We held our company's annual Oktoberfest event at The Centre at Lakewood for the second year in a row, and it was absolutely fantastic! The venue is beautiful, spacious and perfect for large gatherings. Mark Rivera, the catering director, went above and beyond to ensure everything was seamless. His attention to detail and professionalism made the process stress-free. The food was delicious, and the staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating. We could not have asked for a better experience and look forward to coming back next year. I highly recommend The Centre Lakewood for any event!

We held a ball for approximately 250 guests on March 16, 2024, mostly high school JROTC students. Venue was great--we had plenty of room for the tables and a dance floor; the stage was fantastic for setting up the DJ; the food and staff were great!; lighting and temperature were great! We kept the costs down with a buffet option. Mark Rivera was very helpful with all of our requests, needs and questions up to and including on the day of the event. We plan on using this facility again.

I had a wonderful Mother's Day brunch at The Centre in Lakewood, California! The attentive and polite staff (Mark), along with the welcoming host (Gisselle) at the entrance, surely added to the enjoyable experience. It’s the perfect place to celebrate such a special day.

If you are looking for the perfect venue for an event, Look NO further, The Centre is THE PLACE!! From day one with meeting with the director of events, Mark Rivera, to the day of our event, we had nothing but GREAT SERVICE. We sat with Mark and let him know what we needed, and he worked with us to select the perfect menu, the perfect set up for our event, and I left there knowing Mark had taken all the stress away.

On the day of my sister's Celebration of Life the Great Service continued. The staff was Amazing. They helped whenever we needed extra help. They went above and beyond what was expected. They never made us feel like we were bothering them with our extra requests. Great Service with a Smile Always.

If you are looking for a venue that serves Great Food, this is the place. They have an excellent selection of meals to choose from, and we ended up selecting the Soul Food Buffet. Oh Boy, was the food AMAZING. One of the most important things in a Samoan Event is the Food, if the food is not good, then no matter how beautiful everything else is the guests will only talk about the food being terrible. Well, ALL our guests had nothing but great things to say about the food, that means everything we planned for my sister's Celebration of Life was Beautiful.

This will not be the last time we will use this Venue. We will be planning future events here.

Thank you TGIS Catering for the Delicious Food, and thank you Mark and the crew for the Great Service!!!
