Transforming from a local bowling alley into a multi-faceted venue, which features both a well-appointed banquet facility and an award-winning restaurant, 'The Venus,' as she is known by the locals, has hosted countless weddings, celebrations, corporate events, galas and fundraisers.

Monsour Ferris built his business on quality, value and a commitment to service; a commitment that extended from the restaurant to the community, building a legacy of civic, educational and charity involvement that continued through his sons, Ronald and Monte."
