Tea Room Review
      ......No, it's not a 'real' tea room... it's the legendary Pacific Dining Car! And they actually serve afternoon tea seven days a week. It's a fun little place for a tete a tete when in downtown LA. The tea food is quite nice, but if you're a carnivore, prepare to be tempted to stay for dinner as well as the steak dinners here are hard to beat... a great place for a co-ed tea or business meeting
