"On the ground floor of the Downtown L.A. Proper Hotel, this space is a moody, intimate cocktail spot in the evening that transforms by day into a tranquil oasis offering some of the best afternoon tea service in town; the format hews closely to tradition but the execution by chef Suzanne Goin, beverage expert Caroline Styne, and their teams feels refreshingly contemporary. I’d start with a cocktail if time allows, then move into freshly brewed teas (the herbal ginger yuzu is a solid caffeine-free option), and linger over the delicate sandwiches, pastries, and scones presented on tiered towers while Downtown’s bustle whirs softly in the background." - Eater Staff
