I came here one evening as a spot to hang out with friends and it was chill. While Say Hi serves as a tea house during the day, at night, they become more of a bar. The inside is absolutely beautiful and while they have tables, they also have more traditional floor seating. We got a couple bites of food to eat, some of their tea, and some cocktails. Their food was very mediocre, at best. While the persimmon cake SEEMED to be made in house, it was very clear that everything off their food menu required minimal preparation (ie. for the dumplings, it was just har cow). I also thought their cocktails were okay, and out of the three we got, none stood out to me. I did enjoy their tea, however. But, it was also fairly expensive for what it was (~$50). Overall, I thought this spot was okay for the price and I'm not sure I would return. read more

Say Hi is a lovely space for both big and small groups! It's beautifully decorated inside and gives off a Chinese tea house feel. It's cozy yet spacious. We came with a fairly large group and ordered several teas and snacks to share amongst us. There were several options for the flavors of tea and each one had different benefits as well. I loved all of them, particularly the fruitier ones. As for snacks, we had this fried taro snack that had a crispy biscuit outer layer that was delicious. It was a bit of a sweet & savory mix, but not strong in either sweet or salty flavors. There was also this persimmon snack that was filled with nuts and other things. It was slightly sweet, very unique, and both paired well as a tea time snack. They're also open until 11:30pm! So if you want to skip the bar, I'd recommend checking out this tea spot for a nice hang out. read more

I honestly really enjoyed getting afternoon tea here after lunch. There were a bunch of items that were unavailable when we went but the server made his recommendations. Both desserts were really good! read more

What a beautiful tea house! Loved the holiday music in the establishment. We ended up having lattes instead of tea along with French Fries, Chicken Wings and a chocolate roll cake. All were delish! Never realized this place was here and so close to me! Only realized this after I saw reviews on Yelp! Service was friendly and they have call buttons at each table. read more

Cute little tea house that serves tea and food. I can only speak to the tea and the venue as our group of friends hosted a baby shower here. The venue itself is really cutely decorated. The front of the house has a little enclosed space that can fit medium sized groups. There was plenty of light shining through. The bathrooms are clean and spacious. Didn't get to go to the back, but apparently there's more room and seating. The tea they served was alright, didn't taste any better than a regular black tea. read more

We ordered the Rock Tea and it was one of the nicest experiences I've ever had with Tea. The owner said that tea is strong, yet it smelled and tasted really refreshing and soft. Food exceeded my expectations. My favorite is the rice noodle, which wasn't on menu yet. Make sure you ask them what they can make in house because they seem to try out different things often. The persimmon cake was cold and complemented very well with the crispy fried taro cake. I wouldn't recommend the sweet potato because it was a little too sweet for me, but nothing wrong with it either. Cold beef has a very nice flavor and is paired well with beer, but it's a bit too hard for me to chew. read more

This tea shop just opened 6 months ago, still pretty new and low key in the neighborhood. However I'm so happy to find this Chinese fine tea place. The store is beautifully decorated and very cozy. That already gave me very good first impression. It is such a relaxation to enjoy the tea and snacks in an artistic presentation. We chose combo for 4 ppl for $80 which included tea, snacks, and fruit. The tea was in a boiling pot, and we spooned out tea into a small cup. It is surely interesting to taste the tea in a different way from hot steeping. I loved my white tea with sweet osmanthus. The fragrance is not too strong but refreshing. They offered a great varieties of snacks too. My favorite is the black sesame pudding. Super smooth, perfectly sweet with a layer of cream. After tea tasting, we ordered some savory appetizers from the kitchen. I was really impressed by the Yuzu chicken wing, so crispy and juicy. Yuzu sauce just made the chicken less oily. Tofu and ribs were delish and full of flavors too. Overall I strongly recommend this unique and elegant tea shop. The restaurant also has private section for big groups. I will definitely go back there and try the essential oil making session for holiday seasons. read more

Cute tea house. Their sweet potato with ice cream was really good and they have several areas for you to sit and chill. When we went they didn't have all their teas in stock but what we got was still good! read more

Came here for the first time with my friends. They open later in the afternoon however, we arrived an hour earlier and they allowed us in bc of a private event also happening. The staff was patient however, we did have to wait a while for the baskets of food to arrive bc there was only one employee running back and forth. Super unique concept, definitely check it out if you want to experience a true Chinese tea time experience. You get to choose your tea, and the bundle set comes with dried goodies, sweets, and fresh fruit. I had a fun time and the aesthetic was stunning! read more

My friend wanted to come to Say Hi to have an authentic Chinese tea experience. We were a little confused as to how to order and what to do when we walked in so we asked the server for a suggestion. We were suggested Rock Tea or the White Tea selection for the winter time. We chose the 2019 White Peony Tea ($30). The staff makes the tea in front of you. He put the tea leaves into a cup and seeps it into a small tea pot, to then be served into small cups again. For our tea, I think we were able to seep the tea for ~5 rounds because the tea started to lose color, hence finishing the session. It was interesting and you don't feel rushed so can spend lots of time there. We were seated in the patio area where you get an outside view. It was very relaxing, cozy, and felt like we were camping in this aesthetic place. The main con is that the bathrooms are not well kept, so they were pretty dirty when we were there. read more

This place is so cute and so cozy and perfect for a long date night or catching up with friends. The only downside I see is they charge per person so definitely not a place you want to go to if you just want to come chill with your friends and not have the tea The tea itself is definitely high quality and love that they let you flavor your tea yourself. The snacks they provided were also fresh and complimented the tea well. You don't get to choose the snacks but I think they planned it well enough. Nothing mind blowing but good! The service was ok. They pretty much left you alone and which was ok and they just come when you press the call button. All in all, I think it was a great experience. Very Instagrammable and you don't feel rushed so can spend lots of time there. read more

Love this tea shop! It's totally unique from all the cafes and bubble tea places. My husband and I came on a hot summer day and I regretfully insisted we sit in the windowed room for the vibes while we drink our hot tea but I still had a blast. The servers were very nice, answered any questions we had and promptly came over when we rang the bell. We got the tea for two which allowed us to select a tea from a choice of 4 teas, and add a floral add on. They bring you a big cauldron of tea and a canteen of water to refill as we like. We happily drank tea and ate the little beautiful desserts that came out (dried persimmon rolled with cream cheese (?), taro cakes, some kind of neutral pudding, fruits, nuts, etc. It's a great place to just chill that's different from everything else being offered. Only drawbacks is that they open a bit late (2pm) so I could not sleep that night due to the caffeine and the low chairs are incredibly uncomfortable and my butt has not recovered even after a week. But I'm giving 5 stars and taking melatonin and a cushion next time. read more

High tea at its finest. The interior is decorated well and they have stations to make candles, write calligraphy. And take pics. They are also conveniently opened until late as they also run as a bar. Definitely check this place out read more

Super cute and great vibe. I love the traditional chinese tea setting and love the section that is built outdoors so there's plenty of light and feels like you are outside but you are still indoors. Pro: good tea, good dessert, good set, food is hit or miss but generally ok Con: Timed seating, low chairs without backs, servers are not great with English read more

Some people pay for bottle service, my wife pays for tea service. Come for the vibe and a relaxing place to hang out and spend time drinking tea and eating snacks/fruits. If you want the tea set that comes with 13 small dishes and seasonal fruits, it was $80 for 4 people. We came with our kids who didn't care for it but they charge per person so it wasn't a great deal but if we could order the set for 2 guests, it wouldn't be bad for $50. I'm not a huge tea fan but the white tea that we tried was a good quality and I enjoyed some of the small dishes. For a different dessert experience and something different to try, it was nice to try it out. read more

Love the low sugar mango yogurt and mango & strawberry yogurt. It's a good treat for dessert.

There is literally no one there to serve us. We waited 5+ mins at the door. I love how they put a bell at the door to know when a customer comes in yet no one is there. read more

My experience varies by the services that received at this tea house. The first time I visited I had a very experienced server who presented the tea ceremony well and is very polite and very knowledgeable. Share ideas, gives suggestions and make sure we got the right kind of tea. The second time we visited, it was a younger female girl who just brew the tea in the kitchen and brought them out and left tea on the table. Has no idea how to do the tea ceremony. She also just left hot water nearby and doesn't not care about customer experience. They played R&B singles as background music very loudly which is very odd since we are drinking traditional Chinese tea. read more

Absolutely cute and stunning! Was getting sick and tired of all those "dessert tea house" "high tea" type of places. Sometimes I just want quality tea and authenticity. This place speaks for itself! Menu can be a bit confusing if you're not Chinese but do not worry, the staffing there have great service! They will explain every thing to you throughly. Great place for tea, snacks and chatting. (Recommended with 4 guest because that's when things get cute and fancy!) I hope this place stays around for a long time! I want go come back already ! read more
