    Limited menu, as expected, but meal took 2+ hours with one adult and one child. We had to remind the server many times of things we had already asked for. She needed help and had too many tables. Limited cocktail menu and dinner items.

    Not overly impressed to be honest Very expensive and wasn’t worth what we paid. Could have found better for cheaper elsewhere no doubt. Service …. Considering it was the famous plaza and the service was as average as anywhere you would get. Ambience was very. Beautifully decorated and lit. From this experience it seems the name carries it in terms of booking getting bookings and price justification

    Kazi was an outstanding waiter and brought the experience to life. Our daughter turned 14 and felt so special and celebrated. The staff was thoughtful and welcoming

    Over $400 for an hours food experience, some (although not all) staff were not friendly (would not let me use the restroom) and overall is nowhere near the standard of The Savoy in London.

    While beautiful, there were several things that left me disappointed with the Plaza, it was very overpriced for what you got. The dress code was not adheared to by many of the patrons which was sad. What had intended on being a special meal with my husband to celebrate our trip was an ok meal surrounded by scruffy people. We had better priced, better dressed and better food at Sarabeth’s just down the road when we had lunch. Will not be returning, don’t waste your money
