Although I live right across the street from the Tao of Tea, I hadn't been in there until today. I wish I hadn't gone today either. Although the tea was good, the service was slow and the servers unhelpful. Although there was only a small table open, and we communicated with the server that we were hoping to move to a larger table, when we finally did so we were told off. It seemed to completely throw off the ability of their one server to remember where we were seated. On top of that, the server gave us no information about what food was available, so we were four times told that what we wanted, they were out of (this included desserts, which we waited for 10 minutes to order and then were told that none of what we wanted, they had). If the servers had been happy, conversational or communicative at all my experience would have increased exponentially, but unfortunately they seem to only employ mutes. I will never go back again.

This tea shop is centrally located on Belmont, across the street from the Avalon. The teas are aromatic and flavorful, and the staff is really knowledgeable. For instance, my dad told me he wanted some tea with a specific taste. I was able to describe the taste to the employees, and they knew exactly what i was talking about. They also serve food- delicious vegan appetizers in a space that's inviting as well as calming.

It's a quaint little place, but the service is slow. They're probably understaffed, but we were ignored for about 25 minutes after sitting down at a table while others were not. I had to go get menus myself. The tea is good, and the atmosphere is nice, but it was frustrating being constantly ignored throughout the visit.
