The tea, sorbet, sandwiches, desserts... all very tasty morsels. The sole reason I will NEVER RETURN is the poor customer service we were given. As soon as I walked in the door, with the door not yet closed behind me, I was stopped in mid-step by the general manager and one of the waitresses who began to interrogate me about the details and the correctness of my reservation, with my party seated at a table just a few feet away. The general manager wanted to argue with me and insisted everyone in my party order only the tea ceremony and I pay more than what was ordered due to a simple misunderstanding in the reservation. She did this in front of all her other customers and in front of my guest of honor seated right next to me. This was VERY EMBARRASSING. To make the matter worse, the general manager proceeded to make disgusting gestures and facial expressions and harsh eye contact for the entire duration of our dinner! \r

I will gladly opt to have my next tea at Tea Rose Garden on 28 S.Raymond just a couple blocks away!
