Jasmine Green Tea
"I LOVE this place. They make the best iced jasmine green tea. They are careful to time the steep time and the temperature of the water so it doesn't get bitter. So, so good! That's my favorite."

"Their “Flaming Bird” sandwich is TOP-NOTCH!!! And I’m a huge fan of their selection of teas to choose from! The staff is also extremely friendly and accommodating."
