    It is a lovely experience. You feel like royalty. Attentive service, tasty, lovely presentation. We ordered the low price choice on the menu. It was lovely and exactly what you would expect for a tea service.

    The service was wonderful. It made for a fun experience. The sandwiches could have been a little healthier on the Eloise tower. Too much sugar!!

    It made the best memory for my daughter’s 18th birthday. Something she’s always wanted to do.

    This was a perfect high tea! The staff made it comfortable and easy to enjoy. (They were not snooty in any way.) Also, they were able to store our luggage during the meal.

    Elvis, our waiter was absolutely amazing. Tea was lovely. Beautiful everything. Very happy with the gluten free option, although it would be even better if the gluten free wasn't also the vegetarian option. Would still definitely go again.

    The tip was included for two people and our service was terrible. The waitress could care less if if she took our order or checked on our food or picked up our check. The food was underwhelming. They served three crackers with a charcuterie board. Charging $12 for additional crackers.  The sliders were the size of quarters. My cocktail tasted terrible. I was expecting good service and good food at the Plaza hotel and was extremely disappointed in both. We did see other people receiving good service, so not sure if they distinguish between hotel guests and just people making reservations for dinner alone.
