More food in general would make the price per person worth it. There is an Asian twist to the “high tea” which is fine, but if you are going to serve a scone then clotted cream must accompany it. The scone was dry. The sweet desserts to savory should be more balanced. We had sugar overload. But I gave it an overall good experience because we were seated in a comfortable private area and the teas were delicious and most of the desserts were good. Also, there is an automatic 18% gratuity for a my party of two. We had to wait a long time for the tea and food and also we had to walk the check up to pay because our server infrequently checked on us.

Excellent service. Excellent tea choices. Mediocre food. My daughter and I have been hopping everywhere for High Afternoon Teas, With this one, i must say that it’s overpriced. But, Kudos to the chef for a great tower presentation.

The food was mediocre at best and tea required you to take your cup to the center table and refill it with water (rather than have a pot of tea by you). At over $80 per person, one would think they did some research into how afternoon teas are served. The host and servers (there were only two for all the tables) were very nice people and friendly; only silver lining. I’m actually shocked by how terrible it was and how it can even be associated with the Le Meridien name. Came for Mothers Day and was absolute disappointment.

However, the food was delicious, and our server, Adrianne, was outstanding. We definitely plan to return!

No full silverware setup, no bread offering, I ordered mashed potatos and they were never delivered, Brussels Sprouts were burnt, fat not trimmed from rib-eye steak. The web-site was very poor in information about menu.
