"My fiancee and I held our engagement party dinner for 53 people on Saturday night. It was a complete success!! We had the 2nd floor to ourselves with open bar, passed hors d'oeuvres and seated dinner. We opted for table linens for a meager $25, which gave the room a formal polished look. The event coordinator, Nancy G., went above and beyond to respond to all my questions and requests in the weeks leading up to the event. It was not a short list from vegetarian meals, specific liquor, to a high chair, etc. She was always prompt, polite, and professional, and on the day of kept things moving. She even served drinks behind the bar when the bartender was really busy. We received rave reviews about the comfort and look of the room, the professional staff and delicious food. The only criticism was the kobe beef sliders were a little dry, but otherwise all the other food was well received. The staff worked hard all night and were very accommodating. I would recommend Brass Rail and Nancy to anyone looking to host a private event. We are from NYC, and it was a very convenient short walk from the PATH."
