    Went for tea for my birthday and it couldn’t have been more perfect. Laura went above and beyond to make the day extra special. Food and service was everything you’d expect it to be and more!

    Beautiful place. Was surprised they didn’t have a large ice rock for the bourbon.

    I'd say that this afternoon tea was of a comparable standard to those in the UK at the Ritz, Savoy, Goring and Corinthia. The sandwiches were very good and the 'White Cosmo" can be thoroughly recommended. Overall the service was excellent and would definitely do it again.

    At 25% fill the service was slower to get started than expected. Was seated between two loud groups, not very thoughtful about spacing us out given the room was mostly empty.

    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

    Elvis was a super sweet server - kind and attentive! In fact, all the staff were quite lovely. I love the huge kettles of tea, the champagne was perfectly chilled, and the food was fresh.

    Tea sandwiches were dry. For the price you pay the food should have been excellent. Very disappointed!
