    A must do before they close. Ask for Porfirio as your server, he made the whole experience. A consumate professional, knowledgeable about the menu, champagne pairings & The Plaza, he made my daughter's birthday tea a wonderful experience.

    Outstanding service all night. They were able to accommodate a big group, and the food and service was terrific and prices very reasonable for NYC. Great place for a high quality but casual dinner with friends or a group. Would definitely go again.
