The owner was delightful and welcomed me to try a tea blend he’s been working on free of charge. Very welcoming and friendly owner and staff.

Cute little tea house in downtown Whittier with friendly owner and staff and an extensive list of unique loose leaf tea offerings that are quite delicious. I've been several times and plan to visit anytime we visit the area.

A true gem in the community! The owner and staff are incredibly warm, welcoming, and genuinely passionate about tea and healthy living. As someone who used to be a daily coffee drinker, I’ve been inspired to make the switch to tea—and I’m already feeling the benefits. This place doesn’t just serve amazing tea, it motivates you to embrace a healthier lifestyle too!

Today I decided to take a trip to come see Zen's tea house. I got off work and wanted to surprise my coworkers with some matcha. I always pass by this tea house but never stop by. Today I just felt the urge to just step in. I am very glad I did because I was able to see an old high school friend and also enjoy a conversation about our lives outside of high school. Our journey with God and our family while sampling matcha was a great experience. Thank you for having a welcoming environment and for praying with for my husband who is ill. Until next time! Thank you. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking to get away and have a good matcha with your friends, and family. The seating area really makes it feel like you are at home. Thank you again fernando.

Fernando and the whole Zen Tea House team are so sweet and friendly. They truly are interest and supportive of what you’re doing. Along with being staples in the community for working with non-profits and ministry. So thankful for their care and AMAZING TEA. The golden milk and chocolate chai is BOMBBBB

I stopped in while Uptown looking for tea as a coffee alternative but left a bit disappointed. The cup looked nice, but the flavor leaned more toward sweet milk than spice. I was hoping for a strong, gingery turmeric kick, but it came across mild and slightly chalky, with some grit at the bottom. It was also served closer to warm than hot, so it cooled quickly and needed frequent stirring to keep the spices blended.
Service felt slower than expected given there was no line. I waited without much communication, and another couple who arrived after me got their order first. Staff weren’t unfriendly, but they seemed a little disengaged and the counter felt somewhat unorganized.
I like the emphasis on wellness, and the blends sounded great on the menu, but in the cup they didn’t fully deliver. Between the longer wait and the underwhelming drink, I’ll probably try other tea spots before returning.

Great tea! Great service, extramly knowledgeable about teas. Only place i shop for tea. Holds awesome events such as herbalism classes, and art and sips. Chill, Zen vibe, pun intended.
The tea is amazing here. My favorite is the golden milk and the Hawaiian fruit. Definitely recommend.

I recently tried the gout tea at Zen’s Tea House, and I’m beyond impressed! After struggling with symptoms, I was eager to find a natural remedy, and this tea has made a noticeable difference.
The blend is soothing and flavorful, making it a pleasure to drink. After just a few days of incorporating it into my routine, I experienced significant relief from discomfort. It’s comforting to know I’m sipping on something that supports my health naturally.
If you're looking for an effective and tasty way to manage gout symptoms, I highly recommend the gout tea at Zen’s Tea House. It’s truly been a game-changer for me!
