Bidrage med feedbackWe went to an afternoon tea at Villa Cornelia on September 7th and were extremely happy with it!! The Villa is the perfect place for a tea with its' beautiful architecture and furnishings. <br/ <br/ The tea menu was extensive and I selected the hot cinnamon spice-my husband had the earl grey and both were perfect! I will try another tea the next time we go.<br/ <br/ We each had our own teapot and the designs were different . The settings were beautiful too.<br/ <br/ We started with delicious scones with clotted cream and preserves. All homemade!!!!!<br/ <br/ The sweets and savories were delicious! We had egg salad sandwiches on homemade bread, quiche, pulled pork sandwiches, cucumber sandwiches as well as ham and cheese sandwiches.<br/ <br/ The sweets were amazing!! Chocolate dipped strawberries, mini cheesecakes, mini carrot cakes topped with butter cream icing and sugared pecans, brownies and specialty cookies in the shapes of flowers, teapots etc!!! Everything was homemade.<br/ <br/ The service was great. We were treated to a tour of the Villa and had our picture taken upstairs. <br/ <br/ We heard that the afternoon teas will be about once a month and can be booked for groups as well. The menu may be slightly different for different teas, but I'm sure the food and tea will be delicious every time and look forward to trying more things!! <br/ <br/ We will definitely be back and recommend it to everyone!
Læs mereThe food was amazing! We had soup, salad, a shared appetizer of shrimp, scallops and calamari (which we usually aren't fond of but this was wonderful). Ribs so tender that they fall off the bones. The beef tenderloin was Julia's suggestion when I couldn't decide and she was spot on! The music on the front porch for their welcome to summer patio event was an added bonus. The music inside was also very nice, not too loud and suited the ambience. The staff was attentive and friendly and we had a wonderful time. We like to try out different places for fine dining and this is defiantly a go back to place! The glass of port for our special evening was also a very nice close out to our meal. Thank you for making out 25th so special
Læs mereA last minute booking for a business/corporate dinner on a Saturday evening. It was the perfect restaurant to accommodate our international guests. The service was excellent and the food amazing. The staff were very friendly, knowledgeable and excellent to work with. Chef Ryan took very good care of us we will be back!! A gem tucked away in old north!
Læs mereLet me begin by saying that as of August First, 2017 the Villa Cornelia is open with new owners and readers might disregard any comments before that date. My wife and I were visiting London Ontario and as a disclaimer, the house belonged to my aunt and uncle until 1986. We were greeted graciously, attended to attentively, fed almost extravagantly, this is not a microbrewery or German Restaurant, it is fine dining with a Canadian cuisine that uses locally sourced produce, bread, meats and fish. The building is an authentic 1892 Victorian town house appointed for entertaining. The owners have restored to the period.<br/ <br/ After a cocktail on the patio, an appetizer of gnocchi with bay scallop and shrimp, we were seated inside for dinner. I chose the Sous Vide Pork Ribs on goat cheese garlic mashed potato, honey carrot with cumin and pumpkin seed. My wife had the wilted spinach and goat cheese stuffed chicken breast served on garlic mashed with a duo of carrot and asparagus. Both were superb. For dessert, we had the blueberry sorbet, freshly made with an abundance of extra blueberries. The Villa Cornelia is modestly priced for the quality and service. The wine and beer selections are complete with something for each entree. The bar is well managed and stocked with some local rye, vodka and a selection of good whiskeys. <br/ <br/ I would highly recommend you try it and see if you share my sentiment.
Læs mereFirst time I have been to Villa Cornelia. Such an incredibly beautiful house. Inside it is furnished elegantly with sophisticated with background dinner music. My friend had the Roasted Vegetable Salad. I had the exquisite Charcueterie Board which was a huge offering with fine Brie, smoked meats, delicious chicken pate, pickled onions carrots etc. We both had the steak for our main, which was plated nicely and came with a most unusual yet enticing baked potato square and Toasted Brussel Sprouts with bacon. It was quite lovely. For dessert we both had the French Tartlett with homemade ice cream. It did not disappoint.
