What happened to the Velvet Turtle restaurant?
The Downtown location of the Velvet Turtle closed up in the early 1990s, but the building it once occupied wasn't torn down until March 2014. What was once a popular dining destination at the corner of Ord and Hill is now a vacant lot, wrapped in dark green shadecloth and overgrown with weeds.
Is Velvet Turtle still open?
sold the chain to a private investor group. The semi-formal restaurant chain closed down in the early 1990s when the popularity of casual dining was on the rise.
