The Tea Pavilion offers a pretty setting and reasonable prices, though the food and service quality can be inconsistent. Reviewers have enjoyed the grilled salmon rice bowl, jasmine iced tea, and iced matcha green tea latte, but found the chicken teriyaki bowl to be dry and tough. The location next to the Japanese Friendship Garden is convenient, providing a nice ambiance, though the music selection and staff conversations can sometimes disrupt the peaceful atmosphere. While the menu has potential, some dishes have fallen short of expectations. Overall, the Tea Pavilion is a suitable option for a light meal or refreshing beverage while exploring Balboa Park, especially if you have a Balboa Explorer Pass for a 10% discount.
