"A pause in the afternoon for a cup of tea is standard in many parts of the world, but drinking anything other than an iced beverage in LA is almost an anomaly. Rose & Blanc Tea Room is an exception, bringing a dose of international tea culture to Koreatown in a hyperfeminine blush-and-white setting. The tea menu is legit—French Palais des Thés, American Harney & Sons, as well as Rose & Blanc’s own blends (the Earl Grey rooibos is our favorite). Its version of afternoon tea runs more on the sweet side than the cucumber-sandwich side—imagine delicate macaroons, scones, and waffles with lavender syrup."

Stepping into Rose & Blanc Tea Room feels like entering a quaint, intimate tea room with a lovely feminine touch. The soft pink walls and elegant decor set the perfect mood for afternoon tea. It was heartwarming to see so many enjoying high tea, complete with yummy and delicate treats and fragrant brews. And to top it all off, the customer service was excellent! I took my sister here! We enjoyed the unique experience and definitely think it’s something all the girlypops should try at least once! food/drink: • violette tea set: egg & basil pesto tea sandwich, cucumber & dill tea sandwich, smoked salmon & truffle aioli tea sandwich, pastrami ham & mustard tea sandwich, classic scone with jam & devonshire cream, 4 seasonal desserts - everything was yummy and so aesthetic • matcha lavendar iced milk tea - this is the strongest lavendar taste we’ve ever had, super impressed! • grand jasmine tea - light and floral! sugar cubes on the side to add sweetness

We arrived to find the Room closed, however one sweet lady walked out to let is know that they would be opening at 3pm, we had no reservation but we were super friendly welcomed and served the most delicious tea and sandwiches.

The place is a lot tinier than I expected but it got crowded very quickly on a Saturday afternoon. My tea was tasty and I liked the snacks- although some of their sandwiches were okay.

Small, cute, and affordable afternoon tea spot near ktown! We made a reservation for Sunday at 3pm for the rose tea set. I was also able to request a vegetarian tea set ahead of time, which meant that my friend got an extra egg sandwich to replace the salmon sandwich. The tea is located on the 2nd level of a business center and has a small free underground parking garage. We arrived 20 minutes before our reservation and luckily didn't have an issue finding a parking spot. The tea comes in a three tier tray with 3 types of sandwiches (egg, cucumber, and salmon), a scone with jam and cream, a cream filled madeline, macaron, and a cup of fruit. They also had a fairly wide selection of teas, including herbal and decaf. I went with Paris for Her, good though not as flavorful as I was hoping, and my friend selected Big Ben. The egg sandwich and scone were my favorites of the bunch. I wasn't as impressed with the desserts. Both madelines were burned and I was not a fan of the macaron, whose filling had the texture of a lemon bar.

Very cute venue that offers high-quality teas and a cute experience, especially if you like sweet pastries. But it wouldn't be my recommendation, I don't really think it's worth it. A lot of the food was too sweet for me to finish and there is no alcohol served, where I think a glass of bubbly or creative cocktails would make for a better experience. Also make sure to go early. They are VERY strict about serving times, which is their right but comes across as bad customer service if you ask me. We were running late so called ahead and were told it was fine as long as we came before serving ended. But when we showed up it was a completely different story and we were told to go away and come back at the next sitting. True we were late but it seemed like bad service to turn us away. They were courteous and professional when we came back but overall I think other high tea places give a better experience.

Really nice tea experience for a gal meeting, mom and daughter time, or date!

Adorable venue, but very small. Polite staff, but I felt that we sat with dirty dishes in front of us for far longer than is acceptable. I felt they should have stopped by to ask if we were finished and cleared our dirty dishes away *much* sooner than they did.

Ordered the special tea set for two with the waffle add-on (+$4) as recommended by other reviewers. Went on a weekday, no time limit and was pretty empty after 3pm - many other customers were walk-ins. Honestly a hidden gem. Pricy, but cheaper than some other high tea places. Food: Liked the sandwiches and biscuits the most, egg sandwich was the best. Waffle was okay, only get it if you like lavender, because without the syrup to dip in, it's just plain. I think the only bad thing was that the macarons tasted slightly stale. The amount of food is good; if we hadn't gotten the waffles, we still would've taken home some leftovers. For tea, I got Paris for Her even though I don't like raspberries, and it was still delicious (lychee flavor was stronger). Service: Attentive and not pushy at all (contrary to what other reviewers were saying, though I went when there was no time limit).
