Disappointing. Do not recommend. After we got our tea no one checked on us again! We had to flag someone down after literally 40 minutes to ask for more water for our tea. Asked three times after that for more cream for the tea. Many of the tea items were lacking flavor. The ambiance is lacking as well. Feels like you are in the hotel lobby. Overall wish we had gone somewhere else.

It deserves a 5 stars but I only gave 4 due to the fact that when you use the tip % suggestions at the payment terminal, it applies the % on the amount after tax, which is illegal in Québec since may 2025. I called the day after and left a message to the person responsible for the restaurants at the Ritz but never got a call-back. While it is no big deal, it is a bit disappointing that such a prestigious institution would not comply with the law.

Extremely nice experience. Two of my guests are gluten-intolerant and they were very impressed with the gluten-free option. It would have been nice to have some music in the background, like very low classical music. During our time there, a wedding party started to arrive and their photographer was taking pictures in the Palm Court area.... it was very pretty to see except for when we felt we were in the way.... we'd like to thank the gentleman that asked the photographer if they could take pictures quickly as the Tea guests (us and others), were having our own 'experience'. I've been here multiple times and have always had a wonderful time.

Enjoyed our anniversary treat. The petit fours were delicious. The service was outstanding. cons: 1) there was a conference at the top of the stairs that finished up while we're still there. The crowd was going through the tea service area and it just took away from the ambiance 2) we were initially told that parking was validated with the service. The lady at the front desk still tried to charge us $35 stating that validation was only for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It didn't make any sense at all that afternoon tea wouldn't be covered. 3) Definitely one of the pricier afternoon teas I've been to. But it was worth the try.

Excellent plateau de sandwiches, de pâtisseries et de scones. Un choix de boissons alcoolisées et de thé est offert. La nourriture était exceptionnelle. Le service a été impeccable. Toutefois, nous étions près de l'entrée de l'hôtel, ce qui était un peu bruyant. La banquette était située un peu trop loin de la table, ce n'était pas vraiment confortable.

Such a great experience! I went for tea time with a few friends for my birthday and it did not disappoint! The service was super great and I really appreciated how they took the time to explain everything. The food was amazing and even though the portions are small we were all full by the end of it:)

Food was excellent, incredible craft, creative, so tasty. Scones the best I’ve ever had. Tea service seemed to be an afterthought. They had a lovely menu, but service was tea bags (not loose leaf), no steeping instructions, no consideration of water temp, and nowhere to place your tea bag after done steeping. For a high tea would love a bit more focus on the art of tea. .
