HOLLAND TEA ROOM, 157 East Ontario Street

We don't know why this place is called the Holland Tea Room, since no Dutch dishes are served here. The menu is a regular American tea room menu. Although disappointed in not finding any Dutch dishes, we were not disappointed in the quality of the cooking. Open for luncheon and dinner. This place has a good-sized clientele and is one of the better places east of the Avenue. Delaware 3810.
