Our server was named, Jingle. She was trying to offer us the $40 per person menu and when we told her we would do the a la carte menu (because we just ate at momofuku) her attitude instantly changed! By far the worst! We expected so much more from a tea lounge at mandarin. Very disappointed. Also, my friend made a reservation for weeks ahead and she noted to them that we were celebrating a birthday. & yet they didn't do anything special! We looked over to the next table and they got this birthday cupcake with candle, to make them feel special for their day..
she barely checked up on us. She passed by us about 5 times with our check ready to be picked up. And even though we were trying to get her attention, she ignored us. We had to get another server to pick up our check just so we could leave.
One star for the tea and pastries cause they were good. But this was such a bad experience. I don't recommend anyone coming here.
