- The salty oat cookies are deliciously filling. Also, the grilled salmon entree is great, but it comes in a curry sauce, so prepare yourself!
- Lena JanimovaAugust 22, 2014Soulful and quite place. One of my favorite spots in DC. Seriously great tea! Lavender-lemon-mint hot tea is divine. Food is good as well. Totally worth it stop here for a lunch or nice cup of tea
- GelindaJanuary 28, 2014Enjoyed the chai tea with a salty oatmeal raisin cookie. Both were delicious. The atmosphere is nice. I would like to revisit for the food.
- The bubble tea is fantastic, and the bento boxes are great deals. Nice relaxed atmosphere with more than ample seating between upstairs and downstairs.
- Andrew CNovember 21, 2018Cafe is super cute... pricey but great asian themed food and quick service!!! Amazing tea choices, esp with the store next door
- Great place if it's not too busy--the veggie bento box is excellent, particularly when coupled with Japanese sweet green tea (which you can buy the mix for in the shop next door). Highly recommended.
- Morgan ThomasMay 20, 2011Really like the Thai Chicken Curry, I want to try the Shrimp curry too. The Japanese sweet tea & bento boxes are good. Loved the chai shake. Love the koi pond downstairs.
- Their chai is great--it's not overly sweet, and it has a bit of a spicy bite to it. I've never been disappointed by anything on the menu, either.
- Briana BaileyFebruary 26, 2017Very casual eatery. Vegetable udon was very large and good for a cold day. Not the best I've had, but it was still pretty good and they didn't skimp on the vegetables.
- Sree BhandaramJune 22, 2013If you haven't already, try their Imli Cooler. It's a refreshing tamarind based drink with a hint of cardamom. Deliciously refreshing!
- Abi OlveraJune 23, 2012The Moroccan mint tea is very good but not as sweet as a real Moroccan tea! It's lightly sweetened like it says. The Chai shake is my favorite.
- Katarina KatsmaApril 11, 2015Fantastic tea! Looovveee their genmaicha, and their ginger baked good are sweet with a bit of a kick!
- Gilles BoeykensDecember 13, 2014Great food at an affordable price! I'll come back in a second. Try this place and you won't regret it.
- Jeff HendricksonMarch 1, 2010If you're a loose tea person, this is a great spot. And if you like oolong, you have to try the Baozhong - amazing. They have tea sets, strainers, and other neat tea related things as well. Read more
- Kelly BarrettJanuary 24, 2011Chocolate salty oat cookie is fabulous. perfect place to hang for some peace and quiet on weekend. Haven't tried the sushi or noodle bowls but it all looks really yummy.
- Jecee MedeirosNovember 17, 2013Teaism is tops when in the district. Try the miso sweet potatoes with bento box for lunch.
- Melissa LongAugust 14, 2013Was excited about the French toast until I opened the to go container. Edges were burned and was soggy from all the apples and juice underneath. Apples are great touch but package them separately.
- Really decent breakfast for only $10. The cilantro eggs are always tasty and the naan warm. Big mug of tea and you are fueled for your morning.
- I've gotten the waffle and chai so much that when I drink chai at home I crave a waffle
- Kirsten SNovember 8, 2012Great lunch spot with one of the best chai teas in DC. Get the bento box and eat downstairs; it's much quieter.
- Close GitmoJanuary 11, 2012Jan 11: the National Day of Action Against Guantanamo & the NDAA! Join us at 1130 in Lafayette Square across from the White House. The program and march will run from Noon-2:30pm EST
- Jon-Carlo CanezoMay 19, 2011Any of their cocktails are delicious and can get you sufficiently tipsy. Recommend the Beijin Sling. But they're all good.
- Wahid MohiuddinMay 6, 2013The only DC location serving Imli Cooler. A perfect cooler for ur hot summer DC walks.
- Nicole SheaMarch 31, 2014I would climb mountains to get to the salty oat cookies. They are perfection.
- The udon noodle soup is enough for delicious leftovers!
- The spinach curry is fantastic. Plus, don't forget to get an order of the the ginger scones!
- Sunday brunch here is a ritual. The scrambled eggs & salmon is the usual for me. For cold beverages try any of the Lassi drinks or the Japanese sweet green tea.
- You cannot leave here without a salty oat cookie. All of the variations are great!
- April WaldenOctober 12, 2010Veggie bento box was good (especially the rice), but sauteed (I guess) veggies were soggy & cold (very unpleasant). Substituted tofu 4 xtra edamame. Iced Morroccan mint tea was good w/ free refills.
- The cilantro eggs and tea cured salmon for breakfast/brunch are amazing.
- Michelle OlenoskiDecember 17, 2013Must have the salted oat cookies. Don't order the chicken noodle soup!
- JackieMay 20, 2011Try the Tofu Noodle Salad - Good kick to it from chilies. Cold salad, which means tofu is cold, but delicious.
- Brian HolleyAugust 7, 2011Scones and two giant mugs of tea for $10. Not bad. Charging me 50 cents for two tiny packets of jam because they only gave us one for the whole plate of scones...priceless!
