Best Restaurants for Afternoon Tea in Redwood City

Awesome time. A great dining experience. Service was on point. Only confusing part of evening was our seating arrangement. We only had outside option. But inside was 50% empty. Makes no sense. We watched another couple leave when they couldn’t sit inside.

I thoroughly enjoyed the Tina Tartare stack. The addition of crunchy pear to the avocado was wonderfully creative. We’ve been coming for years and hope you never change the consommé popover with strawberry butter. Delicious as well as elegant.

I have been there before but my wife and I went there for lunh today. We ate inside as it was cool outside (I have had lunch outside with a friend before and it was very nice). The inside was a large room with tables placed far enough apart for privacy and conversation. We sat by the window and were immediately greeted, given water and a menu. We brought a bottle of wine - they do not serve alcohol but you can bring a bottle of wine to enjoy with your meal and we did. The corkage fee iss $20. We ordered to starters: the crab cakes and the mushroom empanadas to share. They were very good and were hot. My wife had the Loaded Tacos with shrimp - four tacos loaded with shrimp cooked just right, some avocado, and a spicy sauce. It was a large plate. She liked it very much. I had the Butternut Squash Ravioli. The pasta was cooked al dente, the sauce was very good and the crispy bacon and red onions were a great accompaniment. I could not discern the sage however. The service was great. We finished with a shared desert and a couple of Cappuccinos. And I cannot forget to mention that two gentlemen played electric guitars (a base and a 6-string). They played jazz at just the right volume. It was jazz - the first number was a great rendition of Summertime - no voice, just 2 guitars). It was great. We really enjoyed our lunch. Highly recommended. .

Tea in the afternoon was such a great experience! The tea, the scones, lunch and dessert…mwah! The clotted cream…OMG!
