    I would recommend the afternoon tea to anyone! I had the Christmas themed tea and it was so adorable and cute! The food was a good mixture of sweet and savory. I loved the tea. The staff is also so lovely and kind as well as accommodating and that really makes the whole experience worthwhile. It's a small place and to get to the restroom you need a staff member to walk you through the kitchen to the back. While I don't mind that at all I felt like I was disrupting the baking process while walking through and kind of felt bad having to use it. Restroom is clean! Pastries are delicious! Price for the tea was 52$/person which is low to mid level pricing but I thought it was well worth it. Decor was on the simple and sweet side. If there was more decor/design to the space it would have been even more perfect but I was totally happy with everything I got! Really cute idea for a simple meeting with friends! Love love love so do it!

    I hosted my company Xmas dinner here last night for my employees. Glad they were able to accommodate all 12 of us. We did the Tasting Menu Iv. It was enough food/portions to go around for all of us the staff was amazing & they catered to us. More importantly the food was on point. I’ve been here multiple times but this time my employees got to experience & enjoy this top notch dinner.

    Wayan is a Nolita/SoHo located Indonesian and French fusion restaurant. This cuisine and style was novel yet comforting. Went with a group of 6 and we tried a good portion of the menu. Lovely decor and moderate noise and energy. We didn’t see the back area but I’m sure with the res availability, it’s sizable. I appreciate how the reservations are attainable yet it is still popular. 1. Satays - lamb, pork, scallops - all were flavorful — 8.2/10 2. Golden Sweet potatoes — godly 9.6/10 3. Citrus salad - refreshing, though the base was chunks of cabbage which isn’t my favorite — 7.6 4. Baby squid - very fried, but quality squid and a delicious & balanced mix of toppings — 8.6 5. Hamachi tartare - fresh seafood, good mix of sweet, bitter, & savory, with a little bit of crunch — 8.4 6. Sea bass - fresh, cooked perfectly, nice light sauce — 8.6 7. Lobster noodles — the revered lobster noodles were excellent, velvety noodles with a sticky coating. Plentiful lobster, portion size was fine given the small bowl. I have had better sauces which is the only detractor — 9.4 8. Crescent duck - really enjoyed this, slept on by my dinnermates — 8.6 9. Corn fritters - yum — 8.8 White wine was a strong choice, moderate sweetness. I have sesame, tree nut, and peanut allergies, and the staff/kitchen were great with accommodating and informing us on what items were safe. Otherwise, the service was good not great. I liked the speed and order of serving the satays, small plates, and then large plates. They did get rid of glasses while someone was going to pour more wine and did not ask about drinks often. I will be returning!
