   We had a so so experience at this event, our service was good, but the food was okay, there were supposed to be cucumber sandwiches but instead they were subed for chicken salad sandwiches which were super salty. The cheese only ones were salty also. The only ones that were were decent were the salmon ones. The other items were okay, there were variety of macaronos and dessert items. It was also super loud in the restaurant. Also I was not aware of auto gratuity of 20%. I had added a tip already and then realized there was already gratuity added. This place is cute but our visit was a bit off. Not sure we will be back for tea service again.

   I met up with friends for a long lunch. The staff was friendly and accommodating. There was no pressure to turn the table in their beautiful indoor dining room. I loved my salmon Caesar. I also recommend their cozy Parlor Bar!

   Came here for afternoon tea with my mother in law, sister in law and my mom. It was a great experience. You get 1 tower between 2 people and it comes with petite fours, fresh fruit, scones and biscuits and finger sandwiches. You each get 2 pots of teas as well. It was so much food we took half of it home. Every single thing was amazing and fresh. Loved the chocolate chip scones and the pimento and cheese sandwiches the best!

   The only that I’d change is there were a lot of surprise fees on the bill, like the preparation fee. I thought the listed high tea price was low compared to other establishments, but the hidden fees made it equal to other places.

   Worst experience I ever had in Austin tx. The food was awful, everything over salted, management treated family very poorly. Never coming back.

   We had afternoon tea here. No scones, just biscuits :/. The desserts were stale and they only gave us macarons. They only gave us tea bags, no loose leaf tea. The portions were generous though. I think this has a lot of room for improvement and it could be a great place for afternoon tea if they made some changes.

   The entire experience was not worth the time or money spent. There was one waiter that was taking care the entire restaurant and was the most inhospitable person. All the food took entirely too long to come and it was not good. The salad was wilted and favor less. When the notified the waiter that the food was not good he responded with “sorry that’s how it comes.” I was entertaining out of town guest and was looking a good simple brunch. This was not the place.

   none of us liked our dinner. Pumpkin ravioli had too much cinnamon & two of us ordered the braised ribs were so salty, pretty inedible. My friend didn’t eat it at all, had I not been famished from my travels & empty stomach, I would gave stopped after one bite.
