Located in East Washington Street, Syracuse, Roji Tea Lounge is a much needed refuge from the hustle-bustle of New York's lifestyle. Though perched in Central New York, there is something calming and meditative about this place, which makes it a great spot to unwind after a stressful week's work or long day's journey. The floor mats, brick walls and bonsai in the corner, make the ambience a touch new-age-like, though there are comfortable sofas and tables available for those who prefer it that way.

As you meet the staff and experience the place first-hand, it's evident that this lounge has its roots in an undivided love for tea, its essence and its myriad therapeutic properties. There are a host of tea varieties available including green, black, white, oolong, fermented and herbal infusion, and the friendly staff will assist you with recommendations on request. This little tea spot is all about relaxation, meditation and the like, so don't be offended if the waiters don't come back and check on you after you're served. It's all a part of offering a non-intrusive quiet environment. Lip-smacking desserts are on the menu and Roji Tea Lounge is also the first certified green restaurant in Central New York. Sip your tea and find rest for your soul.
