Food: I've gone back to Lady Mendl's every year for 4 years now. I've gone with my fiancee. I've gone with my girlfriends. I've gone with my mother. It's elegant, the food is delicious, the service is attentive. Out of 39 tearooms visited so far, this is one of my favorite 2. Will find any excuse to visit here! Worth a trip for any occasion, big or small. |

Food: Despite us having a reservation, we had to wait forever for our table. Waited another 20 minutes for our waitress to take our order! service was terribly slow, food not up to par. This place came at the recommendation of our hotel concierge, and we told him to think twice about recommending it again. Poor service and high prices do not do well in my book, esp in NYC. |

Food:  An update is needed here. Just came back from my fifth annual 'start of holiday season' family visit to Lady Mendl's and sad to say things are slipping a bit. They have expanded and most everything has suffered: chaos of the reception area (it used to be a calm oasis stepping into another world from the frenzy of NYC), late arrival of tea (after second course was completed), skimpy tea sandwiches, and lack of adequate staff (tea not replenished in timely fashion, no-one available for water refills) was a shock after so many good visits. |

Food: I travel around the country and visit tea rooms Lady Mendl's is the most beautiful and has the best food of any place I have ever been. This is a must if anyone is visiting NY. You feel like you are vising a rich aunt from the 1800's that has a beautiful NY townhouse. There is generously portion of tea sandwiches. I had the layered crepe cake that was outstanding. |

Food: This tea room is amazing, I went there with my tea group for our 10th anniversary, and we had an awesome time. The food, the ambience, the music, the service, everything made us feel like we were transported back to 19th c, NYC, with sweeping gowns, the flutter of fans, 'Your carriage has arrived, ma'am' Just wonderful. This surpases some of the fine hotels I've visited for tea. |

Food: Lady Mendl's is wonderful! I hosted a tea to start of my best friend's bachelorette at Lady Mendl's in the summer of 2008 and it was a wonderful afternoon! |
