衛屋茶事 Sputnik Lab

A bit expensive but it's a good place to relax and enjoy the atmosphere. Don't miss the alley of the front door it's easy to miss

Horrible service When I asked for more detail about the menu, The waiter rolled eyes in front of me. So we decided to leave immediately. Stop pretending the Japanese way, you are ruining their culture.

Great tea, great desserts in a very special old house. Bring you back to the old time of Tainan city. Almost feel like in Japan.

A very Japanese style cafe, worth coming!

Beautiful garden and well maintained tea house. The food price is rather high.

Very cute japanase-style tea house. Had a matcha latte there, was delicious. I love the interior, very stylish. The owner is very nice as well. Highly recommend.

Very nice place for tea

The exterior environment and interior decor demonstrated traditional Japanese vibe, where it utilized old Japanese building and yard on the spot. These were nice, but that's the only advantage. Other than that, there were many disadvantages require further improvement. - The water in thermos for hojicha can only be considered warm, not even hot, which was not desirable for traditional tea drinks. The hojicha itself was not of great quality and tasted much bitter and less fragrant than expected. - The waiter usually walked between the guest tables to serve stuff, instead of walking from the empty side, which we have never seen any waiter/server did in Japan. It's impolite and may consider disturbing. - In this kind of tatami-based place, servers/waiters should be careful about their footsteps. If they do not tread lightly walking on tatami, they will cause continuous disturbance and noise to the surrounding diners. This was also rarely seen in Japan. - Most of the items on the menu, including savory ones and some of wagashi were sold out, even just two hours after opening and five hours left until closing. Inventory control and adjustment are required. - The texture of agar jelly was not right, perhaps too much agar were used in the process of making the jelly, creating uncomfortable tasting experience. The flavor was also not dominant enough to showcase the major ingredient, like brown sugar, which was pity. As price suggests, this is not a place for cheap stuff, so we expect better wagashi and drinks. We came here to see if we can somehow relive certain moments we had in Japan, but it seems that there are still so much to improve.
