This was an experience of a foodgasm that I didn't know existed. I now can understand why Tamron Hall said she cried! I honestly thought she was being overly dramatic, but I was sorely mistaken! The story behind each dish was just amazing to hear and the freshness of the ingredients for every dish was incomparable. Even the explosion of the lotus flower bomb in your mouth was something to behold. The decor absolutely sets the stage and tells the story of the food being served. I can't wait to come back; and to be able to share this experience with family whom dare I say would have never tried this unless I brought this to them and for them to enjoy it just as much as I did, I will never forget this experience and will most definitely be back! It's worth every single penny and more! Bravo to the owners and creators of this awesome establishment. GO BIRDS, DH!!!

We had a great time at Akwaaba Tea Salon. The food was fabulous and the service was impeccable. It was like we were having tea in the hostesses’ home! While there were numerous teas to choose from we all had the tea recommended by our hostess, great choice. In addition to great food and service the conversation were entertaining and we were given recommendations of where to eat and places o visit. Can’t wait to go back!

    This was my first time back since Vespers had undergone new Ownership/ Management and I must say I had an absolute great time. The service was great, the bartender is an absolute doll and the owner introduced himself to me and was very pleasant and welcoming. I’ve had many birthday experiences here but this one in 2025 was the best so far. I will definitely be back and I recommend anyone who desires a great “Turnt up”party brunch to book now.

    I have been here several times and each time it only gets better. I know the menu and everything I have ordered has been spectacular. The servers are very nice and super patient. The food is so good. It is wholesome yet appetizing. I highly recommend this spot.
