All my dreams came true.

Gisa and the team at Il Gabbiano were AMAZING. Nothing but compliments from all the guests about the food, the staff, the beautiful octagonal salle.
Meeting with Gisa was always easy. She was incredibly accommodating and made all my fairy tale wedding dreams come true. 3 weeks later and guests are still talking about the appetizer stations and sweet table! If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! Strongly recommend!!!
You guys are the best! Lots of love, Christine and Ryan

Everything we wished for

Everything was smooth and easy when dealing with Luciano. We got everything we wanted for a reasonable price. The food was amazing, hall beautiful and service was excellent. Everyone commented on how great the food and service was.

Magical Wonderful

Buffet Il Gabbianos in LaSalle... made my wedding the best night ever imaginable. They went above and beyond my expectations surely leveraging their many years of experience to make the evening magical. The food, the service the decor and usually when dealing with vendors its a difficult complicated time. Gisa & Luciano were anything but complicated. They were a pleasure and a comfort the entire time. This venue is truly a gem and I reccommend anyone to have any kind of party here.

Happily married ❤️🤗🙏🏻

We had our wedding Ceremony and Reception at Il Gabbiano. We had relatives coming from abroad for our wedding. So we had two (2) halls connecting to each other, one where the ceremony was held and the other for the reception party. Our guests truly enjoyed and loved the idea that there was one place for both!! no running around and no getting lost or stock in traffic. The decor for both, the Ceremony and the Reception was gorgeous🤗 The food was served quickly, was kept warm and was delicious😋The service team was professional and courteous💪🏻 Only one down comment from one of our guests, he mentioned that the restaurant banner outside, is not very visible. But everything was amazing! We had a blast and we were satisfied with the decor, food and service provided on our special day. Overall, we are very happy we choose this venue for our wedding. Grazie mile from Gino & Karla💞🎉

I have worked with Buffet Il Gabbiano for the past 10 years; they cater all kinds of events for me such as cocktails, lunches and dinners for small and large groups of people. Their service, quality and flexibility is what has kept me a loyal customer. They are easy to reach and work with and when I have had 'special requests' such as an English tea party or other special and different kind of events and catering requirements, they always come through with a product that is attuned to my needs and is of a high caliber even if new! I would highly recommend them to anyone!

We had our wedding at Il Gabbiano and our guests are still talking about the reception. The decor was beautiful, the food was served quickly, was kept warm and was absolutely delicious. The staff is exceptional. They went above and beyond to make our day memorable. The service team was respectful, professional and so kind. I am so happy we chose this venue for our wedding and recommend it without a doubt.
