The Tao of Tea - Leaf Room

Great small tea shop with tons is options for both herbal and “true” teas.

Amazing selection of tea at reasonable prices, and the staff is always very courteous and helpful.

The service I received here was not so good. I asked many questions about what I was purchasing, which was up to $60 worth of goods and I did not feel particularly welcome. Some shrugs and nonchalant "I don't know, maybes" really soured an experience my wife and I were excited for. The interior is nice and the food and tea in the tea room itself are good. I'll keep this at 4 stars since it might just be the actions of one person.

Great little tea room/ atmosphere for enjoying a cup or two with a light lunch

A tea drinkers paradise of sorts. You'll be amazed by the choices available here. The staff is patient enough to help you make a choice if you are overwhelmed by the choices.For someone who's always explored multiple options in tea from around the world I was amazed at some of the options here. Rarely have I found a single place with so many well stocked options of speciality teas.Decently priced and they'd gift wrap things for you on request! Hop into their tea room next door for some tasters and some lovely food too!

This place and the people running it are trash.

this place is all facade and no substance. the feeling we experienced in the tea house was "bacteria" and "suffocation". the owner is full of himself and seems to be all about image and not substance. we would not advise spending your money at this place.

This tea room is in the Lan Su Chinese Garden. You order at the counter and they will bring your order to your table. I sat outside by the koi pond, where I had a lovely shaded table and a great view of the dragonflies, water lilies, lotus, and koi. I had the pickled vegetables salad and licorice tea. The salad was so flavorful. I could have eaten quite a lot more, but the smalls plate was really just right. The licorice tea was not what I was expecting. It was delicate, sweet (naturally, I believe—it didn’t taste as if there was any sugar added), and aromatic. I loved it so much I went back in just to purchase a tin of the tea. A lovely place to rest on an afternoon.

Best ? shop I've ever been to. It had great decorations, furniture and ?. I also loved my server. If you want to go out for ? this is the place.

Wonderful staff and amazing teas from all around the world!

The restaurant section of this beloved Belmont establishment had been closed for three whole years during COVID, but recently they opened. All the old favorites are back on the menu again, and the service is more friendly and well-timed than before. If you're in town for a visit, and you love tea, visit this unique teahouse. The ambiance alone is worth the trip!

Thank you, Tao of Tea, for making Beautiful products. I was fortunate enough to have a friend gift me a white tea and oolong set, along with a beautiful steeping cup <3 Not only do I enjoy the beauty of the cup every time I use it, but your teas have become quick favorites. Black Dragon, for one, is my "perfect black tea." Either with breakfast or later in the day, they each help me relax and enjoy as tea should.

Great tea house with good food. Definitely recommend.
