The service was wonderful. It made for a fun experience. The sandwiches could have been a little healthier on the Eloise tower. Too much sugar!!

Truly magical! Staff was great. Food was great. We did the Eloise tea and the City tea both exceeded expectation.

It made the best memory for my daughter's 18th birthday. Something she's always wanted to do.

The tip was included for two people and our service was terrible. The waitress could care less if if she took our order or checked on our food or picked up our check. The food was underwhelming. They served three crackers with a charcuterie board. Charging $12 for additional crackers.  The sliders were the size of quarters. My cocktail tasted terrible. I was expecting good service and good food at the Plaza hotel and was extremely disappointed in both. We did see other people receiving good service, so not sure if they distinguish between hotel guests and just people making reservations for dinner alone.

The vegan afternoon tea was simply divine and such a lovely treat for vegans! We celebrated a milestone birthday and the birthday girl loved it! Would have loved more savory options though. But can't complain when having a vegan high tea is already such a privilege!

Great experience. My 7 year old granddaughter's first trip to NYC. Our waiter, Fariz was fabulous! The food and ambience was fantastic. Thanks The Plaza for an amazing experience.

I took my daughter for her first high tea experience to the Plaza, which is stunning. The table and settings in the Palm Court are so pretty.The mirrored tables are poorly scratched. The flavors of tea were fantastic. But, packaged sugar in a silver server? Boo. The tea experience would have been worth it, if the food was better. Servings included 2 small scones, 4 small tea sandwiches and 5 mini desserts, each. The scones were mediocre. There was a savory Foie Gras Mousse with Truffle Aioli that was way too overpowering. Great concept, poor taste. Of the desserts, the mango passion fruit compote was so sour, there was some puckering from the tartness. Earl Grey cheesecake, blah. The other desserts, were ok. But just ok. Sometimes, simple is just better. This tea is minimum of $125 pp. The total with tax/gratuity was over $300. It is absolutely not worth it. Do better Plaza. The quality and taste of your high tea food should match this iconic destinations reputation.

We booked High Tea at The Palm as a special treat for ourselves; the website shows the menu choices and the price, so we knew what we were getting. Everything was wonderful - service, ambience, food. It's certainly overpriced. But it was a nice New York experience.

I would like to thank everyone from the chef, food management and the wait staff for the excellent service. To the chef who creating an outstanding menu for my wife's dietary needs. It truly made her a rememberable Birthday. Cheers to all

Beautiful place, but that's it. Not the best service or taste. Tourist place, nice to go one time only to take pictures. Won't be coming back.

Melange Du Cap or chai with cream and honey was amazing. Khalid is a mastermind with the tea. Lovely time.

Was racially profiled at the door they didn't believe I had a reservation based off the way I looked. After back and forth they finally sat us down and the server was rude and started to give the rest of my family attitude. We ended up leaving because of this and would not recommend this place. Ive dined at 5 start restaurants all over the world and this is by far the worst experience stay away.
