Didn't realize the spot rebranded itself until I got here with some friends looking for a quick bite in the area. Previously, it was mainly serving their tea menu. We got a variety of dishes to try out, and overall it was just ok. The soup was good but was a little light on ingredients, the papaya salad was decent with a little kick, noodles didn't really have much truffle taste but was ok, green beans were crunchy and probably the best dish here, and the mango sticky rice was not ripe. Most of the mango pieces were hard / not sweet and proportion to the rice was off. The staff was friendly and the space is very open and welcoming. Not sure if I'd come back though unless I was craving the Asian fusion tea service. read more

BUSINESS PERMANENTLY CLOSING 6/28/26 Came here with some gals for afternoon tea. It's a cute little restaurant in Old Towne Orange. It's decorated really cute inside and out! Everything was creatively planned and decorated. It was also very clean and spacious inside and out. When you go in, there's a tea sampling station with the menus so you can see which tea you would like to order. Our server was really sweet, but she was the only one serving all of the tables, so she would come by every 10-20 minutes to check on us and some things we asked for didn't make it to the table. If they had more servers, customers would be happy with quicker service. The food and tea were delish! There were 6 of us so we shared a bunch of different teas. I really enjoyed the teas they had. The sweet and savory treats were really yummy! I really enjoyed them. Each person got 5 little savory treats and 4 sweet treats. I kind of wish we got one or two more for $45, but either way they were delicious! We had a great time and were sad to learn that the business will be permanently closing down tomorrow (6/28/26), I would have loved to continue going back! read more

I was super excited to try this spot, but it was a bit underwhelming. Service was a bit slow and the food was okay. Nothing super memorable. Server was very nice though. I would recommend for them to upgrade and get new menus as the ones I got were all stained and in bad condition. Small details like this is important and easy to fix. Total was about $112 for 2. read more

Star Leaf - Tea Rooms Near Me - Orange, California

Food: We came here for afternoon tea, each ordering the tea set, and overall the food really stood out. The finger foods was Asian‑inspired, with flavors like black sesame, curry, and other creative twists that made each bite feel unique. Every piece was thoughtfully made, rich, and decadent without feeling repetitive, and the presentation was beautiful across the board. It definitely felt like a more elevated, modern take on afternoon tea. The tea itself, however, fell a bit short for me. I ordered a non‑caffeinated chrysanthemum tea, which unfortunately didn't have much depth or flavor. My friend's Darjeeling was better, but still not as rich or complex as I've had elsewhere. Given how strong the Asian inspiration is in the food, it would've been nice to see more thoughtful decaf tea options in that same direction, like decaf sencha, barley tea, or kuromamecha, to better match the concept. Price: The afternoon tea service is prix fixe at around $45 per person, which includes a curated set of savory bites, desserts, and a pot of tea. For the quality and creativity of the food, the price feels pretty reasonable compared to other OC tea services, though the tea itself didn't quite meet the same level as the food. Ambiance: The space is bright, warm, and inviting, with a nice amount of natural sunlight coming in that makes it feel cozy rather than stuffy. There are subtle Asian design elements woven into the décor, giving it a modern, slightly upscale feel without being overly formal. It's a great spot to catch up with friends and linger over tea. Service: Service was good, friendly, welcoming, and attentive without being overbearing. Even during a busy service, staff remained kind and approachable, which added to the overall relaxed vibe. Parking: Parking can take a bit of effort. Since it's located on a busy street in Orange, you may need to circle around the roundabout or park a little farther away and walk over. Not impossible, but definitely something to plan for, especially on weekends. read more

Just tried out Star Leaf and it was a great experience!I love the concept of an Asian fusion tea time. I thought the savories were a nice mix of Asian and classic with both creamy cucumber sando and the egg sandwich as well as the shrimp cake and the gyoza. The shrimp cake was definitely my favorite, I think they did an excellent job. The desserts were also a good mix between the different tarts and the cream puffs. I especially enjoyed the pink lychee truffle dessert--SO good! The teas were presented in a cute way with glass pots. We tried the Passionfruit and the Darjeeling, which out of the two, my favorite was the Darjeeling. You do get to sample teas as well, which is great if you're unfamiliar! The only thing I would love to see here is a loose leaf brewed tea selection versus the teabag. I think it's more suitable for the pre-fixe tea time. I very much still enjoyed our teas, however, and will return to try out the full service dining! read more

As someone who enjoys afternoon tea, I was excited to try Star Leaf, which is a new rebrand of the former Tea Modern Chinese down in Old Towne Orange. No reservation required for the afternoon tea experience, this should have been a red flag. Upon entering, I informed them I was there for the afternoon tea experience. They told me to sample the teas in front and picked one. I liked both the Darjeeling and the Lavender Chamomile, and ultimately decided on the Darjeeling because it is the more unique one of the two and I needed some caffeine to get some work done. I had my laptop and my huge purse with me... and the restaurant only had one other table of guests... and yet I was squeezed into this tiny table with limited space. As "nice" as they were trying to be... maybe not common sense on giving the customer a comfortable experience. So their Afternoon Tea ($45/person) is cheaper than other afternoon tea experiences but it is also more lacking in offerings. No scone and accompaniments, no option for soup or salad. It is basically more affordable because it is offering less. The tea came out first. CATFISH MOMENT. When I was sampling the tea, the tea display in front had these tubes of loose tea leaves. Most tea houses offer teas with loose tea leaves... somehow when I get my tea pot, IT'S A TEA BAG. HOW DISAPPOINTING!! The tray was simply a top layer of savory bites and a bottom layer of sweet bites. Remember my comments on the red flag about not requiring a reservation prior?? Well most tea houses require a reservation so they can prepare an adequate amount of treats. I TASTED the staleness and lacking freshness of these offerings. Savory: - Egg Salad Sando: Sandwich bread dried along the edges, clearly premade and not well preserved. At best average. - Cucumber Sandwich: Sandwich bread dried along the edges, clearly premade and not well preserved. Awful execution of the cucumber sandwich you find at most afternoon tea offerings. This was so bland. - Curry Chicken Basket: Interesting curry in a waffle like base, and wrapped like a shu mai. Better than the sandwiches. - Shrimp Cakes: The best item on the savory layer but oily. - Mushroom Potsticker: Decent potsticker, but not good enough to make me come back here. Sweets: - Chocolate Custard Tart: Looks like they bought a premade base and filled it randomly with stuff. Not tasty. Wow how do you mess up chocolate? - Papaya Penna Cotta: Not a typo on my part, but I think their menu meant panna cotta?? I took one bite and put it back. The papaya was overriped and the inside was more of a cheap coconut jello than a fancy panna cotta. - Black Sesame Puff: The exterior was stale and the cream had build up on the outer layer. Clearly premade but not well preserved. Not tasty. - Raspberry Lychee Mousse: The best bite on the sweet tray. I was pleasant surprised after all of the other awful treats on this layer. I am thoroughly disappointed. I had my laptop with me because I planned to stay here and work for a few hours but the food was so awful I didn't want to order anything else from them. Also after they set down the tea setting, there wasn't too much checking on the customer experience. Considering how empty it was, I think they had bandwidth to be more personable. I do not recommend the afternoon tea experience. I know they have a separate dinner offering that I hear is decent... but my experience was so dreadful I'm not motivated to come back. read more

Cute concept but poor execution. At $45 per person for a total of 9 mini bites (5 savory, 4 sweet) and one pot of tea, I expected the service to be better. Although staff was friendly, the quality of service was choppy at best. After being seated for 15 minutes, the waitress finally stopped by our table to take our order. The first thing she told us was that we only have 90 minutes dining time which started counting at reservation time, after making us wait 15 minutes to place order. The food is decent, but nothing stood out except the shrimp cake. There was no cream, milk or sugar at the table for the teas that may need them. Typically you can order regular menu food à la carte (like orange chicken, short ribs, etc) but they don't do it on weekends when they are busy so it's a pain to bring kids here who don't necessarily enjoy cucumber or egg salad sandwich. For a place with 5 staff and only 7-8 tables occupied when we visited, the level of chaos in service was obvious and painful to watch. I think the concept of the restaurant is unique for the area, but the staff needs lots more help. read more

We found Star leaf on yelp and finally went thete and wow... so glad we did!! place is STUNNING inside, legit feels fancy and upscale the second you walk in. pauline greeted us at the door, super sweet and patient while we stood there staring at the menu forever trying to decide lol. They offer a $45 afternoon tea prefix menu but we just ordered off the regular menu and everything was legit. And here's what we got: * Crown fried rice w/ seafood + fish roe 5/5 easy, best fried rice i've had in a minute, those little pops of roe * Mango sticky rice 4.8/5 perfect sweetness, mango was ripe af * Coconut Panna cotta 4.8/5 creamy dreamy coconut heaven * Som tum papaya salad 4.6/5 spicy tangy crunchy everything i wanted * Pad thai mixed 4.5/5 noodles on point, not too sweet like some places * Gold yellow curry w/ beef 4.3/5 rich and flavorful, beef was tender * Royal thai iced milk tea 4/5 solid but the food stole the show Restroom was clean, service was on point, whole vibe is classy but still chill. only complaint is parking is a total nightmare, took me like 30 minutes circling lol but 100% worth it. Already planning the next trip back. if you like Thai food that looks almost too pretty to eat, come here!! My Personal Rating: 4.78 Food 4.8/5 Staff 5/5 Price 4.5/5 Ambiance 4.8/5 Cleanliness 4.8/5 read more

This spot was formerly called Tea Modern Chinese, but now it's Star Leaf Orange! They're known for their Asian-inspired afternoon tea, but now they also serve lunch and dinner. For small plates/apps, I'd recommend the Thai Prawn Ceviche! It has black tiger prawns, onion, tomato, cilantro, mint, and Thai chili fish sauce (the best part!). It's so yummy! It's marked as spicy, but I didn't think it was too spicy which made it enjoyable! It's very refreshing. Great way to start the meal. For mains, we got a few different dishes. My favorite is their Madame Noi's Pork Collar. It has a tasty soy molasses marinade and comes with lettuce cups, cucumber, mint, Thai basic. They give you a basil garlic dipping sauce on the side and some rice. With this dish, you build your own wrap with the ingredients provided. I wasn't sure how I'd feel about the texture of pork collar, but this one was really good! One of their menu highlights is their Royal Crown Fried Rice. If you get it with the seafood and fish roe, it comes with this layer of fish roe across the top of the fried rice. So pretty to look at! You can also add chicken, beef, or mix to your fried rice if you prefer. The Golden Curry has a nice variety of vegetables including eggplant, zucchini, string beans, red bell peppers, and scallions. You get a choice of protein, but I'd recommend the soft shell crab! Perfectly crispy and different than other protein options I've seen with curry! They also have a Truffle Wok Seared Noodles though I don't think the black truffle flavor was very strong. Would high recommend the Thai Prawn Ceviche and Madame Noi's Pork Collar! read more

I came for a delightful afternoon tea with my daughters, and it was such an enjoyable experience. They offer a great selection of teas, with samples available at the front of the restaurant. I chose the Chai Masala. I normally prefer cream in my chai, but this one was absolutely delicious on its own. Rich, aromatic, and perfectly balanced. They offer a set afternoon tea menu that includes: Savory Items Mushroom Potsticker Shrimp Cakes Egg Salad Sando Curry Chicken Basket Cucumber Sandwich Sweets Black Sesame Puff Raspberry Lychee Mousse Chocolate Custard Tart Papaya Panna Cotta Everything tasted incredibly thoughtful, from the flavors to the presentation. Each item had great texture and balance. My favorite savory was the Curry Chicken Basket, I could honestly eat 100 of these. The flavor was outstanding, and the edible shell was a delightful surprise. My favorite sweet was the Papaya Panna Cotta, which surprised me because I'm not usually a fan of papaya. This version was light, refreshing, and perfectly sweet. The restaurant itself has a clean, modern, and upscale feel with a calm, quiet ambiance. I truly enjoyed my time here with my daughters (both adults), and the service was attentive and friendly throughout. A wonderful afternoon tea experience overall. read more

I've already been to Star Leaf in Pasadena and enjoyed the experience, so when I heard that they had taken over where TEA Modern Chinese used to be, I knew I had to come try it. I brought my cousin along for Saturday afternoon tea (online reservations were super easy to make ahead of time), and we were made to wait a little bit while our table was prepared. We didn't mind at all, since there was a table near the entrance area that was laden with teapots, from which guests are able to pour themselves complimentary samples of tea. It was nice to be able to try the various teas ahead of time so that we could decide ahead of ordering. It was a nice breath of fresh air to try an afternoon tea with an Asian twist, and we loved how affordable yet delicious the savories and sweets were. Our favorites included the Curry Chicken Basket, the Shrimp Cake, and the Papaya Panna Cotta. The servers came by and replenished our tea frequently, and it was always piping hot. One thing that people might want to note is that the interior of the restaurant looks just like...a restaurant. Star Leaf is a restaurant that just happens to offer an afternoon tea service. Just wanted to bring this point up to those who are looking for a certain kind of (frilly, feminine) ambiance with their tea service! read more

Inspired by traditional British afternoon tea with a touch of Asian flavor, this place reminded me of the tea sets I used to enjoy back in Hong Kong and in luxury hotels in Japan. Walking in, the décor feels cozy yet elegant. I loved that we could sample the teas before ordering, and they even had non-caffeinated options for my toddler. After some careful consideration, my bestie and I chose our favorites: jasmine green tea and passion fruit jasmine black tea -- one stronger, one lighter, just perfect. Each bite has its own unique taste. For savory, I highly recommend the house-made shrimp cake. The curry chicken basket was also beautifully done. For sweets, instead of a traditional scone, there was a refreshing papaya with pudding inside -- something new and different. Another must-try is the raspberry lychee mousse. It truly gives that East-meets-West vibe. With an open kitchen where you can watch the chefs make everything fresh by hand, this is definitely a spot worth saving for your next girls' day or self-date moment IG: socalhkfoodies read more

We thoroughly enjoyed the ambiance here; the decor, especially in the corners, is beautifully done. The crab curry (loved the flavorful, coconut base!) and seafood vermicelli were excellent.

Came here for afternoon tea and overall enjoyed the experience! When you first enter, they have a table if teas for you to try so that was fun! Their afternoon menu included 5 savory items and 4 sweet items for $45. My fave savory item was the curry chicken basket, although it would have been better warm. The egg salad sando and shrimp cake were delicious (but nothing special). My fave sweet was the raspberry lychee mousse, it had a great fruity flavor and I loved the crunchy bottom. Didn't particularly like any of the other sweets read more

High tea experience was great! We went the day when there was a large party so it got a little noisy but after they left, the place was quiet down when we could finally having conversation without yelling at each other. The food was good! I loved the curry. We tried each tea in the front. I chose the plum flavor and it was great! Just wish they would have a tea warmer for each table so tea can remain warm when it was brought to the table. The service is was on point. Everyone is so friendly and attention. 5 out of 5. Strongly recommend!! read more

This is a Star you have to Beleaf! The teapot set up is so pretty it will steal your heart like a thief. Asian inspired afternoon tea that was a tasty satisfaction to me. Familiar sweets and bites but some that had me curious with eye pleasing delight. Like the Curry Chicken and Mushroom Potsticker that were new to me but had my tastebuds satisfied with glee. We also enjoyed the variety of teas before we got started and choosing just one left us just a little brokenhearted. All was amazing except for the service cause if you don't like your job stay at home because paying customers don't deserve this. Besides the teas you can also opt for wine, mimosas or bubbles and surely you'll be leaving here causing trouble. And that's my take on this sweet leaf, Peace out... read more

What a sweet place to come to for a High Tea experience. My friend and I made a reservation to bring our two college girls and I did not disappoint. The service was very friendly and attentive. They had various teas to choose from and provide provided a table to sample that before you ordered. The way it was set up with the sandwiches and desserts was that each of us (4 total) was able to have one piece of what was provided on the trays. For the amount spent it would have been nice to have more options included. We ended up ordering us an orange chicken because the High Tea options weren't enough. read more

I visited Star Leaf with my parents on a Sunday early evening. There were only two other tables of customers when we arrived. The lady (I believe she was either the manager or owner) who was helping us out with our orders throughout our meal was very friendly & attentive. We got the siu mai to share with the table, but it ended up being the last to arrive--we assumed that it was because they were made fresh to order. My mom & I asked for the chilean sea bass, but we were told that the dish wasn't available for that day so we opted for the chicken satay instead. My dad ordered their black pepper beef strips. We all tried each other's dishes & thought everything was delicious! I appreciate that they have a table for customers to try the teas they offer. I would love to visit Star Leaf again for their tea experience! read more

i wanted to celebrate my birthday at an afternoon tea and was intrigued by star leaf's asian inspired afternoon tea! for about $45/person, we were able to have our own individual tea pot with our tea of choice and the afternoon tea prefixed menu. i was able to sample all of the teas at the front of store and decided on the darjeeling tea, which was a light floral black tea and definitely my favorite out of the ones offered. for the prefixed menu, we had a good variety of little bites. savory: - mushroom potsticker: perfectly crunchy and fresh with a good flavor - egg salad sando: pretty standard egg salad but bread could have been softer - cucumber sandwich: standard, would have liked a softer bread - curry chicken basket: this one was really unique! it was a curry chicken salad in a waffle cone. im not sure if i liked the waffle cone though? but the flavor and texture was overall fine - shrimp cake: my favorite! pretty typical fried shrimp paste cake that you would get at a dim sum, but still yummy nonetheless sweet: - papaya panna cotta: i expected more of a panna cotta with a papaya topping, so it was interesting getting just a slice of papaya with the center dug out for the panna cotta. this was not my fave honestly - raspberry lychee mousse: this was my favorite! the raspberry had a nice tart flavor, and it paired well with the lychee and crunchy biscuit - black sesame puff: the black sesame cream was only on top and not in the center, so i didn't like it as much. would have loved it if it was entirely filled with black sesame - chocolate custard tart: yummy! i liked how crunchy the tart was, and the chocolate flavor was very smooth and rich overall, this was a cute afternoon tea place in orange. the staff were really friendly and attentive to my party, and the service was pretty quick for a friday afternoon. parking is always hard around old towne orange tho, so beware! read more

Love the decorations and the open kitchen layout. We decided to skip the tea pre fix menu and dive right into their food menu. Everything was amazing! The food is good for 4 people ( family style). Highly recommend getting the ceviche. The chicken satay was delicious as well! Great taste with a nice kick to it! Our waitress Alyssa was a great server. She was so sweet and very informative!

Went on a rainy Sunday to catch up with friends. Although the place wasn't packed, street parking was impossible to find. Luckily, there was a parking structure (Old Towne West Public Parking Structure) within walking distance which didn't charge. My friends and I had a reservation but they looked open for walk-ins since it wasn't busy. Overall the food, ambience, and service were great! We ordered afternoon tea ($45 per person) and shared other plates that were not included (spicy tom yum soup and scallion pancakes). The asian-inspired afternoon tea included savory items and desserts (one piece for each person). Each person also receives a pot of tea of their choice. The items I enjoyed the most were the soup, masala chai tea, raspberry lychee mousse, and curry chicken basket. I personally enjoy going to places with afternoon tea. Some spots can feel too basic with their selection of food/desserts but Star Leaf's assortment really stands out. I would love to come back here and I'll be recommending this place to my fellow afternoon tea loving friends. read more

Very nice, modern and clean Chinese tea room. I've been to high tea before at other places but what made this experience special was the Chinese fusion menu, the food was great all around and everything was served fresh. The service here could use improvement. Our servers were polite but there was a few moments where they forgot our requests for more water, and tea condiments. There is also a strict 90 minute policy which is fine but it would have been nice to stress this in the beginning as it's not written on the menus. For a larger party this would be good to know in the beginning. Or, give us a 30 minute warning as there are mainly female customers (groups like ours) and we're it counting minutes while gathering around tea. Would i come back? Possibly for another occasion. Although I would suggest adding some kind of bread butter and jam component to the menu for the price point. It wouldn't hurt to add in a traditional scone or biscuit but make it Asian fusion. Also they don't offer their food menu until after 4 pm. So prior to this time it's only the high tea set. read more

A lovely spot for tea and small bites; everything was delicious. We had a large group seated on the back patio, which made for a really pleasant setting. The only reason I'm not giving five stars is that the teas weren't placed near the guests who ordered them. I understand that the pots are meant to be shared, but we found ourselves passing them around the table to reach the person who requested each one. A small detail, but it would have made the experience even smoother. read more

This is a review of the afternoon tea only. I've been to several afternoon teas, so I came here to experience more on the Asian fusion and tea style. Though I understand not wanting to get tea bits in my cup, I was hoping to get actually loose leaves. (I wonder if this could've been an option in future.) The tea choices were nice and stands out from other places, though a little small--it's likely due to the fact that this isn't a complete afternoon establishment and doubles as a restaurant so space and inventory are limited. I liked the decor, especially the table where the teas could be sampled, and I should come back to try the normal menu. read more

I planned a birthday dinner for my friend; there was 8 of us. I really wanted to like this place. we were excited while the food was good, Service was VERY slow. We continually had to search for our server, which is not his fault either as he seemed to be the only server there, there clearly need more staff. We also kept having to ask for missing drinks and we never even got the pot of tea we order and didn't realize we were charged for it till after we paid and left. I don't think we will be back anytime soon. It looks like they need to be a lot more organized. If we order items, we shouldn't have to ask where the items are and then remind them how many we order. Seem to happen a few times with us and a table near us. Over ambiance - was nice and a cute please. Service and organization need A LOT of improvement. read more

This restaurant is neither vegetarian-friendly nor customer-friendly. Our experience was disappointing from start to finish. Our server, Deja, had a rude attitude throughout the meal. When we politely asked her to take a picture for us, she rolled her eyes and seemed visibly annoyed. We ordered a large soup, but no bowls or spoons were provided. After asking for them, we waited nearly 10 minutes before receiving anything. Even getting water took far too long. The service was extremely disorganized, with dishes arriving one at a time instead of together. The food itself was just as disappointing. The Thai curry was the worst I've ever had. While we were still eating the pineapple fried rice, one of the employees came over and took the dish away without even asking if we were finished. To make matters worse, we waited over 20 minutes for dessert, only for Deja to finally come over and tell us the kitchen was taking too long and that we could either keep waiting or cancel the order. Overall, the service, attitude, and food quality were unacceptable. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone. read more

Love the tea tasting in the front. Everything had distinctive flavors and was very good. One of a kind place

I went last year for Valentine's Day and it was really good so I decided to come back again this year. Big mistake. They changed owners, and you can really tell the difference in quality. First off, it was me and my boyfriend so we each got a set for $45 each. Tell me why they only wanted to give us ONE pot of tea. Why are we paying $45 for one pot of tea?? If we are getting two set of afternoon tea then we should get two pots of tea. It wasn't until we complained that they gave us another pot. Never in my afternoon tea enjoying life have I ever had to deal with this. So honestly that really put a damper on our Valentine's Day. I wish the food made up for it, but it didn't. Everything was bland except for the shrimp ball which was TOO salty. There were also no scones. No scones at an afternoon tea?? Blasphemy. Save your money. read more

Food was excellent! Service took too long, but understandable with only 2 staff members that were most likely family and not professionally trained.

ALL main dishes were great. I would skip the desserts and their drinks. read more
