About this business

Tea is back in fashion and Sanctuary T cleverly plays on this, offering everything from matcha (green tea) infused cocktails to the fragrant Earl Grey martini. And if you're hungry, there's an award-winning menu featuring only the freshest of ingredients.

WOW!!! Those cocktails! – What a refreshing (pun intended) way to present tea in cocktails! If you ever wanted to try excellent, inventive drinks, this is THE place to go. Nothing remotely close to the sweet pre-mixes used here, only fresh ingredients crafted by a very knowledgeable bar master. It is like watching a chef in an open kitchen. The Coral Reef is an exotic blend of tangerine tea, tequila, cointreau and passion fruit, served in a pink peppercorn rimmed glass. If green tea is your thing try the Rise and Shine, with... read more

Nice food, fantastic tea selection BUT SIGNIFICANT KITCHEN AND MANAGERIAL ISSUES – The Good: Interesting and well presented food in a nice space. Expansive tea selection. The Bad: Inexperienced,but honest, wait staff. Manager / supervisor who appears to have little or no front of house experience and more worrying does not appear to have the temperament to fulfill such a role. The Ugly: 4 hours for a two course dinner (at which point considering desert would just have been irresponsible!). After lengthy waits to receive our ... read more

Great place to just relax – I visited this lovely, quaint place with a friend, and it left such a wonderful impression upon me. Our waiter was as cordial and helpful as can be. He did not bother us, at all, unless we wanted something. If you need a place to sit and talk for over 2 hours, stop looking and get there. The tea tasted magnificent, and trust me, I've drank it my whole life. But, what I must confess tasted best was the Forelle Pear, blanched in Cognac, with bleu cheese, whip cream and walnuts. Best $9 I ever spent!

Tea seeps into just about everything, including dinner, at this tasty cafe-restaurant in Soho. – The Scene This tea salon in Soho conjures the serenity of an Asian spa, with light pouring through floor-to-ceiling windows and morning patrons restoring Zen over granola and some 50 specialty blends. Come evening, votives and a global beats soundtrack mingle with the fragrance of stovetop-spiced wine inside the sliver of a dining room. The Food Chef Kevin Stanton, who's also worked at Bouley, conceived the tapas-style evening me... read more

Great food, smashing cocktails, looks great and won't break the piggy bank. – After reading the great review in Time Out about this restaurant I had to try it out with my girlfriend. The cocktails were delicious, inventive and innovative. The mulled wine was a real winner, perfect for the cold weather. They bring out a dish of the most delicious oil fused with smoked tea to dip your bread into that is far superior to any comporable opening act I've been presented at a restaurant of this price point. The lamb chop was among t... read more

Fantastic cocktails and an awesome ambiance – As the holidays approach, I've put myself on a strict budget, which makes me really picky about places I'm willing to spend money at to eat, and I'm really glad I chose Sanctuary T as my monthly restaurant choice. The restaurant is quite possibly one of the most comfortable spots I've dined in. The vibe is relaxed and inviting and the food compliments that feeling, offering dishes that are classic and pretty healthy, with some cool, authentic twists. It seems like the restaurant ... read more

My new fav. spot in Soho – I had lunch at Sanctuary few days ago with two of my girlfriends and I am trully happy that they opened this place in Soho. It's very warm and cozy, servers are very attentive and friendly and food is just perfect. Tea selection seems to be wide but for someone like me who is a coffee person they have great lattes as well. I am looking forward to take my boyfriend for dinner next week and to try some cool tea cocktails... they all sound delicious.

great date place, food is competitive with any 5-star restaurant, reasonably priced for the neighborhood. – I live in the neighborhood and recently discovered this place. It is such a gem. First of all the food is outstanding and is not expensive for the neighborhood (especially considering that it is actually five-star material, which is another story). Second the atmosphere and the servers make you feel like you've come to a good friend's (beautiful) home. I don't even like tea and i appreciated that though it was the "the... read more

Refreshing newcomer, more than a tea shop – You wouldn't expect a tea shop to offer an interesting and tasty food menu, but they do! The cuisine is light yet very satisfying, and the tea based menu offers something different. The tea infused cocktails are also excellent. I haven't shopped from their retail section yet but I did notice a few items perfect as Christmas gifts. A very welcome addition to the neighborhood that has otherwise become rather boring in the food (and tea) scene.
