Formosa Art Tea House
Formosa is a little hard to find, since it is in the back corner of the strip center at Pecan and Railroad, but it is well worth the effort! They have teas you will NEVER find anyplace else, since they have direct access to some farms in Taiwan. The food is varied and tasty, including some unusual snacks and some hearty fare if you are really hungry. Artistry is where they really shine, the owner, Riva, can show you how to prepare Gong Fu Tea, which is like chess, you can learn in minutes, but it takes a lifetime to master. The service is sometimes a one-woman show, but she stays on top of everything and brings top-notch quality of service every time. You will have a hard time finding staff with a greater passion for their product.

The Steeping Room
Great tea selection, good food selection, but Oh My Frikkin' Gosh expensive!!! You're paying more for the location and upscale style than the actual fare. Still, it is much better than the Starbucks next door by miles, but that's not that hard to do.
