Notice the prices taken from a display case advertising the restaurant posted below. Somebody else posted a menu at the same prices. When I was there no prices were posted and I was charged a dollar more per cup. If the prices have gone up they need to change their menu (menu costs— sea Milton Friedman, Ha,Ha,Ha). When I inquired about prices are like around $5 In fairness. I hadn't seen any other prices beforehand, but still it would be nice if there would be consistency a problem in this day and age with business). The ambiance was nice even if the final charge was $4.44 (4 isan unlucky number in China (444 is like the triple death number!). Nice ambience and reasonably polite, though the paper cops were kind of not a nice touch and a little odd. (I'd rather expect porcelain and a place trying to be authentic like this.) Not as good as AT house and Guangzhou (and no dim sum— just moon cakes which are pretty much relegated to Autumn festival in China). Honestly the aged white tea was good but it wasn't as good as the black tea that I got at QT the other day. Also it was a little watery for me. I like it strong. I didn't super give him a bad rating cuz it was not an unpleasant experience. Response to owner: things need to be explicit: if the service is to go only this needs to be made clear in advance. I was understood to be paying for a tea house experience. If only to go cups are available, this needs to be made clear before the tea is ordered and served the tea payment is expected. Hopefully, at this point, an accurate printed menu is posted in house as welll. Furthermore, if white tea is going to taste like watered-down tea, mighr mention this in advance in explaining the different teas. Lastly, It might be nice to mention somewhere that in China mooncakes are traditionally seasonal and for mid-Autumn festival only And that otherwise traditional Cantonese tea houses generally serve dim sum (rather than moon cakes). E.G. let us know that your dishwasher is broken and that the tee will therefore be served in paper cups before it is ordered.

The white chai tea was excellent, so was the homemade pineapple mooncake. All orders are to go now and they stopped serving food, but are unable to remove old pics.

A VERY unexpected pleasure. Thank you so much for the Tea and Cakes. You were so kind and helpful and the overall Atmosphere/Ambiance was calm and serene..despite your location in a busy area. Thank you for the moment of peace and sanctuary. I hope to visit again, soon.

I love this spot. The tea is always delicious and the moon cakes are heavenly. I’m passing grouch KC today after being a prior resident. I will be stopping here for for refreshments for the remainder of my trip. It’s such a perfect spot.

Shang's Tea House is a beautiful shop filled with incredible Jade pieces, stunning teaware, and delicious tea. I had the privilage of discovering this place during Mid Autumn Festival and was able to celebrate with delicious moon cakes as well — both the lotus and pineapple flavors were tasty! I learned they are made in house with a family recipe! The honeysuckle white tea is my new favorite tea to drink daily and my fish cup brings me joy everyday during my tea sessions. The service here was amazing and I am so happy to have found Gongfu style tea in person that I can also order online since I live 6 hours away. I cannot wait to come back to Kansas City and visit again. 谢谢 ！

Amazing cup of tea, what a great group of people.
The mooncake is possibly one of my new favorite pastries of all time. It's so good.
Great tea great prices and top notch atmosphere.
I did the tea tasting experience with a friend for their birthday. It was the coolest and such a unique experience. Highly recommend.
Tried each of the mooncake flavors they were offering and they were delicious! So glad to have found a place selling quality mooncakes in KC
