Great atmosphereby Yahoo | 2008-07-10 04:59:18 |

Great atmosphere for chatting with friends while enjoying some non-fattening tea. They do have sweet chai shake (tea shake) though. It was quite hot inside during summer so I would not suggest ordering a hot drink/tea. Heard that the other branch at Chinatown has better airconditioning.

I am going back! It's a treasure.by Yahoo | 2005-03-16 19:08:58 |

The tea was first rate, the food fresh, wonderful little gifts available. The rooms were kind of old fashioned and wonderful for lingering. I came during a busy period but they seemed a little disorganized and I felt I had to wait an inordinately long time. It was worth the wait!
