We're always on the lookout for a great event venue. The Ronald Reagan Presidential Library & Museum has views for miles, exceptional food, and a time capsule experience.
Set across 400-acres in the hills of Simi Valley, the property offers a number of elegant spaces, from the Air Force One Pavilion to the White House Rose Garden, perfect for gatherings of 10 to 1,500 guests. And every event—whether intimate or grand—receives the white glove presidential touch
When Executive Chef Arnold Preciado first started at The Reagan Library, he dove deep into the Reagans’ culinary likes and dislikes.
“Mrs. Reagan ate very, very light,” Preciado says. “Her go-to was the Nancy Salad—a simple mix of chopped romaine, turkey bacon, and avocado, like a light Cobb. That’s what she’d snack on when visiting. As for the President, he loved heartier dishes—his famous minestrone soup, chili with cornbread, and of course, his meatloaf sandwich. And let’s not forget his beloved Jelly Bellies.”
For the culinary event program, Chef Preciado recreated these favorites, alongside his own famous 10-hour short rib.
“It’s always a hit,” Preciado says. “Especially around the holidays, it’s all anyone orders. The word has spread.”
And best of all, you and your guests can have dinner under an actual Air Force One that's served seven U.S. presidents.
