    Superb meal. Our waiter, David, was delightful - attentive, friendly and professional. The food was outstanding. The meal was ideally paced. Attention to detail is amazing - my husband is gluten free and every course was served with sensitivity to that. We will look forward to returning!

    Great way to catchup with friends and family in a relaxed non packed rushed type of atmosphere. Their menu changes with the seasons so it's always different each time. Huge selection of teas and other drinks. Very accommodating with allergies too. Will definitely plan to return again soon. Not really a place to bring kids more geared towards adults and couples

    Waited for 15 minutes for the waitress. They’re understaffed. I wasn’t expecting this service on a Four Seasons. The food was good but not memorable.

    Due to traffic we were pretty late for our reservation unfortunately, but the staff was so kind and accommodating to us. The tea and service were fantastic. It was a really fun group activity.
