My event was a great experience with dope energy! Keke provided a welcoming atmosphere, and was super supportive in making the event a success. I appreciate the love, respect, and friendship gained from this hidden gem in Chicago. I hope more people will get a chance to experience “The GARD3N”. It’s worth it ! Pro tip for future renters - coordinate parking spots before your event so guest will be prepared.
