I thought the atmosphere was great and the tea and food were delicious! We waited a really long time (even after the table was available) and our waiter seemed very confused - as if, perhaps, he had never worked the afternoon tea shift before. Oh, I also thought the neighborhood was great. I love walking around there, and it's a nice surprise to find a cozy, refined little tea house like that hidden in the meatpacking district.

It is hard to say what element is the best, among the tea, the service, the decor/ambiance, and the food. While the prices are by no means low, that must be expected, since this is truly a premium tea experience. Unlike many other city tea rooms--which tend toward cramped/hole-in-the-wall, the tea serving room at Arium is quite spacious and airy. This is also a gallery space and on the occasion we were there the walls were adorned with large, colorful and very beautiful paintings. Our teapot was refilled several times with fresh hot water, so that I walked out with a really superior theanine-caffiene buzz. The rare white tea we tried was great tasting, too.

I had the wonderful occasion to experience Afternoon tea at this exceptional tea room. Every aspect of the tea service was delightful. From beginning to end this tearoom is NOT to be missed. We had a tea tour with author and Tea Expert Elizabeth Knight and then savored the 3 kinds of scones, delicious finger sandwiches and scrumptious desserts. It was tea heaven.
