    Food was awful. For as expensive as they charge you would think they have better food. Definitely felt like a scam. Very disappointed in my experience. Service was also slow and not attentive. Again, you would think it would be better. Would not recommend, only go for drinks

    The ambiance was very nice. The service was great. The food was very overrated and overpriced. The small sampling of finger foods was presented nicely but the taste was less than adequate. The cost was $95 per person… worth $15 per person at best. Drinks were very expensive but very good. Good experience is you want to visit The Plaza Hotel and be seen; however, we rate this experience as a Three Star at best.

    We had the most amazing day! Fariz our waiter could not have been more attentive; he made our day so memorable. Treated like princesses - if you want to make one very special memory to treasure then afternoon tea at the Plaza should be it

    Beautiful setting and exceptional service. Didn’t like the taste of most of the sweets, but the scones were delicious. Keep in mind, you are paying for where it is. It is definitely not high in terms of the best tea.

    We paid For 2 people 393,33$ taxes & tips. I didn’t like the food at all, nothing special for what I paid I love the place it was beautiful but if I knew that I have to pay 155$ minimum per person I would never have gone. I’m sorry but it’s NOT WORTH IT especially the food.
