Our server came to us provided us with water and took our chose of drinks and explained certain dishes we had questions on, we ordered and appetizer came to our table at a reasonable time, we then ordered our entrees and food also came out at a reasonable time, our food was fresh and tasty. Took a walk inside this place is a gem, if your looking for a nice night out this is a place you should definitely try, looking forward on doing brunch one weekend.

    I love this little gem! The food and service is wonderful. The only improvement would be location, but I truly don’t mind it. The ambiance reminds me off great little restaurants you might stumble upon in Paris or parts of Italy.

    We had afternoon tea at Honey Fitz at the Four Seasons on Sunday 10/6. It is a cute small cafe to inside the Four Seasons first floor. It was quiet and cute. The tea was fabulous (and unlimited - a rarity). And you could try multiple teas. Our waitress (she was fabulous) was attentive and wonderful. She even warmed the milk for the tea (another rarity). The sandwiches and the pastries were good. If I could be nitpick to make the tea even better - the scone was too sweet (maybe eliminate the icing) and serve it with clotted cream. The cucumber sandwich had way too much cream cheese and the macron was dunked in white chocolate (half way) which made it too sweet. If you improved these few items, the afternoon tea would be even better than it was - which was pretty wonderful! Thanks Honey Fitz!
