Oktoberfest Fine Dining at The Royal Suites

At The Royal Suites, our 55+ apartments offer more than just a place to live — they provide a vibrant lifestyle filled with connection, choice, and community. With a full social calendar, optional services, and monthly Fine Dining events, there’s always something special to look forward to.

Evening Highlights

This month’s theme was Oktoberfest, complete with authentic German cuisine and a festive atmosphere. Residents were especially delighted when Corrie, a tenant here at The Royal Suites, and her daughter Renata surprised everyone by dressing in traditional Dirndls. Their cheerful spirit brought plenty of smiles and laughter to the dining room.

After dinner, residents enjoyed live entertainment by Ron Edgley, whose music set the perfect tone for a warm and lively evening.
