    Chez Bacchus has been on my list of places to try and luckily a friend hosted their birthday here -- a must try! We attended for a tea party and had a ball! The service was impeccable and I loved the recommendations for wine pairings. The pastries and danishes served were so fresh and I loved the presentationof the various teas we could choose from. I highly recommend upgrading to the Queens Tower! Better wine options and a heartier meal. The Veuve Cliquot Rich with the ice ball was perfect! I'm really looking forward to coming for dinner next time . It truly is a gem in East Village.

    I had the BEST time coming here. Before I get into the review itself, if you can dress up in your best tea attire, it does wonders for the full tea experience (and luckily they have fun hats in many colors and styles for you to choose from if you don't have one). I went here for my friend's birthday and when I stepped in, I was pleasantly surprised with the space and how pleasant and professional the staff were. The arrangement of teas, both caffeinated and non-caffeinated for folks like me that don't drink caffeine, paired so well with the different pastries, breads, and other items on their food tower. They had sugar cubes and milk that you could add to teas for your liking and our hostess even let us mix different teas together for the ultimate experience. I also really enjoyed their thick cut bacon (and I mean thick!). I would love to come back here to enjoy their dinner menu and I know it will be great because everything is fresh, made to order, and you can tell the staff from the cook to the host to the owner really enjoy what they do and want you to have a great experience. If you go to Chez Bacchus you won't regret it!

    This restaurant has been on my list for the longest time so I decided to make a reservation to celebrate my birthday during their afternoon tea! This was hands down the best tea time experience I have ever had. I had a large party of 12 guests and we all had the absolute best time! Everything from the service to the food was high quality and top notch. We had the honor of receiving our tea service by Melissa who was truly the most patient, kind, knowledgeable, and accommodating server. She walked us through all the tea options and helped us make our choices. Her amazing service honestly made the experience so much more enjoyable. Since it was my birthday I opted for the Queen's Tower which comes with the regular bacchus tower and soup plus two additional courses which includes caviar on soft scrambled eggs and smoked salmon on a sourdough Bellini; all paired with a glass of Veuve Clicquot. All of their pastries are made fresh in house and you can tell because it was so good. We also got their bacon and bread baskets for the table. The sourdough bread basket was the star of the show, it was fresh and perfectly served warm! The turmeric and charcoal sourdough was my favorite . I also received a complimentary tea to-go that I could enjoy at home! Needless to say I would highly recommend this restaurant and I plan to be back to try their dinner soon!

    This review is for tea time! Had an absolute wonderful time. They were so sweet and even provided a birthday sash and a parting gift. The teas were so good as were the treats on the tower. We got the Bacchus tower. $19 up charge for a glass of prosecco was a little wild but all in all it was worth it. It's super cute and airy inside. Staff is really sweet. They also offer valet for $15. Otherwise, street parking available. I'd love to come back and try their regular menu.

    This farm to table restaurant changes their menu with the seasons. The owner John makes you feel like you're family when you check in at the front and makes it a point to remember you. His staff is just the same way, always welcoming and like old friends meeting up for dinner. I've had their bread with the roasted garlic, the fried shrimp that is perfectly crunchy and tangy, their scallops and many other dishes. We got once every couple months and the menu changes but their are a couple items here or there that will occasionally stay but everything and anything you order is amazing and done with a personal touch that makes going here a different mouthwatering experience every time. Also, 1000% recommend the Afternoon Tea. Such a cool experience.

    Our visits have been exceptional, from the moment you walk in you are treated with 5 star service, from staff greeting to drinks, and the quality of food. The restaurant itself makes you feel like you are in Napa or Santa Ynez Valley... It's just such a great ambiance, you have to experience for yourself. John's staff is amazing: from the young man brings around cucumber and various citrus slices to add to your water, or the many waiters that pass by the table checking in. The cocktails.... So good and so worthy of drinking :). John's amazing knowledge of wines is mind boggling. The menu changes with the seasons yet the quality & taste of the food does not!

    First time here & we did their fall afternoon tea. I love how they incorporated the fall flavors into their food items. They have a great selection of loose leaf teas to choose from and they explain each tea in the box. Once you choose your tea they put it in a clear tea pot & you can watch it steep- there was one tea that changed colors. Everything is so beautiful inside, especially the china, & this is a fun idea for family, friend, or group meet ups. They rotate their menu with the seasons, can't wait to try a different one.

    I've been here several times since my first review. Chez Bacchus is always excellent. They now have a full bar and drinks are yummy. This review is for tea service which I love. Tea is brought to table and each blend explained which is a nice touch. The tea towers are full of yummy treats and are modified seasonally. In the fall, we had Pumpkin Scones, Apple Muffins, Special bread on Finger Sandwiches, Tiramisu....everything is super yummy! So much food, we always bring some home. Shout out to Staff! We made a comment that one in our party was hard of hearing and they changed placements to be sure she could hear. Love the tea decorations! Staff had masks and offered us our own to wear for Tea. Lovely place to go.

    First time diners at Chez Bacchus. They are farm to table, using local vendors. We made a reservation for the bar and pretty much had it to ourselves. They had a nice selection of alcohol and a small international wine list. We started with cocktails, the boyfriend with a Hendricks martini and me with a Cosmopolitan. We started with the bread basket which contains like 5 different flavored breads, very tasty. Then we both ordered the Spring salad which came with avocado, sorghum, and the most flavorful and juicy strawberries. I got mine with no avocado or sorghum, so they added more strawberries and it was the most beautiful salad I've ever seen. For my main I got the New York steak with potatoes and sweet spring peas with mint. I wasn't crazy about the mint but the peas were tender and fresh. The steak was prepared to a perfect medium rare. I ordered the whole roasted garlic bulb with the steak which added nice flavor. The boyfriend ordered the lamb and was very pleased. Parking is valet out front for $15. All in all a great experience and we'll be back.

    Tea time!

    STEPH JUDGEMENT: Fantastic afternoon high tea experience. A friend treated me to an afternoon tea here for my birthday and we had an amazing time. We've been to our share of fancy teas and this one's among the top. The interior was gorgeous, with great light from all their large windows. I felt relaxed the instant I walked in. The servers made us feel welcome right away and were fantastic throughout. You know you're in for great service when they switch out the default white napkin for a black one since you're wearing black. After looking at their two tea options, we both decided on the Bacchus Tower, as the upgrade to the Queen's Tower didn't seem necessary at the time. Our server brought out a tea box with the loose leaf teas to explain our options, and we were off to the races! They brought out a small salad to start, which was kind of different--most teas will just drop off your tiered tower of stuff and that'd be that. The summer salad with market peaches was delicious; I imagine this salad will change seasonally. Since one of the savory tier items was a chicken salad sandwich and I don't eat meat, they had no problem with me subbing it with a second quiche. All the various items were great, with some interesting choices, like the watermelon shooters, which were refreshing. We did end up spontaneously getting a bottle of sparkling wine, for which they brought out one of those tableside standing ice buckets, raising the fanciness level up another notch. They never made us feel hurried, and we lingered a good long while. We were both very impressed--I think we'll be back for another special occasion before too long!

    Went here for a friend's birthday and the experience was superb! Negatives: -price, this place is a higher fair high class restaurant. This is to be expected, however the experience we got was definitely unforgettable. Positives: -service was amazing. From the servers to the owner, the care and attention to detail was outstanding. -food was great, we had table side bananas foster and very exquisite entrées. I had lamb neck, my wife had salmon, and the appetizer bread was great too. -ambiance was high class and everyone was very friendly. Overall 5/5

    Tea time celebration
    Wendy L.

    We came here for teatime, and the selection was incredible. All four of us chose different teas, and every single one was excellent. The appetizers and finger foods were spot-on -- and oh my gosh, the bacon was unforgettable. The sandwiches and the three-tier spread were all fantastic. Service was attentive and warm, and the place itself was super cute with a great atmosphere. We had a wonderful time.

    A fine dining dream! Staff made me feel very special- opening doors, tending to me and my dates needs, and being very knowledgeable about the dishes. This is absolutely a place to go to for special occasions or a romantic night out with the ambiance consisting of dim lights, classy modern interior. Even the water we were given included an optional citrus medley. The food is farm-to-table which meant everything was prepared freshly that day. Our dessert- monkey bread- was even prepared right before our eyes. I didn't expect to have entertainment while we ate, it was such a special experience! Thank you to all the staff, absolutely coming here again

They changed the name subtle enough to avoid a lawsuit, but the changes in the menu and the quality of the drinks are far more drastic, and it's not for the better. Gone are the traditional teas and sesame jelly that made Hechalou so famous. These options are replaced by cheap imitations of Starbucks' frothy drinks that sound good on paper but taste like iced piss with sugar. The drinks are excessively sweet, a mortal sin by Asian standard, and they have a generic taste that might as well have one item on the entire menu. Alas, to get a sip of the old favorites, now I have to drive across town instead of stop by after work. I am glad that I got my many trips here before the old guards died, and it's probably better for my hemoglobin A1c in the long run.

It was all just too much to resist, so here I am. Go ahead, give me the liquid crack and let me relish every yummy sip. My go to is Oreo Brûlée Boba Milk with little ice, 100% sweetness + cheese foam & xtra Oreo. I ordered at the kiosk and then noticed the signs near the register. One stated "cards only, no cash", the other asked for patience as there was only one person working to fulfill orders. He never stopped! Those order tickets kept printing and he just kept on working. When a family came in and opted to order at the counter, he patiently worked through each of the 4 kids and the parent to make sure everyone got what they wanted. Looking at my time stamps, I only waited about 10 minutes and he thanked me for my patience. My drink was everything I remembered it to be - DO NOT SLEEP ON CHEESE FOAM!!! They recommend shaking your drink 17 times, but I say rebel! Enjoy each layer. That cheese foam floating on top deserves its own sweet, creamy attention. Ambiance??? Hmmm....Not much, honestly. Sunright used to be a cute Insta kinda vibe, but now it seems a bit tired and in need of a refresher. Since the kiosk order boards, customers pretty much enter, head to kiosks, enter orders, pay, then take a seat on the long bench lining the wall across from the prep/kitchen area, silently scrolling screens while waiting. Drink is made, ticket gets stuck on cup and name called. Done. It may be another few years before I return, considering how much I've cut sugar out of my daily routine, but when I do, I hope that consistently chewy, perfectly fresh boba at the bottom and the sweet, creamy cheese foam on top are still there to welcome me back to Oreo Brûlée Boba Milk tea euphoria. Cheers! "CC"
