"Really enjoyed this spot. They had a great tea set/ offerings. Pastries were good, service was great, tea was okay. I definitely recommend and will come again only reason I give it a 4 is because it was pretty average but definitely worth the price for what it was."

"The tea experience was great! The pastries all had a Thai influence and there was a variety of items to taste that ranged from sweet to savory. The decor in the place was simple and clean, but I noticed the slight smell of fish and other food items...this may be due to Madame Tea sharing the space with a restaurant and why Madame Tea is only offered during certain hours and days. All in all the tea experience was great. The only suggestion I have is to maybe give a list of what certain food items entail or what they're called because my friend and I were just taste testing each one and guessing what they were...it was fun and interesting, but others might not feel that way..."

"We celebrated a birthday afternoon tea here and loved every minute so much we stayed much longer than expected! Each bite on the tea tower was delicious and we couldn’t decide which of the savory Thai morsels we liked best but really loved the curry puff, pork sticky rice, massaman bun and the sweet peanut dumplings. And the mango sticky rice rolled into a flower. And the mini cupcakes with buttercream frosting. See— they were all good! The peach and passion fruit tea was also aromatic and delicious. That was our favorite of the two we tried. And we also ordered a side of the tofu popcorn which were mouthwatering. They did ask about food allergies first for the tea tower. Great day all around. Make sure to call ahead for a reservation for tea and come with a bit of time on your hands if it gets busy. Will definitely go back."

"I’m a sucker for afternoon high tea service and wish that there were more places that offer it here in NYC. The ones I know about in Manhattan are a bit on the higher end in terms of prices, so it was great to hear about Madame Tea Sweet House. They recently opened in Woodside, Queens and are offering their version of afternoon tea service. The tea service is called East Meets West ($39.99) and is Thai focused. You have your choice of tea and includes both savory and sweet items like chicken and meat dumplings, cupcakes, coconut mango jelly, steamed banana cake, sticky rice balls (Bua Loi), grated coconut, and layered pandan dessert (Khanom Chan), just to name a few. The items are petite sized and perfect for those who want to try a variety of Thai desserts both traditional and new. The presentation was on point and was so visually stunning. I loved the fact that a lot of the items in the tea service were new to me. My favorite items were the three savory sweet bird dumplings (Chor Muang) filled with ground meat, and radishes. They were shaped like tiny birds, had a silky, chewy dough filled with ground chicken & pork. It was so very tasty. Funnily enough, the tea was actually the least exciting component of the whole thing. We chose to get Jasmine green and it was surprisingly just a tea bag and not house blend loose leaf tea that is usually served with high tea. Along with the tea service, we also ordered Larb Pork Nachos ($16.95). Larb is usually served with sticky rice or lettuce wrap so I really loved their version with nachos. The larb was tangy, full of flavor with lots of fresh herbs, and had a slight spicy kick. It was so perfect with the nachos which added a crunchy element to each bite. I could have eaten this whole dish by myself. We very much enjoyed our visit. The space, while small with about 4-5 small tables, was decorated so cute. The staff and owner came by several times to check on us. They even put the movie Breakfast at Tiffany’s on the screen for us to watch while we waited for our food. It was just a very lovely time, and we will be coming back."
