The Centre at Arbor Connection
Sam Ahmad and Rosco Sayyar are long time business partners. They are best known in Douglas and Paulding Counties as the owners of the gourmet Italian restaurant, Sam & Rosco’s. In 2008, they embarked on a new business venture known as The Centre.
The Centre is an all-inclusive, elegant event facility. It’s the perfect place for all your personal and business affairs, including conventions, receptions, corporate meetings and events, weddings, family reunions, proms and similar occasions. They can provide everything you might need – a dance floor, staging, valet parking, coat checks, wireless internet, audio-visual equipment, and absolutely delicious food. Sam says, “If we do not have it here already, we’ll find a way to get it for you.”
In The Centre’s 17,000 square feet of space, there are four separate event rooms, a beautifully decorated entry way, and a state-of-the-art kitchen. The rooms can be used individually or combined to create larger spaces. There are two adjacent rooms on the more intimate side of the building that will accommodate parties of up to 180 seated and 250 standing. In the more spacious portion of The Centre, there are two rooms that can be combined to host an event of up to 650 people for a stand up reception or 450 seated guests.
On site catering is available from Sam and Rosco. They have a variety of menus and offer delicious foods that will satisfy any style of event; a breakfast business meeting, a down-home family reunion, and the most formal wedding reception, just to name a few. Your event can be a sit-down meal for breakfast, lunch, or dinner or catered buffet-style. Hors d’oeuvres and afternoon reception menus are also available.
To give you an idea of what you and your guests can enjoy, they offer sesame-crusted teriyaki shrimp, marinated pork tenderloin, creamy beef stroganoff, seafood lasagna, roasted Cornish hen, savory beef medallions with wild mushrooms, or herb-crusted salmon. Their delicious hors d’oeuvres include bacon-wrapped beef medallions, mini crab claw, jumbo gulf shrimp, coconut battered chicken tenders, and assorted crostini crisp breads. They also offer a tasty variety of desserts including Key Lime pie, chocolate mousse cake, New York Style Cheese-cake with raspberry sauce and Tiramisu, just to name a few.
The Centre is located at 7475 Douglas Blvd. off Hwy. 5 in Douglasville; just a few miles away from I-20, Thornton Road and the airport, thus making it a prime location for both private and corporate events.
