I cannot say enough about the Velvet Glove.I was there last night with family, to celebrate a very special milestone birthday.Everything was impeccable. Staff was exceptional; especially kind and attentive to our guest of honour. Friendly and efficient, they went well beyond the call of duty to ensure that each and every one of us was taken care of and completely satisfied. (I imagine that was what they do for all of their guests.)I was impressed by the large selection of vegan and vegetarian options, and the fact that I was spoken to several times and offered delicious and unique suggestions. Good things are worth the wait. The beautiful presentation and quality of our entrees were excellent. They were works of art! The attention to the most minute detail was impressive and made us feel very special.I had difficulty choosing, because so much looked delicious. I decided on the Vegan Pho. It was light and tasty, with just a hint of ginger; exactly what I wanted. The tofu and pickled mushrooms were tasty, and the edamame and sprouts were crisp and flavorful. My portion was generous. Several others had the Northern Waters Char. One had the Manitoba Pike. Another had steak. Everyone was impressed by the quality of the mains and their very special accompaniments.If the entrees weren’t impressive enough, we were thrilled by the desserts! I had the Velvet Glove’s take on creme brulee; Hybiscus Creme Brulee, with strawberry jam and pistachio dacquoise. It was phenomenal! Gorgeous to look at, it was heaven to eat!We also tried the Chocolate Crunch Bar, which was deliciously decadent, and the Deconstructed Cheesecake. The latter was very good, although a more traditional constructed version would have been preferred by that individual.The Velvet Glove also had a vegan cake that was no short of amazing, again, with meticulous attention to detail and presentation.All in all, with exceptional food and service, we had a wonderful experience. Thank you to everyone who made our celebration extra special!
As one of my favourite restaurants we decided to spend NYE here. The presentation was outstanding however the taste left us disappointed. The menu was set so we didnt have much control over options. Oysters, Caviar, Seafood Stew, New York(recommended rare) were all near tasteless. Even the bread was terrible. Dessert Tarts and Palate Cleanser were very good. $280 bill(no alcohol). Service was outstanding as usual.
We arrived at noon for brunch and were promptly led to nice quiet table for two. The server explained the new brunch menu. I had eggs benedict and smoked salmon, my wife an omelet with mushrooms and gruyere cheese. We both ordered americano coffees. The brunch was excellent. I can’t say enough positive things about the meal. I ordered a ceasar made by the bartender at the table, a simple excellent brunch.
The Swizzle Styx dined here yesterday and it was fabulous as always. We started with the meat and cheese board which was excellent. We dined on the trout special, fish and chips, and mussels and fries and everything was great. Our server, Rod, was outstanding and the food was delicious and beautiful. Yes, this place is expensive but you get what you pay for in every way. Love dining here!
great decor, awesome staff, fabulous presentation, wonderful ingredients and you get to try stuff you wouldn’t normally find at most restaurants. That said, you are paying for all of that, and if thats not what your coming here for you might not be so happy with the price ;pit was delicious but so are less expensive restaurants 😉 i’m not sure if i would return due to the cost, but i will keep my eye out for their specials and if something catches my eye i may be back to try it out;)the boar was DELICIOUS omg i need to eat that all the time lol, the PB&C WAS GREAT!! and got to be honest here, unlike most restaurants the portion size for this was perfect it was sweet but when you were done you didnt feel like you ate a bag of sugar lol, the brined chicken was a tad disappointing, my crab cigar was awesome and for 18$ you can tell they used quality crab so i was ok with that! frozen peaches and creme was nasty i don’t want a fruit roll up thank you, and i dont care for coconut milk ice cream yuk! salmon tar tar that was given before appetizer was alright the only great part was the edible spoon it was served in. the salmon….. i’ve had better at an all you can eat sushi restaurant. the bison carpaccio was awesome, i’ve never had this and would definitely try it again who knew raw meat other than fish was delicious! i did notice the snail garden on their menu, that sounded very interesting!!!I would recommend you try this restaurant at least once 😉
Had a great dinner celebrating my girlfriend’s birthday. Kindly prepared a little decorations on the dessert dish I’ve ordered with words ‘happy birthday’. She surely love it. I’ve also ordered white wine follow with steak in medium rare, so well cook and juicy. Mushroom soup fresh and tasty. One fine restaurant afterall.
If the Nacho Libre burger from ‘Le Burger Week’ is any indication of the quality of the food here, then I will definitely be back to try a sit-down dinner in the future. The rest of the menu looks interesting and the atmosphere looks quite nice. The server was friendly when we picked up our order. We will be back!
