They were closed! I made a reservation to bring two business clients there because I used to love it several years ago. It was frustrating, inconvenient & embarrassing when we walked up to find it closed. It was 2:30 on a Wednesday & the website states they’re open. I made the reservation a week in advance so there was plenty of time for someone to contact me to let me know they would be closed. The last time I went, about 3 years ago, the service wasn’t great but I love the atmosphere & food so decided to try it again but I guess that was the last time.

Our experience was excellent. Made reservations for 4 people and needed a table for 5. I tried contacting the place via open table and then calling and had no answer so we took a chance coming in with 5 people and they were able to accommodate us. We got 2 large pots of tea for 5 people. One pot is good enough if you only want one cup each. The food was good. Everyone enjoyed their meals. Their scones are amazing! Fresh out the oven, they were warm! The bill had a 20% service charge for 5 people. It is a little expensive but what isn’t these days? The decor was so pretty. It’s a small place so I do recommend making a reservation. Overall, it was a pleasant experience. They accommodated my party needs and food/tea was delicious. I will definitely be back.

We ate at this restaurant about a month ago and when we received our bill at the end of a delicious meal with wonderful service we were charged different prices than were posted in the menu. When we asked the server about it, she said that they had changed the prices they’re charging and there was nothing she could do about it. We insisted that they could not charge us prices different from what was in the menu. After much discussion she finally relented and gave us a small discount off the price, as a courtesy, she said. Before we went back this week, I called and found out that the menu had been revised and was told it had the correct prices on it. Once again when we got the check, the prices we were charged were different from what was in the menu. When we spoke with the server, she said that the only thing she could figure out was that they were charging us 4% more because of the use of a credit card. At this point, they had no idea whether we were using cash or a credit card so that reasoning doesn’t even make sense. You can’t charge us a different price for items on the menu, we said. You can add on a fee for using a credit card, but you can’t charge us a different price for the food than is on the menu. After much conversation and our insistance, the server finally relented and gave us a 10% discount.
