   Such an adorable venue. They have many teas to choose from- so many flavors. You get to select your own sandwiches, scones, pastries and croissants. It is a bit small and can get loud with the acoustics but we didn’t mind at all. Would go back in a heartbeat.

   We got more food than I expected! We left the experience with pastries and tea to go it was so much food! Plus a cute atmosphere perfect for a girls night!

   Lady Camellia offers a cozy experience. The staff provides attentive and friendly service throughout the visit. However, the food was average; some dishes lacked flavor. Overall, it’s a nice spot, especially if you prioritize good service, but there’s room for improvement in the culinary experience.

   We had my daughter‘s birthday party here. It was a large party (10). Everyone had a great time and enjoyed their food. It is a small place, and the staff work hard to accommodate as many people as they can. Their phone doesn’t work the best, so stop by and talk to them in person if you need to.

   Cute place for tea but would not recommend for a meal. The entree that comes with the tea was lackluster and came out after the pastries (which seems odd to eat a savory entree after cakes and scones). I think this would be much more enjoyable just with the tea sandwiches mid day. We also got stuck at a table that was literally in the middle of the restaurant where everyone walked by and we were right next to the tables beside and behind us. The other tables seemed much more private and comfortable.

   Loved tea at Lady Camellia! Food was fresh and tasty and was more than anyone could eat so we all got to take home pretty boxes with leftover treats. Great tea selection, lovely china, pretty view, great service, and absolutely amazing scones. Arrive early to try to find on-street parking, but if non is available there is a $15 lot between the tearoom and the river. A bit pricey for parking but worth the convenience.

    They were “out” of several items but never bothered to tell us beforehand we ordered. Also, had to flag down someone to place our order. Food is good but tea selection could use some refresh or innovation
