This was a one of a kind experience- special shout out to Emily, Shelsy, and Elvis. My father wanted to do afternoon tea for his birthday and the Plaza really delivered, from the birthday sash to special cake to even accommodating us a little earlier than our scheduled reservation. We are very grateful for a wonderful day! Also - the vegan tea service was delicious and super special, so thankful that they put some thought and heart into the food (sweets AND savories) instead of just doing avocado toast and berries or something

Always a pleasure! From the moment you enter Little Owl, a wonderful evening begins with a warm and sincere greeting. The menu isn’t huge but has such variety that you’ll have a difficult time choosing. It’s Dry January but fear not - a sophisticated list of mocktails are on offer. The room is cozy and romantic yet casual and welcoming. Neighbourhood-y in the very best way. Service is attentive - not too much yet not too little. A fave for us every time we are in NYC.
