   I recently had the pleasure of attending my first high tea event, and let me tell you, it was nothing short of magical! The theme was inspired by the beloved musical "Wicked," and every detail was thoughtfully curated to transport you right into the Land of Oz. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by enchanting decor that perfectly captured the essence of the show. The ambiance was whimsical yet elegant, making it the perfect setting for a delightful afternoon tea. Each tier of the tea stand was a work of art, featuring delectable treats that were not only delicious but also creatively themed. The highlight for me was the selection of cocktails, which offered a variety to choose from, including both non-alcoholic and alcoholic options. Each drink was creatively crafted to fit the theme, adding an extra layer of fun to the experience! And of course, the selection of teas was extensive, allowing everyone to find their perfect brew. Highly recommend it for a special occasion or just a fun day out with friends!

   We attended the Winter Wonderland Afternoon Tea. Service was impeccable - detailed, attentive but not hovering, and we were not rushed at all. They paid great detail to our allergy request. Given the food was presented on two separate tier servers, we would have appreciated being given a larger table (as there were several available at the time of our sitting). The food was very good, but not quite to the level The Velvet Glove has been known for in the past (though the portions were ample). We will be attending again.

   What a wonderful experience - this was our Valentine’s outing and it was perfect. The food was delectable, the service friendly and the ambiance was ‘winter wonderful’ in our warm, cozy booth.

   Food was good, but they need to be more carefull with there servings. For example our party of 5 had to racks one for 2 people and one for 3. The one ofe 3 people didnt have enough scones for 3 people . This is the second time here that this has happened and they dont give you another scone. The only other complaint is if you order the same teas they double up on the tea bags instead of giving your own teapot. 3 teabags in a little teapot is just wrong. Other than that its a nice outing.

   We take the family to tea once or twice a year. It’s always a great experience. Had great service from Rita again. More food than you can eat and it is beautifully presented and fun. We will keep going back.

   The appetizer cheese fondue was excellent. The selection of dippers was huge (fruit, vegetables, breads). The fondue portion was very large and filling and would make a perfect meal on it's own. The entre (steak) was done perfectly medium-rare, as ordered. The mashed potatoes, grilled asparagus and mushrooms were delicious. We couldn't finish our entrees because we were so full from the fondue. We each had 1 taste of the chocolate fondue, but that was as far as we could manage. This meal was perfectly prepared. Service was excellent. The dinning room was quiet and the music enjoyable. Thank you for a lovely evening.

   Have always wanted to do high tea. The food was excellent. My only complaint is that the bread on the sandwiches had dried out since prep was probably done in advance. Otherwise the service and ambience was great.

   We had a wonderful dining experience at Velvet Glove Restaurant, thanks to the outstanding service provided by Rod. From the moment we arrived, he was attentive, professional, and genuinely warm. He ensured our dinner was seamless, offering great recommendations and making sure we had everything we needed. The food was fantastic, but Rod’s hospitality truly made the evening special. Highly recommend this restaurant.

    The service was phenomenal and the valet parking was the best on a blustery night! As for the food - wow! The cheese fondue was delicious - so many things to dip! The steak was cooked perfectly and the accompaniments were delicious. By the time the chocolate fondue came out we were full but we persevered. The chocolate could have been a bit thicker and hotter but the taste was great. We’ll definitely be back.
