Planning a quinceañera is about creating a night that feels as grand as the milestone itself. At Portobello Banquets, we understand the importance of this tradition, and we’re here to help you create an event that is not only memorable but also filled with joy and excitement for everyone involved. Located in Oakland, NJ, we’ve been hosting special events for over 30 years, offering a perfect blend of warm service and a versatile space that can cater to your unique vision.

A Space to Celebrate in Style

If you're planning a lavish quinceañera or an intimate family gathering, Portobello offers multiple rooms that can be tailored to fit the mood and size of your event. Our venue is designed to offer flexibility while maintaining a welcoming and elegant atmosphere. For a larger celebration, you might choose our Dome Room, which comfortably accommodates 70-120 guests, or combine it with our Annex Room to host up to 250 guests. This spacious layout gives you ample room for dancing, socializing, and capturing moments that will last a lifetime.

Delicious Dining for Every Guest

One of the key aspects of any quinceañera is the food, and we take pride in offering a variety of menu options to suit all tastes. From a buffet-style feast with choices like penne vodka, chicken marsala, and eggplant parmigiana to plated dinners featuring filet mignon or grilled salmon, you’ll find something for everyone. To keep the energy high throughout the event, our cocktail hour and buffet stations offer a selection of appetizers, including mini sliders, shrimp, and bruschetta, which your guests can enjoy as they mingle.

Customizable Menu and Extras

A quinceañera is all about personal touches, and we’re here to make sure every detail is exactly as you envision. Customize your dessert options with a special celebration cake or Italian pastries, and add a raw bar or brick oven pizza station for an extra touch of indulgence. We also offer enhancements like a champagne punch bowl or mimosa station for guests to enjoy during the reception. And with a five hour premium open bar, your guests will have the perfect drink to toast the birthday girl all night long.

What to Expect from Our Team

With over three decades of experience, we take pride in offering exceptional service, allowing you to focus on enjoying the event rather than worrying about the details. Our staff is dedicated to ensuring everything runs smoothly, from the first cocktail to the last dance. We also provide helpful options like gold Chiavari chairs, linens, and specially designed event spaces that will create a cohesive and beautiful look throughout the venue.

A Convenient Location with Beautiful Nearby Photo Spots

Portobello Banquets is conveniently located in the heart of Bergen County, NJ, making it easy for guests from surrounding areas like Franklin Lakes, Wayne, and Mahwah to join the celebration. After the ceremony, you can take stunning photos with a variety of scenic backdrops to choose from, including our elegant interior and the nearby area around Ramapo Valley Road. These locations will create lasting memories captured in every frame.
