The afternoon tea was to die for! It was such an elegant experience, especially on a rainy Miami day afternoon. The scenery in itself was beyond spectacular - the hotel is beautiful, the two bird aviaries were gorgeous and fun to look at, and the grounds are just beautiful. Back to the tea- I went with my sister in law and it was her first experience doing a high tea. She loved it! The food was crafted and served with the upmost care, the teas offered were selected with care and our waiters were all very knowledgeable and passionate about steering us to the best flavor for both of us. My favorite tea was “the louvre” - it was just a lovely tea that could be enjoyed across many seasons. They also had a harpist who played a range of songs that applied to the many generations in the room. My favorite was the “City of Stars” from LaLa Land. Just delightful. Don’t miss this opportunity in Mimi with your friends and loved ones.

I'm so glad its gone back to the classical high tea instead of the cuban fusion that once was. The scones were superb as was the mango tart. I would add another scone,though, and maybe less sweets. The quality of the chocolate cake does not belong at the Biltmore. I really enjoyed the finger sandwiches, as always and the staff made it a delightful experience. Thank you!

Afternoon Tea at The Biltmore Hotel was wonderful. I treated my mom for her birthday to this experience. We’ve been meaning to make it happen for a while now, and I’m glad we were finally able to experience it this past Friday, 09/01. The food tasted so yummy. Our server Nestor was very nice and is a great singer!! Our other waiter was very nice, too (I can’t recall his name at the moment but he was very serviceable.) There was a female harpist that plays the harp while you dine. She played beautifully. Everyone we encountered there was very nice and willing to serve with utmost care. We definitely will be back again, and recommend 10/10 Afternoon Tea at The Biltmore Hotel.

The food, ambiance and service was superb. Since the moment we walked in Nestor was "ready" for us. He greeted us and knew we did not consume pork products. Nestor and Michael were attentive, professional, warm, welcoming, and attended to details throughout the entire experience. Katherine played the harp harmoniously and even guessed my husband's favorite song. The food was fresh, delicious and presented beautifully. Nestor, Michael and Katherine made our experience a fantastic one. We will be back for another special occasion!

Fabulous service from Nestor and his support staff. Delicious food displayed beautifully. A special treat for my granddaughter going away to college. She was thrilled! I alerted the staff when my reservation was made about granddaughter’s food allergies. Kitchen accommodated for them. It was a wonderful afternoon. A great memory. Thank you. Nancy

From the lovely harpist to the exquisite service provided by our servers, everything was perfect! One of our guests was gluten-free, and they never felt second best: the scones and sandwiches, all gluten-free, were delicious and served on separate tiered trays. The tea selection is diverse and high quality. The setting itself is magnificent -- be sure to come early or leave time after to stroll the hotel and grounds. All in all, the Biltmore provided the perfect afternoon tea experience!

We really had a lovely time. There were a lot of extra taxes added on and we paid extra for the champagne and strawberries. I did not receive the strawberry soaked in Grand Marnier? The harp player was lovely and made the tea even more delightful.

This review is strictly for the high tea at the hotel. We have never been to this hotel before but its simply stunning. Just breathtaking which is why I’ve taken so many pics. When we entered the hotel we were warmly greeted by Nestor who took care of every single detail and spoiled my little 9 yr old daughter. He was so professional. They have an adult and a child’s tea and it did not disappoint it’s a great value. So many wonderful choices for sandwiches and since I called ahead they were very accommodating to our allergies. All the food was served on beautiful villeroy and boch china just gorgeous. They had a wonderful harpist who was so sweet and played my daughters fav tunes. Micheal the other server was equally as welcoming. There is more food than I care to mention but the highlights were the foie gras amuse bouche with gold leaf. The roast beef sandwich, smoked salmon, ham and cheese wrap and curried chicken toast. The scones were filled with cranberries and orange essence we enjoyed the marmalade, lemon curd and cream. There were so many teas to choose from I chose Nestor’s suggestion of imperial chai so fragrant with ginger I loved it. My daughter is too young to sip tea so he brought her a pot of hot cocoa which was greatly appreciated. The child’s tea came with great sandwiches for children that were all cut to look like flowers. Her favorite was the cheese, and turkey. For desserts mine were more adult I enjoyed the key lime pie, red velvet and the macaroon my daughter loved the cake, brownies and Nestor even brought her an m and m cookies as an extra treat. I’ve done high tea all over the world( as you can see by my other reviews) and all over the us I have to say that this was one of the best ones I have ever experienced including in London. This is not to be missed I’m looking forward to trying the holiday tea next
