Asesh was excellent and made sure that everyone in the Bridal Shower tea party was taken care of. He was very attentive and had to juggle a very large reservation. The tea was very communicative and helpful to work with our food allergies & dietary restrictions the weeks leading up to our reservation. Bright, modern setting and probably the most delicious afternoon tea I have had in the SF Bay Area. Thank you for hosting our party.
