Went there to celebrate my daughter's 16th birthday & experience our first tea service together. We had a green tea & black tea(do not remember the names but it was a matcha & heavenly…) & these were both good. I was disappointed because I had to request milk & when they brought it out it was cold. Who wants to cool down their tea… please warm it up on the future. Out of the 3 tiers, the scones were our favourite with the jams. The dessert was the worst, only appreciated 1 out of the tray & the sandwiches were ok. The atmosphere & decor were great. It's definitely something to experience tea time.
We went here to kick off our honeymoon, & it was a lovely experience for a special occasion. Service was phenomenal & attentive without rushing. The ambiance is also very nice, & everything feels upscale. I loved the scones & all the savory options. Desserts were also pretty good (I'm not as much of a dessert lover so I preferred the sandwiches). The tea cocktails were the highlight- both the chai espresso martini & jasmine mimosa were really unique & delicious. Most afternoon teas where I live are quite pricey so honestly this one was pretty affordable for the experience, I think, but I'm not familiar with local pricing.

My mom & I had a beautiful experience enjoying our afternoon Tea. The sandwiches were divine, the flavors were inventive, fresh & rich. My favorites were a roast beef sandwich with truffle, which was rich & creamy. & a cucumber & caviar boat. Which was fresh with a touch of creaminess. The pastries were delicious. Including a mousse that tasted like caramel popcorn. It was resting on a delicious & buttery pie dough. The scones were also delicious, & the spreads were on point, specially one with strawberry & rose. I loved their tea selection. Their options were fresh & very tasty. The servers were very kind & attentive. Services was well timed. & everyone explained everything to us very clearly when we mentioned it was our first time. It was a very nice experience! Loved the decor, including the huge painting of Artemis.
What can you say about a place that exceeds your expectation? The tea tasting is amazing. How can I feel full from those tiny sandwiches? It must be magic! Service is above n beyond friendly, courteous n attentive. I went to celebrate my birthday n it was sooo worth it. I read that it was expensive but when you convert to US dollars, it's very reasonable, I'm worth it! It's a joy to be alive & be able to experience it.
High tea at the ritz is a fun experience to do at least once. Our server was probably the most enthusiastic server I've ever had. The tea itself was exceptional. The presentation for the sandwiches & desserts was lovely & charming. We were not blown away by the quality of the food, but we very much enjoyed it & found portions generous. The decor itself had an element of old world charm & we were able to linger into the afternoon.
We went for afternoon tea today. Food was great, tea was good & decor & ambiance were amazing. The only disappointing part was the service... it took a while before they came & took our order. Then they waited until we were done sandwiches to bring the tea which I've never seen before. I went to afternoon teas all over Canada & Europe & I've never seen this before. Tea should be served even before the food. They offered a refill of hot water after we had finished all the food & were ready to pay.... Service was slow, I had to ask for them to bring out the tea & it took a while before they came to process our payment. Overall what they offer is great for the price point but they need to work on the service part.
Afternoon tea service: Excellent service, attentive & helpful. Nice decor. Scones were very scrumptious. Desserts were delicious especially the creative chocolate one. Finger sandwiches were a bit hit or miss though. The shrimp one was too heavy on the dill for example. Presentation was perfect overall.

Went to for the "tea experience" but can't say it was an "experience." Sandwiches were dry, & only scones were fresh & warm. Noisy & big "deal" with how long the tea should sit before serving but nowhere to place your tea bag when it got dark as coffee 😟. For 3ppl & 250$ later, I think we should have spent it better elsewhere!
Absolutely delightful. We went for. New Year's Eve afternoon tea. The staff, food & experience will stay with me for a long time. We had champagne, tea sandwiches, scrumptious pastries, & very nice tea. The decorations at the Ritz were incredible. It was very special indeed.
Afternoon Tea First off, the waiting staff was courteous. Service was really flawless & I felt very cared for. The greeting was a bit awkward as it was hard to signal someone that I was waiting to be greeted by a host/hostess. Everything was quite delicious. We chose the Jasmin Mimosa, which was a treat. The sandwiches were delicious. Apart for one of them (the one that was not cucumber or cajun chicken). It was oddly dry in texture. The desserts were refined & quite generous in flavor. We left quite stuffed. It might seem a bit steep in price for tea time, but the whole experience was a delight, especially if you are offering yourself an experience for a special occasion. The only downfall for me was the cold/white light leaking through the top floor where a stand was installed. It clashed with the warm lights inside the Palm Court. Again a big thanks for Myriam & Jeffrey (I hope the spelling is accurate, it was a quick glance at their name tags.
