We are excited to announce the addition of The Velvet Glove to our Darlinghurst dining experience.

Nestled on the edge of Darlinghurst, boasting a view of the iconic Coke Sign - often referred to as the beating heart of Sydney - this swanky bar/restaurant offers a truly unique dining experience with a short but sophisticated menu, well-crafted cocktails and a thoughtfully curated wine list.

Step into a beautiful Art Deco inspired dining room with slick marble and granite surfaces, low lighting and plush velvet furniture, via a discreet entrance-way off the intersection of Darlinghurst Road and William Street. Take a seat on a comfortable leather and chrome bar stool for an intimate chat with the friendly bar staff. Alternatively you might prefer to sink into the pink velvet swivel chairs or be seated at one of the indoor or outdoor terrace tables. The tulip glassware and high-end dinnerware makes every sip or bite feel decadently indulgent.

The multi-media screens above the dining room showcase a collection of famous art images, courtesy of partners ART Plus Gallery, creating the perfect backdrop. The generously proportioned terrace ( covered for all weather ) floating above the buzz of William Street, dressed in lush plants and softly lite nickel & glass lanterns has an enchanting romantic vibe.

Explore the tailored wine list and food menu, especially designed to delight the senses and elevate your dining experience. The servings are generous and well-presented, with an emphasis on sustainable seafood and meat. With French inspired cuisine you can choose from a variety of dishes including a half-dozen Appellation Rock Oysters, shucked to order, with lemon & raspberry vinegar mignonette or Coral Trout Fillet served with blistered heirloom cherry tomato, capers and a green olive cheek puttanesca.

Venue Manager Ardie and his team are looking forward to hosting our guests for entree in this brand new space. We can’t wait to introduce this venue to our guests, whom we are sure will appreciate the polished professionalism of Darlo’s newest arrival.
