We are regulars and see the changes at the velvet. It was very obviously the, ‘seasonal’ workforce had started. Our server was probably the least friendly, disinterested, heavy handed that we’ve ever had in probably 30 + meals at the Velvet. Plates slammed down on table; hard enough for food to fall off. Take out box thrown from a fair distance onto the table. Complete disinterest in any menu queries or other requests. Generally just pretty bad service and tone. Not the norm at all. Luckily the food is usually pretty damn tasty and was good again.

Cod was good. Wine was good. Seafood pasta was worth maybe $2. Not $36. Very very little seafood, very very bland. Had to walk up to the hostess to get bill as service was painfully slow.

We stayed at the Josie for opening night of ski season at Red. The hotel was phenomenal but the Velvet was...pretty terrible. To start with, it's the only food in the mountain open past 7, which conveniently opened at 7pm that night. We had been planning this dinner for a few days, but upon being seated we were informed that they only had a partial menu that evening with appetizers and a burger as our options. At this point, everything else was closed within 30 minutes of us, so we literally had no other options. When asked why this wasn't on the website or OpenTable where the reservation was made, we were told to check their "social media" which was a Facebook page with 27 likes (they have easier to find pages but they have been "retired" We ordered chicken wings, fries and two burgers. The chicken wings were so overcooked that they were barely edible. Somehow the fries were undercooked but nearly burnt? We got seated at 7:05, we're greeted by our server at 7:25, received our order at 7:50, got a takeout box at 8:15, got our check at 8:45. They weren't overly busy and we watched our server converse with coworkers in between visits. Finally, they had live music across the restaurant but it was so loud we couldn't have a conversation at our table. You could hear it all the way on the 5th floor. Overall a terrible experience at this restaurant. I would advice anyone staying at the Josie to pack food or stop at the grocery store in Rossland before you check in.

November 29, 2024 3 couples: flat steak, duck, hamburger, cod, vegetarian (veg rissoto & Tuscan salad, and seafood pasta. Everyone raved about their choice; plenty of food; taste created carefully and intentionally. Our server was a delight. Desserts were very well received. We chose Basque Cheese Cake. It was divine.

Good service, nice drinks, but one of the entrees ordered left a lot to be desired. The short rib pasta was very bland and a disappointment, especially considering the price.
