    Has the best time at Toodles! A group of girlfriends and I did the afternoon tea and it was just the right amount of food and unlimited tea! Steven was very knowledgeable about all of the different kinds of tea and gave us some great recommendations. I loved the chandeliers, flowers and books that decorated the inside; beautiful tea sets. It is such a fun place to bring your girlfriends to catch up or spill the tea with each other 🫖

    This was our first date, and I believed that when I made the reservation online earlier today, I had selected the "dating" occasion. As a result, we were greeted with some lovely amenities, such as a heart-shaped sign at our table. Our server, Parker, was very kind and accommodating. The best part of the evening was having the entire restaurant to ourselves, which made for a very pleasant experience. I've been here before with my family, but it felt completely different when bringing my date.
