Recently, I went here with a friend to grab some tea at the bar. We figured that was what the bar was for. After walking in to a hostess who did not greet us, we figured we would sit at the bar. After about 10 minutes, someone finally acknowledged our presence, despite 3 or for servers talking to each other... More

We are a family who were on holiday in Boulder during Spring break. So glad we found this place to eat. Lovely Restaurant with high painted ceilings, lovely decor. Excellent staff and I can't rate the food, teas and other drinks and dessert highly enough. We went in for a drink originally and while waiting decided to get lunch too... More

Excellent food, great service, and a really cool place for dining. Prices similar to those on Pearl Street.

The teahouse itself is a treasure which should be seen to appreciate. We went for a party yesterday, and enjoyed some good but rather heavy pastries at high tea. The tea was delicious, served in individual pots. The service, on the other hand, was annoying and inattentive. The waitperson gave a spiel, but didn't seem to be talking directly to... More

The Tea House is exquisite and worth the visit. We had lunch here and it was challenging. We each ordered the Bahn Mi, against our usual rule, when visiting a new restaurant, and we paid for it. Having had Bahn Mi at many restaurants, this version was a surprise. The pork was roasted and not seasoned, so it was very... More

The Teahouse must be seen to be believed. The entire place is covered with incredibly intricate carvings and paintings in beautifully harmonious colors. Truly amazing detail. We snacked on a few appetizers, & had tea. I was happy with the service, the quality, & the price. Not cheap, but not over-the-top for the experience. I recommend highly. You can also... More

This was my first time checking out Dushanbe's afternoon tea ($19.95 per adult, $10.95/children under 9). I've had afternoon tea at the Huckleberry in Louisville, so my review will compare the two restaurants. I went on a busy Saturday around the holidays and had a lovely evening at Dushabe. Our table was a bit small for 6, but the atmosphere... More

This tea house is gorgeous! We always come here when family and friends from out of town come to visit so they can experience the neat decor. We like to sit at the tables that have a raised platform so you can sit cross-legged. If you have trouble with your knees you might not want to sit at those tables,... More

I had the Pho but when I got it I wouldn't call it that. The presentation was very fancy pants, but the spices were off, the meat was way over cooked and there was really only a few bites of food. My friend had to send her meal back twice after asking if they could make her salad vegan by... More

It is not easy to determine if you can enjoy breakfast at the teahouse by looking at their website. Rest assured that you can and it is delicious. Obviously the decor is beautiful and the setting relaxing. In addition to great tea and service the breakfast was delicious.
