    Absolutely gorgeous room for dining! The food was delicious, looked wonderful in its presentation and provided an experience for my cousins and me that will be a memory forever. I was under the assumption that the tea was included in the pricing for the high tea, so imagine my surprise when I was charged $65 per pot of tea. That was unexpected.

    Ambiance is very luxurious , as guests will know. We ordered two teas. We ended up, without asking, paying $393 for two teas and some little sweets and fingerfood that appeared unprompted on a stand. Be very careful with the menu. They do not ask if you would like food, it appears as little finger food. Prices are not listed by the tea and are hard to find, and do not correspond to what you will order.

    Very expensive for what you get. Service was impeccable as you would expect from the Plaza but at the price you pay (£160 pp) I was disappointed, a very expensive experience. Not something I would rush back for or recommend.

    The price of the tea was rediculous! $155 for a few sandwiches and tea is the worst. Then they add their own service charge. Very misleading to our entire party. Over $900 for four of us. The experience was nice but totally not worth that price! Disappointed!

    Continues to have service in a beautiful location. But the bar has added too much noise to the space. Difficult to enjoy the ambiance with espresso martinis yelling from the center of the room. The Plaza Tea has lost its charm.
