A Dash of Panache

I found A Dash of Panache a couple of years ago when we attended a Holiday High Tea there. I have brought various family (daughters, their husbands, grandchildren, cousins) and friends to tea sittings at least a few times every year since. I have never written a review until now and that is rude of me because they deserve it. They have always treated me and my guests with loving kindness. I can tell this is a Christian facility by the way they love on us all.
Their scones are really, honestly, the best I have ever had anywhere. I have visited a variety of tea parlors and tea houses in California and abroad and I keep coming back to Panache because of two things: 1. The food and environment is superior. 2. The owners and staff are over the top.
If you have not tried this wonderful establishment yet, I encourage you to do so! If you have tried it before, I hope you do as I'm finally doing and tell others about it.

Bought a Groupon and went for the first time to their place. Everything exceeded my expectations by a long shot. I recommend them!

I bought a Groupon last fall for an Afternoon Luncheon Tea Sitting at this establishment. I was not expecting much but I was overwhelmingly surprised at just about my whole experience! The French design of the parlor was so unique and fun, I could not stop looking at the paintings, high heels, fashion items, etc. Beautiful. The tea selection was huge. Unfortunately, this meant the print was small so they could fit in all the wonderfully descriptions about each tea, which was very helpful. The family story was special and heart-warming. I loved the piano music, the smells, the friendliness of the wait staff, and the loving discussion with the owner. The food was some of the best food I've had at a tea parlor, and that includes the world-famous parlor in Victoria Canada. We borrowed clean and fancy items from the hat closet and a hostess took our photo at the table for us with my friend's camera. Overall, we loved it thoroughly.

Mom and I came to this tea house for the first time, thanks to the Groopon coupon. I marked Excellent in all areas because it really was that good. The interior was so extremely unique in design. We both loved it! The dressup closet was laughter and lots of fun memories will be with us both for years to come. The team that took care of us that day were really down to earth and friendly. They explained each course of scrumptious food that was served to us and every single thing was put together in a tastebud thrilling way. Mom loved the piano music playing. We will be attending the christmas event in the winter! We are both new fans.

I attended on Sunday, August 21, 2011 for a luncheon tea sitting that I received via the groupon coupon I bought for $10 (a $20 value). Because I have been to this parlor several times before, I was half expecting to receive a less-than-normal tea sitting because of the extreme discount of the groupon. But I was in for a delightful surprise when the tea meal and service we received was completely up to par and I was treated like I always have been in the past, which was like a queen. I also must say that there was a couple sitting next to us that was rather grumpy from the moment they walked in until the moment they left. I was very impressed with the staff and the parlor manager/owner as they sensed their grumpiness and went above and beyond to give them every chance possible to cheer up. It didn't appear they turned around their attitudes but I can only imagine they had a horrible situation outside of the sitting today. Great job to Dash staff for staying so positive around grumpy people.

My tea girlfriends travel about looking for fun and interesting tea parlors around the west coast. We have been to dozens and have probably seen it all when it comes to decor, recipes, and so on. All five of us had a superior time at your parlor in Roseville. I loved the French design of the room, black table coverings, crystal ware, chic art work and displays, music, dress up closet, clean powder room, gourmet recipes, and friendly staff. The price was reasonable too. One of my friends is vegetarian and she was very pleased with the avocado and tomato sandwich instead of our tasty chicken salad petites.
I believe you deserve excellent in all areas.

Enjoyed an elegant after-wedding tea with my bffs. I love this place and everything about it.

Thoroughly enjoyed Easter tea at this cute little French decor tea parlor in Roseville, CA. The waitresses were kind and the owner was friendly. Appreciated the spiritual touch (not too heavy but just right). The menu was over the top and easily earned an 'excellent' grade on this review form. I'll be back for certain.

I am a tea nut from the Boston area transplanted into Northern California where they are not supposed to know anything about tea. After all, we threw the biggest tea party, the Boston Tea Party! This parlor did an excellent job of decorating the tables and serving supurb tea-related food courses. I was impressed with the fun of steeping my own tea in my own teapot right at our table. Enjoyed the music too since the pianist was from our eastern neck of the woods.

Our ladies social group from church came to a special Valentine's event. Our group filled the room. Panache decorated the parlor in a decked-out Valentine's theme that took my breath away. Seeewwww cuuuuute! The tea food was supurbe and the service was attentive and friendly. I had a wonderful time with my friends.
