   Full/high tea with soup and salad was almost too much food. Everything was delicious. Perfect for a small celebration.

   Booked a tea experience at Lily's & Elise to make up for a missed tea event on a Cruise in December. What we got was beyond our expectations in every way! The staff was wonderful (esp. Crystal), the food was spectacular in presentation, taste, and portion size, and the property was in tip top shape, including the rest rooms! My wife and I went for afternoon tea which some might think would be a few things to "nibble". It was essentially a lunch for two (with a raft of exotic teas) and a dessert tray to rivaled most of those I've seen in this vicinity. We'll be going back soon ... especially now that we've found out they have a robust menu including breakfast, brunch, tea, and "patisserie" ( read French pastries). Based on our conversation with Anna, the manager, the concept for the operation came from an establishment in NIce, France. We'll be in Nice this spring and we are sure it will bring back memories for us of Lily's & Elise on Livernois!

   My friend and I went for high tea. The food was excellent. There wasn’t anything I ate that I didn’t enjoy. My favorites were the tuna sandwich, potatoes and leek soup and the cannoli. The interior design was extremely cute and girlie. It felt like a special club for women only. Our only criticism was that the service was a bit slow. The restaurant was slammed so we understood and didn’t mind the wait on food, but were disappointed that we had to wait an hour for a second pot of tea. Our final pot we ended up taking to go. I would definitely go back! Such a fun cute place.

   The space is beautiful, and I love the concept. For the price point of the brunch, the quality of food needed a little elevation. Overall service was fine, but there were some lapses in service and based on how many people were present and the establishment was closed for walk-ins, the lapses did not seem justified. However, one team member stood out a lot to my party. Ebiyemi was very kind and personable. She was very prompt in her service. This establishment has a lot of potential.
