Dianne Tea Shop — Restaurant in Trinidad

I had the Capresse sandwich and the iced lavender latte, while my mother had a matcha rose latte. Firstly let's be real, the prices are expensive. I got the Capresse sandwich which tasted good and has no meat. However, you do have the option to add chicken for something like.... 32 dollars? I think was the price told to me? So I did not ask for chicken, but I must say that the sandwich certainly wasn't missing it, and the salad was indeed delicious. Thick slices of fresh mozzarella and tomato on cripsy bread ( what kind of bread, I cannot remember but it was indeed tasty). The dressing on the salad with its micro greens compliments the sandwich greatly, so I cannot say I regret getting the capresse. If I am to return I will likely get the same thing.

Concerning the lattes, though I personally drank the iced lavender latte, I recommend my mother's choice of the rose matcha latte. The reason being, the rose matcha is both aestheticly pleasing to the eye, and tastes like roses with dried rose petals places on top of the foam. The lavender latte however, I am going to be honest, tastes like a normal everyday latte.

While the food was decent, the server was quite unfriendly and unprofessional. She took plates and other dishes from our table without asking if we were finished with using them and in some cases while we were still using them.

Additionally, while my friends and I finished eating our lunch, we were chatting a bit before we eventually ordered dessert. To our shock, the server just came to us and placed the bill on our table. We never told her we were ready for the bill and she never even asked if we would like to order anything else or if we were ready for our bill. This was quite disrespectful and presumptuous of her especially since we were there for only less than an hour after we arrived so it’s not like we were just sitting and taking up space. Will not be...

I enjoyed my experience here. It deserves 5 stars, but I gave it 4 stars for my long wait to be seated. We made a reservation so I didn't expect that. It didn't appear to be understaffed that day. Other than that, the atmosphere, location, and ambience were fantastic. The food and drinks were delicious and filling. The espresso martini was so strong and heady. It's very affordable for a party of 5. You can shop and eat at the same time. Love that experience. I did not buy anything, although. They also have a private area to host parties, etc. I want to book that in the future. I'm definitely going back....
