We visited Trump International after celebrating a graduation. We ate lunch at the Benjamin and it was excellent. We ordered the cheese platter and since they knew we were celebrating, they gave us a bottle of Trump champagne at no charge. What service! The food was delicious and the service amazing. We will definitely return. Trump International is top notch!! Thanks for making our special occasion so memorable.

This place is gorgeous! We ordered Shrimp with Saffron Risotto and it was perfection. The hospitality and drinks were exemplary.

My first time was tonight, Muna was our waitress she barley came to our table then charged us wrong she charged me for one drink when I ordered two...so she doesn't know how to count. Then she demanded a tip afterwards! Everybody else was nice specially the men outside that help with cars.

We had dinner and drinks here. It was the most incredible dinner ever. The people watching was mesmerizing as were the food and drinks. It was not that expensive.

We had a very late lunch in BLT Prime restaurant but came down for some wine and dessert about 6pm. Stayed for several hours, reading our Kindles, enjoying a bottle of Pinot Grigio and some phenomenal cheesecake! The ambience is unbelievable in this place and the lighting at night is spectacular! The gorgeous chandelier refracts the light beautifully and the bottles in the top half if the oversized bar are all clear. It’s simply stunning. I especially loved the gigantic (Trump would say “huge”) American flag hanging high overhead! Go visit, have some drinks and enjoy the high quality service and atmosphere!

My wife and I had an amazing experience after popping in for dessert. We split a double chocolate cake, which was HUGE and phenomenal; well worth the cost! Theo, one of our servers, was very attentive, friendly and sophisticated. He went above and beyond to ensure that we had the best experience possible. Highly recommend!

Thank you for taking time to let us know that you enjoyed Dessert Night. While it is on a temporary hiatus, Dessert Night will be returning in the future and we look forward to welcoming you back.

The tea was absolutely lovely! Really enjoyed the whole experience. Every bite was truly an exquisite surprise! I really cannot say which bite was the best. They were all so distinct and delicious! Yakuba was delightful and was kind to get me another scone when I dropped mine on the floor. oops! Jean Marc did a great job assisting and took some nice photos for us. It was a beautiful afternoon tea at The Trump Hotel. Thank you.

A family friend treated us to tea today at the Trump Hotel. Having been there before, I had high expectations. It was such a bad experience! First, I received my pot of tea way before anyone else did....then they brought the other ladies the wrong tea. Not until several minutes later did the remainder of the tea show up. Then we noticed that the tea pot was chipped badly on the pour spout. Okay, off to a bad start but it only got worse from there. When the food was served the person who brought the trays could not describe what we had been served. We were busy chatting when our waitress came and mentioned that we had been served tea for 4 instead of 3. She then began to pick food off our trays to be brought back to the kitchen. Did that really happen in a high rated establishment? We had to ask for clotted cream and jam for the scones, spoons to use for serving, and it went on and on like this. This is not the type of experience that one expects at the Trump Hotel. I don't know if they were short staffed or just inexperienced. Needless to say, we will not be back for tea again. Better to stick with the Ritz Carlton, who runs circles around these people.
