Cesar was a presence, no matter what corner I turned. Whatever had to get done, he was already taking care of it without being asked. same thing goes for Elias. Day of, he was calm and cool and made the day run smoothly. Didn't think I needed a bridal attendant- then I met Nawal. She was by my side throughout the day, making sure I was taken care of. Literally, an angel.

From A-Z the Macaluso's staff was supportive, encouraging, and reliable. Planning a wedding is an extremely stressful time and they went above and beyond in every aspect. I was missing part of my flower delivery with aisle petals, flower girl petals, and my cake topper- the staff figured it out and simply fixed it.

Can't talk about Macaluso's without mentioning food. Guests are still talking about it a month and a half later. The spread that is put out is not just large in quantity, but DELICIOUS. Every single guest commented on the expansive variety of dishes as well as the superb quality of each dish. TOP NOTCH in every way.

I cannot recommend this venue enough! Delicious food, beautiful grounds, A++ staff. It doesn't get better than Macaluso's and I look forward to holding future...

I’ll preface this and say I don’t usually write reviews, but for Macaluso’s I had to make an exception. My wife and I just had our wedding there this week (Sunday 1/12/2020), and we could not have been more impressed with every detail of our wedding. Don’t let any construction fool you - the venue is absolutely stunning, the lighting, the white marble (the pictures come out amazing..) but the food and overall service I think separate this from any other venue. My wife is Brazilian and had a couple members of her family travel in from Brazil. It was important to her to have some Brazilian dishes during the wedding. We shared this with Maroon who worked with us in planning our wedding, and he couldn’t have been more excited. He introduced us to their chefs, and worked with us to make her dream a reality. The day of the wedding, we received so many compliments about the food… Even right now thinking about it makes me hungry, it was truly that spectacular. A week later people have messaged us about the deliciousness of both the cocktail hour and the main courses. There’s no other way to put it – the food is the best. The second differentiator was the service. Maroon is the absolute man, I have to say. In planning the wedding I found him to be both pragmatic in working within our budget, knowledgeable in his suggestions, and passionate about making our day truly a dream wedding. Other staff members during the day of the wedding went above in beyond in every aspect. My wife was treated like a queen, and could not have been happier. So many of our guests also complimented the service and were impressed to the level the staff would go to make them happy and comfortable. It was really an amazing day, and we’re thrilled we were able to get married here. Before the wedding you start to get a little stressed with the details, but Macaluso’s took care of everything, so we could focus on enjoying our day. We couldn’t have been happier...
