Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- This locale lives on in rock legend as the place where Bruce Springsteen met his bandmates (when it was the Student Prince). But it's built its own rep as a premier party spot with Italian food (and pizza!) that has critics buzzing.
- The venue is a cross between a large industrial space and a rustic barn, with a high ceiling and plenty of exposed beams, ducts, and metal pipes. Add dramatic lighting and a great sound system, and it feels like you're dancing beneath a meteor shower.
- And then there's the food: Their fresh take on Italian cuisine has garnered the highest rating from The New York Times. Plus, they offer sweet endings like Nutella pies and dessert platters made in-house and, of course, they serve some of the best pizza in the country.
