Teaism is tasty but lifeless at dinner



After trying to get a table at Central, Oyamel, Rasika, and Nando's we ended up eating at Teaism. I like Teaism-- they serve tasty, fresh food on nice plates and for a good price. I like it a lot for lunch. I like it a lot less for dinner. For some reason this isn't a popular place for dinner. Is it the basement location?

It was quiet when we went there, and therefore a bit suspicious in the kid's eyes. The chicken curry was delish although indefinable as to it's origin, but I thought the seitan stir fry covered with handfuls of macadamia nuts was even better. The thing is, it's all pretty passable and for sure a place where you will get a seat. But just don't expect it to be too much fun.

Good for baby? Yes and no. He would have preferred something with more of a buzz, but there is a fish pond. At lunch it's more of a business crowd. There are clean bathrooms and plenty of good food options for kids and adults alike, and it certainly isn't fancy. If you have a stroller the upstairs seating is very limited and there isn't an elevator for the main dining room.
