Turns out, the place is a classic. I ended up getting married there ... and everything was phenomenal. The staff from top down is excellent - particularly Roberto the GM and Ann Marie the head of sales ... Details matter, and Coco Pazzo knows details." — Kyle Evangelista, Vice President of Sales, Guerrero Howe Custom Media 300 W. Hubbard St. 312-836-0900 cocopazzochicago.com
