Best Restaurants for Afternoon Tea in Boyle Heights

Excellent service and food! Beautiful walk through the gardens to the tea room. Beautiful ambiance!

Very busy, but we were well-tended bu Jenny. The food and tea were delicious.

Have been to this tea numerous times and generally always enjoy it and feel satisfied. The tea sandwiches are always good. The tea selection was excellent, multiple delicious sounding black tea options. Don’t need fruity or green teas for high tea imo. The room is gorgeous, a fountain in the center. They used to have some couch seating but I don’t see it any more, just tables and chairs. The service was on point, we were the first ones there but our server brought things out very quickly which was nice. Everyone was friendly. Be warned parking/valet at the hotel is $30+ but you can prepay cash $25 and save a little.

Four of us had the Vegan Afternoon Tea. It was wonderful and the best we have ever had. We have had Afternoon Teas in Los Angeles, NYC, Paris, London, San Francisco and Toronto. This was by far the best and it was without compromise. There were no eliminating ingredients to make it vegan and no funny textures in the sweets. What a find!

Ambiance was the best part of this Chado location in Little Tokyo. Service was a bit slow as there was only one host and one server on a weekend. Tables were spaced out enough to have quiet conversation with your guest/party. Sit outside for the best atmosphere. What would have elevated the experience: a thoughtful, brief rundown of each type of tea and history of Chado.
