We celebrated a birthday afternoon tea here and loved every minute so much we stayed much longer than expected! Each bite on the tea tower was delicious and we couldn’t decide which of the savory Thai morsels we liked best but really loved the curry puff, pork sticky rice, massaman bun and the sweet peanut dumplings. And the mango sticky rice rolled into a flower. And the mini cupcakes with buttercream frosting. See— they were all good!The peach and passion fruit tea was also aromatic and delicious. That was our favorite of the two we tried. And we also ordered a side of the tofu popcorn which were mouthwatering. They did ask about food allergies first for the tea tower.Great day all around. Make sure to call ahead for a reservation for tea and come with a bit of time on your hands if it gets busy. Will definitely go back.

Food is amazing here. I love their afternoon tea set which costs 39.99 per set, enough to share between 2 people. Decoration is beautiful - you will feel like you're in a garden. Service is also great. Highly recommended to try!

Came here on a Sunday afternoon with 2 kids and a friend. We did not have reservations and were seated immediately. They seemed pretty unorganized even though they were not full. We came for the experience that we did not get we were not greeted at the table to select teas given a breakdown of what the tray tower came with nothing. My girls wanted the experience and I was a little disappointed that I had to keep getting up to ask questions. I will come back again to try to get the experience hopefully it would not be the same. The food was cool.

Slowwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. Terrible service. The worst services we've experienced in a long time. Not worth it.

Came here as a party of 3 to try the high tea. We were slightly confused with the set up. Essentially its $40 for a pot of tea and the tower of treats. Typically suited for 2 people. We initially thought each person was charged like a normal high tea place but thats not the case here. The restaurant is small and very nicely decorated. The food display was appetizing and most of the stuff that was included in the tea set was delicious. The restaurant has an awesome thai menu with tons of selection all very reasonably priced. We were very disappointed in the tea. Inside the tea pot is one single tea bag and if u wanted refill they just add hot water but the tea bag already has no more flavor. Our server was super nice but the poor guy was running around the whole restaurant with no additional help. Every table was full. Not only did he forget to put in an order but we ended up waiting a long time for a dish that he kept saying was coming that we never came. We ended up canceling and asking for the check. We definitely enjoyed the food and would love to come back to try the rest of the menu. Hopefully next time it will be better

I’m a sucker for afternoon high tea service and wish that there were more places that offer it here in NYC. The ones I know about in Manhattan are a bit on the higher end in terms of prices, so it was great to hear about Madame Tea Sweet House. They recently opened in Woodside, Queens and are offering their version of afternoon tea service.The tea service is called East Meets West ($39.99) and is Thai focused. You have your choice of tea and includes both savory and sweet items like chicken and meat dumplings, cupcakes, coconut mango jelly, steamed banana cake, sticky rice balls (Bua Loi), grated coconut, and layered pandan dessert (Khanom Chan), just to name a few. The items are petite sized and perfect for those who want to try a variety of Thai desserts both traditional and new.The presentation was on point and was so visually stunning. I loved the fact that a lot of the items in the tea service were new to me. My favorite items were the three savory sweet bird dumplings (Chor Muang) filled with ground meat, and radishes. They were shaped like tiny birds, had a silky, chewy dough filled with ground chicken & pork. It was so very tasty. Funnily enough, the tea was actually the least exciting component of the whole thing. We chose to get Jasmine green and it was surprisingly just a tea bag and not house blend loose leaf tea that is usually served with high tea.Along with the tea service, we also ordered Larb Pork Nachos ($16.95). Larb is usually served with sticky rice or lettuce wrap so I really loved their version with nachos. The larb was tangy, full of flavor with lots of fresh herbs, and had a slight spicy kick. It was so perfect with the nachos which added a crunchy element to each bite. I could have eaten this whole dish by myself.We very much enjoyed our visit. The space, while small with about 4-5 small tables, was decorated so cute. The staff and owner came by several times to check on us. They even put the movie Breakfast at Tiffany’s on the screen for us to watch while we waited for our food. It was just a very lovely time, and we will be coming back.
