Samovar Tea Lounge

Samovar Tea Lounge --Specializing in the ritual of preparing teas--

This tea lounge has such an amazing atmosphere and a great concept--Advertising the importance in the ritual of preparing tea. The concept of this tea lounge is to dig deep inside yourself and to find the zen in not only yourself but also the world around you. 


Located on the top of Yerba Buena in downtown San Francisco--this place is surprisingly relaxing in such a busy place--


The atmosphere at Samovar Tea Lounge is very relaxing. They strive to create a calm and relaxing atmosphere for guest to feel at ease once they enter the establishment. As you walk in, the decor and the tables are set up to feel very comfortable with large windows from the floor to the ceiling. The staff and servers are very friendly greeting you right as you walk in and are very patient with you as you look at a large list full of different types of teas that they offer. It seemed a little intimidating for first timers because the teas that they offer are from all over the world. I couldn't identify half of the teas that were offered, but the servers were amazing and very patient with us.


The style of the food here at Samovar Tea Lounge is very simple but offering a lot to choose from. http://samovarlife.com/lounges/food-tea-menu/ Their desserts pair perfectly with certain teas that they offer. My favorite dessert was the scones that had jam and a custard to spread with and I paired it with an earl red tea that made the flavors pop. I had never had an earl red tea before so it was very interesting to find how wonderful it was.

The service here was absolutely amazing and was a memorable experience. The Samovar Life is what they try to promote focusing on energy, love, life and integrity. This type of restaurant showed a lot of passion that they have in the importance of meditating to promote the beauty within and to embrace life. I would highly recommend this restaurant to those that are interested in having a relaxing and calming life experience.
