We booked the Atrium months ago to host our son's First Holy Communion Party.
When the Atrium buliding experienced a fire, we felt terrible for the staff. Everyone remained positive and quickly found us another venue to host our event.
Our greatest challenge was to create a safe meal to accommodate everyone's food allergies including dairy, shrimp, sesame and tree nuts. We felt strongly that the ENTIRE meal from start to finish be free of these allergens to ensure safety and inclusivity. Alex took our concerns very seriously and understood the severity food allergies pose. We met with chef Moe, who was also very understanding and knowledgable in the area of food allergies.
Chef Moe patiently listened and provided many safe options. He spent the extra time needed to call suppliers, read food labels and consult us along the way. We worked in partnership to find safe alternatives. Chef Moe created an ABSOLUTELY delicious meal that was beautiful and most importantly, free of all allergens! Everyone savoured each bite and were impressed with the food presentation.
We thank Chef Moe for providing a remarkable experience for our family. His food was made with compassion, empathy and love.

Service
All guests were impressed by the wait staff and service provided.
The Atrium provided our family a fantastic event. We highly recommend them and especially if you are looking for a facility to accommodate severe food allergies.
Just came home from The Atriums Grand are-opening. Alex and the team put on another spectacular evening.
I’d like to share a story with you from this evening as well. Nicole and myself we’re enjoying the amazing food and drinks when all of a sudden the drink slipped out of Nicole’s hand and a small amount landed on her white dress... a disaster to be sure.
Here’s the best part. From across the crowded room, Alex the owner and CEO spotted what was happening, rushed over and asked if we needed soda water and a napkin to clean up. Then he personally went out of his way to go to the kitchen get what we needed and come back. He didn’t get one of his many staff or his assistants to do this, he did this himself... personally. It was in that moment we felt like family.
This type of service and attitude has infected his entire staff and it shows. If you are still considering other venues for your event or wedding... stop. This is it, this is the place.
The Atrium really is Burlington’s premier banquet centre and conference hall.
Give Alex and the team a call, you won’t regret it. We have no regrets and we look forward to being clients of the Atrium for many years to come!
Love everything about the Atrium, the food, atmosphere and the staff! Can't wait for our next family get together. Owner Alex always knows how to do it up :)
