    The price of the tea was rediculous! $155 for a few sandwiches and tea is the worst. Then they add their own service charge. Very misleading to our entire party. Over $900 for four of us. The experience was nice but totally not worth that price! Disappointed!

    Very expensive for what you get. Service was impeccable as you would expect from the Plaza but at the price you pay (£160 pp) I was disappointed, a very expensive experience. Not something I would rush back for or recommend.

    Continues to have service in a beautiful location. But the bar has added too much noise to the space. Difficult to enjoy the ambiance with espresso martinis yelling from the center of the room. The Plaza Tea has lost its charm.

    The experience was delightful, but for close to $200 per person, not worth it.

    I WOULDNT BOTHER ..... It is really disappointing when you book for a nice meal, to be told on arrival it is an afternoon tea at 830pm at 95 dollars each plus tax. If i wanted afternoon tea, i would have booked for 230pm The food was less than average, waygu burger was undercooked. So disappointing and the service was poor
