What User likes about Teaism Penn Quarter:
I unexpectedly found myself alone in D.C on Wednesday due to a flight cancellation. After at least 6 hours of wandering lost in D.C, I stumbled upon Teaism Penn Quarter and I am so glad I did. The staff made this New Hampshire girl feel so welcome, like an old friend. They even kindly charged my phone so I wouldn't be stranded in a city I didn't know. I loved their refreshing icy matcha (the best I've ever had) and t... View all feedback. What User doesn't like about Teaism Penn Quarter:
The Udon soup was pretty good and portion size was generous. The grilled chicken bento box, however, was not very good. The grilled chicken had a heavy charcoal flavor and was overcooked. The sauces atop the veggies were very one note and detracted from the dish. The dining room is small and cozy (downstairs was closed) and this makes for a nice ambiance for a date over tea or coffee, but skip the food. View all feedback.

Delicious comfort food with an Asian twist, a fantastic variety of teas, and you won't find better salted oat cookies anywhere.
