This is a no for me. Food is sub par. Sandwiches are mediocre - the truffle chicken salad has such an overwhelming amount of truffle it’s hard to eat, egg salad is bland, bread for the ham sammie was rock hard. Scones are super dry. Desserts are fine - unremarkable. Service was fine. View of the park from a window seat is lovely.

first sat at a really poor table despite a reservation for a couple of weeks and a request. Before ordering another hostess randomly (we did not complain) stopped by and asked if we would like to move to a different table by the window. Not sure why we were in the main traffic flow to begin with and at a table that was very exposed.

I took my sister for the afternoon tea to celebrate her 40th birthday. We had mentioned we were vegetarians. The food was not good at all. I have been to many places around the world for afternoon tea; this was the worst experience. The food was so disappointing. All they had for vegetarians was deviled eggs, egg sandwiches along small medallions of open cucumber and cream cheese bites. The deserts were stale and not good at all. Again, going and experiencing high tea at the London Ritz and seeing how well they do it, BG was such a bad experience. Also, BG did not offer refills. I was most disappointed in the quality and choice of the food. Not going back and will not recommend it to anyone.

Always love BG. This visit was to celebrate my birthday, so treated myself to the lobster salad for the first time and it was outstanding. Our waiter provided the best service I've had just about anywhere...service is an art and the young man who waited on us has perfected it! My only regret was not getting his name, I would ask to be at his station in a heartbeat. Lovely lunch!

I’ve been eating at BG for 40 years. Both in what was the Cafe on 5 and then when it moved to the Cosmetics floor and always on the 7th floor. My go to dish is usually the Gotham salad. I actually was the one in the 80’s who asked the restaurant to chop the salad which they used to serve in chopped. But the restaurant on 7 should bring back the choices of bread they used to have And it should be dog friendly

Absolutely beautiful! The place is spectacular! I did the tea lunch before going to a broadway show. I enjoyed every minute of this experience. The service was excellent from the Hosts to the server. The view of Central Park was like a dream. The room is just gorgeous. The server was attentive and friendly. The food and tea were excellent. I highly recommend and will be going back again soon.

Food For Thought- I always order the spinach with mushrooms. I don't like when the mushrooms over flowed on top of my spinach. I was really disappointed, I hope this does not happen to me again in the future. Overall, I definitely enjoyed the jumbo shrimp cocktail and the vodka and cranberry juice. Shoutout to my waitress Corrina...she is the BEST!

Love the restaurant @bergies. The food is usually amazing. This time I ordered one of the dishes I usually order--deviled eggs--hard to mess those up and yet they did. It tasted incredibly bland. I also ordered the roasted chicken. It was undercooked. They must have changed chefs?! So I was surprised and disappointed. The coffee was great. I will go back again and maybe try something different next time.
